Chapter 1421

On one side is the world, on the other is integrity.

Facing this dilemma that seemed difficult on the surface... but actually wasn't that hard, the female cleaner, after taking a big gulp of water, had to endure the shame that was almost bursting in her heart, trembling as she slightly loosened...

"Who are you?!!!"

A roar came from behind Li Ang, scaring the female cleaner so much that she shuddered, almost losing control and adding ingredients to the river on the spot.

At the same time, looking at the strange man in front of him who had his back to him and was putting some "thing" into the underground hot river, King Harvey, who still had choke marks on his neck, widened his eyes in shock. He raised the dredging rod in his hand and shouted sternly:

"How did you get down here? Is the anomaly in the underground hot river your doing?"

"?"

Li Ang was slightly stunned when he heard the shout. After looking back in confusion, he discovered a blue-haired youth with a big beard, leading a team of strong men in metal diving suits, swarming out from the downward ladder of the pipe furnace.

And with the blue-haired youth as the leader, those strangely dressed strong men, holding hooks and forks that looked surprisingly heavy and dredging tools, blocked the diving dock on the edge of the underground hot river, firmly surrounding him in the middle.

These people... are the ones responsible for managing the pipe furnace in the Northern Kingdom, right?

After identifying their attire, Li Ang nodded knowingly.

In order to let the water of the underground hot river spread rapidly, he had destroyed almost all the pipe furnaces in Hot River City. Naturally, those responsible for handling the pipe furnaces would come down to check the situation... but time was tight, and there was no time to argue with them!

However, just as Li Ang was about to take action to temporarily knock these staff members unconscious, the female cleaner, who had poked her head out upon hearing the commotion, reached out to push aside her wet hair and shouted in surprise:

"Brother?"

Brother?!

Hearing the female cleaner's words, both Li Ang and the blue-haired youth were stunned in unison.

Li Ang, who reacted first, looked at the blue-haired youth's eyebrows and eyes that weren't blocked by the beard, and then looked at his hair color, which was the same as the female cleaner's. A flash of realization appeared in his eyes.

That's right, if he shaved off the big beard blocking his face, this person's eyebrows and eyes were 40% similar to Melly's. He should be her own brother, the current King of the Northern Kingdom.

At the same time, following the female cleaner's voice, upon seeing that familiar face, the blue-haired youth was first shocked and then angry, and then he rushed up roaring, holding the huge dredging rod.

"Let go of my sister... ah!"

Although he was kicked to the ground after Li Ang snatched the dredging rod, the blue-haired youth, who had successfully approached a certain distance, immediately narrowed his eyes. He gripped a beast tooth hidden in his palm, preparing to use the life-saving anomalous object given by the Aquarius Director to save his sister, who appeared in the hot river for some reason.

But just then, the female cleaner in the hot river seemed to remember something. She suddenly stretched out a wet arm, grabbed his wrist, stopped the activation of the beast tooth, and then said to Li Ang with joy in her eyes:

"Quick! Quick, throw him down too!"

Huh?

Unlike the blue-haired youth who was stunned on the spot, Li Ang immediately understood the female cleaner's meaning of "continuing to add ingredients," and then stared at Harvey, who was completely bewildered, and asked:

"Are you full?"

Huh??

Because the situation was too absurd and he couldn't keep up with the train of thought of Li Ang and the other, the blue-haired youth, whose brain was almost crashing, nodded subconsciously.

Immediately after, he felt his collar tighten, and then he suddenly soared into the air. He was grabbed by the collar very roughly and thrown into the boiling underground hot river with a splash.

"Your Majesty Harvey, you came just in time!"

After praising him from the bottom of his heart, Li Ang pressed on the blue-haired King's terrified face, pushed him directly into the river water, and rinsed him vigorously, trying to speed up the rate at which the 【Calming】 dissolved into the river water.

And with the addition of the second source of 【Calming】, the 【Calming Bath Water】, whose "concentration" had already dropped significantly, instantly became strong again, and even a faint blue soft light rippled on the river surface.

Huh???

Watching the madman who had caught the King and was rinsing his head vigorously in the river, the emergency dredging team of the Pipeline Department almost went crazy. They picked up their tools and rushed up shouting. However, in order to save Hot River City, Li Ang, who was busy rinsing the King, had no time to pay attention to them. He just turned his head and glared, and the slight overflow of the Authority of Fear instantly knocked down more than forty pipeline workers!

"You are not... glug glug... not Melly?"

Watching the female cleaner, who had taken over his "work" while Li Ang was busy dealing with the pipeline workers and had no time to continue fiddling with himself, rinsing him vigorously in the underground hot river, the blue-haired King, who was both angry and regretful, asked with a puzzled look:

"If you are not her, how... glug glug... do you know I have... what that old man gave... glug?"

"I am Melly! You didn't recognize the wrong person!"

After stuffing the beast tooth back into his arms, the female cleaner, who had escaped the social death crisis, shouted to her brother with gratitude in her eyes:

"No time to explain to you, anyway, don't move! Just soak here! Whether we can save Hot River City depends on whether you can buy us time!"

Still couldn't hold it back, huh...

Looking at the scorching white fire ball gradually sinking on the 【Sundial Disk】, the Taurus Director, whose expression was a bit tired, couldn't help but reach out and rub his brow.

The "one-second sun" mobilized by the 【Sundial Disk】, although it could also be used at night, had only half the intensity of the daytime and was not that accurate.

And considering that Li Ang should have already met up with Balto and might need the support of the 【Sundial Disk】, he and Pisces had delayed the sunset time of the Northern Kingdom a little longer. However, Li Ang had never sent a signal, so it seemed he had worked in vain.

"Lord Taurus."

After resting for a while, the Pisces Director, who also looked tired, waved his hand to fetch a mirror and suggested:

"Let's check the situation on Li Ang's side first. He should have already met up with Balto. If we wait until they enter the Earth's core lava tunnel, it will be very difficult for us to see them."

"Hmm."

Nodding in agreement, the Taurus Director placed the mirror on the mirror stand and then reached out to brush the mirror surface.

Accompanied by a flashing azure Aquarius pattern, this 【Celestial Mirror】, which was clearly much more advanced, was embedded directly into the stand. Then, across a distance of nearly 100,000 kilometers, it locked onto the location of a certain reserve Aquarius Director.

Sure enough, he has already gone into the river.

Looking at the steamy appearance on the other side of the mirror, the two directors nodded with satisfaction and relaxed quite a bit.

With Li Ang and Balto there, the underground lava tunnel of the Northern Kingdom should be able to be guarded, and there is no need to worry about the Northern Royal Family... Hmm... what is Li Ang doing?

After reaching out to brush the mirror surface again, looking at Li Ang who was holding a man and rinsing him vigorously in the river, the expressions of the two directors were stunned in unison, and then they looked at each other in confusion.

Is he... having already caught someone from the King-Slaughtering Society and is punishing them in the river? Interrogating them? But shouldn't Li Ang have just arrived in the Northern Territory not long ago? How is he moving so fast this time?

"Don't blame me, ha."

Just when the two directors were feeling baffled, the soft voice of a certain reserve Aquarius Director, full of apology, came from the mirror.

"I know this is uncomfortable, but I have no other choice. I believe Your Majesty Harvey can definitely understand, right?"

"..."

"..."

Harvey... Your Majesty?
