Dragon Gate Swordsman

Ahem... divert attention, divert attention.

He lowered his head and was about to write a greeting, but found that due to Xiaobai's "sudden attack" just now, his pen had already made a big scratch on the letter paper.

And what a coincidence, it directly scratched the place where the W was written...

Chongxiao stared blankly at the torn letter paper, an indescribable feeling welling up in his heart.

But at this moment, Ling's voice suddenly came.

"Chongxiao, you..."

The sound stopped suddenly.

Ling Zheng, who was approaching, looked at the girl lying on someone's back with an extremely subtle expression, until she tried to straighten her face, then grabbed the long sword she used for practice and ran back to the building.

Chongxiao didn't take it seriously at all and greeted Ling.

"You are writing a letter?"

"Yes, I've been out for quite some time, and I don't know when I can go back. I'll write a letter so they don't miss me so much."

With both hands, he neatly arranged the written letter and pressed it with a teacup. "Master, you came to see me... because of that incident?"

It’s almost time. If it goes on any longer I’ll feel like you’re deliberately excluding me!

Fortunately, Ling nodded, and his expression became serious. "If it is convenient, please follow me. Big Brother and General Li are discussing this matter."

"No problem, just a moment."

Chongxiao ran back to the room in two steps, put away all the letters, then said something to Xiaobai through the door, and then ran out and returned to Ling.

Then he discovered that Ling had actually set up a barrier around him, apparently to prevent anyone from overhearing their conversation.

"Yang Yun... The news of Alliance Leader Yang's death has not been made public in the past two days."

"After all, he is the Western Leader of the Five Alliances. If he really becomes a member of the Yangshen Cult, it will definitely cause a very bad impact."

"Does that mean you are going to report false news?"

"This is also a last resort..."

When saying this, Ling was a little hesitant.

She had been pursuing a truly free and unfettered life all her life, but how could such a thing be eternal? Not to mention Yang Yunxing's incident this time, how many forced choices had she made when she was a military strategist in Yumen?

But what Ling didn't expect was that Chongxiao said without hesitation: "Indeed, he can't be an undercover agent of the Yangshen Sect. It would be best if he died in the line of duty."

"Chongxiao, this..."

"What's the big deal? Others can't understand you, so why can't I understand you?"

Uh...it's not me who decides how to deal with Alliance Leader Yang's affairs.

Having said that, Ling did not say it out loud... because she suddenly felt that she seemed to like Chongxiao's statement. After all, who doesn't want to be trusted by others?

I remember that during the years when I served as military advisor in Yumen, no one had ever really done this.

Although the soldiers who fought side by side with him were very respectful to him, they were always wary and prejudiced against him and his elder brother because of what Simuitai had done. Even Zuo Xuanliao, who was in a high position, could not avoid this... However, for Chongxiao, was this kind of trust so natural?

"Have you found out what's parasitic on Yang Mengzhu?"

Ling Xiu frowned and shook her head, "No... there is no way to find out. Even my elder brother and I have never seen that thing."

Is it so exaggerated?

Chongxiao still remembered Ling's performance when he was drinking with him in Shendu. He was truly knowledgeable about astronomy and geography, and his knowledge was not limited to Dayan.

In the end, even she had never seen it?

"Things seem to be getting more and more complicated. If we could have kept him alive, we might have been able to find out something useful..."

"That's not necessary."

"……what?"

Chongxiao looked over in surprise and found that Ling's expression was half-smile, revealing a very obvious confidence.

"Actually...Brother and the others have already found the base of the Yangshen Cult."

……

Chapter 102: Split into two groups

"A letter...for me?"

"There is no other person named Muir Seth in this company."

"Hey! I'm just a little surprised."

Muirseth blinked his right eye and deliberately put on a playful and cute look.

If the people standing in front of her were the young male researchers in the company, as well as a considerable number of female researchers, they would probably be easily attracted by them. However, unfortunately, Saria was not among them.

She was just being impartial and had a serious expression on her face, as if she was reminding the director of the ecology department to get down to business.

Seeing this, Muirseth sighed helplessly and reached out to take the letter.

"Longmen... Chongxiao?"

"What? Is there something wrong with this person?"

Hearing the rare tone of surprise in Muirseth's voice, Saria, who was about to turn around and leave, asked curiously.

"No...it's not that there's a problem, it's just that I don't have any marks..."

She paused for a moment, a look of realization dawning on her face, "Oh, right, I met him on the flying airship to Londinium when I was returning from an investigation in the East Country two years ago."

"And then we became friends?"

"Not at all... I actually just chatted with him for a while and he helped me catch my umbrella when it fell."

"Really? Then why did he write to you?"

Muirseth shrugged.

The conversation did not cover anything specific, and was basically just talking about some very vague topics. She could also feel that the other party knew very little. Although they were going to Londinium, their Victorian was very poor, and it seemed like it was their first time traveling far away.

The main reason why I was willing to chat with him was because he helped me catch the umbrella that I accidentally dropped from my hand...

"Throw away the letter."

"…Why?"

"He may very well be another one of your suitors. If I had known this was the case, I wouldn't have even had to hand him over to you."

What Saria said was not without reason.

Although Muerseth does not quite conform to the Colombian aesthetic of plumpness and sexiness, and her height, breasts and buttocks are relatively "limited", the "market" for her sweet and cute style is still quite broad, so she has many admirers even within Rhine Life.

Since returning to the company headquarters to take over as director of the Ecology Department two years ago, many researchers have discussed the topic of Muir Seth, and even if Saria doesn't want to hear it, she knows something about it.

