“Divine Doctor Xue? Why is it you!”
The person in front of them had white hair and a beard. He was spirited, especially his wise eyes that carried a trace of confusion. It was difficult for them not to recognize him.
Who else could it be but Divine Doctor Xue?
Wang Wulang had grown up now, and many things from his childhood had surfaced in his mind. He could not help but think of how Divine Doctor Xue’s mind had been a little fuzzy when he came to their house previously. Now that he thought about it, was he deliberately pretending to be like that?
Instead, All Yu quickly shook her head. “No, you’re not Grandpa Divine Doctor.”
A few years ago, Divine Doctor Xue brought Liang Xue out to travel. Later on, when they met again, it was at the palace. However, Divine Doctor Xue was not too close to the Wang Family. He only had a few simple meals and did not interact much with them. They were relatively unfamiliar with each other.
Even so, they had a good impression of Divine Doctor Xue and had never treated him as a bad person.
Seeing that the two of them had different reactions, “Divine Doctor Xue” did not leave them hanging. He only snorted coldly. “Divine Doctor Xue? Heh, he’s really shameless!”
“Who exactly are you?” Wang Wulang also reacted. This person was probably not Divine Doctor Xue, but could there be such a similar person in the world?
Even their Liulang and Qilang, although they were also twins and looked the same, their families could tell them apart at a glance and wouldn’t be mistaken.
The person said, “Arrogant brat, you’re not worthy of knowing my name.”
In the past, Wang Wulang might have been angered, but what he had learned the most from the battlefield was how to anger the enemy.
He pushed Ah Yu behind him and took a step forward. He raised his chin and revealed an even more arrogant expression than the old man. “I, Wang Wulang, never kill nameless people. If you don’t say anything, you might not be able to leave a name on your tombstone.”
That person was already old, so these words undoubtedly poked his Achilles’ heel. He immediately sneered. “Kid, I originally saw that you were young and wanted to let you off. How dare you provoke me? Then hand over your lives!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man slapped at Wang Wulang, looking like he was about to kill him.
Unexpectedly, Chi Gou casually pushed his hand forward and sent a stream of energy over—
“Ah—Pfft!”
The old man immediately retracted his palm, his blood surging as he vomited a large mouthful of blood.
He sat back heavily and wiped his mouth indifferently. “Since you’re Xue Er’s friends, you’re also my friends. It’s not good to shout and fight. Someone, serve good tea to the esteemed guests.”
Ah Yu looked at Chi Gou.
Chi Gou said in a low voice, “I only used 40% of my strength.”
The main reason was that although that person’s aura was very strong, his internal force was actually unstable. As experts, they could tell at a glance how much strength they should use to return the favor.
Ah Yu :”…”
Wang Wulang:”…”
Meatbail: […What a flexible old man.]
The few of them really sat down to discuss. Xue Da was really a talent. When he realized that he couldn’t defeat the other party, he decisively included the other party in his circle of friends. He really told them everything he knew.
It was true that he was in charge of the underground forces in this area, but unlike City Lord Wan, he was mainly taking care of the people who had entered the water.
“There is a natural array formation under the water. It’s not very mysterious, but the more corpses piled up below, the stronger the murderous aura can be condensed. It’s more convenient to refine some medicine to rejuvenate our youth. Of course, it’ll also be easier for us to cultivate.”
Wang Wulang: “This doesn’t sound like an orthodox faction.”
Only Ah Yu found another key point. “In other words, others didn’t know, so they drank the river water that’s filled with corpses. You knew and deliberately used the water to refine medicine?”
Seeing Eldest Xue’s expression, she continued to ask, “Have you all eaten it? Why do 1 feel that you’re not younger than Grandpa Divine Doctor?”
Xue Da:”…”
Could he say that he only discovered it later?
He could only say, “Back then, I discovered the secret of the underground city, so I wanted to maintain justice. Unfortunately, I was young and impulsive at that time, and my skills were inferior. I thought that instead of dying, I might as well use my wits, so I joined them.”
“Yes, joining if you can’t win is very reasonable.” Wang Wulang gave Xue Da a thumbs up. “As expected of Divine Doctor Xue’s twin brother.”
Xue Da:”…” He felt even angrier.
In short, Xue Da was the person-in-charge of this area. His main goal was to prevent the secret of the underground city from being discovered. If someone discovered it, he would kill them. If he couldn’t kill them, he would let the other party join. Or, he would lie and trick them.
After so many years, they had really never encountered a tough person like Ah Yu and the others. After all, it was probably rare to encounter someone who could uncover the underground city in ten years. Ordinary people would be corroded until their entire bodies ached when they entered the water ten meters deep. How could they continue to go down?
Only Ah Yu could get Chi Tu and the others to help with the props.
