The Fourth Lingshi Financial Crisis

Chapter 291 The Fall
"When did Grandpa entrust me to you to take care of me?!"

When Li Qingning heard Yang Lu's words, she blushed immediately, but she still insisted on her own opinion: "Anyway, you can't go! I will solve the troubles I caused myself, and I will solve them in my own way. I must not get you into trouble because of this! If you accidentally die in an extraterritorial battlefield, who should the Qingning Chamber of Commerce find to manage it in the future?"

Seeing that the eldest lady was so concerned about her own safety, Yang Lu was moved, and quickly comforted her: "You don't need to worry about me. Although the battlefield outside the territory is full of bloody killings, it is definitely not enough to survive with a big fist. I must have made sufficient preparations before leaving, and I will definitely not rush in to give away the head in vain!"

"Are you sure you're not messing with me?"

"Everything I said is true! I went to the foreign battlefield to help you. If it was so easy to get myself into it, I wouldn't be worthy of being an advisor to the Qingning Chamber of Commerce!"

"If we both leave, who should take care of the Qingning Chamber of Commerce?"

"He Mingyuan can take care of us temporarily. If you are worried, my enlightenment teacher Xu Yannan can also help supervise. President Li should have told him to let him take care of us. Although He Mingyuan is shrewd, he wants to fool Xu Yannan. It's not that easy for a teacher, not to mention, we've only been away for less than two months, and I'll be back to preside over the work soon."

After some good talk and bad talk.Li Qingning finally half-believed and said: "Aside from this Gu worm, what other plans do you have?"

Yang Lu waved his hand, and said mysteriously: "There is no special plan. After all, the plan cannot keep up with the changes. After the general direction is determined, the key is to adapt to the situation. The kind of jokes that take one step and watch a hundred steps can only appear in the story. In the meeting, the real world is a chaotic system, how can we make so many plans in advance?"

Seeing that Yang Lu had made up his mind, Li Qingning had no choice.

After all, the legs are on Yang Lu himself, so she can't put Yang Lu under house arrest and prevent him from going out!
Seeing that Li Qingning finally gave up trying to persuade him, Yang Lu carefully put the glass bottle containing the Wealth and Suffering Gu into his arms (living things cannot be put into the storage bag, although Yang Lu does not know the principle of this setting, but There are indeed various settings in the Kyushu cultivation world that seem to be very cultivated, but they cannot withstand scrutiny when you think about it carefully), and then throw Elder Fei Fan’s natal flying sword into the air, this natal flying sword is like receiving the owner’s He quickly shot back in the direction of Yunlai City, and disappeared completely after a few breaths.

After watching Elder Fei's Fei Jian leave, Li Qingning took a deep breath and prepared to redouble his efforts to practice ultimate magic moves. After hearing that Yang Lu would personally accompany her to the battlefield outside the territory, the pressure on her, the leader of the team, also doubled.

However, at this moment, another golden ray of light flew from the sky in the distance, disrupting Li Qingning's practice plan.

"This light is... Uncle Zhou?"

As soon as Li Qingning finished speaking, the ray of escaping light had already arrived first, falling directly in front of the two of them.

Seeing Steward Zhou's figure gradually emerge from the twilight, Li Qingning couldn't help but wonder: "Uncle Zhou, didn't you cooperate with He Mingyuan to interrogate the corrupt elements at the City Lord's Mansion? Why did you come back to the Chamber of Commerce so early today?"

However, Steward Zhou did not bow down to answer the eldest lady's question as usual, but looked at Li Qingning with a very complicated expression, but said nothing.

This abnormal behavior immediately caught Li Qingning's attention.

The eldest lady raised her eyebrows and said in a displeased tone, "Uncle Zhou, what happened to you today?"

"Miss... oh..."

Steward Zhou just sighed helplessly, but still didn't answer Li Qingning's question directly.

Seeing that Li Qingning was about to explode on the spot, everyone suddenly heard a loud bell ringing from the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

The ringing of the bell continued for a long time, making the whole sea cliff city hear clearly. The last time Yang Lu heard such a loud ringing, it dates back to the time when the Black Lake Jiao King led the monsters to besiege Tianshu in the city.

It's just that the bell ringing in Haiya City this time has a slow and long rhythm, and it doesn't sound like an alarm at all.

I don't know why, but the sound of the bell gave Yang Lu a very familiar feeling. This sense of familiarity did not come from himself, but from the distant memory left by his predecessor "Yang Lu in Haiya City"...

"This bell is..."

Li Qingning was the first to turn his head away, and then Yang Lu also realized what had happened, while Steward Zhou sighed deeply again, and said in a heavy tone: "Miss, this is the death knell, please mourn..."

Yang Lu quickly looked at Li Qingning, but Li Qingning just stood still in a daze, looking a little lost.

"Well……"

Her tender lips trembled slightly, but she couldn't utter a complete syllable.

The last time Haiya City rang the death knell, it was three years ago when Tian Shangcheng, head of the Shenhuo Sect, passed away. At that time, Haiya City rang the bell 49 times [-] times to commemorate the head of the Seven Schools who stood at the top of the Kyushu cultivation world. Door.

Today, however, the death knell rang ninety-nine and eighty-one times!
As the highest standard of courtesy in the Kyushu cultivation world, looking at the entire Zhongzhou mainland, there are only two or three people who are qualified to let the major cities ring the death knell in this way to see them off. Combined with Zhou's abnormal performance, the conclusion is obvious. The thing that Li Qingning had to face finally happened as scheduled——

Today's greatest cultivation economist in Kyushu's cultivation world, registered disciple of Ascension Immortal Lu Yang, third president of Lingshi Reserve Bank, and contemporary head of Golden Knife Sect, Li Qingyang, finally failed to withstand the erosion of time, and he was born outside the territory. He died before the battlefield trial began!
Although Li Qingning had been mentally prepared, when this moment really came, she still felt deep fear and helplessness.

Seeing Li Qingning's uneasiness, Yang Lu hurried forward and hugged her soft body in his arms.

Li Qingning neither spoke nor cried, but just wrapped his arms around his waist, tightly clasped his hands and refused to let go.

If it was normal, Steward Zhou would have kicked Yang Lu away when he saw this scene, but today, he just looked at the intimate interaction between the young man and woman in front of him with a complicated expression, and did not step forward to stop him .

At the same time, if someone can stand in space and overlook the entire Kyushu cultivation world, they can see that at the moment before the death knell of Haiya City, a large number of colorful communication spells rushed out of the headquarters of the Wuliang Sword Sect like a mountain torrent. And quickly swept through every remote corner of the entire comprehension world with practitioners.

From the inside to the outside of the headquarters of the Wuliang Sword Sect, the bells of the major cities rang in turn. Even though ordinary people did not receive any specific news or warnings, everyone instinctively looked at the headquarters of the Wuliang Sword Sect. direction.

Not only that, Huoyun State, West Pole State, Southern Man State, Northern Desert State, Eastern Barren State, Arctic State, Borneo State...

According to the absolute distance from Zhongzhou, the death knells of all the major cities in the mainland of Kyushu sounded in turn, and even in the inaccessible Antarctic state, there were small human bases that rang the death knell.

From the Arctic Cold Palace in the northernmost part of Kyushu to the lonely peak of the Antarctic in the southernmost part of Kyushu, from Yajiao City in Borneo State in the easternmost part of Kyushu to Cape Thunder in West Pole State in the westernmost part of Kyushu, melodious bells can be heard everywhere. .

The death knell rang and rang throughout Kyushu!
