Chapter 17 News



In the early morning, everything was quiet. A day's plan begins in the morning. Lin Qing stretched and came to Mengpo Milk Tea Shop early, ready to start her holiday work.

Although it was a part-time job, the milk tea shop was short-staffed. Lin Qing would come to help out during every holiday to earn some living expenses for her study abroad.

But this time, after Lin Qing opened the door, she saw Li Jing sitting on the sofa calmly drinking coffee. She was a little surprised, but she still said repeatedly: "Good morning, boss."

"You're here so early."

Li Jing looked up at the time and was slightly surprised: "It seems that the salary I offered you is still too low. I will increase it by 500 per day in the future."

Li Jing doesn't care much about money. His current assets are estimated to be over 10 million... Of course, it's Japanese currency.

For him, this milk tea shop is just a means to hide his identity. Who would have thought that the honorary Onmyoji of the Neon Government, Kyogoku Qiong, is actually the owner of a milk tea shop?

"Thank you, boss."

Lin Qing didn't know what Li Jing was thinking. A pay raise was something to be happy about. "Boss, are you here because of the news?"

"About the news?"

Li Jing frowned. He was busy for a long time yesterday with the operations on the Ghost Pen and the black jade pendant and didn't pay attention to any news at all.

Seeing that Li Jing looked like he knew nothing, Lin Qing immediately spoke up for Li Jing, "This morning's news said that a murderer had appeared in Shinjuku. His last name seemed to be Furuta, and he lived near us. It was so scary."

Li Jing was a little curious. It seemed that this was different from what he knew, so he immediately said, "Come on, tell me in detail."

"This high school student named Furuta seemed to have a personality change after his sister committed suicide. He killed his parents and pretended nothing happened. He went to Mount Fuji with his classmates and killed several classmates on Mount Fuji. He has been shot dead by the Metropolitan Police Department."

Lin Qing finished reporting the news in one breath, and at the same time couldn't help but sigh: "A high school student actually killed so many people, it's really terrible... And it happened in our Shinjuku District, which is even more terrible."

"Is this a news report?" Li Jing asked.

Lin Qing nodded vigorously, put on her apron and started to prepare milk tea. "Yes, many people in Shinjuku know about this news, and some people are discussing the mental health education of contemporary Japanese high school students online."

After that, Lin Qing asked curiously, "What's wrong, boss?"

"It's okay, go ahead and do your work."

Li Jing waved his hands, seemingly showing no special expression. He just sat on the chair and continued to drink the unfinished cup of coffee.

"It seems that the Japanese government does not want to disclose the matter of ghosts and demons to the people of Sakura City."

Li Jing thought to himself: "But this is also true. If it really becomes known to everyone, the whole city of Ying will probably be in chaos."

During this night, in addition to becoming proficient in the operation of the black jade pendant and the ghost pen, Li Jing also felt the level of spiritual energy in the Shinjuku area.

The current level of spiritual energy is far from the level before Li Jing was reborn. The current level of spiritual energy can only give the earth extraordinary powers.

To achieve the level described in the myth is ten thousand times more difficult than reviving the spiritual energy before rebirth.

However, in the aura of Neon's revival, Li Jing also sensed a very strong yin element.

As time goes by, there will be more and more ghosts in Japan, and they will gradually become ghosts that bring disaster to the locals. By chance, there may be a night parade of a hundred ghosts.

However, this is different from the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons in the previous life.

The main participants in the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons in Li Jing's previous life were all mountain ghosts and evil gods in the Neon Mountains. There were very few acquired evil creatures like Asada the Great God.

However, this would be quite beneficial to Li Jing.

The black jade pendant can absorb ghost energy and negative energy. As long as there are ghosts born in Yingdu, they will become Li Jing's experience babies and provide experience to Li Jing.

Ah, that’s not the case. After all, not all spirits can be called ghosts. Most spirits are actually just ghosts.

Those who are called ghosts are all powerful characters.

There are 23 districts in Sakura City, and there may be countless supernatural events in the future. Li Jing gave them a reason that the evil spirit of Mount Fuji was leaking, so the appearance of Kyogoku Qiong was not a problem.

Li Jing could completely take advantage of Kyogoku Qiong's opportunity to intervene in the entire Sakura City affair, and could also distort the direction of the Neon government's investigation.

A way to kill two birds with one stone.

Li Jing is currently practicing the seventh stage, which is the strongest period of the first stage and only one step away from the second stage.

Therefore, Li Jing needs to find a suitable target within Yingdu in the near future to avoid delaying his own practice.

The path of cultivation is too difficult. The so-called Phoenix Initial Realm and Qin Heart Realm are mostly ancient names. If we follow the names in current novels, we can compare the Phoenix Initial Realm to the Qi Refining Stage and the Qin Heart Realm to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Of course, the realm in the opera novel is naturally different from the realm of Li Jing's practice. At least Feng Chu and Qin Xin are much more powerful than those in Qi Refining and Foundation Building.

After reading it, Li Jing slowly raised his head and saw that the other Japanese people who came to work in the store were almost all there, and they did not interfere too much in the operation of the milk tea shop.

He recruited those Japanese people at random, and the ones who really managed things were his own people. He was only responsible for paying the money.

As the sky gradually cleared up and more customers began to come to the store, Li Jing casually turned on the TV in the store and watched the news.

His purpose of watching the news was not just to see what happened to the Furuta family, but to read international news.

Is it possible that signs of spiritual revival are still appearing in other places, and something just went wrong in Neon?

Sadly, the news was no different from the past, with the same usual tone and nothing remarkable.

"never mind."

Li Jing shook his head, stood up, and walked out of the milk tea shop amid compliments from the shop assistants.

He pretended nothing had happened and walked towards the house he had bought nearby. After entering the house, he transformed into the appearance of Kyogoku Qiong.

Next, as planned, he would go find some ghosts to purify and absorb, so as to break through the second Houqin state of mind as soon as possible, and have a basic idea of self-defense.

After all, when the second stage comes, it exceeds the normal limit, the complexion returns to the youthful look, the body is happy and the mind is at peace, and the spiritual vision is clear.

"Hmm? The sudden resentment isn't that strong, so it's worth a look."

Kyogoku Qiong stood near the rooftop of a high-rise building, gazing at the bustling Shinjuku district, with a slight smile on his lips.

Originally he gained nothing, but not long ago, a surge of resentment coming out of the building attracted him.

The resentment is related to this building.

However, this building is inextricably linked to the local gangs in Shinjuku District.

The society is not an ordinary society, but a so-called violent group.
