Chapter 241: Di Leina Has Returned

How embarrassing.

"Chief Engineer, please wait a moment!" Qing Long said without looking back.

"I can take him down immediately!"

After saying this, Qing Long prepared to continue his attack.

But the ragged figure opposite him no longer had any intention of fighting, instead rushing toward Ye Cang regardless of everything.

The figure was also shouting.

"Ye Cang! Ye Cang! Quickly tell that guy to stop! It's me!"

"I am Di Leina! Di Leina!"

As she spoke, she used her dirty hands to take off the scarf covering her face.

Immediately, a familiar face appeared in Ye Cang's eyes, it was just... um... Di Leina's little face was covered in dust, as if she had just come off a battlefield.

At the same time, Qing Long's Power Sword slashed over, but fortunately, Ye Cang reacted quickly enough to grab Di Leina's clothes and pull her to the side.

Qing Long's Power Sword struck the ground, carving a deep crack into it.

"Qing Long, I know this person, you can stop now," Ye Cang said to Qing Long.

Upon hearing this, Qing Long put away his Power Sword and Power Armor without a word, saluted Ye Cang, and left the area.

After Qing Long's figure disappeared, Di Leina then said: "Wow, Ye Cang, how long has it been since we last met."

"Your subordinate actually has such a powerful Super Soldier, and a Third Generation God Body at that."

"Impressive!"

But Ye Cang did not speak, instead silently distancing himself from Di Leina.

This behavior of Ye Cang's made Di Leina very dissatisfied.

"Hey hey hey! Ye Cang, what do you mean by that!" Di Leina said with a dissatisfied look.

"Is it a loss for you to stand so close to me, the goddess? It's clearly me who's at a loss!"

Ignoring Di Leina, Ye Cang turned and walked toward his office.

Seeing that Ye Cang was ignoring her, Di Leina huffed, then hurriedly followed.

Just like that, the two returned to the office one after the other.

Looking at Di Leina sitting on the sofa, Ye Cang finally spoke.

"Explain yourself, Di Leina."

"Why did you get into a fight with Qing Long? If I remember correctly, didn't you return to Lieyang?"

Once Ye Cang brought this up, the previously boisterous Di Leina suddenly lowered her head, revealing a guilty appearance.

For a long while, she did not speak.

After a full 2 or 3 minutes, under Ye Cang's gaze, Di Leina then whispered: "That, that... how should I put it?"

"I returned to Lieyang, so naturally I can come back too."

"As for why I got into a fight with that guy named Qing Long, it's... it's..."

"It's just that I wanted to climb through the window into your office to find you like I used to, but who would have thought I'd be caught red-handed by that guy named Qing Long."

"He didn't even give me a chance to explain and just started attacking."

By the time she finished, Di Leina's voice was already as quiet as a mosquito's.

But Ye Cang could still hear one meaning from her tone.

Which was, this isn't my fault!

However, right now, Ye Cang couldn't be bothered to argue with Di Leina about why she was climbing through windows again.

The point now is why she returned, and why she was in such a disheveled state, as if she had just finished picking through trash.

A dignified Lieyang Main God picking through trash?

Hmm, interesting.

Shaking his head, Ye Cang made a phone call.

"Send a lady over, there are some things here that need her to handle."

One minute later.

A woman arrived at Ye Cang's office.

Seeing this, Ye Cang said: "Take Di Leina to take a bath and change her clothes."

The woman nodded and signaled for Di Leina to follow her.

Soon, the two left the office one after the other.

And Ye Cang silently decomposed the sofa Di Leina had just been sitting on.

Because the sofa that Di Leina had just sat on had turned black and was emitting a foul, rancid smell.

Yes, the reason Ye Cang had distanced himself from Di Leina earlier was because she was emitting a rancid smell.

This made Ye Cang wonder, had Di Leina actually gone to pick through trash?

But thinking about it carefully, Ye Cang dismissed this thought.

At the very least, Di Leina was a Main God of Lieyang; she wouldn't be reduced to the point of picking through trash, so saying she was picking through trash was purely a joke.

One hour later.

Di Leina returned to the office.

At this time, she had changed into ordinary clothes, her hair was draped casually over her shoulders, and the rancid smell on her had been replaced by the scent of soap.

This time, Di Leina sat opposite Ye Cang.

Ye Cang had just wanted to open his mouth to ask her what exactly was going on and why she had become so disheveled.

But Di Leina spoke first: "Ye Cang, I'm hungry!"

"I want to eat!"

Ye Cang:...

Why is she so much trouble?

I should have just let Qing Long stab her to death earlier!

Another half an hour passed.

Di Leina ate the last bite of food on her plate, then patted her little belly with satisfaction and leaned back in her chair.

"Are you full?" Ye Cang's voice rang in Di Leina's ear.

"About 80 percent full!" Di Leina said, squinting her eyes.

"If only I could have a bowl of noodles..."

When she said this, Di Leina's voice came to an abrupt halt.

Because she saw Ye Cang actually pull a Great Sword over a meter long out of his desk drawer.

Ye Cang's meaning was very clear: if you dare to spout one more word of nonsense, I'll turn you into sashimi today.

Although pulling a meter-long Great Sword out of a desk was very unscientific, Di Leina did not want to get hacked.

And so, she quickly sat up straight.

With a serious look on her face, she said, "I'm full now. So, what did you want to ask?"

Seeing that Di Leina could finally speak properly, Ye Cang silently put away the Great Sword.

"Speak, why did you return to Earth? Why did you end up in such a sorry state?"

After hearing Ye Cang's question, Di Leina let out a long sigh.

"Sigh! This matter, well, it's a long story! It's a very complicated affair."

Just as Di Leina was about to launch into a long-winded explanation, she saw out of the corner of her eye that Ye Cang had pulled open the drawer again, so she hurriedly changed her tune.

"Although it's a long story, I can also make a long story short!"

Immediately after, Di Leina recounted everything in the briefest language possible.

The situation was roughly like this.

After Di Leina returned to Lieyang and probed Pan Zhen and the rest of the Three Great Heavenly Guardians, she immediately began her own plan.

Her plan was very simple, nothing more than starting by weakening Pan Zhen's influence, and then fostering her own power.

At the beginning, the plan went quite smoothly.

Pan Zhen was demoted all the way from Regent down to an ordinary official, no longer able to interfere in major court affairs.

The power she fostered also grew day by day, and before long, it had matured significantly.

However, Di Leina then intended to frame Pan Zhen with a trumped-up charge to make him disappear completely.

But what no one could have ever expected was!
