Bab 393: City by City - 393
The man sitting on the throne only reacted after a moment.
"What the h–" He started before stopping.
"Esteemed cultivator? Is something wrong?" He asked.
He did not know who Zhou Fan was, but could at least understand that he was a powerful cultivator.
"Raise your daughter better. She may offend someone that she cannot afford to." Zhou Fan said.
The king flew into the side wall with a red mark on his face as his daughter watched. She hadn't spoken a word since Zhou Fan had grabbed her. She was still in shock, and only fell into deeper shock as she saw her father slapped.
Zhou Fan disappeared, leaving the princess behind. He really couldn't stand such arrogant brats.
He did not want to use his powers, but he was already technically doing so as the icicles were hitting him.
If he was a mortal, he would have been killed by the princess. She did not care about the lives of others, and Zhou Fan decided to educate her.
As for what would happen as a result, it was not his problem at all. If the emperor dared to make a fuss, the problems would simply be dealt with.
A week later, to the surprise of many, the neighboring empire, one of the strongest empires around, declared its support for the city. Nobody could understand the decision, not even the emperor of the empire that Zhou Fan and the old man were in.
The neighboring empire also directly funded more upgrades for the library, as well as donated some techniques and martial arts. As a result, 10 more floors were added to the library and it became even more popular.
10 years later, everything had calmed down. Zhou Fan and the old man did not need to do too much work, the same as in the old library.
There were only a few visitors that would reach the 25th floor where they were staying. Zhou Fan and the old man even had rooms in the library.
Zhou Fan looked out of the window and saw a group of nearly 1,000 young cultivators being taught a martial art. They came once a day and were taught by one of the library's hired instructors.
Although nothing had changed for Zhou Fan besides having more books to read, everything around him had changed greatly in a short period of time.
To his surprise, time still passed quietly. Until 50 years later, when the strongest cultivator in the world visited the library. He was at the 1st level of the space shattering realm according to rumors.
To say that people were surprised by his visit was an understatement. Many wanted to come and greet him, whether they were emperors or peasants, yet he said that he wanted to visit while it operated as usual.
He walked around the library while seemingly looking for something. As he reached the 25th floor and saw Zhou Fan reading a book, he turned around without a word and left.
Zhou Fan chuckled when he saw the panic hidden on the cultivator's face. It seemed that the emperor that he had slapped had made a request for the cultivator to check it out.
The rest did not need to be explained. He had seen that he could not see through Zhou Fan and decisively left.
There was no point in him taking a risk for a mere emperor. He was the owner of a world.
100 years of peace and quiet later, Lu Wei joined one of the three sects of the tri-sect alliance. He had reached the soul formation realm, and was valuable to even the three sects.
He celebrated with Zhou Fan and the old man that day. The entire library, as a matter of fact, threw a big party that day.
It was around this time that Zhou Fan felt that it was time for a change of scenery.
He went to the old man.
"I want to retire from the library." He said simply.
The old man was stunned and did not speak.
"Fear not, we will meet again someday, probably. Maybe. Perhaps not." Zhou Fan said as he realized that his seclusion lasted a very long time.
"Regardless, here. Open it when Lu Wei receives a mysterious letter." Zhou Fan said as he handed the old man a letter.
It was a letter to the cosmic sect. Though Zhou Fan did not know if he would see the old man ever again, he was confident that Lu Wei would survive.
Although the old man could be considered a friend, he was just a passer-by in Zhou Fan's infinite life.
Zhou Fan had one last chat and hot bun with the old man before leaving. He did not bother trying to find Lu Wei since they would naturally meet again.
He wandered around and settled in the city next to the city he had been staying in. As he walked around, he found a job as a waiter.
He worked there for a few years before becoming a manager of the restaurant.
The job remained stable and constant for nearly 30 years before the restaurant closed down.
Zhou Fan decided to move to the next city over. He worked as a metalworker. The next city over, he worked as a gardener for some rich people.
He met a lot of people as the years passed.
He was a janitor, a carriage driver, a clerk, a seller, and many other jobs. He slowly moved around, city by city, as the years stacked onto each other.
Many events happened. Some of them even caused the city he was staying in to be destroyed. He had encountered many demonic cultivators, and weathered many natural disasters, though the natural disasters seemed to naturally avoid him for the most part.
By the time Zhou Fan realized it, he was on the other side of the world. It was hard to estimate just how much time had passed. He had averaged 100 years in each city he stayed in, with his longest lasting a thousand years.
He had slowly moved, city by city, to the other side of the planet. The planet was unspeakably huge as well, though nowhere near the size of the Zhou World.
