Chapter 1007 The Type of Boy Mengmeng Likes

“Due to the long distance, it shouldn’t have made a difference. But the Lost Continent is the road connecting the Saint Warrior Planet with the Cultivation World. It’s a relatively important node. Therefore, when you consume the Source of your planet, the source would vibrate. When it comes to this kind of rule, a minimal deviation may result in wide divergence. It’s estimated that there will be nearly a month to go before the trial field opens up. During this period, I prepare to send dozens of gifts to random people. The Way of Heaven is fair. Zhang Hanyang, you can also try to grab some.”
At the end, Yue Wuwei stroke his beard and said with a smile, “I will reboot the passages of the Kunlun Mountain Range. Don’t smash them anymore. If the passages are broken, the great impact will be great. Well, I gotta go. I’m leaving for the King’s Domain to take several days off. My naughty daughter is waiting for me to return.”
Yue Wuwei nonchalantly waved his hand, and a glowing door materialized in front of him.
“By the way, take this. Let me know if you have something tricky that you can’t sort out. Don’t let your wife swat all the time.”
Yue Wuwei shot a hard look at Zhang Han and casually waved. At once, a pale blue pearl the size of a nail flew over.
“Is this a blue crystal communication device?”
Zhang Han took the pearl and eyed Yue Wuwei, who quickly ran across the Light Gate.
“Swoosh!”
Then, the Light Gate slowly melted away.
“He is gone just like that?”
Zhang Guangyou said in a daze, “What the heck are those things he just said?”
“Alas.”
Zhang Mu sighed and touched his forehead. “We, umm, seem to have learned a big secret.”
“I’m a little confused. Han, what’s going on?” Zhang Guangyou asked, his head aching gravely. Because many of those pieces of news had undermined his world outlook.
“To put it simply, there is a very powerful expert who sealed this Saint Warrior Planet and established the Ancient Mine, the Kunlun Immortal World, the King’s Domain, the relics, and other rules. It is because of that figure’s will that the Dark Shadow Clan in the Ancient Mine cannot come up, and the Ancient Mine is full of spiritual herbs while the Kunlun Immortal World is rich in spiritual weapons. Everything here is running in the way that figure has designed.
“Yue Wuwei is the guardian that strong figure has stationed here. He is the ferryman who can take people to the Sea Dragon Star Region. Also, he is in charge of the affairs on the Saint Warrior Planet.
“I guess Zi Yan should know that strong man in her past life. She must have reincarnated and started this life. Her cultivation is also very sophisticated, so she is not subject to the rules on the Saint Warrior Planet.”
Zhang Han explained the situation to them point by point.
“The place called the Saint Warrior Planet is called the Heavenly Taoist Site. It’s perhaps the place where that figure once stayed and comprehended the Way. Now he is not in this world, he must be in a world even more advanced than the Cultivation World. This Taoist site can be ruled by a lord. That is the Heavenly Lord. As Yue Wuwei just said, one has to participate in the trial to be held on the Lost Continent and pass the test to become the Heavenly Lord. Yet, no one succeeded in passing the past eight trials. Obviously, the current Heavenly Lord should be Zi Yan.
“But there should be some benefits to gain on the Lost Continent. Based on the way Yue Wuwei talked about it, the people who are going to go there this time must at least have the strength at the Elixir Realm Last-Stage. But the strength of many of the candidates that he thinks relatively highly of isn’t up to standard. Thus, he’s decided to release some energy from the Source. Well, in the following days, Dad, Grandpa, you can keep an eye on this matter. Maybe you’ll stumble on some valuable treasures and get to take part in the trial. Even if you didn’t get the far-flung title of the Heavenly Lord, it would still be good to improve your strength.”
Hearing the news, the two of them were bereft of speech for a long time.
It took them 10 minutes to come to their senses.
“There is too much information for me to process.”
Zhang Guangyou shook his head to sober up and then said, “That’s to say, we can prepare to seize Yue Wuwei’s gifts and then go to the Lost Continent for trial, right?”
“Yes.”
