Chapter 253 The Prophecy Came True
At the dinner table, Gu Yunxi met her colleagues. Apart from a few who looked to be around the same age as Huo Ziyu, the rest of them were probably close to a hundred years old, and one of them was even over a hundred.
Ming Chen was the youngest among them. When he first mentioned Gu Yunxi in Cenling, he was not only disdainful but also wanted to compete with her.
He was usually busy with training and rarely paid attention to the internet. When Gu Yunxi arrived, the aura she exuded completely dispelled Ming Chen's desire to spar with her.
His aura was so powerful; he seemed even more authoritative than the leaders.
Mu Zhao walked in, and everyone stood up. Gu Yunxi glanced at the old man and, apart from his kind appearance, discovered that he had no cultivation.
"Yunxi, this is our leader. You can just call him Uncle Mu."
Gu Yunxi bowed deeply. "Hello, Uncle Mu. You look familiar. Have I seen you online before?"
"Oh, you must have misread it. This time you're in Beijing, you should really have a good spar with these guys. They say the new generation surpasses the old, and I believe you're better than them!"
"hehe!"
Gu Yunxi sat there awkwardly laughing. Ming Chen, who was sitting next to her, whispered a few words in her ear. Gu Yunxi immediately sat up straight. She hadn't expected that this person was indeed the big boss who often appeared in everyone's sight.
He has a dedicated person to take care of him, and although he looks quite old, he is exceptionally healthy.
Originally, someone like Gu Yunxi, who was a junior member of the Kalami family, didn't have to come, but he still held onto hope. As people get older, they become afraid of death. Logically speaking, he could have retired at his age, but he was under a lot of pressure!
He needs medication to fall asleep at night. If Gu Yunxi really has a way to help him live a few more years, it would all be worth it.
After the meal, Gu Yunxi gave everyone a small porcelain bottle, all of which were helpful for cultivation. As for the senior leader, she gave him a light purple bottle separately.
“Uncle Mu, your physical condition is special, so I can’t get you to cultivate. Here are ten pills. Take one each year to help you prolong your life. You may have taken the longevity pill I gave to Old Cen before, but it seems your body didn’t absorb it. This one is relatively better. I’ll refine some more for you after you’ve used it up.”
"Okay, okay, Yunxi is so kind."
Mu Zhao's trip today was worthwhile. He had to leave early to allow his compatriots to properly entertain Gu Yunxi.
Everyone thought she had only come to deliver these pills, but what Gu Yunxi said next greatly excited them.
"I heard you cultivate here in Qingyun Ridge. I wonder what the spiritual energy is like here?"
Mingchen said, "Yunxi, you can see this world now. The air is polluted and the spiritual energy is thin. Qingyun Ridge is indeed better than other places, but only slightly better. I am much older than you. I entered this profession by chance with my master, but I never expected that it was just an entry. I haven't made any progress in the past few years."
The others nodded in agreement, especially the older ones. Their cultivation had remained stagnant, despite the country providing them with numerous resources. Perhaps due to their advanced age, they made no progress.
Everyone looked at Gu Yunxi with anticipation, wondering if she had any abilities that could improve their strength.
“Take me to Qingyun Ridge. I accidentally found a spiritual vein at Mirror Moon Lake. If we plant it in a place with good feng shui, you will have cultivation resources. Even the national special forces can come there, as it will definitely benefit their health.”
"Oh! Really?"
The happiest person was Cen Ling. As the vice president of the Metaphysics Association, the thing that gave him the most headache was the spiritual vein. He didn't even dare to think about what would happen after the spiritual vein was there.
"Of course! Let's set off while there's still plenty of time!"
Gu Yunxi found a secluded spot by the mountain and water in Qingyun Ridge and left the long bed there. She had unintentionally left it in her ring space, and unexpectedly, a spiritual vein had already grown in the space.
What a wonderful girl! After doing all that, she left.
Like the wind, it never stops, coming and going in a hurry.
As soon as Gu Yunxi arrived in Guangshi, a strikingly handsome man in red appeared beside her.
"Yunxi, I've been waiting for you for so long! You heartless bastard, you didn't even take me with you when you went out."
Gu Yunxi looked him up and down. "Migu, do you have to dress so similarly to me? It's easy for people to misunderstand."
"It's better that it's a misunderstanding!"
I'm not afraid you'll freeze to death.
The two arrived at a square in Guangzhou. It was almost midnight. In this fast-paced city, there was never a shortage of people.
The night market stalls are especially crowded, with many tourists from the north who come here with their families to stay for a month to escape the cold.
The weather was starting to get colder, but it didn't attract any attention from the people strolling around. Looking up at the brilliant starry sky, who would have thought that a heavy snow would fall from the sky just fifteen minutes later!
After all, even if the weather forecast changes, many people will assume it's a system malfunction and treat it as a joke; who would take it seriously?
It's almost midnight, and I don't know if it's accurate or not. I'm wearing a light cotton coat and the air conditioner is on. If it snows, I'll definitely go outside to see. I've lived for over thirty years, and I've never seen snow before.
I stocked up on a lot of goods this afternoon—food, clothes, household items, drinks—and my mom thinks I've lost my mind.
Actually, I hope everything Master Gu said is false, so we can remain safe and sound. If there really is heavy snow, that would be troublesome, since not everyone is constantly checking the weather forecast!
That being said, the supermarket downstairs from my house is completely sold out, except for the last few small red chilies. So many people are still paying attention to news online, especially since even a high-ranking official forwarded it, so there shouldn't be any problems.
Five minutes left! The exciting moment is here! I'm going outside to be the first person to see the snow.
[What? I'm out drinking with friends. When did they send out the snow forecast? Are you all drunk? Snow here is only possible if the sun rises in the west.]
Finally, it was dawn. The clear night sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, followed by a deafening clap of thunder. In an instant, large raindrops began to fall.
The vendors were caught off guard.
"Wait, this isn't rain, it's snow?"
Some people were wearing short sleeves. The temperature here is already high, so the snow melts as soon as it falls, making it look like it's raining.
"It's snowing! It's snowing!"
The sound of laughter and playfulness came from downstairs, waking the sleeping person. When they pulled back the curtains and looked outside, they saw that it was snowing heavily.
Some people have lived here their whole lives and this is the first time they've ever seen snow.
Excitement, exhilaration, and joyful sounds filled the streets and alleys, and some people even took advantage of the situation to start live streaming.
But this excitement didn't last long. The temperature seemed to get colder and colder, a cold that seeped into the bones. The group couldn't stand it and turned back.
This night was destined to be a sleepless one.
