I Have A Dual World Seal-Chapter 844: The Ghost Head Infant Arrives in the Mortal World

"What the heck?"

"What the heck!"

A string of expletives echoed from inside the Steel Factory, along with some local dialect that Lu Zheng didn't understand, but the short syllables likely meant something similar.

Taking down an army of over a hundred singlehandedly, what's the concept of that?

Had it not been for recent conflicts with the Third Brother heightening tensions, the Xingguo trio would've stirred up again; otherwise, Lu Zheng would've been seen as an Immortal.

Even so, the people inside the Steel Factory, observing the situation outside, looked at Lu Zheng as if he were a marvel, witnessing a miracle.

Once confirmed as safe, Lin Wan led a few people to Lu Zheng's side, and the large iron gate inside the factory was hastily opened, and a group of Chinese emerged protected by the local guards.

...

The following events were quite simple.

Lu Zheng and his group were welcomed into the Steel Factory with warm hospitality.

Lu Zheng initially thought he'd have to fend off several more waves of self-defense attacks, given that the main force of rebels surely occupied the town by now; they couldn't possibly leave such a costly Steel Factory unattended.

But unexpectedly that afternoon, instead of a second rebel assault, they were greeted by Tanzania's national defense forces stationed at the Northwest border.

After all, this was a big issue!

With the Steel Factory under attack, this incident was even more serious than the rebel's occupation of the town. Under some pressure, Tanzania's border defense troops rapidly provided support, securing the Steel Factory before reclaiming the town.

Naturally, Lu Zheng couldn't take over, so their group of five were promptly escorted across the border into Rwanda that afternoon.

...

"That was thrilling!"

"That was terrifying!"

Upon entering Rwanda, Li Ying, Zhao Xiaodao, and the assistant were both excited and frightened.

They didn't quite know what to feel, except they had gained experience but were definitely not eager to experience it again.

The assistant patted her chest in sync with Zhao Xiaodao like sisters, "I can brag about this for a lifetime!"

"Alright, you've roamed the plains, seen the animals, been in a shootout, and even witnessed dead bodies," Lu Zheng shook his head and sighed, "Let's hurry and book flights back home."

They nodded repeatedly.

Just then, Zhao Xiaodao's phone in her bag suddenly rang.

"Xiaodao Xiaodao, are you still in Tanzania?" Zhao Xiaodao's manager said.

Zhao Xiaodao, "..."

Less than a day had passed since the group experienced the town shootout, and Zhao Xiaodao's manager was already informed, quite quickly.

Zhao Xiaodao reassured, "Don't worry, I'm not in Tanzania now."

"That's good! That's good!" The manager breathed a sigh of relief, "You don't know, Tanzania broke out in war; they reportedly attacked our country's factory too, terrifying.

You wanted to visit Africa; go to Morocco or Pharaoh Country, why visit countries with anti-government armed forces!

As long as you're not in Tanzania, fine. By the way, where are you now? Remember, you're due to join the new group soon. Hurry back for the script read-through; as the lead actress, you definitely need to be present!"

"Okay, okay, got it." Zhao Xiaodao nodded perfunctorily, "I'm in Rwanda now, heading back tomorrow."

"How did you end up in Rwanda?" Zhao Xiaodao's manager was perplexed.

"Because we just crossed through Tanzania," Zhao Xiaodao explained, "We survived the rebel siege and got escorted across the border by the defense forces."

Manager: ???

...

After staying a night in Rwanda, the group took connecting flights home, just in time before the holiday ended, returning to Hai City.

Zhao Xiaodao took the assistant to the new film crew, while Lin Wan and Li Ying resumed their jobs.

As for Lu Zheng, naturally...

"Young Master, Young Master Zhao came by a few days ago inviting you to a banquet, but you were not here."

Seeing Lu Zheng return, Uncle Li quickly stepped forward to report the recent events to him.

Aside from matters concerning the Sweet Shop and Sugar Workshop, there was only the issue of Zhao Wenrong hosting a banquet upon returning to Tonglin County.

"Understood."

Lu Zheng nodded. Unless unexpected, Zhao Wenrong would settle in Tonglin County from now on, so naturally, upon returning, he'd host a banquet to invite local friends and family.

But Lu Zheng was unfamiliar with the others and had gone to Yizhou Prefecture, so he never intended to attend the banquet upon Zhao Wenrong's return.

Exiting the back courtyard, Lu Zheng noticed Yue Honghai was typically absent, Tu Yuqing was still in the quiet courtyard reading, looking serene.

Next door, Liu Qingquan was doing her homework, but Tu Yujiao was not present.

"Did Tu Yujiao go out again?" Lu Zheng couldn't help but ask Tu Yuqing.

Tu Yuqing nodded, "She can't stay in one place; she went to Rongzhou to play."

"By herself?"

"Alone." Seeing Tu Yuqing nod, Lu Zheng was speechless, "Aren't you worried?"

"Why worry?" Tu Yuqing put down the picture book, wondering, "The third sister at least has five hundred years of Dao Practice, who can possibly harm her?"

Lu Zheng patted his forehead, realizing he was led astray, often misled by Tu Yujiao playing with Liu Qingquan.

After all, she was also a hundred-year fox spirit not inferior to Yue Honghai, how would she need concern?

Thus, Lu Zheng decisively changed the subject, "Is your sister still at Peach Blossom Plain?"

Tu Yuqing nodded, sighed, "She hasn't returned for three days, last time she dragged me to the street to act."

Lu Zheng glanced sympathetically at Tu Yuqing; having such sisters and a sister was indeed a helpless situation.

"Oh, right." Tu Yuqing suddenly remembered, "Shen Ying wanted me to tell you, when you return, go to Peach Blossom Plain; said the Ghost Head Infant seems to have come to the mortal world."

"Oh?" Lu Zheng's eyes flickered.

The Ghost Head Infant of Profound Yin Mountain, self-proclaimed Ten Thousand Transformations Saint Infant, intended to hold a grand gathering of a thousand children, but all his minions sent to abduct children in the mortal world were swiftly defeated.

Unexpectedly, he dared to come to the mortal world?

Lu Zheng nodded, no longer eager to visit Renxin Hall, instead soared into the sky, soon flying over Peach Blossom Plain.

As Lu Zheng's presence was felt, a crystal-clear Peach Blossom bloomed before him, as if welcoming.

"Lu Lang is back!"

Shen Ying's voice echoed as Lu Zheng landed in Taohua Village, turning back to see Tu Yuya chatting with Bi Xinyu.

"The Ghost Head Infant came to the mortal world?"

Shen Ying nodded, "A Little Ghost from the City God Temple saw the Ghost Head Infant leave Holy Infant Mountain, suspected it entered the mortal world."

"The Anomaly Suppression Bureau didn't act?"

Shen Ying shook her head, "Reportedly, the Ghost Head Infant wasn't found in the mortal world."

Just then, Chu Jin's voice echoed in Taohua Village, "Is Young Master Lu here?"

Lu Zheng raised an eyebrow, exchanging a smile with Shen Ying, "A business opportunity has come!"
