Chapter 1429: Sincerity and the Ten Descendants

"It seems you have discovered it too."

Looking at Hearing Li Ang, who had broken the key point in front of him, the blue-haired old man couldn't help but nod slightly with appreciation, then praised:

"Aquarius Director is indeed a genius once in a thousand years. It took me almost two days to figure out the trick, and you found the way to break the illusion in such a short time."

"Uh... you flatter me. This is just luck."

"You are humble. This cannot be explained by luck alone."

Looking at Hearing Li Ang, who was young and in a "high position" but still polite and humble when facing him, who was half a level lower, the Aquarius Branch Director couldn't help but feel a great sense of favor, and praised him repeatedly:

"I felt before that the Director hadn't joined the Cleaning Bureau for long, and the number of missions he had experienced was not enough. He might just be outstanding in talent, but there were probably many deficiencies in details."

"But now it seems that you are not only outstanding in secret arts and anomalous talent, but also amazingly talented in other aspects... Being able to discover such a hidden flaw in such a short time, you are already more seasoned than most cleaners."

"..."

This old... old senior, he speaks quite nicely, doesn't he?

Secretly touching the black goat's horns and finding that they were all sincere words, Hearing Li Ang's expression became much more enthusiastic.

And after exchanging a few compliments and quickly closing the distance, the Aquarius Director looked at the blue-haired youth who was carried on the nightmare's back and hadn't woken up yet, then said with a gentle expression:

"Director, can I ask you for a favor?"

"Please say it."

"*Heh heh*, it's actually not a big deal. I just want you to split off a part of the river of nightmares and send these two children back up. They really can't help with what's coming next, so..."

"Uncle Grandpa!"

Before Hearing Li Ang could answer, the female cleaner widened her eyes, her expression slightly dissatisfied:

"Harvey can go up, but I am a cleaner of the Aquarius Branch! You..."

"You are only a 'third-level' cleaner!"

"I am also a director!"

"Reserve director!"

After glaring at the female cleaner, the Aquarius Director's face sank, and he scolded with slight dissatisfaction:

"Do you know what the situation is below? The best result for me and the Director when we go down is to face two True Gods of the King-Slaying Society!"

"And in the worst case, we might even face nearly a million tribesmen of the Earth Three Tribes, as well as three Zodiac-level Earth tribe leaders! Is this level of mission something you can participate in?"

"I can definitely help!"

The female cleaner said anxiously:

"Even if I can't fight those tribe leaders, I can fight those ordinary Earth Three Tribesmen! Uncle Grandpa! I want to be with you..."

"Listen! This is not the time for you to be willful!"

The blue-haired old man, who had always been very gentle with the female cleaner, frowned and scolded angrily:

"Have you forgotten about the Watchtower Palace? Your and Harvey's bloodlines are so important; you shouldn't have come down to take risks in the first place! If you were folded down here just to trade for a few Earth descendants, how would I explain it to the Bureau? How would I explain it to all of humanity?"

"I..."...

I finally understand, this old man is pointing at me with his words!

Listening to the Aquarius Director scolding Meli on the surface but actually reasoning with himself, Hearing Li Ang's eyes flashed with realization.

He estimated that he saw himself bringing the blue-haired king, who was an "ordinary person," down, so he suspected that he already knew the truth about his "parents' revenge" and was preparing to bring the female cleaner and her brother into the big battlefield below, then find a reason to send them off to avenge his parents.

But he hadn't done anything yet. He couldn't point out his "ulterior motives" directly, and they were about to face a big battle to guard humanity. He really couldn't have internal strife at this time, so he had to choose a roundabout way to try to make him give up the plan to kill the female cleaner and her brother.

The problem is that I didn't have this plan in the first place...

Shaking his head helplessly, Hearing Li Ang stopped the conversation between the grandfather and granddaughter, took out the black goat, and handed it to the blue-haired old man, whose expression was a bit tense.

"Director Balto, I brought Meli and her brother down specifically because I have other plans, but it is definitely not the kind you guessed. It is to ensure that we can complete this mission and protect the humans in the North and even the whole world."

Pointing to his stable soul, which was clearly not lying, Hearing Li Ang said sincerely:

"Don't worry, if it is really very dangerous below later, I will immediately arrange for a nightmare messenger to swallow Meli and her brother, and then hide in the farthest position to ensure their safety as much as possible... or should I just eat them?"

"Uh... that's not necessary..."

Looking at Hearing Li Ang's sincere and honest soul without any disguise, the blue-haired old man's eyes showed a touch of shame. He returned the disgusted goat head, then bowed to Hearing Li Ang, who was standing in front of him, with a solemn expression.

"Sorry, Director, I thought of you too badly."

"It's okay, what I did is indeed a bit strange. It is very normal for you to think so."

"But I didn't tell you directly, but instead... *Sigh*!"

After sighing with shame, the Aquarius Director shook his head and mocked himself:

"People get old, have many thoughts, and always like to think of people in the worst way... I have been completely surpassed by you young people."

"..."

(＠_＠;)？？？

No... what exactly are you guys talking about? Why didn't I understand?

"Director Balto, let's talk about the mission!"

After glancing at the real "young man" opposite who was full of question marks, Hearing Li Ang asked:

"I haven't been a director for long, I haven't read many files and secrets, and I don't know anything about the past. So can you tell me about the situation of the Earth Three Tribes?"

"Okay."

After glancing at the female cleaner who was full of question marks, the blue-haired old man shook his head slightly and began to tell:

"The so-called Earth Three Tribes are actually one of the original inhabitants of this world. Long before we humans arrived in this world, they had already lived here."

"It's just that the world was far from as huge as it is now, and the living environment was thousands of times harsher. Most areas were uninhabitable, and they had to rely on a 【Datang】 that penetrated the earth, ocean, and sky at the same time to allow living beings to barely survive."

"So those original inhabitants established nine large ethnic groups around the 【Datang】 standing at the center of the world, based on their way of life and the environment they lived in. Including the witches living in 【Datang】, they are collectively known as the Ten Descendants of Datang."

"And the three Earth clans currently imprisoned in the Stone Marrow Realm are, in order: the Ravine descendants born in the valleys and gullies, the Plain descendants born in the vast plains, and the Cliff descendants born on the mountain peaks and cliffs. They are born with the magical power to move the earth."
