I just wanted to cultivate immortality, but I was forced to open a harem

"Ah, I think Mai-chan is amazing. She hasn't even graduated from high school, but she's already earned 20 billion yen. Should I say she's worthy of being a national actress?"

"It's just a coincidence. Besides, most of my money is with my guardian, so I don't have much to spend."

"But when you turn 18, you can control your own money. You'll be a rich woman for sure."

"No, there are many girls who are richer than me, such as the daughter of the wealthy Shinomiya family. Even in our school, doesn't there have an international education class full of young ladies? Compared to them, I can only be regarded as a worker."

"Damn it, those who won the uterus lottery are the winners in life." Murakami Maki yelled, "I also want to lie down without doing anything."

Lin Hezhen said: "You can just lie down now, didn't you win 20 billion?"

Murakami Maki retorted: "That won't work. I just got promoted and haven't had time to show my talent yet. In my mind, I have to be the vice president before I can retire."

Lin Hezhen was speechless. There are such idiots in the world who give up a life of financial freedom and insist on going to the workplace to endure exploitation and oppression.

"It's up to you. If it were me, I would quit immediately."

Murakami Maki said, "Kazuma, you still need to go to college and find a job you like in the future, otherwise there will be no meaning in life."

"On this point, I stand on Maki-sister's side," Sakurajima Mai interrupted.

"People live not just to make money. While making money, it is more important to do what you like. How should I put it? It will give people a sense of accomplishment and happiness, which is more enjoyable than making money itself."

Lin Hezhen glanced at Sakurajima Mai and knew that she was speaking from her heart.

Mai Sakurajima re-entered the entertainment industry because she truly loves acting.

"Well, it's not that I can't understand. After all, I also have a goal that I'm willing to devote my whole life to pursuing."

Just like Murakami Maki loves her work and Sakurajima Mai loves acting, Hayashi Kazuma also loves cultivating immortals.

He did not cultivate immortality in pursuit of great power or high power and status, but simply yearned for the feeling of being free, detached from all things, pursuing the ultimate, and seeing the truth.

His teacher, Master Chongxuan, once said that this child had a destiny to become an immortal.

He doesn't know what immortal fate is, but he does like to cultivate immortality.

"Although I still have to go to work, I should celebrate winning 20 billion yen. I decided that we should go to Sakura together during the Golden Week!" Murakami Maki clapped her hands.

"We haven't been to see the cherry blossoms this spring. The blooming season is almost over. Only Beihai County still has cherry blossoms. Mai-chan, are you free recently?"

"I've been free for the last two weeks."

"That's great, let's go together. Without further ado, I'll book the tickets and hotel right away. This time we'll fly first class and stay in a five-star hotel!" Murakami Maki said with a clenched fist.

Chapter 72 Meeting old friends in a foreign land

"Zha Huang, here I come!"

In the empty airport, Murakami Maki shouted with great enthusiasm, just like an elementary school student participating in a spring outing for the first time.

"Aunt, stop making trouble. Everyone is watching us." Lin Hezhen covered her face, feeling ashamed for her.

Murakami Maki said nonchalantly: "What does it matter? We are the only ones here anyway."

Coming out of the VIP channel, the only people standing at the boarding gate were Hayashi Kazuma, Murakami Maki and Sakurajima Mai.

In order to prevent Mai Sakurajima from being recognized and causing unnecessary trouble, Maki Murakami directly booked the entire first-class cabin.

Therefore, there were indeed only three of them waiting to board the plane, and the airport staff serving around them all smiled and pretended not to hear anything.

It's normal for rich people to have some quirks.

Lin Hezhen rolled his eyes. Even though Sakurajima Mai had already done a complete disguise and he had also put a talisman on her that made her vaguely recognized, Murakami Maki still insisted on booking the first-class cabin.

This woman is just squandering money on purpose and enjoying the feeling of burning money. She's just having fun.

Having won 20 billion yen in the lottery, she naturally wanted to show off. Otherwise, who would know she was rich?

Lin Hezhen was very skeptical. How long would the 20 billion yen last her?

If Murakami Maki was not a hardcore office worker, she would probably end up like those people in the news who won the lottery, spent money recklessly, and finally ran out of money and ended up living on the streets in a few years.

Murakami Maki had no idea that Hayashi Kazuma was secretly criticizing her, and she excitedly took out her cell phone to take selfies.

She was wearing a Chanel dress, a Prada bag on her shoulder, LV sunglasses on her face, Tiffany earrings on her ears, a Bulgari necklace around her neck, and a Cartier watch on her hand.

