Heavenly world?

Ye Qing really had no idea about this. Even if he took into account the information he had known in the past, it should have never been mentioned in the Eastern Continent.

Moreover, this statement is more like what the church in the Western continent promotes, the so-called "heaven" controlled by their gods.

But if we talk about the corresponding legends of the Eastern Continent, there are indeed some, and it can even be said that it is closer to the heaven in the Yanxia legend.

If you are referring to the heaven, then it is indeed the world that the so-called immortal cultivators most yearn for.

"Could you please give me some advice, Mr. Li?"

Ye Qing showed doubt on her face. This was information she had never known before, so it was not a good idea to use it to "gamble".

Lao Li, who was sitting opposite her, smiled slyly at this moment, and then returned to his smiling look.

He picked up the tea bowl and took another sip before speaking to Ye Qing.

"I have already said a lot. Isn't it time for Master Qing to say something?"

Well, if I don’t give him some information, I guess Mr. Li really won’t say anything.

Ye Qing sighed. This was something that was expected.

"What do you want to know?"

There is not much intelligence available at the moment. If it comes to information that is too core, Ye Qing can't find any other way except to make it up.

Just when Ye Qing was thinking about how to use the information she had collected before, Lao Li unexpectedly asked a question that surprised her.

"According to my recent observations of the stars, there is an evil spirit coming from the west. I wonder if it has anything to do with Lord Qing?"

Lao Li's folding fan was still tapping against his palm, but the posture had obviously changed.

His originally relaxed body was leaning on the backrest behind him, but he could pounce towards Ye Qing at any time, as if he was ready for Ye Qing to take action.

If you are so vigilant, why bother asking yourself this question?

But the more important thing is that Ye Qing is completely confused. What she hates most is this kind of charades-like conversation, especially when it comes to things like so-called fate.

As for the evil spirit? What is that?

"...Unfortunately, I'm not sure what Mr. Li is referring to. If he is referring to an enemy, there is no such person among me."

Ye Qing shook her head. On the one hand, she didn't understand, and on the other hand, she didn't want to cause trouble at this time.

Since it is said to be evil spirit, it is probably not a good thing.

Lao Li did not give any clearer hints, so Ye Qing could only guess based on the information he already knew.

After hearing Ye Qing's answer, Lao Li sighed softly.

"Really? I was a bit abrupt with this question. In exchange, Lord Qing, please just ask any question you want."

Just when Ye Qing wanted to ask directly about "immortals" and the "heavenly world", Lao Li did not forget to add with a smile.

"By the way, let's not talk about the heavenly world and the immortals for now~"

Looking at Lao Li's rogue appearance, Ye Qing couldn't do anything about him at the moment, but there were still many questions he needed to ask.

She had to confirm the news she had heard from Dick with Lao Li, otherwise she would easily be misled by only listening to one-sided information.

"Who is the power behind the Black Crow Gang?"

Dick had previously claimed to be the city lord's personal power, as if he was intentionally or unintentionally trying to maintain a relationship with the official.

It is not so official, but it is still related to the city lord who is the spokesperson of the official forces, just like a thread that has been cut off.

To be honest, in Ye Qing's opinion, this behavior is just borrowing the tiger's skin.

If the two sides really go to war, the city lord who has not yet been seen may not even have time to abandon him, and at most he can give some secret support.

"Hmm... That's a good question. I think Lord Qing also doubts what the master said. I'm afraid his description is full of contradictions, right?"

Lao Li smiled and touched his chin, and his words seemed as if he were there in person.

Or maybe this wasn't the first time Dick had used that rhetoric.

"This statement has been circulating before he became the current leader. As for whether it was made up by Dick himself, I don't know, but although there are some forces behind the Black Crow Gang, they have absolutely nothing to do with the city lord."

Lao Li shook his head. However, if Ye Qing just said something without any evidence, he would not believe it completely. But then he produced some strange evidence.

He just unfolded the folding fan in his hand and flicked it lightly towards the tea bowl, and the figures of Dick and others appeared in front of Ye Qing.

The tea seemed to have turned into a mirror, reflecting the two figures.

As Lao Li waved his folding fan again, a transparent barrier seemed to rise around the two of them, and every time a sound was made, ripples would be caused on the barrier.

Ye Qing did not ask any more questions and just watched the changes in the tea bowl quietly.

"Have you completed all the tasks assigned to you?"

In the dark room, Dick was facing a strange statue. Distorted and shrill sounds came from all directions, making it impossible to determine its exact location.

"It's done. It's exactly as you said. The strong men who came from the West have promised..."

"Promise? What's the point if we haven't signed a contract yet?"

As soon as the words fell, Dick broke out in a cold sweat.

It’s not that he didn’t want to sign the contract, but Ye Qing didn’t give him such an opportunity at the time, and the reason was reasonable.

If he had acted too hastily at that time, it would only arouse suspicion from Ye Qing and others.

"Please give me some more time, Lord Luo!"

The scene ended and ripples appeared on the surface of the water in the tea bowl until the shadows disappeared completely.

In this brief scene, Ye Qing gained a lot of key information, the most important of which was this "Lord Luo".

If she remembered correctly, the surname of her maternal relatives was Luo, could it be that...

"It seems that Master Qing has gained something. Is it time for me to ask another question?"

Lao Li smiled. He just wanted Ye Qing to see the reality. As for the specific situation, there was no need for him to explain too much.

The two of them currently have at most a delicate cooperative relationship, and even he cannot guarantee that Ye Qing will not turn against him on the spot.

All I can say is that the more things you see, the less likely you will have a more accurate grasp of the results.

"Ask, if I can answer."

Ye Qing nodded. She also recorded what she had just seen and sent it directly to the team channel.

