âWhat the hell?!â All the familiars on the familiar highway knelt on the ground, shivering.
The rainbow-haired guy was stupefied for a second and turned around to look at Gao Peng in a daze.
It seemed that this man had just introduced himself as Gao Peng?
Gao Peng smiled shyly. âThat should be me... Itâs calling for me.â
âWhat the... this is da bomb!â
âItâs all right, I guess?â The gloom at the bottom of Gao Pengâs heart had dissipated quite a bit.
âGao Pengggg!â The sound wave went past his head as the creature continued to fly to the east.
âGao Peng, ah...â
The sound drifted away. Overhead, it sounded as though a bomber plane had just flown by.
Gao Pengâs face darkened. âThis fool overshot the distance again!â
Finally, people on the highway watched as a mountain dashed into a personâs arms and the same person turned to leave with a mountain in his arms.
âDonât you think... Gao Peng... Doesnât that name sound rather familiar?â Rainbow hair scratched his head.
Sitting in the back, a young man with glasses took out his textbook from his schoolbag, pointed to the cover of the textbook, and said, âIs this him?â
â...â
Another man beside him stood up and exclaimed, âOh my gosh!â
...
âGao Penggg, where have you been all these years? Why couldnât I find you?â Stripey carefully said to Gao Peng.
It was as though it was afraid that Gao Peng would accidentally disappear again and make them wait for hundreds of years.
âArenât I here now?â Gao Peng looked into the distance with a smile.
With a splat, a silver jellyfish landed on Gao Pengâs face like a mask. Gao Peng immediately fell backward on Stripeyâs back.
It wasnât easy to detach Silly from himself. Gao Peng gasped heavily.
âWhy are you so silly, even after hundreds of years?â Gao Peng chided Silly.
âBecause Iâm your Silly.â Silly smiled cheerfully.
âDo you know where Da Zi and the rest are?â Gao Peng thought that the first one he had to meet upon returning was Da Zi.
âI donât know, but I know where the Dragon Ant is,â said Silly.
âThen letâs go to the Dragon Ant first.â Gao Peng nodded.
At the same time, in a very luxurious manor outside the City of Hope, Goldie was wearing a suit and had its hands behind its back. Flamy wasnât far behind, but the current Flamy had lost a lot of weight.
Behind Flamyâs butt was a sharp-beaked duck with a green body. It looked like both Goldie and Flamy and had very little hair.
âWhy are you always following me? Go follow your father!â Flamy said in annoyance.
The little green duck behind Flamyâs butt pulled back its neck and cried, âDaddy, Daddy is ugly...â
Goldie, who was walking ahead, stumbled.
It turned its head with a frown. âLittle Flamy! Come here. How is your father ugly?! Gao Peng used to praise me for my alert looks!â
Little Flamy retracted its head and said carefully, âDad, who is Gao Peng?â
Upon hearing Gao Pengâs name, Flamy and Goldie seemed to be in a trance.
Goldie rubbed Little Flamyâs head. âGao Peng is your fatherâs trainer.â
Trainer? Did his dad even have a trainer? âI only knew that Father was super powerful. Does such a powerful father still have a trainer?â
âOf course he does! It was because of Gao Peng that your father got to know your mother.â
â...â
âThe Dragon Ant is in this castle?â Gao Peng asked Silly and watched as Silly nodded.
When Stripey landed, there was a great commotion in the palace below.
Gao Peng looked at the signboard hanging on the palace and said, âVientiane Palaceâthatâs a good name.â
âWho dares to intrude the Vientiane Palace?!â Two figures rose from below.
Before they could speak, a faint shadow burst out of the palace. âMaster!â The Dragon Ant knelt in front of Gao Peng excitedly.
There was an uproar on the sidelines.
The leader of the Vientiane Palace, one of the top two palaces known among the whole human race, was actually calling a strange man its master in public.
This was absolutely earth-shattering news!
âAre you at the King God level? Youâve worked hard. Youâre much better than Silly and Stripey, those bums,â Gao Peng said with great relief.
âIâm not a lazy bum,â Silly protested.
Since Gao Pengâs disappearance, Stripeyâd had no thoughts of cultivation. It just laid there every day and slept. Its body was now covered with trees, and it was only at the peak of High God.
âLetâs go. Letâs not float in the sky,â Gao Peng said to the Dragon Ant. He knew that the news of his return wouldnât be kept a secret. The news would spread, and the people who wanted to see him would come there.
âWhat is this Vientiane Palace?â
âIt was Grandpa Jiâs idea. Since I can replicate rules, Iâm allowed to practice and teach in the Vientiane Palace.â The Dragon Ant was slightly embarrassed when it said this.
