Chapter Seventy-One: Back to School Campus

  Guo Ming did not expect his mother to come up with this theory, but thinking about it, there are indeed many unknown spaces in the world, only humans do not have the ability to open them. Guo Ming did not open these spaces, but instead created an independent space that belongs to him alone, and as long as one's magical powers are not far beyond his own, no one can think of opening anything within this space.

  "It can also be said that Guo Ming nodded with a smile."

  "Can you give me one? Then I can just throw things in it when I buy them." Yu Xia's eyes lit up immediately.

  Guo Ming shook his head and explained in a soft voice, "Mom, this thing is not something that people without certain abilities should think about owning. Actually, finding an alternative method is also possible, as long as I can find enough materials, I can refine storage rings for you to use. It's just that rare materials on Earth are too scarce, making it a luxury."

  Yu Xia let out a sigh, her face full of disappointment.

  Guo Zheng then looked at Yu Xia with a more open mind, pulled her hand and said: "Even if you have such ability tomorrow, it's not something that can be given to you for refining. You should understand the principle of 'a common man is innocent, but one who holds jade is guilty'. Think about it, what if someone with ill intentions discovers that you possess a treasure storage artifact, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?"

  Yu Xia's eyebrows rose in surprise and she exclaimed: "What did you say?"

  "Haha, no, I'm talking about myself, it's me," Guo Zheng hastily said.

  Yu Xia finally let go of the soft flesh around Guo Zheng's waist and gently massaged it.

  Guo Zheng then secretly let out a sigh of relief.

  Guo Ming looked at his father and noticed a hint of worry on his face. He smiled and said, "Dad, is it because things haven't been going well with the business lately?"

  Guo Zheng nodded and then let out a sigh. Yu Xia said, "Your dad doesn't want to fall out with his old friends, but now the whole company is in a mess because of them. And you're still in closed-door training, so the whole company has been left with nothing but an empty shell."

  "Is it that serious?" Guo Ming furrowed his brow and asked, "Then what are you going to do, Dad?"

  "I have made up my mind to break and then stand, reorganize the company, but only lack of funding sources," Guo Zheng said in a low voice.

  "That can be used by both of your uncles for some turnover," Guo Ming replied.

  "The construction industry is booming now, and I'm preparing to develop in this field. With little investment, it's hard to achieve remarkable results, just like pouring water into a leaky bucket. Your uncles' business has also been struggling lately, and their food factory isn't doing well either."

  Guo Ming hesitated for a moment and asked: "How much money is missing?"

  Guo Zheng suddenly raised his head and exclaimed, "Ming Er, why are you asking this? Although you have magical powers, your father doesn't allow you to do anything illegal."

  "On the contrary, since I'm a cultivator, saving people should be no big deal, right? Dad, you tell me, would some rich people be willing to spend tens of millions to buy a life?" Guo Ming said with a light smile.

  "Tomorrow, you're saying you want to treat illnesses and save people, but don't you have a business license?" Yu Xia asked in surprise.

  "Haha, there are too many unwritten rules in this society, right, Dad? I don't believe you can't get it done, just leave the money to me, said Guo Ming with a smile."

  Guo Zhengze thought for a moment before saying, "Are you sure there won't be any problems tomorrow?"

  Guo Mingzheng nodded heavily and said, "Don't say he's got an incurable disease, as long as his soul hasn't scattered, I can save him."

  "Is it that fierce? Guo Zheng then was truly surprised this time."

  "Can an ordinary person be compared to a cultivator who has seized the creation of heaven and earth?" Guo Ming said proudly.

  "Alright, I'll take care of this. I'll try my best to get everything for you. Where is the clinic located? Guo Zheng was really helpless at this point and gritted his teeth as he agreed to his son's request."

  "Of course it's a bit far from our home, I don't want to be a celebrity, Dad, I'm still a student now," Guo Ming said with a light smile.

  As soon as this was mentioned, Yu Xia immediately asked: "Ming Er, it's been over a month since the second year of high school started, and your dad just helped you apply for a one-year leave last month. Are you still planning to go to school?"

  "My current magical powers have reached a bottleneck, and there won't be any major breakthroughs in the next few years. I'll just quietly savor the mundane world for now, so let's just say I'm an ordinary person. Learning is something that must be done, so here's what we'll do: three days from now, Dad will take me directly to high school, and I'll review my first-year knowledge over the next few days."

