“I don’t know if Minister Wu mentioned it in the report, but a bear spirit came from the Northeast recently. It was from the Greater Khingan Range. When I scared the Demons’ Alliance, I mentioned that they should solve it by themselves, but an undocumented S-class animal being is undoubtedly a huge threat.” Li Xianyu said, “We can’t let it roam around the city at will. I suggest we eliminate it.”

The Lightning King sighed. “Li Xianyu, when did you become so strong?”

Li Xianyu was stunned. “Ah?”

Lightning King replied, “With your character, shouldn’t it be: the northeast is very dangerous. I want to go back to Shanghai. I will hand over the matter regarding the Demons’ Alliance and the bear spirit over to you.”

Lightning King’s words caused Li Xianyu fall into a deep thought. If he thought about it carefully, it was really what he would say. Why had the gentlemanly me become a reckless person?

A gentleman gravitated towards benefits and stayed away from harm, while a reckless person dived into trouble brainlessly.

Li Xianyu thought that he was a man who knew the current affairs well, as well as himself well. He would never try to force things. When it was time for him to retreat, he would retreat faster than anyone else.

He couldn’t help looking at his left arm. Was it because of Slime? Was it changing his character imperceptibly, or was it releasing his real character? It was highly possible that the characteristics of Slime was combined with his.

Li Xianyu was wary in his heart. Slight influence could be tolerated. In the future, when encountering events with great mood fluctuation, he swore to himself to remember to control his mood. This was to prevent Slime from capitalising.

“Hello, are you still listening?” Lightning King boomed.

“Yes.” A voice on the phone interrupted his train of thought.

“The bear spirit ran out of the Greater Khingan Range. Some time ago, it came out of the mountains and ate some people. It was the first time that he appeared in our vision. The company sent the God of Food to investigate the matter. According to his report, it came out because it had a fight with a tiger spirit and was injured. It just happened to be hungry, so it ate people.”

Lightning King continued, “His left paw has been chopped off by God of food; the ingredients have been sent back to the company. Next month, God of Food will come back to eat bear paws,” said Lightning King.

Li Xianyu said, “You should inform the God of Food about the bear’s reappearance.”

“He’s still in the Greater Khingan Range, preparing to add a tiger tail to his recipe next month,” Lightning King replied.

Li Xianyu was speechless. He fully knew this S-level employee’s tendencies for gluttony. The God of Food was not keen on power. His only hobby was eating. He liked to deal with cases pertaining to animals most, which meant that he could eat to his heart’s content. Occasionally, he could eat human demon descendants as well. He was a devil.

“Don’t belittle the Demons’ Alliance. It can stand its ground against the Wu family and Fengtian branch. Their foundation is still solid. These rats are very proficient in the way of survival in the sewer. It’s very difficult to eliminate them. On the contrary, letting them operate industries in human society and exposing them legitimately will make them easier to control. Apart from this chaotic period where leadership of the alliance is changing hands, the Demons’ Alliance actually behaves quite sensibly. At the very least, they manage the animals well. It would be better if someone surnamed Wu were more headstrong. Forget it. Let’s not mention him anymore.”

“I will ask the Fengtian branch to provide some help to deal with the bear spirit. Isn’t it good if both parties end up injured?”

“According to the description provided by the God of Food, the bear spirit has a violent temperament, but his series of acts in the Northeast deliberately avoid ordinary people and target the Demons’ Alliance deliberately.”

Li Xianyu frowned. “He doesn’t want to provoke Baoze. He covets the position of the alliance chief?”

Lightning King nodded in reply. “Either it covets the position of the alliance chief, or someone wants to target the Demons’ Alliance behind the scenes. The bear spirit is just a pawn. Of course, it’s just my guess.”

Li Xianyu asked, “Is it the Wu family?”

Lightning King replied, “You’re smart, young man. Seems that you are suitable for me to entrust heavy tasks to you. Okay, your task is coming. Go ahead, investigate this matter clearly, remember to investigate secretly, don’t do anything extra.”

Li Xianyu said, “Was I fooled by you? Okay, give me Battle Lady then.”

“Why do you think about her all day?” Lightning King muttered.

“None of your business.”

“OK. But remember not to provoke the Wu family. ”

Li Xianyu left the Fengtian branch and took a taxi back to his parents’ small county. His granduncle was buried yesterday. However, it was very awkward. The Li family flew all the way, but didn’t attend the funeral.

If the condition of his adoptive father worsened, it was a matter of life and death. Of course, his adoptive mother should stay in the hospital.

After Li Xianyu returned, his adoptive parents took him and his sister to the grave. His sister wore black jeans, a white shirt and tied her hair in a ball. In Shanghai market, these colours were suitable for a cemetery visit.

