Chapter 48
After Ye Wangxing said this, the blush on the Ghost Emperor's face immediately disappeared, and his expression changed and he spoke with some disdain.
"I just didn't expect that after giving you a chance to please me, you would actually take it too far. How can you, a human, be so bold and shameless?"
These words were in line with his disdainful expression, but Ye Wangxing looked at the handsome man with a high nose and deep eyes beside him with an expressionless face.
"Then can you let go of my shoulder? I'm afraid my shamelessness will pollute your eyes."
Watching the Ghost Emperor on the stage, calling him shameless while hugging Vice President Ding:
——She was now really glad that she had just moved the microphone away.
Otherwise, she couldn't imagine how awkward the situation would be if the people in the audience heard what she had just said.
But the Ghost Emperor did not control the volume, and the people sitting in the first row still heard it.
This also means that from Vice President Ding's perspective, he can count three people who want to rush up.
Not to mention Master Li, who is Ye Wangxing's master. From the very beginning, he looked at the Ghost Emperor Xie Yu on the stage with a ferocious expression as if he was looking at a yellow-haired man.
Although Lu Shi did not hold any magic spells, it seemed from the talisman in his hand that he also wanted to rush forward.
However, it seemed that because of what Ye Wangxing had said to this person before, he didn't dare to rush up at all.
Even the young boy who was rescued by Ye Wangxing trembled as he clutched the small peach wood sword in his sleeve.
Fortunately, the Ghost Emperor did not cause any more trouble afterwards, which allowed Vice President Ding to temporarily put her mind at ease. She didn't have to worry about Ye Wangxing while also having to hold them down.
However, after the meeting was over and everyone left the room except for them, this demon finally started to act.
The first one was Lu Shi, who looked at Ye Wangxing calmly but with sadness. However, this time, Ye Wangxing didn't know why he ignored his friend. Instead, he pretended to turn his head away casually and didn't look at him.
"Is this an attempt to save his friend..."
Vice President Ding thought that if Ye Wangxing had this idea, he was wrong.
——Because even if he turned his head away, there would be someone on the other side who would hang directly on Ye Wangxing's arm.
Yu Yi rushed over. Although she was only half a head shorter than Ye Wangxing, she looked quite like a little bird.
He raised his head, with an expression that said 'I'm so weak', and asked worriedly, "Brother Ye, are you okay? Is the matter completely resolved now? You're out of danger, right?"
Ye Wangxing looked at Yu Yi and spoke more gently.
"Ah, it's settled, I guess."
Yu Yi was obviously relieved, and said to Ye Wangxing with a gentle smile: "That's great, what happened before scared me to death. Brother Ye, such a good person must not be in danger."
Ye Wangxing scratched his head a little embarrassedly after being praised by Yu Yi, and whispered, "I'm not a very good person..."
Then, just as he said this, he saw the young boy was about to refute angrily, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, while Vice President Ding is here, I'll register your identity now. Then we can go to the public security system to find your family."
"I told you when I rescued you that I would help you find your family. Now is the time to fulfill my promise!"
The handsome boy smiled proudly and touched the boy's head in front of him with a very reliable look.
A blush gradually appeared on the boy's face, and his eyes were full of Ye Wangxing's shadow.
Vice President Ding looked at the young boy opposite him with eyes full of infatuation and sighed silently.
Alas, invisible seduction is the most deadly...
However, Vice President Ding still helped. After all, compared to the Ghost Emperor who could start a killing spree at any time and anywhere, and the very abnormal Lu Shi beside Ye Wangxing, this young boy, although he had means to protect himself, was barely a normal person.
Helping someone is also a good deed.
After Vice President Ding registered their information and arranged accommodation for them, he walked towards the office.
but……
Ye Wangxing’s psychological problems need to be taken seriously. What happened today has really ruined this child’s future.
Especially since he, a genius with a bright future, was forced to be tied to the Ghost Emperor, and he was not one of those people from the Zhou family. It would be strange if Ye Wangxing really accepted it completely.
