Chapter 40 Yunchuan
Chapter 40 Yunchuan
As they spoke, the two walked to the airship outside the Bureau of Political and Business Affairs.
"Since we have some free time today, and my Qi and Blood stats have surged, while you've become a Divine Sense Master, how about we go to the Virtual Experience Center and have a couple of rounds?"
"All right."
Chen Lie agreed to Wang Hui's suggestion, saying it would be a way to reminisce about the past.
"Let's hop on the airship and head to the experience center!"
With that, Wang Hui and Chen Lie boarded the airship and headed towards the nearest virtual experience center.
The airship was extremely fast, and in just a few minutes it arrived outside a virtual experience center.
After leaving the experience center, Chen Lie and Wang Hui went to the front desk and immediately recharged two thousand star coins.
"Let's go, let's start, I'll go first, Chen Lie."
After topping up his account, Wang Hui immediately chose one of the most popular attractions in the virtual experience center to try.
Virtual reality experience centers are one of the most popular entertainment options for young people on Earth. They connect with the nervous system, allowing people to experience things like space travel, deep-sea exploration, and alien beast battles in a very realistic way, and they are easy to become addicted to.
Parents on Earth are often afraid that their children will become distracted by frivolous activities, so they usually strictly control the number of times their children visit virtual experience centers.
In his previous life, Chen Lie, while not to the point of neglecting his duties for entertainment, did find that some of the exciting attractions in the virtual reality experience center did indeed affect his martial arts training time.
But now, he accompanied Wang Hui to experience the virtual experience center's projects, yet he felt no sense of novelty whatsoever.
Seeing his friend Wang Hui's excited expression, Chen Lie knew that he was completely immersed in the virtual project.
If his understanding is still stuck in this time of his previous life, then he would definitely want to play in the virtual experience center until dark.
Because he entered the elite class, his Qi and Blood value broke through to double digits, and he even awakened his Divine Sense, becoming a Divine Sense Master. His future is promising.
But he knew how insignificant he was in this star field where martial arts were barren, perhaps not even as small as a speck of dust.
After spending half a day at the experience center, Wang Hui reluctantly left with Chen Lie.
Sitting on the airship, Wang Hui said, "Chen Lie, my cousin and I will go straight to your house tomorrow morning, and we'll head to Yunnan Province."
"Did your cousin agree?"
"His promotion at Riyue Group is all because of you. How can you refuse such a small thing?"
"Okay, just wait for me outside my house tomorrow, don't come inside."
"understood."
After arriving at Chen Lie's house, Wang Hui landed the airship, let Chen Lie off, and then piloted the airship away himself.
Chen Lie returned home and saw his mother, Feng Yuelan, already cooking in the kitchen, so he went to the kitchen as well.
"Mom, I'm going out tomorrow."
Feng Yuelan turned to look at Chen Lie and asked, "Going out? Where are you going?"
"Let's go to Yunchuan."
"What are you going to Yunchuan for?"
"Something came up, but don't worry, I'm not going to Yunchuan by myself, but with my classmate Wang Hui and his cousin."
"Wang Hui's cousin, Meng Jing, is already an adult, and his child is almost as big as Yao Yao," Chen Lie said.
Feng Yuelan thought for a moment and said, "Alright then, how long will you be gone?"
"It's still uncertain. They might be back that day, or it might take two or three days."
"Then go ahead, do you want me to give you some money?"
Because her son's health had recently improved and he had successfully entered the elite class, Feng Yuelan gave Chen Lie a great deal of freedom.
As long as it's not too excessive, she approves it all.
"No need, I still have money."
"Your dad also works in Yunchuan. I remember you went there once a few years ago."
"It's the Lingfeng Group in Yunnan Province. If you encounter any trouble there, just contact your dad, or you can call him and ask him to come find you," Feng Yuelan said.
"Okay, I understand."
During dinner, Chen Xingyao sat at the table and asked Chen Lie, "Brother, you just told Mom you were going to Yunnan Province? Are you going to see Dad?"
Chen Lie shook his head and said, "No, I went to Yunchuan because I had some business to take care of."
"Could you go to Dad's and bring something back for me?"
"What is it?"
"My dad bought me a set of D-level martial arts 'Breaking Void Fist Crystal Cards' over there. He planned to give them to me when he came back next time, but I wasn't in a hurry."
However, I recently discovered that I have largely mastered the Void-Piercing Fist technique, and I've reached the point where I can use the 'Void-Piercing Fist Crystal Card'.
Chen Lie nodded and said, "Okay, I'll bring it back for you later."
After finishing his meal, Chen Lie returned to his room.
He spent another night cultivating the "Lingguang Divine Refinement Chapter".
At dawn the next day, the first star of the second constellation of the Seven Mansions in Chen Lie's sea of consciousness, the Ghost Mansion, finally shone with dazzling light.
This signifies that his "Lingguang Divine Refinement Chapter" has reached a new stage.
At that moment, the communicator next to Chen Lie rang.
Chen Lie reached out and picked it up, then held it directly to his ear to answer.
Wang Hui's voice came through the communicator.
"Chen Lie, we've arrived! We're right outside your house, come quick!"
"I'll be there soon."
After saying that, Chen Lie put away the communicator, went to the bathroom to wash his face, and then left the house.
As soon as he stepped out of his house, he saw an airship not far away.
Upon seeing Chen Lie appear, the two people on the airship immediately disembarked.