“But where is the Lost Continent?”
“In the Sea Dragon Star Area,” Zhang Han replied.
“The Sea Dragon Star Area… hahaha, Sea Dragon Star Area, hahaha…” Zhang Mu laughed as he headed toward his villa.
Judging from his state, he would perhaps work harder to cultivate to prepare for the trial.
“These days, I will refine some treasures and medicinal pellets. Dad, distribute the frosty crystal stones you have to everyone. I want them to quickly improve their strength. When the passages to the Kunlun Immortal World reopen, you and grandpa shall take them up there to make breakthroughs.”
Ten percent of the frosty crystal stones they had gained had been given to Deep Flame. Since the frosty crystal stones appeared in the Deep Valley, Zhang Mu was glad to share some with the Deep Valley as the dividend.
As for the remaining 90 percent, Zhang Han pocketed 30 percent and put 30 percent in the Top-grade Crystal Palace. The last 30 percent was handed to Zhang Guangyou. Now, he planned to distribute that 30 percent among all the members as the resource for the first round of collective cultivation.
After getting so many gems, Zhang Han also planned to hone the weapons for all the members. For instance, he could now easily refine Mu Xue’s Demon Dancing Sword into a sixth-tier treasure. He would also like to do the same to the others’ weapons. What was more, he had decided to refine some of the spiritual herbs that he had accumulated over the years into Energy-gathering Magical Pellets and let others take those, so that everyone’s cultivation speed would again pick up by 30 percent.
“There are too many things to do, which can be very time-consuming.”
Zhang Han chuckled. He then held Zi Yan’s tender hand and said, “Let’s go back to the castle.”
“Sure.”
Noticing his scorching eyes, Zi Yan pursed her red lips and sheepishly followed him back to the third floor of the castle.
“Flop.”
Zhang Han flung Zi Yan on the bed and swiftly ripped her clothes off, tossing them on the side.
“Oh, ummm…”
“Moon Empress, how do you feel now?” Zhang Han teased.
“What are you doing?”
In terms of acting skills, Zhang Han was far inferior to Zi Yan. At this moment, Zi Yan’s face was suddenly full of grievance, which made her seem more delicate and charming. In a soft and tender voice, she moaned, “Don’t be like this. Get off me now. I’m Moon Express. How dare you disrespect me?”
Zhang Han was rather speechless at this.
Eventually, he expressed himself with relatively rough actions other than words.
In the First Middle School.
After the morning exercises, two senior students came to the gate of Class 8 in the first grade and looked around the classroom. When they spotted Mengmeng, they abruptly got cold feet and ran to the door. After waiting for quite a while, they stopped a student coming in and said, “Hi, can you do me a favor?”
“What’s the matter?” asked the male student.
“Please give this letter to the girl named Zhang Yumeng in your class.”
“Oh, a love letter? Okay.”
The male student did not look surprised, as though saying this happened a lot. He took the envelope, swaggered into the class, and handed it to Mengmeng. “Hey, another boy is here to give you a love letter. This one doesn’t look very outstanding. He isn’t as handsome as the last one. I think the last one is in the first grade of senior high. Gee, Zhang Yumeng, you are such a catch. Even the boys in senior high are drawn here by your charm.”
“Of course.” Li Muen chuckled. “Our Mengmeng is now a celebrity in the First Middle School. She is very popular on the Internet.”
“It has nothing to do with you whether she is a celebrity or not. Why are you so smug?” the male student countered mercilessly.
After nearly a semester, the students in the class had all known one another well. Those who often played together liked to make fun of each other. It was quite normal.
As they had reached puberty, many of them began to have their own crush. But most of them were too bashful to declare their feelings. As soon as they saw their crush, they blushed and couldn’t speak. Also, since they were in the advanced class, they were told to focus on study. Thus, except for a pair of students who were relatively close, the rest of the students were all single. There were more couples in other classes. They could be easily spotted on campus.
Because of their young age, the feelings the students in the first grade of junior high could have was just a crush.
“Alas, there are so many love letters coming your way every day.”