"That's definitely not the case, Saria... If that were the case, why would he write to me after two years? I almost forgot about him completely."

Muirseth opened the envelope, but unexpectedly something small fell out.

With her quick eyes and hands, Saria reached out and caught it in an instant, then spread out her palm... It was a micro-sealed tube commonly used in laboratories, often used to store extracted material samples. As long as the environmental conditions permit, it would not be a problem to keep it for a few years.

"...blood sample?"

"It seems I was right, Saria."

Muirseth's original relaxed expression turned into seriousness, and he took out the letter and read it carefully.

Gradually, her frowned brows slowly relaxed, and an indescribable weirdness emerged in her expression, which made Saria very puzzled.

"What's written on it?"

"Well...it's hard to describe. I can't really put it into words."

Muirseth put down the letter with a smile, "First, he wants me, a person who only talked to him for half an hour, to take good care of a freshman at Tremont Polytechnic Institute."

Now, even Saria, who thought she didn't understand the ways of the world, was surprised.

How can anyone do things like this?

"Who is that new student?"

"A girl named Xuezhi. But that's not the most important thing. What's important is this thing in your hand... It's your 'reward' for me."

Muirseth, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, picked up the sealed tube in Saria's hand and said, "He said that he is highly immune to mineral sickness, so these blood samples should be worth studying."

Unfortunately, neither of the two people present had any special reaction.

In fact, there has never been a shortage of people with strong immunity to oripathy in this land, but if one could extract curative drugs from their blood, that would be sheer wishful thinking... Oripathy has been rampant for countless years, and if it could be cured so easily, it would be an insult to countless scientific researchers.

Of course, because they didn't know Chongxiao's specific situation and the "modest" words used in the letter, Muirseth and Saria didn't realize that Chongxiao's strong immunity was actually close to complete immunity, and even the Originium wouldn't infect the skin directly...

"What are you going to do about it?"

"Give it to Director Parvis' assistants. They are responsible for preserving biological samples related to mineralogy."

"No...I mean the new student."

Muirseth was slightly startled, then began to consider.

Logically speaking, she could have simply ignored the letter... She and Chongxiao were just casual acquaintances, and their relationship was only slightly higher than that of strangers, so there was no need for her to do anything for him.

But who can blame Muir Seth for being a kind-hearted and soft-hearted person?

"Tremont Institute of Technology. I remember the General Manager was going to give a speech there?"

"Yes, next Thursday, from half past nine to eleven."

"Then please report my name, Saria. It's okay for me to go along and take a look."

Rhine Life's general manager, Christen Wright, is a well-known figure in Tremont City and is often invited to attend celebrity dinners or academic lectures. As the director of the defense department and a good friend of the general manager, Saria, who has an extremely high personal combat power, naturally has to go with him as a bodyguard. In addition, the team of entourage is also managed by her.

Admiring Muerseth's kindness, Saria put away Chongxiao's blood sample and was about to say something when she was interrupted by the sudden ringing of her cell phone.

"I'm Saria... Yeah, good! Got it. What's the attitude of the person in charge? Is that so... I understand. Send all the information back to the headquarters. I'll sort it out and give it to Director Parvez first... By the way, tell me the names and ages of the three of them first."

Saria gestured to Muerseth to give her the paper, and then began to write on it.

Kallis, 9 years old.

George Paganis, 11 years old.

Ifrit, 7 years old.

……

Chongxiao sat in the conference room with his arms folded, and anyone could see the resentment on his face.

Compared to the last time I came here, most people were still the same, except Yang Yunxing was missing...

Zuo Xuanliao had a serious expression, as if he was deep in thought about something. Li Wuan and Chongyue looked at each other and saw a faint smile on each other's face. Only Ling's eyes, when he looked at Chongxiao, revealed a hint of apology.

The reason for this scene is very simple: Chongxiao was fooled.

During these three days, the border guards did not do nothing. On the contrary, Li Wuan and Chong Yue had tracked down the cultists through Yang Yunxing, and traced the area where the Yangshen Sect's headquarters was located.

The reason why he didn't tell Chongxiao was because he had appeared at the assassination scene at the Five-Party Alliance headquarters. If Yang Yunxing had already colluded with the Yangshen Sect, or was one of their people, he would definitely monitor Chongxiao... With that kind of mysterious parasitic means, there is almost no place in Yumen that is absolutely safe and confidential now.

The result was that someone rested for three days without knowing anything, while Chongyue and others were busy and even found the Yangshen Cult's lair.

Chongxiao was naturally unhappy... It was just like when he was in Longmen, he was investigating a case and was kicked out of the task force just when he found a key clue.

"Forget it. I will apologize to you. I hope Chongxiao can help me in the future."

"That's absolutely fine. But General, please don't do that again..."

"Natural, natural!"

Seeing the resentment on Chongxiao's face disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye, Ling couldn't help but chuckle with his hands covering his mouth.

She suddenly felt that Chongxiao could be quite childish sometimes.

In fact, Ling was also one of the people who was tricked... She had looked for Chongxiao the day after the incident, and she didn't know what her eldest brother and Li Wuan were doing at the time until just now.

However, with Ling's open-minded personality, even if he was treated like this, he would just laugh it off and didn't take it to heart at all.

Afterwards, Li Wuan briefly described the actions he and Chongyue had secretly carried out and the results they had achieved.

When Yang Yunxing was still the perfect leader of the Five Alliance West, what he did would not attract any attention at all, but that did not mean that no traces were left.
