Chapter 153 Fujiawan

Fujiawan.

In a small villa, third-floor bedroom, three figures materialized out of thin air.

"Phew, back again. Spent an exhilarating vacation in a dungeon," Zhang Yuanqing exhaled leisurely, looking at the familiar room.

The windows were open, and the early autumn wind and sunlight flooded in. The room was clean and tidy, the air-conditioning quilt was neatly draped on the bed, and a faint fragrance filled the air.

"Returning to the manor," Yin Yao expressed her joyful thoughts.

Unconsciously, she had begun to regard this villa as her own mansion. Compared to the cold and lonely ancient tomb palace, this place had a junior favored by her master, scheming concubines in the inner courtyard, a taciturn but responsive long-term worker, and television, mobile phones, rouge, and other things to pass the time.

This gave Yin Yao a sense of happiness, as if she had returned to the human world and was living a stable life.

Even with a detached and worldly mindset and experience, she still yearned for the colorful world.

At this moment, the Lingjing notification sounded:

[Ding! Tianxia Guihuo has requested to use your Scarlet Fire Crystals, Cold Moon Ore, Dragon Blood Grass, "Extinguishing World Flame"... ]

[Ding! Xiahou Aotian has requested to use...]

[Ding! Zhao Chenghuang has requested to use...]

[Ding! Sun Miaomiao has requested to use...]

These guys, is it really necessary? It's not like I'm going to steal your materials.

Zhang Yuanqing grumbled inwardly.

"Reject!"

Zhang Yuanqing responded to Lingjing's prompt and rejected the members' requests.

The next second, the cell phone on the desk rang loudly.

--The Bunny Girl had charged his phone for him.

Zhang Yuanqing picked up the phone, unlocked it with facial recognition, and opened the chat software. He saw the message in the dungeon team group.

Tianxia Guihuo sent a question mark. Zhao Chenghuang sent a string of ellipses. Xiahou Aotian said, "Yuanshi Tianzun, it's a path to death to hoard the protagonist's treasures. Are you trying to be a villain?"

Sun Miaomiao sent a "Stinky Pig."

Zhang Yuanqing stood at the table, holding his phone and looking down. He created a group chat and pulled Sun Miaomiao and the others into it:

[Yuanshi Tianzun: Enjoy the rights of the gang leader and establish the prestige of the gang leader (dog head).]

[Sun Miaomiao: Hmph, so childish.]

The others breathed a sigh of relief and sent the request again.

This time, Zhang Yuanqing agreed to their requests, and most of the Dominator-level materials in the gang's warehouse disappeared in an instant, as did the top-grade secret manuals.

[Yuanshi Tianzun: I know you can't wait, but are you sure your inventory can hold all these materials?]

Everyone: "..."

Haha, a bunch of bumpkins who have never seen money... Zhang Yuanqing slandered in his heart.

He knew very well the mentality of these dungeon team members. They had never seen so many treasures, and they couldn't wait to take them out to admire and play with them. Even just staring at them would bring a great sense of happiness.

[Tianxia Guihuo: Yuanshi is right, our inventory is not enough to hold so many materials. Just keep a few on you, and store the rest in the gang's warehouse. However, every time Yuanshi enters a dungeon, we have to take the materials out, just in case.]

"Afraid that I'll die in the dungeon, right..." Zhang Yuanqing thought to himself.

Tianxia Guihuo's proposal was unanimously approved by the dungeon team.

After a while, the dungeon team members successively submitted applications to use the gang's warehouse and put the materials back into the warehouse.

[Yuanshi Tianzun: How do we deal with those non-Lingjing materials antiques, which are very valuable?]

[Xiahou Aotian: I have channels to sell them. Every Scholar family runs auctions and knows many wealthy people who like to invest in antiques and collect antiques. But I can only auction one piece at most, more will easily attract attention.]

Even if one piece sells for hundreds of millions, it will be enough to greatly alleviate his financial pressure.

[Yuanshi Tianzun: Then let's sell one antique first, and slowly develop it, don't rush.]

[Xiahou Aotian: ok.]

