Chapter 90: What’s the origin?

An Chen was also confused as he looked at the woman in front of him, dressed exactly like him and even holding the same Qingxin Grass Leaf.

What was this person's background?

An Chen scrutinized the woman from head to toe, but her shoes seemed to have heels, making it difficult to judge her height. As for her build… she was neither fat nor thin, and there were many women with that body type.

As for her voice… this woman also spoke with a hoarse voice.

He simply couldn't use this information to determine who she was.

An Chen originally wanted to take the money and leave quickly, not wanting to waste more time here, but the woman suddenly turned her head and glanced at him.

Looking into those eyes, An Chen suddenly got goosebumps all over.

Eyes are the windows to the soul, and some people can distinguish a person merely by their eyes, but An Chen generally doesn't rely solely on eyes to judge a person.

There are also eyebrows.

The change in a person's eyebrow shape from childhood to adulthood is very slight. There have been cases where the appearance of abducted children when they grew up was determined by their childhood eyebrow shape, thus leading to the discovery of abducted children.

Combining the eyes, eyebrow shape, and the distance between the eyebrows and eyes, plus his powerful memory, An Chen could also identify a person based on this information.

An Chen was astonished to find that these eyes had appeared in his memory before.

It was true that he had an excellent memory, but memory was also a vast library. If he recalled chronologically, it would be like finding books by their catalog numbers, with a discernible pattern, and he could remember immediately.

But to throw such a pair of eyes into the vast library for comparison, that would be a huge project.

He needed time.

Therefore, An Chen couldn't remember whose eyes these were for a moment.

The woman quickly averted her gaze, only staring at Sun Zhijun, and asked:

"Do you want it?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Sun Zhijun quickly went to greet her, not forgetting to bid farewell to An Chen.

"You take care! I'm the only one in the shop, so I won't see you out. Remember to come to me next time you have goods!"

An Chen didn't respond and left on his own.

The negotiation in the shop wasted nearly an hour, and he had to tutor Zhou Xin Xin later, so he couldn't waste time here.

However, he first went to the nearest bank to deposit money at the ATM.

The ATM could only deposit 50,000 yuan per day. An Chen planned to keep half of the remaining money and deposit the other half tomorrow.

With the cash in his card, An Chen felt a little more at ease.

Thus, he now had a 'starting capital'.

150,000 yuan was enough for him to live comfortably for a long time, but An Chen didn't want to start enjoying himself just because he had some money; he still needed to work hard to earn more.

However, knowing he had money, An Chen was still delighted. On his way back, he packed two portions of pork knuckle rice.

He used to rarely eat out because it wasn't economical, but now it was different.

After tidying up at home and cooking two large bowls of noodles, he and Su Xiaojiu each had a bowl of rice and a bowl of noodles, perfectly satisfying their hunger.

By this time, it was just about time to go tutor Zhou Xin Xin.

After a few words of instruction to Su Xiaojiu, An Chen went downstairs as usual and knocked on the door of Zhou Xin Xin's home on the second floor.

Soon after, Zhao Jing opened the door. As usual, she first handed An Chen a handful of candies, then welcomed him in.

But An Chen noticed that Zhao Jing looked a bit troubled.

An Chen was about to ask what happened when he saw a middle-aged man sitting on the living room sofa. An Chen knew him; this was the owner of the house, Zhou Limin.

Zhou Limin looked very distressed, rubbing his forehead as he sat on the sofa. He suddenly picked up his phone, then didn't know what to do, so he put it down again.

He then picked up the wine bottle on the coffee table, took a big swig, then crushed the empty can and threw it aside. There were already several other empty cans there.

An Chen knew that Zhou Limin often worked away from home, only returning a few times a month, but every time he saw him, this middle-aged man would warmly entertain him.

Although Zhou Xin Xin rarely saw her father, An Chen also learned from her that she liked Zhou Limin very much, because Zhou Limin always had a smiling face at home, never lost his temper, and never brought work issues home. Even though he smoked and drank, he never did these things at home, making him a model good man.

But today, he uncharacteristically brought a mix of decadence and distress home and drank so much alcohol.

"This is…"

An Chen looked at Zhao Jing, asking with confusion.

He guessed that Zhou Limin's business had encountered some difficult problem, which was why he was like this.

Zhao Jing hesitated for a long time, but still led An Chen into Zhou Xin Xin's room first. After closing the door, she sighed and said:

"Her father has become one of those Transcendents from the news."

Just that one sentence startled An Chen.

"Transmigration? Didn't that happen two or three days ago…?"

"He Transmigrated two hours ago. After he came back, he said he had already spent two days in that world… We are all very worried now whether he will encounter any danger in his next Transmigration."

Zhao Jing also showed a troubled expression.

Zhou Limin was the pillar of this family; all the family's expenses were earned by him. If Zhou Limin had any accident in the Jiu Zhou World, then this family would collapse.

"You don't need to worry about this. First, tutor Zhou Xin Xin."

Zhao Jing forced a smile, then returned to the living room.

But An Chen's focus was not there.

A new batch of Transcendents?

An Chen immediately took out his phone and opened social media, and sure enough, he found that more people were claiming to have Transmigrated, and some were classifying them as 'Second Batch Transcendents'.

And Kunpeng also released a new video.

"Brother Chen."

Just as An Chen was about to watch the video, Zhou Xin Xin's voice interrupted him.

"My father…"

Zhou Xin Xin's eyes were filled with tears. Although she might not fully understand the Transmigration event or the Jiu Zhou World, she knew her father was in a very dangerous situation.

"It will be fine. No matter what difficulties you encounter, you can find a solution, just like there's an answer to every question, right?"

"Mm…"

Hearing An Chen say that, Zhou Xin Xin nodded, holding back the tears that were about to fall.

"Shall we help your father understand that world together, okay?"

"Okay."

So, An Chen clicked on that video.

It still started with a black screen, still slowly presented in an animated style, and still had the same sweet female voice.

Two maps reappeared on both sides of the screen.

The voiceover slowly began.

"It has been confirmed that the interaction between the two worlds will not be just once, but multiple times. Transcendents will Transmigrate again after a period of time, and after this time, a new batch of Transcendents will also be brought into the Jiu Zhou World."

"Therefore, during the period when Transmigration is about to occur, please pay special attention to the doors in your life, whether or not you wish to become a Transcendent."
