Chapter 259: Aging Quickly, Meeting Li Kai Again

Chapter 259: Aging Quickly, Meeting Li Kai Again

After not seeing them for a while, his mom and pops had seen great improvements.

With the large reserve of resources, mom managed to break through to a Level 7 Arcanist, while dad managed to become a Level 6 Arcanist. The speed of their development was unprecedented, and will never be topped.

Perhaps their strength may not be a big deal in the wider world, but in Lantian Base City, they were definitely the most powerful existence.

And there was something dad said during meal.

Half a month ago, another Beast Tide broke out at Lantian Base City. The leading Direbeast was a Titan Tempest Ape, and the disaster was not much differrent from the Beast Tide set off by the Bloodgorger Bat.

Lantian Base City was once again in crisis.

However, just as the Beast Tide was about to set off, the Titan Tempest Ape was incinerated by mom, and the other Fifth-Order Direbeasts were zapped to death by dad with lightning.

The Beast Tide was ended before it had even started, and thus mom and dad became heroes of Lantian Base City.

So, they may look like they are training just for fun, but they are also powerhouses in the eyes of the others.

The family chatted with a cordial atmosphere, mom and dad talked about their lives during this period, while little sis talked about matters of her school.

All of this gave Ling Jiu a sense of unprecedented peace, and only at home could he completely relax.

“Brother, when can I awaken the my Arcana?”

Xiaotong looked at Ling Jiu eagerly and her eyes were full of disatisfaction. “Both mom and dad are Arcanist, both you and lil sis are also Arcanist. Only I alone is an ordinary person at home. This is too unfair!”

“You also want to be an Arcanist?”

Ling Jiu guffawed. “Didn’t we already agreed that once you will only be awakened once you graduate from high school, and go through the awakening ceremony?”

“That’s just too late!”

Xiaotong pouted “I’m only in my sophomore year in high school, and I’m still a full year away from graduating!”

“A year you know! How can I wait? No, I want to awaken now, I can’t wait a moment longer!”

She was the youngest at home prior to this, and her brother asked her to only awaken her Arcana after graduating from high school, and she agreed.

Now that she had a younger sister in Ling’er, and the latter was one year younger than her and already a Level 8 Arcanist, how could she keep on waiting?

“Then tell me, what sort of Arcana you want to awaken?” Ling Jiu teased as he chewed on a mouthful of food.

“Hehe!”

Speaking of Arcana, Xiaotong’s eyes suddenly curved in excitement.

“I’ve talked about this with my best friends before. Xiaochun wants Fire Manipulation Arcana, Xiaoxia likes swimming so she’s hoping for Water Manipulation Arcana, while Xiaoqiu was to awakened Thunder Manipulation Arcana.”

“How about you?”

Ling Jiu asked with a smile.

“I like to control ice!”

Xiaotong’s eyes lit up. “I want to be like the Ice Queen in the movies, controling an ice sword with a wave of her hand. It’s not only beautiful, but lethal as well!”

“Ice Manipulation?”

Ling Jiu and the others looked at each other and could not help but laugh. Yang Su smiled and said.

“Daughter, what sort of Arcana we awaken is out of our control. We can only accept whatever Arcana that we awaken.”

“I know that!”

Xiaotong pouted a little and said: “So, I’m just hoping. It’s not like it have to be Ice Manipulation Arcana.”

“Xiaotong, Ice Manipulation Arcana is pretty good. I’ll see to this some other day.”

Ling Jiu patted his sister’s little head and said with a doting look.

“You’ll see to this?”

Xiaotong was taken aback. “Brother, you can help me awaken the Ice Manipulation Arcana?”

“Since when did I lie to you before?”

Ling Jiu smiled.

“Yay! I knew you were the best!”

Xiaotong was so happy that she jumped up and gave Ling Jiu a peck on the cheek.

“Oh you…”

Ling Jiu scolded her with a smile and wiped the oil on his face with a napkin before looking at his parents.

“Mom, dad, aside from seeing you all in this trip, there’s something else I want to discuss with you, and of course with Ling’er as well.”

“Xiaojiu, what’s the matter that is so serious?” Ling Tianci asked in surprise.

“It’s like this…”

Ling Jiu told them about White Hole 2, and be it mom, dad or Ling’er, all of them were dumbstruck.

“An alien planet?”

“Time passes 99 times faster?”

“Is there such a planet?”

“Brother, is what you saying true?”

Ling’er looked at Ling Jiu, her beautiful eyes were full of excitement. Aside from Ling Jiu and Bai Ya, she was the one from the family that knew the cultivation value of White Hole 2, and was naturally ecstatic.

“Of course it’s true!”

Ling Jiu smiled “Bai Ya and I had said for a year and a half on that planet, and when we returned, only three to five days had passed.”

“Using this year and a half, both of us had broken through Level 10, and become stellar lifeforms.”

“That’s awesome!”

Ling’er leap up. “Brother, I want to go!”

“The reason we came back this time, was to take you there.”

Ling Jiu smiled and agreed, before looking at his parents and asked. “How about you?”

“Xiaojiu, will both mom and dad age quickly if we go to the planet?”

Yang Su frowned and asked worriedly.

“…”

Ling Jiu was a little speechless, but still said. “The flow of time on that planet is very fast. How many years spent there is the same as how many years had passed on Earth.”

“In other words, if you could live for a hundred years, and if you spend a hundred years there, you will still die of old age.”

“That is to say, we will get old very quickly if we get onto the planet?”

