Lie Ping Hei Lian was promoted by being a salted fish

It was already daytime when Sheng Hongyi returned to the inn.

When I returned to the room, it was empty, which showed that Pang Lian had gone back.

Sheng Hongyi sat down, thinking about the Wu clan's affairs and Qinan's expression.

She felt an indescribable feeling of depression in her heart.

She felt vaguely that there seemed to be some connection between the two things.

But she didn't know what the specific connection was.

She just let her thoughts run wild.

After a while, there was a knock on the door.

Sheng Hongyi didn't even raise her head: "Come in."

No need to think, it must be Penglian.

There was a new fox head in her room, placed in a very conspicuous place.

He knew it as soon as she came back.

Pang Lian pushed the door open and immediately realized that something was wrong with Sheng Hongyi. He deliberately raised his voice:
"Hey, what's going on? Who made our young lady unhappy? I'll go beat it up later!"

Sheng Hongyi just looked up and glanced at him at this time. Hmm, he looked very energetic. Has he recovered after just one night?

As expected, the Alien King has a strong and determined mind.

Even if it is fragile, it won't last long.

"Oh, the Qilin tribe has made me unhappy. Please help me destroy them."

Lian: "...Qilin? Uh, you went out for a while, did you encounter the Qilin tribe again?"

"This is not easy to do, tsk."

Although he said that, his tone was still casual and his attitude was very lazy.

In Lian Lian's opinion, the Qilin clan and the Nine-tailed Fox clan are two races with very similarities.

They are all very extraordinary, claiming to have the blood of divine beasts. Normally, they act high and mighty and will not associate with other races.

What I am best at is doing those little cover-up moves.

Just like other families, they are extremely harsh to the side branches, but they have to cover it up a little, such as paying them a monthly salary, tolerating the side branches to have affairs outside, etc.

Those main branches, regardless of whether they are about to eat someone at the next moment, still try to look righteous.

This is to show your uniqueness.

In the final analysis, it's just the same old story.

The side branches are still the food they feed on.

Such sanctimoniousness is even more hypocritical and disgusting than putting one's badness out in the open without concealing it.

Sheng Hongyi became unhappy when she saw how relaxed he was.

She was worried when Lian was feeling uncomfortable.

When he got better, she felt unbalanced again and was still feeling miserable!

How could this guy be so incapable of empathy?
"I'm not kidding. Not only did we offend the Qilin Clan, but we also offended the Wu Clan."

She said calmly.

Humph, let’s see if you can still laugh.

"...You are really good at causing trouble. What's going on with the witch tribe?"

Pang Lian stopped smiling.

She's about to leave, but she's still causing trouble here and there?

Can it still get better?

"Are you sure?"

If you are sure you can kill the other person, it won’t be a big deal.

He frowned in thought.

Sheng Hongyi shook her head, very confidently:
"No."

Lian: "...what has it come to now!"

He told himself a thousand times in his heart that this was the Black Lotus...

There was no way he could jump up and blow her head off.

Not being able to defeat her is one thing, but she might even counterattack and beat you up.

In that case, he would be the one who suffers.

Also, Hei Lian is not someone else.

She was his best friend and confidant, someone they had grown up with, someone who did not despise him even when he was on his deathbed.

So, if she got into trouble, it was his responsibility to clean it up for her.

This isn't the first time he's cleaned up for her since she was little!

But, why is it that the older she gets, the more troublesome this damn girl becomes, especially recently, when she often says shocking things and never stops getting into trouble, right?
Sheng Hongyi continued to add fuel to the fire. She spread her hands:
"You can't blame me for this. They set a trap for me and hid their identities. I was just smart and figured it out!"

That was exactly the case. Sheng Hongyi felt that she did not lie, but just hid a key point.

She deliberately set that trap because she wanted to find out more.

"Now, I have agreed on something with the Qilin monster, and I have to do it for it before I leave."

"However, I think the witch tribe might ruin my business, because I don't want to pay attention to them, but they have already noticed me."

"Besides, I always feel that the Wu Clan has already started to pay attention to me. Since cooperation is not possible, then we are enemies, not friends."

Sheng Hongyi was very relaxed in front of Yan Lian. Even when talking about the important matters concerning herself, she spoke about them piecemeal.

Peng Lian remained silent.

It's not that he doesn't want to talk, but that he can't speak.

He was too lazy to ask, what did she promise the Qilin Monster? Why did she promise it?

In short, Hei Lian has her reasons.

Also, don't think that Hei Lian is crazy just because she always looks so arrogant.

