"I'm not entirely sure what it is either. I was just planning to go back to my sect and ask my master. But I can't leave right now," Fei Ling said helplessly.
"You don't know? Then who does?" Fei Hua said dejectedly.
"I don't know either. That's why it's so important. There's no reason why foreigners would know this, but we Chinese wouldn't, especially since the location is in our own country~" Fei Ling said speechlessly.
"You're right. What can we do then?" Feihua said helplessly.
"We can only take it one step at a time, so you have to be extra careful, something could easily happen," Fei Ling reminded her again.
"Okay, Mom!" Fei Hua teased.
"What nonsense are you spouting? Be serious!" Fei Ling scolded.
"Okay, I know. That's so mean~" Fei Hua pouted and muttered.
"It's not that I'm fierce, but this is a matter of life and death; one wrong move and something terrible could happen. Do you think I could be careless?" Fei Ling explained patiently.
"I understand. Let's take this opportunity to teach Li Yang a lesson and see how arrogant he can be then!" Fei Hua said smugly.
"Alright, that's all for now. Just be careful. Contact me anytime if anything happens." Fei Ling saw someone come in and hurriedly tried to hang up.
"Okay, don't worry!" Feihua hung up the phone cheerfully, twirled it in her hand, and it vanished. No one knew where she'd put it.
"I thought going down the mountain would be boring. I was almost bored to death during my seclusion. Besides being able to cause trouble for that guy, I also have such a good thing to participate in. It was really worth the trip down the mountain~" Fei Hua muttered excitedly. A burst of seven-colored light flashed on her body, and a powerful immortal sword appeared in front of her, flying around Fei Hua as if it were alive.
Fei Hua smiled slightly, leaped onto the immortal sword, and with a tremor, flew out with astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, heading straight for Jiangnan City. Fei Ling had told her that the National Security Bureau personnel were still in Jiangnan City and she had to report there today. As for her identification documents, they had already been given to Director Zhou Tong, and she could pick them up from him.
After finishing his business in Jiangnan City, Li Yang called out to his parents and close friends in Jiangdong City, explaining that he had joined the National Security Bureau and had important matters to attend to, so he couldn't return for the time being. He then went back to the hotel where Zhou Tong and his group were staying.
"Why are you back so soon?" Shu Yi asked in surprise when she saw Li Yang.
"There wasn't much to do, it's normal for me to come back," Li Yang said with a smile. Is it really that difficult to get something done?
"Oh. But it's still a bit fast. It's strange that your Bagua Sect didn't have any problems because of your irresponsibility," Shu Yi said, puzzled.
"You don't understand. Those in lower positions use their physical strength, those in middle positions use their intellect, and those in higher positions use their manpower. Do you understand? I am in a higher position. I have hundreds of subordinates under my command who can keep me busy. Why would I need to be busy? I am in charge of overall planning. Do you understand? I am the boss~" Li Yang said smugly.
"I was just expressing my feelings, and you insulted me like this? Do you think I'm easy to bully?" Shu Yi said unhappily.
"I insult you? Damn it, I don't have any homosexual tendencies, and I would never insult you even if I cut myself. But I might consider it if it's about eating Director Wang~" Li Yang chuckled lewdly.
"Hmm, the director is next door. Keep your voice down. He doesn't know about your relationship with Director Wang, and it could cause unnecessary trouble," Shu Yi kindly reminded him.
"Isn't Director Zhou annoyed to have such a spinster under his command? I bet he also hopes for a handsome and capable man to conquer Director Wang, right? I just happen to be the perfect candidate. She can't escape my grasp~" Li Yang boasted loudly.
"Li Yang, you're awesome, I admire you~" Shu Yi said with a wink.
"Are you blind? Why are you blinking like that? Are you trying to flirt with me? You're disgusting me!" Li Yang said, feigning disgust.
"What a scoundrel! Is this how you treat your colleagues?" A clear, displeased female voice rang out, as melodious and rapid as pearls falling onto a jade plate.
"Holy crap, who the hell are you?" Li Yang was startled and almost jumped up. He turned around and stared at the person in surprise.
"Don't you recognize me?" The girl's face darkened, and she said in an icy voice.
Holy crap, why would I know you? She speaks coldly, with an arrogant air about her; she's clearly a haughty, spoiled rich girl, her tail practically wagging in the air. I can't afford to mess with her. And I certainly can't associate with someone like that. But she does look vaguely familiar, though I can't quite place her.
"Do I know you?" Li Yang asked in surprise.
"How dare you not recognize me? I... I won't let you get away with this. I heard your conversation just now, and I'm going to report it to Director Wang," the girl said coldly, her face frosty.
