Starting Cultivation During a Trip-Chapter 228 - 141: Returning to Life! Zhang Fan’s File_3

Zhang Fan gave an awkward smile. He knew his situation was different from others, so he immediately changed the subject, "Boss, what does the third barrier 'Crossing the Calamity Tribulation' mean?"

"That's something you only need to think about if you want to become a 'Celestial Master'—it's got nothing to do with you."

As he spoke, the boss pulled out a document folder from his drawer and tossed it in front of Zhang Fan.

"Take these receipts and run an errand. Deliver them over there."

"Urn orders!? Our company does this kind of business too?"

Zhang Fan glanced at them—these were purchase orders for urns. No less than five hundred boxes. The client was...

"Match-3 Puzzle Funeral Home!?"

Zhang Fan stared at this name, his expression turning strange.

He'd been in Yujing City so many years, and he'd never heard of a funeral home called 'Match-3 Puzzle' before.

"Send it over right now." Bai Buran called out.

"Alright!"

Zhang Fan picked up the folder and headed out. This 'Match-3 Puzzle' Funeral Home was right in the suburbs—there and back, he'd probably be back before lunch.

As Zhang Fan left the company, Old Yu got up and walked into Bai Buran's office.

"Boss, did you get anything out of him?" Yu Fu sat down, unable to hold back the question.

"He's not normal." Bai Buran leaned back in his chair, gazing at the ceiling, murmuring.

No one could cultivate that fast in such a short time.

"The Jiangnan Province Daoist Alliance has already got their eyes on him…" Bai Buran said in a low voice.

Right now, Lou Hechuan just thought Zhang Fan was secretly raised by Zhenwu Mountain, but if he found out Zhang Fan only started cultivating during a summer vacation trip—God knows how he'd react.

"They'll probably dig up his background, huh?" Yu Fu couldn't help saying.

"If Old Man Chu could let him leave the mountain, you think he'd be scared of checks?" Bai Buran replied coolly.

"Don't tell me…"

"I've looked into it too… his background's squeaky clean. Father is Zhang San, graduated middle school, works long-term at construction sites. Mother is Li Sigu, died in a car accident…"

Bai Buran looked at the stack of files hidden in the drawer. That was everything he could find—right down to Zhang Fan's mom's death certificate and the original accident report.

His background was spotless.

"Now I'm starting to understand why Old Man Chu wanted to take him in. All that talk about sightseeing and coincidence…" Bai Buran's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Maybe they already knew each other."

"Knew each other from before?" Yu Fu said, stunned.

"Given enough time and Zhenwu Mountain's influence, they could scrub someone's past completely clean." Bai Buran's eyes flashed sharply.

If someone's past has no issues at all, that's the biggest issue.

But he couldn't figure out why Chu Chaoran, a living Zhenren in this world, would spend so much effort on an unknown young man. What was he planning?

"With Chu Zhenren being such an Immortal-like figure, he shouldn't be so scheming. Unless…"

Just then, Yu Fu's eyes lit up—he'd thought of a possibility.

"What?"

"That kid's the Zhenren's illegitimate son!?"

BOOM…

As soon as he finished speaking, a deafening rumble of thunder came from outside the window, as if Heaven itself was enraged. In a flash, the weather turned.

"What nonsense! Old Man Chu's over a hundred years old. Someone like him…"

Bai Buran paused, rubbing his chin, and a gleam of wisdom flashed in his eyes: "An old tree blooming… I guess it's not impossible."

BOOM…

Before he finished, the thunder outside got even louder, shaking the whole building, like a storm was about to descend!!!