Bei Jinnan sighed and said, “However, our President Mengmeng never opens any of the letters. Well, Mengmeng, what kind of boy on earth do you like?”
“Umm…”
At this question, Mengmeng’s eyes turned pensive.
“Clatter!”
Bei Jinnan’s heart drummed. He held his breath and concentrated, keeping his ears open for the type of boy that Mengmeng fancied. If he learned the answer, he figured that he could also make himself be more like that type.
Now that his family had forbidden her to pursue Mengmeng, the only way he could date her was to make her pursue him instead. Therefore, he needed to work on this.
Today, Mengmeng was finally going to tell him about her ideal type of boyfriend, so he would definitely listen carefully.
“I like… boys six feet tall,” Mengmeng answered all of a sudden.
Bei Jinnan was staggered.
“She likes boys that tall? That is a too high standard for middle school students! Only a handful of students in the entire First Middle School are six feet tall. And all of them are in the third year of junior high.”
“And he must be very handsome. We’re living in an era that beauty means everything. His face should be chiseled. His figure should be well-proportioned, neither too fat nor too skinny. Also, I’d like him to have short hair and bright eyes.
“And he gotta be exceptionally gentle to me. He would tell me stories, cook for me, and take me to visit various places. He would do whatever I tell him and let me have anything I want in a minute after I make the request. He would particularly adore me and take good care of me.
“But he may not treat others like that. I’d say that he would not be that nice to others.”
After hearing her long speech, Bei Jinnan and several nearby students all felt disoriented.
“Where in the world could you find a boy like that?”
“You’ve even pictured his figure and looks.”
“Exactly!”
Bei Jinnan contemplated silently for moments and found that he didn’t seem to measure up to Mengmeng’s expectations.
“Hey, the person Mengmeng talked about is Uncle Zhang, her father.” Li Muen was very shrewd. After hearing Mengmeng’s description, she immediately knew who she was describing.
“Ah, so you were talking about your father!”
The students burst into laughter.
They protested, “That doesn’t count. How can the description of your father count? It gotta be someone not in your family, like a classmate, a peer of yours. Come on, what kind of boy do you like?”
“Good question!”
Bei Jinnan glanced at the male student who asked the question with appreciation.
However…
“I don’t have a type,” Mengmeng answered straightforwardly.
“Then what kind of boy do you like to play with?” the male student pressed. “Mengmeng, look, I, Beibei, and the others are always playing with you. Aren’t we good friends? Don’t you like boys of our type?”
“Oh, are you asking about the kind of friend I like?” Mengmeng tilted her head slightly and blinked her eyes with playfulness.
“That’s right.”
“Then my answer will be the silly type. You know, the dull-witted and the funny ones.”
“I…”
The boys now knew they’d been defeated. They had no idea what to say next.
Fortunately, the bell rang at this moment, saving them from the embarrassing situation.
Bai Yilin came in with a smile on his face as if some good news had put him in a good mood.
“Boys and girls, I have good news for you. Our Vice President, Dean of Education, and three professors will attend this class as well. They’ll be here in a few minutes. Everyone, I expect you to put your best foot forward. If this class goes well, we will be able to go to the Education Base to perform a lesson. Yes, it’s a performance, the kind with a script. But today, you should improvise. In a moment, everyone should actively participate in this class…”
This was the first challenge that Bai Yilin had faced since he became a lead teacher. He would gain the qualification to be promoted to a senior teacher if he seized this opportunity. This was, of course, good news.
There would always be a lot of interesting things occurring in school. Also, there would always be several humorous and whimsical students in the class who could make everyone laugh.
Mengmeng, who had returned to school, felt as if she had not been to school for too long a time. During the Christmas holiday that just passed, she went to the Kunlun Immortal World twice. Although she merely tagged along, she had finally seen her Daddy’s real strength, her Mummy’s stunning power, and Auntie Xue’s and others’ great force. These trips were certainly worth it.
“The happy time has just begun…”
Mengmeng rested her chin on her hand, her attention wandering until…
“Zhang Yumeng, you answer this question.”