#Xiahou Aotian changed the group name to: Qinfeng Academy Dungeon Treasure Sharing Group#

[Sun Miaomiao: Idiot!]

[Tianxia Guihuo: Moron!]

[Zhao Chenghuang: ???]

[Yuanshi Tianzun: Change the name back quickly, are you in a hurry to die?]

#Xiahou Aotian changed the group name to: Protagonist Team Struggle Group#

Ending the group chat, Zhang Yuanqing first called his grandmother, replied to his aunt's message, and reported his safety to Xiao Yuan.

Then he changed his clothes, put his phone in his pocket, and came to the living room on the first floor, only to find the villa empty. Only the tall and beautiful Bunny Girl was diligently cleaning.

"Where are they?" Zhang Yuanqing frowned and asked.

It was understandable that the three women were not at home, but if even the otaku Scholar was not at home, something must be up.

The Bunny Girl said in surprise:

"Young Master Yuanshi, you're back."

"During the seven days you were away, the Queen and Xie Lingxi each entered a dungeon once. Xie Lingxi entered the dungeon last night. Miss Guan Ya took the Queen and Li Chunfeng out to do a mission."

I see. A transcendent-stage dungeon won't take more than two days. Xie Lingxi will be out by tomorrow night at the latest.

Zhang Yuanqing nodded and didn't ask what task Guan Ya was doing.

The Bunny Girl wouldn't know anyway.

He turned into a ray of starlight and disappeared, appearing in Fu Qingyang's study.

In the spacious and luxurious study, the white-clothed Young Master Qian sat behind an expensive solid wood desk, handling the affairs of the patrol department. He stared at the documents, did not look up, and said lightly:

"Knock on the door before entering next time. It's impolite."

Zhang Yuanqing glanced around, not seeing Ling Jun, and immediately said:

"Boss, something happened at Qinfeng Academy."

Fu Qingyang then raised his head.

Zhang Yuanqing told Fu Qingyang about what happened in Qinfeng Academy as quickly as possible, omitting the details of the dungeon and only saying that he had successfully entered the hidden dungeon, but he couldn't handle it alone, so he invited four companions.

Fu Qingyang listened to Yuanshi Tianzun's counter-kill of Ren Junzi without expression, without any sign of approval, as if this was what he should do.

It was as if Ren Junzi was just an insignificant piece of trash, even with the fragment of the Compass of Light.

Was it difficult to deal with trash?

"Currently, the teachers at the academy don't know that the stone gate was opened, and they don't know Ren Junzi's purpose for killing people. Sun Miaomiao and I have agreed on our story."

Zhang Yuanqing finished speaking and said, "Boss, take a look and see if there are any flaws?"

Fu Qingyang listened to Yuanshi Tianzun's account.

Fu Qingyang frowned slightly:

"The biggest flaw is Ren Junzi's motive for killing. He possesses the Compass of Light and infiltrated Qinfeng Academy. He couldn't have just wanted to kill a few level 4 Saints who had just entered."

After thinking for a few seconds, he said:

"Play dumb. There's no need to give the headquarters an answer. After all, you're also a victim. As long as the fact that you have the key isn't leaked, the headquarters won't suspect you."

"They will feel confused, unreasonable, and feel that there must be unknown information inside, but they will never have evidence. Tianxia Guihuo, Xiahou Aotian, and Zhao Chenghuang have not been exposed yet, so there's no need to say more."

"The only loophole is Sun Miaomiao's armor."

Zhang Yuanqing immediately said, "Elder Sun will handle it."

Beijing, courtyard house.

Under the big locust tree, Sun Miaomiao, wearing light-colored slim-fitting jeans and a black T-shirt, dressed in a pure and innocent style, was dancing a cheerful dance that was recently popular online.

Behind her were small infant spirits, stretching their small legs and moving their small hands, following her to dance the same dance.

The cell phone in her pocket was playing a rhythmic, low, and magnetic male voice:

"Loving you walking alone in the dark alley, loving you for not kneeling, loving you for being so much like me, the gaps are the same."

She was like a kindergarten teacher taking care of children.

