20demayo Chapter 74 Old Friend
Chapter 74 Old Friend
Just as Ling Yunxiao was imagining his next trip into the Misty Sky to face the enemy, and witnessing the spectacular scene of Yang Jian and Nezha charging forward simultaneously, with Wang Mian and Si Xiaonan providing support from the sidelines, Yang Jian looked at Ling Yunxiao with a complicated expression. A voice was clearly entering his ears through the communication talisman used to contact Nezha.
"Yang Jian! Take Ling Yunxiao to the Night Watchmen for a visit! Going to Kunlun Ruins isn't out of the question either, just don't let him linger in the Heavenly Court. There aren't many immortals who have returned to their positions in the Heavenly Court these days, and if he manages to take a few more away, your uncle will have a headache."
The Heavenly Venerable's words were anything but tactful. Yang Jian glanced at Ling Yunxiao before speaking after a long pause.
"Brother Ling, how about you come with me to say goodbye to my mother, and then we can go to the headquarters to report to them?"
"Hmm... I won't go to Kunlun Ruins. You can spend more time with Aunt Wang these next few days, and come find me with the captain and the others in a few days. I can find the headquarters myself, I'll go there now to report to you."
Ling Yunxiao's gaze shifted. He hadn't seen Nezha but had heard these words. He could roughly guess that he had been told to leave. He inwardly lamented that these people in Heaven were so ungrateful, completely forgetting that he was the one who had first set his sights on the God of War.
Yang Jian had no choice but to agree. After sending Ling Yunxiao away from Yaochi Realm, he went to Kunlun Ruins alone.
Ling Yunxiao stepped out of Kunlun Realm, his gaze sweeping over the void beneath his feet. For a moment, he wondered if he would die if he jumped down.
"Master, what are you going to do?"
Just as Ling Yunxiao was about to attempt suicide, Garuda King arrived in time and prevented Ling Yunxiao from doing so.
He pursed his lips helplessly, leaped onto Garuda King's back, and pointed in the direction of the capital.
"Let's go! I'll take you to see the most prosperous city of the human race."
An hour later, just as Garuda King approached the capital, several figures inside the city took to the air.
A golden phantom of a Buddha, a colossal Yama's palace, a giant blue bird...
"Gentlemen, it's me! I'm Ling Yunxiao. I'm returning to the capital to report for duty. This is my mount."
Ling Yunxiao quickly jumped onto Garuda King's head and waved to Ye Fan, Shao Pingge, and Zuo Qing.
"Come here yourself! This mount shouldn't go near the capital."
Shao Pingge shook his head with a wry smile. If Commander Ye hadn't said that Garuda seemed to have someone behind it, they would have been ready to launch a surface-to-air missile directly.
Ling Yunxiao scratched his head sheepishly, instructed Garuda King to land on the spot, and then slowly walked towards the capital. Fortunately, he hadn't gone too far when he encountered a small electric scooter.
"Going back to the capital? Do you want me to give you a ride?"
"Mr. Lu, it's so nice to meet you here."
Without hesitation, Ling Yunxiao jumped onto the electric scooter. The scooter started moving again, and the two exchanged a few pleasantries. Suddenly, Ling Yunxiao remembered something.
"Mr. Lu, how is Master Lu doing lately?"
"What can he do? He just goes around showing off his beat-up dragon chariot when he has nothing better to do!"
Lu Wuwei shrugged, his tone carrying a hint of complaint. Who would have thought that he would miss the chance to become a dragon knight just because he was an hour late?
“Mr. Lu, if I remember correctly, the Ancient God Church also has a Wind Vein Earth Dragon. Although it escaped when we were chasing Yiyu, it shouldn’t be difficult for Yiyu to find it.”
Ling Yunxiao pretended to ponder before speaking, and Lu Wuwei's eyes immediately lit up.
"Do you have business to attend to in the capital? Then I'll accompany you first. After we're done, we'll go see our old friend Yiyu together. Remember, this matter must not be known to the Master, otherwise he will definitely not give me a single dragon carriage, even if he wants to ride one of the two dragon carriages."
"Mr. Lu, if you replace this electric scooter with a wind-powered earth dragon, won't it affect your abilities?"
"Who said I was going to change? Can't I have the Wind Vein Earth Dragon drag me and my electric scooter forward? That way, it won't affect the speed or the accuracy! I'm a genius."
Lu Wuwei said with a smile, and Ling Yunxiao gave him a thumbs up, saying that the idea was indeed good.
The two quickly arrived at the headquarters. Lu Wuwei went to Ye Fan's office, while Ling Yunxiao was taken to his own office by Zuo Qing.
"Tell me! What have you gained this year amidst the fog? And what brings you back this time?"
Zuo Qing realized that Ling Yunxiao was the kind of person who wouldn't come to the headquarters without a reason. Even the dogs in the command headquarters wouldn't believe he was just there to report on work.
"…………"
Ling Yunxiao took a sip of coffee and recounted his group's gains over the past year, their experiences after returning to Daxia, and their actions. Upon hearing the end, Zuo Qing slammed his hand on the table and stood up.
"You're saying Yang Jian is now one of your junior members and you want headquarters to provide him with a set of armor? No way, why don't you just rob him? How could headquarters possibly have armor that only a God-level expert could use?"
I knew your return wouldn't be good, but you can't go too far, can you?"
Ling Yunxiao didn't speak. After finishing his coffee, he raised his eyes and stared at Zuo Qing silently.
"Look, I don't have any either! Where am I supposed to conjure one for you? You don't mean for me to go to the National Museum..."
Ling Yunxiao nodded without hesitation when he heard that Zuo Qingzhen had a clue. Putting him in a museum as a display piece is not as cost-effective as dressing him up in the armor! You have to understand that although he can heal, the strength Yang Jian can unleash while wearing the divine armor is worlds apart from when he doesn't wear it.
What museum?
Just then, Ye Fan pushed the door open and entered, and immediately saw Zuo Qing walking towards him with a look of surprise on her face.
"Yunxiao, you discuss this matter with Commander Ye. I have other things to attend to and must take my leave first."
Zuo Qing pushed open the door and ran, giving Ye Fan no chance to back out, even though he had already realized that nothing good was going to happen here. But before Ye Fan could escape, Ling Yunxiao had already grabbed his wrist enthusiastically and patiently repeated everything he had just said to Zuo Qing.
Ye Fan remained silent for a long time before finally raising his head and making a decision.
"Give me three days, and I'll have someone make a replica and send it over. Come to headquarters to pick it up in three days."
Ling Yunxiao smiled and nodded, then, as if remembering something, reached out and grabbed Ye Fan's wrist.
"Commander Ye, this is 30 years of lifespan. May you have boundless happiness and longevity!"
Our team will leave Daxia in a few days and return to the mist. It's hard to say when we'll be back next time.
However, Commander Ye, no matter what happens, you must never forget me. You must believe that with me here, there is always a chance to avert tragedy.
"Okay, I remember."
Ye Fan nodded casually, his only thought now being to get these debt collectors out of there as quickly as possible.
“Then I won’t bother you any longer. Mr. Lu and I are going to the fasting place to see our old friend, Yiyu.”
"go Go!"
Ye Fan waved his hand repeatedly, omitting even the most basic etiquette of trying to persuade him to stay.
