My Apocalypse System Arrives 10 Years Early

Li Xiang drove the pickup truck to participate in the third phase of the tree-planting and afforestation public welfare event organized by the county’s CPPCC. His application process was finally complete, and he was formally elected as a CPPCC committee member for his hometown county.

Spring was warm, flowers were blooming, and all things were growing—the perfect time for planting trees to add more green. Not only was Li Xiang planting flowers, vegetables, and trees at home, but the county CPPCC had also responded to the organization’s call and launched a voluntary tree-planting and afforestation event. It was a practical action to implement the concept that ”Lush mountains and clear waters are mountains of gold and silver,” contributing to the creation of a national-level ”’Two Mountains’ Practice and Innovation Base.”

As a newly elected committee member, Li Xiang naturally had to participate actively.

The CPPCC committee members were almost all in their forties and fifties. Only two were in their thirties. Li Xiang was twenty-six by traditional age, making him arguably the youngest member present. It was impossible for him not to attract attention.

Almost everyone came over to greet him and chat for a bit, and they all envied Li Xiang’s youth, praising him for being young and promising, with a bright future ahead.

’It’s no big deal,’ Li Xiang thought. ’I’m just a CPPCC committee member in a small county. There are many people in the world more illustrious than me.’ However, Li Xiang wasn’t the least bit insecure. ’So what? In ten years, strength will be what matters. I’ll let you all see what the youngest Saint Tier and the youngest Underground City Lord looks like!’

Li Xiang was incredibly efficient at work. Some of the other committee members also came from rural backgrounds and were good at planting trees, but they couldn’t compare to Li Xiang’s physical strength.

As Li Xiang worked, he unconsciously incorporated his Breathing Technique and Body Techniques, naturally entering a state of Cultivation.

Farming was Cultivation, and Cultivation was farming. His every move was in accordance with the Great Dao.

He became completely absorbed, lost in his work. A Misty Radiance emanated from his flesh and blood, making it seem as if his whole body was glowing, shimmering brilliantly under the Sun.

”I’ve participated in many events, and I did farm work in the countryside when I was young, but this is the first time I’ve ever seen someone get more energetic the more trees they plant!” a well-respected, elderly committee member in his fifties exclaimed, staring at Li Xiang.

Another person said, ”The Sun is so strong, we’re all wearing hats afraid of getting a tan. But look at him, he seems to be getting paler the more he’s in the sun. I don’t know if it’s my old eyes playing tricks on me or if the sunlight is just too intense today, but I feel like the young man is enveloped in a halo of light.”

”It’s great to be young. If only I were this young and handsome now!” a committee member in his forties lamented, rubbing the deep-set frown lines etched between his brows.

This committee member had always felt that he wasn’t old, that he was much younger than his peers. But in recent years, his frown lines had become more and more pronounced, no matter what he did. After seeing Li Xiang today, he finally had to accept the fact that he was old!

A young female reporter who was accompanying them to gather material muttered, ”So some people really can be handsome enough to glow!” She kept stealing glances at Li Xiang, planning to interview this youngest, most capable, and most handsome Committee Member Li later.
