In Douluo Continent, Tang San raids my base right from the start.

Chapter 256 Long Time No See

"Your turn is next."

Zhu Wu looked up at the Blue Silver King.

After speaking, he pressed his hands down slightly, releasing spatial power that transformed into streaks of silver threads that shot outwards. These threads then intertwined, forming a unique pattern that spread outwards.

The spatial teleportation array was learned from the Dragon God's memories and was once used to construct a passage between the divine realm and the lower realm. Similar patterns also appear on the storage soul tool, only smaller.

"What is this?" Blue Silver King asked in surprise, sensing the unusual spatial fluctuations spreading rapidly around it.

After a period of time, the ground within a radius of several hundred meters was outlined, and a faint silver light rose up.

"Activate!" Zhu Wu shouted softly, releasing his spiritual power. The silver light emanating from the surrounding patterns suddenly intensified, resembling the aurora borealis.

The next second, the high-age Blue Silver Grass disappeared, leaving behind pits in their place.

The Blue Silver King's massive body was rapidly covered by silver light, eventually turning completely silver before disappearing from the spot.

"Puff puff puff" Within the Dragon Realm, large amounts of Blue Silver Grass fell from the air near the ground, including Blue Silver King.

Looking ahead, past a grove of trees, there are endless flowers and grasses, and where they land, there is a forest on the outskirts.

A light mist drifted overhead, spreading from the center of the garden, and the air was full of life.

"From this day forward, the forest surrounding the herb garden will be your new habitat. It is your duty to protect the herb garden for me. Cherish all of this; it is a gift that your king has bestowed upon you at the cost of his own life."

Zhu Wu's spiritual transmission resounded in the consciousness of every Blue Silver Grass, and then it was limited to the Blue Silver Emperor.

"The easier something is to obtain, the less it is valued. Blue Silver Emperor, I hope that the inherent flaws of humanity will not manifest in your people."

"This servant will remember, my king." The Blue Silver Emperor accepted his new identity with composure and bowed respectfully toward the sky.

As a sinner, she had no regrets about exchanging herself for such a precious habitat for her people.

Zhu Wu said no more, withdrew his consciousness from the Dragon Realm, glanced at the empty ground around him, and quickly withdrew his spatial power.

There are countless Blue Silver Grasses in this forest, so he certainly couldn't take them all. He only needed to move the ones around this clearing. According to his investigation, the cultivation level of the Blue Silver Grasses in this forest decreases as you move outwards from this clearing, ending up with ordinary grasses on the outer edges. This is likely due to the influence of the Blue Silver Emperor's bloodline; the influence diminishes further outwards, resulting in lower potential and slower growth.

"I wonder if Tang San will ever come back, and what his expression will be then."

He smiled, got up, and flew away.

The next day, they rushed to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and released Ye Lingling and Ning Rongrong so that they could celebrate the New Year together.

As for Zi Ji, she didn't want to have too much contact with humans outside the world, so she chose to stay in the Dragon Realm.

Zhu Wu didn't really want to spend too much time interacting with outsiders, and besides, as a son-in-law, he was ultimately an outsider.

However, seeing Ning Rongrong and Ye Lingling enjoying themselves with their families, I was still somewhat moved.

This reminded him of his grandfather Zhu Gang, and Old Jack, who had helped him a lot when he was young. Counting the time, he realized that he hadn't been back to visit for many years.

"Take advantage of the Chinese New Year and go back to visit."

"Furthermore, it's time to put an end to some things."

As a son-in-law, I've now visited many families. Apart from Huowu, I've sent all the people my wife could to her parents' home for a family reunion. It's just right for me to leave under the pretext of returning to my ancestral home for the New Year.

Therefore, Zhu Wu suggested returning to his clan and coming back in a few days to pick up Ning Rongrong and Ye Lingling.

Ning Fengzhi understood and watched with the other women as Zhu Wu transformed into a bird and left.

Flying at full speed, Zhu Wu arrived at Holy Soul Village in just one day.

From the air, Holy Soul Village has undergone a dramatic transformation. The dilapidated thatched huts are gone, replaced by exquisite wooden pavilions and courtyards. The surrounding roads are well-connected, flat, open, and orderly.

It was clearly redesigned and rebuilt.

Lush green vegetation is planted appropriately inside and around the village, remaining green even in winter, making the entire village resemble a paradise.

In the central square, the originally low-rise branch hall of the Spirit Hall has been renovated and made more exquisite and luxurious.

Looking north, the house he used to live in hasn't changed much. The fence and front yard are still tidy, clearly indicating that someone has taken care of it.

The surrounding farmland hasn't changed much, except that it's been leveled and looks more aesthetically pleasing.

"It seems my harsh words back then had some effect." Zhu Wu smiled and flew back to his original residence.

With a flash of light, it transformed into a human form, its features slightly modified to better resemble Zhu Wu from back then.

Pushing open the door and stepping inside, the interior layout remained unchanged, except for the fact that it had been cleaned.

Zhu Wu's eyes flickered as he quietly walked to the table and sat down, gently stroking the surface with his hand, overwhelmed with emotion.

Once upon a time, he was just an ordinary commoner who depended on his grandfather for survival. Who could have imagined that he would achieve what he has today?

"Grandpa, I'm about to fulfill the promise I made to you." He murmured softly.

He glanced around, got up, walked out the door, and strode towards Old Jack's house in the center of the village.

"???" Neighbors not far away were all startled to see someone walking from the direction of where Zhu Gang and his grandson used to live. They were especially surprised after looking at Zhu Wu's face. Soon, a familiar neighbor came up and couldn't help but ask, "Are you... Zhu Wu?"

"Aunt Qing, it's been a long time." Zhu Wu greeted her with a smile.

"Xiao Wu, it really is you!" The middle-aged woman called Aunt Qing was taken aback, then smiled broadly.

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back. So many years have passed, you've really changed a lot. You're taller and stronger, you've really become a handsome young man."

"Xiao Wu, are you going back to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan this time?" A middle-aged man surrounded him from behind, looking worried.

They had already heard about Zhu Wu's relationship with the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, and he felt that Zhu Wu was going too early.

"You're still young, it's okay to go later, and you'll be more confident."

"Yes, safety comes first," Aunt Qing said hurriedly.

Not to mention that she watched Zhu Wu grow up, and even sent him medicinal seeds to improve his life when he was young, and later the young sect leader of the Illusionary Beast Sect came to give money to the village, and then the City Lord's Mansion and the Spirit Hall joined forces to help them transform the village, all of this was ultimately because of Zhu Wu.

This is a great favor.

Whether considering affection or gratitude, she didn't want anything to happen to Zhu Wu.

"Aunt Qing, Uncle Dong, don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Zhu Wu said with a smile. "I won't do a losing business."

Aunt Qing's expression relaxed. "That's right, you've been clever since you were little."

"Xiao Wu, are you getting ready to see the village chief?" Uncle Dong chimed in. "How about I take you there?"

"After the village was redeveloped, the houses in the village were also moved."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Uncle Qing," Zhu Wu said with a smile.

"Of course," Uncle Dong said with a smile. "If it weren't for you, our village wouldn't be what it is today."

"Speaking of which, Uncle Qing is really benefiting from your good fortune."

With that, he turned and led the way.