His mother’s eyes were red as his adoptive father’s face was solemn. Li Xianyu wanted to put on a sad expression, but when he looked at Ice Shard’s indifferent expression, he could not fake it. He learned from his adoptive father, and put on a solemn expression.

Li Xianyu often disliked Ice Shard’s terrible character on the inside. For a while, he wanted to find a similar type of ice-cold beauty as his girlfriend. Then, he would educate her accordingly, such as “forcing her to call him daddy and let her be on top”, to satisfy his evil fetishes. Later, he found that there were too few beauties of this type in reality. Occasionally, there were one or two such women, but their coldness was only aimed at the poor loser. In front of their tall, rich and handsome boyfriends, they would also cry out shyly: “Love you, hubby.”

After visiting the grave, his adoptive parents decided to go back to Shanghai. His adoptive mother didn’t trust in the quality of the hospital at the small county, so she was anxious to take her husband back to Shanghai, in order to find a big hospital to check his condition carefully. Also, the holidays were here.

Of course, Ice Shards arranged her own schedule. She had visited here for a tour and was expected to stay in the northeast for a while.

Li Xianyu thought about it further, unable to not worry for her. The northeast demon descendants community would usher in a period of chaos. His sister was not safe. On second thought, he probably over-thought things. After all, the chaos in the demon descendants’ community was behind the scenes. It was not a war, and would not affect the society.

“Li Xianyu, the holidays are here. You can have fun with your sister for a few days. Dad will give you money,” his adoptive father said.

When Li Xianyu came back, his adoptive father knocked his head. His skull didn’t hurt. His father’s own hand hurt for half a day.

“I know, Dad, you guys can go in peace.” Li Xianyu comforted his parents like this.

“You’re nothing but trouble,” said Ice Shards reluctantly.

On the way back to the hotel, she seemed to be in a good mood.

After he sent his parents to the airport, Li Xianyu checked into a room which was next to Ice Shards. He opened the ancient demon app, and sent a message in the group which read: “@King Kong @Lady Killer @Thunderbolt Battle Lady @Kato Eagle, what time in the morning are you guys arriving in Fengtian?”

King Kong: “To be honest, I don’t want to come. After learning my lessons from the virtual world, I’m afraid to form a team with Li Xianyu.”

Fire God: “It’s all superstition.”

Lady Killer: “Fire God, it’s not superstition. You know what happened in Sanliban Village, where the team was almost eliminated. Think about what happened to God of Apes again.”

Walking Piledriver: “It’s none of my business. Don’t pin the blame on me.”

He could not afford to have a small blemish in his record, not even a small one. When he became famous, it would become a real personal attack amongst the gossip.

Kato Eagle: “My aim this mission is just to come back alive.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady: “Guys, don’t make fun of him. It’s just teaching a few animals a lesson. There will be no danger.”

Lady Killer: “Battle Lady, where’s your brain? If it’s so simple, why do we need four senior employees? The people of Fengtian branch can just solve it.”

Walking Piledriver: “Well… In fact, Lightning King gave me a secret task in private.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady: “(゚゚Д゚)”

Walking Piledriver: “┐(-。ー;)┌”

This was really not my fault.

At this time, Tongtong sent an animated sticker of a beautiful female warrior with the words, “Blessing you on behalf of the moon”, followed by the words, “You guys must come back in peace!”

Kato Eagle: “…”

King Kong: “I want to ask for sick leave again.”

Lady Killer: “Game over.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady couldn’t help but send a “Crying while covering one’s face” emoji.

This mission was cursed by Li Xianyu, the trouble magnet, as well as Tongtong, the cursed loli.

Li Xianyu was about to rebut them as he heard knocking on the door. He got up and opened the door and found Ice Shards standing outside. She was in a bohemia dress and a blue T-shirt, covered with a white denim.

Ice Shard’s fashion sense was always spot-on. She could match her own clothes very well. It was basically forest and cold colors, which matched her temperament very well.

She stood in the doorway beautifully, like a lily blooming in the snow.

“Let’s go out for dinner.”

“There’s a noodle shop nearby, and the reviews are good,” she said.

Li Xianyu said, “Nah, I’m not hungry. Sister, I won’t be accompanying you. I have a friend who will come to Fengtian tomorrow. I’ll introduce a female friend to you. She also likes travelling. You guys can partner up.”

This was the reason why he asked Thunderbolt Battle Lady to participate in the mission. Li Xianyu had to stay in Liaoning for official matters. He was not able to travel with his sister. He promised his father just to reassure him.

He was afraid that the Demons’ Alliance would target his sister. After all, what he was going to do would offend the Demons’ Alliance. Although the other party may not have known that Ice Shards was in Liaoning, it was always right to be careful.

