The Days of Being Forced to Become the Savior of a Cultivation Civilization

Yingzi was somewhat at a loss:

"So, you really are Tidaric from mythology, the progenitor of frogs?"

Tidaric lay motionless on his shoulder:

"Quack, it is I. However, myths are all lies, half true and half false, so don't believe everything you hear, quack."

"So, you're not surprised at all that a mythical being has appeared right in front of you?"

Qian Xintong's complaint:

"Isn't Viminali a myth?"

Tidaric was taken aback:

"That's true, quack."

Zhiyue: "Then could you tell me which parts are true and which are false?"

Tidaric: "Obviously I can't say 'quack.' I don't know if that old woman is still awake, but even if she's asleep, if I say something wrong, she can still whip me to death with her tail."

Qian Xintong: "Which old woman?"

Tidaric's petite body trembled:

"Oops, I let it slip. Oh, don't ask anymore, knowing too soon won't do you any good."

Yingzi crossed her arms:

"So, why me?"

Tidaric: "Because you smell so good."

? ×3

"You have a strong, pure aquatic scent about you, and I really like it."

To be honest, I had my eye on you back in Blue Mountain, but you'd already gone astray, so I had to give up.

It was referring to Kun Ziying at that time, who was already a rebel against the earthly way.

It sniffed again:

"And there's resilience, the breath of life. It's that guy Viminali who's also placed his bets on you."

You're really lucky, kid.

Having been reborn, I not only possess dual Daoist lineages, but I also received the inheritances of two old men.

Yingzi scratched his head. He naturally knew that Tidalik was referring to the inscription that Viminali had left for him.

"Alright, you guys go about your business. I just woke up and need a while to adjust, so I'm going to sleep now."

Before the words were even finished, it transformed into a blue arc of light and swiftly entered Yingzi's sea of ​​consciousness.

The blue-green inverted elements intertwined like the dazzling aurora borealis, and Tidarik curled up within them, motionless.

……

The vast underground cavern fell silent instantly.

"You really are lucky. You've been reborn, your cultivation is even faster, you have dual cultivation paths, and you've even received two inheritances."

Mount Ishigaki shattered the tranquility.

Yingzi shrugged:

"I visited the Blue Mountains five hundred years ago, and few of those who know about it are still alive today."

He lowered his senses and looked at the little frog lying sprawled out on its back:

"I do remember that little frog; it was probably quite extraordinary. But it was supposed to be a mythical creature, having lived for several eras..."

He chuckled softly:

"Ha, even if the myth is true, it's at most a descendant who inherited the legacy."

Zhiyue pondered:

"That gem..."

Yingzi nodded:

"It should be genuine. This guy is lucky to have stumbled upon a treasure left by his ancestors."

Qian Xintong sighed:

"Now, I, the strongest one, am actually holding the team back."

Zhiyue patted her shoulder lightly:

"I'll take care of things when things are going well, he'll take care of things when things are going badly, and you'll be the one to rely on in dire situations. You've broken the seal and are here to protect us."

Honglan walked down the steps with her hands behind her back:

"Hey, what are you three chatting about? Does anyone know where the blue gem on the stone slab by the door went?"

……

The three looked at each other in bewilderment.

-

Inside a room at Neiduiquan.

"Boss Shaoqing?"

Li Guandai returned to that private bathhouse, at Shao Qing's instigation.

He nervously clenched his hands, his eyes darting around, looking everywhere but not daring to look directly at Shao Qing.

Because he messed it up; he didn't put the stuff in.

However, Shao Qing didn't care, and her face still wore that alluring, gentle smile:

"It's alright, Manager Li. In fact, I've successfully achieved my goal."

What I threw in has successfully merged with the slumbering presence within the spring. The seed of nothingness has been planted; it awaits only to sprout and blossom.

She chuckled and changed the subject:

"However, none of this has anything to do with you."

"Li Guandai, what I promised you, I won't run away with."

She was dressed neatly, except for her trench coat which hung to the side. She was completely covered up, but that couldn't hide Li Yuhuan's greedy eyes.