âThen wonât you have to replicate many rules?â Gao Peng suddenly realized how cunning his grandpa was.
âItâs okay. It has only been about 70 or 80 kinds, and many of them are repetitive.â
âBy the way, Master, youâll be very happy to see these two people!â The Dragon Ant suddenly slapped its head.
In another place, Ji Hanwu, who had retired from his role as governor, received the news of Gao Pengâs return from his people.
Ji Hanwu was so excited that he couldnât even pay attention to his fishing rod! âLetâs go! Get Xiao Gao and Yixue!â
âMom and Dad!â Gao Peng couldnât hold back his excitement.
âLittle Peng.â Ji Yixue hugged Gao Peng.
After a short time sharing news with each other, Gao Peng heard of his parentsâ experiences.
At the beginning of the disaster, due to the space cracks, his parents had entered Shidi after they died and become trainers in the Ten Mahayana Netherworld.
The Ten Mahayana Netherworld was a very large space. Gao Peng had once looked for his parents, but he hadnât found any trace of them.
After the human race successfully conquered Jiutian Shidi, Gao Dongguo and Ji Yixue were finally reunited with Ji Hanwu.
In addition, Gao Peng also met the Magical Brain, the White Clam, Flowing Light, Goldie, Flamy, and Xiao Cao.
âWho is this little fellow?â Gao Peng teased Little Flamy, who was hiding behind Flamyâs butt.
âIâm Little Flamy!â said the little fellow boldly before it shrank back.
âYouâre cute. I hope you become as strong as your father,â Gao Peng encouraged the small duck.
Little Flamy stretched out its head and replied defiantly, âI donât want to!â
âWhy?â
âBecause Daddy is ugly!â
âHahahaha.â The yard was full of laughter.
âGao Peng, Iâve been looking after your company for you all these years.â Goldie wasnât angry at all. In fact, it couldnât stop giggling at Gao Peng.
Flamy sighed secretly. It hadnât seen the baldie so happy in all the years since Gao Peng had left.
âWhy donât I see Da Zi, Desolion, and Fatty Big Sea?â Gao Peng noticed that they were still missing a few people.
âMaster!â A steady, powerful voice rang from outside the door.
Dumby pushed open the door and entered. Behind it was Xiao Hua, who had already broken through to the Beginner God level.
âDumby!â Gao Peng and Dumby caught each otherâs eyes and gave each other a firm hug.
âI always knew you would come back.â Dumbyâs deep voice echoed in Gao Pengâs ear.
Goldie sighed and shared the news it had. âFatty Big Sea is now married. Six hundred years ago, it found itself a wife. Then Fatty Big Sea, who was then still a High God, lost to its wife, who was also a High God. Since then, Fatty Big Sea started on its journey to being a house husband and shows no signs of returning.â
âI havenât seen Desolion in a long time. I only saw it once, 30 years ago. If there was someone who changed the most, it would be Desolion.â@@novelbin@@
âHow much has it changed?â Gao Peng was curious. He could feel through the Blood Contract that Desolion was still alive.
âHumph, are you speaking ill of me when Iâm not around?â There was a flash of silver, and the one-eyed lion stood in the yard with its head held high.
âYouâve collected all six saint lions,â Gao Peng said.
âHow do you know that I just finished collecting them?â Desolion was surprised.
âBecause youâre six colors now.â
Desolion was stunned into silence.
âWhereâs Da Zi? Why hasnât Da Zi come?â Gao Peng frowned, slightly worried.
âDa Zi has long since known you were back. It was the first one among us to know,â Goldie said.
âI see.â Gao Peng nodded. He was familiar with Da Ziâs petty ways.
...
âDa Zi?
âDa Zi?â
Gao Peng jumped down from the valley.
On a small island in the middle of the valley laid a dragon whose head was buried in the earth. Its butt was facing the sky.
âWhy donât you answer me when I call you?â Gao Peng smacked Da Ziâs hind legs.
âIâm not angry!â
Distressed, Da Zi flicked its tail.
âHey, you ugly creature, why are you so petty? Just because I didnât look for you first, do you have to be so petty? I donât think your issues with pettiness can ever be cured.â
âYes, I know.â Da Ziâs tail swung again.
Gao Peng helplessly went to Da Ziâs head and patted the back of Da Ziâs neck.
âWhat are you doing?â Da Zi questioned.
âHello, ugly. I want to show you something.â
Da Zi pulled its head out of the soil. It was all muddy. It stared at Gao Peng. âIâm notââ
Gao Peng hugged Da Ziâs head and gently kissed it on the forehead. âIâm back, and this time, Iâll never leave.â