Elder Sun on the rocking chair couldn't bear it any longer, "Enough, Miaomiao, get out of here. If you play this song again, I'll throw you into the training camp."

Every time he heard this song, the children in the tree would collectively lose control."

The pure Yang flame surged violently.

The infant spirits were frightened, and while singing "Fight, fight," they scattered and fled, hiding back in the locust tree.

"Grandpa, I've been in the training camp all the time. I came back to report something to you." Sun Miaomiao took out the phone from her pocket, paused the music, and said, "Something happened at Qinfeng Academy."

She briefly explained what Ren Junzi did at Qinfeng Academy.

"Yuanshi Tianzun suspects it's a member of the Dark Night Rose?" Elder Sun frowned.

"What is Ren Junzi doing slaughtering students for no reason? No, not for no reason, he seems to have some purpose. Also, when did you get a Dominator-level armor?"

Ah, Grandpa, this old fox, is really hard to fool... Sun Miaomiao pretended to be stupid:

"How would I know why Ren Junzi is killing people, Grandpa? That armor is Yuanshi Tianzun's. He lent it to me to play with. The origin of the armor seems to be a bit problematic. He doesn't want to confess the origin of the armor to the Five Elements Alliance and wants me to help him get away with it."

"If the Five Elements Alliance asks, just say you gave it to me, okay? Just take it as thanking him for saving my life."

Elder Sun sneered, "Why should I help him? I'm so confused."

Small-minded... Sun Miaomiao secretly rolled her eyes, trotted over, went around to the front of the rocking chair, hugged Elder Sun's neck from behind, and coquettishly said, "Grandpa~ Anyway, it's the Five Elements Alliance's business, please, Grandpa~ Grandpa, Grandpa..."

"Alright, are you a gourd baby?" Elder Sun said with disgust, "I know."

Sun Miaomiao happily "smooched" her grandpa's old face.

After discussing how to deal with the headquarters' inquiries, Zhang Yuanqing took out the fragment of the Compass of Light and said, "Boss, how should we handle this?"

Fu Qingyang finally became interested, reached out and took the golden compass, reading the item attributes.

"It's definitely it." Fu Qingyang nodded.

"The attributes of two missing items were displayed at the internal meeting of the three branch elders."

He rubbed the dial with his fingertips and gave his advice:

"The headquarters doesn't matter, the one who's offering a reward for this item is that Chairman. My suggestion is to exchange the fragment for a reward and sell the Chairman a favor."

Keeping the item would offend the Merchant Guild, which was really unnecessary.

Fu Qingyang put down the golden compass, "Moreover, the things that Chairman rewards are more interesting and valuable than the fragment of the Compass of Light."

Zhang Yuanqing's eyes lit up: "What's the reward?"

"A redemption ticket from the Myriad Realms Bank."

"What is that?"

Fu Qingyang shook his head: "I don't know, I only know that when Chairman competed for the Compass of Light, he fought against three demigods alone with a redemption ticket."

"Damn, doesn't that mean I can also fight three demigods?" Zhang Yuanqing was pleasantly surprised, thinking to himself, is there such a powerful item in the world?!

Fu Qingyang glanced at him: "Chairman can fight three demigods because he himself is a demigod. In your case, you can probably fight three Saints."

I can fight three Saints now... Zhang Yuanqing immediately regained his senses, but that didn't prevent him from looking forward to the redemption ticket.

"I will report this to the headquarters, and the headquarters will be responsible for contacting the Chairman. Just wait for the reward." Fu Qingyang pushed the golden compass towards him and asked the question he cared about most with hidden anticipation: "What's in the academy's dungeon?"

Zhang Yuanqing instinctively looked around and said in a low voice:

"There's Emperor Qin Shi Huang's treasure vault in the dungeon..."

He told Fu Qingyang in detail about his experience exploring the dungeon, glossing over the materials and Dominator-level items.

He knew what Fu Qingyang cared about most.

Immediately, he took out the Double Dragon Jade Pendant and the Nuwa Emperor Picture from Little Red Riding Hood and carefully placed them on the desk. Fortunately, Fu Qingyang's desk was wide enough and didn't need to be moved, enough to accommodate a picture.