"Damn it, you gossipy woman, why should I know you? Who do you think you are? More famous than Director Zhou, the national arhat?" Li Yang said sarcastically. He had a photographic memory; he could remember someone after just one meeting. He didn't know the silly girl's name, but he remembered what happened on the mountaintop on the outskirts of Jiangdong City. Maria Gao's master had been violated by a monkey demon, and this girl had bravely intervened, only to be driven back by the demon and on the verge of death. Li Yang descended from the sky, not only saving her but also killing the monkey demon.
Chapter 885: A Hole Appeared
But he never expected that this girl would suddenly appear in the hotel room where the National Security Bureau was stationed. However, he never backed down when threatened. He immediately glared at the girl and started hurling insults at her.
The young girl, a pampered and spoiled princess who had never suffered the slightest grievance since childhood, immediately blushed and flew into a rage, saying, "Li Yang, how dare you insult me like this! I won't let you get away with this! You'll regret it!"
"Regret? Haha, my only flaw is that I never regret anything. I never regret what I do. How do you plan to make me regret it?" Li Yang looked at the girl with disdain and laughed.
With a resounding "whoosh," a seven-colored immortal sword suddenly appeared in the room, radiating a sharp and astonishing sword aura. Shu Yi's face turned deathly pale, and he slumped into his chair, utterly powerless to resist. This demonstrated just how powerful the immortal sword was.
Li Yang's heart tightened. Although his cultivation level was no lower than the girl's, he really didn't have any impressive magical artifacts. He hadn't fully mastered the Heavenly Net Blood Transformation Divine Blade, and its power had been greatly reduced by the Seven Treasures Tree Staff. Even so, it was still far superior to this broken immortal sword. However, he couldn't use it because the Heavenly Net Blood Transformation Divine Blade was a typical demonic blade that would draw blood with every strike. Moreover, if he used it, he would be considered a demonic monster, and these so-called righteous demon-slaying guardians wouldn't give him a chance to explain. They would swarm him and kill him.
Damn, with my current strength, I'm no match for her. Looking at Fei Hua, she's just a disciple, yet her strength is comparable to mine. If their master came down, wouldn't he easily crush me? No, I must endure this for a while longer, and only show off my power when I'm a cut above the rest.
"Believe it or not, I'll stab you to death with one sword!" Fei Hua glared at Li Yang and said fiercely.
"Oh, so you think you're so great just because you're shameless? We're not as powerful as you. I'm not shameless, so what if you're so awesome?" Although Li Yang was also feeling uncomfortable all over from the sword energy of that immortal sword, he wasn't as disheveled as Shu Yi. He only frowned and could still hold back. He could still make sarcastic remarks.
Shu Yi inwardly groaned. "Li Yang, you're incredibly audacious! They've already released the Legend of Sword and Fairy series, and you still dare to insult them like this. I hope this girl isn't too stupid and can't understand that Li Yang is cursing her."
"You speak so crudely. Let me tell you, you're no match for me anymore. If you dare to disrespect me again, I'll make you pay!" Fei Hua smugly sheathed her flying sword and said to Li Yang with disdain.
"I know you're powerful. I didn't expect that in just a few days, your strength has broken through to a higher realm. You're truly remarkable, worthy of being a disciple of a prestigious sect. Pills are indeed powerful, and having a master helps you progress so quickly." Li Yang said with a hint of sarcasm.
He sensed that the girl had progressed from the mid-stage of Qi Induction to the late-stage. With her flying sword now unleashed, he was no match for her without using his second primordial spirit and the Heavenly Net Blood Transformation Divine Blade. His own physical body was at the same level as hers, but he lacked a celestial sword.
Only the second primordial spirit can wield the Heavenly Net Blood-Transforming Divine Blade. While the blade itself isn't a match for her, using the second primordial spirit would absolutely utterly crush her, forcing her to her knees and begging for a beating—and it would be a beating with a giant stick!
"Hmph~ Scared now? Let me tell you, my master is the head of Kunlun, the number one cultivation sect in the world. If you dare to harm me, my master can kill you in a single move."
"I'll take your life, I'll beat you to a pulp, he's the number one expert in the cultivation world!" Fei Hua said smugly.
Li Yang was genuinely frustrated. Damn, in this era where connections matter, having a powerful mentor is like having four famous fathers. He really couldn't do anything to this girl for the time being.
It's a pity that I haven't even mastered the cultivation technique I obtained from that mysterious Dharma wheel yet; I've only scratched the surface. My cultivation level has stagnated. Damn it, none of my previous techniques can help me progress anymore, and Chi You's essence blood has mysteriously disappeared. Is my advancement in cultivation going to just stand still like this?
