Chapter 475: Where Are They?

After sending Lang Cailin away, Ling Ping’an closed the door and turned back to look at the food box on the table.

The food box was made of sandalwood, so it looked simple, small, and exquisite.

He looked at the food box and slowly walked over.

Thinking that he hadn’t eaten tonight, he gently opened the food box.

Inside was a small cup with a wooden tube inside.

It wasn’t even as big as a rice bowl in Ling Ping’an’s house.

But in the bowl was a bowl of emerald-green soup.

There were a few pieces of white meat floating in the soup, which seemed like fish.

It smelled very fragrant. He couldn’t help but pick up a white spoon from the food box, scoop up a spoonful of soup, and put it into his mouth.

“Oh…” Ling Ping’an’s eyes lit up.

“This soup…”

“It’s a taste I’ve never tasted before!”

His mouth was full of fragrance.

The taste of glutamic acid was particularly strong.

There were also many kinds of rich taste sensations, which felt like the assorted taste of a delicacy.

It must have used a similar technique or process!

Most importantly, the ingredients were especially fresh.

Although the taste was very complex, Ling Ping’an’s taste buds could accurately identify many of the foods he had eaten before.

There were hens, abalone, and high-quality soup made from the head of a prawn…

Yes, this high-quality soup should have been prepared with lamb, which was extremely delicious.

While the chef was cooking, he should have done a good job of removing the smell of mutton and the sweetness of the head of a prawn. However, there wasn’t a hint of the smell of mutton left.

Other than that, there were also many other ingredients that Ling Ping’an had never tasted before.

Under Ling Ping’an’s taste buds, the rich taste levels and sweetness of the soup were revealed at a glance.

Thus, he happily scooped up another spoonful of soup.

“This world is indeed a place where only delicacies and games can not be let down!”

He savoured the soup happily.

Just then, his phone rang again.

He looked down and saw that it was his aunt.

Ling Ping’an answered the phone with a strange expression.

“Hey, how is it?” The mischievous voice of his aunt made Ling Ping’an feel like he wanted to put a bunch of hairy balls in her hair just like when she was a child and make her wash her head for a long time.

He answered unhappily, “What do you mean, how is it?”

“Is the soup good?” His aunt laughed mischievously, looking like a villain in a TV series who had succeeded in his plot.

Ling Ping’an looked at the spoon in his hand and hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he did not go against his heart. “It’s Good!”

He was a person who always said one thing, two things, and would not lie to his conscience.

The soup was indeed very good.

Of course, this was related to the rich flavor of the soup.

There were many flavors, especially. Ling Ping’an had never tasted it before. It was his first time tasting it, and it was very stunning.

“As long as it tastes good!” Li An’an, who was going up the stairs, tried hard to suppress her laughter.

With a straight face, he replied, “Aunty, don’t mess around!”

“Why would I want to mess around?” Li An’an looked at the elevator and said with a guilty conscience.

Ling Ping’an immediately realized that something was wrong.

“Aunty, what exactly are you doing today?” he asked.

As far as he was concerned, the information about aunty today was probably taking credit from him!

The old man from earlier was probably the result of her working hard for the entire day.

It was just a bluff.

After all, the federal empire had a total population of over two billion.

There would always be people who would fall for the ‘scholarly lineage’.

Wouldn’t that be the case?

Moreover, the history of the Ling Ping’an clan was indeed illustrious.

Undeniably, he was a descendant of a prestigious family.

He thought that with his aunt’s glib tongue, it was more than enough to fool a few fools.

However, Li An’an hurriedly coughed. “Ping’an, in any case, you just have to believe that Aunt Won’t harm you!”

She raised her head slightly, and a look of confidence and pride flashed across her handsome face.

She was the future general of the Empire!

An existence that could rival a country alone.

She herself was a wealthy family!

Therefore, what was wrong with her nephew marrying a princess of a small country?

They were very well-matched!

In any case, the fishing net had already been cast.

