Moved, Ye Liubo kissed him again, but Li Qingshan stopped her with his hand. He smiled. "That'll depend on your performance."
Little Ann watched on with interest. He could not lead a child astray.
Arriving on the surface, the sunlight was dazzling.
"Little Ann, how's your refining of the prayer beads?"
"I've only refined a single one." Little Ann counted the five prayer beads in her hand.
"It's fine. Take it slow."
Li Qingshan touched her seaweed-like hair. Little Ann raised her head. Her dark eyes reflected his ordinary face.
Li Qingshan rubbed his cheek. Sigh, the life of a handsome man was like a dream!
… …
"Where have you been during this time? What have you been doing?"
On the highest floor of the Hawkwolf Guard in the Clear River prefecture, the floor-to-ceiling windows filled the entire room. However, Wang Pushi sat on a high-back chair. His expression and bearing were always cold and solemn as he studied Li Qingshan before him. He struggled to imagine just what was so special about him that Gu Yanying would treat him differently.
A genius? She had seen even more geniuses like that than dogs. Only Little Ann had a chance. However, in just two years, he had indeed grown quite a lot. He actually gave off an indescribable sense of steadiness and tranquility as he stood there normally.
"To complete the missions, obviously," Li Qingshan said like it was a matter of fact.
"You've only completed these missions?" Wang Pushi patted the thin mission documents on the table.
Originally, Li Qingshan planned on completing all the missions after dealing with the matters underground, but he had been summoned back in a hurry, so he obviously completed very few missions.
"There's collecting information too." An idea flashed through Li Qingshan's mind.
"Collecting information?"
"I'm a novelist," Li Qingshan said seriously. He stared ahead.
"What bullshit novelist! You're a Hawkwolf guard!"
"Commander, even you can't look down on the school of Novels. Heh! "Li Qingshan remembered the shoddy excuse Liu Chuanfeng had given him when he first met him.
"What are you laughing at? Now. I don't care what family you're from. Go and complete this mission. "Wang Pushi took out a mission document from the drawer. He threw it on the table in front of Li Qingshan.
"The Green Vine mountain has been attacked", "two sect masters have been killed", "the revenge of the underground daemons". These words immediately popped up, landing in Li Qingshan's eyes.
Sure enough, it was as expected!
Flipping through page after page, Zhang Xuan explained the cause and effect of the incident in great detail. When he flipped to the last page, it was the painting that Chu Danqing had drawn, and it immediately attracted his full attention.
"That's right. The one who committed this crime is this monster. He's at the Demon General Realm, so he should have passed the Heavenly Tribulation not long ago. It might not be an ordinary beast. It's likely to be a mixed-blood descendant of a powerful monster. "Wang Pushi noticed Li Qingshan's strange expression, but he misjudged Li Qingshan's thoughts.
Heh, I'm so goddamn handsome!
The corner of Li Qingshan's lips twitched, and he held back his smile. He said sternly, "With my cultivation, I can't deal with such a powerful daemon. Why do you say he's a mixed-blood descendant?"
"It's just an investigation. Little Hua has seen his original body before, and there's even a record. His original body possesses ox horns and a tiger's tail. He even possesses a basic human form. It's very likely that he's a descendant of an ox daemon and a tiger daemon."
What a brilliant analysis! Li Qingshan applauded inside before shoving the document into his hundred treasures pouch. Investigating his own murder case felt like the plot of a detective drama. Would the police be the murderer in the end?
"Yes, I'll do it right now."
"Hold on!" Wang Pushi leaned back in his chair. Suddenly, he remembered Gu Yanying's instructions. He stopped Li Qingshan. "Don't forget to write a report."
"Report? Why do I need to write a report? "Li Qingshan looked back in surprise.
"Since it's an investigation mission and not a vacation, of course, you have to write a report."
"Alright, I understand." There was nothing Li Qingshan could do. He just casually wrote it down and dealt with it.
"You have to add your own opinion. It has to be no less than ten thousand words!" Wang Pushi added. Since it was Commander Gu's instructions, regardless of whether he could understand the meaning behind it, he had to complete it 100%.
Anyway, he didn't need to complete it.
Bang! Li Qingshan flashed back and slammed the table. "Commander Wang, you're not messing with me, are you? Who needs to write so many words in a report?! "
"You're a novelist, right?"
"Uh … so what if I am?"
"If you are, then scram and write it! I won't forgive you if you miss one word! "Wang Pushi's cold aura surged out.
Bang! Li Qingshan flew into the wall of the corridor, and the door closed in front of him.
Li Qingshan exhaled. Novelists were people too. Writing ten thousand words, wasn't that asking for his life?
At this moment, two familiar figures appeared before Li Qingshan, staring at him in surprise.
"You're … Diao Fei, and great hero Yu!" Li Qingshan blinked and made out their faces. They were actually two familiar people he had not seen in quite some time.
"Qing- Qingshan, I've been ordered to investigate with you." As the first senior brother of the Green Vine mountain, Diao Fei would definitely be involved in this case.
"Really? You're a Scarlet Wolf guard now. Congratulations. "Li Qingshan saw Diao Fei's uniform.
"I should be the one congratulating you. Eighth layer Qi Practitioner. How did you cultivate?" Diao Fei was filled with disbelief. Back then on the dragon ship, Li Qingshan was only a first layer Qi Practitioner, an insignificant little Qi Practitioner. In just a few years, he had undergone such a great change.
