The Law of Heaven

Chapter 129 These two are having an affair!
A cool breeze was blowing on the rooftop.

Jiang Youqing pursed her lips tightly, silently listening to the voice on the phone. Without making a sound, she turned around, silently creating a barrier to prevent eavesdropping.

Pretend not to see the old chairman's meaningful look.

After finishing the call, Jiang Youqing waved her hand to dispel the magnetic field, sat back in her chair, pretended to be nonchalant, and took a sip of her tea.

"Is this what you mean by not being in a relationship?"

The old chairman glanced at her and said quietly, "He calls you 'beloved concubine,' but what do you call him? 'Your Majesty'?"

"nor……"

Jiang Youqing remained silent for a moment, unsure how to explain the situation. A fleeting hint of embarrassment and annoyance flashed in her eyes; it was all that guy's fault for being so indecent.

The old chairman said irritably, "You kept saying you weren't dating, but I didn't expect you to be so promiscuous. Oh well, if you're dating, you are. You're definitely at the age where you should be dating, what's there to be embarrassed about?"

Jiang Youqing felt a little awkward, so she changed the subject: "It's not about romance, it's just that he has some important information to share with me and wants me to accompany him on a task. He seems to have... found some clues about your son."

The old chairman squinted, and the teacup in his hand rippled, reflecting the shadows of clouds and the light of the sky.

"interesting."

She seemed a little surprised, but after thinking for a while, she felt relieved: "Those with pure eyes are born with the ability to see things that ordinary people cannot see, just like the legendary Yin-Yang eyes, where all the illusions in the world cannot be hidden. Although I don't know if his eyes are mutated or damaged, having them is better than not having them, at least we can't compare to them."

That kid always manages to surprise people.

The old chairman felt increasingly regretful.

We didn't keep this child back then.

"Incomplete..."

Jiang Youqing felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this.

Because she knew very well that the guy was able to pass through the forbidden path, so his eyes must not be the flawed pure pupils, but must have undergone some kind of higher mutation.

If it weren't for Aihara's eyes playing a crucial role at the critical moment, the primal catastrophe might have already erupted.

It's absurd that these blind people still think his clear eyes are flawed.

No matter how upset Jiang Youqing was, she couldn't argue with anyone about this, otherwise she would only hurt that guy.

"If you want to go, then go ahead."

The old chairman waved his hand: "Now that you're aiming for the top rank, your strength has greatly improved. With you protecting him, I don't need to worry about him getting into trouble. Otherwise, if he were to die here, who knows what kind of trouble it would cause."

After all, they were members of the Xiang family's imperial clan.

Even the company felt it was too hot to handle.

Jiang Youqing narrowed her eyes and suddenly realized why that guy had been assigned to the reserve sequence back then.

Ye Xun must be behind this.

But ultimately, the board of directors' approval is still required.

For some reason, the old chairman always felt that the young girl in front of him looked at him with a cold, hard gaze, as cold as a knife.

"Then I'll leave first."

Jiang You left with a cold expression.

As she descended the stairs through the emergency exit, she happened to see a group of people coming up, presumably to visit the chairman.

Those people looked familiar.

"is her?"

Jiang Youqing's eyes grew increasingly cold.

Xiangyi led her team to visit the old chairman, and was slightly taken aback when she saw this aloof young woman walking down.

The team members were also stunned.

"is her?"

Jiang Youqing also had a student status at the Central True Pivot Academy. She only studied at the Faith Academy for three months, but she achieved the level of an eighth-level student and became a super genius that professors from various departments were scrambling to recruit, making her famous for a time.

However, due to Jiang Youqing's own wishes, she did not stay in the academy for further studies, but returned to the place where she was born and raised, and grew up step by step.

Xiangyi is only level seven, with a score of 40,000 on the forum, barely reaching the elder level.

Jiang Youqing, however, is at level eight, with a rating of 50,000 points on the forum, making her a sect leader.

As for Hua Bo, he is a level 5 hall master with 20,000 points so far, and he was recently promoted.

As for the remaining team members, most of them are only level four captains, and a very few are level three deacons.

That being said, they are already elites.

Most people in the academy are still struggling in the zero-level apprenticeship stage. Occasionally, someone will manage to become a first-level apprentice or a second-level disciple, which is quite remarkable.

