After becoming famous in a single battle, what Luo Chen did not expect was that this time even the military had begun to take notice of him.
In the end Ye Zhengtian invited everyone to a small banquet held at Sea Moon Bright. Of course Luo Chen was the focus of the entire banquet.
After the banquet ended Luo Chen returned to his room. Then he could not wait any longer and crushed that wolf fang pendant. Inside was a black seed.
This seed was only slightly shrivelled. It did not look completely dried up like the previous one.
Luo Chen took out the dragon vein and used the power of the dragon vein to nourish it for a while. Soon the seed became completely plump.
However Luo Chen looked at the dragon vein with some heartache.
Because that red thread had clearly become thinner and shorter.
Luo Chen actually wanted to nurture that dragon vein into being. But unfortunately this world no longer allowed it.
There is a saying that after the founding of the nation spirits are not allowed to become refined.
In fact this is because this world does not permit it. Back when Huang Taiji and Nurhaci entered the pass they destroyed the great dragon vein of the Hua Xia land. This caused the fortune of Hua Xia to decline. After the wars and destruction in the late Qing dynasty the fortune of this world had fallen to its lowest point.
In order to recuperate and restore the dragon vein heaven and earth directly stripped away all fortune. That is why the situation arose where after the founding of the nation no spirits are allowed to refine themselves.
Setting aside the dragon vein Luo Chen began to fuse with that seed. He placed it between his brows. Immediately a surge of black light erupted over Luo Chen’s body. The entire room was dyed black.
When the black light dissipated Luo Chen’s bones crackled all over. Although his cultivation had not increased substantially Luo Chen knew that with his current strength even without using the protective aura of the Taihuang Scripture he could now block bullets.
Moreover not ordinary bullets but he could withstand the super intense firepower of an AK47 or a Gatling gun.
At least on the surface these small arms could no longer threaten Luo Chen.
At this moment the phone rang. It was Wang Fei calling.
“Luo Chen I have found several engineering teams here. They are all in talks right now. By the way do you remember Xu Wenbing?”
“That guy is also running an engineering team now. After he heard that I have the Panlong Bay project in hand he said he wants to organise a class reunion and invite me. He asked me to call you. Why don’t you come tonight too? Anyway this matter will ultimately need your decision.”
“Forget it. I will not go. You go and decide.” Luo Chen refused.
Luo Chen still had some impression of Xu Wenbing. Back then they had both pursued the class beauty. In the end Xu Wenbing succeeded while Luo Chen ended up with Zhang Xiaoman.
Speaking of it there was some small grudge between them. However in Luo Chen’s eyes that small grudge had long passed. After all Luo Chen was no longer the same Luo Chen as before. His experiences in the cultivation world were far beyond what ordinary people could compare to.
“Come on Luo Chen. We are all classmates. For my sake come and have some fun. Just treat it as catching up.” Wang Fei persuaded.
Because over there Xu Wenbing had begged him to be sure to bring the boss of Panlong Bay out to meet.
There is a saying that class reunions are just for showing off. Luo Chen was really afraid that his class reunion would turn into that too.
After all for Luo Chen he seemed to have nothing worth showing off.
But in the end after Wang Fei’s pleading Luo Chen did not want to completely disregard Wang Fei’s face. So he reluctantly agreed.
Soon evening arrived. The location of the class reunion was arranged at Sea Moon Pavilion.
Luo Chen drove here. He remembered the last time he came he even had a fight here.
Luo Chen had just parked the car when the boss of Sea Moon Pavilion came out personally to welcome him. After all even his own boss Hong Biao had to treat Luo Chen courteously and fawn over him.
How could the boss of Sea Moon Pavilion dare to neglect Luo Chen?
That night he had personally seen Luo Chen take down dozens of people. That scene was too frightening. So when he saw Luo Chen arrive the boss personally opened the car door for him.
“Master Luo you are here.”
“Yes. I have a class reunion. It seems to be in private room number eight.”
“Then Master Luo shall I lead you there?”
“No need. You go ahead and busy yourself. I will go by myself.” Luo Chen waved his hand. He felt it was better to go over first himself.
But Luo Chen checked the time. It seemed he had arrived a bit early.
No matter. He had just contacted Wang Fei. Wang Fei seemed to be stuck in traffic and would take a while longer to arrive.
Walking into private room number eight there were already several people inside.
The leader was a young man in a deep red suit wearing sunglasses with slicked back hair. He looked extremely fashionable and successful. Moreover he had deliberately thrown a set of BMW keys on the table in front of him as if intentionally showing off.
Luo Chen glanced over. It was exactly Xu Wenbing. In his memory Xu Wenbing had always looked down on him since university. Plus after successfully winning the class beauty he had deliberately used that to humiliate Luo Chen several times.
The other few people were also dressed well all in famous brands. It seemed that after leaving school everyone had become very successful.
In comparison Luo Chen looked very casual. He wore a set of black sportswear with no brand on it. He appeared quite shabby and casual.
At this moment several people were gathered around Xu Wenbing chatting and laughing.
After leaving university Xu Wenbing had actually done quite well. Because his family was fairly wealthy he had started his own engineering team.
He remembered that back in school everyone secretly mocked that his father worked on construction sites. Only after entering society did they realise that some jobs were not even as good as working on a site. Moreover his father was a contractor who only needed to supervise. There was no need for him to do the work himself.
The reason he organised this class reunion this time was because Xu Wenbing heard that Wang Fei had a big project. Even in Tongzhou this was a super large project.
But to be honest Xu Wenbing and Wang Fei had no real connection. It was like that in school and even more so after entering society they had never contacted each other.
So in order to secure this project he deliberately held a class reunion. The reunion was fake. Getting close was real.
But when Luo Chen walked in Xu Wenbing was stunned.
Because he had not expected Luo Chen to come too.
However after glancing at Luo Chen’s clothes he could not help but sneer inwardly. It seemed this guy was doing very poorly.
Moreover although Luo Chen did not hold a grudge over what happened back then that did not mean Xu Wenbing had forgotten. Back then this guy had dared to pursue the class beauty at the same time as him. It was something the whole school knew about. Of course Xu Wenbing won the class beauty while Luo Chen became a joke.
But since they had met today he would definitely humiliate the other party properly.
Thinking of this Xu Wenbing stood up and spoke in a deliberately generous tone.
“Isn’t this Luo Chen?”