Lian knew her. She was a little bit crazy, that was just her personality. But she had her own rules for many things.

He is definitely not the kind of person who is ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.

He felt that the most difficult issue was the matter of the witch clan.

The Witch Clan, a mysterious race whose methods he didn't even know what they had, how could he help Hei Lian?

Sheng Hongyi had no intention of hiding anything from Hong Lian. Everything that happened today, including the so-called secret between her and Qinan, could be told to Hong Lian.

She took out the wine bag, drank some wine, and prepared to tell the whole story in detail.

Just as she was talking about how powerful she was and how she escaped from the space talisman set up by Master Wu San, Sheng Hongyi suddenly stopped talking.

Lian: "What?"

Sheng Hongyi asked curiously:

"Why did Bai Lian send me a message?"

They had just exchanged messages not long ago. Although Bai Lian and Hei Lian depended on each other, he was not the kind of person who would stick to his sister all day long.

In fact, Sheng Hongyi discovered that Bai Lian today has a similar temperament to Jingke in later generations.

Calm but not weak, his love for Hei Lian is sincere and deep but will not become a burden.

She is like a deep and still stream, looking almost silent and nothing special.

However, only those who are in it will know how reliable and powerful the gurgling water is.

The two looked at each other and both felt something was wrong.

Lian stood up and walked out:

"Listen to what Bai Lian has to say first. I'm going to go outside for a walk."

This is active avoidance.

If the Black Lotus sisters talked about something private in their messages, it would not be nice for him to hear them.

No matter how close friends are, Lian believes that there needs to be boundaries.

Sheng Hongyi did not stop him. There had always been a tacit understanding between the two of them, and there was no need for any polite words.

After Yan Lian left, Sheng Hongyi clicked on the communication talisman, and a white lotus blossomed in the air, from which came the voice of the white lotus:
"Sister, last night, I..."

There were only a dozen sentences in the message talisman, but it told the whole story.

Sheng Hongyi straightened her back and stood up from her seat. Even the wine in the wine bag no longer smelled good.

Things are not going well.

The witch tribe has already spread to this extent without anyone knowing? So what will they do next?
If you say that Sheng Hongyi had never come into contact with the witch clan before yesterday, it would be fine.

Even if they turned the entire alien domain upside down, Sheng Hongyi would remain calm.

You can even clap and cheer.

She walked her own Yangguan Road, and the witches just had to cross their own single-plank bridges.

They are unrelated.

But, obviously the situation is different now.

Yesterday, she discovered that the witch clan knew her very well, and even had a vague sense of awe towards her?
Of course, Sheng Hongyi didn't know whether this awe was superficial or deep in her bones.

It doesn't matter either.

No matter what, where does the reverence come from?
Why does the witch clan respect Black Lotus so much?
In addition, she had just arrived at Difang, and her identity was exposed even though she was on guard.

This is very interesting.

If you say that the Witch Clan knows nothing, even a three-year-old child would not believe it.

And, just by coincidence, a member of the witch clan discovered the white lotus yesterday!

They know so much about the "black lotus", how could they not recognize the white lotus?

Not necessarily?

Bai Lian and Hei Lian are twins and have been inseparable since childhood. As long as the witch clan is not blind, they will not miss her.

Bai Lian said that she was temporarily hiding in the house of a new Lan Yao friend she had met, and that she was safe for the time being because the house was protected by a ban.

Tell her not to worry.

How could she not worry?

What kind of restriction? She also mentioned the Nine-tailed Fox Clan, saying that this Lan Yao friend was a descendant of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan, and asked her to ask Kong Lian...

Lian stayed outside for a while before being called in by Hei Lian.

He could already sense the tension in Hei Lian's tone.

Sure enough, as soon as he entered the room, he saw that Hei Lian had already packed up everything, and the wine bag and other small items on the table were all gone!
She was holding a black charcoal pencil...? She was painting on her face without even using a mirror?

Seeing Peng Lian coming in, Sheng Hongyi ignored his speechless expression and said:

"We still have to go, we'll talk about it on the way!"

After she finished speaking, she put away her disguise pen and put on the cloak she usually used when going out.

Pang Lian said nothing else and followed Sheng Hongyi.

Sheng Hongyi went downstairs and checked out of the room.

The shopkeeper was already familiar with her and was a little surprised to see her check out suddenly.

However, it has become accustomed to the comings and goings of guests, and it just feels that it has some affinity with the guest in front of it.

It took the money and said goodbye with a smile:

“I wish you a safe journey.”

