Chapter 52: The Editorial Department's Big Players Are Exerting Their Power
Today's class reunion was the most unbearable class reunion Ji Mingyang had ever experienced.
Although this time there were none of those mindless provocations and sarcastic remarks—
However, the sudden changes in Chen Xinchang and Li Yelan did indeed leave him with mixed feelings.
Embarrassing, helpless, headache...
This is probably the truest reflection of Ji Mingyang's mind as he walked out of the restaurant after everything was over.
"So... how exactly did Lao Lü get involved with these two people?"
"My information is indeed not hard to find, but he probably doesn't have the time or inclination to specifically instruct these two people, does he?"
Walking home, Ji Mingyang was completely baffled by the problem, and in the end, all he could do was sigh.
"Forget it, it's all in the past anyway. I probably won't have any contact with them in the future, so let's just pretend it never happened."
The weather is actually quite nice today.
But whether it was just his imagination or not, Ji Mingyang felt as if something had appeared on the south bank of Haidu.
That thing stirred in him a deep, heartfelt excitement, just like he had felt when he first met Yin Qing.
This caused his solar power to suddenly become hot.
However, no matter how you look at it, the south bank of the sea is completely empty and there is nothing unusual about it.
"Is it an illusion?"
With these questions in mind, Ji Mingyang returned home.
Yin Qing was a very quiet person. After Ji Mingyang left, she seemed to have been reading a book the whole time.
She didn't look up again until she was startled awake by his voice.
"You seem a little unhappy. Did something dramatic happen at the class reunion?" Yin Qing asked, seemingly quite moved by the situation.
Come to think of it, according to what she had explained to herself before, she was just an ordinary person who was weak and sickly before she awakened to Taiyin.
Yin Qing must have received just as many disdainful looks at school as I did back then, so I can understand that.
"It's melodramatic, but the kind of melodrama that's unexpected—" Ji Mingyang rubbed his temples, unsure how to explain it to her.
Even without explanation, one could roughly guess the whole story and the reasons from his expression.
"Is it because of your friend?"
Ji Mingyang opened a can of cola, sat back on the sofa not far from Yin Qing, and nodded after a short silence.
"It should be—no, it absolutely is. I can't think of anyone else but him."
After Ji Mingyang finished speaking, he glanced at the clock. It was still early before the time he had arranged to meet Lü Buyi that evening.
But he already wanted to complain to him face-to-face.
However, Yin Qing's next words temporarily interrupted his thoughts.
"The Social Security Bureau knows about your existence and location. I'm not saying this myself; based on my brother's account, I don't think it has anything to do with your friend—"
"So this is most likely what was done to your guild before..."
"Your fears have come true; your life won't be peaceful for the foreseeable future."
Yin Qing paused for a moment, then continued recounting the information she had received from her brother that day: "Especially three days from now, if my brother is not mistaken, multiple parties will be arriving in Haidu that day, including the Social Security Bureau, the Yin-Yang Bureau, the Lishan Five Elements Sect, and the two major sects of Tianzhu—"
"They're all here to take you away."
"Therefore you should be prepared and careful in everything you do."
Ji Mingyang had already grasped what Yin Qing was saying when she was explaining the extraordinary world to him.
So he wasn't too flustered and accepted everything in silence.
There wasn't even the slightest fluctuation in emotions.
If he had to say something, he just didn't expect all of this to happen so quickly and so suddenly.
It was as if there was an invisible hand behind him, trying to force him to experience everything quickly.
However, he wasn't really worried, after all, Lü Buyi was still by his side.
If anyone else wants to take him away, they'll at least have to ask him for permission first.
Ji Mingyang didn't actually want to go with anyone, but looking at Yin Qing's expression, he still asked:
"Do you want me to go with the social security bureau staff then?"
Hearing this question, Yin Qing gave him a strange look.
"Shouldn't that be up to you? I'm fine no matter what."
Yin Qing's words were absolutely sincere. You see, after finding Ji Mingyang, in order to respect all of Ji Mingyang's decisions, she didn't even tell her own brother their current location.
The Social Security Bureau learned of Ji Mingyang's existence from Snake Queen.
But it was precisely this attitude that gave Ji Mingyang a headache.
Yin Qing was being way too good to him, so good that it felt unreal to him.
Aside from her destiny as the child of Yin and Yang, she truly had no ulterior motives whatsoever.
Aside from Lü Buyi, Yin Qing was the only person who treated Ji Mingyang with such pure sincerity.
That's why Ji Mingyang wanted to go along with her wishes, but she was indifferent and had no desires, which left Ji Mingyang unsure how to reciprocate her feelings.
"That's how it is with Yin Qing, but what about Old Lü?"
"Would he suggest that I go to one of them, or to be more direct, ask me to go with him?"
With these questions in mind, Ji Mingyang dialed the number that Lü Buyi usually used.
I want his advice and answers.
Ten seconds later, the call was connected, but the unusually quiet environment on Lü Buyi's end made Ji Mingyang frown.
Therefore, he temporarily put aside his doubts and instead asked Lü Buyi what had happened there.
"Are there people with you right now?" Ji Mingyang asked.
-
"There's someone here, and a very important one at that..."
Lu Buyi smiled slightly, responding to Ji Mingyang's question while squinting at the figure dressed in the ancient style of the Qin Dynasty in front of Emperor Chongde.
"So it seems I made this call at the wrong time?"
Ji Mingyang clearly realized the seriousness of Lü Buyi's answer.
"Shall we talk tonight?" He took the initiative to end the conversation, letting Lü Buyi deal with his own affairs first.
This time, Lü Buyi did not refuse. He simply hummed in agreement and hung up the call.
He was so serious, of course, because the person who suddenly appeared in front of him was different from the other weaklings.
Even Lü Buyi cannot afford to be careless when facing this person.
He took two steps forward and shielded Jiang Liyue behind him.
Lü Buyi did not speak first, but simply let that figure teach Emperor Chongde a lesson.
The man's actions and expression were quite gentle. He even smiled and pinched Emperor Chongde's cheek, just like an elder looking helplessly at a junior who had made a mistake.
After a not-so-severe reprimand, Emperor Chongde bowed his head in silence before the figure.
When Lü Buyi saw him turn around, he raised his hand and greeted him.
"Isn't this a descendant of the Lü family? How did he get into a conflict with my good-for-nothing son and grandson?"
"Speaking of which, I even held you when you were little, so for my sake, how about we just leave it at that?"
Amaterasu, Iwao Hiko no Mikoto, the Immortal, Emperor Jimmu, the Dragon Emperor's Loyal Retainer, the Divine Warrior Ibawa Reihiko no Mikoto...
The sixth energy level, demigod Xu Fu.
The projection descends, gently opening its mouth.
Lu Buyi, however, could only feel helpless, lamenting in his heart that the editorial department couldn't afford to play games.
In the original story, when did Xu Fu ever care about the life or death of Emperor Chongde?
The terrible Bad Ending editorial department, they start using behind-the-scenes big shots to manipulate things whenever the plot goes wrong, right?
Has Xu Fu appeared in the first four volumes of the story? Should he have appeared so early?
"Tsk..." Lu Buyi raised his eyebrows and clicked his tongue unhappily.
He is the kind of person who doesn't respond to threats, much less pressure from people who are stronger than him.
Therefore, in the way Jiang Liyue looked at the madman beside her.
Lu Buyi stood with one hand in front of him and formed the Wangshu Heavenly Seal without any hesitation.
—This is the starting move to summon the full descent of the Yin Beast!
