Chapter 698 A Change in Mentality

The sky gradually darkened.

After a picnic, Chu Tian and the others finally arrived at their living quarters on Dengxian Island.

The orange-yellow light from the heavenly tribulation was no longer present here.

Upon arrival, the group didn't wait and proceeded up the mountain path.

From a distance, the place looked vast.

However, upon entering, Chu Tian and the others were truly shocked.

This place was like a sect on a celestial mountain.

Training rooms, practice grounds, and a tower for collecting ancient texts and cultivation methods.

It was completely equipped…

Chu Tian suspected that before the Zheng family discovered it, this place might have been a magnificent cultivation sacred land.

Later, for some unknown reason, it was abandoned and then found and occupied by the Zheng family.

“Shall we look around?” Miao Zuo suggested.

“No…” Chu Tian quickly interjected.

“We don’t know if there are any dangers here yet. This place is very unusual; it might be protected by formations or something!”

Chu Tian disagreed with Miao Zuo’s suggestion.

The others nodded in agreement.

After all, this was an unknown area.

“Then what do we do now?” the others asked.

Chu Tian pondered for a moment and turned to look at Miao Zuo.

“This grand formation, isn’t it supposed to be shrouded in mist? It’s not completely dark outside yet, but here it feels like midnight!”

Chu Tian pointed upwards at the swirling mist, which seemed to shroud the area under dark clouds.

It made one feel somewhat oppressed…

“Uh, I forgot!”

Miao Zuo scratched his head.

Then, he took out a formation disk.

He tapped on several locations on it.

*Hum…*

The sky trembled slightly.

The dense mist descended and dispersed.

It was like opening a skylight.

“Boss, here… this is the formation plate that controls the entire Sumeru Grand Formation. I remade it after repairing the formation!”

Miao Zuo handed the formation plate in his hand to Chu Tian.

Chu Tian glanced at it and pushed it back.

“From now on, formations will be your and Lin Ran’s responsibility!”

After speaking, Chu Tian looked up at the sky.

There were no traces of any formations visible in the sky.

It was as if it had merged with the outside world.

The time was now dusk.

The setting sun cast its golden rays into the area.

“Let’s… just settle in for today!

This place is so large, it can’t be explored in a short time.

Oh, right… if I remember correctly, Fortress Showdown is supposed to open tomorrow, right?”

Chu Tian said this, then suddenly changed the subject and looked at Gao Kai.

Gao Kai was taken aback and nodded, “Mm…”

“Where’s Xi Xi jie?” Chu Tian suddenly remembered that all his brothers were here.

Gao Kai’s wife, his executive chairman, was not.

Gao Kai’s expression was strange when asked this, and he said with a half-smile, “You still have the nerve to ask? Your chairman is a complete hands-off manager!

Do you know how busy Xi Xi is right now with the new expansion pack about to launch?”

“Emmm…” Chu Tian was instantly embarrassed by the retort.

“Brother…” Luo Yi Yi, Zhang Cheng Cheng, and Chen Yu Er walked over together.

“Hmm?” Chu Tian saw the three of them together.

His face became even more embarrassed.

“You guys…” Chu Tian glanced at Zhang Cheng Cheng.

The latter immediately lowered her head, her face almost buried in her chest.

Chu Tian’s eyes also narrowed, and he shifted his gaze to Chen Yu Er.

The latter’s eyes also moved, but she didn’t look away.

Instead, she stared intently at Chu Tian.

It was Chu Tian, however, who became a little shy under her gaze.

He quickly averted his eyes, finally landing on Luo Luo.

Luo Luo had a gentle smile, and within that smile, she seemed to see through Chu Tian completely.

Chu Tian’s heart skipped a beat, and he thought: Why does it feel like she knows everything?

He glanced at Zhang Cheng Cheng again, and he immediately felt guilty.

“Brother, I wanted to ask you something…” Luo Luo said.

“Ah? What… what is it?” Hearing this, Chu Tian felt even more guilty.

Although being with Zhang Cheng Cheng was an accident.

But, after all…

“Why are you stuttering? You’re acting very strange today!”

Luo Luo frowned and stared at Chu Tian.

“I… am I?” Chu Tian swallowed.

“You’re not?” Luo Luo’s lips twitched.

But she quickly suppressed it and continued, “Never mind, I wanted to ask about the Huang Corporation… how do you plan to deal with Huang Xueyi?”

“Phew…” Hearing Luo Luo’s question.

For some reason, Chu Tian let out a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart.

In that moment, facing Luo Luo.

He felt more oppressed than when facing the heavenly tribulation.

There was even a sense of fear…

However, when Chu Tian heard Huang Xueyi’s name.

His eyes immediately narrowed.

Since his rebirth, Huang Xueyi had always been a thorn in his side.

But at first, he lacked the strength.

Later, he gained some understanding of the man.

The Huang Corporation was not what it seemed on the surface.

Their family was more than just businessmen.

Therefore, Chu Tian had always been hesitant to act against him.

This was because, before returning from the Sea of Death, he was indeed pathetically weak.

After returning, as soon as he entered the game, he was hunted by that idiot An Su.

This led to him fleeing to the General’s Hall and leaving Blue Star once again.

This time, Ye Ling was in danger, and Chu Tian had to deal with the affairs of the Ninth Office first.

At present, it seemed like it was time to deal with Huang Xueyi.

The hatred from his previous life had been lingering until now.

Letting Huang Xueyi live this long was already a favor.

If Huang Xueyi only had the strength and backing that he displayed on the surface.

It would be as simple as crushing an ant to deal with him.

Thinking of this, Chu Tian felt a surge of desire.

He really wanted to go now, to appear before him with an air of superiority.

And then make him kneel and repent.

However, upon further thought, repent for what?

Huang Xueyi had no idea about the matters of the previous life.

Was he supposed to make him repent for stealing his thunder? For snatching Yu Xue away?

Thinking of this, Chu Tian’s expression became strange.

It seemed that just for this matter, Chu Tian didn’t hate him.

Looking at the three women before him.

If it weren’t for this series of events, how would he have met Luo Luo again?

Without meeting Luo Luo, how would he have met Zhang Cheng Cheng?

Without Zhang Cheng Cheng’s attitude towards him, how would he have rushed to her door and beaten her soundly?

It seemed… after he had beaten her up.

Her attitude towards him had undergone a huge change.

She even pretended to be his girlfriend and boarded the Feilong,

And they even stayed in a couple’s presidential suite.

As for Chen Yu Er.

Chu Tian had never expected to see her again in this life.

Moreover, she seemed to have developed feelings for him.

The reason was that during Chu Tian’s second illusionary realm experience in the minor world of the Holy Spirit Realm, a hallucination occurred.

For Chu Tian, it was an illusion.

However, it had affected Chen Yu Er’s dream on Blue Star.

A romantic encounter dream.

It made Chen Yu Er remember her high school classmate.

And a mysterious good feeling emerged.

Therefore, at this moment, although Chu Tian’s hatred for Huang Xueyi had not diminished.

He suddenly didn’t want to crush him directly anymore.

Instead, he wanted to…