“Huh?”
At noon.
Zhang Han walked out of the castle, appearing vigorous and energetic.
He said in a booming voice, “Those in or above the Heaven Realm, come to the Thunder Yang Tree.”
His voice spread throughout Mount New Moon.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
Numerous people ran out of their villas.
Dong Chen, Zhang Guangyou, Zhang Mu, Zhao Feng, Ah Hu, Liang Hao, Instructor Liu, Jiang Yanlan, and others all scurried over. Adding Wang Xiaowu, Jiang Bing, Yun Feiyang, and those who lived in the Heavenly Knights Sect, more than 100 people responded to Zhang Han’s order.
The Heavenly Knights Sect had indeed changed a lot in the past few years.
Back then, even the Wind Snow School only had about 40 members in the Heaven Realm. And that sect only achieved that because of the plenty of resources accumulated over its long history.
At present, among those living on Mount New Moon alone, there were already more than 100 people in the Heaven Realm, let alone the entire Mount New Moon alliance. Adding the members of the Heavenly Knights Sect, the Shuiyun Sect, and the Luo Fu Sword Sect, the number of those in or above the Heaven Realm there would be comparable to the number of those in the other five worldlets combined.
“Master, what’s the matter? Are we going out to amaze the world?” Mu Xue cheerfully ran to Zhang Han and asked.
“Amaze what?”
Zhang Han didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He glanced at the people present and said, “These days, I will give you some frosty crystal stones. I will also refine a large number of Energy-gathering Magical Pellets for you to cultivate. In a few days, many of you will reach the critical point in cultivation. When that time comes, you can go to the Kunlun Immortal World with my father to make your breakthrough. This is the first thing. The second thing is, if you have a fifth-tier treasure, you can hand it to me. I’ll help you refine your weapon into a sixth-tier treasure.”
“Take mine!”
Mu Xue immediately handed her Demon Dancing Sword to Zhang Han. “Haha, thank you, Master.”
“And this is mine. Thank you, boss.”
“Boss, you’re so generous. Please refine mine, too.”
“…”
In less than a minute, mountains of weapons were piled up in front of Zhang Han. There were at least 80 weapons. Only a small number of those people did not have a fifth-tier treasure yet.
“The third thing is that in a couple of days, some treasures that are extremely good for cultivation may fall from the sky or appear out of nowhere. You’d better go out and look for your own opportunities. You don’t have to stay on the mountain all the time. If you get some treasures, you would be able to participate in a fantastic trial that will be held soon.”
Zhang Han told them the basics about the trial on the Lost Continent that Yue Wuwei had told him.
“I’m not going out. I have to keep an eye on Mengmeng.” Mu Xue curled her lips and shook her head.
To her, no place in the world could enhance her cultivation more than her Master’s place. She firmly believed that her Master was the most heaven-defying cultivator. If there was someone stronger than him, that would be his wife. Therefore, Mu Xue wouldn’t go anywhere else.
“Whatever suits you.”
Zhang Han laughed dryly.
“Mu Xue is really clingy sometimes.
“However, she has a clear-cut stand on who is in her league and who is not. That’s what we have in common. She never pretends to like any outsiders. But the way she treats her own people is completely different.”
Of course, “Her own people” referred to Zhang Han’s family of three.
“Everyone, take the frosty crystal stones and cultivate. You gotta hurry up with your cultivation these days.”
Zhang Mu waved at them.
The crowd immediately dispersed. They all went back to their villa to start cultivating.
“Alas.”
Zhang Mu sighed softly. “It seems that I have to work harder as well. Otherwise, these juniors would catch up with me sooner or later. The joke would be on me then.”
In terms of cultivation, Zhang Mu was also kind of competitive. When he saw these young people all had outstanding talents, he couldn’t help but feel a bit stressed.
After a while, the members all went away. Zhang Han took out the six pellet-refining furnaces that he had looted from the Wind Snow Temple. Each of them was a sixth-tier treasure. Those were quite low-level furnaces. The knowledge of the people in the Kunlun Immortal World in refining pellets turned out to be too superficial.
