"Where do we find a new body?"

Young Master Fu was taken aback.

"Heaven has shown mercy and granted us the chance for a reunion of the three of us, while also preparing a body for you. That fellow named Zhang Lingfeng possesses a Divine Grade Spirit Root. When he arrives at the Star Gate, I’ll find a suitable opportunity to use the Possession Technique to help you obtain his body."

Elder Fu couldn’t help but glance at Zhang Lingfeng through the window and said.

"A Divine Grade Spirit Root, this... I’m worried..."

Young Master Fu looked shocked.

"Don’t worry. Offering his body to you will be his honor."

The woman replied domineeringly.

"Mother, you misunderstood. I’ve been tormented endlessly under Mengba’s hand for decades, living a life worse than death. Now that I’ve been given a second chance, if I could possess a perfect body and return to the peak, I’d do anything to exact revenge."

Young Master Fu’s knuckles turned white.

"If not for our Fu Family, Ancient Blue Star during the Great Crossing River Era would have perished long ago. They owe us. Blame the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance for putting our Fu Family in front. After all these years, the Fu Family’s Primordial Qi has only recovered less than the Third Layer."

Fu Shanhai spoke with unquestionable authority.

At his cultivation level, ordinary life and death hold little significance. Let alone a Zhang Lingfeng, he wouldn’t hesitate to wipe out the entire Qin Family, burn Divine Bull Country to ashes, if it meant bringing Young Master Fu back to the peak.

However, under the balance of the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance, Fu Shanhai dared not openly use the Possession Technique to let Young Master Fu replace Zhang Lingfeng’s body.

Additionally, possession is considered an act against fate and rules, deeply tied to Sea of Consciousness Power. Even someone like Fu Shanhai cannot guarantee a hundred percent success in the possession.

If Zhang Lingfeng’s Sea of Consciousness Value were at one hundred percent, his Divine Thought evolved, forcing possession would only result in backlash, possibly even leading to Young Master Fu’s soul being shattered.

This is the real concern for Young Master Fu who said, "If possession fails, Father would suffer backlash, and my soul would be destroyed."

"Fear not, my son. When the time comes, I’ll prepare a foolproof plan. Unless Zhang Lingfeng’s Sea of Consciousness Value reaches one hundred percent and he possesses the cultivation of a Great Divine Thought Master, his body will eventually be yours."

Fu Shanhai said confidently.

"Thank you, Father."

Young Master Fu exclaimed excitedly.

The family of three embraced each other tightly.

...

"Elder Fu, feels like you avenged Young Master Fu and restored human dignity. Promised that when you go to the Star Gate for cultivation, each of you will receive a resource subsidy." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Jiang Nan said enviously.

"What?"

"That’s wonderful."

"So Elder Fu is Young Master Fu’s father."

Both Zhang Lingfeng and Qin Qianyu were overjoyed by being recognized by the Star Gate Elder, it was indeed an exciting matter.

"Star Gate experts stirred up the depths of the ocean. I’m worried about problems along the coast; we’d better hurry back."

Lu Jin said.

"Indeed, human traitors are everywhere. Even in Divine Bull Country, claiming to be the Alien Demon Beast forbidden land with numerous Beast Masters, there are Fish Demons impersonating humans to participate in martial exams. Great Xia’s situation must be even more grave.

Moreover, after you two achieved top scores in the continent exams, successfully killed Bihai Night Ghost. I suspect the disguised Demon God creatures and those human traitors will surely try to undermine Great Xia’s prosperity and stability.

They might even go to great lengths to eliminate both of you."

Jiang Nan said with a solemn expression.

Whether it’s Alien Demon Beasts, Undersea Fish Demons, or extraterrestrial figures, every encounter with humans often ends in relentless pursuit, regardless of victory or defeat.

Both Jiang Nan and Lu Jin believed that the peaceful era following the Great Crossing River Era would be coming to an end in the next few years.

"Then let’s quickly set out back."

Zhang Lingfeng thought about his uncle’s family.

They were still in South City.

Although the Demon Beast creatures of the Great Radiation Zone had been eradicated, there’s no guarantee that other Undersea Great Demons wouldn’t return there.

In fact, Jiang Nan and Lu Jin’s predictions were correct.

Gu Xiaohui led Zhang Lingfeng and others into the depths of the ocean, slaughtering Fish Demon Sea Monsters, although venting some anger for humanity, it also angered Undersea Divine King Mengba.

"Damn it."

"Curse you, Zhang Lingfeng and Qin Qianyu. Before you enter the Star Gate, I shall crush you to pieces."

Hou Laosan’s face twisted angrily.

Using Young Master Fu’s now useless body to exchange for two drops of Five Elements Spirit Liquid was the Undersea Divine King’s order, having Red Crocodile Demon and Black Tiger Demon sabotage human continent exams, making humans a laughingstock, was also the Undersea Divine King’s command.

Yet Bihai Night Ghost was slain by Zhang Lingfeng and Qin Qianyu at the continent exam site.

Gu Xiaohui even led a group of martial students from the continent exam into the ocean’s depths, finally recruiting them all into the Star Gate, which was a great humiliation to all Fish Demons and the Undersea Divine King Mengba.

Therefore, Hou Laosan didn’t gain any advantage.

Not only did he fail to receive any reward, but also got slapped by the Undersea Divine King, who ordered to annihilate Zhang Lingfeng and Qin Qianyu along with all the martial students from the continent exam before they entered the Star Gate.

Hou Laosan had no retreat, so he landed from the Yue Hou Country’s waters and after changing his appearance, entered Great Xia’s domain. As a human traitor, he only needed to hide his presence to walk freely in human territories like a common man.

And with the assistance of human traitors,

he quickly entered Jiangbei Province’s domain.

The next night.

Zhang Lingfeng returned to Jiangbei Province by airship.

Returning with top marks from the continent exam, and helping restore human honor, he smoothly became a Star Gate Outer Disciple, Zhang Lingfeng returned in glory.

King of North of the River Zhao Kuo, Ao Dagang, Mr. Huo, Ming Cheng, and even Ku Xuanhe from Vast Sea were waiting at the airport.

As for Qin Qianyu, he had already returned to the Qin Family.

"Mr. Zhao, Master Ao, Mr. Huo..."

Zhang Lingfeng walked down from the airship, greeting each of them. Upon seeing Ku Xuanhe, his eyes lit up, surprised at his coming from Vast Sea.

Apparently, the relevant departments were worried Jiangbei Province might face retaliation from Fish Demon Sea Monsters, so they arranged Ku Xuanhe to guard here.

"Congratulations on becoming a Star Gate disciple. Earlier I had foolishly thought of taking you as a student, it was truly wishful thinking."

Ku Xuanhe exclaimed.

He hadn’t expected Zhang Lingfeng would achieve first place in the continent exam, even defeating Qin Qianyu, who possessed a Super Grade Spirit Root.

"Mr. Ku, you overpraise me. Actually, I think it would be an honor to become your student."

Zhang Lingfeng said firmly.

Ku Xuanhe was stunned, feeling somewhat moved by Zhang Lingfeng’s serious expression, but then he laughed, "Let’s leave the disciple affair aside; come, I’ll introduce you to someone."

"This is your academy’s dean, who will stay in Jiangbei Province for a while to look after you and ensure you reach the Star Gate expert safely."

Ku Xuanhe led Zhang Lingfeng into an RV.

Inside sat a bald man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, spinning Buddhist beads.

The moment their eyes met, the bald man released a blue hue, and Zhang Lingfeng felt almost drawn into the other’s consciousness.

The bald man looked surprised.

The words Divine Thought Master surfaced in his mind.
