As time passed, they got closer and closer to the outside world.
He could faintly see a faint light in front of him.
The surrounding walls were already covered by countless black shadows.
In front of him, behind him, above his head, and below his feet.
Dense Mi Luotuo filled every inch of space.
A deathly silence and terrifying atmosphere filled the surroundings.
Perhaps sensing Zhang Ruochen's presence, all the Mi Luotuo on the mountain gathered.
They didn't attack and didn't dare to get too close.
There was only one action.
Kneel down!
Zhang Ruochen was like a green lotus descending from the heavens, like an immortal. His body was not stained at all. Under the worship of countless Mi Luotuo, he slowly walked out of the Zhang family's ancient building.
The sunlight that he had not seen for 200 years shone on his body.
"Welcome, ancestor!"
The moment they stepped out of the crack, Zhang Qishan and Adjutant Zhang knelt down in unison, their voices like a loud bell.
Should I kneel?
Qi Tiezui looked around and couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
Apart from him and this old ancestor, there didn't seem to be any other creatures standing…
Wasn't it too conspicuous?
"Kneel, kneel! If the legend of this ancestor is true, then he can be considered the ancestor of the old nine sects. We should kneel!”
Qi Tiezui didn't struggle for too long under the powerful aura. He gritted his teeth and knelt down as well.
Zhang Ruochen narrowed his eyes and exhaled.
With the support of the undying body, he quickly adapted to the sunlight.
"Get up." he said calmly.
Zhang Qishan quickly got up and reported,""Ancestor, should we return to Star City first, or…"
"Since you've asked me to come out of the mountain, then go to Star City first.”Zhang Ruochen said.
If he remembered correctly, there was a piece of Meteorite Copper in the mine.
It probably had something to do with his meteorite pendant!
Zhang Qishan looked at his adjutant, who ran all the way to arrange his return to Star City.
After spending a week, they finally returned to Star City.
Zhang Ruochen finally found the modern lifestyle from his dusty memories. He changed into a simple black Taoist robe.
He was now living in a secluded courtyard in Star City. If he wasn't unwilling, Zhang Qishan would probably find someone to help him with his meals.
"Ancestor, are you satisfied with your stay?”
No one had expected that the head of the Nine Old Gates, Lord Zhang, who was usually very dignified, was serving a young man like a manservant.
Zhang Ruochen glanced at him and said,""Is the training of the army going smoothly?”
Hearing this, Zhang Qishan's face almost turned green.
He had always taken protecting the people as his duty. However, when Zhang Ruochen arrived, he scolded him.
How could such a small number of soldiers protect Satellite City?
Zhu Yuanzhang, that idiot, is countless times more enlightened than you!
Immediately after, this old ancestor gave him the location of more than ten buried treasures and asked him to send someone to retrieve them.
Looking at the countless antiques and jewelry in front of him, Zhang Qishan felt lucky for the first time in his life.
Inviting this ancestor might be the best thing he had ever done in his life!
In this chaotic world, wealth was the foundation of everything.
Moreover, in Zhang Qishan's position, he could only expand the new army and upgrade his armaments with money.
After selling these antiques and jewelry through his own channels, Zhang Qishan excitedly arranged for the construction of the new army.
At the same time, he did not forget about the mine. He constantly sent people to investigate the Japanese and the mine.
Since his ancestor was in Star City, Zhang Qishan suddenly felt a great sense of confidence and security.
"Forefather, this is the current situation of our Zhang Clan.”
Zhang Qishan was busy, so he let Deputy Zhang take care of the ancestor.
Even with Zhang Ruochen, the Zhang family was still in decline.
Most of the Zhang family's main family was scattered throughout the country. The war had caused the family's strength to be weak, so they could only hide among ordinary people.
Even the various secret books were lost, and they could only rely on each Zhang family member to recite them.
"I've already informed the main family. The clan leader will soon bring people to pay a visit to you, ancestor.”Zhang Rishan said.
"Not for now." Zhang Ruochen shook his head slowly.
The war in Star City was approaching, and there was no need to involve the entire Zhang Clan.
"I'll give the order now!" Zhang Rishan quickly said.”
"What's going on at the mine?”Zhang Ruochen pondered.
"This…We have already sent people to seal off the mine, but according to our subordinates, there seem to be many people lurking nearby. They should be the Japanese forces.”Deputy Zhang said.
"Time is of the essence, there's no need to wait any longer.”
Zhang Ruochen handed several pieces of paper with the location of the treasure to Adjutant Zhang.
These were all his equipment!
Before arriving at the Zhang family's ancient building, Zhang Ruochen had already read his fortune. He knew that some accidents would happen.
Therefore, he hid most of the equipment that he did not need in the location that he had prepared beforehand.
Now was the time to retrieve these things.
Because it was the order of the ancestor, Zhang Qishan moved quickly. Within a week, covered carriages drove into Star City and entered Zhang Ruochen's mansion.
This strange movement immediately attracted the attention of the entire Star City.
"Mysterious mansion? And a lot of treasures? How much did Lord Zhang lose?”
To the Old Nine Gates, they naturally thought that Zhang Qi Shan had fallen and earned countless treasures.
Many people took action upon hearing the news. The other families sent people to inquire about the situation, wanting to get a share of the loot.
Only Qi Tiezui knew that Lord Zeng had not only lost a big fight.
They even invited a living ancestor from inside!
