In the main world of Earth, a space-time fluctuation rippled out, and Cheng Hao's somewhat aged figure slowly walked out of the ripples.
He lowered his head and looked at his appearance. His black clothes and long hair were no different from before. This time, his clothes had not changed at all.
In this regard, Cheng Hao did not care. What he was most concerned about now was how much time had passed in the main world.
The room was spotless, and it seemed to be cleaner than when he had left. It could be seen that during the time he had been away, his parents had often cleaned his room.
Pushing open the door, there was no one else in the house. In the empty hall, it seemed very bleak.
Kacha!
At this moment, the security door of the living room was opened from the outside. Then, two dispirited figures walked in slowly with their heads lowered. They exuded a lethargic aura all over their bodies. Their eyes were cloudy, and they had no ambition at all. They looked like walking corpses.
Looking at the familiar figure who looked to be in his forties but had a head full of white hair, Cheng Hao could not help but feel sour in his heart. He subconsciously opened his mouth and shouted.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back!"
"Your … son?!"
Father Cheng Heguang's originally dim and lifeless eyes suddenly lit up when he heard Cheng Hao's voice. His whole body trembled with excitement, and he took three steps forward and directly arrived in front of Cheng Hao.
"Mom, it's Cheng Hao. Our son is back!"
Without needing Cheng Heguang to call out to her, his mother, Wang Li, followed closely behind. She rushed up with a face full of tears and hugged Cheng Hao in her arms, unwilling to let go in the slightest, fearing that Cheng Hao would leave again.
"It's been five years, my son. You're finally back. Where have you been all these years?"
Five years?
Cheng Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the passage of time was not too exaggerated. It was within an acceptable range.
"Dad, Mom, do you remember what I told you? I want to cultivate!"
After a slight hesitation, Cheng Hao decided to reveal his identity as a cultivator to his parents. Otherwise, if he disappeared for no reason next time, he was afraid that their minds would directly collapse.
"You're saying that you've been cultivating all these years?" Cheng Heguang's face was full of disbelief. When Cheng Hao said that before, they just thought it was a joke. Now that his son, who had been missing for five years, said it again, he could no longer treat it as a joke.
"That's right!"
Cheng Hao nodded. Then, his body slowly floated up. He walked casually in the air in the living room like a celestial being.
"Five years ago, I was taken in as a disciple by an old Immortal and was brought to the Immortal Mountain to cultivate. Now that I've returned, I don't need to cultivate in seclusion anymore!"
He casually came up with a cliché story as an explanation to his parents. After a simple conversation with his parents, Cheng Hao excused himself and returned to his bedroom.
After being missing for five years, his admission to Jiangbei University had long been revoked. Cheng Hao did not care about this. However, he felt a little sorry for Luo Li, who had applied for Jiangbei University because of him.
There was also Lan Meng, who had previously agreed to apply for Jiangbei University. In the end, he stood her up because of this accident. Based on her temper, she probably cursed him a lot back then.
He turned on his computer and logged into QQ. However, almost all of his friends' avatars were gray. Luo Li and Lan Meng were both offline!
Cheng Hao opened the news webpage to find out if there were any major events in the past few years. However, when he looked at it, almost half of the news was about the nine dragons pulling the coffin.
"2010, nine dragons pulling a coffin. Is it a myth or doomsday?"
"Four years have passed, the missing people on the peak of Mount Tai are still missing!"
"According to the latest experts, the nine dragons pulling the coffin is not real. Everything is just a mirage!"
.....
After checking the news, Cheng Hao closed the webpage. He was not surprised. After all, there were cultivators on earth. Although in his eyes, the existing cultivators on earth were nothing. Since there were cultivators on earth, it was natural that there were other cultivation civilizations in the starry sky.
In particular, after returning to the main world, Cheng Hao felt a familiar feeling. This world seemed to be the same universe as the Shrouding the Heavens world he had experienced before.
Perhaps too much time had passed. Today's Shrouding the Heavens world had some changes compared to before. There were more restrictions on cultivation. For example, Cheng Hao's Holy Body did not seem to allow him to continue to cultivate. As long as he ran the scriptures, he could clearly feel the repulsive force of heaven and earth. It seemed that the will of heaven wanted to completely erase him.
"Forget it. If I can't cultivate, I won't cultivate. Anyway, I don't expect to cultivate in this world!"
Cheng Hao shook his head indifferently. With a thought, thousands of thoughts left his body and spread out in all directions. It was rare for him to come back, so he wanted to see his little sister who was already in university and some of his acquaintances again.
A moment later, the slender and elegant figure of his younger sister, Cheng Yueyao, appeared in Cheng Hao's mind. Looking at his younger sister who was sitting in the classroom and listening attentively, Cheng Hao couldn't help but smile. The little gluttonous brat who followed him back then had now grown into an adult.
Junior high school classmates, high school classmates, familiar figures appeared one by one in Cheng Hao's mind. Some of them were still continuing to study, some had already started working. They were busy, like waves in the secular world. Although short, they had bloomed.
However, among the familiar figures, only Luo Li and Lan Meng were missing.
Luo Li's figure was not there. Cheng Hao had already expected it. After seeing Lin Xi's face, he had some guesses about Luo Li's identity. It was nothing more than a Tao seed, obsession, or doppelganger. Her disappearance was not difficult to accept.
As for the disappearance of Lan Meng, it was somewhat beyond Cheng Hao's expectations. His divine thoughts explored the memories of many people, but all the people related to Lan Meng did not have a person like Lan Meng in their minds. It seemed that she was just a shadow, just a dream bubble that dissipated gently when the wind blew.
"Could it be that she is also a doppelganger of a powerful person?"
After secretly guessing the identity of Lan Meng, Cheng Hao no longer worried about this matter. Although his strength was not bad, he had not reached the realm of omniscience and omnipotence. In the case of insufficient information, there was no use in making wild guesses.