That was a major event that warranted a feast for the entire village.

Super Plus enjoy.

"Junior Sister Jiang!"

Someone in the team greeted them with surprise.

Xiangyi frowned slightly. Although many people had used this genius girl in front of her to put her down over the years, she herself had no ill feelings towards her, since they had no interaction anyway.

But don't know why.

This time we met.

She actually felt a little uncomfortable.

Perhaps it was because, in that fleeting moment as they passed each other, Jiang You gave her a cold look, her eyes filled with icy indifference.

"What did I do to offend her?"

They couldn't understand each other.

The team members were about to approach and exchange a few pleasantries when they were blocked by an invisible sword intent, causing their expressions to change slightly.

"Move aside, thank you."

Jiang Youqing walked through the gaps in the crowd with a blank expression. She already knew what this group of people had done last night when that guy called her.

Blind to the truth.

Ding-dong, the elevator doors opened.

Jiang Youqing took the elevator downstairs.

They didn't give them any face at all.

"Have we offended her in any way?"

Someone in the group asked timidly, "I don't know, maybe that's just their personality."

Hua Bo sighed.

Xiangyi frowned, puzzled, because the other person's gaze towards her revealed an undisguised disgust and pity, leaving her somewhat bewildered.

"Could it be because of Aihara?"

Xiangyi vaguely remembered.

Jiang Youqing seems to be the senior student of that member of the royal family.

However, in the Central True Pivot Academy, many direct descendants of the nine great families had tried to curry favor with Jiang Youqing, but without exception, she rejected them all. And that member of the royal family with the Pure Eyes was incomplete, so he probably didn't have any extraordinary abilities.

really weird.

At noon, Yunxiu, who had lunch at KFC, finally gathered the team members for this mission. The tenth operational sequence was about to begin its operation.

She initially thought it would be an incredibly simple but tedious task, but when she saw the members who had applied for the task on the intranet, she felt immense pressure.

"Aihara? Jiang Youqing?"

She muttered, "What the hell is going on?"

Shang Yan was also stunned, and said quietly from the side, "This year's team members are not easy to manage."

Aihara, that great god, is back again.

In the last mission, Aihara had already perfectly demonstrated his strength with his overwhelming performance and excellent on-the-spot judgment. Although he was injured during the subsequent pursuit of the remnants of the clan, his achievements were already impressive enough.

As long as Xiangyuan is there, the deployments of both sides become irrelevant; he can single-handedly overwhelm you.

Especially now that news of Aihara awakening his Pure Eyes has spread, almost everyone is shocked and stunned.

But the problem is, you're already so amazing, why did you come here to be a junior team member?

Our temple is too small to accommodate such a great Buddha as you.

Jiang Youqing is the same. This powerful and experienced god has a strong ability, but he likes to abandon his teammates at critical moments and act alone to kill the mission target.

That's just how this girl is; she sees everyone else as a pushover, and when faced with a life-or-death crisis, she only trusts herself.

There's nothing we can do about it!

The store door was pushed open, and Aihara, dressed in a suit and carrying a briefcase, came in. He first ordered food from the waitress at the front desk, then spotted his teammates for this mission in the corner, and finally showed a kind and friendly smile.

"Oh, it's the tenth combat sequence again. They were the ones who provided protection when we were tricked last time."

His eyes were filled with pity as he thought to himself, "Is it because she's all brawn and no brains that he always chooses Yunxiu, this hot-tempered woman, to get himself into trouble?"

Ye Xun tricked her.

Mu Bei also tricked her.

It's so miserable.

"Captain Yun, Captain Shang."

Aihara, carrying a tray, approached and greeted everyone, "Good afternoon, everyone here."

Practice makes perfect, and now most of his teammates respect him. Even out of respect for the Xiang family's lineage, they have no intention of offending him.

Shang Yan also expressed his condolences and gratitude to him. During their brief exchange of pleasantries, he intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the Jiuge Xiang family, seemingly impressed by the family's reputation.

Only Yunxiu, the hot-tempered woman, snorted coldly, glanced at his right hand, and said irritably, "Is your injury healed? I don't want to drag a burden along!"

"Don't worry, it's been fine for a while now."

Aihara moved his right hand.