Fu Qingyang's eyes immediately narrowed when he saw the Nuwa Emperor Picture.

"Xie Family's Saint Infant?" He obviously recognized the baby in the painting.

"I've also seen the furnace. It's Lian Sanyue's Hundred Refinements Melting Furnace. Well, Lian Sanyue is the owner of the Myriad Treasures Shop and the daughter of the Zhao Family's Patriarch. I guess her Lingjing ID is not Lian Sanyue," Zhang Yuanqing said.

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but recall that when he searched for "Lian Sanyue" in the official database, he couldn't find such a person.

Later, he realized that the woman was a direct descendant of the Zhao Family. The Lingjing families had a strict set of rules for IDs. Her Lingjing ID was definitely not Lian Sanyue. This was the Jianghu name she gave herself, so it couldn't be found in the official database.

Fu Qingyang stared deeply at the painting, lost in thought.

Zhang Yuanqing then said, "Boss, is Nuwa in the myths and legends a real Lingjing Xingzhe? Does that mean her husband and brother, Fuxi, also exist?"

Fu Qingyang rejected his idea:

"Not much in myths is credible. The existence of Fuxi is more likely to be something people made up to suppress maternal power after society transitioned from a matrilineal society to a patriarchal society."

"Nuwa being an ancient cultivator doesn't mean Fuxi is too."

Zhang Yuanqing thought about it and felt it made sense. He offered smooth flattery: "Boss, you're wise. You and Guan Ya both grew up abroad. Guan Ya doesn't know much about our ancient myths, but you know a lot."

Fu Qingyang said coldly, "Don't compare me to trash."

How am I supposed to respond to that? Guan Ya is my girlfriend at least... Zhang Yuanqing didn't respond, watched him pick up the Double Dragon Jade Pendant, read the item attributes, and said:

"The secret of the Double Dragon Jade Pendant should be in Takamagahara. Do you need me to accompany you on a trip?"

"I have an appointment with Palace Master Zhisha." Zhang Yuanqing refused.

Fu Qingyang's sword-like eyebrows furrowed: "Is she trustworthy?"

The treasures in Takamagahara are of extremely high status and must be priceless. Wealth moves people's hearts, and he didn't trust Palace Master Zhisha.

"Trustworthy!"

As soon as Zhang Yuanqing finished speaking, he saw Fu Qingyang's eyes bloom with dazzling white light, staring at him without blinking.

Then, he took out a pair of golden scissors and "snipped" at his forehead.

"Boss, what... are you doing?" Zhang Yuanqing felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

Fu Qingyang didn't answer, the white light in his eyes dissipated, and he put away the scissors, "Think about it again, do you want to go with Palace Master Zhisha?"

Weird, did he cut something off of me... Zhang Yuanqing was full of confusion. Hearing this, he still nodded, "Confirm."

This time, Fu Qingyang didn't object.

"Oh, right, Boss, I got a superb item in the dungeon and plan to give it to you." After the main business was over, Zhang Yuanqing remembered the Swordsman Cloak.

Dominator-level items were rare. Even Dominator-stage experts had a limited number of items. He believed that no matter how generous Young Master Qian was, he couldn't possibly see Dominator-level items as dung.

What's more, this was still a divine cloak.

Unexpectedly, Fu Qingyang closed the unfinished documents and said lightly:

"Keep it for yourself."

Zhang Yuanqing was stunned: "Boss, it's a Dominator-level item."

Fu Qingyang frowned: "Relying too much on items will lead to the loss of a strong person's heart. Especially for swordsmen, the more singular the means, the purer the fighting spirit. Dominator-level items often come at a very high price. Having a lot of them isn't necessarily a good thing."

"Especially items from other professions. The prices are strange and varied, and the harm is endless. You should be the most aware of this."

Zhang Yuanqing glanced at him: "Are you sure you don't want it? Then I'll give it to Guan Ya."

Fu Qingyang "hmmed."

You'll soon beg me to take back my order... Zhang Yuanqing silently took out the Court Swordsman Cloak, "Alright, then this item will belong to Guan Ya. Boss, help me appraise it."