The fish had also bitten the hook.

What happened next…

Did he need her help?

Did he need her guidance on the bridal chamber?

Thus, she said seriously, “I’m not going to talk to you anymore. I need to take a shower and have a good sleep. I still have to go to work tomorrow morning!”

As she said that, she hung up the phone.

Ling Ping’an was thus left to listen to the beeping of the phone.

He put it down with a strange expression.

He felt that he had already grasped the truth.

“This aunt of mine…” he sighed. He could imagine what methods his aunt would use in order for him to marry a wife and have children?

But…

Wasn’t this pushing the girl into the fire pit?

He shook his head.

But in his heart, there were some thoughts that gave him a headache.

These thoughts were very discordant.

They were all thoughts that he would never have under normal circumstances.

The thoughts were extremely decadent and old-fashioned.

He quickly shook his head with all his might, shaking off all these thoughts that a gentleman could not have.

But…

“Actually…” he muttered to himself inexplicably, “Only a real man can be true to himself. It’s a true gentleman who is self-indulgent!”

He curled his lips and sat down on the chair with an extremely stupid look on his face.

He supported his cheeks slightly.

At that moment, he felt that he was not Ling Ping’an.

But…

That was an emperor who controlled thousands of worlds and conquered endless space and time.

“I…” In the shadows, he seemed to see crystal clear beads hanging down in front of his eyes.

“Why do you have to worry about these trivial matters?”

Yes!

This kind of thing should not be his concern.

In the next second, Ling Ping’an came back to his senses.

“This is…” he recalled what he said just now.

“Is my personality split?”

Fortunately…

He was a gentleman.

A gentleman could restrain and control the desires and bestiality in his heart.

He stood up and walked to the desk next to the windowsill in the room.

He opened the drawer very skillfully and took out a pen, ink, paper, and Inkstone.

Then, he picked up a wolf pen.

On a piece of rice paper, he wrote a line of words: Lose your animal nature, lose everything!

These words were very insightful.

After all, he was a liberal arts student.

It was normal for him to practice a good stroke.

But…

“When did I become so philosophical?” He looked at the standard regular script on the paper and was delighted.

Looking at these words, his emotions calmed down.

The messy thoughts in his mind disappeared completely in an instant.

“Not bad!” He smiled.

All the previous things were gone in an instant in his eyes.

All the worries and worries disappeared into the clouds.

His optimism and free and easy went online again.

“Why do you think so much?” He walked to the table and looked at the delicious soup.

“You must enjoy life to the fullest. Don’t let the Golden Cup be empty against the Moon!”

As a person, don’t mind those trivial matters.

Yes!

Everything in the world is trivial.

We only need to enjoy ourselves in time!

Anyway, the bridge will be straight when it reaches the bow.

There was nothing in this world that couldn’t be crossed and couldn’t be dealt with.

This was his self-protection mechanism.

By relying on this, even though he became an orphan at the age of ten.

However, for more than ten years, Ling Ping’an could live well on his own.

He could also take good care of himself and even take care of his aunt.

Therefore, he picked up the spoon and scooped up the soup from the food box.

The hot soup was delicious, and the fish was tender and sweet.

Very good!

That’s it!

Enjoy this moment!

…

Li An’an took out her key and opened the door.

“Captain, you’re back?” Chu Weiwei turned around from the hall.

Li An’an changed into her slippers at the door and nodded. “Yes!”

Chu Weiwei asked, “Have you read the briefing today?”

Li An’an shook her head.

Chu Weiwei said, “Last night, Yan Sheng sect was restrained. A mighty figure made a move at the cross slope and killed Yan Sheng Sect’s chief deacon, the infamous Blind Ding!”

“Now, the cross slope has regained its peace!”

“The report said that the commander-in-chief intends to establish an organization directly under the transcendent being-safe Joint Conference…”

“It’s specially used to test the power of the Yin Department…”

Li An’an’s eyes lit up when she heard this. “Yin Department?”

