Chapter

Buzz, buzz, buzz —

A mosquito was relentlessly flying around in the room, trying to suck the blood from Li Wenchuan's body.

Li Wenchuan sat cross-legged, appearing as though he was sleeping. Centered around his body was an invisible force that repelled the mosquito each time it tried to approach within three feet of him.

Again and again, the mosquito persisted but could never get close to Li Wenchuan.

Suddenly, Li Wenchuan opened his eyes and let out a gentle breath.

A white wave of energy, faster than a bullet, instantly smashed the mosquito. The wave hit the wall ten meters away, and with a "bam", a deep hole appeared in the solid concrete wall.

If this energy wave were to hit a person, they would undoubtedly die.

Killing with a breath, this was a method akin to a legend.

However, Li Wenchuan could only sigh, "The state of divinity is hard to attain, as difficult as climbing to the heavens."

He was in a state of seclusion, striving to advance higher. Once he reached the divine realm, he could transcend mortality, fly through the sky, burrow into the earth, and wander the world freely.

In a split second, he could decide the life or death of a person, a method far superior to killing with a breath.

Ding —

The ringtone of his mobile phone resounded.

Li Wenchuan checked it and found an email.

"Li Wenchuan, It's me, Chen Fan. Man, you've disappeared for three years, and your phone's been unreachable. I had no choice but to send you an email. Our high school senior year class reunion is coming up, will you be attending?"

"Lin Xiao ran into some trouble, we're brothers after all. Do you remember his words? After the reunion, let's go see him together."

"By the way, I heard that Dream Kite is coming too."

Upon reading the email, Li Wenchang fell silent.

Three years?

It's been much longer than that!

A year in the world, a hundred years in Kunlun.

He spent three hundred years practicing in Kunlun, isolated from the world, much of his past had faded from his memory. This email, though, brought back a flood of memories...

Chen Fan, Lin Xiao, they were his roommates when they were at school and they were close.

Lin Xiao even once took a knife for him.

Dream Kite, his ex-girlfriend. Their relationship didn't end because of a break in affection.

It ended because of various external interferences.

Dream Kite's family background, status, identity, all at one point were beyond the grasp of Li Wenchang.

He thought he had let go of everything. But the arrival of this email stirred some waves in his still heart.

"It seems that I am still tied to the mortal world, still haven't fully cleansed my senses, that's why I struggle to enter the realm of God. If so, these ties of the human world, it's time for a closure."

Upon this thought, Li Wenchang replied with one word, "Okay."

Capital City.

Inside a walled compound of crimson walls and yellow tiles, armed guards incessantly patrol around. Three steps per post, five steps per sentry—security measures are strict, a sign that those who reside here are truly the cream of the crop, the high-ranking and distinguished.

Several top-ranking officials are gathered together, discussing Li Wenchuan.

"Li Wenchuan has left Kunlun."

"Going against the prohibition through martial arts, his integration into society this time, is it for better or worse?"

A relatively young top-ranking official voiced his concern, "He's achieved the Supreme Golden Body, impervious to blades and fire, not even a bomb can kill him. Once he goes berserk, who in the nation can stop him?"

"We shouldn’t think like that. Li Wenchuan holding fort in Kunlun fends off the disaster there. His great meritorious deeds for our nation can't be ignored, he is a valuable asset to our country. Rather than fearing and defending against him, the state should respect him and show goodwill. I believe in his character—he won’t do anything to harm the nation. "

"I agree with Senior Official Qin's statement. His kind of person, we must try to bring over to our side, and absolutely not offend. The chaos in Kunlun is currently kept at bay. During this period, there's no pressure. If he wants to join society, let him be. No matter what he needs, we should try to meet his demands."

"Meet all his demands? If he takes a fancy to a woman, even if she's someone else's wife, should we hand her over to him? Or if he makes outrageous demands, asking for billions, should we comply?" The young top-ranking official still expresses worries.

Senior Official Qin sighs, "If he harbored such desires, it would be a good thing, as people with desires are easier to control. But I've met him, and I fear he's already detached from worldly matters. Wealth, power—they are but fleeting clouds to him. He wouldn’t want those.

Even if my position was offered to him, he wouldn’t bat an eyelid. His temperament is already halfway to that of an immortal. I do hope that during his integration into society this time, he could develop more attachments. A person with attachments is less frightening.

He's planning to return to Lin'an City. I should find someone to see him off."

...

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh —

On the high-speed road, traffic speeds along.

Li Wenchuan sat in the back seat of a Mercedes-Maybach, the seat soft and comfortable, providing a sense of encapsulation.

The positioning of this type of car is meant for passengers, with emphasis on the comfort of the rider.

Many large corporations would specially allocate one such car to ferry VIPs. If one were to drive it themselves, this would not be the type of car to use.

The driver was a girl, Qin Yao, twenty-five years old this year.

Her appearance was cool and aloof, her face exquisitely beautiful. Her hair was tied up high by a white jade hairpin, her neck slender and graceful, and she wore a tight-fitted skirt.

She was the kind of woman that would let people's thoughts run wild with just one glance.

The car was very quiet, neither of them spoke.

While Qin Yao was driving at a speed exceeding 150 km/h, the car was still steady with no shaking, showing her excellent driving skills.

At the same time, she was also quietly observing Li Wenchuan through the rearview mirror.

Li Wenchuan seemed younger than her, around twenty years old, very handsome and eye-catching. More importantly, he carried an unusually ethereal aura.

As for Li Wenchuan, she knew very little about him.

