Chapter 179 Avoiding Disaster

Chapter 179 Avoiding Disaster
"How did that happen?"

Although Xie Lingxin asked the question aloud, she already had the answer in her heart.

On the ship, Tong Huohuo told me a lot about the situation in Donghai City.

Although I knew beforehand that Donghai City was different from other places, a place that was deliberately indulged.

However, the situation was still beyond his expectations.

He originally thought that no matter how much he indulged, it should still be under the control of the Federation.

Yet, this alliance of independent cultivators is so powerful that various departments in the city, including the Environmental Protection Bureau, dare not touch it easily.

This would be unbelievable in Leizhou.

This situation is not simply due to neglect.

Furthermore, the various forces in Donghai City have long since become a tangled mess.

They are entangled endlessly, each other intertwined.

A single hair can have a huge impact.

Take the Three Mountains Alliance as an example.

According to the Liu siblings, more than half of the three islands and seventy-two water cities under their command were secretly controlled by Bai Shenji.

In reality, it's not just Bai Shenji; probably all the major forces in Donghai City have tentacles here.

why?
Naturally, there's no escaping the prospect of making a profit.

Just because of profit, the Three Mountains Alliance was shaken, which meant the entire Donghai City was shaken.

"Hey, tell me honestly, does the precinct have... um?"

Xie Lingxin hooked her arm around Tong Huohuo's neck and whispered.

Tong Huohuo blushed as if she had been insulted: "Don't talk nonsense! I don't know about others, but there is absolutely no one in our department who would betray the Federation or their own duties!"

Xie Lingxin laughed and said, "Are you sure? Isn't Bai Zangji the young master of the Donghai Group?"

Tong Huohuo pulled her hand away from his and said with dissatisfaction, "It's true that Captain Bai is from the Donghai Group, and he can be quite annoying sometimes."

"But on such fundamental issues of principle, there has never been any ambiguity!"

"I know you don't believe me, but you'll find out once you've stayed here long enough!"

Xie Lingxin smiled and didn't provoke him any further.

Believe it or not?
It doesn't matter.

Anyway, this isn't a place he can stay for long.

To steer the conversation back to Wu Laosan: "So, Wu Laosan has two brothers? How do they compare to Wu Laosan?"

Tong Huohuo said, "It is said that Elder Wu and Elder Wu San are both fifth-level spiritual masters, and their cultivation of the Summoning God Technique has reached an extremely profound level."

"The 'Lingzheng God' they cultivate uses human sacrifices; the more people they kill and the more ruthless their methods, the more powerful this god becomes!"

"Therefore, when they worship this god, they usually dismember people, cut out their hearts and livers, torture them with all sorts of extreme methods, and then kill them,"

“Especially for people with pure hearts and abundant righteousness, whether they are practitioners or ordinary people, it is a great tonic for their ‘spirit’.”

Tong Huohuo's face darkened with anger: "This group of people is someone our Environmental Protection Bureau has been trying to get rid of, but we just haven't found the opportunity yet."

"The group of evil cultivators we're looking for this time is most likely from the Three Saints Sect."

Didn't find an opportunity?
Xie Lingxin had serious doubts about this reason.

This may be true for sanitation workers like Tong Huohuo, but it may not be true for others.

It's simply a matter of whether you want to or not.

"And who's the last one? Why didn't you mention the second one?"

Tong Huohuo hesitated and said, "Wu Lao Er... this person is relatively low-key, unlike the other two who are so rampant. Not many people have seen him, no one has seen him fight, and he has not taken any certifications at the Dao Discussion Hall."

"However, it is said that this person is the most troublesome of the three brothers."

At this moment, Leng Qingci suddenly said, "Brother Xie, are you perhaps looking for the Wu brothers?"

Tong Huohuo was shocked: "Are you crazy?!"

Xie Ling thought to herself, "What are you talking about? I haven't lived enough yet. Even if I wanted to, do I have the ability?"

Tong Huohuo breathed a sigh of relief: "That's true. Anyway, you must not do anything foolish. You're lucky this time that the Dragon King stood up for you. You can't possibly take the Dragon King with you, can you?"

"You'd better stay home as much as possible this time you go back,"

"Although Wu Laosan was killed by the Dragon King, those people certainly wouldn't dare to cause trouble for the Dragon King. Nine times out of ten, they'll hold you accountable."

Xie Lingxin asked, dissatisfied, "Why?"

Do you think everyone else is blind?

Tong Huohuo curled her lip and said, "Who is the Dragon King manifesting for? And you even received a reward from the Dragon King. Just based on that, let me tell you, regardless of whether it has anything to do with you or not, someone is definitely going to cause you trouble."

Leng Qingci said worriedly, "You're right. The Dragon King deliberately broke with convention and appeared to you as a reward. Wu Laosan is enough of an excuse for them to cause you trouble."

"How about... Brother Xie, you come and stay at my house for a while? The Leng family still has some influence in Donghai, so they shouldn't dare to offend us."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked over.

Tong Huohuo's eyes were practically overflowing with envy.

Li Miaoyin curled her lip and cursed inwardly: Shameless little bitch!
However, based on her understanding of Xie Lingxin, that bastard, although he was a scoundrel, he still had some self-respect. He wouldn't stoop so low as to rely on a woman... right?

Suddenly feeling a little uncertain, she feigned surprise and said, "Xie Lingxin, you didn't tell Sister Leng, did you? Your relationship with Chen Jinxin... oh dear!"

