Chapter 47: Chapter 38: The Law Enforcent Team Again
"Ah..."
The girl lightly covered her lips, her face growing redder. She waved her hands repeatedly. "I’m sorry, I didn’t an to say you were trash. I was talking about that Nie Xiaotian’s son..."
Her words trailed off in greater embarrassnt. Wasn’t the legendary piece of trash the very person standing before her?
’If he’s really trash, then what does that make ?’
"Haha!" Seeing that the girl didn’t seem very good at interacting with people, Nie Yun didn’t mind. He asked, "Where did these Demons co from? Why were they after you?"
’According to my mories from my past life, the Demon Race invasion isn’t supposed to happen for another year. Could it be that my rebirth has accelerated the tiline?’
’If that’s the case, this is big trouble. My strength is still far too lacking, and I haven’t prepared anything. If the Demon Race invades now, Luoshui City will certainly be annihilated, just like in my previous life!’
"I don’t know either. I... I was cultivating with my master and only returned today. I was ambushed by these people as soon as I reached the docks. I have no idea why they were after !"
The girl’s blush faded as she saw the young man wasn’t pressing her. She answered after thinking for a mont.
"Your master? From the Baihua Sect of the Divine Wind Empire?"
Nie Yun asked, having suddenly recalled sothing.
"You... How did you know?" Luo Qingcheng was stunned.
"Haha, when it cos to a Sect of only won that could produce a genius like you, that’s the only one I could think of in the Divine Wind Empire..."
Nie Yun couldn’t exactly say ’you told
in my past life,’ so he just gave an embarrassed laugh and made up a random excuse.
"I never said my Sect was all-female..." Luo Qingcheng seed surprisingly sharp when it ca to asking questions, and she pressed on.
"Er... Seeing how you’re like a lotus erging from the mud, untainted—as innocent as a blank sheet of paper—I just guessed!" Nie Yun’s old face flushed red.
’Sigh, to have lived for several hundred years only to be questioned into a corner by a teenage girl. How embarrassing!’
"Heehee, you guessed right. I am from the Baihua Sect!" Luo Qingcheng’s laugh was like a hundred flowers blooming.
The two chatted a bit more. Nie Yun found that while this Luo Qingcheng’s personality was quite different from the one in his mories, her core character was unchanged. She was neither arrogant nor impatient, and she wasn’t afraid of hardship or exhaustion. For a princess from a great family, that was already quite impressive!
It was precisely because of these strengths that, at only seventeen this year, she had already reached the Qi Sea Fifth Realm and possessed strength far beyond her peers!
"I need to go back to the City Lord’s Mansion to see my parents. Why don’t you co with ?" Luo Qingcheng invited after they had talked for a while.
"See your parents? No, I have things to do. I have to go now!"
Nie Yun waved his hand.
’What would people think if I went to your house with you in the middle of the night? You’re a young woman, you should be more careful...’
Although he thought this, Nie Yun could understand. This Luo Qingcheng had been sent to the Baihua Sect for Cultivation since she was a child. The Sect was composed entirely of won, so her disposition was naturally a bit naive. She probably invited him to see her parents purely out of friendship, not realizing how much gossip it would cause for a girl to bring a boy of the sa age ho in the middle of the night.
"Oh, you have things to do? Alright then, I’ll co find you another day to hang out!"
A trace of disappointnt appeared on the girl’s face when the young man refused, but she quickly thought of sothing and hurriedly spoke.
"Alright, I’ll be waiting for you at ho!" Nie Yun replied casually.
’A branch family mber like
is considered the lowest of the low in Luoshui City. I don’t want to get involved with the City Lord’s Mansion anyway.’ He had only given a casual reply, not believing for a second that the City Lord would let Luo Qingcheng out after she got ho!
"Oh, right, what’s your exact address? Tell !" Seeing the young man agree, Luo Qingcheng asked eagerly.
"My ho... Haha, when the ti cos, just look for the Nie Tian Branch of the Nie Family!" Nie Yun said again, not having expected the girl to take him seriously.
"The Nie Tian Branch? I’ll rember that. Goodbye, Nie Yun!"
Luo Qingcheng committed the na "Nie Tian Branch" to mory, laughed once more, and then her body beca as light as a butterfly as she quickly flew off in the direction of the City Lord’s Mansion.
’That Demon was able to undergo Demonization, so his status in the Demon Race must not have been low. Now that I’ve killed him, the Demon Race invasion will probably be moved up! I have to heal Father’s injuries as soon as possible!’
As he watched the girl disappear into the distance, Nie Yun’s gaze imdiately fell on the corpses of the Demons on the ground.
’Before he was injured, Father was an expert at the Qi Sea Seventh Layer Armor Realm. If I can repair his Qi Sea and restore his strength, our branch will have a better chance of survival during the chaos of the Demon Race invasion!’
’I’ll dispose of these bodies and head back imdiately. I need to find a way to get the last of the dicinal Materials and refine the Heart Returning Pill for Father!’
To refine the Heart Returning Pill, besides a stalk of Beardless Grass, one other main dicinal Material was needed. This material was also extrely precious, but Nie Yun knew where to find it thanks to his past life’s mories, so he wasn’t too anxious!
’My original plan was to wait until Father achieved First Layer Great Success in the Spirit Rhinoceros Body Refining Technique and my own strength had reached the Peak of Qi Sea Fifth Layer or even the Sixth Layer before going to get it. But now, it seems I don’t have that much ti to wait!’
’Having fought the Demon Race for over two hundred years, Nie Yun knew them very well. Once they decided to act, they would never give you a chance to breathe!’
’Perhaps these few Demons were just passing through, and I’m overthinking it. But it’s better to be prepared than unprepared. In my previous life, almost everyone I cared about died in the Demon Race invasion. I don’t want history to repeat itself in this life!’
Soon, Nie Yun had cleaned up all the Demon corpses on the ground. The Luoshui River was right there anyway. He found so cloth to tie the bodies together, attached them to a rock, and threw them in.
After cleaning the bloodstains from the ground as well, Nie Yun finally headed back in the direction of his branch.
He soon arrived at the branch, but even before entering the courtyard, Nie Yun sensed that sothing was wrong.
’Why has the branch’s main gate collapsed?’
He saw that the main gate to the branch’s residential courtyard was lying toppled on the ground. The area outside was a total ss, as if it had just been ransacked.
Leaping over the gate and looking inside, Nie Yun felt a surge of fury erupt from the crown of his head.
The courtyard was in even worse shape. All the plants had been hacked down, and the furniture and other items were all smashed to pieces. The entire branch was in a state of chaos even worse than during the Demon Race invasion of his past life!
’What happened here?’
Suppressing his rage, Nie Yun hurriedly walked toward the living room in the center of the courtyard.
The living room was filled with clamoring voices and brightly lit. It seed he wasn’t too late; the culprits who had caused such chaos in the branch apparently hadn’t left yet!
"Hehe, I’ll say it one more ti. Hurry up and bring out that good-for-nothing Nie Yun! Otherwise, your branch will be removed from the family today. There’ll be no need for it to exist anymore!"
Before he even entered the living room, he heard a cold sneer from within. Nie Yun took two steps into the room and saw more than a dozen figures inside, every one of them dressed in the uniform of the Clan Law Enforcent Team!
To think that the ones causing a ruckus in the branch were none other than the Clan Law Enforcent Team again!