Her family elder only called her to ferry a young man, saying that this young man was important, a national treasure, a contemporary legend, and asked her to treat him well.

"A national treasure, a contemporary legend, is he some kind of scientist who has developed a high-tech innovation?"

Qin Yao was full of doubts.

She was oblivious to the matters of Kunlun, a state secret. Even if her family was high-ranking in the nation, as a junior, she did not have the privilege of knowing.

At present, the government is being secretive about the Kunlun matter, unwilling to disclose it for fear of causing major chaos.

"Drive carefully, don't get distracted."

Li Wenchan kept his eyes closed. He wasn't looking at Qin Yao, but he knew she was watching him distractedly.

"Young Mr. Li, your airs are quite high. Since you got in the car, you haven't even opened your eyes to look at me. How do you know I'm distracted?"

Qin Yao snorted lightly, somewhat unhappy.

She felt that Li Wenchan didn't show her enough respect. Did he really see her as just a driver?

She was the Missy of the Qin family, a top-tier family at the power center of the nation. In the capital, many people would bow and scrape when they saw her. Who dared talk to her like this?

In her heart, she started to doubt Li Wenchan's identity.

The old master Qin said that Li Wenchan was a modern myth, a weapon of the nation. But how could such a young man earn these eight words of appraisal?

Could it be... a trick to set her up on a blind date?

Very likely!

She was now twenty-five years old, and her family was constantly urging her and arranging marriages for her. Many top-tier second generations were chasing her. However, her pride was too high, and she couldn't see eye to eye with anyone. All the arranged marriages at home were rejected by her.

What made her suspicious was that when she came to pick up Li Wenchan, the old master specifically urged her to dress up sexily and beautifully.

She didn't think much about it at that time, assuming it was really an important person, so she dressed up elaborately.

"Humph, the old master must have wanted to trick me into a blind date in this way. How foolish I was to be fooled."

As she blamed herself, her face darkened, frosty cold, she interrogated, "Li Wenchan, right? Your surname is Li, a member of the Li family, aren't you? What agreement has your Li family reached with my Qin family?"

The Li family, like hers, is a top-tier family in the capital, standing at the political epicenter, ruling upper class for many years.

Intermarriages like theirs are somewhat an unspoken rule among such families.

"I have no idea what you're talking about," was all the calm response that Li Wenchan gave.

"He's still playing dumb." Qin Yao grew increasingly agitated. She would've appreciated Li Wenchan's frankness. She had already seen through him. His stubborn denial only deepened her disdain for him.

At this point, the car slowly came to a halt.

They had arrived at an expressway toll station, where there was a line of cars waiting due to the after-work rush hour.

Beep beep beep beep—

Out of nowhere, a piercing alarm came from behind.

Qin Yao looked back to see a bus, swerving left and right, rushing towards the toll station at a frightening speed.

"This is bad, that bus is out of control!"

Qin Yao looked visibly shocked.

She saw that the bus was packed with people. If it crashed here, the consequences would be unthinkable.

One by one, the car owners queuing at the toll station heard the bus's horn. Realizing something was amiss, they panicked. Some drivers hastily abandoned their cars and ran off, while others tried to smash through the cars in front of them to escape from the toll station.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

The runaway bus was still some distance away, yet the toll booth was already plunged into chaos. Accident after accident piled up, completely blocking the road. Even Qin Yao's Maybach got hit by someone.

"Ordinary people are just like that, easily panicked when things go wrong. They don't realize that in situations like this, the more they need to stay calm to survive." Li Wenchan watched everything happening, gently shaking his head.

"And you're still making sarcastic comments. Do you realize we're doomed?!"

Qin Yao was enraged. The impending tragedy was about to unfold, countless families were about to be shattered, and Li Wenchan was just sitting here, philosophizing.

Even her own life was hanging by a thread now. The bus was charging at such a speed that there was no time to escape.

"I really shouldn't have come to pick you up."

Regret came late. Had she not been here to pick up Li Wenchan, she never would have encountered this disaster.

"Click."

Suddenly, the car door opened. Qin Yao turned her head and found Li Wenchan stepping out of the car.

Under her astonished gaze, Li Wenchan walked towards the oncoming bus and nonchalantly stretched out his hand.

"Are you insane?!"

Qin Yao was horror-struck.

Who did Li Wenchan think he was? Superman?

The next second, she witnessed something that could upend her lifelong perception.

She saw the bus charging towards them at high speed, one that could easily reduce a human to a bloody pulp. When it collided with Li Wenchan's palm, it just stopped abruptly on the spot!

Li Wenchan's body stood unswayed like Mount Tai.

It seemed as if the bus had hit not a person, but a mountain.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang..."

Simultaneously, the ground beneath Li Wenchan started to collapse on a large scale. One meter, two meters, three meters... until, in the end, the soil within a 30-meter radius was all split open and sunken.

This was the art of Diverting the Butterfly and Moving the Stars.

Even if he managed to block the bus, it would still crash and shatter into pieces.

But he transferred all the force of impact from the bus into the ground through his body, allowing the bus to remain intact, with none of the passengers injured.

"The national treasure, the modern-day myth, so this is how it is... so this is how it is..."

Qin Yao's eyes became wide, her petite body trembling uncontrollably.

Comparing Li Wenchan's physique to the bus, it seemed so insignificant, but in her heart, he had become unimaginably colossal.

At that moment, in her eyes, the silhouette of Li Wenchan, unmatched under the heavens!

In this world, she could never find such an outstanding man.
