Chapter 950: The Great Changes in Lin City!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After Ye Chen learned about the changes on Earth from Li Zewei, he left some medicinal pills and headed to Tiannan.
Ye Wushuang and Luo Tianya followed closely behind.
They teleported. Along the way, they had seen too many horrible things, so they were in a bad mood.
Since the spiritual energy recovered, the world changed drastically. Beast hordes broke out and order in the human world became chaotic. Countless people lost their families, wives and children. Some died in the mouths of ferocious beasts, while others died under the weapons of their own people.
Countless refugees hugged each other and wailed. There were also some provinces that had built defensive fortresses to protect the cold warriors of the world.
There were also loyal and brave warriors who did not fear death. They fought with the ferocious beasts resolutely, fighting for a new world for humans.
Along the way, Ye Chen would help those people resolve their crisis whenever he saw them. Even so, he still underestimated the negative effects of spiritual energy recovery.
The ordinary people who awakened during the great changes could live the best, but the ones who suffered were always the lower cla.s.s.
The current Tiannan had also changed drastically. The three provinces had merged together long ago. As there were many mountains and dense forests in Tiannan, during the ten months of the spiritual energy recovery, the beast horde outbreak was the most severe.
Tiannan was the first to react. With the help of Ye Chen’s old subordinates, Tiannan managed to repel the beast hordes and even accepted refugees.
As a result, Tiannan had the support of the people in China. People went to Tiannan almost every day, hoping to receive protection or to learn from the masters.
Meanwhile, Lin City had now become the most prosperous economic center in the whole of Tiannan. The entire Lin City had been expanded by more than five times, and there were a total of three regions within the city.
Star Group was located in the heart of Lin City.
“It has changed…”
Ye Chen walked on the streets of Lin City while carrying his daughter. He looked at everything around him while sighing. He felt like the world had changed.
Lin City!
It was the place where he was born, and also the place where he grew up. Originally, he was already extremely familiar with all the plants and trees here.
However, what he saw now was unfamiliar.
In just ten months, Lin City had undergone such a drastic change that he could barely recognize it.
Seemingly sensing his gloomy mood, the Luo siblings left him alone.
The little girl curled up in his arms and looked around shyly, “Daddy, where’s our home? I don’t even recognize it anymore.”
Just as he was about to speak, a pa.s.sionate voice came from behind him, “Handsome, are you here to make a living in Lin City?”
Ye Chen turned around and saw a man and a lady walking toward him. The leader was a young lady in her early twenties.
The man behind her had an honest face, and his facial features were about 60 to 70 percent similar. They looked like siblings.
Ye Chen looked at Ye Wushuang and Luo Tianya behind him subconsciously and said in disbelief, “Excuse me, are you talking to me?”
“Of course!”
The young lady smiled and said shyly, “Handsome, you’re so handsome. Of course I was calling you!”
“Handsome…”
Ye Chen was not used to being called that at the moment. After all, he was nothing compared to handsome before he recovered to the Nascent Soul Stage.
“By the way, my name is Chen Rongrong. This is my brother, Chen Zhong!”
While he was still in a daze, he heard the lady say in an extremely friendly manner, “What are your names?”
The young man called Chen Zhong smiled kindly at him.
Ye Chen smiled lightly, “Ye Chen…”
“So it’s Brother Ye!”
Chen Rongrong gave a cheeky smile and said, “Brother Ye, are you also here to make a living in Lin City?”
“Make a living?” Ye Chen was confused.
As if sensing his doubt, Chen Zhong took the initiative to explain, “Brother Ye might not know, but we siblings are from Minnan. This time, we came to Lin City to make a living.”
“Brother Chen, if I remember correctly, Minnan is a coastal city. It can almost catch up to Beijing and Guangzhou in China!”
Ye Chen frowned and said, “If that’s the case, why did you guys come to Lin City to make a living?”
The moment that was said, Chen Zhong and Chen Rongrong looked at him in a strange manner. In the end, it was Chen Zhong who said, “Brother Ye is actually right. Before the upheavals, Minnan was indeed far beyond Lin City.”
At this point, he could not help but force a smile, “However, ever since the upheaval, the coastal cities have suffered the worst. As it’s close to the sea, many sea beasts have mutated and are constantly attacking and disturbing our coastal cities.”
Ye Chen understood immediately when he heard that.
Even the plants and animals on land had mutated, let alone the sea creatures. Furthermore, the sea creatures were more abundant than on land.
“Therefore, everyone fled to the mainland to seek refuge!”
Chen Zhong continued, “The two of us are no exception. We thought that Tiannan isn’t far from Minnan and is safer, so we came.”
“With Brother Chen’s conditions, it’s very easy to survive in Tiannan. You don’t have to worry.” Ye Chen smiled lightly.
He could feel a trace of spiritual energy from Chen Zhong’s body. It was probably because after the recovery of spiritual energy, his body had been awakened.
“It’s not that easy!”
However, Chen Zhong sighed softly, “Brother Ye, do you know how many people are in Tiannan now? How expensive is the property?”
Ye Chen was about to speak when he heard him say, “There are over 100 million people in Tiannan now. Forty million of them are gathered in Lin City. The property prices in Lin City’s suburbs have already risen to 81,000 yuan per square meter.”
Following his words, even Ye Chen was shocked. Before he left, the population of Lin City was less than ten million, and the house price was only 5,000 or 6,000 at the very least. He did not expect it to increase by so many times.
With such a high property price, even if he were to spend 100,000 yuan a month, he would only be able to afford one square meter. It was even more expensive than gold.
“The two of us wouldn’t dare to buy a house in Lin City, so we could only go to the Mutant Union to test our talent!
Chen Rongrong’s pretty face sank as she said, “Let’s see if anyone has taken a liking to us and given us a meal.”
“Since Brother Ye also came to Lin City to make a living, why didn’t you understand this situation beforehand?” Chen Zhong also looked at him in confusion.
Ye Chen smiled lightly, “No, I’m a local of Lin City.”
This time, the Chen siblings were completely shocked, “What? Brother Ye actually has Lin City’s local household register?”
At that moment, there was a commotion in the distance. Then, a Ferrari charged through the streets, not knowing how to avoid the pedestrians.
“Get lost! We won’t be responsible if we kill you!”
In the Ferrari, a young man in a suit was chewing gum and laughing as he drove.
“Watch out!”
Ye Chen pulled Chen Zhong and Chen Rongrong to the side of the road while the Ferrari brushed past them.
“Big brother, I’ll go catch him!” Ye Wushuang walked over and said coldly.
It was only then that Chen Rongrong noticed him. For a moment, she was stunned. Then she suddenly said, “No, don’t go!”
Even Chen Zhong’s expression changed, and he said with incomparable fear, “That’s right, Brother Ye, you guys can’t afford to offend this person!”