Vice President Ding thought about it and turned around to call Master Li, and after a long call, Master Li's distant voice sounded from the other end of the phone.
"...You want me to give my apprentice some psychological guidance and help him accept this reality?"
Li Guanzhu's voice of disbelief came from the other end of the phone.
"No, Mr. Ding, I still haven't accepted it. I have such a good disciple, such a perfect and talented disciple, but he was bound by the Ghost Emperor. He even did it in front of me, his master. I feel wronged!"
Li Guanzhu sounded quite aggrieved on the other end of the phone.
"You feel wronged, and so do I. Our entire association feels wronged. But Master Li, you have to understand that your apprentice feels even more wronged than you. He's the one who bears the brunt of it all. He's only 22, still young. If you get too hung up on this..."
Vice President Ding knew exactly where Li Guanzhu's weakness was, and he was able to grasp Li Guanzhu's hand with just a few words. He also informed Li Guanzhu of the task he was going to give to Ye Wangxing and asked him to talk to Ye Wangxing.
It was obvious that there was something wrong with the task handed to Ye Wangxing at this time.
However, Master Li finally accepted it with a wry smile. After all, Vice President Ding also made a promise. Even if the mission failed this time, or even if the mission did not progress at all, it would not cause any hidden dangers to Ye Wangxing's resume.
This means that even if Ye Wangxing just hangs around the door and comes back, he can still get the mission fee for free.
Vice President Ding finally breathed a sigh of relief, put the phone back in its place, and walked to the window of his office.
There were so many things going on today that she was a bit overwhelmed. She still had to deal with the aftermath of the Ghost Emperor incident, and the association's workload had recently skyrocketed. It was almost May or June, and all sorts of things needed to be arranged...
When Vice President Ding thought about the many things that would happen later, he wanted to quit, but in the end he closed his eyes and sighed.
Alas, she can’t quit her current position just because she wants to. Those old antiques won’t let her go.
However, just when Vice President Ding opened his eyes and was about to return to his workstation, he found that there was suddenly one more person in the small garden below.
Isn't that Lu Shi standing next to Ye Wangxing? What is he doing there?
Vice President Ding was thinking with some doubts, but he found that Lu Shi's expression was completely different from that in front of Ye Wangxing.
——Vice President Ding swore with her eyes that had always been imbued with spiritual energy and had a vision of 2.0 or even 3.0 that she was definitely not mistaken.
If Lu Shi's expression in front of Ye Wangxing was that of a pitiful big cat that was about to throw a tantrum at any time, then his expression now was like a feline killer who had discovered his prey.
He was talking to the person on the other end of the phone with headphones. Vice President Ding narrowed his eyes, turned around and quickly asked the people in the network department to call up the background of the signal base station.
This was the only time the old-timers in the association agreed to cooperate with the authorities on a project.
There are also many magic arrays in this signal base station, which are used to monitor who is using their signal tower. Moreover, this magic array can just cover the entire religious association, thus ensuring safety.
but……
There was no access signal base station displayed at Lu Shi's location.
This means that either Lu Shi did not make another call, or Lu Shi was not using the signal tower here.
—Who is he contacting on the satellite phone?
Vice President Ding frowned fiercely and forcibly suppressed the urge to capture Lu Shi.
The more times like this, the more they cannot alert the enemy. They have to find out why Lu Shi is with Ye Wangxing and whether he will do anything bad to the association.
Coincidentally, at this time, Master Li was also asking Ye Wangxing questions about Lu Shi.
The boy, who looked like a little Tusong, suddenly jumped up from his seat and cried out for justice in front of his master.
"——Master, Lu Shi and I are really just father and son! God knows why Lu Shi suddenly came up with this child marriage talk at that time!"
When Ye Wangxing jumped up, Master Li subconsciously pushed him down to his seat and put his fingers in front of his mouth to make him quiet down.
"You finally managed to calm that guy down, but you really want him to come in and see you."
Master Li said in a low voice.