The man in the lead stepped in front of Wang Hui and said to Chen Lie, "Mr. Chen, thank you so much."
Not only did you save my job at Riyue Group, but you even got me promoted to deputy manager.
This person is Meng Jing, Wang Hui's cousin who is twenty years older than him.
Faced with Wang Hui's gratitude, Chen Lie simply waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, no need to thank me."
Besides, you got into trouble because of my wanting to buy monster meat.
"That's different." Meng Jing shook his head, then added, "Let's go into the airship first."
After all, the Divine Sense Masters Association of Yunnan Province is nearly a thousand kilometers away from where we are.
"it is good."
And so, Chen Lie, Wang Hui, and Meng Jing boarded the airship.
Meng Jing piloted the airship, sitting at the very front, while Chen Lie and Wang Hui sat behind.
"Mr. Chen has become a spiritual master at such a young age; he must have a bright future ahead of him."
Mencius praised it from the front.
Chen Lie said, "Cousin Meng has worked at Riyao Group for so long, so he has naturally come into contact with all sorts of people. I wonder how much you know about Divine Sense Masters? Approximately how many Divine Sense Masters are there in Dongchuan Province?"
Meng Jing shook his head repeatedly: "I really don't know, because this is not a level I can access."
Despite my advanced age, I've never seen a living Divine Sense Master.
If it weren't for this incident, I wouldn't have known that the group's CEO, Mr. Zhao, was actually a spiritualist.
However, I heard from people in the group that General Manager Zhao speaks highly of you, so Mr. Chen, you must be among the top-tier Divine Sense Masters.
Chen Lie nodded and said, "Cousin Meng, you can just call me Chen Lie."
"Is this... appropriate?"
Meng Jing's more than ten years of experience working at Riyue Group gave him a profound understanding of the rigid social hierarchy.
Humility and courtesy in front of important figures have become his instinct. Chen Lie treats Zhao Jinglan as an equal and is also a Divine Sense Master. Even if he is not an important figure, he will definitely become one in the future.
"What's inappropriate about it?"
Wang Hui also said, "That's right, cousin, don't be so reserved. Chen Lie just got lucky and met a master who taught him spiritual cultivation. Other than that, he's no different from me."
Just treat him the same way you treat me.
In Meng Jing's view, Chen Lie's composure in his words and actions was something that ordinary teenagers could not possess. To say that he was no different from Wang Hui, who was rude and unruly, would be pure nonsense.
"Well... okay."
After taking off, the airship began its high-speed flight.
The fastest speed of an airship is 1000 kilometers per hour, but few people dare to make it go that fast. Most people make it fly at four or five hundred kilometers per hour. Meng Jing was just like most people, driving his airship at four or five hundred kilometers per hour.
"Cousin, I've heard that Yunchuan is much more prosperous than our Dongchuan. You spent some time in Yunchuan when you were young. What did you think of the virtual reality experience center there?"
The airship had been flying for nearly an hour. Seeing that Chen Lie and Meng Jing were not saying anything, Wang Hui, feeling bored, asked a question.
Meng Jing said, "The prosperity of Yunchuan Province refers to its prosperity in martial arts. Virtual experience centers are no different from those around the world."
"How prosperous is Yunchuan martial arts? How much more prosperous can it be than our Dongchuan?" Wang Hui retorted.
"Of the three provinces in Sichuan, Yunnan is the most outstanding. Haven't you heard this saying before?"
In our three provinces of central Sichuan—Yunchuan, Dongchuan, and Xichuan—the martial arts scene in Dongchuan and Xichuan is not very good; we're practically brothers in misfortune.
However, the martial arts of Yunnan Province far surpass those of the eastern and western parts of Sichuan.
Let me put it this way: in Dongchuan Province and Xichuan Province, the standard for elite classes at Wukepu High School is 3 cards, while in Yunchuan, the standard for elite students is 5 cards.
Based on this alone, you should be able to understand the differences between the three provinces in central Sichuan, right?
Meng Jing piloted the airship while explaining things to Wang Hui.
"So it turns out that the martial arts students in Yunchuan are so unlucky that they have to wait until their Qi and Blood value exceeds 5 before they can enter the elite class."
If I were from Yunchuan, I would definitely transfer to Dongchuan to study.
Wang Hui couldn't help but say.
"You little brat, if your dad hears you say that, he'll definitely slap you across the face."
"The martial arts high school in Yunchuan Province has a strong teaching staff, and the average scores of its martial arts students are much higher than those of our Dongchuan students. Only someone out of their mind would transfer to our Dongchuan Province." Meng Jing shook his head.
At that moment, the airship's intelligent computer suddenly played a notification sound.
"Entering the border of Yunnan Province."
"The head of the three rivers, the beautiful Yunchuan River."
Welcome to Yunnan Province!
Upon hearing the notification from the airship's supercomputer, Meng Jing couldn't help but say, "We've crossed the Yunnan-Chuan provincial border and aren't far from the Yunnan-Chuan Divine Sense Master Association."
"No, when did Yun Chuan become the head of the Three Rivers?"
"Can their local large enterprise, Lingfeng Group, compare to our Dongchuan's Riyao Group?" Wang Hui couldn't help but ask.
"The competition between the three provinces in central Sichuan is about martial arts, not economics."
"Furthermore, Yunchuan's Lingfeng Group may not be inferior to our Dongchuan's Riyao Group. Both are behemoth enterprises in the eight provinces of Sichuan and Shaanxi, each with its own strengths," Meng Jing said.
