About two or three minutes later.
After contacting the Disaster Managent Bureau, Chen Jing returned to Li Jing’s side.
Seeing that the Research Institute staff had already begun exploring the nearby sea area with drones, Chen Jing looked out towards the sea, then took out his phone to add a new contact.
"Give your Immortal ssage contacts so we can add friends."
"Alright."
Li Jing gave him his contact as requested.
Adding a friend wasn’t much of a big deal.
Since Chen Jing asked for it, he couldn’t refuse, right?
After adding each other as friends, Chen Jing quickly browsed through Li Jing’s social dia profile.
"Why is your profile so clean?"
"..."
Li Jing was speechless.
He didn’t like posting on social dia, and besides, he had nothing to post.
Before he could answer, Chen Jing put his phone away in disappointnt.
"Once the Research Institute locates the entrance to the Small Secret Realm, I’ll transfer you 10 million. It’s alright if we have to go through approval procedures afterwards. Since you call uncle, I should offer so convenience to you."
!!!
Li Jing.
If it was confird to be a Small Secret Realm, his 10 million reward was guaranteed.
But the approval process could be lengthy.
His rits from the Evil Cultivators case hadn’t been approved yet.
The 2.5 million he had in hand was given to him as an advance by Dai Hong personally.
Chen Jing’s offer was too good to be true!
million, advanced paynt!
Even though he knew Chen Jing’s generosity might be because he had expectations of him, calling him ’uncle’ was really worth it.
"Thank you, uncle."
Li Jing said sincerely.
"No need to thank . It’s what you deserve."
Chen Jing spoke lightly and casually.
"I know about your struggles in Jianghai. If there’s anything I can help you with, I definitely will. Don’t worry about buying a house for now. Yuran has moved out since quite a while back due to her rebellious nature, so just help keep an eye on her."
With this, he gazed intently at Li Jing.
"I wouldn’t say I’m not worried about Yuran living alone outside, but she’s my only daughter—you understand?"
"..."
Li Jing.
Chen Jing’s motives were deep.
On the surface, it seed like an advance paynt, but it was much more than that.
He was telling him not to rush buying a house, keeping him around Chen Yuran...
Looking at Chen Jing, who was waiting for his response, Li Jing gave a dry laugh and nodded.
"I understand."
In front of him, he couldn’t really say he didn’t understand.
He wasn’t in a hurry to buy a house anyway.
With 10 million, he couldn’t afford a good house. Given his situation, it’d be better if he used the money for learning new skills or other things.
So, he agreed first in order not to upset Chen Jing, his so-called uncle who was eager for his daughter to settle down, and end up not getting the advance paynt.
Chen Jing was quite satisfied with Li Jing’s perceptive response.
This lad was indeed sensible, wasn’t he?
Just when he was about to say sothing more, Academician Liu hastily ca over again.
From so distance away, he called out loud.
"Director Chen! We’ve got the results!"
On hearing this, Chen Jing raised his eyebrows and looked out towards the sea.
Li Jing also turned his head.
The next mont, they saw that thousands of Institute’s drones had inexplicably gathered over a deep water area outside the swimming area, forming a radius and casting lights on the sea surface.
Seeing this, Chen Jing imdiately took out his phone and clicked on a few applications.
Then, Li Jing felt his phone vibrate in his pocket.
The mont he felt the vibration, he knew his 10 million reward had been transferred.
Although Chen Jing had promised it earlier, the sudden arrival of such a fortune still left him sowhat unprepared.
At the sa ti, Academician Liu, flushed with excitent, ca up to them and pointed out the area where the drones were concentrated.
"After detection, the entrance is about three hundred ters below the sea surface. The entrance passage is in good condition and very stable. Based on past experience, the entrance passage should only have appeared a few days ago, and it is now at its most stable stage. It is expected to last for three to five days, but the actual ti when the stability begins to decline depends on the actual situation."
After pouring out all the details, he eagerly asked.
"When can the Disaster Managent Bureau get here?"
