In the future, Earth becomes a relic of the mythical era.

Chapter 162 Dispute
This "golden needle" is actually the octagonal bronze pillar.

Its real name should be "Ruyi Golden Light Supreme King Sword"!
It's called a sword, but it's actually more like a mace.

The original dragon-shaped base was actually a sword guard.

The hilt of the sword was still hidden underground.

My darling, my darling!

Truly worthy of the name "Ruyi" (meaning "as you wish")! Ruyi in both large and small sizes!

Such a large thing, yet a single thought makes it so small.

Xie Lingxin looked at the "golden needle" in his hand and guessed that it was probably not made by Princess Taiping, and even Wu Zetian was unlikely to have been able to make such a treasure.

What's the difference between this thing and the legendary magic staff that Sun Wukong used to stabilize the sea?
"Xie Lingxin? Are you alright?"

The soft voice rang out again.

Xie Lingxin came to her senses.

Almost forgot.

"Miss Qingci? I'm alright. Where is this...?"

Leng Qingci sat by the bed and stared at him for a while with some worry. Only when she saw that he was indeed alright did she feel relieved.

She said softly, "This is my home."

"what?"

Xie Lingxin was startled and looked around.

The room was simply furnished and decorated, with only a huge floor-to-ceiling window that hinted at a touch of luxury.

A thick carpet was laid out by the window, with a low table and several cushions placed there.

On the low table were writing brushes, ink, paper, inkstones, and an incense burner.

It exudes a simple elegance and has a faint, delicate fragrance.

Apart from that, there are only a few bookshelves and lots of books.

"This...is your house? Your room?"

Xie Lingxin said cautiously.

He remembered that Hongxiao, Tong Huohuo and others had mentioned that the Leng Qingci family was a famous family in Donghai and a family of scholars.

If this were her home, she couldn't possibly live there all by herself, could she?

Leng Qingci seemed to see what he was thinking and smiled gently: "Don't worry, my parents know."

"..."

That's what I'm worried about, okay?

He really wanted to ask, "We're not even acquainted yet, are we? And you just took me in?"
Don't you have any reservations?

Leng Qingci said softly, "Do you think you can sleep soundly after making such a big splash this time?"

"You can only find peace and quiet in my home."

Xie Lingxin was taken aback for a moment, then realized what was happening.

He wasn't unaware of the consequences of his actions.

However, he absolutely had to obtain the Supreme King Sword.

That's why they act recklessly, even at the cost of fighting two opponents at once.

Because he knew he only had this one chance.

At that time, the strongest people there were only Cangming and Bai Zangji.

The longer it drags on, the more variables there will be.

However, the strength of these two was indeed somewhat beyond his expectations.

He originally thought that with the true form of Lei Zu and the newly acquired "Ruyi Golden Light Supreme King Sword" supernatural power, he would be able to unleash strength far exceeding that of an ordinary fourth level cultivator.

They definitely can't reach the fifth level, but dealing with the two of them shouldn't be a problem.

And indeed, they won, but they were completely exhausted.

If it weren't for the cold celadon porcelain, there might have been other unexpected events.

"call……"

After sorting things out, Xie Lingxin let out a long breath and looked at Leng Qingci, saying, "Thank you."

"No need to thank me, consider it... as repayment for telling me so much about Tang Dynasty history and classics in the underground palace."

Leng Qingci smiled gently.

Xie Lingxin felt her ears itching again.

Her voice, mannerisms, and temperament always seemed to be so gentle and tender, so gentle that it was almost heart-wrenching.

"Tuk tuk..."

There was a sudden knock on the door, and someone pushed the door open and came in.

"Miss, the medicine is ready."

A little girl walked in carrying a bowl of something dark and mushy.

"give it to me."

Leng Qingci took the medicine and handed it over: "Your blood, energy, and spirit are all a bit depleted. This is medicine to replenish your energy and spirit."

Xie Lingxin glanced at it, took it, and drank it all in one gulp.

bitter!
Leng Qingci laughed and said, "Aren't you afraid I'll poison you?"

Xie Lingxin's face was contorted with pain as she said, "I was already lying down, so I couldn't resist whatever you wanted to do."

Leng Qingci sensed the teasing in his words but wasn't angry. She laughed and said, "You're not that old, so why are you so glib? Is this how you usually treat girls?"

Xie Lingxin waved her hand: "You've misunderstood me. Good-looking people always inspire admiration."

Leng Qingci couldn't help but chuckle softly.

The maid standing nearby stared wide-eyed at the two laughing and talking as if no one else was around.

He's flirting with you, miss!
Although our young lady is always kind and gentle, she actually maintains a sense of distance.

I've never seen such a natural smile before, especially not in front of a man.

This was the first time she had brought a man home and even let him stay in her room...

With great difficulty, she finally found an opportunity to say, "Miss, the master and madam want you to come over."

Upon hearing this, Leng Qingci had no choice but to stop chatting and laughing with Xie Lingxin, a hint of lingering reluctance flashing in her eyes.

"You can rest here peacefully. I'll come see you again later."

Xie Lingxin wanted to say that she was better and there was no need to stay here any longer.

Leng Qingci saw through his thoughts and said, "Believe me, you'd better stay in the Leng family right now."

Xie Lingxin seemed thoughtful upon hearing this: "It seems that a lot happened while I was asleep. Is it because of that statue and this thing in my hand?"

Leng Qingci nodded: "Not only these, but also the Tower of Heaven."

