Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei, let them live with regrets for the rest of their lives.

He felt that life was difficult, as he was either misunderstood as a mom-obsessed person or a luoli-obsessed person.

My XP is perfectly normal.

Lu Mingfei only cried foul, but never considered his own problems.

Getting back to the point, Zhou Qinghe showed a look of disgust, and then said, "I have a sister who is studying thunder magic at the Celestial Master's Mansion. She is struggling to find a suitable target because the power is too strong. I sincerely recommend that you apply for the job."

"Then let me ask you, was she using direct current or alternating current?"

Is there any difference?

"Direct current (DC) was invented thirty years earlier than alternating current (AC). To round up, DC is..."

"We wouldn't even dare use the smallest bullet to execute you, for fear you'd get too excited." Zhou Qinghe admired Lu Mingfei's novel perspective.

"Alright, stop joking around. We're serious, Mingfei. Joining the official organization means you'll automatically be on the payroll, a direct path to success. As a Chinese citizen, I don't believe you're not tempted," Zhou Qinghe said.

“…Indeed, the allure of a government job is too great for me. My mother’s expectation for me is to pass the civil service exam and secure a government job,” Lu Mingfei said.

"Then what are you hesitating for?" Zhou Qinghe took a document out of the drawer and slammed it on the table. "Sign it."

Lu Mingfei glanced at the document, which stated that he was joining the legitimate Zhou family as an individual, enjoying certain benefits, and in return, he would have to obey the Zhou family's arrangements and commands, and could not leave Rongcheng without orders.

"What's the difference between this and a contract of servitude?" Lu Mingfei couldn't help but say, "I'm still young and yearn for freedom."

“This was drafted by the old folks in the clan,” Zhou Qinghe immediately distanced himself from the matter: “They’re used to being high and mighty, and they think that giving you a chance is a favor to you.”

“Well, Sister Zhou, I’ve always been an honest person and I love to speak the truth. The Zhou family’s sincerity is not as good as that of Kassel College,” Lu Mingfei said.

Zhou Qinghe shrugged: "There's nothing we can do. The elders of the Zhou family have one thing in common: they live too long. Living so long inevitably makes them arrogant."

Even if you're exceptionally talented, a prodigy, so what? They'll always see you as nothing more than a slightly larger ripple in the long river of their world, fleeting and insignificant.

Upon hearing this, Lu Mingfei thought to himself that unless the Zhou family elders were all as stupid as pigs, they must have some kind of backing.

He believed he could fight against the Dragon King.

The Zhou family is large and powerful with deep roots, so they probably have backup plans as well, given their history of hunting dragon kings.

"Speaking of which, how old is the oldest elder in the Zhou family this year?" Lu Mingfei asked curiously.

He knew that mixed-race people lived longer than ordinary people, but he didn't know what that lifespan limit was.

Zhou Qinghe held up the number one.

"One hundred years old? That's a very long life."

"You forgot to mention a zero."

"What?!" Lu Mingfei was shocked. "Are they even human? Or are they dragons in human skin? A thousand years old, living from the Song Dynasty to the founding of the nation?"

"You're good at history."

Zhou Qinghe neither confirmed nor denied it, but did not elaborate.

As far back as she can remember, the position of the Zhou family elder has never changed, and according to her elders, it is the same in their memory.

Zhou Qinghe was unaware of the elders' secret to longevity. Recalling the young faces she had seen, she felt inexplicably nauseous. Considering the frail appearance of that person in recent years, she had a guess in her mind.

“I definitely can’t join such a strange place,” Lu Mingfei shook his head.

"Hey, sister, I'm from the Zhou family."

"Haha, I know Sister Zhou won't take it to heart."

"Oh."

"In short, this is the official stance of the Zhou family. I'm just relaying it; you make the decision yourself," Zhou Qinghe said.

"Didn't I just state my decision?"

"Actually, you can think about it again."

"Do you get a commission for recruiting me to the Zhou family? Can you give me half?"

"Don't put it so harshly. Personally, I hope you can join the Zhou family."

"why?"

“Because I want to ask you for a favor,” Zhou Qinghe looked into Lu Mingfei’s eyes, her expression more serious than ever before, “to help me save someone.”

"Who?"

"Nuwa".

"Which one?"

"The eldest elder of the Zhou family was someone she watched grow up."

"May I ask how old the goddess Nuwa is?"

"Although I really want to say that it's rude to ask a girl's age casually, I'll be frank with you, I don't know either."

The age of Nuwa is a mystery; no one knows how long she lived.

But I knew she was going to die.

Lu Mingfei raised an eyebrow: "It doesn't sound like he died of old age."

Chapter 119 Rescue Nuwa

"My intuition was very accurate. The aging of a life is traceable. When I saw Nuwa several times before, she was still as beautiful as ever."

"But in recent years, she has become increasingly outwardly strong but inwardly weak, and her frailty is immediately apparent," Zhou Qinghe said.

What do you think is the reason?

"Have you heard the legend of mermaids?" Zhou Qinghe didn't answer immediately, but instead answered the question with another question.