  "Okay, I'll buy you a book this afternoon," Yu Xia said happily. From her subjective perspective, she still hopes that her son can live a normal life, flying and hiding is good, but such a life is disconnected from reality, she is powerless to do anything about it. As a mother, she doesn't know what she can do for her son, when she sees her son covered in blood, her heart is deeply pained.

  Cats are extreme animals, when the mother cat feels that she is unable to protect her kittens, she will tear them into pieces and swallow them into her belly, because in their understanding, only by putting them in their own belly can they be safest. In fact, from a certain perspective, which mother does not dote on her children, they do not allow their children to suffer even the slightest harm. Yu Xia hopes more deeply that Guo Ming will return to being the original fighting delinquent youth, at least she can grasp his future.

  Guo Ming nodded towards his mother's gaze and said softly: "I was an ordinary person, from now on I won't let you worry about me."

  A lone figure of Guo Ming walked quietly along the shaded path in the middle of the school.

  The scene just now still flashes in my mind, when Guo Ming asked to go directly to the second year of high school, several teachers strongly opposed it. When Guo Ming completed all the math and science exams for the first semester of the first year with full marks within half an hour, they immediately shut up and instead asked Guo Ming to join their class.

  Guo Ming chose a middle-aged teacher who had not asked him any questions at that time. He did not want to enter some experimental class, his purpose was very simple, to make his life as ordinary and simple as possible.

  Gradually, Guo Ming discovered a group of people, most of whom were running in one direction, and soon the crowd grew larger.

  Then a young man ran and accidentally bumped into the stone, falling forward. Guo Ming dodged and stretched out his hand to catch the young man who was about to fall.

  "Oh, thank you, he said with a lingering fear."

  "No need," Guo Ming smiled and nodded, "Why are you running so fast?"

  "Don't you know? The basketball prince is going to confess to sophomore classmate Shui Mengyao in public today, but she doesn't understand."

  Shui Meng Yao, these three words once again flashed into Guo Ming's mind, and he couldn't help but lose his train of thought for a moment. The girl wearing the big red heart, her sweet smile, her tender cheeks, and her childish gesture of waving her small fist at him... It had been over a year, maybe she had already grown up to be a big girl now! He really didn't know how she would turn out after more than a year. But one thing was for sure, she would definitely become even more beautiful.

  "Who is the basketball prince again?" Guo Ming asked with a smile. After more than a year of life-and-death training, his heart had become even more determined than before, and when it came to emotions, he could be said to have almost closed off completely. No girl could easily open the door to his heart, which was locked not by external chains but by an emotional lock. Even Shui Mengyao, the girl who had once stirred ripples in his heart, only made him feel a slight flutter now. As for heartache, it wasn't even worth mentioning.

  Whether or not he wants to be an ordinary person, Guo Ming has to take a look.

  On the basketball court, thousands of people gathered to watch, and they had always been extremely curious about the golden boys and girls in school. Li Jia, a senior three student, was a legendary figure in school, the president of the basketball club, handsome and elegant, and unknowingly the secret crush of many girls.

  Shuǐ Mèng Yáo, the school's acknowledged beauty queen, has been the sensation of the entire No. 1 Middle School since her freshman year, and is praised as a rare beauty who appears only once in ten years. Many people have high hopes for the two of them; in terms of family background, one is the son of the county party secretary, and the other is the daughter of the deputy county head, absolutely a match made in heaven.

  Unfortunately, Li Jia had been pursuing her for a year without success. Today, he decided to make a century's grand confession of love. The basketball court was filled with 999 roses, each one fresh and tender, with dew on them, looking like they were just picked.

  The basketball team spent two hours setting up a heart-shaped balloon arch with two arrows through it, and the names "Shui Mengyao" and "Li Jia" were written in large red letters on either side of the heart. The meaning behind this is obvious, even to an idiot.

  Shui Mengyao stared blankly at the numerous roses on the playground, her pretty face flushing red. As they say, "girls change greatly after turning 18", and indeed Shui Mengyao was even more beautiful than before, with delicate features like a porcelain doll. She wore a white long-sleeved shirt with a large Pikachu picture on her chest, adding to her playful and endearing demeanor. At this moment, she pinched the hem of her clothes, completely at a loss for what to do.

  It's been a long time since I've had an outburst, now I'm going to have one, and it's going to be a big one...