"Although it cannot be completely confirmed yet, according to the results of the investigation by the people sent by the city, this towering pagoda may very well lead to an unknown high-level realm."

Those who can be called advanced realms are at least at the tenth level, or even higher.

Xie Lingxin asked in surprise, "It's actually a path to a higher realm? So, the towering pagodas that the mother and daughter built one after the other were both for the purpose of reaching a certain realm?" Leng Qingci nodded and said, "That's most likely the case."

"It's very noisy outside right now, so you'd better not show your face for the time being."

Xie Lingxin looked at the "golden needle" in her hand and nodded: "Okay, thank you for your trouble."

He guessed it too; Leng Qingci probably brought him back to her home to protect him by leveraging the Leng family's influence.

If it weren't for the Leng family standing in front of them, this supreme sword would probably not have been kept.

"Here's your phone. Get some rest." Leng Qingci repeatedly told him to rest here, handed his phone back, and then left with the maid.

Xie Lingxin took the phone and found that it was almost bursting with messages.

I glanced at it and saw that most of the messages were from people in the bureau, as well as information about Liu Sanxian and his group of acquaintances.

"what?"

He saw several messages from Jin Sufa among them.

"Are you okay?"

"where is it?"

"Stay put at the Leng family's house and don't wander off."

This is the first time I've received so much information from Jin Su.

She replied, "I'm fine."

I waited a while before I received a reply.

"Ah."

Well, it's still the same.

However, judging from the previous information, Jin Su should already know her situation and that she is in the Leng family.

Xie Lingxin lay in bed, checked her messages for a while, and then went online and saw a lot of news about herself.

Only then did I realize that I had really made a huge fuss this time.

The news has already reached Leizhou.

I didn't even have time to reply to messages from old friends; my mind was completely absorbed in the present moment.

[Innate Mysterious Water Yin Thunder Diagram: 1/1]

[Buddha Descends to Rule the World: 0.01/100]

[Sex: 126.59/1000 (↑23.03)]

【Life: 43.18/100】

Although this battle was arduous, the gains were still significant.

Despite being injured, his foundation was not damaged; on the contrary, his sexual function increased dramatically.

It's past 23 PM. Under normal circumstances, this would take at least a month of hard work to achieve.

It seems that a battle fought with all one's might and with great intensity is not necessarily a bad thing.

I was too conservative before...

Contentment prevails, and thoughts are cleared away.

The Innate Mysterious Water Yin Thunder Diagram begins to operate.

The injuries on my body are still quite serious; I need to recuperate.

……

at this time.

The main hall of the Leng family home.

"Dad, Mom, are you looking for me?"

Leng Qingci walked in.

Seeing his parents sitting there, their faces turned to the side, their expressions slightly somber.

He couldn't help but ask, "Mom and Dad, what's wrong?"

Leng Yanwu and Gu Wan both snorted at the same time.

Gu Wan said, "It's all because of your stubborn old man, he's trying to drive me crazy!"

Leng Yanwu retorted, "What do you mean I'm an old stubborn person? I'm just stating the facts!"

He turned his attention to Leng Qingci: "Qingci! Let me tell you, there was a reason for this, so I won't blame you!"

"But don't be so inconsiderate in the future! How can a young woman like you bring men home so casually?"

"Let me state this in advance: my Leng family's son-in-law is absolutely not this kid!"

Leng Qingci was taken aback, then her face flushed slightly, and she said reproachfully, "Dad, what are you saying..."

Gu Wan, who was standing to the side, angrily said, "What's wrong with Xiao Xie? Huh? What's wrong with Xiao Xie? I'm asking you!"

"He's young, good-looking, and promising! Even that kid from the Bai family and that Cangming from the Three Mountains Alliance are no match for him!"

"His future is bright, why are you dissatisfied?"

"If you ask me, Qingci and Xiaoxie's relationship needs to be settled quickly! They're almost ten years apart in age!"

"You look down on him? I'm more worried that Xiao Xie will look down on your daughter for being too old!"

Leng Qingci, who had been blushing, now looked a bit tanned.

You're such a loving mother!
"My daughter is too old?"

Leng Yanwu was furious. He slammed his fist on the table and said, "Are you senile? Who do you think my daughter is? How dare that brat look down on her?"

"Hmph! Let me tell you, you'd better get rid of that jerk of your looks as soon as possible!"

"These practitioners are all mortals with delusions and fantasies, vainly seeking to become immortals!"

"He can fight? So what if he can? The more skilled he is, the more it proves he's just an ordinary person!"

"My Leng family's son-in-law must be a learned scholar and a master of classical studies!"

"Old stubborn!"

"You're senile!"

Both of them were so angry that their faces turned red, and they kept repeating the same word under their breath.

"..."

Leng Qingci was used to this and could only sigh in despair.

"Sir, Madam, we have a guest."

Just then, a servant came to report, interrupting the two from performing the spell.

Leng Yanwu, panting, said, "You guys almost made me lose my mind, Qingci! You've brought so much trouble to the family!"

Leng Qingci frowned and asked, "Dad, were those people the ones who came to our door?"

The people she was referring to were naturally the Donghai Environmental Protection Bureau, Donghai Group, and the Sanshan Alliance, among other forces.

Xie Lingxin works for the Environmental Protection Bureau, so these people won't do anything to him.

However, the key to the ownership of the Tongtian Pagoda, the statues, and other items lies with Xie Lingxin...
