It wasn't until Yang Shen left that the scientists who had assisted in opening the dimensional rift finally realized what was happening.
"Murder!"
Suddenly someone shouted, and chaos erupted.
...
On the outskirts of Heyang County, a spatial rift appeared, and Yang Shen stepped out.
He originally wanted to absorb all the infected blue light in the world first, but the purification speed couldn't keep up, and he might accidentally kill himself.
So he decided to come back and gain some experience first.
Because using experience to upgrade the purification speed of infected blue light is many times faster than directly purifying it by circulating cultivation power.
Yang Shen didn't fly back directly, but walked back slowly, taking the opportunity to check on the situation in the entire Heyang County.
The situation is very good. Today is the third day, and there has not been a single infected person in the entire Heyang County. Although some people have developed high fevers and been hospitalized, the initial wave of infection was absorbed by them, so their infection level is not high and the disease progression is much slower.
To prevent the infection from spreading throughout the entire county, Yang Shen made a special trip to the hospital and secretly extracted the virus from the bodies of those people who were about to mutate.
He even went so far as to personally travel a long way around the entire Heyang County until he was certain that there would be no infected people in Heyang County before turning back.
By this time, it was already the fourth day.
At this time, infections had begun to appear globally, and even an outbreak of infections had begun.
Global transportation was paralyzed, and even the evening news was broadcasting reports of the apocalypse, with the military appearing to suppress the unrest, but they were quickly dispersed.
The people of Heyang County felt like they were dreaming when they saw the news, because nothing had happened in Heyang County. They suspected that the editor was making it up.
Fortunately, although an outbreak of infection occurred and the apocalypse seemed to be approaching, communications did not immediately collapse. Many people contacted relatives and friends in other places to confirm that the disaster was indeed happening.
"What's going on with you? You clearly promised to deliver the goods to me, and it's been three days already. If I starve to death, can you take responsibility?"
As soon as Yang Shen returned to Xinning Community, he saw his father, Yang An, being scolded.
And the person who reprimanded Yang An was actually Wang Yanbin.
"Mr. Wang, I'm really sorry. It's not that I don't want to deliver it to you, but I have no choice. As you can see, it's so chaotic outside. How can I dare to go out to buy goods right now?" Yang An said apologetically.
"I don't care, I've already paid. If I don't see the goods by tonight, you know what will happen!" Wang Yanbin said coldly.
"What are the consequences?" Yang Shen stepped forward and asked.
Wang Yanbin was stunned. He turned around and shuddered. But then he realized that he was a reincarnated person in this life. If nothing unexpected happened, Yang Shen might not have awakened his superpowers yet.
So he said firmly, "Young people shouldn't meddle in other people's business."
“He is my son,” Yang An said.
"Huh?" Wang Yanbin was taken aback, then realized, "Even my son won't do. You have to bring me those thirty bags of rice tonight."
Just as Yang Shen was about to speak, Wang Yanbin suddenly said to him, "Young man, don't speak yet. I have a task for you. If you do it to my satisfaction, I will bestow upon you an immense opportunity."
"What opportunity?" Yang Shen asked curiously.
Wang Yanbin raised his hand, and a sphere of spiritual energy slowly gathered in his palm.
People around gasped in surprise.
Yang An was also somewhat surprised; the ball of light looked so small.
Yang Shen raised an eyebrow slightly, roughly guessing what was going on.
Wang Yanbin, with an arrogant expression, looked down at Yang Shen and said, "See that? I'm actually a cultivator hiding in a metropolis. I didn't want to reveal myself during peacetime, but now that it's the end of the world, I have no choice but to show myself to save all living beings. However, I find you pleasing to the eye. If you can complete the task I assign you, I might consider taking you as my disciple!"
After saying this, Wang Yanbin looked at Yang Shen expectantly, thinking that Yang Shen would probably bow down and be moved to tears of gratitude.
After all, the apocalypse has only just begun, there are no superhumans yet, and cultivators are nowhere to be seen.
Now that he has suddenly displayed such great power, Yang Shen, as an ordinary person, would certainly be extremely shocked.
Yang An's expression was strange.
Yang Shen remained expressionless, about to speak, when suddenly he 'saw' the still-young Elaine leading her younger brother and a couple towards the entrance of the residential area. Upon seeing him, her face lit up with joy.
However, because Yang Shen was facing away from Elaine at this time, Elaine did not know that she had seen him.
Elaine also saw Wang Yanbin scolding Yang An and heard what Wang Yanbin said, and a strange look flashed across her face.
Before Wang Yanbin could say anything more, Elaine stepped forward and said calmly, "Wang Yanbin, you've grown quite bold, daring to be so rude to Brother Yang."
Wang Yanbin was taken aback when he heard this. He turned around and saw that it was a girl of about twelve or thirteen years old, and she looked somewhat familiar.
He frowned and thought for a moment, then finally remembered that this girl was none other than Elaine.
But was Elaine really that cute as a child?
Huh? Wait a minute...
Suddenly, Wang Yanbin's expression changed slightly: "You... how could you know me? That's impossible. You shouldn't know me at this time."
"It seems you've already recognized me, so you should know exactly what's going on." Elaine looked at Wang Yanbin with pity.
Wang Yanbin asked in disbelief, "You...you were reborn too?"
Seeing that Wang Yanbin seemed genuinely unaware of what had happened, Elaine patiently explained, "Back then, Brother Yang reversed the timeline of the entire universe in order to resurrect his parents. What do you think? Did you think that since you've become the protagonist of this era, you can control the world and turn around and make Brother Yang your underling?"