Ye Wangxing immediately sat down in his seat with his head drooped.
Master Li looked at it and sighed.
Just now he wanted to talk to Ye Wangxing, but the Ghost Emperor seemed to have no idol baggage at all, and floated over like an ordinary female ghost.
Fortunately, after being yelled at by Ye Wangxing, he stayed seated outside the door obediently.
Li Guanzhu, who watched the entire process, said: ...
Although this man's half-smile and the black aura around him made him look formidable, and just glancing at him would make Master Li break out in a cold sweat - but why did Master Li always feel that his arrogance was suppressed by his own disciple?
"Master, I really didn't play with other people's feelings..."
Ye Wangxing's words brought Master Li back to his senses, and after hearing his apprentice's words, he felt relieved.
It seems that this is just wishful thinking on the part of those people. As for his apprentice himself...
Putting aside the question of whether it is straight or not, his apprentice himself has not yet figured it out. No matter how hard those people try, it will be in vain.
As long as his apprentice himself does not play with other people's feelings, these relationships will be much easier to handle.
Thinking of this, Master Li felt much more relaxed. He patted Ye Wangxing's shoulder soothingly and said.
"Good disciple, I know you are not that kind of person. I just want to confirm that you really don't have that kind of relationship with them."
Ye Wangxing said aggrievedly, "How could it be related? Dalu was a straight man before today. Who knew he would suddenly come up with this talk about child marriages? Those who knew him thought he was trying to save me, while those who didn't thought he was going to sue me for bigamy."
Master Li also patiently guided his little disciple and finally figured out the whole picture of the matter from his little disciple's perspective.
As for the Ghost Emperor, his little disciple still doesn't know why the Ghost Emperor suddenly signed a heart-to-heart contract with him. He doesn't even know why the Ghost Emperor said what he said before.
However, he agreed with the speculation about past and present lives.
Yu Yi's explanation was much easier. The child simply saw his benefactor's friend planning to use some kind of child marriage to save his benefactor. He also slapped his forehead and said what the third wife said.
"Yu Yi is just trying to repay a favor, not really having any feelings towards me. Master, please don't treat him as an enemy."
Ye Wangxing said seriously, "Don't use any magic to monitor or monitor him. He's just an ordinary person and will be far away from our world. Don't scare the child into a psychological trauma."
Recalling Yu Yi's series of performances at the scene, Master Li said: ...
Disciple, I really cannot agree with you on this point.
Based on your master's many years of experience in the martial arts world, he always feels that the boy is not a good person.
However, Master Li did not say it out loud. After all, his disciple was an upright person, so he naturally liked to think the best of others.
——Anyway, even if that kid can’t find his family, Master Li will have to get rid of him by holding Vice President Ding’s arms and begging for funding.
"As for Lu Shi..."
Ye Wangxing's tone was barely perceptible when he mentioned Lu Shishi. He turned his head away and said, "We've known each other since childhood. How could I not know what that guy is up to? The moment he opens his mouth, I know what he's going to say next."
"How could I not know that his actions at that time were to save me?"
Looking at Ye Wangxing's appearance, although Master Li still felt that something was wrong, he still let his apprentice go.
After all, his disciple has never lied, and the magic weapon just now did not work, which means that his disciple was telling the truth and had no guilty conscience.
This also made Master Li breathe a sigh of relief. He comforted his little disciple who was circling around him in the room again, and then began to talk about the next task that would be handed over to him.
"...Let me go to the old execution ground in Lihua District and deal with the evil spirits there?"
Ye Wangxing frowned as he looked at the spot and said in surprise.
"I have Xie Yu with me right now. Are the higher-ups so confident in letting me take him along?"
What's the difference between this and walking around with a nuclear warhead?
No, a nuclear warhead can also be used as a bulletproof device. It cannot explode without a rigorous triggering device. That must be nitroglycerin.
——God knows how tiny a collision would cause it to explode.
