Chapter 289: Chapter 201 Washing Machine_2

Thus various topics were brought up, the most classic of which was "historical characters’ power rankings," "if the modern-day Holy Grail War really started, which of the following characters would be the strongest"...

The public always enjoyed comparing battle strengths.

But seriously, don’t be surprised if one day this ridiculous question becomes a reality under the influence of supernatural powers.

Before long, the takeout arrived, and Zhou Yuan called out Fang Qing to eat together.

"What kind of item did you get from this mission?" Fang Qing asked as she picked up a skewer.

"A really quirky item, would you like to try it?"

Fang Qing immediately became cautious. Judging by Zhou Yuan’s expression, she knew it wasn’t something good. She shook her head repeatedly, "I don’t want it!"

"So, what exactly is it?"

"It’s a washing machine, and its effect is to forcibly trap a woman’s upper body inside," Zhou Yuan explained with a pained expression.

Fang Qing: "..."

"It really fits your style," she sharply commented.

"You’re asking for trouble!" Zhou Yuan fumed. What do you mean by fitting my style? I’ve always been righteous with excellent conduct!

All the disreputable behavior was done by a side account, what does it have to do with my main account!

Fang Qing hurriedly hid in the cultivation room, avoiding the risk of being trapped in the washing machine and assuming that shameful posture.

She had her dignity to uphold!

...

After finishing the barbecue, Zhou Yuan wiped his mouth, took out paper and pen, and began thinking about his future life goals.

After a long while, he started writing.

[Short-term goals]: Elevate mental psychokinesis to level four, continue to attract more fans, try to master the Return to Ruins, and capture more extraordinary pets.

[Mid-term goals]: Collect divine fragments, completely resolve the threat from Nangong Yi, gather as many musical cursed objects as possible, accomplish the "kill the musician" mission, and establish the Origin God Cult in the real world.

[Long-term goals]: Ascend to godhood.

After finishing, Zhou Yuan stared at the paper for a long time, then wrote another line.

[Long-term goals]: Ascend to godhood. Stay alive. Win over Chen Guangxi.

With the rise of the transcendent, a golden era was about to come. It would be the best of times, but also the worst of times. Even true gods might fall.

In the surging tide sweeping across all heavens and myriads of worlds, staying alive was the only truth.

As for that last one...

Zhou Yuan pondered for a moment, then crossed it out and rewrote it under [Short-term goals].

It had to be done quickly without delay.

Exhaling deeply, Zhou Yuan put away the paper and first attempted to contact Raven.

If he could get some divine fragments from Raven, that would be ideal. From a person of that caliber, even a little bit could make him extremely powerful.

Unfortunately, there was no response from the other side; she was still out of touch.

"Hmm... I wonder if Aio might be of any help."

Zhou Yuan thought of Aio. As a powerful reality distortionist, creating some divine fragments out of thin air shouldn’t be too difficult.

He decisively dialed Aio’s number.

On the other side, on a sunny beach, Aio, lying on a lounger under a parasol enjoying the sight of women in swimsuits playing in the sea, answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"It’s me, Zhou Yuan."

"Oh, Saint Heir!" Aio, now a member of the Holy Crow Church, felt this greeting was appropriate, "What can this weak, pitiful, and helpless writer do for you?"

"I want to get a few divine fragments, do you have any connections?" Zhou Yuan went straight to the point.

Aio scratched his head, feeling a bit troubled, "It’s possible but challenging. I could write a few books and then extract the divine fragments directly from the stories, but the problem is..."

He glanced around at the stern-looking, terminator-like guards in black suits, helplessly saying, "I’m currently under the Control Bureau’s supervision and can’t easily use my abilities. Even going to the restroom, there’s someone watching me, making it days since I had a good bowel movement."

"Huh? Aren’t you in the Holy Crow Church?" Zhou Yuan raised an eyebrow. Could it be that the Control Bureau had come to arrest him directly?

"Considering the huge mess I made, the Control Bureau was bound to notice me," Aio sighed. "Even the goddess had to give face to the Control Bureau."

"After negotiations, both parties agreed to confine me temporarily on a Holy Crow Church-owned anomalous plane, with Control Bureau personnel monitoring me until I’m deemed harmless.

Honestly, this is already a good outcome for me. At least it’s not a permanent imprisonment or a life sentence.

As for the divine fragments..."

Aio shrugged apologetically, "Sorry, I can’t help for now, maybe you could wait until I’m out."

"Alright."

Zhou Yuan wasn’t disappointed. Instead, he was a bit excited, which indicated that this method was feasible, and he just needed to wait for Aio to be "released."

"By the way, I have another question."

"What?"

"That explicit book you wrote, ’Loner,’ is it based on your personal experiences?" Zhou Yuan asked the question that had always piqued his curiosity.

"Of course not." Aio laughed, "I’m not someone who would do as he pleases just because he has power. That book is nothing special, just a typical explicit book."

He stroked his chin, "But if you ask if there’s something special about it, well, there is one thing."

"What’s that?"

"Since it’s a creation of my reality distortion ability, you can enter the book’s world through certain special methods and experience the protagonist’s joy according to the plot... Hey, do you think immersive novel world experiences have a market?"

Zhou Yuan’s mouth opened and then he nodded fiercely, "Absolutely, there’s definitely a market for that."

"It seems like a good idea, so I’d better hang up now and see how to develop this business."

Aio stretched lazily, "People always need to find something to do."

"Remember to hire me for promotion, I’ve got a huge fan base now." Zhou Yuan saw it as a potential goldmine and wanted to get involved.

"No problem."

In the afternoon, Zhou Yuan boarded a plane leaving Xinyue.

He was heading to Xinheng City, where the Cave Heaven Blessed Land would open in about half a month.

Currently, Xinheng City had become one of the most watched cities in the extraordinary world. Numerous forces, organizations, and civilian extraordinaries were gathering there, hoping to gain benefits from the Cave Heaven Blessed Land.

On Zhou Yuan’s flight alone, there were over a dozen extraordinaries from around the world.

Unfortunately, there were no international fugitives without eyes; otherwise, he could have made a quick buck.

A few hours later, the flight landed smoothly without any explosions, crashes, or hijacking incidents.

Exiting the airport, Zhou Yuan took a deep breath of the fresh air. The greenery work in Xinheng City was outstanding, and with a recent light rain, the air was especially moist and clean.

It was quite uplifting.

Suddenly, the roar of an engine resounded, and a fiery red sports car drove up and stopped in front of him.

"Hey," Chen Guangxi looked at him in surprise, "What a coincidence, what are you doing here?"

Zhou Yuan was moved, "Did you come to pick me up on purpose?"

"Huh? Oh yes, yes I did," Chen Guangxi laughed, "I came here to pick you up, isn’t that touching?"

"Excuse me, please move aside."

A slightly immature voice came from behind. Zhou Yuan turned around to see a boy who barely reached his waist, dragging a huge suitcase.

This boy had waist-length hair, red lips, white teeth, a tender face, and a slender figure exuding a youthful charm with a hint of intense allure.

Whoa, where did this effeminate boy come from?

Zhou Yuan was startled and gasped. If not for the Eyes of Identification, he would have mistaken this beautiful boy for a girl.

This charm was terrifying, almost comparable to his own!