When Yang Su heard that, she shook her head like a rattle. “Then we’re not going! I’ve only just finally reunited with your dad, and I’m not done living yet, I don’t want to grow old too fast!”

Ling Tianci originally also wanted to go to the alien planet to have a look, but upon hearing that he would age quickly, he immediately shook his head.

You gotta be joking. His happy life had only just came, why would he want to die early? No, he’s not going! Over his dead body!

Hearing the two old folks saying this, both Ling Jiu and Bai Ya were a little helpless, as Ling Jiu said.

“Mom, dad, although staying on that planet means aging much quicker compared to when on Earth, but I’m sure I’ll be able to help you become a stellar lifeform.”

“You need to know, once you become a stellar lifeform, you can live for at least a thousand years!”

“A thousand years!!!”

Yang Su and Ling Tianci exclaimed.

“Yes, a thousand years. Think about, compared to a thousand years, what is your 100 years life expectancy when compared that?”

Ling Jiu tried to tempt them.

Yang Su and Ling Tianci were convinced and could not help but to look at each other as they nodded in unison. “Go! Let’s go!”

“Then it’s settled.”

Ling Jiu smiled and said. “We’ll leave tomorrow then.”

“Okay!”

That afternoon, Ling Jiu accompanied his family and closer to night, Ling Jiu called his best buddy, Li Kai and invited him out for dinner.

The two did not go to a high-end hotel, but instead met at a large stall near their school, where they shared a lot of memories there.

The moment they met, Ling Jiu punched Li Kai in the chest, saying. “Ol’ Li, we’ve not met for a year now, you sure gained quite some pounds.”

“Hehe, my family’s genes are like these. No choice, we get fat once we reach adulthood.”

Li Kai too was very happy. “Speaking of which, Ol’ Ling, you’re really a force to behold now. I saw the live footage of you slaughtering the Insectoid army.”

“Heh, even that giant bug was swallowed whole by you. The internet says that you have become a Level 10 Arcanist, a Stellar-lifeform, is it true?”

“More or less!”

Ling Jiu laughed and dragged Li Kai as they got a spot. Soon, a waiter came over and asked. “What would you like to have?”

“Ol’ Li, what do you want to eat?”

Ling Jiu asked.

“Like usual!”

Li Kai smiled.

“Sure!”

Ling Jiu nodded. “Boss, give me two bottles of cold beer, ten lamb skewers, ten grilled chicken wings, ten lamb kidney skewers, ten gluten skewers, ten roasted chive skewers, ten grilled chicken fillet skewers, ten lamb chop skewers. That’s for now.”

The waiter quickly took down the order and looked at the list Ling Jiu had ordered and asked in surprise. “Handsome, you sure you can finish all these?”

“Don’t worry!”

Ling Jiu waved his hand, motioning for the waiter to not worry, before looking at Li Kai, asking. “So how’s things recently?”

“Thanks to you, I’ve recently been promoted to the head of the company’s back office. I’m now in charge of over hundreds of people, and is a small-time lead now.”

Li Kai sniggered. “Although I’m nothing compared to a stellar lifeform like you, but at our Lantian Base City, I’m also someone of note now.”

“Man, look at you, a proper department head now.” Ling Jiu filled the beer glass for the two. “Come, lets toast for your promotion and salary raise.”

“Cheers!”

“Ol’ Li, managed to get a girlfriend yet?”

“Just broke up some time ago.”

“Why?”

“A rich lass, and extremely spoiled. She will lose her temper if not served well enough. She scolded my mother a few days ago, and I told her to f*ck off in anger.”

“She dares to scold your mother, asking her to f*ck off is right. This kind of woman is not worth it.”

“Sure is!”

The two chatted as they drank, chatted about work, life, stories of their childhood, and the progress of other students in the class.

“Oh right, how’s that girl Wu Na doing?”

“She? What else? After that last class reunion, she was dumped by that Ai family scion, and although she talked about a few boyfriends, seems like she broke up again.

“That woman seems to want to compete with you, but what does she have to do that? One, she has no Arcana, two, she has no background, so she could only climb up the ladder with her own body, and slowly, her reputation stank, and those rich scions no longer want her.”

“I’ve heard thats he recently got involved with a wealthy businessman worth billions, and he seemed to be an old man, almost sixty…”

“That woman is really…”

“One word: cheap.”

“Yeah, cheap.”

“Hahaha, lets toast to her being cheap.”

“Cheers!”

The two drank happily, and it was soon 12 past midnight. By this time, Li Kai was basically smashed, and was spewing nonsense as he collapsed onto the table.

“Ol’ Li, are you already drunk?”

Ling Jiu prodded Li Kai.

“How can it be? You may be a stellar lifeform, but you’ll never be my match when it ocmes to drinking. You were no match for me back then, and neither will you be now…”

“You’re not drunk? You’re already babbling nonsense.”

Ling Jiu laughed. “Come, I’ll take you home.”

“No! I still can drink! Where’s my beer? I can still drink!”

Dragging Li Kai home, his parents was already asleep, so Ling Jiu quietly put him on his bed, and then took out three items before leaving.

When Li Kai woke up the next day, he saw the three things Ling Jiu had left on the quilt.

“What are these?”

Li Kai rubbed his ringing head as he took up the three items and looked at them one by one.

The first thing was a box, with a few simple words written on it. Ultimate Gene Arcana Secret Technique: Devouring the Stars.

“Is this a Ultimate Gene Arcana Secret Technique?”
