After the meeting, Zhong Jiudao and Qin Jinwen returned to Yanluo's house. It was afternoon when they arrived home, and they had lunch with the other ninth-tier teams at the Ghost Hunting Bureau's canteen.
During lunch, [Throne] said he would quickly wipe out the demons in the capital and then support the other nine provinces.
While it might be hard to believe that other ninth-tier squads could quickly wipe out the Oni race, the Throne First Squad, with all its members at ninth tier, is absolutely trustworthy.
According to Yan Tu, the awakened ghosts are now concentrated in the cities and provinces where the ninth-tier squads are stationed, so they will not endanger the whole country. This gives the ghost hunters some breathing room so that they can try to kill all the awakened ghosts in the country within a month.
Wang Yi also instructed Zhong Jiudao that since Yan Luo was not present, if the Ninth Squad encountered an enemy they could not defeat, they should retreat immediately to ensure their own safety. They would come as quickly as possible, and if that was not possible, they should ask Shao Shenyun for help.
Shao Shenyun will probably lend a hand out of respect for Yan Luo, and the Ninth Squad also has Chi Miaomiao, the vice-captain, as a relative.
They might not necessarily help out of respect for Yan Luo, but they would definitely help out of respect for Chi Miaomiao. Shao Shenyun has gotten along very well with everyone in the family this week, and is gradually growing to like the girls in Yan Luo's family. She is slowly integrating into this big family.
When Xia Qianzhen saw Zhong Jiudao return, she, who had suffered a lot of trauma that morning, rushed into the arms of the man she loved most.
The two of them always leaned on each other and rarely separated. Even if they were separated for a short while, they would feel a kind of withdrawal discomfort.
Zhong Jiudao hugged Xia Qianzhen, gently stroking the girl's long purple hair, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
You seem different today.
Xia Qianzhen shook her head. She had concealed her cultivation level beforehand, so Zhong Jiudao couldn't detect it. He only felt that Xia Qianzhen was even more otherworldly today, as if she was shrouded in a hazy veil, becoming mysterious and elusive.
Zhong Jiudao had only ever felt this way with three people: Yan Luo, Shang Xinci, and Shao Shenyun. These three people always gave him a feeling of invincibility.
Three years ago, Zhong Jiudao still vividly remembers the mysterious and powerful feeling that the eighteen-year-old ninth-level ghost hunter Yan Luo exuded when he first met him.
Shang Xinci and Shao Shenyun's auras were subtle and not easily detected, but Zhong Jiudao had a natural sensitivity to small things, which was why he later became a policeman.
Xia Qianzhen knew Zhong Jiudao's trait, so she was very careful and attentive, afraid that he would notice something amiss.
"It's nothing, I just missed you so much. Sister Qing invited us to stay for dinner, shall we stay?"
Zhong Jiudao pinched Xia Qianzhen's cheek and said "okay" affectionately. He needed to inform Chi Miaomiao about the contents of the Ninth-Rank Meeting, as many things required her, as the vice-captain, to make decisions.
Suddenly, he felt an extremely sharp gaze filled with resentment. Xia Qianzhen had run down from upstairs. Zhong Jiudao looked up at the second-floor railing, where Tu Yier, with an innocent and adorable face, was standing and waving at them.
Zhong Jiudao waved at her with a grin and shamelessly said, "Yi'er, did you miss Uncle Gou today?"
Tu Yier smiled and nodded.
"Yes, I miss Uncle Dog so much."
I don’t know when it started, but because Yan Luo and the others always called him “dogdog,” one day Tu Yi’er suddenly blurted out “Uncle Dog,” and from then on, Zhong Jiudao was called “Uncle Dog” by Tu Yi’er.
Zhong Jiudao was quite pleased with himself, feeling incredibly cool. However, he found it a bit strange; he had always been very confident in his keen intuition, firmly believing he couldn't be wrong.
But when I looked up just now, there was only a Tu Yi'er there. It couldn't be Tu Yi'er, could it?
A small child couldn't possibly have that kind of look in their eyes.
Yun Zhiqi, inside Tu Yier's body, was seething with anger. If Xia Qian hadn't begged her not to make things difficult for Zhong Jiudao, Zhong Jiudao would have already been beheaded the moment he leaked his aura.
Yun Zhiqi was furious. Watching Xia Qianzhen and Zhong Jiudao being all lovey-dovey below, she felt a heavy weight on her head. Her green hat had grown bigger. Yun Zhiqi touched her nose and found that it had grown bigger and redder. Underneath the hat was a red and blue afro.
If Coco the Great were at home at this time, he would play the familiar clown background music for Cloud's Cry, adding a touch of subtle atmosphere to the already tense situation.
Around 4 PM, Chi Miaomiao rushed home after get off work, hugged Tu Yier to replenish her energy for the day, and then the teachers took a nap after the children had taken their afternoon nap.
Chi Miaomiao couldn't sleep at all because she couldn't hold Tu Yi'er to sleep, and she desperately needed to replenish a lot of Yi'er's energy.
Seeing Zhong Jiudao squatting in a corner on the first floor, playing with a cat, with a disdainful little bird staring at him, Chi Miaomiao greeted him.
When Zhong Jiudao heard Chi Miaomiao call his name, he patted Shiyue's head and then took the opportunity to stroke Sanyue's soft and bright feathers before turning around and sitting down on the sofa on the first floor with Chi Miaomiao.
Tu Yier got down from Chi Miaomiao's arms and ran to the cat bed to play with March and October.
Zhong Jiudao earnestly explained the contents of the meeting to Chi Miaomiao. Chi Miaomiao frowned, saying that it didn't matter what kind of enemy appeared, the main thing was that Yanluo was not here.
Shao Shenyun was going on a long trip, but fortunately, she had two reliable demon queens at home, so Chi Miaomiao wasn't too worried about it.
Upon hearing the word "ghost clan," Shao Shenyun, Bai Ningbing, and Shang Xinci, who all had sharp ears upstairs, appeared on the sofa on the first floor and sat around Chi Miaomiao.
After Zhong Jiudao explained it again, Bai Ningbing and Shang Xinci immediately said that they should let them know if they needed any help.
Both humans and demons harbor strong hostility towards the ghost race. This disgusting race has never done anything good since ancient times, and many of their conspiracies have caused immense suffering to both humans and demons.
Leaving aside Shao Shenyun, just consider Shang Xinci and Bai Ningbing. They couldn't wait for the opportunity to fight the Ghost Clan, as both of them wanted to vent their anger for their compatriots who had suffered in the past.
Shao Shenyun was completely stunned. She had killed so many people and spread her perception throughout the entire human realm. How did these disgusting guys manage to evade her detection?
She didn't think too much about it. At worst, she could just kill them again. If they displeased her, Shao Shenyun might just wipe out the Ghost Realm that still existed.
When dealing with the ghosts in the human realm, Shao Shenyun had a premonition that she was about to enter a period of weakness. Therefore, she could only choose to protect the safety of the human realm by cutting off the passage, rather than annihilating the ghost realm to avenge her compatriots.
After thoroughly exploring the human realm, Shao Shenyun, who had entered a period of weakness, disappeared from the human realm without any warning.
Shao Shenyun is now very glad that she made the right choice. Even if the Ghost Realm is destroyed, there are still the Demon Realm and the Immortal Realm behind it, all of which are eyeing the Human Realm and the Demon Realm with covetous eyes.