Of course, she knew about the cross slope.

After the rebellion, she was responsible for escorting a batch of Fu sang ghosts to the cross slope.

However, the cross slope in the past could only serve as a shelter for ghosts.

Even if the Blackguard had the home field advantage, they could only play a small role.

However, they still had to be careful of the hidden dangers.

After all, the cross slope held all kinds of ghosts that the blackguard had captured and found from all over the world over the past hundred years.

Once it exploded, the imperial capital would have to bear the brunt.

But there was no good way.

When it came to the netherworld, other than the ghosts and gods who held the power of the Netherworld, no one else was useful.

Currently, the Blackguard was planning to establish a department of the nether world. It seemed like they were going to take over the cross slope and build it into a nether world controlled by the state.

What exactly happened?

Li An’an immediately took out her phone and logged into the security system, after which she saw a brief report.

She read it carefully.

“Young Master X?” She realized something. “The Almighty who helped us at the cross slope is called Young Master X? That’s so weird!”

Chu Weiwei chuckled. “Yeah, it’s so weird!”

She probed, “Captain, I heard that Young Master X is very young role model for the current generation…”

“More importantly, it is said that young master x is unmarried and single!”

“Now, in and out of the imperial capital, who knows how many people are coveting him!”

Li An’an laughed when she heard that and teased, “Weiwei has taken a liking to him?”

She raised her head and teased Chu Weiwei, “That’s true… Weiwei is a big girl! It’s time for her to get married!”

“But…”Li An’an had a playful expression on her face, “Weiwei, it’s not good for you to be like this!”

“If Little Ping An finds out that you’ve fallen in love with someone else, she’ll probably be sad!”

Chu Weiwei’s young and tender face immediately turned red when she heard that.

Her eyelashes couldn’t help but flicker.

She was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on!

“Captain!” Chu Weiwei felt like her little face was like a steamed egg which was boiling hot. “You’re making fun of me again!”

Li An’an laughed.

But she had an idea in her mind.

“It seems that Weiwei really does have a crush on Little Ping’an!” She thought.

She couldn’t help but feel regretful in her heart.

If she had known that Chu Weiwei was really interesting, why would she go to the exhibition center and be so busy?

In this matter, Li An’an was like a shrewd peddler who had her own plans.

However, on second thought, Li An’an didn’t care anymore.

Because, a black cat and a white cat, a cat that could catch mice was a good cat!

Whether it was Chu Weiwei, those princesses, or that Lu Fei’er whom she met later on.

She would support whoever was able to marry into the Ling family in the end.

After all, she knew her own nephew very well.

Although in her eyes, Ling Ping’an was an unpolished piece of unpolished jade. With just a little bit of sharpening, he would be able to emit a brilliance that would dazzle the world.

However, most people in the world were blinded by fame and fortune.

Not everyone could be like her, with a pair of eyes that could discover and feel the advantages of Little Ping’an.

So, she didn’t do anything wrong!

If she wanted her nephew to get married and have children, she would need to use a mathematical method to deal with it.

That was to expand the base number.

As long as the base number was big enough, anything was possible!

Li An’an didn’t know that Chu Weiwei, who was in front of her, was blushing, but at the same time, she was also feeling jealous.

“As expected…”

“In Senior’s eyes, only the captain is special!”

But…

Wasn’t this something to be expected?

She looked at the captain in front of her.

Even though he was already twenty-seven years old, almost twenty-eight years old.

But the captain’s skin was still as tender as a young girl’s. Very often, Chu Weiwei was filled with envy.

That pretty face that was no different from a young girl’s was filled with collagen.

So much so that when she went out with the captain, others would think that the captain was her elder sister or classmate.

Thinking of this, Chu Weiwei couldn’t help but ask, “Captain, did you go to the deer song villa today?”

Li An’an heard this and shook her head, “I went to the exhibition center today!”

“Oh!”Chu Weiwei naturally knew what the exhibition center was doing today.

