"Call!"
When Zhang Xuezhou awoke from the B13 laboratory, his mind was still somewhat hazy.
He has been going through a lot of intense stress recently, and he needs some adjustment to switch back to the real world.
The risks involved in adventure are not surprising; he has taken many adventures over the years, and they are not necessarily difficult to bear just because they involve higher-level adventures.
However, the combination of adventure and a large amount of content was becoming too much for Zhang Xuezhou to handle.
He tidied up briefly, then took out paper and pen and wrote down the Book of Changes, the Lianshan Classic, the Guizang Classic, the Daoist Classic, the Zhuangzi Classic, and the Mozi Classic.
The innate chaotic spiritual object was a benefit that Zhang Xuezhou obtained, and he also found the content of the destiny theory explained by Li Shaojun and Gongsun Zhang Xuezhou interesting.
As for "Mozi," it was something Zhang Xuezhou obtained in the Mohists's Mechanical City. It involves the theory of spacetime, which helps Zhang Xuezhou understand time travel and Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon.
Zhang Xuezhou also acquired the Jade Purity True Technique and the Upper Purity True Technique. He mastered the Upper Purity True Technique in one go, but only knew the theory of the Jade Purity True Technique and had not yet put it into practice.
Compared to Li Guang's straightforward and easy-to-understand explanations, Li Shaojun's content is profound, obscure, and difficult to comprehend, requiring Zhang Xuezhou to ponder it in order to possibly master it.
However, Zhang Xuezhou is not in a hurry to decide whether he understands Technique Method or not. After all, he has reached the Divine Ability Realm in reality and lacks guidance in his cultivation. It would be extremely difficult for him to reach the Sole Self Realm. He will focus on gene development and the proficiency of Technique Method, and will have some time to review his Technique Method.
"Hey, Mom... yes, I'm perfectly sober... hahaha!"
After the call was connected, Zhang Xuezhou listened for a while before awkwardly chuckling and making excuses.
He was so busy reviewing the events that his mind didn't really return to the many things in the real world.
It wasn't until Song Fengying reminded him that Zhang Xuezhou remembered Huang Daoxian, Dongshan in Western Capital City, and the Pan'an sinkhole that needed to be broadcast live.
Time doesn't stop just because he's gone; twelve days is enough time for everything to change.
Zhang Xuezhou had no time to concern himself with what Huang Daoxian had done, or what Zhou Rihui and the others had done; in short, he had to go to Pan'an to check on the situation.
"Don't worry, we'll discuss and arrange a good script, and then ensure it's effective for broadcast and satisfies other people's curiosity!"
What do I have to make a script?
"Anything I bring from North Rehe will fit the script perfectly!"
Zhang Xuezhou agreed to Song Fengying's request.
He wasn't just bragging.
Ninety-nine percent of the live-streaming audience are ordinary middle-class viewers who are wealthy but lack access to high-level information.
Even if Zhang Xuezhou brought a tamed beast with him, he could still create a certain amount of live-streaming effect.
Of course, for Zhang Xuezhou, the live broadcast effect was only to satisfy Song Fengying's requirements. He also remained wary of the Pan'an Tiankeng and sought more security guarantees.
This prompted him to quickly call Wang Haoran.
"What a coincidence, I'm actually here in Luo'an Province, and I've given a good beating to a few disobedient brats these past few days!"
Zhang Xuezhou's first target for external influence was undoubtedly Wang Haoran. Firstly, Wang Haoran was of a higher rank, and secondly, Wang Haoran was older and had more experience with people and affairs, making domestic affairs much simpler for him than for these younger people.
"The young people here in Luo'an Province are quite capable, only slightly less so than those in Western Capital City. These brats almost gave me a good thrashing!"
The conversation between Wang Haoran and Zhang Xuezhou was quite casual, and Wang Haoran didn't mind talking about his experiences in Luo'an Province.
From being disabled to becoming healthy, Wang Haoran and Zhang Xuezhou are deeply bound together, having already established a very stable alliance.
When Zhang Xuezhou invited him to speak, Wang Haoran immediately agreed.
