Pure Yang!

Chapter 357: Encounter at the Airport! Zhang Sheng and the Thousand-Year-Old Demon
The silver-white plane flew through the clouds, causing some turbulence.

Sitting by the window, Zhang Fan slowly opened his eyes and looked at the hazy moon hanging high in the sky. He felt that the real world before his eyes became so unreal.

"You really fell asleep?"

Ge Shuangxiu turned his head to look at Zhang Fan, and couldn't help revealing a strange expression.

As the saying goes, when one's spirit is full, one does not feel like sleeping. The spirit of those who practice [Holy Embryo of Gods and Demons] is incredibly powerful, so they do not need to sleep at all, and cannot sleep at all.

"You haven't practiced your [Holy Embryo of Gods and Demons] enough." Ge Shuangxiu couldn't help but say.

"Have you really inherited your father's true teachings?"

"Nonsense!" Zhang Fan glanced at him.

Exploring the Three Corpses Yuandan is extremely exhausting. The memories of the former number one master in the world are like an endless ocean. If he had not cultivated the [Holy Embryo of Gods and Demons], anyone else would have their soul exhausted, like a lamp running out of oil.

Because of this, after each session, Zhang Fan would feel unprecedentedly tired.

"Why do you feel like you have had a serious illness? You didn't cultivate a fake [Holy Fetus of Gods and Demons], did you?" Ge Shuangxiu had a strange look on his face and lowered his voice.

"Are you your father's biological child?"

"..."

"What do you think!?" Zhang Fan rolled his eyes and closed his eyes.

"I'll sleep a little longer. Call me when you get there."

"Sleeping again?"

Ge Shuangxiu narrowed his eyes. They all said that one does not need to sleep to cultivate the divine and demonic fetus, so why is Zhang Fan still so sleepy?
Half an hour later, the plane finally arrived safely at Chang'an International Airport.

"Finally it's here again."

As soon as he got off the plane, Ge Shuangxiu took a deep breath.

"Have you been to Chang'an?" Zhang Fan asked casually.

"I traveled all over the country in the early years and lived here for a while." Ge Shuangxiu whispered, with a hint of reminiscence in his eyes.

"I remember the alley where I lived was called...what was it called...oh, Shayang Alley..."

In the early years, it was a sheep-slaughtering alley, where most of Chang'an's sheep-slaughtering workshops were located. Later, it was converted into a residential area.

"What are you doing in Chang'an?"

"Of course we are here for serious business. Are we here to travel?" Ge Shuangxiu took the gift, put on his bag, and took out his cell phone.

"At that time, there was a foot massage shop at the entrance of that alley. Every time I finished my work, I would go there to massage it. I don't know if it's still there now."

As he spoke, Ge Shuangxiu put a hand on Zhang Fan's shoulder and said, "I'll take you out to enjoy yourself later?"

"You can get a foot massage anywhere. There's no need to come all the way here." Zhang Fan said with a sneer.

"Then you don't understand. The restaurant I often patronize is called [Xinman Yuzu], and their signature set meal is called [Gao Shan Liu Shui]..." Ge Shuangxiu chuckled.

"Mountain stream and flowing water? What is that?" Zhang Fan was stunned.

"The sound of flowing water in the mountains is gurgling, and the consumption on the third floor is eighty-eight." Ge Shuangxiu said meaningfully.

"..."

Zhang Fan remained silent. He didn't know what this so-called set meal was, but just from the fact that he was on the third floor, he could guess that it must be quite extraordinary.

"Get down to business first!"

"Zhang Fan!"

At this moment, a faint voice came from behind.

Zhang Fan's eyes narrowed slightly, he stopped and looked, and saw a familiar figure walking up.

The man was thin, with pale skin and looked very sick. A young man followed him, helping to carry his luggage.

"Wu Qingnang!?"

Zhang Fan was stunned. He didn't expect that when he left Yujing City and just arrived in Chang'an, he would run into the newly appointed acting president of the Jiangnan Provincial Dao Alliance.

"You go first and wait for me outside." Zhang Fan said in a low voice.

"it is good."

Ge Shuangxiu understood what he meant and quickly quickened his pace, gradually disappearing among the crowd.

Just at this moment, Wu Qingnang came up.

"President Wu." Zhang Fan couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here?"

According to Sui Chunsheng's guess, if Lou Hechuan was really dismissed, then this person would probably succeed him as the chairman of the Jiangnan Provincial Dao Alliance.

"It's just a temporary position." Wu Qingnang chuckled and said, "I'm here to participate in an event."

"What a coincidence! We just met yesterday and we meet again today. What is Xiao Zhang doing in Chang'an?"

"I came to see a friend. President Wu still remembers me." Zhang Fan whispered.

"I already knew your name from the Shen family incident."

