“It seems that even Mother Star isn’t completely safe,” Wang Xuan shook his head.

“You’re the one to talk, earlier you charged at that demon while we could have just stayed hidden,” Lin Cheng protested.

She was very worried about Wang Xuan’s safety. If he got hurt, it would be really bad. She had checked him over multiple times just to ensure he wasn’t injured.

Wang Xuan said helplessly, “If I don’t kill it, it will keep coveting me. At the very least, it will hunt others. Tell me, how can I let it go?”

“Hmph, playing the hero!” Lin Cheng snorted, holding Wang Xuan’s hand.

Regardless of whether he was a true hero or just playing one, Wang Xuan was a hero in her heart.

After a Celestial Dew Rain, Earth underwent expansive growth, affecting the global economy as people were now working full force to restore their homes.

In some places new land suddenly emerged, while others were invaded by vegetation, with roads and streets even cracking open.

Even with the Federation’s technological prowess, it would take nearly a month to rebuild things to their original state.

People were linking up with each other. This Celestial Dew Rain was an opportunity; some broke through realms, while others slept through it, widening the gap between individuals in just an hour.

The villa district suffered significant impact. Wang Xuan and Lin Cheng were busy cleaning, both inwardly resentful.

They hadn’t spent a single night in this villa.

“Xuan, do you think that demon sees you as Ginseng Fruit Tang Monk’s Flesh? Will other demons target you?”

She asked this, and her heart couldn’t help but tighten at the thought.

Wang Xuan pinched her cheek, “There aren’t that many demons on Mother Star. Every sighting leads to a sweep to eliminate them. They’ll barely have time to hide.”

Lin Cheng nodded but noticed Wang Xuan’s mischievous grin, “This piece of Tang Monk’s Flesh, others would be desperate for it. Just a bite can increase one’s cultivation level.

If you eat it, you’ll quickly enter the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.”

“Stop talking nonsense, how could I eat your flesh?” Lin Cheng replied.

With an arrogant expression Wang Xuan watched Lin Cheng stomp her feet with reddening cheeks, and dash into the villa.

“You rascal!”

“Yes, I’m a rascal, and I’ll eat you this swan meat someday,” Wang Xuan’s laughter echoed far.

In the social circle, everyone shared their status updates to ease the concerns of family and friends. Of course, the unlucky sought sympathy and the lucky gained bragging rights.

At this time, he couldn’t help but check. Most people’s physiques had significantly developed, though financially everyone suffered some losses.

Wang Xuan’s family home was in the mountains, where vegetation grew rapidly. The Spirit Plant his parents cultivated grew considerably, which was something to be happy about. The couple was busy trimming branches.

“Son, are you safe?” His father asked, followed by another question, “How’s your physique?”

Wang Xuan replied, “My cultivation level has surpassed yours, and I’ve found a good master. My future is not an issue; I’ll bring a wife home in a couple of years.”

“Good! Your ‌Lao-tzu‌ will be waiting.”

After checking Su Xiaowei’s social circle, he found out her and her aunt’s house was deemed unsafe, likely requiring funds for reconstruction, and currently, they were moving things.

Fortunately, for residential area reconstructions, the Federation would subsidize a large portion, requiring not much money. As for the villa district, that’s out of the question.

“I still have some of my stuff there, seems like I need to make a trip.”

Wang Xuan turned to inspect Su Xiaowei’s villa, similarly overtaken by vegetation, with oversized bugs and ants everywhere. The villa appeared as if it hadn’t been tended to for years.

“If the young girl sees it, she’d probably cry,”

He scratched his head, fearing Su Xiaowei’s family’s house damage would force them to move here and face such a headache.

Without spending millions of Star Yuan, restoring it is impossible, given the foundation is intact. Otherwise, reconstruction would be needed.

Innate Gang Qi scattered, slicing the villa’s weeds with hundreds of steel blades, exterminating bugs, ants, and mice, before Wang Xuan paid the property manager to fix up the two villas, then left.

Arriving at the residential area, Wang Xuan saw the empty grounds filled to the brim with stacked furniture and clothing, everyone collectively moving.

This unfortunate zone birthed new land, akin to a rubber piece expanded with a dilator pushing in a small piece, causing the original to crack at the edges.