“Let’s start with refining spiritual weapons first.”
Zhang Han waved his hand.
Zhao Feng’s Dragon-piercing Sword, Mu Xue’s Demon Dancing Sword, Jiang Yanlan’s machete, the Seven Sages’ Broadsword he gave his father, and Dong Chen’s 18 cards rose into the air.
These were the first few treasures he would refine.
“To refine the Demon Dancing Sword, I’ll use three pounds of Evil Bell Stone, some Demon-subduing Pearl, and 19 kinds of fifth-tier gems. That’ll do.
“As for the Dragon-piercing Sword, I’ll use…”
Zhang Han first came up with several different refining plans based on their cultivation methods and combat styles. This way, he could forge weapons that suited them best.
“Crackle!”
Flames rose. When Zhang Han was working hard on refining the materials, Zi Yan strolled out of the castle with a book in her hand. She sat in the pavilion near Zhang Han and cupped her right hand around her face. After watching Zhang Han for a while, she opened the book and quietly began to read. After reading two pages, she looked up at Zhang Han again before focusing on her book again. She repeated that over and over again, enjoying a relaxing afternoon.
Soon, it was almost five o’clock.
“Phew…”
Zhang Han exhaled a long breath and said, “I’m getting rusty with this after all. Otherwise, I could have cut the refining time by half.”
“Are you done?” Zi Yan inquired, a little stunned.
“Yes, I’ve refined five.”
With a stir of his mind, five streams of light flashed out of the furnace and flew to the villas of Zhao Feng and the others.
“Ah, thank you so much, Master! Hahaha!”
The next second, Mu Xue’s surprised laughter rang through the field.
Zhang Han smiled and said, “It’s time to pick up Mengmeng. I’ll continue after dinner. If I can find the feeling, I’ll be done with these rest of the spiritual weapons tomorrow.”
“Oh, then let’s go.”
Zi Yan nodded slightly and went to the side of the castle with Zhang Han. She didn’t even go change. Wearing loose-fitting clothes, she got into the small panda car and headed for Mengmeng’s school.
When Mengmeng came out and saw them, she was still as lively as she always was.
“Mummy, I received 20 love letters today. Those kids all want to hit on me. Humph.”
“Have you read those love letters?” Zhang Han asked casually.
“No, I don’t want to waste my time,” Mengmeng replied from the back seat, swaying her long legs.
“Don’t call them kids. Like you’re not one of them.”
Zi Yan beamed and smoothed Mengmeng’s slightly tangled hair.
“I’m not a kid. I’ve grown up, and I can go on adventures by myself. None of them can do that. Besides, I can also perform the Fireball Skill and the Fire Whip.” Mengmeng pouted at Zi Yan. “Mummy, even you don’t know how to do that. All you can do is wave that flyswatter.”
“That’s the Sea Moon Fan.”
Zi Yan emphasized with embarrassment, “I’ve named it.”
“But it looks like a flyswatter,” Mengmeng added.
“Who said that? It’s obviously a fan.” Zi Yan couldn’t help reaching out her hand and gently pinching Mengmeng’s soft cheek.
“Oh, Mummy, why do you always pinch me? Are you resorting to domestic violence? Daddy, Mummy always picks on me.”
“Well, what else can we do?” Zhang Han immediately replied, “Just put up with it. Didn’t you say that the two of us with the same surname are no match for her, who doesn’t share a surname with us, even if we join hands?”
“Huh?”
Mengmeng was taken aback. After two seconds, she mumbled, “Well, that’s true.”
“What are you talking about? If other people heard this, they would think I’m bullying you two.” Zi Yan rolled her eyes grumpily.
“Hee-hee.”
Mengmeng immediately giggled. She then held Zi Yan’s arm and started to chat with her.
Soon, the two hit it off and came up with the same idea—
They both felt that it had been a long time since they went out shopping. Therefore, they decided to go to the mall on Saturday to buy some new clothes.
