Li Qingming had just dropped off the Li family of three back at their villa and was preparing to take a cold shower when his phone on the table started to buzz incessantly.
Li Qingming picked up the phone, and just as he put it to his ear, he heard a barrage of questions from the other end: “Brother Ming, my dear brother, you finally picked up!
Big brother, please tell me, what on earth is going on?
Why was the Xiao Family Mansion flattened overnight?
Did you hire an assassin to do it?
Li Qingming quickly moved the phone away from his ear, waiting about fifteen minutes.
When the phone finally quieted down, he calmly said, “Xiao Pang, what you’re trying to say…”
As Li Qingming was explaining a simplified version of events to Luo Shucheng, a heart-stopping scene was unfolding above Jinghai City.
Several short and stocky men, dressed in typical ninja attire, were furiously attacking a burly man wielding a giant axe, who also happened to be bald.
Upon closer inspection, it was Ling Shan from the Huaxia Special Action Group.
Ling Shan was rather unfortunate; originally, he was at Yuxu Palace enhancing his cultivation, bestowed by Li Qingming.
However, he had been drafted by his senior brother from the Earth Immortal Realm, Ling Hua, to go to Dragon City and submit a resignation.
Unexpectedly, just as he flew over Jinghai City, he encountered these sneaky shorties speeding from the direction of Dragon City.
Adhering to the principle of better to kill wrongly than to let go, the bald Ling Shan summoned his Magic Treasure, the Mountain-opening Axe, and charged at them.
Then, a tragic scene ensued!
Although these short Japanese men seemed sleazy, each one of them had profound cultivation, possessing the Divine Ninja level.
(Ninja are classified into Human-level Ninja, Earth-level Ninja, Sky Ninja, and Divine Ninja, corresponding to various realms of cultivators.) The bald Ling Shan, who had just reached the peak of the Refining Void and Merging Dao state and had yet to stabilize his progress, was naturally overpowered by the shorties.
Powerful spiritual energy waves crazily collided into the void, and fierce spells pierced through the sky.
The ninjas cackled madly, looking at the increasingly defeated Ling Shan, their satisfaction clearly overflowing.
‘Iron Tower’, it’s always your Group 7 that ruins our plans.
Today, I, Ichifu Kuboyama, will eliminate you first!
Surrender your life!” Leading them, Ichifu Kuboyama, wielding a Small Tachi, quickly slid towards Ling Shan’s neck.
As the Tachi approached, a violent aura instantly enveloped Ling Shan.
As Primordial Energy surged, a luminous white giant rabbit appeared in front of him.
The Jade Rabbit’s huge front teeth knocked the Small Tachi away, and its gleaming red eyes suddenly burst forth with rays of illusory brilliance.
A pink mist quickly spread.
The several short Japanese, suddenly blinded, could not see anything in front of them.
After an unknown amount of time, when the clouds and mist cleared, there was no trace of bald Ling Shan to be seen.
“Damn it!” Kuboyama gnashed his teeth, slashing at the void as if it was Ling Shan, and huffed, “Retreat!”
An hour later, hundreds of miles away in Dragon City, inside a secret base of the seventh special action group.
Bald Ling Shan sat cross-legged on a stone bed, inhaling and exhaling air.
After some time, Ling Shan slowly opened his eyes, unfortunately, they were utterly devoid of spirit.
He sighed deeply and said softly, “Damn it, I got terribly unlucky.
Who would have thought these short Japanese were so formidable?
It looks injury will take half a month to fully recover.” Then, Ling Shan opened the door to the secret chamber and walked toward the conference room.
Inside the conference room, members of Group 7 of the special action group, each with an extremely unpleasant expression, sat silently around the long table.
“Shanzi, is your injury serious?” The acting group leader, also under the Yuqing Sect, named Ling Ran, was a young man with clear eyes and a slender figure.
Ling Shan habitually touched his head and chuckled, “Boss, I’m fine, I won’t die just yet!
Just what are those shorties from Little Japan up to messing around in our Hua Xia again?”
Ling Ran looked at the puzzled Ling Shan and said, “Little Japan has really gone all out this time!
They actually sent five Divine Ninjas to steal all the data on Quantum Weapons from our Hua Xia.
If they manage to develop Quantum Weapons, our country will be in big trouble!”
Ling Ran, what should we do?” A beautiful young girl next to Ling Shan frowned and asked softly.
“With our current strength, if we do not inform the elders in the sect, it would be very difficult to ambush and eliminate these five Divine Ninja-level experts on Japanese soil!” Ling Ran pinched the bridge of his nose and said solemnly, “But if we inform the elders in the sect, by the time they arrive, the information would have already been leaked!
“That, maybe, there might be one person who can help us!” As everyone frowned in worry, Ling Shan rubbed his smooth bald head and said in a low voice.
“It’s the old ancestor of our Yuxu Palace, Qingmingzi!” Ling Shan said with difficulty as he swallowed his saliva, looking at the fierce gaze from the others.
“Ssss!” Others didn’t understand who Qingmingzi was, but how could Ling Ran not know?
He is a senior elder in the sect even more venerable than Sect Leader Tian Xinzi.
“This, is it appropriate?” Ling Ran hesitated for a long time, still unable to make a decision.
“He’s got legs, what’s there to hesitate about?
I believe every blood-worthy child of Hua Xia will help us.
I trust the old ancestor understands the righteousness and will agree!” Ling Shan suddenly stood up, slamming the table.
Ling Ran looked at his team members’ expectant eyes, gritted his teeth and said, “Damn it, whether you stick your head out or withdraw it, you’re getting chopped either way.
The winter’s nights always come especially early.
Although it was only seven in the evening, it was already pitch black.
Streams of colorful light, trailing long tails, landed outside Li Qingming’s villa.
Leading them was a slim yet fiercely aura-ed young man.
Following him were several handsome, youthful men.
They were the members of Group 7 of the Huaxia Special Action Group.
Given the urgency of the situation, these guys did not conceal their presence and flew directly to Li Qingming’s residence.
Ling Shan touched his bald head, feeling it was more realistic for him to knock on the door.
So, he adjusted his collar and pressed the doorbell.
Unaware of the situation, Li Qingming opened the villa’s door and frowned at Ling Shan and the Group 7 members behind him, saying, “Little guy, haven’t you had enough?
Didn’t I tell you not to disturb me?”
Ling Shan shivered all over, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, “Master, please forgive us!
But the matters of today are indeed with reason, please allow us to elucidate before meting out punishment!”
One trouble after another!
It seems Li Qingming’s peaceful life is destined to be no more!
Li Qingming was just venting, he wasn’t really going to punish them.
Seeing Ling Shan say so, he opportunely played along, “Alright, look at your accomplishments!
Come in then, just say what you have to say!” (To be continued.
