Chapter 164 Matters to be Addressed

The higher the level, the rarer the quantity, this applies to both Lingjing Xingzhe and props.

Zhang Yuanqing believes that a Dominator-level rule-based prop is semi-public among Lingjing Xingzhe of the same level.

The more advanced the item, the more people know about it. On the contrary, items of lower levels are known by very few.

For example, if you want to find out who the previous owner of an extraordinary-quality prop was, who would know?

Hearing this, Lian Sanyue frowned.

"If that Dog Elder from Songhai is correct, he used to be from the Fu Province branch, but was later transferred to Songhai and has been there ever since. From the time I knew of him, he has been in control of that rule-based prop."

*I was just in elementary school when my dad died, at least fifteen or sixteen years ago. If my dad was the previous owner of the zoo, then the Dog Elder must have obtained this prop at least ten years ago.*

*Back then, Lian Sanyue was probably just a little girl.*

Lian Sanyue continued, "Based on the years, the previous owner of the zoo has been around for at least ten or twenty years, or even longer. It won't be difficult to find out, give me five days."

Zhang Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

"Thank you! So, the fee..."

"Fifty thousand, you pay twenty-five thousand as a deposit first, and the balance will be settled in five days," Lian Sanyue said.

*That's cheap. Also, with her level and background, she can easily contact veteran Dominators and just casually inquire about it.* Zhang Yuanqing immediately took out thirty thousand, left a stack, and pushed the rest to Lian Sanyue.

After doing all this, he turned and left Wanbao House.

At dawn, Zhang Yuanqing sneaked back to Songhai and stayed at home for the night.

The next morning, he received a text message from Guan Ya. She had entered a dungeon, Lingjing number 0277, a single-player dungeon with a difficulty level of A, named "Lin'an Bizarre Case."

The main task was to investigate this case within five days.

Zhang Yuanqing lay in bed, opened the database, and logged in to the "Yuanshi Tianzun" account to search for "Lin'an Bizarre Case."

Due to his meritorious service in collecting props, his authority had been restored to the level of deacon, but the punishment of not being promoted within a year was still in effect.

[Lin'an Bizarre Case: During the Southern Song Dynasty, strange events occurred frequently in Lin'an. From royal nobles to common people, many died in bizarre ways. The government was powerless, so it widely invited famous people from all over the world to investigate this case thoroughly.]

Below the Lingjing introduction was a strategy document, but Zhang Yuanqing's authority was not high enough to download it.

"The Lingjing introduction looks good. It feels like going back to ancient times and becoming a headhunter specializing in solving strange cases? A single-player dungeon for the scout profession is quite interesting."

Seeing that there was a strategy, Zhang Yuanqing was not flustered.

Although the strategy couldn't guarantee a 100% survival rate, such as some levels where you know how to pass but your ability is not enough, you will still die, but at least it saves the exploration stage.

*Fording a river by feeling the stones is the most dangerous.*

Furthermore, dungeons with strategies usually mean there is no "first kill" reward, the hidden score after clearing the dungeon will be reduced, and the experience points gained will also be reduced, but it is stable.

*Alas, I won't be able to see my mixed-race girlfriend for at least five days.*

Zhang Yuanqing rubbed his Jingubang, which was standing tall and proud, feeling very sad.

At this moment, the bedroom door was pushed open, and his little aunt jumped into the room, coquettishly saying,

"You stinky pig! Get up and eat!"

Zhang Yuanqing calmly pulled out his hand and yawned, saying,

"Got it, you go out first, I'll change clothes."

After speaking, he glanced at his lower body, which was propping up the thin quilt.

His little aunt's bright eyes instinctively glanced over, her face blushed slightly, and she spat out,

"It's Saturday today, you have to accompany me to the shopping mall."

Zhang Yuanqing thought for a while and said, "Okay, but only in the morning. I have something to do in the afternoon."

His little aunt suddenly became interested, lowered her voice excitedly, "Are you going to catch bad guys again?"

"Sort of!" Zhang Yuanqing nodded.

"Then you have to tell me the process, I want to hear it," Jiang Yuer hopped a little.

"Got it, got it."

After eating breakfast, Zhang Yuanqing washed up and, while his little aunt went back to her room to put on makeup and change clothes, he also returned to his room and sat at his desk, thinking about his plans for the near future.

First of all, it was definitely the Star Official dungeon. He had to watch it every day and remember it repeatedly, but only a little over a week had passed since leaving Yashan Sea, so he wasn't in a hurry about the dungeon.

Then, hunting down evil professions.

The meaning of moral points is to prevent accidental killing of ordinary people in battle and moral points being cleared, and the meaning of reputation is that reputation points are not cleared after hunting down practitioners of the same camp.

