I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon-Chapter 599 - Returning home
The 28th day of the Lunar New Year was approaching the end of the year
The streets and alleys were filled with lanterns and streamers.
Every household was filled with the New Year spirit.
Just like in previous years, Ling Ping’an woke up early in the morning.
He was preparing to return to Qilipu to pay respects to his ancestors.
This was a habit he had had for more than 20 years.
However, this year was different from previous years.
He had too many questions about paying respects to the ancestors this year.
It was mainly about his birth!
From the Grand Supreme, he already knew that he did not come to this world without a purpose.
It had been a deliberate plan from the very beginning.
Moreover, it was very likely that there had already been a plan for his birth a long, long time ago.
And the Qilipu Ancestral House undoubtedly hid a secret.
He put on the clothes that Li An’an had brought back for him from Northern Zhou.
Ling Ping’an habitually put on his glasses and hugged Bastet. He asked Li An’an, “Aunt, are you really not going back with me?”
Li An’an shook her head. “Your ancient Ling family has too many rules! I won’t go and be a nuisance…”
Ling Ping’an smiled. In the past, he would have agreed.
But now, he understood.
Those rules might have been some kind of protection.
“Then…” Ling Ping’an waved his hand and said, “I’m leaving!”
Thus, he carried Bastet and walked out of the shop’s door.
Woof, woof, woof…
The little shiba-inus barked at him.
Ling Ping’an didn’t turn back and walked straight ahead.
…
She watched his figure gradually disappear into the far end of the street.
The smile on Li An’an’s face gradually froze.
She turned around and looked at Chu Weiwei. “Let’s go!”
“Let’s go to Qingcheng Mountain!”
“Okay!” Chu Weiwei nodded.
Going to Qingcheng Mountain was something they had decided on a long time ago.
In the space and time of the Southern Song dynasty in their dreams, they had made an agreement with the immortal who called herself ‘Old Mother of Mount Li’.
Both sides would try to use Qingcheng Mountain as a base to sense each other.
According to what the other had said…
Even though in a different space-time, their situations and environments might be completely different…
It was not impossible to come into contact with each other.
Under the erosion of the river of time, there would always be some places that would form subtle connections.
For example, the famous mountains and great rivers that existed in both sides.
However, this kind of connection was extremely faint.
Under normal circumstances, it was almost impossible to form a connection.
However…
If someone was able to leave the same mark in two different dimensions…
When the mark was deep enough…
Then, through the connection between the two parties, they could resonate with an incredible divine ability.
The ‘Old Mother of Mount Li’ had said that this was cause and effect.
And in Li An’an’s understanding, this was probably the so-called quantum resonance.
And the node, according to the ‘Old Mother of Mount Li’ conjecture, was Qingcheng Mountain!
Thus, the two women closed the shop door, carried their backpacks, and brought along the shiba-inu with the nickname ‘Ah Huang’ as they walked out of the shop.
The private car that they had already contacted was already waiting for them at the intersection.
…
Zhang Fengxiao stood at the entrance of Qilipu village with complicated feelings.
He gazed at this peaceful and serene village.
Chickens and dogs smelled each other, and smoke curled up.
Apart from the electric fence inside and outside the village and the neat asphalt roads, this was almost akin to the idyllic village from ancient times.
The village children were playing in the small alleyway.
They were actively chasing rubber balls.
“Director Lu…” He smiled and said to the man behind him, “You haven’t returned to your hometown for many years, right?”
Lu Wenxiao, who was wearing casual clothes, chuckled. “I often come back!”
“Then why haven’t I seen you before?” Zhang Fengxiao didn’t quite understand.
He was a big shot!
The new cabinet had already nominated him as the Constitutional Adviser in the Prime Minister’s office.
This was the constitutional authority that was specifically responsible for reviewing the cabinet’s policies and bills.
It was to prevent the cabinet from misinterpreting or unintentionally violating the constitution.
Although he didn’t have much power, his status was extremely high.
Basically, all the supreme guardians of the Supreme Court had served as Constitutional Advisors to the Prime Minister.
Therefore, the constitutional advisor to the Prime Minister was generally understood to be a noble and important person.
Lu Wenxiao shook his head. “How could a person who has been kicked out of his household dare to enter the vicinity of the house again?”
“That would be punishable by the Heavens!”
Lu Wenxiao lowered his head.
Zhang Fengxiao moved his lips, not knowing how to answer.
At this moment, Zhang Fengxiao’s phone rang.
He picked it up and smiled. “The big brother of the Wang family is calling!”
Lu Wenxiao smiled and gestured for Zhang Fengxiao to pick up the phone.
Zhang Fengxiao picked up the phone and greeted the other party with a smile.
While behind them, a young man walked over while humming a tune.
“There’s a group of ducks swimming under the big tree in front of the door…”
“Quick, come and count them. Two, four, six, seven, eight…”
Lu Wenxiao turned his head around curiously.
He saw a young man carrying a cat as he slowly walked on the green slate path in the countryside.
He wore a pair of glasses and looked ordinary, but it made people subconsciously not dare to look at him directly, all the more to look at his appearance.
It was as if just ‘looking at him’ would subconsciously make them feel ashamed and guilty.
Guilty.
Lu Wenxiao could not help but be surprised.
Because he had heard of similar things.
The female city god of the imperial capital and the guardian God of the nation, Emperor Guan, both had similar methods that could silently affect the vigor and will of others.
It was similar to a magnetic field or the so-called passivity in online games.
So this young man was also a deity?
He raised his eyebrows, and felt like it was difficult to breathe.
There was no doubt about it.
At this point in time, to have this young man with such divine abilities on this road…
Apart from that ‘Young Master’, who else could it be!?
He swallowed his saliva, wanting to catch up and speak.
However, he discovered that his legs seemed to be filled with lead.
He couldn’t move and wanted to speak, but his vocal cords seemed to have been sealed.
It wasn’t until the other party’s figure walked into the village and passed through the rows of houses that Lu Wenxiao regained his strength.
“Phew…” He sighed deeply. “Does the absolute punishment still exist?”
Zhang Fengxiao didn’t know all this. He had been on the phone the whole time.
At this moment, he put down the phone and fawned over Lu Wenxiao. “Duke Lu… Big Brother Wang said that their brothers are already on their way back to their hometown!”
“Oh right!” Zhang Fengxiao rubbed his hands, “Commander Hu seems to be back too!”
Hu Nuonuo was now the Brigadier General of the Blackguard.
She was almost one step away from becoming a general!
Moreover, because of the uniqueness of her divine powers, she was more important than the General in the Blackguard!
Who wouldn’t respect a living divine doctor who could heal the general’s wounds and cure the transcendent beings’ difficult and complicated diseases?
More importantly, there was a craze within the blackguard. This hibiscus fairy doctor had the bloodline of the nine-tailed fox.
Right now, she was only in her infancy.
It was said that an adult nine-tailed fox was at least a god!
Furthermore, it was an extremely high-level God!
Zhang Fengxiao couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
This small Qilipu village actually had the bloodline of an immortal beast!
Moreover, it was a top-grade bloodline that was on the same level as the Phoenix and Kirin!
It was too incredible!
