Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times

The next day, Ye Yu entered the examination hall amidst the encouraging gazes of her family.

After several days of continuous exams, Ye Yu finally ended her days of eating all sorts of highly nutritious foods.

She wanted Zhao Jing to go to Kyoto with her to check out the shops, since she had never been there before.

Although Zhao Jing agreed, she insisted on waiting until Ye Yu's grades came out before going to Kyoto.

Ye Yu even joked with her, saying that if she didn't perform well, wouldn't everyone lose the mood to have fun?

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jing spat several times and then took Ye Yu to Yunfeng Temple, where she had first discovered the Azure Glass Tree, to pay her respects.

As night fell, in Ye Yu's living room, Zhao Jing, Xu Jia, and Lu Xiaoting sat in front of the computer, watching Lu Zhuofeng check Ye Yu's grades.

As he began entering the exam number, everyone held their breath. Just before he clicked "confirm," Lu Zhuofeng turned to Ye Yu and said, "Why don't you order some?"

Ye Yu sat on the sofa, searching for information about jade gambling on her phone without looking up: "You can choose."

Lu Zhuofeng knew she didn't care, so he clicked on the link and, while looking at the results, he smiled and congratulated Ye Yu, saying, "Congratulations, you did very well."

Zhao Jing looked at the grades several times, then sat down next to Ye Yu, hugged her, and started crying.

Ye Yu became flustered and tried to comfort her.

It took Zhao Jing a while to calm down.

The next morning, several birds chirped merrily in the blue glass tree, just like Zhao Jing's mood at that moment.

She got up early and made a big breakfast, calling Ye Yu and the other three to eat.

After finishing the meal, he urged everyone to quickly pack their luggage, and they got into the car with their bags and headed to the airport.

Kyoto.

They boarded the car arranged by the hotel, dropped off their luggage after arriving at the hotel, had lunch, and then headed to the newly renovated shop.

In the past six months, her family's hot pot broth and tofu soup have become quite famous in Zhangshi, and some tourists from other places make a special trip to try them.

Now they plan to open a few more stores in Kyoto.

Lu Zhuofeng and Xu Jia bought more than a dozen shops in succession. Apart from the few hot pot restaurants that have been renovated, they haven't touched the rest.

Ye Yu naturally wouldn't just start a company by opening a hot pot restaurant. Inspired by the crazy attraction of Lingpin Tofu Soup to women, Ye Yu discussed with Lu Zhuofeng and decided to start a cosmetics company.

Setting up a company is no easy task. Land in Kyoto is incredibly valuable, so they need to buy land to build research labs, office buildings, and a habitat for the Blue Glass Tree.

Ye Yu had originally planned to find a place with abundant spiritual energy after arriving in Kyoto so she could transplant the Azure Glass Tree there. However, as soon as she got off the plane, she frowned.

The air here is extremely polluted!

Kyoto is the capital of China, with a large population and advanced technology, and many people rely on cars for transportation.

The exhaust fumes and pollutants in the air combine to make the sky here look gray and hazy.

The sun was shining, but it was covered by layers of smog, making it a depressing sight.

Ye Yu did not sense a trace of spiritual power here.

She immediately decided to establish a company in Zhang City, and she left Qingli Tree behind, turning the small courtyard into a research lab.

She told Zhao Jing and the others about her decision, and no one objected. In fact, they felt more attached to Zhang City.

Having made up her mind, Ye Yu stopped worrying about it, and for the next few days, they simply ate, drank, and had fun.

They visited the Forbidden City, the world's largest and best-preserved ancient imperial palace complex.

I visited one of the world's greatest defensive engineering feats, the Great Wall of China, an ancient military defense line.

We also visited the Yuanmingyuan, which was now in ruins.

Unlike the previous two attractions, Ye Yu felt regret everywhere she went here.

Upon hearing that many of the cultural relics here had been lost overseas, Ye Yu only wanted to rush there immediately and snatch them back.

They spent a few days in Kyoto before preparing to go home.

Although she had decided to establish the company in Zhang City, she spent almost all of her money on shops in Kyoto.

Since it's currently a holiday, Ye Yu plans to return to Zhang City and then head to Chenshi Town on the border to try her luck at gambling on stones.

After returning to Zhang City from Kyoto, Granny Kong called Ye Yu and told her that she was this year's provincial champion.

Then, both Peking University and Tsinghua University sent teachers to recruit students. No matter how persuasive the Tsinghua University teacher was, Ye Yu firmly chose Peking University.

Zhao Jing politely saw the teachers who came to recruit students off and went into Ye Yu's room.

Seeing her packing her luggage in the room, Zhao Jing said helplessly, "Xiaoyu, you don't actually need to be so busy. You only need to earn enough money to get by. You don't need to worry so much."

Ye Yu put down the clothes in her hands, sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Mom, I want to travel all over the country with my master, so I can't stay by your side all the time. So I have to set up a business for you, so I can feel more at ease."

"Mom knows you mean well. You have your own things to do, and I support you in doing them. Go ahead and do them. I don't want to be a burden to you." Zhao Jing gently stroked Ye Yu's face.

At this moment, Ye Yu's heart was very tender. In her previous life, she had no father or mother and was just a rogue cultivator.

Now she has Zhao Jing and Xu Jia, as well as Lu Zhuofeng and Lu Xiaoting, who are more like family than relatives, classmates, and friends.

Therefore, she can no longer be alone and do whatever she wants like in her previous life. Now that she has a weakness, she must do everything she can to protect them.

Ye Yu knew that she would make many enemies in order to cultivate in the future.

If these people can't hurt her, they'll hurt her family, so she needs to increase her influence and win over more people to protect her family.

The next morning, Xu Jia drove Ye Yu to the airport. Ye Yu listened patiently to her instructions before waving goodbye.

Ye Yu has arrived in Hongshi, a city with spring-like weather and bright sunshine all year round.

Chenshi Town is located to the west of Hong City and is on the border of China.

Although the jade gambling industry is booming there, transportation is not well-developed, so Ye Yu needs to take a bus from Hong City to Chenshi Town.

After getting off the plane, she found a car rental company, rented a car, and drove straight to Chenshi Town.

After driving for five hours, we finally stopped at a guesthouse in Chenshi Town.

It was almost evening when Ye Yu went into the guesthouse, checked in, and started strolling around the town.

It's dinnertime now, and the town is bustling with people coming and going, some tourists, some gambling on stones.

Many shops here have signs advertising jade gambling, and every few steps you'll see a shop surrounded by people.

Ye Yu casually walked into a shop surrounded by a crowd. Inside, a craftsman wearing an apron was sitting in front of a machine, cutting a small stone.

Everyone around was staring intently at the stone.

After the first cut, the craftsman took the stone out to look at it; inside, it was all white.

Hearing the sighs of the people around him, Ye Yu knew that they had lost the bet on the stones.

When the crowd realized that no jade had been found, they all left.

Only a tall, thin man wearing glasses, holding the cut stone, stood there blankly.

The man's suit was wrinkled, his face was unshaven, and he looked haggard.

He hugged the stone and muttered to himself, "It's gone, everything is gone."

Seeing him standing there blankly, the boss waved him away, telling him not to block the shop and affect the business.

The man, distraught, hugged the stone, walked to the corner of the wall outside the shop, squatted down, and burst into tears.

Ye Yu walked up to him, handed him a tissue, and asked, "I need a guide, five hundred a day, are you interested?"
