Wish Upon a Meteor! (Extra Chapter for Alliance Leader Caiwei)

"I've heard that Wenzhou City has a lot of snacks and delicious food. I'll go there then, eat my fill, and then return to the Empty Thieves' Sect," Daoist Cloudmist thought to himself.

After being sealed away for two hundred years, he felt that this era was truly a time to enjoy life!

There's the internet, cinemas, theaters—all sorts of novel ways to have fun. Even the ancient imperial family didn't enjoy life as much as people did now—of course, provided you had enough money!

The only drawback is the severe environmental pollution caused by technological development. But that's alright; this harsh environment is nothing to cultivators.

Daoist Cloudmist a powerful figure who has already condensed his Golden Core. Even if the environment on Earth were a hundred times worse, it wouldn't be able to harm him.

Therefore, whether it's roadside snacks, fried food, or all kinds of junk food, as long as it looks good and tastes great, Daoist Cloudmist will eat to his heart's content.

Viruses and such... won't affect him.

For example, after eating fifty skewers of grilled lamb last time, Cloudmist Sanren felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach, but his body reacted automatically and easily neutralized the toxins that had invaded his body.

To be honest, even with his current constitution, eating that made his stomach feel slightly uncomfortable, so what exactly were those roasted lamb skewers?

But the taste was amazing! Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. I definitely want to try it again next time I have the chance!

"Let's go, let's see what good food and fun things there are in Wenzhou City!" Daoist Cloudmist cheerfully raised his sword and flew towards Wenzhou City in a flash.

As they flew, Cloudmist Sanren suddenly frowned.

"Strange, why do I feel a sense of crisis above my head again? And it's getting heavier and heavier," Cloudmist Sanren muttered to himself.

"Was it because of the way you got out of bed this morning, or was it because of the way you took a shower yesterday?"

The Daoist Cloudmist was no stranger to this sense of crisis. Ever since he emerged from the 'Five-Finger Mountain Sealing Art,' he had vaguely sensed an ominous sign above his head.

He initially thought it was some kind of trap or backup plan left by the True Lord Yellow Mountain, and tried many ways to resolve it, but to no avail.

Yesterday, this ominous sign suddenly disappeared.

But now, why has this ominous sign appeared again?

"What the hell is this thing? Even if I'm going to die, I'd better just die a quick death," Daoist Cloudmist thought to himself.

After a moment of silence, Daoist Cloudmist gritted his teeth.

Safety is paramount. The plan to visit Wenzhou City is cancelled. We will go directly through Wenzhou City and return to the Empty Thieves' Sect.

Once we return to the sect, with the sect's great formation protecting us, we have nothing to fear, no matter what ominous signs we encounter!

***************************

On a highway leading to Wenzhou City.

Boom boom boom... Thud thud thud...

The tractor continued to roar, Song Shuhang gripped the handlebars with both hands, his whole body vibrating with the tractor's movement. He... was having a blast driving it!

Actually, driving a hand tractor is surprisingly fun when no one can see you.

The heavy front of the car, the jolt it made when it started, just as Venerable White had said before—it felt great to handle.

Especially when this hand-operated tractor is speeding at 100 or even 150 miles per hour, the feeling is simply amazing. It's addictive; once you start driving it, you'll want to keep driving it!

"Ah, Senior White, we'll be in Wenzhou City in about half an hour, and then we'll soon be on White Whale Road, which is my home," Song Shuhang said to Venerable White.

He was afraid that Senior White might suddenly get bored and lose focus, which would be troublesome, so he often tried to find topics to chat with Venerable White along the way.

But this time, they didn't receive a response from Senior White for a long time.

Song Shuhang quickly turned his head and glanced over, only to find that Senior White had his eyes closed and was curled up in a ball.

Asleep?

Could it be that he used up a lot of spiritual energy treating his own and Instructor Little Li's injuries this morning, and that's why he's exhausted?

Or perhaps...

Song Shuhang slowly slowed down the tractor and parked it on the side of the road.

Then, he reached out and waved his hand in front of Senior White.

Venerable White still showed no reaction—he wasn't breathing, or rather, he wasn't. Because at Senior White's level, breathing was no longer necessary.

Song Shuhang thought for a moment, then took something out of his pocket. It was a small flute, named 'Thousand-Mile Voice Flute', which was given to him by True Lord Yellow Mountain when he welcomed Venerable White out of seclusion.

With this item, we can contact Venerable White.

He tried playing the 'Thousand-Mile Voice Flute'.

Soon, Senior White's soft voice came from the small flute.

"Buzz... Hello."

Song Shuhang glanced at Venerable White and saw that he remained motionless and unresponsive. He had already guessed the possibility.

"Buzz... Hello, this is 'A-White's' seclusion location. There are still 2 days, 3 hours, and 2 quarters left until the end of this seclusion. Please wait patiently." The voice of Venerable White continued to reply through the Thousand-Mile Voice Flute.

Yes, Senior White has gone into seclusion.