"I just casually cultivated. Oh right, I'll leave the report this time to you." Li Qingshan smiled resplendently as he wrapped his arm around Diao Fei's neck like he was very familiar with him.
"Apologies. I really want to help you, but commander Wang has specially ordered that only you can write this report. No one else is allowed to interfere with it," Diao Fei said unnaturally. Although he could feel that Li Qingshan's aura had become much calmer now, the feeling from back then was just too deep. He could not stand with a vicious tiger!
"Alright then!" The corner of Li Qingshan's lips twitched. He let go of Diao Fei. "Great hero Yu, why have you come too? Oh right, were you injured on the Green Vine mountain?"
"Fortunately, I wasn't injured. It's been two years, and you've become an adult. I've come to seek refuge with … Zijian. Do you still remember that girl? "Yu Shukuang glanced at Diao Fei from the corner of his eye.
"Of course. She's a genius of our Hundred Schools of Thought. It's a pity that you're too old, so you can't join the Hundred Schools of Thought. That's fine. You can still cultivate in the Clear River prefecture. If you need my help, just let me know."
"Thank you, but I have to return to the Green Vine mountain." Yu Shukuang beamed. Sure enough, he still had not forgotten about his old friend. Afterwards, he became helpless.
"It'll be dangerous!"
"The sect master has already issued a summons, recalling all the disciples. If you don't return, you'll be treated as a traitor!"
"You mean the Green Vine Elder has returned to the Green Vine mountain again?" Li Qingshan's eyes flickered slightly as he asked slowly.
"Yeah!" Yu Shukuang lowered his head and sighed.
Diao Fei suddenly shivered. In that moment, he felt like he was under the claws of a tiger, shivering.
However, this feeling only lasted for a moment. When he returned to his senses, all he heard was Li Qingshan smile. "Looks like I have a report to write."
Was it a false impression?
"Let's go!" Li Qingshan yawned and stretched. That old man really doesn't take my words seriously!
But that's fine too!
In the hall below, Little Ann sat on a bench for resting, leaning on her hands as she waited for Li Qingshan. She swung her legs around. Suddenly, her ears twitched. She heard a voice that she found to be slightly familiar. Afterwards, she immediately recalled the person's name and appearance.
"Zijian, you better stay here. The Green Vine mountain is far too dangerous. Perhaps that daemon will return. You haven't seen it, so you don't know how terrifying daemons are," Yu Lian persuaded painstakingly.
"How do I not know how terrifying daemons are? It's exactly because there's danger that I want to go take a look. I've already made up my mind. You don't have to persuade me anymore. "Yu Zijian frowned slightly. She was determined.
It had been two years. She also wanted to go back and take a look.
Yu Lian failed to persuade her, so all he could do was sigh. His gaze drifted through the hall aimlessly, quickly sweeping past a tiny figure.
Hmm?
Yu Lian looked away again, looking at Little Ann's face in the end. Although he did not possess Little Ann's impressive memory, Little Ann had left a deep enough impression on him. He could not help but make his way over. "You're … that …"
"First senior sister, you're here too! Do you know each other, senior brother? "Although they had never met before, they were no strangers. Yu Zijian had heard of Little Ann, the greatest genius of the Hundred Schools of Thought. The primary disciple of the school of Buddhism obviously had the right to be referred to as first senior sister.
"First senior sister? Tenth layer Qi Practitioner!? " Yu Lian was surprised at first before becoming surprised again. The aura she gave off had clearly reached the peak of Qi Practitioners, the tenth layer. If it were not for the fact that she was so special, he basically would have suspected that he had mistaken her for someone else.
Yu Lian crouched down. "Do you still remember me? I'm Yu Lian! Where's Niu Juxia? Isn't he with you? "
"I do. You're the delivery man."
"You can talk! That was great! Oh my, Zijian, what are you doing? "
Yu Lian was overjoyed, but he felt his wrist tighten. Looking back, he saw that Yu Zijian's expression had changed. She had become extremely serious.
"Senior brother, are you talking about Niu Juxia?"
"She's the child I told you about, the one who was with Niu Juxia. She's very pretty, but she can't talk. She can talk now. Oh right, why are you here? Are you really at the tenth layer? "
Yu Zijian let go of Yu Lian's hand. At first, her head was a mess. Various thoughts flashed through her head, as if she had a fleeting flash of inspiration. It was extremely important, but she was unable to grasp it no matter what.
"Little Ann, let's go!"
At this moment, the three of them made their way down. Li Qingshan called out from afar, and Little Ann leapt off the bench and ran over to grab Li Qingshan's hand.
Li Qingshan glanced at Yu Zijian before waving his hand and summoning a cloud. After becoming a Daemon General and reaching the third layer of the spirit turtle, using water techniques felt as simple as blinking an eye. The cloud he summoned was both large and fine, so he even had to control it a little.
Yu Shukuang saw how Yu Zijian stood there without moving, so he thought Yu Lian had already convinced her. He called Yu Lian over, but Yu Lian was rather confused as well, but he had no time to think too deeply about it.
They boarded the cloud and were about to fly off.
A flash of inspiration appeared in her head, connecting everything together. Yu Zijian suddenly turned around and called out to Li Qingshan's back.
"Niu Juxia!"
