Chapter 240: Who Does He Take After?

On the third floor of Yuexiang Pavilion, Yang Fan pushed open the door and entered.

Inside the room, there were only Sima Bang and Ye Jianfeng.

Seeing Yang Fan appear, the two of them stood up almost simultaneously.

Ye Jianfeng, in particular, even appeared somewhat reserved in his movements.

"Brother Sima, Brother Ye, long time no see," Yang Fan said with a smile.

He did not display the slightest arrogance due to the change in his status.

Because Yang Fan understood that when there is a large gap in status between people, it often only means that there will be fewer opportunities for future cooperation between them.

But that does not mean one should trample others underfoot.

After truly seeing more of the world, one would instead discover: 'Decency has more power than arrogance.'

Respecting others is, in many cases, also respecting oneself.

Sima Bang's face was filled with smiles as he pulled Yang Fan directly to the main seat.

"Brother Yang, you are now in your prime."

"Your ranking in the Taichu Battlefield has already broken into the top 100."

"All the Family groups of our Sima Family are almost arguing to the point of turning upside down."

"My dad has been scolding my third brother lately, saying that the investment quota given to you back then was too low."

"Third brother?" Yang Fan was somewhat puzzled.

Sima Bang took a sip of wine and explained.

"My dad has over a hundred sons. My third brother is over eight hundred years older than me and is already a middle-order god."

"Most matters regarding the Family's external investment in Geniuses are decided by him."

Speaking of this, Sima Bang's eyes clearly carried a hint of fear.

Although they are brothers in name, in reality, the other party's age is enough to be his ancestor.

Unlike a Divine Being, gods have lives that are too long.

Based solely on appearance, it is impossible to judge seniority.

The atmosphere among the three was much more relaxed than imagined.

As they chatted, Ye Jianfeng suddenly brought up.

"By the way, it was actually me who kicked Wen Yushui out."

"There was a small conflict before."

Speaking of this, Ye Jianfeng was somewhat embarrassed, still carefully observing Yang Fan's expression.

Yang Fan just smiled and didn't mind.

Whether it was leaving the group or the conflict.

These things are all too small for him now.

Some people will accompany you for a stretch, while others will get off early; it's perfectly normal.

Soon the topic gradually shifted, and Sima Bang suddenly revealed a gossipy smile.

"Brother Yang, I heard something funny recently."

"That guy Ma Huainan actually ran to the Alien Divine Kingdom Zone, and he even chose the Level 1 area."

"I'm almost dying of laughter."

Hearing this, Yang Fan finally became a bit interested.

"Ma Huainan only chose the Level 1 area?"

Yang Fan frowned slightly.

These days, Gu Le had already told him quite a bit about the Alien Divine Kingdom Zone.

He still remembered clearly the bet between Ma Huainan and himself during the Five Great Families gathering.

Especially that SS-rank talent — Martial God Body.

With such strength, he actually chose the weakest area?

Sima Bang sneered, "Who told this idiot to insist on challenging Brother Yang."

"He even lost the most core building of his God-Kingdom, the War God Record."

Speaking of this, Sima Bang looked at Yang Fan, the envy in his eyes almost impossible to hide.

"After that battle, my third brother directly lowered his investment quota."

"If he wants to maintain the development speed of his God-Kingdom, he naturally has to find a way to get resources."

"And those Alien Demi-gods in the Alien Divine Kingdom Zone all have high-value buildings and wonders given by the Primordial Academy."

"Even in the Level 1 area, there is quite a bit of profit in the God-Kingdoms of those Alien Demi-gods."

Yang Fan nodded slightly, then asked with some curiosity, "With his strength, why not go to the Level 2 area?"

Sima Bang immediately shook his head, "Of course he can go, but the risk is too great."

"After all, he is only a sophomore now."

"According to normal circumstances, he should have waited until his senior year to bet both opportunities on the Level 2 area."

"After all, those Alien Demi-gods have been developing for hundreds of years with the buildings given by the Primordial Academy."

"Even if it's just an A-rank or B-rank God-Kingdom talent, their strength won't be weak."

Speaking of this, Sima Bang lowered his voice.

"In the past, quite a few students were swallowed by aliens in the Level 2 area."

"Those Alien Demi-gods have too deep a foundation; if your strength isn't enough, you really wouldn't dare to touch them."

…

After eating and drinking his fill, Yang Fan left Yuexiang Pavilion and returned to his villa.

In the private room, Ye Jianfeng and Sima Bang had not yet left.