Upon hearing his disciple's doubts, Master Li joined in the rant, "Who says it's not true? But you also know that those old-fashioned ideas of the higher-ups are truly out of their minds. Even at this moment, they're still thinking of testing the Ghost Emperor."
"Don't try too hard. Just remember this: you're going there just to slack off. If the Ghost Emperor asks, just say this mission is just to test him..."
Master Li kept on rambling on and on about a lot of things, and he was really worried.
The boy in front of him also listened to his master's words seriously, nodding when necessary and shaking his head when necessary, which made Master Li Guan feel even softer.
What a wonderful disciple he is! Nowadays, there are more and more disciples with unique personalities. He is probably the only one in the entire religious association who has such a well-behaved, obedient and trouble-making disciple.
——Unfortunately, he was targeted by a real ghost.
Master Li felt uncomfortable no matter how he thought about it, and thought with regret on his face.
He was about to leave the room when Ye Wangxing looked out the window and suddenly asked.
"Master, do you think... would someone take over the body of an ordinary person just to obtain the secrets of a religious association?"
Ye Wangxing's voice was unusually cold, and Master Li also felt that something was wrong with his disciple, but he temporarily put it in his heart and said.
"It's indeed possible. Something like this has actually happened in the association before. It seems to have been done by a member of the Zhou family who was expelled from the Zhou family. Many ordinary people suffered that time. The entire association was completely replaced, and dozens of tombstones were erected..."
Speaking of that incident, Master Li's voice also dropped, but then he rubbed his face and asked, "Disciple, why are you asking this?"
"Master, I'm fine. I'm just a little curious. I've dealt with Master Zhou Tianning before, so I wanted to ask."
However, Master Li clearly saw Ye Wangxing looking at someone outside the window, but he did not expose him. He just silently included that person in the observation list.
That person... seemed to be the good friend that his apprentice had just rescued.
Who is he talking to?
"Boss, how long are you going to spend with your childhood friend, the Heavenly Master? It's almost as long as spending time with your girlfriend! We've been so busy lately. Next month will be May or June, and cases are rising across the country. You're going on annual leave now. Are you waiting to come back and collect our bodies, Boss?"
Guo Sheng yelled to the boss on the other end of the phone like he was mourning.
The man on the other end of the phone just said with a smile: "If you really feel that this job is tiring, I will report to the previous department and transfer you off the front line."
"Boss, I was wrong. I shouldn't have complained, Boss Lu."
Guo Sheng immediately slid to his knees.
Fortunately, Lu Shi on the other end of the phone was just joking, and then he said, "Okay, stop wailing, I'll probably be back the day after tomorrow."
Guo Sheng and his colleagues were about to cheer when they heard the news, but Lu Shi on the other end of the phone stopped them in time.
"Don't be too happy just yet. Just because I go back the day after tomorrow doesn't mean I'll start working the day after tomorrow."
Guo Sheng looked at the task forms that had piled up high in front of him and asked tremblingly, "Boss Lu, what do you mean by that..."
"There will be a mission tomorrow at the old execution ground in Lihua District."
After listening to Lu Shi's words, Guo Sheng immediately searched the computer, but only found a task that had been completed.
"It seems that there is only one completed task on the boss' side."
"Yes, it's a task that has already been solved, but who says there can't be tricks involved?"
Lu Shi said in a cold voice.
"Ye Wangxing will also be there tomorrow. The Religious Association has already approved his mission application. The Ghost Emperor beside him will also be there. Remember to gather intelligence to prevent any trouble from the Ghost Emperor."
Guo Sheng immediately understood the importance of this matter, and his expression became serious. They had received the news that a Ghost Emperor suddenly appeared next to Boss Lu's childhood friend and had not left.
Although the specific details of the matter are unknown, the birth of a Ghost Emperor is enough to sound the alarm for all relevant departments.
——Besides, anything that could make Lu Shi, a smiling tiger, quiet down must be very big.
"And if I'm not mistaken, there should be more than one group of them there tomorrow. Please remember to be well prepared for safety measures. The situation may not be as optimistic as we think."