Wu Qingnang's breath was a little weak. After just a few words, sweat began to drip from his forehead, as if his body was already too weak to bear.

"Shen family?" Zhang Fan was stunned.

At the beginning, he had just joined Ye Buliang and followed Jiang Hu to the Shen family. He got acquainted with Qi Ji, broke the [Xuanjian Baolu], and saved hundreds of people. He also met Wu Ma and Wu Qilu, and the Shen family was destroyed.

To Zhang Fan, that seemed to have happened a long time ago.

He didn't expect that Wu Qingnang had remembered his name at that time.

“After all, it involves the thirteen zodiac signs…” Wu Qingnang seemed to see through Zhang Fan’s thoughts and couldn’t help but chuckle.

"Although I am in poor health and have spent more time in the sanatorium than in the Taoist Alliance, I will still go through the files for major cases," Wu Qingnang continued.

"Later, in the Candy Crush Funeral Home, and even in the matter of the Dog, Xiao Zhang, you also contributed..."

"I remember that the Taoist Alliance also awarded you a banner. You have a bright future." Wu Qingnang sighed.

"President Wu, you are too kind." Zhang Fan's heart moved slightly. It seemed that this acting president knew him very well.

"In the past, President Lou took great care of you. Although he is no longer with us, he has also told me to promote young people like you more in the future..."

At this point, Wu Qingnang smiled slightly and said, "Maybe we will get closer in the future."

"President Wu, that's too serious. I'll learn from you." Zhang Fan said modestly. For some reason, he always felt uncomfortable in front of Wu Qingnang.

"Cough...cough..."

At this moment, Wu Qingnang started coughing violently.

"President, you should take your medicine."

The young man next to him hurried forward to help and took out a bag of medicine from his bag.

"In these years, I have taken more medicine than food, sorry for the embarrassment." Wu Qingnang said self-deprecatingly.

"Take care."

"Xiao Zhang, go and get busy." Wu Qingnang waved his hand.

"President Wu, goodbye."

Zhang Fan said hello, turned around and left, gradually disappearing from Wu Qingnang's sight.

Wu Qingnang looked at the direction where Zhang Fan was going away, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

"Leader, this Zhang Fan is very close to President Lou." The young man next to him whispered.

"This young man is extraordinary..." Wu Qingnang said lightly.

"Leader, do you want to win him over? Then do you want me to make an appointment..." The young man understood what he meant. To be able to become the secretary of Acting President Wu, he must have a good eye.

"No, we will definitely meet again."

"Meet again?" The young man was stunned.

"Someone said that, and it does make sense." Wu Qingnang said lightly.

"Great spirits are always encountered unexpectedly."

"Xiao Liu, let's go too."

There was no sadness or joy on Wu Qingnang's face, but his eyes were like an ancient well, without any ripples.

……

At this time, the airport taxi stopped at the platform. Zhang Fan finally caught up with Ge Shuangxiu.

"Who was that person just now?"

"The newly appointed acting president of the Jiangnan Provincial Dao Alliance." Zhang Fan said casually.

"Wu Qingnang!?" Ge Shuangxiu blurted out.

"Do you know him?" Zhang Fan asked.

"heard about it."

"It is said that after the former vice president of Jiangnan Province Dao League, Jiao Tu Yan Jun Feng Ping'an, left, he took this position..."

"Wait a minute?" Zhang Fan raised his hand to interrupt.

"Who are you talking about? What was the former vice president's name?"

"What's wrong with Feng Pingan, Lord of the Scorched Earth?" Ge Shuangxiu asked.

"It's okay. I remembered the pancake stall downstairs from our house." Zhang Fan waved his hand.

"This Wu Qingnang has been sitting in the position of vice president for almost ten years. His presence has always been very low. Many outsiders think that the Jiangnan Provincial Dao Alliance does not have deputy positions." Ge Shuangxiu couldn't help but say.

"I didn't expect that Lou Hechuan was old and in trouble, but he took advantage of the opportunity and was able to get promoted."

"When the time comes, heaven and earth are on your side; when the fate is gone, the hero cannot be free..." Zhang Fan sighed.

"This is life."

Wu Qingnang, with his frail body, toiled as vice president for ten years, so what?
As long as Lou Hechuan is around, he won't be able to get back on his feet. If it comes to enduring, he won't be able to outlast Lou Hechuan, whose half body has already been buried in the ground.

Just when everyone thought that Wu Qingnang would retire, good luck came.

Things in this world are truly unpredictable.

"Let's go to the city center first." Zhang Fan waved his hand.

"By the way, Zhang Wang just sent me a message saying that he would go to Yujing City to see us."

"Did you tell him we weren't there?"

"I told him that we are in Chang'an now and we can only meet again next time." Ge Shuangxiu replied, "He told you last time that you will not have any brothers or sisters..."

