Chapter 186: Wait a While! Chatting with Er Zhuang

~7 min read 1,376 words

South China Region, Na Du Tong.

"Yes, that's all!"

Liao Zhong said into the phone.

"What about Gao Lian's deputy?"

Lin Xuan's voice came from the phone, and Liao Zhong was taken aback.

"Immortal, what do you mean?"

Lin Xuan would not mention this person for no reason.

Gao Lian's deputy?

Liao Zhong recalled rapidly, and soon locked onto the figure of a middle-aged man.

"Immortal, you aren't mistaken, are you? That person is a senior executive of the Company, and also a spirit medium for the Immortal-Inviting Immortals!"

Liao Zhong's tone was somewhat uncertain.

But if it were true, these bastards had actually infiltrated the Company, and had even become a senior executive of the Company, the deputy to a Regional Person-in-Charge.

If Gao Lian met with an accident, there were not many people who could take over Gao Lian's work.

And this Lao Zhang was one of them.

That is to say, one of these seven regions would very likely fall into the hands of these guys.

Liao Zhong did not even dare to imagine what would happen then.

This matter was quite big.

"Do not leak this out; this is enough. Later I will take action and eliminate them one by one. Before that, do not leak the news."

Hearing the voice on the phone, Liao Zhong hesitated for a moment.

"Immortal, this matter is too big. What if something goes wrong?"

Liao Zhong had a conflicted look on his face.

But the phone was hung up directly.

Liao Zhong took the phone away from his ear and frowned as he looked at the screen that had already gone dark in his hand.

"Uncle Liao, should I go too?"

Chen Duo suddenly raised her head and said.

"You go? What are you going to do?"

Liao Zhong said irritably upon hearing this.

"Besides, you still have things to do now. Prepare yourself and get ready to set off. The person you saw before is Ma Xianhong; this mission is to bring him back."

Liao Zhong exhorted her once more.

Liao Zhong was not actually worried about Chen Duo's safety.

He had originally thought that Chen Duo's strength would be greatly reduced after losing the Primitive Gu, but the result was the exact opposite.

Before, she had been using a massive amount of Qi every moment to suppress the Primitive Gu, but now that the object needing suppression was gone, she didn't need anything else; the terrifying Qi on her body alone far exceeded her original strength.

The Primitive Gu was dangerous, and if it erupted, it would indeed cause great destruction.

But if purely discussing strength, the current Chen Duo was stronger.

"Oh!"

Chen Duo nodded, then stood up.

"What 'oh' are you 'oh'-ing? Anyway, don't act on your own this time; just do whatever others do."

Liao Zhong exhorted again.

If he couldn't keep an eye on her, Liao Zhong would still want to watch her.

He was uneasy.

Having just dealt with the Immortal, now he had to deal with this little ancestor; it was a headache.

Chen Duo nodded and went straight out.

Seeing Chen Duo, whose expression hadn't changed, Liao Zhong felt helpless.

She looked like she didn't have the slightest bit of tension.

And the persons-in-charge of the other regions also began to assemble.

……

"Benefactor, are we going straight to the north?"

When Lin Xuan was on the phone with Liao Zhong, Xiao Qing naturally heard it, which was why she had such a question.

"Wait, the people haven't all arrived yet."

That so-called Xin Gui Ren and his three attendants should not have entered the country yet, so there was no need to rush.

Otherwise, letting a few slip through would not be ideal.

"Er Zhuang, are you there?"

Lin Xuan said, calling out toward the phone.

Xiao Qing and Xiao Bai were both startled.

Er Zhuang?

The phone's lit-up screen was about to go dark when a message popped up.

"How do you know me?"

It was a friend with a blank avatar.

"If I want to know, I can naturally know. Did you hear my conversation with Liao Zhong?"

After Lin Xuan sat down, he said with a smile on his face.

"Nope, Dad doesn't let me eavesdrop. If you hadn't called me, I wouldn't have come over. I know you; you've been very popular lately!"

Er Zhuang said, and also sent a tongue-sticking emoji.

"Your dad's subordinate, that Lao Zhang, is a mole for the little devils. You should warn your dad. But don't let him alert the enemy."

After he said this, Er Zhuang went silent immediately.

It took a good while before there was any movement.

"Really? I didn't even notice."

"Perhaps he knows about you and can avoid your ability, or perhaps he is hiding too deep; otherwise, he couldn't have become a high-level executive at Na Du Tong."

Lin Xuan was not surprised.

"That's true. I'll tell Dad, but I'm busy right now."

Er Zhuang replied, followed by an apologetic doge emoji.

"The matter of Biyou Village?"

"Eh, you know that too? As expected of a Realized Person."

One could detect Er Zhuang's astonishment from the text.

"But I can't tell you the specifics."

Seeing that Lin Xuan did not speak, a message was sent over again.

"Isn't it just about Ma Xianhong of Biyou Village, the matter of the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements and the Transformed Inhuman?"

Lin Xuan shook his head slightly.

"You really do know. Then I won't hide it, hee hee!"

Seeing this message, Lin Xuan thought of Er Zhuang, who only had half a body left, and shook his head slightly.

Whether the Cultivation Furnace itself is good or bad is not certain.

After all, a massive increase in the number of Outsiders will definitely cause large-scale chaos.

It's just that if he wants to break the shackles in the future, it might also cause similar turmoil.

It seems the Company shouldn't agree to this matter.

He, however, did not have such a strong obsession.

It was just a pity for practitioners like Fang Dongtian.

If placed in an era without any restrictions, perhaps they really could have produced a few figures like Land Immortals.

But now, they stare at the path ahead one by one, yet can never ascend it.

The Triple Reflection of the Origin might also be because of this.

Because it holds no difficulty for him, Lin Xuan himself cannot feel the thoughts of those people.

Nor can he empathize.

But this seems somewhat unfair to those who strive to cultivate, although they themselves cannot feel it.

"Why aren't you talking? Do you want to come over?"

A message popped up on the phone again.

"Me?"

Lin Xuan stroked his chin and looked at the text on the phone.

If he went, he would probably give Qu Tong a fright.

Lin Xuan was not very clear about what Qu Tong wanted to do, so he did not intend to stop what Qu Tong was doing.

He also wanted to see what Qu Tong was trying to do with such a large layout.

But teasing this woman would also be nice.

"Sure!"

Lin Xuan said directly into the phone.

"You're really coming?"

A line of text immediately popped up on the phone.

"Wasn't it you who invited me?"

"Ah? I was just saying that."

Er Zhuang was clearly a bit panicked.

She hadn't expected that her invitation would actually bring the other party over.

What if the mission goes wrong?

"You guys just go about your own business; just pretend I don't exist."

After Lin Xuan finished speaking, he put away the phone and turned to look at Er She.

"Let's go, let's go watch the chickens peck at each other."

Er She looked at each other; it was rare to see their benefactor so interested in something.

……

Two days later, at the place where Ma Jinfeng lived.

Qiu Rang brought people out and their tracks were discovered by people from the Company.

After realizing Qiu Rang's identity, the Company issued instructions to the Temporary Workers to first capture a few tongues to ask about the situation in Biyou Village, which would also incidentally weaken the forces at Biyou Village.
