Chapter 1959 Pandemic

"Give me legs?" Lei Hao stared, stunned.

Yun Lintian retrieved the Fruit of Immortality and presented it to Lei Hao. "Take this."

Lei Hao examined the exotic fruit radiating a strange aura. He reached out cautiously to receive it. Glancing at Yun Lintian for confirmation, he took a bite.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

The moment the fruit touched his tongue, a warm current surged through Lei Hao's body. It was incredibly comforting.

Yun Lintian placed a hand on Lei Hao's head, activating the crown's power to transform his profound vein.

Moments later, Lei Hao's legs gradually grew back, and his appearance reverted several years, making him look younger.

"Unbelievable..." Lei Hao felt as if he were in a dream. The long-lost sensation of his legs had returned.

"Congratulations," Yun Lintian said with a smile. "You are now a cultivator."

"A cultivator?" Lei Hao echoed, stunned. He rose slowly from the wheelchair, experimenting with his "newborn" body.

He could clearly perceive his newfound strength.

"I'll teach you some profound arts later," Yun Lintian offered. "Do you have any money on you?"

"Money?" Lei Hao stammered, surprised. "Yes, I have some."

As he spoke, he retrieved his mobile phone.

"Let's go!" Nantian Fengyu chirped with excitement. If not for Yun Lintian's warnings, she would have stolen a phone long ago.

Yun Lintian grasped Lei Hao's arm and whisked him to the nearby shopping mall.

"So, this is a movement technique?" Lei Hao gasped in shock, finding himself standing in the mall in the blink of an eye.

"Yes," Yun Lintian replied, surveying the mall. "Why are people wearing masks?"

"There's a pandemic called COVID. It just started three months ago," Lei Hao explained.

"Oh?" Yun Lintian cocked his head slightly. "This is clearly a man-made virus."

"Really? I knew it," Lei Hao agreed readily.

Yun Lintian waved his hand, and instantly, all the COVID viruses vanished from the Earth. "Done."

"Done?" Lei Hao was confused.

All the soldiers around the courtyard instantaneously collapsed unconscious.

Lei Hao gulped nervously at the scene. Ordinary people were powerless against cultivators.

"Can I do that someday, Boss?" he asked hopefully.

"Certainly. Even beginners can manage that." Yun Lintian chuckled and entered the courtyard.

At that moment, Xu Longfeng sat upright in a pavilion, engrossed in a book.

"It's been a year, and you've aged considerably, Uncle Xu," Yun Lintian spoke as he entered the garden.

Xu Longfeng's expression froze. He slowly raised his head, eyes widening in disbelief. "You... Lintian?"

"It's me," Yun Lintian confirmed, approaching the pavilion.

"Long time no see, Uncle Xu," Lei Hao greeted kindly.

"Your legs...?" Xu Longfeng subconsciously looked at Lei Hao's legs, utterly bewildered.

Ignoring Xu Longfeng's confusion, Yun Lintian sat down opposite him. With a wave of his hand, his own teapot and cups materialized. He then poured tea for everyone.

"Please," Yun Lintian offered, placing the teacup in front of Xu Longfeng.

Xu Longfeng was too preoccupied to care about the tea. He stared intently at Yun Lintian's face, trying to verify his identity. "What's happening? How are you...?"

"It's unimportant. The key point is that I'm alive," Yun Lintian said with a smile, taking a sip of tea.

"What tea is this, Boss?" Lei Hao gasped after taking a sip. He could feel his body strengthening.

"Spirit Tea," Yun Lintian replied.

"Spirit tea?" Lei Hao acknowledged with a nod, continuing to sip the tea with a content expression.

"Let's move on from my situation," Yun Lintian suggested. "Perhaps you could tell me what happened, Uncle Xu?"

Xu Longfeng took a deep breath to compose himself. "Since you're here, I presume you already have an idea. Nonetheless, I'll recount the entire ordeal."

He gently lifted the teacup, about to take a sip, when he paused. "Wait. How did you bring them out of thin air?"

It was only then that Xu Longfeng noticed the oddities. Yun Lintian's group had arrived unharmed, with no sounds of battle.

Yun Lintian simply smiled, offering no explanation.

Xu Longfeng recognized his rudeness. "My bad. I shouldn't have asked. Well, it all began after I submitted Project Eve to my superiors..."