“Did Young Master Ling go too?” she asked, feeling inexplicably nervous.

Li An’an smiled and shook her head. “Him! He’s just a Blockhead!”

Chu Weiwei was inexplicably happy when she heard that.

But then she fell into disappointment.

She recalled the first time they met.

The tall and burly monk was like a ray of light, shining into her weak and tender heart, protecting and feathering her.

It was like kissing a bird to protect a baby bird.

At first, she thought that she was lucky.

But later, she found out.

It was because of the Captain!

For the captain’s sake, senior opened his wide and thick arms to protect the tender her.

So…

“I’m just an insignificant little girl..

“Perhaps in Senior’s eyes, I’m just a Junior!”

…

It was 11 pm now.

Ling Ping’an looked at the time on his phone.

He was about to take a shower and go to bed.

At this moment, the doorbell rang.

He frowned, walked over and opened the door.

It was the young girl from Xinluo. Her name was Yin Mingxiu?

“What’s the matter?” asked Ling Ping’an.

Yin Mingxiu bowed deeply and handed a letter to Ling Ping’an. “Young Master… This is the letter issued by the management committee of Luming Mountain Village…”

“It contains all the arrangements after the formal start of the Fellowship Party Tomorrow…”

Ling Ping’an took it. Although he was curious as to why the Management Committee of Lu Ming Villa did not give it to him directly, but handed it over to Yin Mingxiu.

However, he still nodded, “Thank you for your hard work, Miss Yin!”

“It’s not hard at all!” Yin Mingxiu grabbed his hand and bowed again, “It’s my honor to serve you, young master! It’s also Xinluo’s honor!”

Xinluo people were like this.

They were too polite.

When Ling Ping’an was in university, he had met a few Xinluo students. These people were very reserved and polite in front of the people of the Great Xia Federation.

However…

Ling Ping’an knew that this was only one side of the Xinluo people.

When facing foreign students from other countries, the Xinluo people were extremely domineering.

They often took on the identity of Big Brother.

“They are so quiet, yet they still want to go to University?”

“Even if they set foot on the land of the Central Plains, it is still the same!”

Internationally, the Xinluo people played a role similar to the gendarmerie.

This was because they would always accuse others of being ‘benevolent and righteous’ and ‘lacking in etiquette and preparation’.

In short, the Xinluo people were self-abased and arrogant, which made many afraid of the country.

However, as a gentleman, Ling Ping’an would not deny the entire country of others just because he had met a few people.

Weren’t there still good people in the country?

However…

Ling Ping’an looked at the little girl who stood at the door with a nervous and perturbed expression.

He asked softly, “Miss, is there anything else?”

Yin Mingxiu immediately bowed and took out a small card with his scent on it. Then, she handed it over respectfully.

“What’s this?” Ling Ping’an took the card and asked in puzzlement.

“This is the official service investigation card…” Yin Mingxiu said, “Young master, please fill it out carefully and rate my service!”

Immediately, Ling Ping’an understood it.

Wasn’t this the system of good reviews on the delivery platform?

He nodded and said, “Then wait a moment!”

As a gentleman, he would never make things difficult for others, especially the laborers.

Therefore, he had always given all delivery and express delivery a five-star rating by default.

As he walked back to his room, he picked up a pen and neatly checked all the options, all of which were ‘excellent’.

Then, he took the card and handed it back to Yin Mingxiu. “Okay, go back and rest early!”

Yin Mingxiu took the card, her face as red as a ripe apple.

The excitement in her heart was indescribable.

“Thank you so much!” She kept bowing.

“You’re welcome!” Ling Ping’an chuckled. “You deserve this!”

This was the truth!

Yin Mingxiu had been working hard these past few days and had performed very well.

This was indeed what she deserved, what she deserved.

But he didn’t know that his casual actions would completely change a person’s fate.

Yin Mingxiu held the card excitedly.

She looked at the big shot in front of her.

In the end, the other party didn’t ask her to enter.

