Before long,
The spaceship began its descent, and from afar, Ye An could see a sapphire-blue planet.
At a glance, it appeared to be a medium-sized planet, but for some reason, even from a distance, Ye An inexplicably felt a sense of tranquility.
All inner anxieties and restlessness disappeared, as if all pressure ceased to exist.
Ye An thought to himself, this feeling is like coming home.
He took out the address information given to him by Lord Zhuque and glanced at it again.
The name of this planet was — Earth.
"Earth?" Ye An muttered to himself, unconsciously revealing a smile.
Soon after, the spaceship descended at an extremely slow pace, remarkably quiet, emitting almost no pollutants. This planet had a strict rule: upon arrival, forget all your powers and just remember you are human.
Not a warning, not a written reminder, but a rule that truly existed.
At this moment, all the energy sources and high-tech on the spaceship ceased to function, turning it into an exceedingly ordinary means of transportation.
After landing, the receptionist finally allowed Ye An to use his abilities as a cultivator one last time to store the spaceship into a spatial ring.
Then, he walked out of the landing pad and stepped onto the lush, wild grassland.
With just one step, he lost all his cultivation abilities.
He couldn't gather martial intent, manipulate elements, or even activate innate runes.
Looking into the distance, he saw a giraffe drinking water on the grassland. It glanced at him as if he had disturbed the tranquility of this world.
Suddenly,
"Vroom vroom vroom..."
The sound of an old-fashioned car engine echoed in Ye An's ears.
He turned around and saw a familiar old man driving an off-road vehicle, holding a dry pipe in his mouth, wearing sunglasses, and walking towards him with a swagger.
With just one step forward, Ye An could enter the passenger seat.
"Not used to it?" Liu Dahuo said lightly.
At this moment, Ye An's feelings were complex; this world gave him a completely different feeling, leaving him momentarily stunned.
After a long silence, he murmured, "This place... is very beautiful."
It was so beautiful that he couldn't bear to step on the grass here.
"Don't waste time, get in the car," Liu Dahuo snorted lightly, saying, "Two hours a day, don't even think about running away."
Ye An forced a smile and sat in the passenger seat.
Before leaving, he had sent a message to Liu Dahuo, telling him that he needed to go elsewhere for secluded cultivation.
He never expected Liu Dahuo to follow him directly!
On the bumpy ride, Ye An felt nauseous for no reason, as if he had motion sickness.
The road was too steep; Ye An's butt hardly had any time to stay on the seat, bouncing all the way.
"So... why did you follow me here?" Ye An asked suddenly.
Liu Dahuo seemed accustomed to life here, took a deep drag on his pipe, and said, "Can't I follow you?"
Ye An was speechless, but then he suddenly thought, "Here, I feel like all my powers are completely sealed. How can I conduct experiments?"
"You don't need to worry about that," Liu Dahuo snorted.
Soon after,
The two arrived at the entrance of an ordinary village.
They had arrived.
Liu Dahuo quickly extinguished his cigarette with his hand and stuffed the pipe directly into his pants.
But he was a step too slow; a gruff voice came from inside the village gate, "You brat, are you smoking again?"
"Even across half the universe, I can smell your unbearable smoke!"
Liu Dahuo's face stiffened.
Ye An's scalp tingled even more.
The owner of that voice directly called Liu Dahuo a brat?
"What are you staring at? Get out of the car," Liu Dahuo snorted, getting out of the car with Ye An and heading towards the village gate.
Ye An looked up and saw that the village was plain and simple, named Earth Village.
Upon stepping through the simple gate, Ye An unexpectedly saw a familiar face.
There stood Tan Que, next to a white-haired old man leaning on a cane, stooped with a mane of white hair.
"Ye An!" Tan Que suddenly widened his eyes in excitement, "Why are you here?"
Ye An smiled and said, "I came here to do something."
"Alright, alright," Tan Que hurriedly walked up and said, "Whatever you need here, count me in."
Tan Que patted his chest and said, "As a guest, whatever you want here, just say the word, bro will make sure it's done!"
Ye An smiled awkwardly and then looked cautiously at the village chief.
After scanning Ye An up and down, the village chief smiled and said, "Young Ye, you have a handsome appearance and a dignified demeanor, reminding me of my youth."
"It's like meeting an old friend."
"Come, come," the village chief quickly beckoned Ye An over.
Then he patted Tan Que's head and said, "You go play over there."
Then he glanced at Liu Dahuo and said, "You also go aside; if I catch you smoking on Earth again, you'll never smoke again in your life."
Liu Dahuo smiled awkwardly and quickly nodded.
Tan Que widened his eyes and said, "Village chief, this is my buddy!"
"Of course, can't I see that?" The village chief proudly patted his chest and snorted, "Your buddy is here to see me."
"What does this old man want with you?" Tan Que shrugged.
Ye An quickly said, "I do have something to discuss with you, Village Chief."
Tan Que sighed helplessly and said, "Alright."
Then, Ye An hurriedly walked up to the white-haired old man, standing respectfully by his side.
"Let's go, let's go, let's have some tea," the old man was very familiar, smiling and grabbing Ye An's wrist, leading him into a house door.
Inside was a living room filled with the fragrance of tea and wood.
All the furnishings were made of mahogany, and on the long tea table were simple white porcelain tea sets.
"You sit first," the old man quickly pulled out a mahogany chair.
"I'll pick some tea."
He stooped over, stood in front of the tea cabinet.
Ye An sat down somewhat embarrassedly, feeling immediately that the chair was too hard and uncomfortable to sit on.
Bending over was unsightly, so he unconsciously sat up straight against the right-angled chair back.
He waited with his back to the old man for a few minutes, feeling puzzled.
Why was there no sound behind him at all?
Unable to help himself, he turned around and saw the old man seeming a little absent-minded, standing motionless in front of the tea cabinet.
Suddenly, he muttered to himself, "What was I going to do?"
"Oh, pick tea leaves."
He slapped his head with his other hand and quickly looked up, his gaze finally falling on the highest point of the tea cabinet.
Ye An estimated.
The old man couldn't reach that cabinet with his hand, so he quickly said, "Let me do it."
The old man shook his head, "No need, no need."
Then, with one hand supporting the tea cabinet and the other hand lifting the cane, he poked the tea bag down with the cane, which seemed a bit ridiculous.
The tea leaves fell to the ground, and the old man quickly picked them up, dusted them off with his hand, looked up at Ye An, and smiled, "Pardon my blunder."
When the old man smiled, wrinkles gathered on his face, but Ye An didn't find it scary at all because his eyes were clean and bright, like a child who believed the future was full of hope...