Sheng Hongyi lifted her cloak and smiled to thank the shopkeeper.

Her mood was a little disturbed. When she saw the shopkeeper, she thought of those people in the market, Boss Rabbit, Kangaroo Brothers...

She has keen senses and has spent a lot of time in the market, so she has no aversion to the daily life.

Obviously, everyone lives a hard life, but they have no ill will towards others and are often even kind.

Even though it is the Rabbit Boss, it seems very ferocious, but it does not seem to be really cruel to those small vendors.

As for the two-headed lotus tribe...

They occupy the best land in the alien realm, but they do evil things like tearing out people's tendons and marrow!
Good and evil will be rewarded in the end!
The stone man and the arrogant face of Butler Lian flashed through her mind.

It will be soon. She has to take back what belongs to her, and she won't let go of those stone men either.

If we kill them, perhaps these inferior bloodlines in the eyes of the fifteen clans will have a chance to survive.

She walked out of the inn and disappeared into the street with Peng Lian.

On the busy street, people were flowing continuously, and no one cared that two people had just disappeared.

The two of them sped along the road, and Sheng Hongyi told Bai Lian everything she had said, as well as her own speculations.

Yan Lian didn't mention the Witch Clan anymore. He didn't know as much as Hei Lian. It was obvious that Hei Lian already knew the seriousness of the matter.

It’s just that the Nine-Tailed Fox’s tribe member…

"Well, it should be my ninth uncle. He passed away many years ago. I didn't expect that he still has a child."

Lian's eyes were cold. When he was a child, he lived close to this uncle. Uncle Jiu had a good temper and many children from other branches liked to play with him.

Uncle Jiu was also very good to him. If there was any warmth in the clan, it was given by Uncle Jiu.

Even, he awakened his bloodline and the magical power of talisman formation so early, all thanks to his uncle Jiu.

When he was very young, Uncle Jiu might have felt sorry for him because he had no parents, so he would take extra care of him whenever he was at home.

He never hesitates to use his forbidden techniques.

Uncle Jiu said that the art of prohibition and the art of talisman formation are of the same origin.

Although, at the beginning, no one in the clan recognized Uncle Jiu's forbidden technique.

They thought, what could a branch without awakened bloodline realize?

They are all not presentable.

However, Uncle Jiu did not give up.

He taught Penglian a lot.

While teaching him skills, he also kept nagging him and teaching him the principles of being a human being.

For example, hiding one’s shortcomings!
Uncle Jiu said that here, the dumber a person is, the longer he can live.

But this kind of stupidity is not real stupidity.

Because really stupid people will die of stupidity.

Therefore, the people who can truly survive are those who are simple-minded on the outside but smart on the inside.

After hearing the gossip about Uncle Jiu by the clan members, others felt that he was not worthy of being treated like a decent person. Even some children who had played very well with Uncle Jiu when they were young gradually distanced themselves from him.

Uncle Jiu didn't seem to care.

Only he, and his relationship with Uncle Nine, never changed.

The night that Uncle Jiu left the Nine-tailed Fox Clan, he came to find him. He dug him out from under the quilt and gave him a lot of instructions.

Pang Lian was very unhappy at that time because he was very sleepy, and what Uncle Jiu said were the same things he had said to him repeatedly every day.

Talk about it and then ask him: Do you remember it?

He remembered that he nodded perfunctorily at that time.

Finally, Uncle Jiu sighed, snorted his head fiercely, and stuffed him back into the quilt:

"You are such a silly child!"

These were the last words Uncle Jiu left him.

Later, Uncle Jiu disappeared.

Later, they said Uncle Jiu was gone.

But why is Uncle Jiu gone?
There is also Uncle Jiu's restriction method. Lian Lian clearly saw that the restriction at the main branch had changed.

It was clearly Uncle Jiu's, he recognized it.

Because Uncle Jiu taught him how to crack it.

But Uncle Jiu is gone.

He searched for a long time, but today he heard that Uncle Jiu had a child.

"Ripple."

Sheng Hongyi, who was standing beside him, keenly sensed the change in Peng Lian's body.

For a moment, the rage of the dragon grew, as if it wanted to devour something.

But she clearly felt the sadness hidden in that rising arrogance.

It seems that this Uncle Nine is very important to Pang Lian?

"Bai Lian said that the blue demon named Su Xin has a cheerful personality and is very compatible with her. We will definitely like her. When we go there, maybe we can see her!"

Sheng Hongyi comforted Kong Lian.

She actually hoped that Penglian could have more relatives.

Being alone is so lonely!
