Firefly Journey

Chapter 360, Part 2 (4)

After obtaining the fusion technique, Lin Yuanran continued his cultivation journey. However, since Earth was his home turf, he clearly lacked the buff of "oranges grown north of the Huai River turn into trifoliate oranges," making his cultivation very slow.

Realizing this, Lin Yuanran's confidence was somewhat shaken. In the Pan-Ancient Continent, it was impossible not to feel proud when he learned that his cultivation speed was ahead of everyone else. Now that he had been brought back to reality, he felt a great sense of disappointment.

Everything from before, in his own world, had to be torn down and started all over again.

The consolation is that the realm you gain from traveling to another world becomes a souvenir, at least you don't have to start from scratch.

The Void Realm is an extremely high level in anyone's eyes, one that many cultivators cannot reach even after a lifetime of effort, yet Lin Yuanran is still not satisfied.

All I can say is that once you've seen higher mountains and longer rivers, what you once thought was magnificent scenery will only turn out to be rotten fish and shrimp.

His dissatisfaction stems from a desire to become stronger, but what is his purpose in becoming stronger?

Yes, it is because they want to freely control the power of space in order to return to the ancient continent.

Having finally come back, why do you want to find a way to go back?

Back in the ancient continent, he longed to return.

Four years of experience in another world have helped Lin Yuanran grow a lot, and the people and things there have touched him deeply.

Torreg Town is poor, but its residents never complain and strive to make their lives better. Even after many years, Lin Yuanran can still remember everyone's smiling faces.

In Yicheng, there are also many people worth remembering. For example, Tong En, the president of the "Neon" guild who gave him a lot of help, seems to be in big trouble with her husband. If possible, Lin Yuanran wants to help them as much as he can.

The journalist Victor, who defended justice, the factory worker Delvis, and his classmates all left a deep impression on him.

In addition, there was a guide on his extraordinary path, who was also a beacon in his life.

That person was Cassius Bello, his teacher, a great and wise teacher in the eyes of the world. For the sake of peace on the continent, he was willing to become the vessel for the arrival of death. Such a vision made Lin Yuanran admire him even more.

He is his student, essentially a successor, and how could a student not carry on his wishes?

Lin Yuanran had realized in his heart that he could not sever the ties he had with the other world.

Since that's the case, then we'll just have to take them all.

The next thing Lin Yuanran needs to do is to be able to travel freely between the two worlds, and the prerequisite for doing so is to become stronger.

Even though he experienced many upheavals in the ancient world, he was not the one who ultimately resolved them. Perhaps Lin Yuanran played a role in everything, but it wasn't crucial. Most of the time, he was just playing a minor role.

In the ancient continent, he could find reasons to numb himself, after all, he was not from that world, so everything was naturally irrelevant to him.

But there are also supernatural powers on Earth. If they encounter evil gods or other bad situations that could affect their parents and family, what should they do then?

Lin Yuanran had no choice but to consider these issues.

To completely eliminate the hidden dangers, we must become strong enough to be fearless of any threat.

The more he thought about it, the more he envied Chi Liuzi. Just who was that group leader? With a simple gesture, he had given her a huge divine bodyguard team.

Why did he add me to the group?

Lin Yuanran spent night after night in meditation and contemplation, until a month later.

After a month, he finally figured out the puppetry technique. He only needed to wait a few more days to have a puppet go to school in his place and remotely control the puppet's actions so he could focus on his cultivation.

After class, Lin Yuanran planned to go back to his rented apartment to finish up the puppet, but unexpectedly, he ran into a classmate on the way.

They can't really be called classmates; at most, they're alumni.

A man with a pompadour hairstyle said, "We're having a get-together in a few days at the South Tower Hotel. Why don't you come along?"

This person is Zhao Dongcheng, a local rich second-generation from Hangzhou, and a well-known figure at school.

Logically speaking, such a person should not have any connection with Lin Yuanran's life, but there is a woman standing next to him, so there must be a relationship.

The woman's name was Wu Jing, and she was Lin Yuanran's high school classmate. They were the only two people in their class who attended the same school.

It wasn't because their grades were exceptionally high that they were admitted. Hangzhou University's admission scores are generally average; as long as your score isn't ridiculously high, you should be able to get in.

Lin Yuanran came here because he saw the beautiful scenery online.

During the two years of college life that existed only in his memory but actually happened, Lin Yuanran had quite a few interactions with this classmate named Wu Jing.

Since they come from the same place, it's normal for them to help each other, especially during their freshman year.

It has to be said that girls change a lot as they grow up. Wu Jing, who has shed her naivety, is not unforgettable, but she is still someone who can take a second look if she walks down the street.

Good looks naturally attract many suitors, and Zhao Dongcheng is one of them.

Lin Yuanran was embarrassed because he hadn't experienced those two years, but he still had related memories, so he couldn't just delete them directly.

Lin Yuanran didn't care that Zhao Dongcheng was pursuing Wu Jing, but the current situation was that this guy seemed to be treating him as a potential rival.

Lin Yuanran immediately refused: "I have something to do, so I won't go."

I'm in a hurry to get back to the Pan-Ancient Continent, where there are people I want to see.

“Jingjing will be going too. You’re her classmate, and she’ll be sad if you don’t go,” Zhao Dongcheng said.

Wu Jing also said, "Let's go together, there will be lots of delicious food!"

Lin Yuanran glanced at Wu Jing, and after a few seconds agreed.

Of course, it wasn't because I was infatuated with her beauty, but because of my understanding of human relationships.

They're from the same place, so they're fellow townsmen. It wouldn't be right not to give them face. Besides, in the two years of memories Lin Yuanran suddenly gained, his impression of Wu Jing wasn't bad. The two of them really helped each other. As a friend, he should give her face, shouldn't he?

"Okay, see you at the South Tower Hotel this Saturday at 7 pm. I'll send you the room details later."

"Okay." Lin Yuanran didn't care much; to him, it was just saving money on a meal.

……

Hangzhou University, Admissions Office.

A blonde, blue-eyed girl who looked like she stepped out of a farm from a famous novel by Montgomery was standing in front of the admissions officer's desk.

The teacher said warmly, "Our school welcomes students from all over the world."

Fengling politely replied, "It is an honor to study at your esteemed school."

The teacher said, "We have already seen your materials. They are excellent. It is clear that you have a good understanding of Daxia culture, and the Chinese name you chose is very profound."

"I know a little." Feng Ling smiled. The Xu family is indeed a noble family. They are very good at choosing names. Even if you change the Bema script to Chinese, the profound cultural heritage is still evident.

Just then, the teacher's phone rang. It seemed to be someone important. He apologized and said he would be back later.

Wind Chime was never one to stay still. Seeing that the teacher had left, she casually flipped open the stack of names on the top of the table.

Perhaps it was a stroke of luck, or perhaps it was some kind of invisible bond, but when she turned to the second page, she froze.

Lin Yuanran?

She had seen the name before.