This made her a little disappointed.

“Maybe my performance wasn’t good enough!”

However, the praise was enough for her.

The young master’s approval and approval gave her a chance.

She could continue to serve and serve him!

This was the rule.

Every three days, their fate would be controlled by these big shots.

The survival of the fittest.

It was incomparably cruel!

Holding the card in her hand, Yin Mingxiu excitedly walked to the elevator and pressed the button.

Walking into the elevator, she watched as the elevator door slowly closed.

In the end, she cried out in excitement, her small face filled with a brilliant color called happiness.

At this moment, she could finally let out a long breath.

The entire family, and even the entire hometown, would be proud of her success today!

But…

“I can’t be proud!”

“Remember your duty!” she reminded herself.

The elevator slowly descended.

When it reached the eighth floor, the elevator door opened.

A man in a security uniform walked in.

The other party smiled at her kindly.

Yin Mingxiu hurriedly nodded and retreated to a corner, clutching the card in her hand tightly.

“Miss… “the man pulled at his collar and asked, “Are you the one serving the person on the ninth floor?”

Yin Mingxiu looked at the man warily.

With a beam, he remained silent.

He just looked at the elevator.

After a while, the elevator stopped on the sixth floor and the man walked out.

Yin Mingxiu hurriedly pressed the button to close the elevator door.

…

The man in the security uniform walked to the corner of the sixth floor corridor.

Someone was smoking here.

The man was wearing the same security uniform as him and was a little thin.

“How is it?” he asked the other party.

The other party shook his head, and his skinny face showed some annoyance.

“No one has a way to get to the ninth floor!”

“I’ve tried everything, but I still can’t get close to it!”

“It’s a maze that seems to overlap with countless spatial cracks!”

“No matter how hard I try, I can only wander around the eighth floor!”

The man nodded. “Me too!”

“The elevator is on the ninth floor!”

“But I don’t dare to press it!”

“If I press it, I’ll die!” He said, “It’s just my intuition!”

The skinny man sighed and put out his cigarette.

“I’ll go ask the others!”

They had been here for two days.

The longer they waited, the more likely they would be discovered.

In fact, they had already been discovered.

But…

This was a dead end.

Advance without retreat!

Since they had come here, they had to either succeed or Die!

They had to succeed!

Because…

If they couldn’t succeed, when the commander-in-chief returned, he would be brought back the fruits of the Kunlun mountains.

The Blackguard would completely dominate everything.

…

Zhang Hui gently retracted the divine thought he had released.

The corners of his mouth twitched.

“The Jin and Ming families of the southern Zhou!”

In just one night, he found a pile of rats and flies in the Swallow House.

After observing, he realized that most of them were just afraid.

The reason for fear was very simple.

The falling stars of Mount Kunlun caused the entire Kunlun mountain range to show signs of large-scale transcendence.

In the world of transcendent being, there were resources like oil, gold, and steel.

Without these things, they weren’t worthy of becoming a powerful country.

And without the help of transcendent resources, no matter how powerful a proud son of heaven was, he wouldn’t be able to achieve much just by relying on his cultivation.

Not to mention other things, the dharma swords in the hands of the generals of the blackguard, any transcendent family, could be a treasure that could suppress the foundation of a transcendent being.

And the transcendence of Mount Kunlun meant that the blackguard would be in control of a huge and unprecedentedly rich land of transcendent spirits.

In other words, the Blackguard would receive an endless stream of resources.

These resources were enough for a large number of generals to achieve a breakthrough.

Therefore, under the urging of fear, many transcendent families began to take advantage of the muddy waters to fish in, hoping to approach that person and seek his help or permission.

These people were nothing to be afraid of, nor did they require any attention.

What was truly worrying was…

Where were the people from land of Qin?

Zhang Hui frowned.

He knew that people from land of Qin had definitely come.

Be it the Church of bones or the various parties, they would definitely take the opportunity to infiltrate.

But the problem was…

Where were they?
