Ch 362: Learning To Be A Friend

After everyone in Shuguang Garden contracted the Ghosts, the remaining matters were left to their individual exploration.

Sister Chaoyang’s next plan was to help her friends complete their contracts.

Just a week ago, not long after ending the Shuguang Garden contract, Chaoyang received a call from Chi Yuanxing.

After a period of cultivation and adaptation, Chi Yuanxing had mastered the Cultivation Technique.

He originally thought that relying on his intelligence and understanding of the Cultivation Technique, he should be able to teach the technique to his family.

Who knew that he recited the manual without a single mistake, and his family’s cultivation steps were also flawless.

But for some reason, he couldn’t sense any Spiritual Energy fluctuations.

After several attempts, he called Chaoyang to discuss it, and only then did he learn the wonderful use of those two ancient books.

It turned out that the content and cultivation methods inside were secondary.

More importantly, each book contained a strange power that could help humans open the path to cultivation.

Just like what’s written in cultivation novels, those without Spiritual Roots couldn’t cultivate.

The function of the books was to create a Spiritual Root out of thin air.

After understanding the truth, Chi Yuanxing, as Chaoyang had guessed, wanted to ask Chaoyang to help his family cultivate the Cultivation Technique.

Chaoyang readily agreed.

But she had one requirement.

Only members of the Chi Family possessing Yin-Yang Eyes could cultivate.

There was no way around it; for the same reason, Chaoyang’s Points were limited, so she would start with her friends. She would consider outsiders only after everyone had the ability to protect themselves.

However, when Chi Yuanxing brought his family members with Yin-Yang Eyes to Shuguang Garden, Chaoyang was also surprised.

Several million people might not produce one person with Yin-Yang Eyes, but the Chi Family had six!

Indeed, genes are the biggest BUG of humanity!

You can’t steal it, and you can’t envy it.

If you ask him how he did it, he will casually tell you, “It’s innate.”

Not long after the Chi Family arrived, Luo Yu, Sun Chenggong, and others also arrived at Shuguang Garden one after another.

The last to arrive was the Rong Family, who had recently been plagued by negative news.

Except for Rong Tianlu and Rong Yingran, this was Chaoyang’s first time meeting the other members of the Rong Family.

Rong Yingran’s older brother and father both inherited the excellent genes of the previous generation, and they were incredibly handsome.

Especially Rong Yingran’s older brother, Rong Lingran, with his sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, looked like a knight from an ancient painting, so handsome that one couldn’t take their eyes off him.

“Sister Chaoyang, what do you think? My brother is handsome, and he’s single, oh,” Rong Yingran said playfully, holding Chaoyang’s arm.

Chaoyang smiled, “Indeed, he’s quite handsome.”

Chaoyang understood Rong Yingran’s intentions, but in this rebirth, her ambitions lay elsewhere.

If she survived the Apocalypse and life returned to normal, maybe she would consider it.

But for now, survival was the priority.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Chaoyang led the crowd to the rest hall on the first floor.

It was a place for Contract Holders to rest.

After everyone was seated, Zhao Qingming explained the matters concerning the Cultivation Technique and the contracts.

Besides the Rong Family and the Chi Family, who knew a little about the Cultivation Technique, the rest actually didn’t know why Chaoyang gathered them here.

Especially the two Managers from Yu Hui Building and their Nouveau Riche friend.

The three of them hadn’t had much contact with Chaoyang.

The Manager of Yu Hui Building was better off; at least he had added Chaoyang’s work Earth Pay, so they had some business dealings.

As for the Nouveau Riche, he had only met Chaoyang a few times and hadn’t even spoken a word to her.

He was both surprised and excited by Chaoyang’s sudden invitation.

Hearing Zhao Qingming’s explanation, his heart raced, his breath quickened, making it even more unbelievable than the sudden news of his house demolition.

They didn’t understand what kind of fate had bestowed this good fortune upon them.

In their previous conversations, they had already learned that the others had deep connections with Chaoyang, while they three seemed out of place among this group.

When Zhao Qingming finished his explanation, they finally couldn’t contain their curiosity and raised their hands.

“Please speak!” Zhao Qingming looked at the three.

Zhan Bo, the Nouveau Riche, stood up tremblingly, clearly still not recovered from his excitement. He forced a smile and said, “I… I’m just curious… why did you choose the three of us…?”

Yang Tan and Zhu Kai, the Managers of Yu Hui Building, nodded repeatedly.

Zhao Qingming guessed something, but this question wasn’t suitable for him to answer, so he turned his gaze to Chaoyang.

Chaoyang spoke with a faint smile, “Thank you for your immediate investment at that time.”

The investment, of course, referred to the Lake Heart Island project.

When the Rong Family was seeking investment, Zhan Bo immediately invested, and Yang Tan and Zhu Kai immediately came when they heard that Chaoyang was present.

This was Chaoyang’s reason for inviting them.

Zhan Bo smiled foolishly upon hearing this.

He never expected that his admiration for Master Rong would bring him such a great opportunity. His mother was right; he was a blessed person!

Zhu Kai and Yang Tan also suddenly realized Chaoyang’s answer.

No wonder the only investors here besides Sun Chenggong were the three of them.

It seemed that the remaining investors were not within Chaoyang’s plan, at least not yet.

Thinking of this, the two felt a unique sense of pride and couldn’t help but marvel at their investment vision.

After this little episode, Zhao Qingming answered some more questions.

After waiting for a long time and seeing that they had no other questions, Chaoyang spent 3.6 million Points to exchange for thirty-six Cultivation Technique books.

When the thirty-six Cultivation Technique books floated in the center of the hall, they actually stirred up a gentle breeze and changed the room’s color. Bathing in it, one’s thoughts became much clearer.

It was like a sleepy person suddenly smelling pungent Wind Oil, invigorating and refreshing.

Eighteen pairs of eyes reflected the softly glowing books, their faces filled with astonishment and excitement.

The explanation had already been shocking enough, but seeing it with their own eyes, many people were so excited that their brains were congested, almost fainting.

Chaoyang gently swiped her finger, and the books flew towards the people one by one, carried by the wind.

“Alright, just as I introduced earlier, you can absorb them by lightly touching them with your finger.”

As soon as Chaoyang finished speaking, Rong Lingran was the first to reach out his hand, his handsome face full of longing.

He had already heard Rong Yingran’s introduction at home. He thought it would be a long time before he had this opportunity, but he didn’t expect it to come so soon.

He lightly touched it. Before his senses even reacted, he saw the book turn into two streaks of light and penetrate his eyebrows.

A mysterious feeling filled his entire body, a warm feeling like soaking in a hot spring.

Seeing the book being absorbed, the others also reached out their excited hands.

Then, streak after streak of light danced in the room, resembling fireflies with tails.