Ye Jianfeng took a sip of wine and couldn't help but sigh.

"Brother Sima, Brother Yang's personality is really good."

"He is already a peerless prodigy, yet he is still willing to chat with us."

Hearing this, Sima Bang just smiled but didn't respond.

Wen Yushui couldn't see herself clearly, so they despised her and kicked her out of the group.

But in some respects, isn't Ye Jianfeng the same?

Didn't he see it?

Throughout the entire meal just now, the only person Yang Fan was truly willing to talk to was himself.

Ye Jianfeng has an ordinary background, and his talent can only be considered decent, but it's not enough to reach the circle of the Five Great Families.

Sima Bang suddenly remembered a saying.

People have two eyes; although they are parallel, they always like to look at people with bias.

Many people can easily see others clearly, but find it very difficult to see themselves clearly.

And what is even more ridiculous is that some people can neither see others clearly nor themselves.

…

Returning to the villa, Yang Fan's consciousness instantly entered his God-Kingdom.

The next moment, the scene before him had already undergone earth-shaking changes.

In the Heavenly Court floating above the firmament, countless Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivators flew on swords, and streams of light constantly streaked across the sky.

The Cloud Step Heavenly Paths that once connected to Penglai Island and various auxiliary buildings had all disappeared.

A large number of old-era layouts had been completely changed.

The entire Heavenly Court was inherently a single whole.

Palaces hung in the air, blessed lands were scattered everywhere, lakes hung in the firmament, rivers traversed the heavens and earth, and gardens and Spirit Fields were interspersed.

The Immortal Qi was so dense that it almost turned into mist.

In such an environment, after long development, the Cultivation civilization had also gradually formed a complete social system.

A large number of Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivators began to form their own forces.

Sects, Families, Alliances, and Chambers of Commerce were constantly born.

Qi Refining Stage Cultivators were in the middle layer, supporting the operation of the entire civilization.

As for the Tier 5 Beings, they guarded the periphery of the Heavenly Court, responsible for patrols, defense, and war preparations.

And in the Heavenly Court, the most popular ones were still Alchemists.

Under Yang Da's deliberate arrangement, alchemy towers were scattered throughout the Heavenly Court.

Whenever alchemy fires rose, countless Cultivators could always be seen gathering.

For the Cultivation civilization, Medicinal Pills had long become an important resource for maintaining the operation of the entire society.

And on the ground, the Wanxiang Martial Court belonging to the Martial Arts civilization had also undergone earth-shaking changes.

Martial Arts halls rose from the ground one after another, and a large number of Martial Master realm experts opened Sects to accept disciples.

They recruited Tier 5 Beings with Spirit Stones, Medicinal Pills, and resources as payment.

Teaching Cultivation Techniques, tempering the Physical Body, and honing Qi and blood.

Today's Wanxiang Martial Court had long formed a complete system.

Every day, people had a Breakthrough, people challenged, and new Martial Arts halls rose.

Looking from afar, it was like a miniature version of a high-Martial Arts world.

…

Compared to other civilizations, the Mechanical Civilization was much purer.

There were not many classes here, no Sects, no factions.

Second-class Intelligent Life, first-class intelligent life, and even those Tier 5 Beings that had not yet completed transformation and were in a semi-Mechanical state, were all working day after day.

Receiving data, uploading information, absorbing the mechanical heart, adjusting body structure, and optimizing computing power.

The entire civilization was like a precision gear, constantly running.

The more powerful the intelligent life, the purer its thinking became.

They did not pursue power, nor did they pursue enjoyment.

The only goal was to continuously improve efficiency.

Yang Fan silently felt the changes in the Mechanical Civilization.

Suddenly his gaze paused, and then he couldn't help but cover his forehead.

Compared to these ordinary intelligent life, Yang Da, as the supreme leader of the Mechanical Civilization, was the least like an intelligent life.

Don't know when, but this guy had built himself a new palace, and it was even more magnificent than before.

Spirit jades paved the road, and gems decorated it.

He even used his authority to conscript beautiful female Foundation Establishment Cultivators and female Martial Masters to hold a beauty pageant.

At this, the corner of Yang Fan's mouth twitched slightly.

Although it was outrageous, thinking about it carefully, it seemed to have almost zero impact on the development of the God-Kingdom, so he simply couldn't be bothered to care.

"Who does he take after?"

"Can't he just be a proper intelligent life?"

"So many bad habits."

Yang Fan couldn't help but complain.