She covered her mouth: "I'm sorry, I let it slip... Sister Leng, you won't be angry with me, will you? But I meant well, you know. If you were living with Sister Leng and she found out, how heartbroken would she be?"

Even Leng Qingci, with her good temper, couldn't help but sigh at her affected manner.

You let it slip? Didn't you already say that?

Xie Lingxin, however, was too lazy to pay attention to this lipstick-wearing green tea bitch and said with a happy face, "Is that alright? Thank you so much, Miss Leng!"

Li Miaoyin: "..."

Tong Huohuo: "..."

Li Jingzhe's face twitched.

"Yes, that's fine."

The cold celadon porcelain also looks a bit messy.

She really just said it casually, not expecting him to agree...

"That's wonderful! Then I'll take the trouble to bother you!"

Even if Xie Lingxin knew the contempt in their hearts, she would only ignore it.

cut~
What's more important than your life?

He would feel more at ease if it were in Leizhou.

However, he didn't trust the Donghai branch.

I'd better go hide at the Leng family's place for a while.

Anyway, it'll only be about half a month at most before he can go back to Leizhou. "Are you really going?"

The boat docked.

Tong Huohuo looked at Xie Lingxin with a hint of reluctance, then stole a glance at Leng Qingci.

Although he no longer harbors any prejudice against Xie Lingxin and even wants to curry favor with her, he doesn't want to see her in any danger.

However, knowing that he was going to "live together" with Leng Qingci, the goddess of the entire Donghai City, was still something he was not happy to see.

Xie Ling thought to herself, "Or you can protect me?"

"Never mind then... You go ahead, I'll report back on the mission."

Tong Huohuo sighed and walked away, turning back every few steps.

"I despise you!"

Li Miaoyin gestured to Xie Lingxin and then stormed off the boat.

"I've obtained the turtle pearl on this trip, and now I'm heading back to Leizhou,"

Before disembarking, Li Jingzhe asked meaningfully, "How much time do you need?"

This sentence was quite inexplicable, but Xie Lingxin understood it.

"About...three months?"

Li Jingzhe wasn't surprised and nodded: "Three months is enough. Call me when the time comes."

Xie Lingxin asked, "Are you really going?"

"Eradicate all evil."

After saying that, he turned and got off the boat.

Leng Qingci frowned and said softly, "Are you still going to look for the Wu brothers?"

She was very intelligent and understood their conversation.

Xie Ling thought to herself, "Even if I don't go, do you think they'll let me go?"

Leng Qingci fell silent.

Xie Lingxin, however, was deep in thought.

He said three months, meaning he was confident that he could break through the fourth barrier within three months.

Once he reached the fourth pass, he was confident he could deal with the Wu brothers.

How could Li Jingzhe have such confidence?
interesting……

Indeed, one should not underestimate the people of the world.

"Let's go home, Miss Leng!"

Leng Qingci: "..."

……

cold home.

"Why is he here?"

Leng Yanwu stared coldly at Xie Lingxin.

"dad……"

Before Leng Qingci could finish speaking, Gu Wan glared at him fiercely and said, "Hey! Why are you being so fierce, you old man?"

Turning to a smiling face, he said, "Little Xie! Welcome, welcome! From now on, treat this place as your home and stay as long as you like!"

"We're all family now anyway..."

Leng Qingci wanted to disappear into a hole in the ground, and interrupted her with a flushed face, "Mom! What are you talking about? Brother Xie is only staying temporarily. He might have offended the Three Saints Sect, and he's in some trouble..."

Leng Yanwu frowned: "The Three Saints Sect? What's going on?"

"Oh, is that so, Uncle..."

Xie Lingxin looked obedient and briefly explained the situation.

Since you're seeking refuge in someone else's home, it's only right to explain the situation clearly.

"Oh! So that's how it is!"

Gu Wan smiled broadly: "You can stay here in peace, the Yao fellow won't dare to do anything to you!"

"I knew it! Little Xie is amazing; even the Dragon King looks at him with special regard!"

"Fortunately, the old dragon king's daughter got married long ago, otherwise you probably wouldn't have been able to come back."

Xie Lingxin asked, "Why?"

Gu Wan said, "The old Dragon King wants you to stay and be his son-in-law!"

Xie Lingxin scratched her head and laughed: "Haha! I am quite likable, Auntie, you have good taste!"

Gu Wan covered her mouth and laughed loudly: "Hahaha! You're so straightforward and generous, you don't hold back your words at all, you're truly a child at heart! Auntie likes you more and more! Hahaha!"

"Auntie, you're beautiful too! I was wondering how Sister Leng could be so pretty. It's all because of you, Auntie!"

"Really? Oh~ Hahahaha!"

The father and daughter watched the two of them with black lines on their faces.

"Humph!"

Leng Yanwu, furious, stormed off.

I can't control it, and I don't want to!
……

After some laughter and joking around, and after flattering Aunt Gu, Xie Lingxin was arranged to stay in a guest room not far from Leng Qingci.

Although Gu Wan really wanted him to stay in Leng Qingci's room, she was afraid of upsetting Leng Yanwu, so she had to give up.

Xie Lingxin took out a mermaid pearl.

The once gleaming pearl is now dull and gray.

Jiang Daqiu said that this thing could appear and disappear depending on people's fortunes and misfortunes.

He had noticed it on the ship earlier; the mermaid pearl was beginning to darken and exuded an aura of death.
