434 Ten Years (1/2)

Lorita's identity was suspicious.

As a 3rd Tier mutant and a higher-up of the White Pigeon Society, her sudden arrival in China Country would surely garner attention from everyone.

However, compared to the most powerful mutant in the world who had almost destroyed the Golden Eagle Federation, she was nothing.

At the Calamity Grade, a mutant would be akin to a walking atomic bomb. Even the 3 strongest countries would not be able to do offend such a mutant for they would not be able to bear the consequences.

Fang Yuan had the appearance of a Chinese man and did not break the laws of the country. It seemed like the country could establish good ties with him.

After testing him for a few times, both parties had come to an agreement.

Fang Yuan would not disrupt the few spies observing him, but the spies would not be so dumb as to invade his privacy.

In such a delicate balance, Fang Yuan led a simple life and observed the world and the countries changing.

Unknowingly, it was the Year 1013 and the third occurrence was about to arrive.

Within Banyan Tree City, a small shop had already opened its doors.

The shop was little and was in a secluded location. Upon entering, rows of wooden carvings lined the shelves, giving the entire place and artsy feel.

Although Fang Yuan had only used to dabble in the stock market and his earnings were enough for him to lead a comfortable life, he felt that it was too boring to just focus on his cultivation every single day.

Therefore, through his boredom, he opened this wooden carving shop.

The sales of the shop were only average and could just cover up the costs of operating the shop.

'Furthermore... Those people are smart!'

Releasing his spiritual will, Fang Yuan smiled to himself as he detected a few spiritual auras in the vicinity.

Considering his status, he gave a rude shock to Xi Menjian the moment he settled down in the country. Therefore, Xi Menjian had sent some spies to observe him, suspecting that he was Fang Yuan.

Even so, what could he do?

After displaying his ability to spiritualise and therefore attack and defend at the same time, even Xi Menjian would not dare to offend him and take him down. Xi Menjian could only continue to observe in the dark until now.

”Good afternoon, Boss!”

A young boy wearing a school uniform and scarf walked into the shop. ”Are you slacking around?”

”This is adult's business. How can you call it slacking?”

Fang Yuan raised his head up from the pile of books on the counter. ”Little Ming, I've told you many times that we do not loan out the carvings in the shop!”

”But... Boss, I really like these toys. Do you want me to work for you during my holidays?”

Lin Ming's eyes glistened as he spoke.

”No need!”

Fang Yuan lowered his head.

He had personally carved all these carvings, giving them a mysterious vibe. It was the epitome of artworks.

Needless to say, Fang Yuan would always add a 'surprise' to the carvings depending on his mood. Whoever who would be so lucky or unlucky to receive the surprise would be none of his business.

”Eh? Where are the two sisters?”

Lin Ming was rather acquainted with them. After their short exchange, he started to ask about the sisters.

”Piak!”

Fang Yuan rolled up the book in his hands and smacked Lin Ming's head. ”Why don't you focus on your studies!”

”I am instructed by my teacher to tell them not to forget about the year-end examinations...”

Lin Ming held his head and gave a look of pity as though he was wronged.

”Oh, I've got it!”

After Fang Yuan's treatment, Angel had restored her level of maturity to that of a young girl. Coupled with the fact that Lorita was doing nothing every day, Fang Yuan decided to just send the both of them to the nearest school to study.

The appearance of two westerners caused an uproar and a commotion in the school which only subsided after the involvement of the people from the Religious Bureau.

”Both my adopted daughters are naturally gifted and I am tired of them getting number 1...”

Fang Yuan gazed at Lin Ming. ”As for you, you should study hard. At least you would be able to do something well so that you can look for a job in the future!”

”No!”

Lin Ming clenched his fist. ”I want to awaken and become a mutant to join the Dragon Team of Chinese Country!”

”Piak!”

Before he could finish his sentence, his endured another hit on his head. ”Ahh... Pain...”

”You're young but you're already thinking of impractical thoughts. How is your progress in your 9th Stance Exercise?”

Fang Yuan rolled his eyes.

The occurrences and the presence of mutants were already long accepted by humans.

In fact, there were already huge changes in every aspect of society.

For instance, 10 years ago, the 9th Stance Exercise was first formulated by Fang Yuan and was an exercise which many students hated the most. The initial idea of the exercise was to commence cultivation training in each and every student, but now, it was used as a test to measure the potential of every student.

Compared to the previous general exercise, the 9th Stance Exercise which Fang Yuan had designed was psychopathic. It was 10 times more complicated than the previous general exercise and would require the perfect combination of breathing techniques and mindsets.

Obviously, such an arduous exercise only eliminated a lot of people from the beginning.

”I have already practised it up to the 8th Stance. I need a few more days before I can complete the 9th Stance...”

Lin Ming clenched his fists tightly.

”Oh? This progress is rather quick! Is your family nourishing you?”