Thus, naturally, houses in the residential area were unlucky. Although not earthquake levels of disaster, the original surface was deformed by pressure, the foundation essentially ruined.

Damages like these exist in a mere one percent of homes globally, this is due to the land’s growth being randomly centralized. If expanded evenly, global structures would be problematic.

Su Qiubai, Su Xiaowei, and Bai Yuzhen deposited belongings on the grass. Sitting on the ground, they gazed at the cracked houses with sighs.

It wasn’t about the money, but being there so long had formed an emotional attachment. Dismantling and rebuilding now, they were truly reluctant.

“When is Big Grizzly coming back? The old house hasn’t been sorted, we’ll let him deal with his stuff once he returns. It’s not right to mess with personal items,” Su Qiubai grumbled repeatedly.

Su Xiaowei carried a backpack with belongings in it, hugging a large box filled with years of drawings and within it, a never-wilting rose.

“How come as soon as I return, I hear someone talking bad about me? How come I didn’t know I had the nickname Big Grizzly?” Wang Xuan arrived, making Su Qiubai’s face turn red.

With a simple tidy-up, Wang Xuan threw his items into the Storage Space, tearing apart the markings on the living room wall with Gang Qi.

“Why not move to the villa district to stay? Though it needs some touching up, overall it’s in good condition and fine for living.”

Wang Xuan’s suggestion was agreed upon by the others. Renting a truck, Wang Xuan easily moved their items, transporting them to the villa district.

The two villas are merely a few hundred meters apart. After tidying up, Wang Xuan invited them to dinner.

“Sounds great!” Su Xiaowei immediately replied.

However, Bai Yuzhen declined, leaving the young girl’s face to droop sadly.

“You’ve been troubled enough today, another day at our home, we must prepare something to thank you properly. Making you treat us is inappropriate.”

Bai Yuzhen, a young and beautiful urban woman with impressive physique, features, and aura, is evident through her two even more outstanding nieces.

Nonetheless, she seemed to guard against being too close to men, fearing Wang Xuan might have ill intentions, leaving him feeling helpless.

Was he that type of person?

That evening, Wang Xuan and Lin Cheng shared dinner. Both made progress in their cultivation levels, requiring them to enhance their control, to unleash their newfound capabilities.

Wang Xuan didn’t rest that night. He sat on the villa district’s grass, gazing skyward.

This was because of what his master He Fang said, that on the day the Celestial Dew Rain falls, there will be a big explosion of opportunities.

Mother Star’s origin had devoured a world. Many fragments from the Otherworld would fall to Earth, eventually becoming Celestial Treasures upon catalyzing with Origin Power.

As for some high-level energy clusters, they would fall randomly. Even True Immortals would be tempted by such clusters, though they appear too randomly and are often caught instantly by some lucky ones, entering their bodies.

These high-level energy clusters are known as Celestial Fate Sources, precisely the Source Power that Wang Xuan desired dreamily.

The Celestial Fate Source would be absorbed rapidly by lucky ones, speeding up their cultivation to the point of incredible genius transformation.

Who is deemed a lucky one?

That depends on fortune.

Those with fortune have a greater likelihood of receiving the Celestial Fate Source, as it is a gift from the heavens, an opportunity.

Whoever is more favored by Mother Star will naturally be more likely to win the lottery.

“I seem to have pretty good fortune, my Pillar of Fortune surpasses many disciples from Human Immortal Realm’s Mountain Gate, heaven shouldn’t forget me.”

Wang Xuan contemplated, but his master He Fang also warned that these luck-based events aren’t assured. If his time hasn’t come yet, he won’t obtain it.

“If I don’t luck out, then it’s all down to strength,” Wang Xuan considered.

As for how to rely on strength? Naturally, it’s about using your fists, ahem, persuading people to voluntarily give it up.

He gazed at the sky as hours passed, counting stars in boredom, eyes never leaving it, afraid to miss out.

“It’s here!”

Wang Xuan’s spirit was invigorated. In his vision, thousands of meteors streaked across the sky, scattering white light clusters, appearing for mere breaths before vanishing.

The Celestial Fate Source was incredibly swift, its whereabouts elusive, impossible to determine where it would land.

“I seem to have seen several headed towards the newly developed area?”

Wang Xuan’s heart jumped. He disliked relying on luck most of all, for it was too unpredictable.