When Thunderbolt Battle Lady was here, he would discuss this matter with her. According to company regulations, he would hire her to be his elder sister’s bodyguard, paying her two points every day.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ice Shard’s expression suddenly sank. She stared at Li Xianyu coldly, and her voice was even colder: “Better for you not to go. It’s annoying to even see you.”

She turned around and left, as her skirt swayed.

“She’s angry?” Li Xianyu scratched his head.

If life was a sticker pack, Ice Shard’s internet connection would have been cut off when she was reincarnated. There was only time to download a cold face. Li Xianyu could detect his sister’s joy and anger from the subtle changes of her eyes and tone. That was the maximum he could go. Li Xianyu claimed to be very good with women. However, he was a little afraid of his sister. He didn’t understand why she got angry so easily. Given their relationship, it couldn’t have been that Ice Shards had wanted to travel together with him… This was definitely overthinking.

Women were unpredictable. Ice Shards was no exception.

A few kilometers away, in a poshly renovated noodle shop.

In such a small county, it was very rare to see a shop that didn’t lose to the decoration style of Shanghai restaurants.

Ice Shards ordered some seafood noodles and sat by the window, eating in small mouthfuls. The county was not far from the sea. Seafood was one of the local delicacies in abundance. It had a delicious taste as well. She went to the noodle shop and asked the waiter if there was any salted fish noodles.

The waiter said that all the seafood in his shop was fresh, and that there was no salted fish.

Ice Shards thought about it, and ordered a portion of yellow croaker noodles, two large yellow croakers, and additional toppings such as abalone, halibut, squid and pomfret. She specially told the waiter not to put scallops in the noodles, as she just wanted to eat fish today.

She didn’t eat much. She took a few bites of each kind of fish, treating each kind equally. After eating half of the noodles, she felt almost full and stopped eating. She took out some tissue and wiped her mouth slowly.

“Beauty, can I share a table with you?” A man’s magnetic voice floated in the air. The man in a cap and a mask sat down. He turned his head to look at the CCTVs in the store, deliberately positioning his back towards the cameras.

“Beauty, can I borrow your cell phone?” the man said again. His face could not be clearly seen, but he had a pair of deep and charming eyes, as well as long and dense eyelashes.

Ice Shards glanced at him and ignored him.

The man silently took off his mask and showed a beautiful face. The smile was seductive. “Now?”

“Scram!” Ice Shards was short and concise in her words.

The smile on the man’s face suddenly disappeared. He stared at the cold beauty in front of him for a few seconds. He frowned doubtfully, raised his right hand, and snapped his fingers.

The pupils of Ice Shards became empty. Her look was blank, as she sat like a puppet.

“She’s just an ordinary person, yet she can ignore my charm? What a romantically ignorant ice cube.” The man muttered as he grabbed the mobile phone on her desk. He was about to unlock her phone via fingerprint, only to find that the mobile phone had no password at all.

He formed a preliminary understanding of the woman in front of him. She was a very simple and pure woman, with a crisp character.

He opened her contacts list and searched for Li Xianyu’s name.

“No contact found.”

The man searched again: “Li Xianyu.”

“No results found.”

He typed “Little Brother” into the search engine again.

Still not found.

The man frowned. According to Li Xianyu’s background, he had a sister who was easy to identify. Her beauty was impressive, so there could be no case of mistaken identity.

The man looked through all the people in the contacts list at an extremely fast speed, but failed to find Li Xianyu.

He thought about it again and opened the WeChat app.

Her WeChat had few chat records. Only five or six conversations with other people were shown, which showed that she didn’t use messaging apps very much.

The man opened up a chat with an ID named “Do Yihang, Love Yihang”. He looked at the chat records, and immediately recognized that this ID belonged to Li Xianyu.

He clicked on his profile picture and checked the details. The phone number belonged to Li Xianyu.

He wrote it down, exited WeChat and inputted the phone number into her phone.

The result showed: “Little Slave!”

The man cursed uncontrollably in his mind. In order to check a number, he wasted two minutes. He could have done this task with ease, but he felt like his IQ had lowered.

What the fuck was Little Slave? Couldn’t you save someone’s name properly?

He composed a text message that said, “Your sister is in my hands. I want to see you at Jiuhu Mountain in an hour.

Signed: Liu Tong.”

The man turned off the cell phone and gently put it back in place. “You can sit here obediently for an hour.”

He put on his mask, got up, went to the cash register, and paid for Ice Shard’s meal. Then, he pointed to Ice Shards and said, “Don’t disturb her.”

As the man left, Ice Shard’s pupils moved as the life inside was restored.

Ice Shards looked down at the mobile phone, looking like she was thinking about something.