"At the earliest, about two hours."
Chen Jing responded.
"So slow?"
Academician Liu’s face collapsed on the spot.
"Indeed, it’s a bit slow."
Chen Jing unquestionably replied.
"However, there is no way around this. The small secret realms with confird existence of death zones are highly risky. It requires people who have been trained in pupil techniques to form the initial exploration team. We in Jianghai City’s Disaster Managent Bureau don’t have that many relevant personnel, and have to urgently transfer them from other cities."
After hearing Chen Jing’s explanation, Academician Liu’s expression reluctantly improved sowhat.
Despite the urgency, he understood that one could not afford to be reckless when it ca to these matters.
The oddities are unpredictable and extrely dangerous.
Even the professionals from the Disaster Managent Bureau would never dare to take it lightly.
Just as he was feeling helpless, Chen Jing turned his head towards Li Jing.
"Do you mind if I take a look at your skills?"
?
Li Jing was montarily stunned.
Before he could react, Academician Liu’s eyes lit up.
"Director Chen, are you going to take action?"
"The entrance to the Small Secret Realm has been confird. From here on, ti is of essence and it’s not practical for us to just wait here."
Chen Jing smiled and said,
"It’s rare for a Small Secret Realm to appear in North City, so I’ll cross the line this ti. If the oddities in the Secret Realm wander out, it’s highly likely that the deadly zones which breed the oddities are right behind the entrance. Before the personnel from the Disaster Managent Bureau arrive, I will clear the entrance. They shouldn’t bla ."
"Of course they can’t!"
Academician Liu smiled broadly.
Bla him?
What a joke!
Chen Jing is a one of the Six Realms!
Even if the head of the Jianghai City Disaster Managent Bureau ca, they wouldn’t dare to let out a fart in front of him, at most they would secretly complain.
Would such complaints be taken into account?
With a single word, Chen Jing could silence most people in minutes.
This has nothing to do with his position;
It’s all about power!
Clearing his throat with a cough, Academician Liu eagerly asked,
"Since Director Chen, you are willing to take action, should I arrange personnel now to prepare for the survey of the Small Secret Realm?"
"Yes, I will take care of cleaning the entrance and ensure a safe Earth Realm."
Chen Jing responded, once again looking at Li Jing.
"What do you say?"
By this ti, Li Jing had naturally caught on.
When Chen Jing said he wanted to see his skills, he ant he would take him into the Small Secret Realm for a fight.
Could he refuse?
Didn’t he wish to go inside to gain experience?
Without any hesitation, Li Jing nodded vigorously.
"If Uncle hopes to see my skills, of course I won’t mind."
"Good, let’s go."
Responding, Chen Jing levitated into the sky.
Seeing this, Li Jing quickly followed suit.
In just a breath’s ti, both of them had arrived at the unmanned deep sea area encircled by drones where the entrance to the Small Secret Realm was located.
Seeing that Li Jing could barely keep up with him, Chen Jing gave him an approving glance.
This flight was simply Chen Jing’s casual act.
But any ordinary Earth Realm cultivator would not find it so easy to keep up with him just by levitating.
In this respect, even his highly prized daughter couldn’t achieve it.
Li Jing understood this.
In front of Chen Jing, he had nothing to hide.
Even if he revealed all his abilities, it would be nothing to Chen Jing, who had the cultivation level of the Six Realms.
Since Chen Jing brought him along to observe his skills, how could he not give a good performance?
"What lies in the Secret Realm is uncertain. Follow closely and don’t be distracted."
Chen Jing spoke softly. His hovering body suddenly sank.
As his figure descended, an invisible force acted upon the sea surface, forcing it to part on both sides.
Seeing this, Li Jing decisively followed.
Entering the Secret Realm was what he looked forward to.
But once inside, he would certainly stick close to Chen Jing.
Who knows what’s inside the Secret Realm? There might be so formidable creatures guarding the entrance. Having Chen Jing leading was the safest option.
