“This change was not a gene that could be achieved through ordinary gene potions. The potion could only be strengthened on the basis of the original gene sequence and could not change in the fundamental sense.
“Therefore, strictly speaking, at the Dao Ancestor’s current realm, his genes had far exceeded the limits of humans. You should also know that genes are genetic. In other words, it was very likely that the descendant of a Dao Ancestor would be an existence far above the realm of ordinary cultivators from birth. This was a very important matter that concerned the future of all mankind. This is for all of humanity, for the future we are all working hard for.”
Zhao Guofeng paused. Then, he looked at Xu Jiajia solemnly and said word by word, “So, Little Xu, are you willing to pass down this gene with the Dao Ancestor? According to all the information and data at the moment, it was very likely that the descendant of the Dao Ancestor was an even stronger existence. Earth has passively entered an interstellar war, so the descendant of the Dao Ancestor will become the most important hope of Earth in the future.”
Zhao Guofeng said these words in one go. Xu Jiajia was completely stunned. Looking at Xu Jiajia, who did not react for a long time, Zhao Guofeng looked a little embarrassed.
“Little Xu, I know this is a little sudden, and I can give you a few days to consider, but…”
To his surprise, before he could finish speaking, Xu Jiajia spoke first. “Chief Zhao, you’ve misunderstood. I’ve been with Su Yun for many years. In fact, if not for the sudden crisis, we might have already started a family. Therefore, I have no objections.”
Xu Jiajia’s words made Zhao Guofeng’s eyes light up. Then, he reacted and nodded repeatedly. “That’s good, Little Xu, I’m relieved to hear that.”
This conversation did not only happen to Xu Jiajia. At that time, Zhao Guofeng and Feng Jiwen had been discussing this matter. Feng Jiwen handed this mission to Zhao Guofeng and asked him to lobby. This troubled Zhao Guofeng.
After thinking about it, Zhao Guofeng decided to start with Xu Jiajia. This decision indeed set a good start. After receiving Xu Jiajia’s response, Zhao Guofeng went to look for Zhou Xiaoxiao, Chen Jie, and Lü Hongya.
Feng Jiwen had personally handed him the list of these people. Clearly, Feng Jiwen had already gone through a detailed investigation before coming. Since they were puzzled by Zhao Guofeng’s sudden arrival, when they learned the purpose of his visit from Zhao Guofeng, they almost had the same surprised expression.
To Zhao Guofeng, the smooth progress of the matter was really unexpected. Before he could finish his righteous words, Zhou Xiaoxiao and the others agreed. The conversation of such content was ultimately a little awkward, so their reactions were the same. After agreeing, they hurriedly left the tent.
It was not until he finished talking to Lü Hongya and obtained her approval that Zhao Guofeng heaved a sigh of relief. In his opinion, this conversation was even more tiring than fighting a battle.
After everyone finished talking, Zhao Guofeng sat alone in the command tent for a long time. Before he could catch his breath, Su Yun’s voice came from outside the tent.
“Old Zhao, Old Zhao?”
Upon hearing Su Yun’s voice, Zhao Guofeng immediately stood up guiltily. Zhao Guofeng and Feng Jiwen did not tell Su Yun about their conversation with them. It was completely in private. According to the plan Feng Jiwen and Zhao Guofeng had previously agreed on, as long as they obtained their agreement, the next step was to find an opportunity to matchmake them as much as possible.
Hence, just as he finished talking to them, Su Yun’s voice came from behind. No matter how strong Zhao Guofeng’s mental fortitude was, he inevitably felt a little uncomfortable.
“Ahem…”
Zhao Guofeng was about to walk towards the door when he saw Su Yun walk in. Looking at Zhao Guofeng’s strange expression, Su Yun was still a little puzzled. “Old Zhao, are you alright? Why do you look so pale?”
“It’s fine, it’s fine.” Zhao Guofeng hurriedly asked, “Dao Ancestor, why are you looking for me?”
“Old Zhao, after the sermon tomorrow, I’ll have to leave for a period of time. Cultivation is about cultivating the mind. Therefore, I also need to enter the world for a period of time.”
Zhao Guofeng’s eyes lit up. This was a suitable time. But he did not show it on the surface and only quickly nodded in agreement. Not long after Su Yun left the command tent, Zhao Guofeng also left in a hurry. Soon, Chen Jie’s figure appeared outside the tent where Su Yun lived.
“Su Yun, are you there?”
Upon hearing the voice coming from outside the door, Su Yun did not think too much about it and quickly agreed. Chen Jie walked in in a white dress. Her literary aura coupled with this white dress made her look a little otherworldly.
“Su Yun, I heard that you’re preparing to enter the human world for a period of time?”
Su Yun nodded before feeling puzzled. “Did Old Zhao tell you?”
Chen Jie nodded and said cautiously, “Coincidentally, I also want to go to the Cangluan Mountain. I wonder if you’re willing to go with me. I’ve been cultivating in peace recently. I also want to go out for a walk. No matter how I think about it, only the Cangluan Mountain has enough deep memories for me.”
The memories Chen Jie mentioned were naturally the times she spent with Su Yun. At that time, everything Zhao Guofeng said when he came to talk to her made Chen Jie’s heart race. She had always hidden her feelings for Su Yun in her heart. In the past, she hid them because of Xu Jiajia. Later, she hid them because Su Yun had become a Dao Ancestor.
Zhao Guofeng’s words were actually just to give Chen Jie the courage to face it. That was why she had appeared here and taken the initiative to invite Su Yun. Looking at Chen Jie in front of her, Su Yun thought for a moment before nodding. After receiving Su Yun’s response, Chen Jie secretly heaved a sigh of relief. In those few seconds, she was really worried that Su Yun would reject her.
“Then let’s set off tomorrow morning. Visiting the old place is also a form of calming down.”
Chen Jie nodded and left. That night, Chen Jie tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time. On the other hand, Su Yun sat quietly on the bed as usual. He only opened his eyes when the sky lit up.
Now, Su Yun no longer needed sleep. Therefore, every night, he would get used to sitting quietly and meditating. Or he could constantly try to open up new powers in his independent spiritual world.
As the sky lit up, Su Yun stood up and walked out of the tent. Soon, he saw Chen Jie walking over in casual clothes. The two of them walked down the mountain together. Zhao Guofeng had already prepared a helicopter the night before. He was standing on the mountain peak, watching Su Yun and Chen Jie’s figures gradually disappear into the distance.
At the foot of the mountain, Su Yun saw the helicopter that had been prepared, but he did not agree to take it.
Since he was entering the human world, he needed to go deep into the human world. Chen Jie also had this intention. She was not as profound as Su Yun thought. She only felt that she could stay by Su Yun’s side for a while longer if she slowly arrived at Cangluan Mountain.
The helicopter pilot quickly told Zhao Guofeng this news. Zhao Guofeng quickly adjusted his plan and got someone to prepare a car.
When the soldier asked if they wanted a driver, Zhao Guofeng immediately stopped him sternly. “Prepare what driver? Give the Dao Ancestor more space and let them go themselves.”
Just like that, Su Yun and Chen Jie got into the car. Looking at Su Yun driving, Chen Jie smiled and said, “I didn’t expect to be able to let the Dao Ancestor be a driver one day.”
Su Yun smiled and shrugged as he drove towards the city. This action was very familiar to Chen Jie. It was as if she was seeing the high-spirited youth from before again.
Su Yun was still the same Su Yun. There were no changes because of his identity as a Dao Ancestor.
