He patted the seat next to him, gesturing for Li Ning to sit down first. "I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to come back to us, so I didn't think to leave you any information."

"I thought it was just a transaction between us, and that your Asura gave us the reward." Xie Wei took out the Asura Token and the cultivation technique.

The moment Li Ning saw the two items, her face flushed crimson. She wanted to say something but said nothing.

Xie Wei didn't notice this, and while putting the items away, he asked Li Ning, "So, did you pass the Saintess's test?"

Li Ning nodded, but seeing that Xie Wei seemed unconcerned about things on the dark web, she asked again, "Enemy, clues?"

"Hmm," Xie Wei knew who it was when he heard Li Ning mention the kill order on the dark web. "Just a clown. Don't worry, I'll handle it."

"What are you going to say next? If you do that, you haven't completed the mission," Xie Wei reminded the girl in front of him, looking at her who was worried about him, without considering his own situation.

The girl said only three words, "Follow you," but her tone was surprisingly firm.

"Ah!...Alright then," Xie Wei agreed after careful consideration.

The girl in front of him didn't care about herself, but Xie Wei had to consider her. If she returned without completing the mission, it would damage the reputation of the Underworld, and even the status of the Holy Maiden would be affected.

The only way to avoid being affected when Xie Wei returns is to deal with the person who issued the kill order.

"Then you can become my secretary at Qiyuan. I happen to need one," Xie Wei joked. As the saying goes, when there's work to be done, a secretary will do it; when there's nothing to do...

I don't know if the girl was unaware of that joke or what, but since she agreed, Xie Wei quickly offered to change her position, but the girl insisted on being his secretary, saying that she would be closer to Xie Wei and be able to protect him.

Xie Wei was speechless. Li Ning was only at the mid-stage of the Day After Tomorrow realm. If something happened, who knew who would protect whom? But in the end, he couldn't resist the girl's request and agreed to her request.

Xie Wei was surprised that the girl had brought a suitcase. It seemed that she had planned to stay with Xie Wei from the beginning. Xie Wei had no choice but to arrange a room for the girl.

"Xiao Wei is fast asleep right now. She's been tired these past few days, and she'll be very happy to find you here tomorrow." After saying that, she was about to leave the room to catch up on her sleep.

Just as she was about to step out of the room, she suddenly felt someone tugging at her clothes. Turning around, she saw that it was Li Ning who was tugging at her clothes.

"How did you get here?" Xie Wei asked, assuming the girl had some problem.

After a while, the girl, her face flushed, slowly spoke, "The token, keep it safe, don't lose it."

After hearing the girl's words, Xie Wei smiled, not paying much attention to her expression. "I understand. This is a very valuable item in your underworld, right? I won't lose it."

'After all, we'll need to use these things to ask for favors in the underworld,' Xie Wei thought to himself.

The girl didn't answer Xie Wei's question, but simply nodded, then went back into the room, pushed Xie Wei out, and closed the door.
