Chapter 37
The journey was nothing but meeting and parting. In just a few days together, they learned about a new world from Zulong, where there was magic, dragons, gods, war and darkness.
The corrosion of evil spirit destroyed the whole world. The main dragon took the world and the last hope and escaped from there, looking for a place where there was no world seed to grow again.
Rong Zhou helped heal all the wounds on his body, dispelled the negative state rooted in his bones, and the erosion of demonic energy. They had a very pleasant time together these days.
It’s just that everyone has their own goals. When they meet, they say hello and then set out on their own path again.
The wound was healed by Zulong, and his momentum was even stronger: "Thank you for healing me. I can continue to drift and search in this void."
He was covered in a black cloak with golden patterns, exuding mysterious ancient characters. The only thing that seemed out of place was the bamboo basket containing a giant egg in his right hand.
"I'm afraid we may never meet again after we part, so this small gift is for your journey. I hope Brother Zulong has a safe journey and finally gets what he wants." It was a small cloth bag, a storage tool in the game that could also be used in reality. He put some medicine and food in it.
"Thank you very much." Perhaps this creature from the Western world is just like Westerners. He didn't hesitate to accept the small cloth bag handed to him by Longzhou. He also took out a few scales from his body. "When I passed through the world barrier, the space storm tore everything on my body apart. My space storage device and weapons are all gone. I don't have any gifts for you. These scales fell from my body. They can be used for alchemy and forging weapons. I give them to you. Please accept them."
The dragon accepted it without hesitation. Rong Zhou thought that this also represented their relationship, that they were friends by default, not just ordinary strangers.
"See you in the new world next time if we have the chance." The giant dragon stepped out of the yellow bamboo gate. The next second, a huge dragon appeared in the void. The turbulence caused by the flapping of its wings was blocked by the small courtyard.
"When that star twinkles, the place you're looking for is right around there. Don't miss it."
The wings flashed twice and it had already flown hundreds of meters. In the distance, a giant dragon roared as a response.
The black figure quickly disappeared into the dark dimensional rift.
"This dragon doesn't look smart. I hope he will take it seriously. If he misses it, he will have to continue wandering in the dimensional rift for hundreds of years." Liu Ze was very worried. He was more concerned about the giant egg. Whether it was its appearance, vitality, or even its life trajectory, the egg was so brilliant and dazzling.
He hoped they would take fewer detours and suffer less. Liu Ze was now a fully grown man, with slightly curly, semi-long hair loosely draped over his shoulders. Standing next to Rong Zhou, they looked identical.
"Everyone has their own destiny. You've already given me an important revelation. Whether you can grasp it or not depends on your destiny. Stop overthinking. Don't you want to wake up that little secret guard?" Rong Zhou had already put Zulong's matter aside. He didn't have any apprentices, so he wasn't sentimental. "You can wake him up, but you have to lead him yourself. You've also been to the ancient world and felt out of place there. He's the same. Let him get used to it and understand."
"Needless to say, I will do it myself." Liu Ze didn't say his little thoughts. Training a top by himself should be a good choice.
Liu Ze found something to do. He taught the man to read and read some books to him every day. The two of them would also practice martial arts together.
Rong Zhou sat at a distance and watched without feeling bored, but he always felt that the way his apprentice and that person got along was a little strange and too intimate.
"Master, can he choose Ling Xue's skills? He used to use chains, which are similar to Ling Xue's blade chains. Should he be able to do it?"
"There's no problem with learning, but he's different from us. These energy conversions are engraved on the soul and body, and using them is like instinct. If he wants to learn, he has to practice every move." Rong Zhou only needs to transmit those skills and moves to him. If he wants to use them proficiently, he must constantly practice these moves until they become instincts.
On this point, Liu Ze never doubted Yan Shiliu's hard work and helped Yan Shiliu make a choice without hesitation.
The big guy behind him followed obediently. Only when he first came over did he greet Rong Zhou politely. He stood behind Liu Ze very stiffly. He was a little afraid of Liu Ze's master.
The doubts that had been weighing on my mind for a long time, of course I had to ask clearly at this time: "What is your relationship? It looks weird."
"Master, didn't I tell you that I like men? This is the partner I chose." Liu Ze leaned back and gently patted Yan Shiliu's cheek with his right hand.