"I've been feeling a bit stressed out these past few days, so going out with you to clear my head is a good idea!"
During the communication, he didn't ask Zhang Xuezhou about anything, but directly agreed and was able to mobilize the necessary resources within his capabilities.
"Then I'll come see you in the next couple of days," Zhang Xuezhou said.
With someone readily available to handle matters, Song Fengying's affairs properly arranged, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but send inquiry messages to Zhang Manqian and Ren Anran, and also sent a follow-up message to Turkalando.
"Brother Zhang!"
By the time Zhang Xuezhou had warmed up the black-boned chicken fast food stored in the freezer, several people had already started peeking into his restaurant.
During the days that Zhang Xuezhou was traveling between worlds, Zhou Tianhao and the others were extremely anxious. Zhou Tianhao even paid attention to Zhang Xuezhou's health for the first time, fearing that Zhang Xuezhou might fall into a deep sleep and never wake up again.
"What's up, did you exchange information?"
Zhou Tianhao and the others did not wait in advance, nor did they try to find him when he was awake. Instead, they roughly estimated the time it would take for him to regain consciousness and waited until Zhang Xuezhou entered the restaurant before coming over.
Seeing Zhou Tianhao wasn't surprising, nor was seeing Zhou Rihui and Zhou Yueyan. What surprised Zhang Xuezhou was that Zuo Teng and Zuo Denggao had both come.
He asked Zhou Tianhao a question, which made Zhou Tianhao shake his head repeatedly, while Zuo Teng looked on with slight doubt.
"You actually kept something from us, Tianhao, you're not being honest," Zuo Teng complained to Zhou Tianhao.
"You two brothers being so loving can't be anything good," Zhou Tianhao shook his head repeatedly. "Even one of you gives me a headache, what would happen if the two of you came together!"
"Why are you so worried about us when we're so weak?" Zuo Denggao asked suspiciously.
"Zuo Teng used to fool me, and it took me half a year to realize it," Zhou Tianhao waved his hand and said; "My intellectual deficiency isn't something that just happened overnight, and there's nothing I can't say!"
What nonsense are you spouting?!
Zuo Teng glanced at Zhou Tianhao, feeling that the guy's tongue twisters were giving him a headache.
But Zuo Teng couldn't worry about Zhou Tianhao right now; he had limited connections in Western Capital City.
There's a high chance that Zhang Xuezhou can accomplish what Zhou Tianhao couldn't.
Especially with Ren Yisheng's original team joining the Sequence Committee, Zhang Xuezhou has a significant advantage among the higher-ups, making things much easier for him compared to these spoiled rich kids.
"We followed him to the Imperial Mausoleum in Dongshan and heard him mention Ba'erbo, Ba'erpo, the Lord, and Luo Zhong. There's also an audio recording. Would you like to participate in the investigation?"
Zuo Teng didn't bother to find out what Zhou Tianhao was hiding. He spoke first, mentioning the anomaly he had discovered, and directly sought help from Zhang Xuezhou.
"Dongshan?"
Zhang Xuezhou originally wanted Zuo Teng to take it easy, since his mother's matter was more urgent.
But when he heard Zuo Teng mention Zuo Quan's trip to Dongshan and even recount some details, he couldn't help but take it more seriously.
With Zuo Quan now under surveillance by Zuo Teng and others in Western Capital City, and with Chang Kongyinghao and others preparing behind the scenes, it would be difficult for Zuo Quan to instigate any large-scale disturbances again.
As long as the opponent's strength wasn't the crazy evolution type like Presenel, Zhang Xuezhou would let them do whatever they wanted. After all, the people of Western Capital City weren't pushovers, and they wouldn't repeat the same mistakes, especially when there was already suspicion.
However, Zuo Teng's mention of the Dongshan Imperial Mausoleum happened to coincide with Zhang Xuezhou's needs.
He also hoped that the Dongshan Imperial Mausoleum would promote the development of martial arts, and if there were any shady dealings involved, he would undoubtedly be very upset.