"Do you really have a brother?"

"Nonsense, of course there is. How could I lie to him?" Zhang Fan glanced at him.

"I haven't heard you mention it much. So, you still have quite a few seedlings left in Nan Zhang." Ge Shuangxiu chuckled.

"Are you talking human language? Two is not a lot?"

"Hey, where is your brother now? I want to see what your brother looks like." Ge Shuangxiu was curious.

"I haven't seen him for many years." Zhang Fan sighed.

His impression of Zhang Sheng only stayed before he was ten years old. Later, he was sent to the Sanqi Orphanage for a year. After that, it was the Dragon, Tiger and Red Moon, and the night was dark.

"We'll meet again."

Zhang Fan murmured softly, called Ge Shuangxiu, and got into a green taxi.

The engine roared, and the car sped away, heading towards the center of Chang'an and gradually disappearing into the night.

"Zhang Sheng, wait for me."

At this moment, a hurried voice sounded at the taxi rank.

A young man with a bag on his back stopped. He had a handsome face, with a lively gleam in his eyes, and a hint of heroic spirit between his brows, which he kept restrained.

"If you don't wait for me, I'll go back."

A young girl caught up with him. She was tall, had a hot body, fair skin, and was dressed fashionably and sportily. She was wearing a baseball cap and stood out among the crowd.

"What's so good about taking pictures at the airport?" Zhang Sheng curled his lips.

"This is the first time I travel far away with you, shouldn't I record it?" the girl said unhappily.

"Qingqian, are you still asleep?" Zhang Sheng looked at the girl and couldn't help asking, "Is this the nth... nth time you have been with me?"

"Seventy-eight times." Chu Qingqian answered accurately.

"Yes, this is the 78th time you and I have traveled far away." Zhang Sheng reiterated.

"But this time is different. This is our first time on a plane." Chu Qingqian corrected.

"The first time? If I remember correctly, it should be the first..."

"The twenty-third time...you can't remember it at all." Chu Qingqian showed dissatisfaction.

"What's the difference?" Zhang Sheng asked.

"This is our first time to come to Chang'an by plane."

"..."

"What's that expression on your face? I've never been to Chang'an in my life." Chu Qingqian asked.

"Mt. Zhongnan, one of the ten great Taoist temples in the world, is right here. Should we go? I just checked the ticket price. It's only one hundred and eighty..."

Chu Qingqian seemed a little excited.

"Is it appropriate for you to go to Mount Zhongnan?" Zhang Sheng shook his head.

"Are you afraid that I will reveal my true form?" A hint of tenderness appeared in Chu Qingqian's eyes.

"I'm afraid you'll implicate me." Zhang Sheng turned around and walked towards the platform with his bag on his back.

"Zhang Sheng, you...are you going or not?"

"Don't go!"

Zhang Sheng said without even turning his head: "When my mother was young...she had some connection with Mount Zhongnan...it's better not to go."

"I've heard... that my uncle has a love rival who is from Mount Zhongnan." Chu Qingqian caught up with him, her eyes smiling into little crescents, her eyes gleaming with gossip.

"That's not called a love rival, that's called a bootlicker." Zhang Sheng said lightly.

"Not even close."

"Did your uncle tell you that?" Chu Qingqian asked.

"In any case, I won't go to Mount Zhongnan." Zhang Sheng decided.

"So where are we going first?"

"Meeting online friends!"

"Meeting in person!?" Chu Qingqian was stunned for a moment, then showed a look of vigilance.

"You came all the way to Chang'an just to meet someone? Which girl is better looking than me?"

"What's going on in your little head all day long?"

Zhang Sheng shook his head: "It's not what you think."

"How do you know which one I'm thinking of? And which one have you seen?"

"Are you the one with a hundred thousand whys?" Zhang Fan whispered and immediately took out his cell phone.

"I met this person in the [pornographic book]." Zhang Sheng said lightly.

This person is extremely special in the [Pornographic Book]. He has quite unique insights into spiritual practice and knows the past of Taoism and Wuwei very well. The two of them often communicate online and became familiar with each other over time.

"Not long ago, he suddenly cancelled his account."

"Cancellation? Involving pornography? Involving gangs? Involving politics?" Chu Qingqian asked.

"..."

"I don't know."

Zhang Sheng whispered, "However, he left me an address and asked me to come to Chang'an to meet him when I am free."

"I just found some time recently, so I came to Chang'an."

As he spoke, Zhang Shengliang produced the evidence on his mobile phone.

Chu Qingqian was skeptical as she looked at Zhang Sheng’s phone. It was a pornographic book app, a page for an account that had been cancelled. The ID was written next to the gray avatar, with “cancelled” written in brackets.

"Thousand-year-old monster!?" Chu Qingqian looked at the ID and said softly.