The Retreat Maniac Venerable White, found himself with nothing to do while sitting in the car. With nothing to do, he decided to go into seclusion. How long should he stay? Since he was going to seclude himself anyway, he decided to start with a two-day retreat.

So, Venerable White secluded himself for more than two days.

Song Shuhang rubbed his forehead.

Senior, you seem to spend less time in seclusion!

How am I supposed to care for you after I take you home, looking like this?

If Senior White's seclusion was only for half a day, Song Shuhang could have said, "My friend is tired from his journey, so he's going to sleep now. Let him get some rest."

But how could he explain this to Dad Song. and Mom Song after more than two days of seclusion?

My good friend is a natural sleeper; he can sleep for two days straight. Don't worry about that, right?

Don't be so reassured! Who could possibly sleep for two days straight? A vegetable, for crying out loud!

At that time, Dad Song would be worried to death and would immediately send Venerable White to the hospital.

"What should I do? Maybe I should find a hotel near my home and settle Senior White in there first?" Song Shuhang thought to himself.

But he rejected the idea as soon as it came to mind.

Are you kidding me? Leaving Senior White alone at the hotel?

Then, if Senior White is in seclusion, and that 'True Illusion' of the great desert unfolds, everyone in the inn will be tortured to death by the Young Man in Blue, and someone will die!

Even without activating the 'True Illusion', given Senior White's handsome appearance and charm, it's possible that the moment someone leaves Venerable White at the hotel, a bunch of rich guys will drive up with burly Senior White and snatch him away.

That's really hard to say. There are precedents for it!

When they welcomed Venerable White out of seclusion, those few nouveau riche almost fought tooth and nail over Venerable White's statue.

"Alright, let's take them back to our own home first. Then we'll find Doudou and the little monk, and have Doudou set up a protective barrier for my room." Song Shuhang rubbed his temples.

As for how to explain it to Dad Song. and Mom Song —we'll just have to wait and see. Things will work themselves out!

If all else fails, just introduce Venerable White as a vegetable.

With a heavy sigh, Song Shuhang returned to the tractor driver's seat, preparing to start the tractor.

The roar of the tractor resumed, and black smoke billowed out...

Just as Song Shuhang was about to start the tractor, a beautiful shooting star streaked across the sky.

Even during the day, the meteor was still bright and dazzling.

"A shooting star?"

Song Shuhang closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, and spoke rapidly, "I hope Su Clan’s Sixteen is in good health, and I hope that the memory problems of Senior Northern River, Senior Three Waves, and Senior Ancient River Temple can also be resolved!"

As he said this, he secretly opened his eyes and looked at the shooting star. The shooting star was still streaking across the sky, and it was quite long, enough to make another wish.

"I hope this trip home with Senior White goes smoothly and doesn't cause any trouble. I also hope Doudou and the little monk will stop causing trouble and behave themselves!"

As he said this, he quietly opened his eyes again. The shooting star was still flying, and it was getting brighter and brighter.

"My last wish is that my spiritual path will be smoother, and that I will have good luck! Oh yeah!"

Making a wish upon a shooting star was something the old Song Shuhang would never have done—he didn't believe in that kind of thing back then.

Even now, he doesn't believe in that stuff anymore!

But ever since he came into contact with the realities of the Cultivator World, he felt that 'Fortune' was truly a mysterious thing. After all, he had a Senior White with bizarre luck right beside him!

Making a wish upon a shooting star may seem silly, but it gives you peace of mind.

If you have a good mindset, your luck might improve as well.

After making all his wishes, Song Shuhang opened his eyes again and looked at the shooting star.

Am I just imagining things? Why is this shooting star getting brighter and bigger?

Holy crap, that meteor is hurtling towards me!

Song Shuhang felt a slight swelling in his bladder—a scene immediately flashed through his mind, a scene he had almost forgotten.

That day, he was being hunted down by Helm Master Jing Mo Limitless Demon Sect. He used the "Myriad-Mile Escape Technique" and flew to Venerable White's side while being hit by the Cold Flame Sword.

Later, I witnessed with my own eyes how Daoist Cloudmist broke free from the 'Five-Finger Mountain Sealing Art'.

At that time, Venerable White suddenly started talking to True Lord Yellow Mountain about a Heavenly Meteorite, which was said to make it easier for First-Grade Cultivator stayed by the stone to Aperture Opening.

Finally, Senior White casually remarked, "If Shuhang could obtain such a rare stone..."

Song Shuhang was terrified at that moment.

He was terrified that one day a meteorite might suddenly fall from the sky and land on him.

He remained Vigilance for the next few days.

Fortunately, the pretense of Senior White was just a casual remark, and those words did not become a 'blessing from Venerable White '. He passed through several days peacefully.

So, gradually, he stopped taking it to heart.

However, what was bound to happen eventually did.

The meteorite still hurtled towards him.

Song Shuhang sighed, staring intently at the meteorite, calculating in his mind where it might hit... Now that he had discovered the meteorite, he could avoid it.

If all else fails, we can always hide next to Senior White. Even if Venerable White is in seclusion, his instinctive protective spiritual energy should be enough to stop this meteorite, right?