"The Legend of the Mermaid? The Little Mermaid? I have a classmate who is familiar with that."

"It's not the Little Mermaid. There's a legend in Japan about the Eight Hundred Bhikkhuni, and it's said that eating her flesh will grant you immortality."

"You mean to say that the reason the Zhou family elders have been able to live so long is because they have been devouring the flesh and blood of Nuwa?"

"This is just my guess. As a transcendent life form, Nuwa's flesh and blood, along with the powerful dragons, undoubtedly give her special abilities, so it's not surprising."

Mingfei, Nuwa is the faith of our Zhou family. From childhood, we have been taught that she is an eternal being. Now she is in an unprecedented state of weakness, and the elders of the Zhou family have strictly forbidden anyone from visiting her.

"You tell me, isn't this like protesting too much?" Zhou Qinghe said coldly.

Lu Mingfei pinched his chin, thinking that Zhou Qinghe's statement made some sense.

"So, Sister Zhou means for me to infiltrate the Zhou family and find an opportunity to rescue Nuwa?"

"Mingfei, you are smart."

"To be honest, there are certain risks involved. Firstly, I don't know enough about the Zhou family's power and what their trump cards are. Secondly, even if we rescue Nuwa, the Zhou family will definitely not let it go easily."

"Even if I wipe out the entire Zhou family, slaughter them all, will the other legitimate families let me go?" Lu Mingfei pondered.

If Lu Ming is barefoot, then he's not afraid of those wearing shoes. The key is that he also has Teacher Da Ye to take care of, and Xiao Tiannv, Liu Miaomiao, and others are also people he cares about.

Zhou Qinghe was silent for a moment before speaking: "I know this is asking the impossible, but Mingfei, you are the strongest hybrid I have ever seen in my life. If you are not confident, then Nuwa can just wait to be devoured."

I understand that what I'm saying sounds a bit like moral blackmail. Mingfei, I'll do anything you want as long as you help me.

"You can also help me fake a sick leave?"

"of course can."

"Then I'll have to seriously consider it," Lu Mingfei said with a smile.

Seeing this, Zhou Qinghe felt there was hope, thinking that Lu Mingfei couldn't possibly be only after unlimited sick leave certificates; he must have something else in mind.

Could it be that he's after her body? Does he want her to be his girlfriend or mistress?

Can not be done.

They are quite far apart in age, making it easy for rumors to circulate that they are an "old cow eating young grass."

Lu Mingfei hadn't expected Zhou Qinghe to have such a vivid imagination. He said, "Sister Zhou, I want one hundred million US dollars. Can the Zhou family afford it?"

"Only one hundred million US dollars? People would think the Zhou family is destitute. But Mingfei, you're not a greedy person," Zhou Qinghe chuckled.

"It's hard to say. Sister Zhou, have you heard of Black Swan Harbor?"

“No. But I can help you investigate,” Zhou Qinghe said immediately.

"If we rescue Nuwa and allow her to regain power in the Zhou family, shouldn't it be easy for the Zhou family to find the location of Black Swan Harbor?"

“The Zhou family is one of the three legitimate giants. As long as we don’t care about the cost, there’s nowhere in this world we can’t find,” Zhou Qinghe said confidently.

"If you save Nuwa, you will have performed a great service. Nuwa will surely devote the strength of her entire clan and use all available channels to track down all traces of Black Swan Harbor for you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Mingfei felt that the Zhou family was probably more reliable than the Great Xia Dynasty, or perhaps even more efficient.

The Great Xia Dynasty currently only has three people, which is no match for the Zhou family's vast army.

"Sister Zhou, please forgive me for not being able to give you an answer immediately. Please give me some time before replying," Lu Mingfei said.

He already had the idea of ​​agreeing in his mind, but this was a big deal, and he had to be responsible for Xia Mi, oh, and also for Zero, so he had to discuss it with them.

Moreover, Lu Mingfei felt it was unnecessary for him to play the villain. He could simply have Odin sweep the floor, stab all the Zhou family elders to death with guns, and then reappear to clean up the mess and rescue Nuwa.

Odin gets the praise for murder and arson, while he takes on the infamy of saving people from suffering.

Seeing that there was a possibility of reaching an agreement, Zhou Qinghe smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you."

Lu Mingfei hummed in agreement.

"Oh, by the way, since the orthodox organization is an alliance, in other words, all the families can invite you to join."

As far as I know, the Chen family is also very interested in you, and it probably won't be long before they take action against you.

"The Chen family started out in business, and they'll only be more aggressive with their sweet talk. Don't be blinded by their charms and fall into their trap," Zhou Qinghe warned.

Lu Mingfei patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Sister Zhou. I, Lu, am a man of integrity, and I am immune to all evil. No amount of sweet talk or conspiracies will work on me."

"I hope so," Zhou Qinghe said.

……

The Zhou family residence, deep within.

Within the area enveloped by the alchemical array, even a pure-blooded second-generation species cannot force its way through without a pass.