Clearing either of them would result in being wanted by Lingjing.

He didn't have much reputation now, so he needed to hunt down evil professions to make up for it. Then, the day after tomorrow, he would make an offering to the Old Hag and ask her to bestow the Ghost Mirror.

The Old Hag said that she would send him the Ghost Mirror within ten days. The Subduing Demon Pestle had already been returned. The Old Hag didn't want to return to reality, so she could only summon the Old Hag herself.

"Go back to Huadu in five days and ask about the relationship between the zoo and my dad. That's about it."

Just then, the bedroom door opened and his little aunt poked her head in, "Let's go!"

As the door opened, Zhang Yuanqing saw his little aunt's outfit. She was wearing fitted capri pants, outlining the rounded curves of her long legs to the fullest, with full and perky buttocks.

A black vest was paired with a shoulder-baring t-shirt, with a hint of mature seductiveness in the Mori-style simplicity.

On her feet were a pair of sandals with exposed toes, her delicate and cute toes painted with sparkling nail polish.

Her pretty oval face had light makeup, with her eyebrows and eyeliner drawn, making her features even more refined and her eyes more spirited.

Her lip color was already bright, so she didn't need to use lipstick, so she only applied lip balm to make her lips look crystal clear.

However, although his little aunt's lip shape was extremely beautiful, Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but think of the Old Hag. The Old Hag's lips were the sexiest he had ever seen.

Coupled with her cold, aloof, and otherworldly temperament, her sexy and plump little mouth was like the only charm on a fairy, especially alluring.

"Let's go!" Zhang Yuanqing got up and walked out with his little aunt, arm in arm.

As soon as he reached the living room, he was glanced at by his grandmother's cold and murderous gaze. He quickly withdrew his hand and honestly sneaked out the door.

After eating lunch at noon and sending his little aunt home, Zhang Yuanqing came to Fu Qingyang's study.

Young Master Qian flipped through the documents without looking up and said,

"The mess caused by those three wastes has come to an end for the time being, you don't need to collect props anymore."

"Have they all been found?" Zhang Yuanqing was taken aback.

He had seen the list before going to Wanbao House to refine props yesterday, and at least a dozen props were still missing.

How could they all be collected in one day?

"Last night, the Songhai branch and the Dionysus Club completed information exchange through the black market. The Dionysus Club has recovered eight props during this time, and the remaining four or five can be resolved in the short term," Fu Qingyang explained.

"Oh, I almost forgot that the Dionysus Club is also working hard to recover props. After all, that boss doesn't want to be besieged by demigods from all over the world." Zhang Yuanqing suddenly realized, and then asked,

"Have all the props with serial numbers before 15 been recovered?"

Fu Qingyang's expression became inexplicably serious when he heard this, and he shook his head, saying,

"There are still two missing, but even the president of the Merchant Guild couldn't find them, let alone others."

"They were obtained by Lingjing Xingzhe, right." Zhang Yuanqing immediately understood.

Fu Qingyang nodded slightly.

"Then it's fine. Lingjing Xingzhe are bound by moral values. The three demigods don't have to worry about their moral values being cleared, um, but if they are obtained by evil professions, it is likely to be a disaster for low- and middle-level orderly professions," Zhang Yuanqing commented, while thinking to himself,

*No matter how powerful they are, they are nothing in front of my artifact.*

He didn't care too much about this matter and brought up his needs, "Boss, I want to hunt down evil professions to accumulate reputation. Do you have any way?"

Fu Qingyang pondered slightly, "I'll give you a list later, and you can go to the addresses on the list. In fact, the authorities have always secretly collected information on evil professions, including their residences and real identities, and the number is quite large. But most of them will not be hunted down immediately. Sometimes, keeping an eye on them is better than getting rid of them. Of course, another reason is that Dominators need a lot of reputation from September to December every year."

*Sure enough! Blood Rose came from this. This is what I want.* Zhang Yuanqing offered smooth flattery, "The troubles that are difficult to solve for me are trivial matters that are not worth mentioning for Boss."

Then he asked,

"I have heard that Dominators have to hunt down a large number of evil professions every year to accumulate reputation, but I don't know the specific reason."

He hoped to get an answer from Young Master Qian.

But Fu Qingyang said indifferently, "You don't need to know these things. They are too far away for you. But since we are talking about this, be careful yourself. It's best to keep a low profile after September."

Orderly Dominators need a lot of reputation, and evil Dominators must also need it.

And orderly Dominators will secretly collect information on evil professions, and evil Dominators will too.

"I know."

From this point of view, it's best to live in Fujiawan after September.

Leaving Fujiawan Villa, he drove the Queen's car to Wuhen Hotel.

