Chapter 290: Chapter 244: Striving to Adapt, Sect Discord (Requesting Monthly Tickets)_2

"Even some Immortals... might think so."

Zhang Yu felt a sinking feeling in his heart upon hearing this, suddenly overwhelmed by a suffocating sensation.

The words "useless class" struck him like a heavy hammer on his chest, trying to wake him from the ease of recent life.

Zhang Pianpian continued, "I have a lot on my plate right now."

"If you encounter troubles you can’t solve, you can contact the True God."

"The same True God you’ve added as a friend..."

Zhang Pianpian seemed indeed busy, and her conversation with Zhang Yu ended shortly.

On the way back, Zhang Yu watched the disabled beggars by the roadside, seemingly envisioning the future state of the first layer of Kunxu.

"It’s none of my business."

"This is the world’s order."

"What can a high school student like me do?"

Realizing his helplessness, Zhang Yu sighed, suddenly getting a bit annoyed: "Why the hell can’t I just adapt?"

"Zhang Yu, you’ll be rich in the future."

He kept telling himself, "If you want to be wealthy, take care of those around you, and live a good life, you damn well have to adapt to this crappy world of Kunxu!"

"Otherwise, what do you expect to do? What can an ant without Foundation Establishment achieve?"

Amidst Zhang Yu’s swirling thoughts, Fu Ji suddenly said, "Repeat what Zhang Pianpian told you and the others to me."

To avoid exposure, Fu Ji chose to completely hide herself before entering the Patrol Team building.

After Zhang Yu came out and reawakened her, he repeated Zhang Pianpian’s words to her.

Hearing Fu Ji’s question now, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen retold what Zhang Pianpian had said.

Fu Ji murmured, "Hmm... she spoke so cautiously, perhaps because someone monitored your conversation."

Zhang Yu was shocked, "Monitored? Someone’s against us?"

Fu Ji said, "It’s not uncommon for cross-layer calls to be monitored, but for Zhang Pianpian to be so careful, maybe it relates to hidden information in her words."

Fu Ji analyzed, "Some people above believe the first layer is done for; even some Immortals think so."

"She says some people, not everyone."

"She advised you only to take your wages, not get involved in Oasis Group’s business." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

"Doesn’t that suggest..." Fu Ji pondered, "Some people think the first layer is done for, but others don’t?"

"If some Immortals support Oasis Group’s actions, doesn’t that mean some don’t?"

"So she feels Oasis Group might get caught in a struggle between the two sides, hence advising you not to get involved in their business."

Zhang Yu’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, thinking, "Oasis Group, Nether University, Netherworld Sect’s actions... like a demonic sect. Could there be an orthodox path in Kunxu too?"

Zhang Yu said, "So, there could be other righteous sects that can’t stand such demonic behavior and might stop them?"

Fu Ji said, "Whether it’s righteous or demonic, if other sect forces intervene, it surely aims to limit Netherworld Palace’s power expansion."

"Just like how many areas above forbid mortals from breeding, setting resentment discharge standards, only because other sects lack Immortal Path tech in this regard, thus using this tactic to limit Netherworld Palace."

"Now, even if other sects intend to stop Oasis Group, it’s surely due to their self-interest."

Zhang Yu chuckled bitterly, thinking, "Indeed, that’s Kunxu for you. I still haven’t fully adapted, to even have such naive thoughts."

Bai Zhenzhen questioned, "Yet, up until now, Oasis Group hasn’t been stopped, right? Their plan’s going smoothly."

Fu Ji mused while contemplating, "Maybe... they just haven’t been stopped yet."

"After all, with Oasis Group’s activities, many aristocrats get eliminated, vast resources gathered, Foundation Establishment exams spread wide... if that’s what another faction desires, they might go with the flow?"

Zhang Yu couldn’t discern if Fu Ji was right or wrong, but he memorized Zhang Pianpian’s words deep in his mind.

...

Time flew to August, just a month before Zhang Yu became a senior in high school.

The entire Songyang City had entered the scorching summer season.

Zhang Yu’s bank account numbers had reached a whopping 44 million.

Yet Zhang Yu found as Kunxu’s first layer prices soared, the Heavenly Spirit Root he wanted to buy also skyrocketed to 58 million.

However, with Zhang Yu’s current income, he could tolerate this price increase, and with a few more months of savings, he could buy the Heavenly Spirit Root to establish his Foundation.

That night, his phone rang.

Zhang Yu saw it was a call from Zhao Tianxing, with a note he added: Everyone laughs at you, yet you’re the funniest.

This phrase reminded Zhang Yu of Zhao Tianxing’s clown theory, causing a slight smile at the corner of his mouth.

He answered the call, asking, "Lao Zhao, what’s up?"

But a strange woman’s voice came from the other end: "Is this Student Zhang Yu?"

Zhang Yu frowned slightly, only to learn it was Zhao Tianxing’s mother.

The reason for the call was because Zhao Tianxing was in trouble.

"After his dad lost his job, someone dragged him into gambling, and without us knowing, he secretly mortgaged Tianxing’s flesh to Oasis Group..."

"I managed to scrape enough money to redeem him, only to find out Oasis Company said the flesh had already been sold..."

"You’re familiar with the leaders of Oasis Group, could you help us get Tianxing’s flesh back? We can pay for it..."