After living in this area for more than 30 years, Xue Da finally became the local boss. He lived a carefree life all day. Occasionally, someone of a higher rank would come here to ask for pills. He would happily send them over. He never took them himself.
The more they listened to him, the more unreliable they felt he was. How could he still work for such an unreliable organization for so many years?
Xue Da: “Food and accommodation are covered! The subordinates here are all paid by the headquarters. I have some myself, and the subordinates will also respect me. No one comes to disturb me. To be honest, I only work for a day or two every month. There’s no trouble with my family and friends, and no one from the higher-ups makes things difficult for me. Why should I leave?”
Chi Tu leaned over and whispered to Chi Gou, “His words make even me tempted.”
As secret guards, their remuneration was very high, but they were also very busy. They were always on standby 24 hours a day and didn’t even dare to spend too long in the toilet. They were afraid that the Young Master would encounter trouble during this period of time.
Moreover, because they were too busy, they couldn’t even spend the money they earned. They had saved it for nothing.
Their only hope was that they could take on simpler roles at the age of 35. They only needed to turn up to work, and there would be many days off.
At night, when King Xiaoyao returned after dealing with his matters, he realized that there was another person in the house. He was chatting happily with Xie Zhen. This person was surprisingly Xue Da.
When Xue Da saw King Xiaoyao, he said in confusion, “Eh, you’re the legendary King of Hell? You don’t seem like him. Your leg isn’t crippled—”
Before he could finish speaking, Xie Zhen covered his mouth, wishing someone could drag him away immediately.
Looking at King Xiaoyao again, his originally expressionless face became surprisingly calm.
King Xiaoyao: “You’re the first person to say the word ‘crippled’ in front of me.”
These words sounded like they wanted to silence him. Ah Yu hurriedly stood up and patted King Xiaoyao’s hand. “Uncle Ah Shu, don’t be anxious. Grandpa Xue has very important news to tell us. It’s about—Princess Ruan Ruan.”
Hearing Ruan Ruan’s name, King Xiaoyao really restrained his killing intent. Everyone in the room heaved a sigh of relief.
“Since All Yu has already called you Grandpa, it at least means that you can still live,” King Xiaoyao said. “Tell me, what do you know?”
Xue Da realized that King Xiaoyao’s martial strength might be higher than all the people present, so he did not leave them hanging. He hurriedly said, “I really know about that Princess Ruan Ruan you mentioned! About 12 or 13 years ago, or perhaps 11 or 12 years ago, I can’t remember clearly. A masked beautiful girl came here with a child. She was also talented and discovered the secret of the underground city. Our leader happened to be around, so he took her away with the child.”
“She discovered a secret. Instead of killing her directly, he took her away?”
Elder Xue: “At that time, I was just getting by. The higher-ups didn’t let me know, and I insisted on not asking around. This is my principle. However, I also vaguely heard something. They said that the beautiful girl was related to some prophecy. It’s basically about the person who obtains the world. I’ve heard it before, but it can’t be taken seriously.”
Although that was the case, there were naturally people who took it seriously.
[Kid, I’ve checked. He’s not lying.]
Everyone realized that while things became more and more complicated, it was easier to understand.
Ah Yu said, “We can follow this line of investigation and trace the prophecy back then.”
King Xiaoyao agreed with Ah Yu and began to send people to investigate the prophecies of the past few decades.
In the next few days, Ah Yu followed Meatball’s instructions and completed some small missions before finally unlocking the farming system.
Its body was fabricated into the image of a young man. It was sunk into the river. After Chi Tu fished it up, All Yu went to activate it.
The young man was about 16 years old and looked no different from a normal person, but he did not like to talk. Unless everyone asked him questions related to farming, he would tell them everything he knew.
The person who was fished out of the water revived on the spot, almost scaring Chi Tu’s soul out.
Ah Yu comforted Chi Tu perfunctorily and asked Zhong Tian to set up a stall in front of the Protectorate General’s Residence. He specially taught everyone about farming and distributed some grain seeds.
That’s right, the name of the farming system was Zhong Tian. Ah Yu had given it this name.
Ah Yu and Meatball were studying how to quickly improve the water quality of the river. It was not to the extent of resolving the problem once and for all, but it was still possible to treat the symptoms.
However, after studying it for a few days, the Nine Fates Calming Cauldron that All Yu had placed in the spatial pocket to measure disasters moved.
The Nine Fates Calming Cauldron was also the Nine Dragon Treasure Cauldron. It was the reward Ah Yu had obtained back then. In order to use it reasonably, Ah Yu entered the Astrology Divination Bureau and wanted to build a good foundation for the future, but there had been no movement.
[Kid, bad news.. There will be a great earthquake from 1,000 kilometers southeast!]
