Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group
Chapter 1217 - 1192: Reward from Nezha
At this moment, Ye Chen was also panting, feeling somewhat exhausted.
If there were any more powerful celestial thunders, he wouldn’t have a way to deal with them.
"Fantastic, my disciple, you’ve already avoided the celestial thunder tribulation," Taoyi Immortal said excitedly.
Shen Gongbao and Ao Bing had expressions of disbelief on their faces. This man in the yellow robe was actually able to dissipate such powerful celestial thunder.
Originally, they thought he would be blasted to pieces along with Nezha, but they didn’t expect this outcome.
Defeated, defeated completely, Shen Gongbao and Ao Bing knew they were utterly defeated, with no chance to overturn the situation.
Ye Chen slowly flew back down to the ground, with a face full of fatigue.
Li and his wife looked at Ye Chen and said, "Thank you, Great Immortal Deliveryman, for saving our Zha’er."
Seeing the couple bowing to him, Ye Chen hurriedly stopped them.
Without Li and his wife’s protection, the people of Chentang Pass couldn’t have lived so peacefully, and the couple had sacrificed so much for this peace, even not having time to accompany Nezha.
Ye Chen was deeply moved by this selfless spirit, not only moved but also filled with admiration.
Taoyi Immortal looked at Ye Chen with gratitude and said, "Thank you, Great Immortal Deliveryman, for saving my disciple."
As Nezha’s master, he felt very ashamed for being powerless to help when his disciple was in tribulation.
But this wasn’t his fault; it was mainly because his mana was insufficient, and going would’ve been in vain.
Ye Chen smiled and said, "Perhaps this is fate between me and Nezha, allowing me to meet him and help him overcome this tribulation."
Taoyi Immortal nodded and then called Nezha over, saying, "Nezha, this Great Immortal Deliveryman saved your life, he is your benefactor, quickly thank your benefactor."
He also thought Ye Chen made sense; perhaps this was fate between him and Nezha, meeting him on the day of Nezha’s tribulation, neither earlier nor later. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Nezha walked towards Ye Chen, his childish face showing a smile.
"Big brother, thank you for saving Nezha’s life."
Ye Chen patted Nezha’s head and said, "Nezha, you must listen to your parents well; they are the ones who love you the most."
Nezha nodded sensibly; he also felt very remorseful for previously misunderstanding his parents by listening to Shen Gongbao’s words.
Now that everything was resolved, Ye Chen should leave.
Seeing Ye Chen about to go, Taoyi Immortal hurriedly called out, "Great Immortal Deliveryman, please wait."
Upon hearing this, he turned and asked, "What’s the matter?"
"It’s like this, Great Immortal Deliveryman, I feel that you and Nezha have strong fate, perhaps destined by heaven, allowing you to help him through the tribulation. I have an indecent request," Taoyi Immortal said to Ye Chen.
"Please go ahead," Ye Chen said calmly.
"Since you and Nezha have such fate, I want to ask you to take him as your disciple," Taoyi Immortal said.
"Isn’t Nezha’s master you?" Ye Chen asked.
"That’s true, but since everything is settled, I must return to the Celestial Venerable to report," Taoyi Immortal said with a frown.
There was another reason why Taoyi Immortal wanted Ye Chen to take Nezha as a disciple, which was that Ye Chen’s mana far exceeded his own.
Nezha is very talented; if he learned spells from such a Great Immortal, he would achieve great things in the future.
Ye Chen couldn’t possibly take Nezha as a disciple, especially since he needed to return to the real world.
"No, the fate between Nezha and I ends here; we cannot become master and disciple," Ye Chen said calmly.
Hearing Ye Chen’s response, Taoyi Immortal couldn’t continue requesting and could only watch Ye Chen leave with longing.
Ye Chen rode his motorcycle and returned to the forest.
In front of him, a wormhole appeared again, and he walked into it.
Soon, brightness filled Ye Chen’s vision, and he found himself back in the real world.
Suddenly, a system prompt sounded in his mind.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the Worldwide Delivery order, receiving the Map of the Land and People."
"Map of the Land and People!"
Ye Chen certainly knew that this was the spatial magical treasure that Taoyi Immortal used for Nezha’s training.
The Map of the Land and People contained a complete spatial world. With the Pointing Mountains and Rivers Brush in hand, you become the master of this space. Within this space, the Jiuzhou Land, mountains, and rivers are yours to paint and transform. Whatever you want this world to become, the Jiangshan Brush can instantly realize your wish.
This is a bit like a current home-building game, but far more impressive than any game.
Ye Chen thought this order from Worldwide Delivery was worth it; this was a priceless treasure.
While watching movies, he was very envious, never expecting his dreams to come true.
Looking up at the clear sky, blue skies and white clouds, Ye Chen decided to take a walk and enjoy nature.
He walked slowly forward and suddenly saw a crowd gathering ahead.
Using his intuition, Ye Chen knew something must have happened up ahead.
He quickly walked a few steps forward, and sure enough, someone was about to jump off a building.
The onlookers below were discussing.
"That Wang Qiang, really too pitiful; such a prominent figure, bankrupt overnight."
"Not just bankrupt, he’s in debt up to his neck, unable to repay it now."
"It’s better to be an ordinary person, the simple life is true happiness; I can’t handle such ups and downs."
"That’s right, as for money, just live happily."
It seems that among the onlookers, someone recognized the person standing on the building wanting to jump.
Ye Chen approached and asked, "Who is that up there?"
That person glanced at Ye Chen’s uniform and said disdainfully, "Delivery boy, go earn your money, don’t poke around where you shouldn’t."
Ye Chen ignored what that person said, knowing it was a typical case of looking down on people based on their appearance.
A man with glasses next to him said, "That’s the general manager of HSBC Company, Wang Qiang. He was very famous in the business world, young and promising. But who knew that a sudden turn of events would turn a billionaire business prodigy into a pauper overnight."
Ye Chen nodded at this, realizing the person on the roof was his university classmate.
However, their relationship wasn’t good, and previously Wang Qiang mocked him for being a delivery guy.
Even so, Ye Chen did not wish for Wang Qiang to end his life this way.
He decided to go upstairs and save him; after all, the two of them were once classmates.
The man in glasses still wanted to tell Ye Chen something, but soon discovered Ye Chen was already gone.
At this moment, Ye Chen was running towards that building, needing to reach the rooftop in the shortest time possible.
Ye Chen was afraid that if Wang Qiang experienced any moment of despair, he might just jump off.
By then, there would be nothing even he could do.