It was 3:30 in the afternoon when he met Xiaoyuan. The hotel business was deserted, and Aunt Xiaoyuan stubbornly stood at the front desk, waiting for possible guests.

"You come here more often and bring gifts. Do you have something going on again?"

Xiaoyuan looked calmly at Yuanshi Tianzun, who came in with a smile.

"Aunt Xiaoyuan, what are you saying? Can't I come to see you if there's nothing going on?" Zhang Yuanqing carried the fruits he bought, as well as the expensive skin care products stolen from Guan Ya and Little Green Tea.

"But since you've said that, I do remember something. Um, I want to hunt down evil professions recently. Aunt Xiaoyuan, do you have any connections? Providing detailed information and addresses of a level 5 Sage, reward 200,000 for transcendent, 50,000 for extraordinary."

"No!"

Xiaoyuan refused with a bluntness that betrayed no emotion. "My channels have long been cut off. Didn't you know?"

Looking at her indifferent gaze, Zhang Yuanqing felt a little ashamed. Xiaoyuan's two channels were cut off because of him.

He could only say dryly, "Aunt Xiaoyuan, you have deep feelings for me."

Xiaoyuan chuckled.

Although he didn't get the answer he wanted, Zhang Yuanqing still stayed to chat with her for two hours until the sun went down before he left.

Zhang Yuanqing found that he couldn't quite figure out Xiaoyuan. She was always hot and cold, sometimes aloof and sometimes a little gentle.

*I haven't chatted with Lingjun for a while. I'll take some time to ask for advice.*

After he left, Xiaoyuan picked up her phone and sent a text message to Kou Beiyue.

It was 9:30 in the evening, past the peak hours for food delivery. In the old city of Jinshan City, Kou Beiyue warmly received Human Blood Mantou with his younger brother at a food stall.

"Why are you free to treat me to dinner today? Did you make a lot of money?" Human Blood Mantou was extremely surprised.

Kou Beiyue, although very loyal, was also particularly stingy. Usually, treating someone to milk tea was already the limit.

"I took a big order." Kou Beiyue picked up a skewer of roasted lamb, devoured it, and patted Human Blood Mantou's shoulder with the attitude of an older brother taking care of his younger brother, saying,

"Mantou, do you have any enemies you want to get rid of but can't?"

Human Blood Mantou became alert, "What do you want to do?"

"Help you get rid of them." Kou Beiyue raised his chin, "If you do, tell me, but you must include detailed information and addresses."

Human Blood Mantou sized him up, then suddenly lowered his voice,

"Is it reliable?"

Kou Beiyue nodded slightly, "Below the Dominator, you can mention anyone. You can rest assured about Kou Beiyue's work."

"When have you ever done anything that made me feel at ease?" *Beiyue has become more and more arrogant since he took in a younger brother.* Human Blood Mantou pondered for a moment, saying,

"I have an enemy named Blood Mary. She used to be a subordinate of the Weird Eye Judge. After the Weird Eye died, she joined the Gu King. She almost killed me and humiliated me. Moreover, after she joined the Gu King, she humiliated me again."

A look of resentment flashed in Human Blood Mantou's eyes, then he deflated and said,

"But I am not her opponent. She is a level 5 Sage. She was level 5 last year. Even if she is not level 6 now, she is at the peak of level 5."

"Tell me where she is hiding, and I will definitely make her pay the price." Kou Beiyue patted his chest with the attitude of stabbing his brothers in the back.

"I don't know where she lives. We freelancers are very cautious in this regard, but I know she likes to keep male lovers. One of them is a member of the Spirit Association who she took in after joining the Gu King. That guy used to be my younger brother. I know where he lives," Human Blood Mantou said, "But I don't know when Blood Mary will go."

"You just need to tell me the address of that younger brother. You don't need to worry about the rest." Kou Beiyue took everything on himself.

Human Blood Mantou looked at him deeply, "If you can get rid of her, I will recognize you as my boss."

At 10 p.m., Fujiawan Villa.

Zhang Yuanqing sat at his desk, scrutinizing the list on the computer.

"Tsk, they are all transcendent Sages, not many of them. How much reputation can this be worth? Boss is really stingy."

He was not very satisfied with the evil professions on the list.

Killing a transcendent would only reward a dozen or dozens of reputation points at most.

If it was a Sage, the higher the other party's reputation, the more reputation rewards he could get.

Killing small fries and killing small bosses yields different reputation.

At this moment, his phone dinged, and a message came in from Aunt Xiaoyuan.

*A level 5 peak psychic? Blood Mary.* Zhang Yuanqing's eyes lit up, thinking, *Aunt Xiaoyuan still loves me.*
