Li Xian had long since seen through the nature of the problem. In the end, this was One-Eye's own choice, and as an outsider, he couldn't be bothered to interfere.
One-Eye was a smart man.
Although it looked like he had taken control of the entire Jiugong family, it was actually an attempted crime, and no one had died.
His sentence probably wouldn't be a death sentence.
Perhaps it would be a long one.
But even if it was a long one, he probably wouldn't have the chance to be locked up with the Mahjong Trio.
The Mahjong Trio actually didn't have anything to do with Li Xian, but since he knew so much, it was naturally Wang Ling who had passed on some of the more basic information to him.
He was well aware that he was just a "tool" to Wang Ling, and would inevitably have to run errands for him in the future.
But Li Xian didn't care about this "position."
Especially after clearly recognizing the gap between him and Wang Ling, he felt that working under Wang Ling wasn't a bad choice.
He could just treat it as cultivation.
After smoking his second cigarette on the balcony, he saw Hideishi Jiugong sitting in his wheelchair, looking downtrodden. For some reason, he suddenly felt the atmosphere a little sad.
"Mr Li. May I ask a question? "Hideishi Jiugong asked.
"Go ahead."
"Why didn't you tell my father the truth?"
"Because it was Eldest Miss Jiugong's idea."
"Her?"
Hideishi Jiugong had an incredulous expression on his face.
"Miss Jiugong Ryoko knows very well what you're thinking, but she doesn't want to argue."
"But … why …"
Hideishi Jiugong lowered his head. "She clearly hates me the most … I'm a cripple, and I don't contribute anything to the Jiugong family …"
"But you're still her brother."
Li Xian said, "Do you remember the candy apple you bought for her when she took you to the temple fair in her wheelchair? That alone is enough. "
These short sentences had already triggered Hideishi Jiugong's thoughts.
Hideishi Jiugong didn't know what on earth was wrong with him, but his tears fell like pearls from a broken necklace.
"Your leg healed a long time ago, right? No matter how many things you did to Miss Ryoko in the past, since she chose to forgive you. As outsiders, I naturally have no right to say anything. "
Li Xian said softly. He patted Jiugong Xiuishi's shoulder and said, "A man's leg can be broken, but not forever. Even if you did something wrong, it's not shameful to stand up and take responsibility. "
Having said that, Li Xian returned to the banquet hall alone.
He felt that his mission this time was quite successful.
Wang Ling had adopted a mission point system for all the ancient experts in the Corpse Burial Picture, including Li Xian and Zhang Zidan.
Every time they completed a mission, they would receive a corresponding amount of points as a reward. Once they had accumulated enough points, they would be able to rebuild their bodies and regain their freedom.
It was a fair trade.
To Li Xian and the other ancient experts, points were money.
Li Xian admitted that he had never acted as a spiritual mentor after a fight. But since he had accepted the task, he naturally had to do it well.
It was about making money.
It wasn't shabby.
At the same time, Wang Ling officially won the Sun Island high school ranking competition behind closed doors as "King Lang."
Even Wang Ling hadn't expected this.
The main thing was that Wang Ling himself hadn't made a move at all …
Every opponent he had encountered had claimed to be a member of the Gray Church and a fan of his.
It was supposed to be a good match … but he was unexpectedly "gifted" to first place.
The most outrageous thing was that at the beginning, these people had even put on an act.
Later, as they put on an act, even the referees at the scene said they were fans of the Gray Church, and the judging mechanism had been changed. Thus, no matter how fake the performance of the match was, it wouldn't be judged as fixed.
In front of him, all the opponents Wang Ling had encountered had fallen like dominoes.
When the one million Sun Island dollars from the competition had been transferred into Wang Ling's digital wallet, Wang Ling still hadn't reacted.
He had never had such an easy match before.
He had gotten the money, and he hadn't been in the limelight … he hadn't violated the Old Wang family's rule of keeping a low profile.
And that wasn't all.
Through this round of closed doors competition, the Gray Church's rules on Sun Island seemed to be expanding further.
…
…
In the Nine Paths and the Office of Academic Affairs, Ueki Junshan's plan to find fault in the closed doors competition collapsed with the public defection of some of the students, teachers, and coaches.
Until now, he still hadn't figured out what on earth had happened.
At the same time, the foreign gentleman sitting next to him, Holland, had an extremely unsightly expression on his face after receiving a call.
Because just a minute ago, the educational investment financial institution they were in had actually been bought out!
Furthermore, the Nine Paths and family had offered a price that the major shareholders couldn't refuse, and the acquisition had been realized!
This meant that the Nine Paths and High School's actual control had now returned to the Jiugong family.
"That's impossible!" Ueki Junshan immediately roared when he heard the news.
He couldn't accept this fact.
As a purebred shepherd dog, he had already invested all his savings and efforts into Holland's foreign educational institution, all for the sake of realizing his true ambition one day, which was to become the headmaster of Nine Paths and High School! To completely control Nine Paths and High School!
But now, the actual controlling stake had been subverted in a short period of time …
This was something that Ueki Junshan could never have imagined.
"Who the hell did this!" Ueki Junshan grabbed Holland's collar in exasperation.
"Mr. Ueki, calm down …" Holland also had a helpless expression on his face. "This is the doing of the Jiugong family's Jiugong Akagi."
In fact, even if Holland didn't say it, Ueki Junshan would have already guessed it.
In the Jiugong family, who else could amass so much money in such a short period of time and swallow up other businesses like a big fish devouring a small fish?
"Akagi? It's him … "
Ueki Junshan suddenly felt as if his body had lost its strength. He only felt unsteady. "Akagi … I thought he didn't think highly of education, why would he suddenly want to become a headmaster …"
"Let me tell you a scary story, Mr. Ueki Junshan."
"What is it?"
At this moment, Holland quietly said, "I heard that Mr. Akagi Akagi has also become a member of the Gray Church …"
"Huh?" Ueki Junshan was confused.
Holland: "Let me tell you another scary story, Mr. Holland …"
Ueki Junshan: "?"
Holland: "Actually, me too …"
Ueki Junshan: "??????"
