The King of Xiuxianjuan returns to modern times and becomes a landlord

Ying Li successfully solved the investment problem and immediately resumed her previous leisurely and comfortable life.

The tranquil day suddenly changed. The sky was instantly covered with dark clouds, obscuring the vast expanse of China. The once clear blue sky seemed to be replaced by a vast black curtain, and the dark clouds rolled, as if countless undercurrents surged within. Lightning danced wildly across the sky like silver snakes, piercing the air with dazzling light, followed by a deafening roar of thunder. The thunder continuously intertwined with the thick clouds, as if the gods were angrily beating war drums, shaking everyone's heart.

The heavy, seemingly falling sky evoked an unsettling feeling, as if foreshadowing something ominous. A sense of tension and oppression permeated the air, weighing down people's moods. The internet was abuzz with speculation and discussion about the impending end of the world. Some cited ancient prophecies, others analyzed celestial anomalies, and still others shared various doomsday survival tips. Hashtags on social media were constantly updated, with topics like "end of the world" and "doomsday predictions" rapidly climbing to the top of trending searches.

People whispered in the streets, discussing the strange phenomenon in the sky and the rumors circulating online. Some families began stockpiling food and water, while others gathered in churches and temples to pray for peace. Schools and businesses were thrown into chaos by this sudden change of weather. Students were evacuated home, while office workers nervously watched the situation unfold from their offices.

Scientists attempted to explain the phenomenon scientifically, and meteorological experts held urgent press conferences to calm public panic. They explained that this was likely just a rare extreme weather event, exceeding normal levels of intensity and scope, but not the end of the world. However, these explanations paled in the face of public panic.

Against this backdrop, some lawless elements began to exploit the situation and spread rumors, with reports even of looting in some areas. The government urgently mobilized police to maintain order and released authoritative information through various channels, urging the public to remain calm and not to believe unverified reports.

The entire nation of China, from bustling cities to remote villages, was shrouded in an unprecedented atmosphere of tension. People waited, waiting for the sky to clear again, for this sudden disaster to pass quickly. However, no one knew what this sudden change in the sky portended, or what the future held.

Inside the gloomy Nine Nether Pawnshop, Ying Ni slowly raised her head. Her sharp eyes seemed to penetrate the dim light, capturing even the slightest fluctuations. She sensitively sensed the wrath of the Heavenly Dao. This mighty power was gradually spreading, like invisible mist, gradually seeping into this ancient and mysterious space. The air seemed to be filled with an oppressive atmosphere, making one feel suffocated.

Jiuyou Pawnshop, a mysterious place hidden in a corner of a bustling city, seems like a rift in time, connecting the real world with the netherworld. Its facade is unassuming, but once you step inside, it's like entering another world. Under the dim light, antique shelves are filled with a variety of items, each one seemingly carrying an untold story and power.

Ying Ni, the owner of the pawnshop, possessed extraordinary perceptions. She could sense the emotions and energies hidden within the objects, even the subtlest shifts in the laws of nature. She knew that the wrath of the laws of nature wasn't without cause; it must be due to the violation of certain taboos or the disruption of some balance.

As she was lost in thought, a gentle breeze blew by, setting the wind chimes hanging in the shop a crisp, melodious sound. The sound was particularly abrupt in the silent space, and Ying Ni couldn't help but frown. She knew that the chimes' ringing wasn't a natural occurrence, but rather a sign of something.

She slowly stood up and walked over to the antique shelf, her fingers gently sliding over the objects. Each item seemed to tell its own story, and some even trembled slightly under Ying Ni's touch, as if responding to her senses. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to find clues related to the wrath of the Heavenly Dao among these objects.

At this moment, the cell phone suddenly rang harshly in the house, the "ring ring ring" sound was rapid and continuous.

"Hello, who is this?" Ying Ni's heart trembled slightly, and she quickly picked up the phone.

"Hello, hello, it's me, Taoist Niu. My friend, I'm sorry to bother you this time because Director Shan was unfortunately injured and is in critical condition. Taoist Qingwei and his fellow disciples can only delay him for a while to keep him alive. Therefore..." Taoist Niu's voice was full of sadness, and he spoke hurriedly with a hint of sob.

Ying Ni was stunned for a moment, as if she had lost her soul. The phone slipped from her palm involuntarily and fell to the ground with a bang.

The noise startled Ying Ni from her dream. She quickly grabbed her phone and said, "Master Niu, notify Number One immediately and ask them to activate the airway for me. I'll fly over immediately on my sword. Also, tell them to try to keep Uncle Shan alive."

After hearing what Ying Meng said, Taoist Priest Niu immediately reported to No. 1, who also responded quickly and immediately executed the relevant orders.

Ying Ni stepped onto the upper floor of Jiuzhou Pawn Shop and spoke solemnly, "Tian Dao, you have awakened. I know I do not want your human body to disappear without a trace. Therefore, I ask that you temporarily remove the restrictions that have been sealed within me."

As the echo of Ying Ni's words lingered, dark clouds rolled over the horizon, and suddenly a loud thunder exploded, as if rebuking Ying Ni for daring to speak so wildly. Waves of heavy oppression rushed straight to Ying Ni's head.

"Heavenly Dao, you probably don't want to see your human clone meet with any misfortune. After all, it carries half of your power. If he has an accident, you will lose half of your ability. I repeat, untie the restraints on me." Ying Li faced the oppression of Heavenly Dao head-on. She decisively summoned the Soul-Calming Flute and the Book of Fate, bravely facing the challenge before her.

Protected by the Soul-Calming Xiao and the Book of Fate, Ying Ni easily withstood the oppression of the Heavenly Dao. As time slowly passed, the Heavenly Dao gradually withdrew its pressure. Already wounded, the Heavenly Dao descended into his human form to draw upon its accumulated merits to heal its own wounds. Now, his human form has suffered damage, and the confrontation with Ying Ni threatens to force the Heavenly Dao into a deep slumber once more.

Across the vast expanse of the sky, the Heavenly Dao, with its supreme majesty and solemn aura, slowly withdrew its power. As if sensing the Heavenly Dao's will, the thick, dark clouds that had once shrouded the sky began to gradually dissipate. The spectacular sight of lightning and thunder also faded as the Heavenly Dao's aura withered, as if it had never appeared. Simultaneously, within this world, the invisible force that once tightly bound Ying Ni's body also dissipated as the Heavenly Dao's aura dissipated.

Ying Ni stood there, feeling the constraints slowly dissipate. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, as if breathing the air of freedom into her lungs. Her mind and body felt an unprecedented sense of relief and liberation. She opened her eyes and looked around, only to see the once dark sky begin to brighten. Sunlight filtered through the thin clouds, illuminating her face, bringing warmth and hope.

(I saw some readers' comments earlier, so I'd like to explain that the immortal realm mentioned in Chapter 5 refers to the realm that Ying Ni traveled through, and Le Tong is a trace of the soul of a powerful being in that realm. I'll also explain why Shan Zhizhi knew that Ying Ni had traveled through this chapter. This is my first time writing a novel, so there may be some things I haven't considered. I hope you can understand. If you have any questions, please leave me a message.)