The word "nouveau riche" was almost written on his forehead.

This woman went to the luxury stores and dressed herself up like a plastic model on the day she redeemed her prize.

After being dragged around the streets for a whole day, Lin Hezhen was really afraid of her. If it wasn't for the fact that her boarding time was approaching, she would probably continue shopping tirelessly.

Compared with Murakami Maki, Sakurajima Mai is like an angel. Although she is a small wealthy woman, she is extremely low-key, quiet and gentle. Even her occasional sharp tongue seems so cute.

If Lin Hezhen had not already promised his life to Sendoh, he would probably have married Sakurajima Mai.

"Mai-chan, Xiaohe, come take a photo together."

Murakami Maki took more than a dozen photos with the two of them, and finally put away her phone with a sense of unsatisfied desire and boarded the plane.

There were only three of them in the eight-seat first-class cabin, and the dedicated service of several flight attendants made Lin Hezhen feel that the ticket price was not so bad.

Because a vaguely recognizable talisman was made for Sakurajima Mai in advance, she looked like a strange girl to outsiders and was not recognized at all.

Apart from Hayashi Kazuma, only Murakami Maki, who was cast under a spell, could see Mai's true appearance.

And Murakami Maki was given a hint by Hayashi Kazuma that she would not feel uncomfortable about the fact that everyone did not recognize Sakurajima Mai.

"It's a good feeling, this."

Mai Sakurajima said happily, "Before, when I was on a plane, people would always come up to me and ask for my autograph, or secretly look at me, which made me afraid to let go of my image as an idol. Now, I can relax and have a rest without worrying about anything."

"You can't spend all your time resting. You haven't reached the required training time today. You should practice hard on the plane. Otherwise, when you get to Zhahuang, you will be traveling and playing all the way and your training will be wasted."

Lin Hezhen leaned over and whispered in Sakurajima Mai's ear.

He now has the consciousness of being a master, no, a senior brother. He takes time out every day to explain difficult problems to Mai Sakurajima and urge her to practice.

He has an automatic cultivation plug-in, so he can slack off as much as he wants, but it's different for Sakurajima Mai. She has to spend a lot of time and effort in cultivation to improve her cultivation.

"I know, Onii-chan." Sakurajima Mai gave him a coquettish look and deliberately blew into his ear.

"What are you doing? This is a public place!" Murakami Maki said angrily, slapping the armrest, her face full of resentment of a single person.

"It's nothing. The plane is about to take off. Everyone fasten your seat belts." Lin Hezhen took the opportunity to escape from Sakurajima Mai and sat down in the seat diagonally behind her.

"Hmph, coward." Sakurajima Mai wrinkled her nose, turned her head to collect her mind, and began to practice her skills.

She knew very well that if she wanted to stay with Lin Hezhen for a long time, cultivation was necessary.

She has experienced the miraculous effects of the "Three Purities' Mysterious Art of Creation", which are changes to the human soul, genes, and the essence of life that ordinary people cannot even imagine.

Lin Hezhen said that as the realm is improved, the cultivator will transcend the limits of human lifespan and leap into a more advanced life form, with a long lifespan, eternal youth, the ability to fly and hide, and be omnipotent.

Sakurajima Mai believed in him, and therefore became more determined to pursue the goal of becoming an immortal.

If our life levels were so different, then it would be impossible for me to be with Lin Hezhen in this life, let alone fulfill my promise to make him confess to me.

……

A few hours later, the plane landed at Sakura Airport.

The chilly spring breeze made Murakami Maki's neck shrink, and her brain, which had just awakened from sleep, suddenly became much clearer.

"Wow, the temperature in Beihai County is indeed several degrees lower than that in Dongdu. Hey, look, the news says that the cherry blossoms in Sakura are in full bloom and are entering the best viewing period. We really came to the right place!"

She excitedly called on Hayashi Kazuma and Sakurajima Mai to hurry up and get to the hotel before the sun sets, and then take a night tour of Sapporo to take in the night view of this famous tourist city.

In the taxi, Murakami Maki was still talking about her arrangements.

"We will stay in the hotel for one night and go camping in the suburbs tomorrow. I have asked someone to prepare all the equipment. We will enjoy the cherry blossoms and have a picnic. We will go rafting during the day and stargaze at night. It will be super romantic!"

She patted Lin Hezhen's shoulders hard, so excited that she couldn't control herself.

"It's all right, as long as you are happy." Lin Hezhen had nothing to say to her.