About two minutes later, Jiang Youqing also pushed the door open and came in. The girl was also dressed in a black suit, wearing a pair of black leather shoes, and carrying a guitar case on her back.

Her figure was slender and graceful, yet possessed a resilient beauty like bamboo joints. Her black hair was styled into a bun at the back of her head, adding to her cool and aloof demeanor.

"coming?"

Aihara moved the hamburger and fries from his plate to her: "Here, I've already ordered your lunch."

"Thank you."

Jiang Youqing hummed in response, nodded to the others, sat down next to him, and casually pulled out a new straw and inserted it into the cola he was half-drinking.

Aihara had no objection to this.

Everyone was stunned.

Do these two have something going on?

"Cough cough."

Yunxiu put aside her gossipy thoughts first. Seeing that most of the people around had left, she took out her briefcase from the box and pulled out her tablet computer.

"This is our mission objective: to enter a small alternate dimension located in the port. This alternate dimension was formed in 1998 and is now home to a large number of Dead Apostles, almost all of whom came by ship from other cities, attracted by the aura of the Mirage Dragon. But now that the Mirage Dragon has fallen, these Dead Apostles have nowhere to go, so they have found a hideout."

She paused, then continued, "These Dead Apostles themselves are not a threat, but the key issue is the port organization that transported them. According to my informant, there seems to be an underground organization of unknown size operating in the port, which has been secretly trading Dead Apostles for the past two years and appears to have made quite a bit of money."

Shang Yan knew that everyone present was young and didn't have much experience in the world, so he explained: "The Dead Apostle Trade refers to a group of people who profit by trafficking dead apostles. These people transport the dead apostles to a certain area through kidnapping or fraud, and lure them into working by promising to help them evolve."

As everyone knows, after falling from grace, Dead Apostles become increasingly mentally unstable, losing their logical thinking abilities and becoming very easy to deceive. Just inject them with brainwashing drugs and tell them that hard work will lead to evolution, and they'll willingly help you pick cotton. Hardworking, reliable, and diligent, they're a very useful group.

Jiang Youqing bit into her hamburger, her cheeks puffing out slightly, but her expression remained unchanged. Clearly, she had known about such things all along and didn't care at all.

Aihara was a little confused: "Huh, is that even possible? What do they make the Dead Apostles do?"

Jiang Youqing glanced at him: "For example, they lure the Dead Apostles to the other side to search for living beings or ancient relics. After they return laden with their loot, they hold some fake sacrificial rituals. The con artists take the offerings and secretly poison their food. The Dead Apostles feel that their power has increased, and they will mistakenly believe that the sacrificial ritual has been successful."

Aihara stared in disbelief: "Are there really so many living spirits and ancient relics in the alternate side? How come I didn't find any? Oh, the things in the Mist Mountain were already looted by the Toki family..."

Jiang Youqing mumbled, "Of course, some people will use Dead Apostles to carry out terrorist attacks, just like what you encountered back then. It's just that those people haven't completely lost their minds; they still have some intelligence."

As for the Dead Apostles who had completely lost their ability to think, they were even easier to utilize. More than two hundred years ago, they were put into giant running wheels to generate electricity. They had strong physical abilities and did not feel tired. They could continue working without food or water until they collapsed and died.

In ancient times, some people used black magic and alchemy to create matrices, simulating the aura of the natural order, and tamed a group of dead apostles to mine for them, creating enormous wealth.

Legend has it that the Achaemenid dynasty of Persia possessed an immortal legion, an army composed of the dead. Darius I lured them to fight for him with the promise of evolutionary advantages, and they became invincible, sweeping all before them.

Aihara's eye twitched slightly: "This is fucking hell. Do Dead Apostles really have no human rights at all?"

Jiang Youqing said calmly, "Back then, some people tried to implement the Dead Apostle Protection Law. But the main purpose of the law was to prevent people from using Dead Apostles to commit crimes, and to call on all hunters to kill Dead Apostles as soon as possible when they encounter them."

After listening to her words, Aihara fell into deep thought. This dead apostle trade sounded quite interesting. If used for the right purposes, it could indeed create a lot of economic value.

wrong.

It's more than just economic value.

Aihara suddenly saw hope in feeding Xiaoqi!
