Versatile Mage: Soul and Demon Dual Cultivation.

Chapter 179 Leng Qing and Ling Ling Arrive

"Okay, everyone, it's time for us to go back!" Lin Chen said, touching the black snake's head.

“Gah…!!!”

Upon hearing this, the black snake roared again, then took Lin Chen away from here and headed towards its sealed place.

After Lin Chen and the black snake disappeared, the guard mages of the Western Fortress also received news from the surrounding demon tribes.

With the intimidation of the black snake, the surrounding demon tribes all retreated dozens of miles away in shame, with their tails between their legs.

After learning about this, the defenders of Hangzhou City breathed a sigh of relief. Zhu Meng even told Tang Zhong that the Black Snake would no longer be included in the hidden dangers of Hangzhou City in the future.

Zhu Meng has completely accepted the existence of the Black Snake in his heart, and the Black Snake is now completely different from what it used to be. It is not something that can be targeted by anyone. The people of Hangzhou have all seen what the Black Snake has done today.

When the humans in Hangzhou were in the most desperate time, it stepped forward and brought endless hope to people with its own strength. It not only drove out the monsters, but also frightened the monsters. The selfless dedication of the black snake also made Hangzhou an extremely safe city again!

No one is willing to face the world's condemnation, and no one is willing to bear the anger of the people of Hangzhou.

……

The Black Snake incident was over quickly, Xiao Lingling and Leng Qing also returned, and the epidemic was naturally well under control.

Lin Chen can be said to have worked hard and made great contributions. Leng Qing also told about all that he had done. The senior officials of various important departments in Hangzhou expressed their gratitude to Lin Chen.

Zhu Meng also sincerely apologized to Lin Chen, and Lin Chen gladly accepted it. Although Zhu Meng's previous behavior was shameful, Lin Chen still saw his selfless look when Hangzhou was facing a crisis.

The two of them seemed to be able to forget their grudges with a smile. After getting Lin Chen's forgiveness, Zhu Meng even went further and wanted to win over Lin Chen, but was rejected by Lin Chen without hesitation. Zhu Meng did not feel disappointed about this, as he was probably already guessed Lin Chen's choice.

Zhu Meng also wanted to use the corpse of the White Magic Eagle as a reward for Lin Chen, but was rejected by Lin Chen.

Since the Silver Dome Lord did not enter the city of Hangzhou this time, the damage caused to Hangzhou was limited.

After obtaining the corpses of the White Magic Eagles, the defenders of Hangzhou City will be able to exchange them for the things Hangzhou City needs more quickly, and will also be able to restore the entire Hangzhou City to its original state more quickly.

Hangzhou is Tang Yue’s hometown, and it is also half of Lin Chen’s hometown. Lin Chen, who is “not short of money”, naturally hopes that Hangzhou can recover as soon as possible.

The next day, the sky was clear and cloudless. In the golden autumn, leaves were falling all over the place, landing on the ground of Hangzhou, as if covering the city with a layer of charming coat.

The afternoon sun brought bursts of warmth. In the ancient house by the West Lake, Lin Chen and Tang Yue had just finished lunch when two guests came to their home.

"Lin Chen, I have fulfilled your promise. Now it's time for you to honor your promise!" Leng Qing arrived not long ago, and before he even sat down, he stated the purpose of his visit.

Lingling on the side looked at Lin Chen awkwardly. She felt deeply sorry for exposing herself.

In Lingling's opinion, if it weren't for her carelessness, her sister Leng Qing wouldn't have made such an excessive request to Lin Chen. Others didn't understand the power of martial spirits, so how could she not know?

When Lin Chen helped her awaken her martial soul, he clearly asked her to keep it a secret. Now not only has the secret been exposed, but Leng Qing has also taken advantage of it. Lingling is really afraid that Lin Chen will vent his anger on her.

Lingling's feelings for Lin Chen are hard to explain, and Lin Chen had planted a strange seed in her young heart at some point in time, so Lingling is really afraid that she will lose Lin Chen one day.

"What promise? What did I promise you? Why don't I remember it?" Lin Chen raised his eyebrows slightly and said innocently.

"Pfft..." Hearing this, Lingling immediately laughed out loud. She was very familiar with Lin Chen's rogue appearance. Her little head unconsciously turned to Leng Qing beside her, wanting to see her reaction. Lingling, who had never seen her sister being humiliated, was very curious.

Leng Qing didn't say anything, but it was obvious that her cold face had turned ashen. She admitted that she had taken advantage of someone else's misfortune this time, and she also knew that she was in the wrong for exploring other people's secrets.

But the two of them had already agreed before that she would help Lin Chen solve the epidemic, and Lin Chen would help her awaken the unknown power.

Now she has done it, but Lin Chen has gone back on his word. When Leng Qing saw Lin Chen's rogue face, she was so angry that her teeth were itching.

And she really couldn't refute Lin Chen's words. Recalling the previous conversation between them, Lin Chen did not explicitly say that he wanted to help her. He just said that he would talk about it later. However, the hint in Lin Chen's words was already very obvious. But now that Lin Chen was playing tricks, she could do nothing about it.

Just then, Tang Yue slowly walked out of the kitchen carrying a fruit plate.

She had vaguely heard the conversation between Lin Chen and Leng Qing before, and seeing the awkward atmosphere in the room, Tang Yue looked at Lin Chen in confusion.

"Come...eat some fruit, Lingling, Leng Qing, you two should be polite!" Tang Yue placed the fruit on the coffee table and warmly entertained the two. Seeing that Leng Qing's face was still a little ugly, Tang Yue asked in confusion: "Leng Qing, what's wrong with you? Did Lin Chen bully you?"

Leng Qing shook her head. Strictly speaking, this matter was her fault. Even if Lin Chen went back on his word now, it was not Lin Chen's fault. Who asked her to explore other people's secrets? It was just that Leng Qing was a little unwilling.

Seeing that Leng Qing was unwilling to say more, Tang Yue turned her gaze to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen smiled slightly and told Tang Yue everything that had happened between them before.

After listening to Lin Chen's narration and combining it with the conversation between the two people she had heard in the kitchen before, Tang Yue finally understood what had happened.

This matter is obviously Leng Qing's problem. Snooping into other people's secrets is a taboo for everyone. Strictly speaking, Leng Qing is doomed to die!
Although Lin Chen's behavior was a bit naughty, it was ultimately Leng Qing's problem.

However, she was still clear about Leng Qing's identity. He became a high-ranking official of the Trial Council at a young age. Once upon a time, Leng Qing was Tang Yue's goal.

Knowing Leng Qing's character, Tang Yue naturally understood Leng Qing's desire for strength, so in her opinion, this matter could be a big deal or a small one. Judging from Lin Chen's behavior towards Leng Qing, Lin Chen was not attracted by an icy beauty like Leng Qing. Instead, Lingling beside Leng Qing aroused Tang Yue's suspicion.

"Could it be that Lin Chen is interested in such a little Lolita?" Tang Yue couldn't help but think in her heart.