If it weren't for his new fingers that practiced automatically, the crime of wasting his time alone would have been enough for Lin Kazuma to turn Murakami Maki into an idiot who only knew how to say "Aba Aba".

Mai Sakurajima, however, was looking forward to this trip: "It feels great, camping. I have never traveled with my family, nor have I participated in such group activities at school, and I don't have any friends to camp with me. Thank you, Maki-san, for taking me along."

Murakami Maki felt very sorry for the girl because she acted as if nothing had happened.

She hugged Sakurajima Mai and said, "It's okay, Mai-chan, you can always come to us wherever you want to go, we will accompany you, right, Xiaohe?"

Murakami Maki poked Hayashi Kazuma in the stomach with her elbow.

Lin Hezhen could only nod helplessly: "Yes, yes."

"Tsk!" Murakami Maki was very dissatisfied with Lin Hezhen's careless attitude.

Even after all the assists you received, you still can't even follow the pole. This teammate is really a fool and can't be led by anyone.

After getting off the taxi, they entered a luxurious five-star hotel and checked in at the front desk.

Lin Hezhen looked around boredly when a familiar figure came into his sight.

"Hey, isn't that Yukinoshita Yukino? Why is she here?"

★ 2. Automatic explosion when the person and the girl are separated by meters★

Chapter 73 Yukinoshita Yukino

In the luxuriously decorated hotel, Yukinoshita Yukino quietly slipped away from the cocktail party alone and came to the lobby to get some fresh air.

This was not the first time she had attended a business cocktail party of this kind, but she could never get used to it.

Whether it was awkward conversations with elders, hypocritical flattery with adults, or intrigue among peers, it all made her feel suffocated.

In contrast, her sister, who was good at dealing with people, was like a fish in water in such occasions.

She quickly gained control of the discourse among the younger generation and at the same time secured a place in the social circle of the elders.

Her parents were also proud of their eldest daughter and took her to interact with celebrities from all walks of life, completely ignoring the existence of their younger daughter.

This neglect from her relatives made Yukinoshita Yukino feel sad, but also made her feel fortunate.

I was glad that I didn’t have to stay in that boring cocktail party and socialize with my parents with a smile on my face.

"If I was born in an ordinary family, would I not have to live such a depressing life?" She thought as she stared at the traffic outside the window.

Quickly, she shook her head again, shaking off this weak thought.

"I am the second daughter of the Yukinoshita family. I will prove that even without doing those face-saving things, I am good enough and correct enough."

"Yukinoshita Yukino? It's really you. I thought I was seeing things."

A young male voice came from behind her. Yukino turned around and found that her tutor, Lin Kazuma, was standing in front of her.

"Why are you here?" they asked in unison.

After a moment of stunned silence, Yukinoshita Yukino recovered from her surprise.

She said coldly, "I came here with my family. During the Golden Week, Zha Huang will hold a series of business events, and my mother requires that the whole family must attend."

"Oh, a business activity? It sounds very high-end. You are worthy of being a young lady." Lin Hezhen raised her eyebrows.

A trace of helplessness flashed across Yukinoshita Yukino's brows.

"I don't think it's high-end. Except for the people who come here with higher status, it's actually no different from the pop groups in school. They're all a group of people bragging about business, flattering the superiors, flattering their competitors, raising their own value, belittling those of lower status, and negotiating some shady deals... In short, it's disgusting."

"Tsk tsk, as expected of Yukinoshita, her words are still so sharp." Lin Kazuma even wanted to applaud Yukinoshita Yukino.

The county councillor's family has a rebellious daughter who has unorthodox ideas, but is smart, insightful, sharp-tongued, and behaves in her own way. Her parents must have been troubled by this.

However, in this regard, Hayashi Kazuma is on the side of Yukinoshita Yukino.

Through the Kamo family, he clearly understood what kind of people those high-ranking officials from the island nation were, and naturally he would not have a good impression of them.

The harsher Yukinoshita Yukino scolded him, the happier he was.

"And you, why are you here? You don't look like you're attending a cocktail party... Are you here to apply for a waiter position? You're not following me, are you?"

Yukinoshita Yukino turned the gun towards Hayashi Kazuma again.

"That's right, I'm following you. When you're alone, I'll kidnap you and take the opportunity to blackmail the Yukinoshita family." Lin Hezhen said seriously.

"If I'm not mistaken, I'm alone now."

"Yeah, so if you don't want to suffer, just follow me obediently."

The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