Shao Qing walked up behind him and whispered in his ear:

"Come on, let's do something exciting first."

Li Yuhuan's breathing became labored.

He thought the billion yuan he had in his hands was gone, but to his surprise, Shao Qing was in a great mood and offered to pay a "deposit":

"Okay, okay, Boss Shaoqing, shall I change my clothes first?"

Shao Qing chuckled softly, her fingertips lingering on Li Yuhuan's shoulder, then on his neck, sending chills down his spine and making his blood boil.

"No need, it will be over soon."

……

Li Yuhuan collapsed by the pool.

He died. His pupils shrank to pinpoints, his expression frozen in the final joy of his life.

Blood gushed from his neck, splashing into the inner spring and staining the entire pool red much faster than it would naturally spread.

"Hmph, shrinking to the size of a pinhole, that's already achieved. Consider the five million yuan stone as the capital you left for the Shao Group to use in their escape. Yu Huan, please take care of it."

-

"Quickly tally the casualties and report them immediately to Chensui City, Huanlong City, and all major shareholders."

"Yes."

"Xiao Wang, immediately arrange for the security department to deal with the remains of the insect swarm. Don't touch those ten Mulingars for now."

"receive."

"Collins, go and move out all the stools, chairs, and mats you can find in the storeroom. Calm the passengers down as quickly as possible and get through tonight..."

With Li Guandai nowhere to be found, Ning Lei, as the manager, took on the responsibility.

"Oh, Manager Ning, you're busy, aren't you?"

Honglan continued to fan herself gently, her expression feigning relaxation, but the weariness in her eyes did not lie.

Ning Lei was frantically giving orders when she turned around and saw Hong Lan, followed by four combat personnel and Qian Xintong:

"Ah, it's you all. Thank you so much this time. Without you, the hot spring town would be in grave danger."

Her expression was sincere, and her enthusiasm for the hot spring town was completely different from Li Yuhuan's.

Honglan shook her head:

"No need to thank me. I was just doing my duty as a shareholder representative."

He turned to the side:

"If you want to thank someone, thank these people."

Ning Lei nodded, expressing her gratitude once again.

Everyone accepted it readily, and didn't have the energy to refuse.

Honglan: "What is the casualty situation?"

Ning Lei sighed:

"Twenty-three people died and eighty were injured. Most of the injuries were caused by the train crashing into the station, and the rest were mostly from those strange iron tree trunks."

Honglan snorted coldly, but did not mention Chang Yun:

"Fortunately, none of the passengers who evacuated in time were injured. If it weren't for everyone's help, this trip to the hot spring resort would have been over."

Zhiyue frowned:

"Manager Ning Lei, to be honest, I don't quite understand. Why is it that such a large hot spring resort doesn't even have a single person at the Qi Refining Realm in its security force?"

Ning Lei sighed:

"This matter is related to a shareholder..."

She tentatively glanced at Honglan, in the manner a subordinate would use with their superior. Honglan sighed and nodded.

"Speak, the meritorious officials have the right to know."

Ning Lei nodded:

"Okay. This matter is related to Shao Qing, the beautiful CEO of the Shao Group."

She personally contacted Li Guandai and got him to remove all security personnel above the Casting Yuan Realm.

They publicly stated that the hot spring resort was safe enough that excessive security was unnecessary, and that it could create a "GG effect" (a term used to describe a positive outcome for something seemingly unrelated to the main point).

Xuan Ning was furious:

"That's utter nonsense. Where's the safety? Lives matter in the inner zone, but what about the lives of passengers in the outer zone and at the station?"

Kano was startled and quickly shook his head:

"Uh, she's in the military, so her temper is a bit—"

Ning Lei: "Exactly! It's all child's play! That Li Yuhuan, and Shao Qing, are no good either."

One is greedy for money, the other has ulterior motives!

Kano: "--Go for it. Never mind, never mind."

Kano muttered to herself. She hadn't expected Ning Lei and Xuan Ning to be "birds of a feather."