"...Ah?" Rong Zhou was certain his disciple hadn't said that. He even saw the large man behind his disciple lower his head slightly to make the photo more comfortable for his disciple. "Uh, alright. Relationships are your business. As long as you two are happy, that's all. But you two are from two different worlds after all. If he sees more of the world and thinks more, he might change. You should be mentally prepared for that."
Rong Zhou was not trying to pour cold water on his disciples. The conflict between the two worldviews in the old society had caused so many tragedies. Those who had studied abroad insisted on freedom of marriage, while their first wives at home were considered feudal dregs. He did not want his disciples to suffer too much harm in this regard.
Liu Ze was quite calm and had his own thoughts on what might happen in the future: "Even marriages get divorced. When feelings fade, it's normal to separate. At least for now, I like this big, silly guy."
He and his apprentice weren't much older, but their perspectives on love and family were vastly different. If they didn't want a lasting relationship, why put in the effort? "Relationships aren't for fun. Even if you like a man, I hope you take every relationship seriously and don't let him down."
At this time, the big fool was no longer stupid. He wanted to kneel down and swear, but he realized that he was forbidden to kneel down at will. This was a strict order from Xingxing, which made him a little at a loss. He wanted to swear that he would never betray.
Rong Zhou also saw his uneasiness. This person should be the most uneasy about leaving the original world. From what his apprentice said, this person would definitely not be the one most likely to change his mind and propose a breakup.
Apprentices are all debts, and the ancient people whose values are being rebuilt are also pitiful. No matter what, they must be given the capital to settle down and make a living. They said to the ancient people who were still uneasy: "You should also take me as your master. Only when you are independent can you make the right independent choices."
Yan Shiliu heard it, but before his brain could react, the immortal wanted to take him in as his disciple?
Liu Ze slapped him on the back and said, "What are you doing, idiot? Hurry up and become my disciple. You will definitely get some benefits."
Yan Shiliu knelt down obediently and kowtowed three times.
"Get up, Liu Ze is your senior brother from now on. Treat this place like your home. You don't have to follow him in everything. You should have your own opinions."
Rong Zhou said what he said. Whether you understood or not is another matter.
Each positioning anchor point is random. This time they drifted in the dimensional rift for a long time and did not receive any new information.
It was quite lively, and there was a loud bang. Without a second thought, the two people practicing in the yard, Liu Ze, were once again thrown over by Yan Shiliu with a chain.
"You've dumped me again, you dead face! I'm not going to let you go today." Liu Ze was caught by the chain and swung halfway, but his heart was still beating wildly.
"Sorry, it was an accident." This was a skill he had just mastered, and he released it very smoothly. Halfway through, he remembered that there was a star tied on the other side, so he ran over to pick up the person before finishing the skill.
Rong Zhou flipped a page of the book without even looking up: "Professional moves are just like that. How can you let him practice if you don't let him use them?"
"Then the master will practice with him."
"No, being tossed around affects my image." Rong Zhou answered as a matter of course.
Liu Ze rolled his eyes, reached out and punched Yan Shiliu on the chest, then pulled him to sit next to his master.
"This is floating around, when will it end?" He picked up the orange from the fruit basket out of boredom, peeled it and stuffed it into Yan Shiliu's mouth.
Rong Zhou shook the book in his hand and said with a forced smile, "If you don't want to wander in the dimensional rift in the future, stay quiet in another world and don't let the world consciousness notice you. Wait until the next anchor point sends you a message and then turn over directly."
Liu Ze glanced at his master indignantly. It was clearly his master who caused the big fuss, but now it was said as if he was the one who did it.
Yan Shiliu has been here for some time and can understand most of what is said, so it is better not to interrupt at this time.
Just as the master and disciple were bickering, Rong Zhou, who was drinking tea from the tea bowl to moisten his lips, suddenly paused.
Butler Wen Ciqiu suddenly appeared beside them: "Master, when the anchor point appears, do you want to jump?"
"Yeah." Rong Zhou's response was indifferent. When he put the tea bowl back on the table, the environment around the yard changed.
Part of it overlaps with the buildings in that world, while part of it is still hidden in another dimension.
After seeing the overlapping part clearly, Rong Zhou, who had been relatively calm, suddenly stood up, making the tea bowl on the table make a noise.
It was an older villa, dark and old, without any lights, quiet and full of dust. The yard was full of weeds more than a meter tall. It was obvious that no one had lived there for a long time.
But it is indeed a modern building, a modern villa that is about 20 to 30 years old.
Is this Earth?
