22 Heading Back Home

After making a deal with Liu Kai, the two sold their gatherings and then split their earnings with Ye Qin having a larger portion of the earnings due to Wang Tao insisting it. Ye Qin could only agree since the fatty was so insistent and didn't want to waste time arguing with the former

The two then left the building and called Wang Tao's chauffeur to pick them up. The guards that the boys had seen when they entered the association building saw two familiar teens and said to each other "Aren't those two the brats who entered a few weeks ago?" Guard A asked

"You're right it's definitely them." Guard B replied

"So they survived huh, they must've stayed close to the base or else they wouldn't be able to come back." Guard A said trying to convince himself

"Naturally." Guard B replied

Once Wang Tao's chauffeur arrived and the two boys entered the car, the chauffeur said "Young Master! You survived! Thank goodness, I didn't know what to think when the Master said you and Young Master Ye were going to the Abandoned Lands!"

"What the? Did you just curse me? Of course, I survived? Who do you think I am? Even if I didn't my Boss will survive for sure and bring my corpse back to the Wang's to be buried!" Wang Tao shouted at his chauffeur

"Young Master! You must not mention such a thing! It may bring misfortune upon you! A death flag they would call in Japanese culture!" the old driver replied

"..."

"You sure watch a lot of anime..." Wang Tao said

"Hahahaha, it's the only thing I can do to pass time since I'm already so old," he replied

"Tch, what a weeb." Wang Tao hissed as he closed his eyes and slept

"..."

Ye Qin sitting next to him didn't say anything as he took a sip from a bottle of juice

Though humanity had advanced greatly, Television shows, Cartoons, Anime, Drama etc still exist to this day which meant that the ancient culture of the past was never lost and only became a greater influence in the present time

...

Once they arrived at the Wang's mansion it was a bit past noon, the two boys went inside the house to be greeted by Wang Tao's mother who cried for a while and hugged her son before making them lunch

After lunch, Wang Tao sent a message to his dad to tell him that they would visit him which he welcomed with open arms. Ye Qin next to him asked "Don't you think your dad has a lot of free time? I mean as the President shouldn't he have a pile of work to do? Instead, he just lets us come and go as we like and see him whenever."

"..."

"You're right..." Wang Tao replied

"Right?" Ye Qin said as the two headed towards the Wang's company driven by the old chauffeur once again

...

In the President's office, Father Wang just finished signing a load of paperwork and instructed his secretary to take them out of the office. He then sat in his chair and contemplated for whilst the two boys knocked on his door

Knock* Knock*

"Come in." Father Wang said as he got off his chair and sat down on the couch across from the two boys

"Welcome back, you're just in time for the final exam." Father Wang said before looking at Ye Qin's

hat

"That's new." he said

"Yea..." Ye Qin replied

"Anyways, did you two enjoy the trip? Any danger?" Father Wang asked

"Of course! But since it's us no matter the danger we will come back fully intact!" Wang Tao said as he began narrating their journey and took away the part about the Great Sage

"..."

"..."

"You two, to encounter such a foe and to even defeat it. The future belongs to the young generation, the new will surpass the old. This saying is without a doubt correct." Father Wang said

After narrating, Wang Tao also said "Oh yea, we also met a girl our age with white hair! She even had a dragon!"

"What? A dragon? Wait did you say white hair?" Father Wang asked again

"Yep, white hair and a dragon." Fatty Wang replied

"I see, don't mention this to anyone. The two of you might be in danger if they know that you two made contact with 'her'." his father said seriously

"Huh? Danger?" Wang Tao asked

Ye Qin next to him tapped Wang Tao on the shoulder and told him to be quiet and agree with his eyes. Since his boss told him to, he naturally kept quiet as the two of them wondered why they would be in danger

"Enough of that, it's about time for you two to go home. Especially you, nephew Ye, your parents must miss you." Father Wang said

"Yes, I will be heading home now, Uncle Wang. Thank you for the temporary pass." Ye Qin bowed as he left the father and son duo to chat

...

By the time Ye Qin arrived home, it was already past 3 pm. His father at work and his sister at school, Ye Qin only saw his mother who jumped into his arms and hugged him without saying anything since her son had decided what he wanted to do

Ye Qin told his mother that he only stayed around the edges of the Abandoned Lands and that he is confident in passing the final exams which brought her great joy and relief as he went up to his room

That night, Ye Qin sat on his bed and focused his mind into his monster sea whilst the Monkey King released it's 72 Transformations and revealed its true form
