As the four slowly walked towards the teleportation array, they chatted idly. After a while, Yun Qiaoqiao finally couldn't hold back.
"Boss Lu, may I ask a question?" Yun Qiaoqiao looked at Lu Chenxing expectantly, "When will we begin the process of dispelling our cultivation and rebuilding it?"
She knew she shouldn't ask so eagerly, but the way people around them looked at her as if she were crazy, and thinking of her former classmates, made her feel anxious.
"Let's wait until we return to Loshen City. I'll find someone to guard us then, and you can dispel your cultivation and rebuild it. It will take about two more hours," Lu Chenxing said with a smile.
He understood Yun Qiaoqiao's urgency, but no matter how urgent it was, they had to wait until they were back at the Card Shop, as the appearance of a God of Faith would take a considerable amount of time.
Receiving Lu Chenxing's answer, Yun Qiaoqiao breathed a sigh of relief. She was only afraid that Boss Lu might have forgotten about this matter, as Lu Chenxing hadn't mentioned anything related to it on the way back.
However, since Yun Qiaoqiao brought it up now, Lu Chenxing told her about Guan Yang's situation, "I don't know if Lei Tai Mayor mentioned it to you earlier, but I have a disciple named Guan Yang?"
"Yes, he mentioned that," Yun Qiaoqiao nodded.
"Then you should know that Guan Yang's God of Faith is also not a conventional deity, but one that has never appeared before," Lu Chenxing said with a reassuring smile, "Since Guan Yang can succeed, then you should also be able to succeed."
"After all, you are someone who could successfully awaken even with a damaged Saint Temple Knight statue, which means your talent is very high. Don't worry."
Hearing this, Yun Qiaoqiao's expression relaxed even more, and she showed a smile. Her golden hair, tied in a ponytail, bounced with the sunlight, making her appear vibrant.
They didn't have to wait long. Shortly after they arrived at the teleportation array, Long Qifeng rushed over. The smile that had been on his face disappeared when he saw Long Zhi, who was still sound asleep.
Seeing this, Lu Chenxing couldn't help but sigh, "President Long, you don't have to be like this. After all, you didn't do anything wrong. Everyone has their own concerns."
Long Qifeng could only sigh deeply, then said with a bitter smile, "Alas... I didn't expect my utilitarian thoughts to be pointed out by a child. My old face has nowhere to hide, and I can't face her. Boss Lu, you don't need to persuade me anymore. Let it be. My old face will just have to thicken a bit more after some time."
With that, Long Qifeng waved his hand and walked towards a nearby soldier to discuss the teleportation.
At this moment, Wang Hu came over, looked at Long Zhi in Lu Chenxing's arms, and couldn't help but ask, "Boss Lu, is she really your daughter?"
"Yes, I just adopted her today," Lu Chenxing said with a smile, while also looking down at Long Zhi's beautiful and adorable sleeping face. Her fair skin, paired with long silver eyelashes, made her look like a quiet little princess from a fairy tale.
"Oh, why are the sides of her head pointed?" Wang Hu curiously gestured on his own bald forehead.
"Special physique. I'm afraid I can't tell you the specifics," Lu Chenxing replied, then felt a little like laughing because Wang Hu's words reminded him of an old internet meme from his previous life.
"Special physique!" Wang Hu suddenly gasped, then said enviously, "Doesn't that mean she's naturally suited for cultivation?"
He thought about how he and the others had poor talent and could only be martial artists, stuck in a mediocre position. But not only was Boss Lu powerful himself, his daughter even had a special physique that allowed her to cultivate naturally!
How could the gap between people be so vast!
However, Lu Chenxing only smiled and did not answer him, because he himself didn't know the exact situation of this special physique. He had checked with the Probing Technique, but the un-upgraded Probing Technique returned the same information as before. He would have to wait until it was upgraded to find out more.
A moment later, Long Qifeng walked over, "The teleportation array is ready. Do you have anything you haven't brought or need to prepare?"
Everyone shook their heads. Lu Chenxing hadn't brought anything, and the other three had carried all their belongings with them in the secret realm every day, so there was nothing else to take.
Confirming that no one had anything to retrieve, Long Qifeng waved to the soldiers behind him. Soon, the patterns beneath their feet lit up, and the familiar spatial energy surged. When the scene before their eyes became clear again, they had already returned to Loshen City.
"All right, Boss Lu, I'll head back now. If you need any help, just contact me," Long Qifeng said with a smile, bidding farewell. Although he had been promoted, he had operated in Loshen City for so long that his connections were still here. He could still solve some minor problems.
Moreover, the military personnel here, the mayor's secretary, and others all knew Lu Chenxing, so it was possible that he wouldn't even be needed to help.
"Okay, then I'll trouble President Long when the time comes," Lu Chenxing replied with a smile.
Long Qifeng gave a final smiling look at Long Zhi in Lu Chenxing's arms, then disappeared.
Wang Hu and the others had never been to Loshen City. Although they had been taking on various commissions, their main area of activity was still near the "city," because there were more commissions and transactions there. The atmosphere in the "city" was relatively relaxed, and there weren't as many commissions to take on.
Especially since their strength was mediocre, and because of Yun Qiaoqiao, they hadn't joined any guilds, as guilds didn't want people from the Church, otherwise they would easily become vassals of the Church.
So they couldn't take commissions as a guild, and in the end, they could only travel between various cities in a mercenary-like fashion. Therefore, they were now curious, looking around Loshen City for the first time.
"Alright, let's head back to my Card Shop first. After that, Yun Qiaoqiao will come with me to dispel her cultivation and rebuild it. Of course, you two can also go explore other places, but I won't be able to host you," Lu Chenxing said with a smile to the three, holding Long Zhi.
"Of course, of course, we can just wander around by ourselves later, no need for Boss Lu to host us," Wang Hu immediately said, indicating that they were fine with it.
"Alright, then let's go."
Lu Chenxing led the way, holding Xiao Longzhi. Yun Qiaoqiao followed closely, not leaving his side, afraid of getting lost, while Wang Hu and Lu Hai chatted and followed behind, seemingly having completely forgotten about almost being killed by the Church of the Myriad Gods' demon cultists.
The pace of the professionals was quite fast. In less than twenty minutes, they arrived at the entrance of Super Martial University, walking casually, heading towards Lu Chenxing's Card Shop.
Before they even reached it, Lu Chenxing saw someone standing at the Card Shop's entrance from afar, seemingly waiting for him. Looking at the giant blade on her back, it was indeed Yan Pingsha.