At this moment, the information she saw in the "enemy camp" was confirmed again by Zhao Xin.

"It's still about the Western Continent. I heard that a capable person has appeared in the Western Continent recently. He assisted the former deposed princess to ascend the throne and helped to start the war of unification. I wonder if Lord Qing knows such a great man?"

Lao Li smiled and held the folding fan in his hand. When he mentioned this matter, it was as if he was telling an anecdote.

But as soon as these words were spoken, Ye Qing, who was about to pick up the tea bowl, suddenly became a little uneasy.

Leaving aside the discussion of the unification war, at least within the known scope, wasn't it her who assisted the deposed princess in ascending the throne in the Western Continent?

Could it be that what I did in the Western Continent has also affected the Eastern Continent?

"How can a small character like us know such a big shot? But before coming here, I heard that the big shot seemed to have already joined the war on the front line. If Mr. Li wants to meet that person, it is better to travel across the ocean to see him."

Ye Qing took a sip of tea. Before that, she had secretly applied the purification talisman on herself.

Fortunately, the spell effect was not triggered the moment the tea entered the mouth, so there should be nothing wrong with this bowl of tea.

"Already in the war? Well..."

Lao Li frowned slightly, and the five fingers holding the folding fan moved quietly, and then he didn't dwell on this issue any further.

I don’t know how he judged the authenticity. Ye Qing, who was sitting opposite him, couldn’t help feeling guilty.

Especially when it comes to issues like this involving himself, Ye Qing can make up lies fluently and at least he doesn't have to worry about being discovered.

Lao Li even took out a palm-sized star chart, and after calculating on it several times, he still frowned.

Obviously he couldn't figure out anything useful, but Ye Qing, who was sitting opposite him, was terrified.

God knows what kind of mechanism Huanmeng has designed. At least in her opinion, stargazing is like a built-in query system that can also find out personal detailed information.

"Forget it, it's your turn to ask, Master Qing, but this should be the last question."

Chapter 50: Fate is Decided

Although Ye Qing wanted to ask directly why, the voice that suddenly came back from the team channel startled her.

"Sister Ye Qing, the Black Crow Gang has begun to take action!"

At this moment, Zhao Xin, who was in charge of surveillance, had already hidden in the house. Looking at the Black Crow Gang members who were constantly walking out around him, he had already sent the information he had taken to the team channel.

Since Zhao Xin did not see the situation in the dark room, she had no idea about the sudden march.

And the direction of this group of people's movement even included the house they had stayed in!

The moment the message was sent, Zhao Manying had already secretly left with Miss Yun and Lin Jue, naturally giving no chance for the Black Crow Gang to find them.

Although Lao Li didn't know the existence of the team channel, he noticed the momentary shift in Ye Qing's eyes and he obviously realized something.

"It seems that Lord Qing already knows what happened without me saying anything."

Ye Qing did not deny it, but just picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.

She had clearly agreed to take it when she was there, but she needed some time to think about it. Could it be that Dick had misjudged the matter because of his actions?

This was really unexpected. In Ye Qing's original plan, even if there was a misjudgment, Dick would not act immediately. At least he would find out the situation first.

It seems that I didn't think it through carefully enough. At least I didn't take the "statue" factor into consideration.

"Isn't it a bit too hasty for the Black Crow Gang to take action so soon?"

In response to Ye Qing's words, Lao Li shrugged without comment.

"Perhaps cutting the Gordian knot is a good approach?"

Since there is still one question left, Ye Qing also has to think carefully about what to ask.

Today, the Eastern Continent is filled with existences that they are not aware of, not to mention that many forces have begun to target these "outsiders".

There is still at least a week and a half before the end of the negotiation mission, and Ye Qing doesn't know what the outcome will be if the mission fails.

Miss Yun's side obviously also has a long-term plan. The ancient survivors who have traveled overseas for thousands of years, plus the reward she can offer, the difficulty of the task is bound to be difficult.

So what is the most important thing right now?

Just when Ye Qing was hesitating, Lao Li, who was sitting opposite her, spoke.

"Since Lord Qing can't make up his mind, why don't I tell you and your companions a fortune?"

Ye Qing was about to ask about the word "companion" when he immediately reacted and controlled himself.

But looking at the smiling face of Lao Li opposite him, even if he was not trying to trick him, he should have found out through other means.

This isn't surprising. Strictly speaking, Manying and her companions had friction with Lao Li's men when they entered the city. It would be strange if they couldn't get any information.

"Then there is Mr. Lowry."

Ye Qing sighed. Since he didn't have any good ideas for the time being, he decided to let the "advanced" AI tell his fortune.

Having said that, this so-called scientific fortune-telling probably existed in the 1980s, 1990s, but it was mostly a scam at that time.

Recalling those interesting events of the last century, Ye Qing felt as if everything was still before his eyes.

"Well, let's start with your friends..."

Mr. Li fiddled with the star plate in his hand, watching the changes in it, and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corners of his mouth.

His calculation is really strange. Even the "magic fortune teller" who swindles people on the street knows that he should go straight to the point and calculate the money for the customer in front of him. Why does he start with others first?

Is it to whet your appetite?

Even so, Ye Qing would not listen to and believe everything Mr. Li said.

Soon, the star plate in Mr. Li's hand stopped moving. Looking at the scene on it, he began to explain to Ye Qing with great interest.

"Among the two sisters who followed you, the elder sister is the most righteous, like the Big Dipper in the sky..."

"Stop, stop, stop. There's no need to talk about complicated things. Just tell me the results."

Seeing that Mr. Li was about to give a long speech, Ye Qing suddenly felt a little numb.

It's obviously a time of high pressure, yet you're still talking nonsense here. I don't know whose time is of the essence.
