Chapter 1276: Calling For People
Calling For People
Hearing this, Little White immediately wanted to say something, but before he could speak, Little Peach's weak voice sounded again:
"The views of the Human Domains don't count here... To the Integration Faction, Big Brother Chen Ling is our hero. He was in the past, he is now, and he always will be."
Without Chen Ling, Little Peach and Little White would probably have died at the hands of the Scarlet Heaven Cult; without Chen Ling and his Calamity Legion, the Integration Faction would have suffered nearly half its casualties before even crossing the Gray World; now Chen Ling was still risking his life in the South Sea Domain to seek a way out for them. Such kindness could simply not be summarized in a few words.
"But your brother..."
"Big Brother, you are not a god. Not being able to save everyone isn't your fault," Little Peach shook her head, a trace of bitterness rising in her eyes. "Actually, I've long been mentally prepared these past few years... I just never wanted to believe he was dead.
Thank you and the Holy Son for making up such a fairy tale to spare my feelings."
Chen Ling fell into silence.
Little Peach was very sensible, but sometimes, she was too sensible... Sensible children always left all the sorrow to themselves and the smiles to others, making people's hearts ache for them.
Chen Ling glanced at the sky, his brows gradually knitting tightly.
The agreed-upon time with the Integration Faction was approaching. If nothing unexpected happened, they would arrive at the entrance of the South Sea Domain very soon...
Chen Ling turned to look at Little White and Little Peach, speaking seriously:
"Little White, carry Little Peach and head north later... The location of the toy factory should be nearby.
Pu Jianyue has already caused a ruckus at the Canal Gang, so they won't make a move against the toy factory again. Right now, the Pu Family's entire energy is focused on catching me. The toy factory is currently the safest place... Hide well there, understand?"
"Yes!"
Little White directly picked up the weak Little Peach on his back and nodded seriously.
"Big Brother Chen Ling... what about you?" Little Peach asked.
"I'll go make some commotion to attract the South Sea Domain's attention, and also..." Chen Ling paused for a moment,
"Call some people to help."
...
"It's gotten colder again..."
At the entrance of the Messy Grocery Store, a bald Middle-Aged Man slowly walked out from inside.
Holding a Tea Cup in his hand, he gently blew on the rising hot steam while looking at the gradually falling leaves by the street. A slightly chilly wind from afar brushed past the earth, blowing the store's old signboard until it rattled.
"The weather in the South Sea Domain recently has always been a bit abnormal."
A figure wearing a Woolen Overcoat and a Scarf walked up beside him. Looking at the churning wind and clouds, he slowly spoke.
"Is this some kind of omen?"
"...Hard to say."
The Bald Man nodded slightly and lowered his head to take a sip of tea. "By the way, why have you been running to my place so often these past two days? Have you finished handling all the tasks of the Paper Kite Relief Society?"
"Basically." Chu Muyun hesitated for a moment. "Mainly, I'm still a bit worried..."
"Worried about what? Or rather... worried about who?"
"Right now, whoever has the most spotlight in the entire South Sea Domain is who I'm worried about."
"Ah~ As expected of the famous Six of Hearts. No matter which Domain he is in, he can turn the world upside down."
"This time is different... This time, he seems a bit too ostentatious." Chu Muyun let out a long sigh. "After all, there are two Demigods guarding the South Sea. If he causes too much trouble, it will be hard to clean up."
"What? Do you have a way to deal with two Demigods?"
"How is that possible."
"Then what can you do?"
"What else can I do? If something really happens, I'll quickly go beg the Red King, his elderly self, to save him."
"Will the Red King agree?"
"Tsk, who knows... Nobody can see through this pair of master and disciple."
Chu Muyun shrugged, his body casually leaning against the rattling doorplate. "However, we can't handle the Demigod level, but for the others... we can always bump heads a little."
"? Have you already reached this point??" The Bald Man was incredibly surprised.
"I'm still far from it... However, these past two days, I called some other people over."
"Who?"
Chu Muyun looked at him, smiling but not saying a word.
"Acting mysterious." The Bald Man couldn't be bothered to argue with him. After drinking the tea in one gulp, he turned and was about to walk into the store.
Right at this moment, a tiny afterimage whistled past the street, flying over from the end of the Alleyway opposite them!
"Eh?"
Chu Muyun let out a light sound of surprise. Raising his fingertips slightly, he precisely caught the throwing knife-like afterimage between his fingers...
It was a letter.
The Bald Man walked back out the door and glanced in the direction the letter shot from. The end of the Alleyway was already empty, with no figures to be seen. His expression was somewhat solemn.
"Who is it?"
Chu Muyun didn't answer. He just quickly tore the letter open, and a piece of letter paper and a Playing Card slid out.
Looking at the Card Face of the Playing Card, Chu Muyun smiled slightly:
"Who else could it be? The man of the hour."
"Looks like he is being chased tightly by the Pu Family, to the point where it's not even convenient to show his face," The Bald Man leaned close to Chu Muyun. "What did he say?"
"He needs someone to help open the door."
"The Integration Faction?"
"Mm."
"From the perspective of the Human Domains, this is letting wolves into the house." The Bald Man glanced at Chu Muyun. "Are you going to help him?"
Chu Muyun smiled.
He put the letter away in his clothes, looked at the dark and oppressive clouds in the distance, and spoke indifferently:
"We are the Dusk Society, the public enemies of the Human Domains. Whether the Human Domains are willing to let the Integration Faction in or not... what the fuck does that have to do with us?"
"If bringing in the Integration Faction can plunge this Domain into chaos and encoffin the Lord of the South Sea early, wouldn't that be a good thing?"
The Bald Man was stunned, then gave him a thumbs up:
"It still has to be you official members. This line of thought, awesome!"
...
After delivering the letter, a red afterimage stuck to the shadows of the wall corner, continuing to fly forward.
There wasn't much time left for Chen Ling. Plus, with the "Six of Hearts" causing a ruckus multiple times, the entire South Sea Domain was heavily guarded. He couldn't communicate with the Dusk Society members face-to-face, so he could only use this method to convey his needs.
Han Meng upheld his own justice and wouldn't help him open the door; but the Dusk Society was originally the public enemy of the domains, so naturally, there was no justice to speak of. Chen Ling believed that the Dusk Society side would definitely be willing to send people to help him.
Then his next task was to cause as big a commotion as possible...
An Invisible Heart Python extended from Chen Ling's sleeve, clinging to Chen Ling's back. The massive snake head constantly scanned the surroundings, flicking its red tongue as if searching for something.
"Then..."
"My 'Counterfeit,' where exactly... are you hiding now?"
