“How do you know that?” Baili Zongyang asked. Although he understood that Gu Ning knew that for a reason, he wanted to figure out how she managed to know so much about those people with super power.
“I met them. And I had a fight with them, but they weren’t at a very high level, so I wasn’t injured. I don’t know how strong they can get,” said Gu Ning. She didn’t take ninjas and mutants lightly just because she had killed several of them. She knew those she had met weren’t very strong.
“I encountered a mutant this time when I carried out the task. In fact, the mutant is our target. He’s strong and it’s indeed difficult to deal with him,” said Leng Shaoting. Precisely because it was hard to deal with the mutant, it took him half a month this time.
“Are you alright?” Gu Ning asked with concern. Although Leng Shaoting was safe and sitting next to her right now, she still cared about him.
Leng Shaoting felt touched. “I’m fine. My teammates were slightly injured, but they recovered.”
Because they weren’t seriously injured, they made a full recovery after taking the power crystals given by Gu Ning. Therefore, Leng Shaoting didn’t call Gu Ning to cure them in person.
As long as they weren’t seriously injured, Leng Shaoting wouldn’t bother Gu Ning. Gu Ning wouldn’t mind it, but he couldn’t take it for granted.
“It seems to be a real problem.” Baili Zongyang frowned. Leng Shaoting was better than him, but even Leng Shaoting found those people were difficult to deal with, so they could be really strong.
Because of that, Baili Zongyang thought Yin Shixun’s death and Hong Yifeng’s disappearance might have something to do with mutants.
Given Gu Ning’s description, ninjas were barely comparable to mutants, so Yin Shixun and Hong Yifeng should be able to defeat them.
“Oh, what else do you know?” Baili Zongyang asked Gu Ning.
Gu Ning continued, “Vampires are from Country M. They are neither human nor ghosts. They rely on sucking blood for their strength. Most of the time, they look no different than humans and resemble evil cultivators. They fear sunlight, so they are usually active at night. If they want to come out during the day, they need full protection. Even though they are extraordinarily strong, I think they are a lot weaker than cultivators in comparison, but we must take them seriously.”
“All of these have visited our country, and I’ve met them. I don’t know whether there are more beings with special skills,” said Gu Ning.
“They came to our country for nothing good,” said Baili Zongyang. Although he was a cultivator and he actually didn’t have an identity in the mortal world, he loved their country. If foreigners dared to intrude in their country, he would stand out.
“Right, they came for cultivators. Although countries in this world seem to be kind to one another on the surface, they never stop competing against each other. They don’t want such powerful people to exist in our country, since it would be a great threat to them. They only know we can fly, and no more details,” said Gu Ning.
Hearing that, Baili Zongyang was mad. Since they were the target, they must fight back.
“Whenever you meet ninjas, mutants, or vampires, kill them if you can. Never let them know you’re a cultivator, or they’ll report it to their leaders. It can cause more trouble,” said Gu Ning.
“Sure, I know,” said Baili Zongyang. He realized it was a serious problem.
“Oh, please also report it to Tiandaozong and the major families in the cultivation world. They need to know and be prepared. If they ask you how you learned about that, you can tell them you heard it from Shangguan Yang’s two disciples,” said Gu Ning.
“No problem.” Baili Zongyang had the same idea. He was about to ask Gu Ning whether he could report it to Tiandaozong, but Gu Ning told him to do that first.
After chatting for a while, they left.
…
Yun Hongqing went back to the cultivation world after hearing Jing Yunyao’s answer and reported it to Bai Lingtian.
Everyone was disappointed that she wasn’t an ancient pharmacist, but they could do nothing about it.
Anyway, even if she wasn’t an ancient pharmacist, she was a senior cultivator, so Tiandaozong would still treat her with respect.
…
Once Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were back in Mid-Levels Mansion, they had passionate sex.
The next day, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting booked a flight to City Ao for the next afternoon. The gambling competition would begin at 2 pm the day after tomorrow, and it would last for three days. So Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting would be gone for five days at least.
Leng Shaoting had been gone for half a month and they hadn’t visited the Leng family for so long. Therefore, they were going to go see Master Leng at the Leng family’s house that afternoon.
In the morning, Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning went to the company.
At noon, after having lunch, Leng Shaoting asked, “Zhou Xing will leave the hospital today. I’m going to visit him in a while. Will you go with me?”
“Why not!” Gu Ning agreed.
Although she only had met Zhou Xing once and he couldn’t see her, she had saved his life after all and he was Leng Shaoting’s comrade. Gu Ning felt she should go to see him.
So after they finished lunch, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went to see Zhou Xing at the Military General Hospital.
It had been a week, and Zhou Xing was much better, so he could leave the hospital now. However, because he was seriously injured, he still needed some time to make a full recovery. For now, he could walk freely, but couldn’t use much strength to work or exercise.
In fact, even if he was much better now, he wasn’t as healthy as before. It actually wasn’t easy for him to get that much better. Therefore, Zhou Xing couldn’t train and fight along with them any longer. In other words, he had to leave the team.
Zhou Xing was injured when he carried out the task, so Leng Shaoting had to take care of him. In fact, once he learned what had happened to Zhou Xing, he had made a plan for him.
First, Zhou Xing would receive compensation and could decide whether to go home and do a regular job or to join Shengshi.
If he went home and found a job on his own, Leng Shaoting would give him some money in addition to the national compensation.. If he chose to work in Leng Shaoting’s company, Leng Shaoting wouldn’t give him more money.