Lu Shi hung up the phone after he finished speaking, and Guo Sheng on the other end of the phone immediately gave the order and set up surveillance on the ancient execution ground over there in advance.
And a day later, Guo Sheng personally led the team to support the battle.
Behind him were all kinds of experimental weapons that they had developed during this period, waiting to be used.
The soldiers from the relevant departments behind him also had very serious expressions. It depended on them whether they could use this incident to shake up the position of the religious association.
The government has been completely suppressed by religious associations in recent years, especially because of some historical reasons, the government also owes some debts to the heavenly masters of the religious associations.
Even though their status has begun to be recognized in recent years, they still dare not trust the authorities wholeheartedly.
The official finally came up with a good seedling like Lu Shi, so naturally they would provide the resources and the people.
However, what they didn't expect was that their boss Lu went home to visit his relatives, and within a month, his childhood friend became a Taoist priest, and was also a disciple of Li Guanzhu, a very influential person in the religious association.
His talent is also amazing, which makes the officials a little regretful. Why didn’t they investigate such a good seedling like Ye Wangxing?
The entire relevant department also knew that Minister Lu had a childhood friend who was so talented that his superiors were jealous of him and encouraged him to change jobs every day.
For this reason, they were quite curious about this person, especially since the religious association, in their view, had a status similar to that of feudal remnants.
While waiting in the car, Guo Sheng's colleague yawned and asked curiously.
"...But then again, something seemed to have happened at the Religious Association yesterday. The entire religious association was under martial law, and Minister Lu had to use a satellite phone to contact us. What exactly happened yesterday?"
A colleague asked curiously.
Guo Sheng was actually just as curious. After all, after he finished talking to his boss on the phone yesterday, he immediately started to set up the scene and had no time to be curious at all.
At this time, Tian Li, who was in charge of the report, came in with a stack of reports. Her expression was blank, which startled Guo Sheng.
"Hey, Auntie Tian, why are you still here? Didn't I tell you to go home and get some rest? You're almost retired, so why are you still working with a bunch of night owls like us?"
However, when Auntie Tian came to her senses, she waved her hand and said, "How could I compete with you young people? I went home at 8 o'clock last night and took a nap. I didn't come here until this morning."
"Then I received a report from your Minister Lu early this morning about what happened yesterday. My heart had just been healed, and it gave me a scare."
Aunt Tian handed the report to their desk while holding her chest.
Guo Sheng and the others were a little confused at first, but after seeing the contents of the report, their hearts, which had been up all night, could no longer bear it, and they immediately fell down on the chair, holding their chests.
After a while, they finally recovered, but Aunt Tian also gave each of them a sip of ginseng water.
They looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock at the report.
It would be fine if the Ghost Emperor came out and made a covenant with humans, but why would it be that Ye Wangxing?
And why did Lu Shi use the four words "persistent" when describing the covenant between Ghost Emperor and Ye Wangxing?
——Why did he proudly write in the report that he used a child marriage to prevent the Ghost Emperor and Ye Wangxing from getting a marriage certificate?
Why did you behave so well after being scolded by your childhood friend?
After reading this report, Guo Sheng and his friends were like old people on the subway, thinking that Lu Shi was probably joking with them.
But when they finally caught up with Ye Wangxing who had come here, they immediately overturned all their previous ideas.
——Who is that strong little white flower who is trying to suppress her worry? Who is the person who can defeat a whole group of ghosts by herself, but still stands obediently in the magic circle set by Master Ye Tian?
Even the Ghost Emperor who had blown up several of their sensors couldn't stand it anymore!
The entire surveillance car was in shock.
Even the shadows at the entrance to the old execution ground seemed to shrink in shock.
Zhou Tianning, who was standing at the gate of the execution ground with a group of people following behind him, was also in disbelief.
He looked at Ye Wangxing who was comforting the ordinary person, and a question mark slowly appeared in his mind.
——Tang Fang, you bastard said you would keep this matter secret?
