All realms have enabled me to achieve the Great Dao.

After a busy day, Zhou Yongcheng returned home to find Lü Su cooking. Whenever Zhou Yongcheng was home, Lü Su would usually cook. Although neither of them needed to eat, they were still used to eating, and they felt something was missing if they didn't.

After dinner, Lü Su and Zhou Yongcheng chatted and strolled in the bamboo forest.

"Why have you been so busy lately? I haven't seen you go to other worlds at all."

"I've encountered a post-apocalyptic world..."

Zhou Yongcheng told Lü Su about the future apocalyptic world.

"I don't know where there are so many wars and so many terrifying weapons. In the real world, I see in the news that many foreign countries are at war, and many people have died. It is the ordinary people who suffer."

"It's the same in any era. As long as there are people, there will be struggles, and where there are struggles, there will be wars. People have all kinds of desires, and desires will never be satisfied until the day they die. Some people even want to take others down with them when they die. Can you believe how wicked people are?"

Having spent so much time in the real world, Lü Su has gained a lot of experience and is no longer as naive as she was when Zhou Yongcheng first met her.

As they chatted, they arrived at the small building in the bamboo grove.

Zhou Yongcheng was studying a Taoist scripture, while Lü Su poured him tea. After pouring the tea, she also took a book and read with him. After Zhou Yongcheng finished his tea, she poured him another cup.

The next day, Zhou Yongcheng summoned Wu Longjiang.

"I heard from Red Queen that a carbon nanomaterial has been developed in the laboratory. This material should be widely used, so I'm thinking of building a factory in Tonghuai City that specializes in producing carbon nanomaterials, which will also generate some revenue for Tonghuai City. I'll let you handle this matter, what do you think?"

“No problem,” Wu Longjiang agreed readily.

"Just communicate with Honghou about factory matters. Ask her for blueprints and everything. After the factory is built, ask Xiao Jiu for equipment."

"Mr. Zhou, where is the factory located?"

“Just put it next to the research center. I think there’s plenty of space there. If it’s not enough, we can dig up that little hill,” Zhou Yongcheng said.

"Does Mr. Zhou have any requirements regarding the construction period?"

"Hurry up and don't be stingy with money. You can never spend all the money. Besides, I still have so many things to deal with. Money is no object."

Zhou Yongcheng is very arrogant, and he has the right to be so.

Wu Longjiang certainly knew that Zhou Yongcheng was incredibly wealthy; some countries might not even have as much money as him.

"Why are there still so many of these things here? The sales are a bit slow. Are there not many buyers? Aren't the rich supposed to really like jade and emeralds?"

Wu Longjiang was both amused and exasperated upon hearing this, and said, "Sir, auction houses don't hold auctions every day, only a few times a year. Your items are of high value and cannot be auctioned frequently."

Zhou Yongcheng nodded. He had thought the auction house held auctions every so often, but it seemed he was overthinking it.

Seeing that Zhou Yongcheng had nothing else to say, Wu Longjiang took his leave.

Zhou Yongcheng took out a pound-sized packet of tea from under the coffee table and handed it to Wu Longjiang. Wu Longjiang didn't stand on ceremony; this was a valuable item that money couldn't buy.

Last year, he and Li Shijie got two packets of tea for free, and they were overjoyed. He didn't keep the tea for himself; he took both packets home to give to his family.

After spending a few more days in the real world and purchasing all the necessary items, Zhou Yongcheng told Lü Su and then arrived in the post-apocalyptic future world.

Zhou Yongcheng appeared in the city. He had previously discovered that the city had four walls, and the most bustling place was inside the first wall.

The further you go, the fewer people there are, because the further you go, the poorer people become.

The distance between each city wall was several kilometers.

There are passages within the city walls. Perhaps the city lord here was kind. Apart from the outermost city wall having a gate, the inner city walls have no gates, so even the poor can freely enter and leave the city.

The territory within the first city wall was not very large; Zhou Yongcheng estimated it to be slightly larger than a small town.

Although this is the apocalypse, the people here are dressed very well; the materials of their clothes are even better than those worn by modern people.

They are also quite advanced in terms of technology. Their communication tools are not mobile phones, but wearable devices. Everyone uses different devices. Some people use something like a watch, some use something like glasses, and some use something like a bracelet. There is no fixed style.

Moreover, it's a holographic projection. If this world weren't the apocalypse, they would probably have already left the planet and were traveling in space.

The people in the city were quite surprised to see Zhou Yongcheng, because they had never seen anyone dressed like him before.

Zhou Yongcheng was stopped because of his strange attire.

"Sir, our AI system confirms that you are not a resident of Bright City. Please come with us; our city lord wants to see you," a man who looked like a city police officer said to Zhou Yongcheng.

"Lead the way."

As Zhou Yongcheng was taken away by the police, people nearby began to murmur among themselves.

"Did you hear what the police said? He's not from Bright City. The nearest city is hundreds of kilometers away. How did he get here?"

"I walked here."

"Try walking there yourself. Even a level nine expert wouldn't dare say they could walk to another city."

"You came by flying vehicle?"

"That's impossible. We haven't seen any flying vehicles coming. Flying vehicles aren't something ordinary people can own. I've heard that some city lords don't even have flying vehicles."

"There is only one possibility: he is a powerhouse who has surpassed level nine."

"Didn't you see the message? There are no human powerhouses above level nine."

Zhou Yongcheng followed the police into a luxurious house.

The person who received Zhou Yongcheng was a middle-aged woman. Zhou Yongcheng glanced at her and realized that she was the strongest person in the city, so she might be the city lord.

Tang Mingyue sized up Zhou Yongcheng. She couldn't see any special abilities in him; she just thought he was an ordinary person.

Thinking about it again, it seemed impossible. He wasn't from this city because he was locked onto by the AI ​​as soon as he appeared; a stranger had appeared in the city.

"I am the city lord of this city, named Tang Mingyue. What brings you to my Bright City, sir?" Tang Mingyue asked with a smile.

Tang Mingyue felt it was best to be polite to someone whose background was unknown, especially someone who had suddenly appeared in Bright City.

“My name is Zhou Yongcheng. I’m here to do some business in your city,” Zhou Yongcheng replied with a smile.

This Tang Mingyue is quite good; her body is covered in a rich golden light of merit, which suggests she has protected many people since the outbreak of the nuclear war.

Upon hearing this, Tang Mingyue's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Mr. Zhou, is there anything you want to sell?"

Although she didn't see any traces of an evolved being on Zhou Yongcheng, nor did she see anything on him, this made her wonder if Zhou Yongcheng was a space-type evolved being.

This is the only explanation; otherwise, how could it have appeared out of nowhere in the city?

In all these years since the apocalypse, there has never been any talk of space-type evolutionists.
