Mu Yuxun asked them if they were also going to Tibet, and everyone looked at him with eager anticipation.
Chu Hao nodded and said, "I don't know what the situation is over there, so you'd better not get too close."
Wang Qi said excitedly, "Brother Hao, we know, but tis have changed. Everyone wants the chance to beco a Yin-Yang Person, so we're all getting together. That way, we can also look out for each other."
Zhang Lili said sowhat excitedly, "Brother Hao, can you take us with you?"
A group of his old classmates looked at him, filled with hope.
Chu Hao was now very well-known. Anyone who got close to him ended up becoming a Yin-Yang Person. Li Yin from his class was one example, and they hoped Chu Hao could help them too.
Mu Yuxun also said with expectation, "Chu Hao, can we follow you?"
Zhang Lili, afraid Chu Hao would refuse, grabbed his clothes and said, "Brother Hao, I used to let you copy my howork all the ti. You have to help out this ti."
Chu Hao felt awkward; aside from Li Yin, Zhang Lili had also been good to him during high school.
"Chu Hao, please help us," everyone pleaded hopefully.
"Brother Hao, my dear brother, rember when we were made to run laps together? When you were thirsty, I even bought you a bottle of water," one of the male classmates said.
Looking at his forr classmates and their eager eyes, Chu Hao suddenly felt…
Very comfortable.
Extrely gratifying.
He was the type who was a bit vain. He had once been a nobody, but now he was a big shot, and the feeling was just different—powerful and commanding.
Chu Hao patted his chest with a magnanimous air and said, "We're all classmates; naturally, I'll look out for you. On this trip to Tibet, Brother Hao will take care of you, and we'll all have a good ti."
"Brother Hao is so commanding!" Wang Qi said excitedly.
"Brother Hao is mighty!"
"Brother Hao, you're so handso!"
Chu Hao was swept away by the adulation of his forr classmates, thoroughly enjoying the sensation. With a wave of his hand, he said, "But rember, you all have to listen to ."
"No problem!" the crowd responded in unison.
His forr classmates, from the rich second-generation kids to the fair, wealthy, and beautiful girls, all had favors to ask of him. This was truly the peak of life; he thoroughly enjoyed it—being the center of attention was simply exhilarating.
On the plane, Chu Hao asked Mu Yuxun, "When did your sister go there?"
Mu Yuxun rolled her eyes and said, "You like my sister that much? I'm such a beauty, and you don't even give a second glance."
Chu Hao replied indifferently, "You're not my type."
Mu Yuxun said, exasperated, "You don't even like the school beauty. I knew it; you only like older won."
Damn, my one preference, and everyone seems to know about it.
Chu Hao said, exasperated, "Who said that? I'll tear their mouth out for tarnishing Brother Hao's reputation!"
Mu Yuxun said with a mischievous smile, "I heard you and Teacher Qiu had a thing."
Chu Hao coughed dryly and said, "Teacher Qiu and I are innocent. Don't go spreading false accusations about us."
Mu Yuxun pouted and said, "Whatever, it's a fact that you like older won. I heard there's a chance to beco a Yin-Yang Person in Tibet, is that true?"
Chu Hao nodded and said, "But it's also very dangerous. We'll only know the specifics when we get there. Call your sister and tell her not to get too close to the Holy City."
Mu Yuxun nodded and made the call.
Then, she ca running back, panic-stricken and with a sob in her voice, "Chu Hao, my sister, she... she's gone inside!"
Chu Hao was startled.
Mu Yuxun cried, clutching Chu Hao's hand. "My father said she was like she was possessed and just went straight in. After getting within a kiloter of the Holy City, she disappeared over the horizon. Chu Hao, you have to save my sister!"
Chu Hao comforted her, "Don't worry, I'll find her."
By the ti they arrived at the airport, Chu Xionghuan had already arranged for a car, and the group headed for the uninhabited region.
Tibet's population wasn't very large at this ti, but people from all over the country, along with quite a few foreigners, were drawn to the Holy City.
The national highway in the uninhabited region stretched across an endless grassland, a road that ran straight ahead. In the distance, the faint outline of a snow-capped mountain shimred, like a scene from a fairyland.
Everyone was looking forward to the trip, hoping for so gains. If they could beco Yin-Yang Persons, it would change their fates.
At this mont, they hadn't yet reached the uninhabited region when, in the car, Zhang Lili suddenly exclaid, "Oh, my God!"
Soone asked, "What happened?"
Zhang Lili, holding her phone which was playing a news report, said, "A wolf has appeared in the Holy City, leading a pack of hundreds, trying to break into the Holy City!"
Emperor Bai Jiang remarked, "Even the Demons can't hold back anymore. I expect more Ghosts and Demons will arrive in the future."
Li Yin asked, "Why can't it get in? Mu Yuxun's sister was able to get in directly."
Emperor Bai Jiang looked towards Shangu Imperial City.
Shangu Imperial City was exhausted. He had been inflicted with a Curse Mark and couldn't escape. He said, "It is said that the Divine Official Palace's passage will only fully open on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, unless there are so special individuals who can enter earlier."
"What sort of special individuals?" Chu Xionghuan asked.
Shangu Imperial City answered, "I don't know. Everything I know is recorded in my notebook."
Chu Hao looked at the toad and said, "Toad, you don't know either?"
This toad acted mysteriously, claiming he ca from the Divine Official Palace.
The group exchanged odd looks, especially his classmates. Besides humans, there was a Toad Spirit here—quite an unusual one, wearing only a pair of shorts, standing upright like a human, with well-built limbs.
The toad pursed his lips and said, "Kiddo Chu, don't test . Of course, I know what he ans by 'special individuals.' It refers to people with a special aptitude."
"What kind of aptitude?"
The curious crowd all turned to listen, even Shangu Imperial City, who had researched this for a long ti without understanding the situation.
Seeing everyone looking at him, the toad said unhurriedly, "A bunch of mortals."
The crowd was speechless, feeling an urge to beat up the toad.
The toad went on, "Actually, the Divine Official Palace isn't sothing from Wo Country's historical records—forget any nonsense about incarnated divine officials. The so-called Divine Official Palace is a ruin from the Ancient Path Civilization."
The crowd was astonished.
The toad looked contemptuously at Shangu Imperial City and said, "What do you know? Wo Country is too small a place, a re tribute nation barely heard of."
Shangu Imperial City's face turned red, but it was indeed the truth; Wo Country was insignificant in ancient tis.
The toad continued, "The so-called Divine Official Palace was established by the combined efforts of Taoism, Buddhism, and the Loose Saints. It was once known as 'The First Palace of the World,' aid at eradicating evil to preserve peace and subduing demons to protect the people. Since the Divine Palace housed a mix of various forces, the common folk simply referred to it as the Divine Palace."
So that was how it was. What Shangu Imperial City had said—all those tales of gods descending to earth—had indeed seed far-fetched, and Chu Hao hadn't truly believed it from the start.
The toad said, "The aptitude I'm talking about refers to being recognized by Taoism, Buddhism, and the Loose Saints; only such individuals can enter unconditionally."
Mu Yuxun exclaid, "Does that an my sister has this aptitude?"
The toad nodded. "That's right. Your sister has stumbled upon a great opportunity."
Naturally, Mu Yuxun was thrilled.
The toad chuckled. "Of course, there's also the possibility that she'll join Taoism, or even beco a monk."
Mu Yuxun's expression changed. Her sister might beco a monk?
Wang Qi said excitedly, "Does that an we all have a chance?"
