Chapter 252: Chapter 252 - Cleansing Operation (2)

“Oh, coming.” Leng Qingtian and the others hurriedly ran over to help when they heard that there might not be any food later.

Leng Ruoxue picked up a piece of cleaned meat and started grilling it.

“It smells so good!” Old Zao sniffed.?The meat the lass grills smells so good!

“Of course!” Old Man rolled his eyes at him disdainfully.

“You… Hmph! I won’t bicker with you,” Old Zao said magnanimously and turned to focus on gathering the ingredients.

Leng Ruoxue pondered as she watched the two old men bicker.?They’re about the same age, so they should know each other, right? But their relationship seems a little strange!?At least, this was what she felt.

The meal quickly ended amid commotion…

After eating and drinking to their heart’s content, everyone sat together and began discussing.

“Grandpa, I’m going out for a while!” Leng Ruoxue suddenly said. She needed to confirm the exact location of the Spiritual Deities before she could arrange what to do next.

“I’ll go with you!” Dongfang Yun said.

“Okay.”

Then Leng Ruoxue and Dongfang Yun each took an appearance changing pill and left the Illusionary Forest.

…

On the streets of Phoenix City, an ordinary-looking man and woman in their early twenties appeared. The woman was carrying a silver mink in her arms, and on each side of her shoulder stood a small bird, one red and the other black. Although they looked ordinary, their inherent noble temperament made them impossible to ignore.

They walked into a restaurant, found a random spot in the dining room on the first floor, and sat down.

“Hello, what would you like to eat?” a waiter asked respectfully after coming to their table.

“Anything will do,” Leng Ruoxue replied lightly.

“Please wait a moment.” The waiter bowed and left.

“Xue’er, there should also be a Spiritual Deity in Phoenix City,” Dongfang Yun whispered. These two days, they had run to several places and had already found out the exact locations of those Spiritual Deities. This should be the last place they checked.

“Yes,” Leng Ruoxue answered softly.

At this moment, the waiter brought the food over.

“Has anything new happened in Phoenix City recently?” Leng Ruoxue asked the waiter.

“Hehe, of course. Recently, our city lord is preparing to choose a wife and some concubines, so it’s very lively,” the waiter said hurriedly while looking at Leng Ruoxue.

“Oh.”?Hmph! Those people actually have the mood to marry and take concubines. Are they planning to stay here for a long time?

“Is there anything else?” Dongfang Yun stuffed an amethyst coin into the waiter’s hand.

“I also heard that Leng Ruoxue and the others, whom several city lords have offered a joint bounty on, have appeared. The city lords are discussing a strategy!” the waiter whispered with a mysterious expression. Then he carefully looked around to avoid being discovered.

“Really?” Leng Ruoxue pretended to be surprised, her face full of curiosity.

“Of course it’s true. Everyone is spreading it! But it’s such a pity for such a great beauty,” the waiter said regretfully.

Dongfang Yun glanced at Leng Ruoxue, who was sitting opposite him, and couldn’t help asking, “Why is it a pity?”

“Isn’t it a pity that such a great beauty is about to perish? But maybe the city lord will be protective of the fairer sex and take her in as a concubine!” the waiter said without even noticing that Leng Ruoxue’s face was turning uglier and uglier.

“Let’s go!” Leng Ruoxue stood up, displeased.

“Did I say something wrong?” the waiter murmured to himself as he watched the two leave.

“Xue’er, that waiter didn’t do it on purpose,” Dongfang Yun consoled as they walked side by side on the streets of Phoenix City.

“I know. I won’t take the matter to heart with a waiter,” Leng Ruoxue said lightly.

“Let’s go back, lest Grandpa and the others become anxious from waiting,” Leng Ruoxue continued.

Dongfang Yun nodded. They found a remote corner and flew out of Phoenix City.

…

“Grandpa, we’re back!” Leng Ruoxue shouted as soon as they returned to Quill’s residence.

“Hehe, lass, you’re finally back. We’ve been waiting anxiously,” Old Zao rushed to say.

“We went to several places, so we took some time,” Leng Ruoxue explained and found a random place to sit down.

“Xue’er, how was it?” Leng Qingtian asked directly. His granddaughter went out for two days, so she should have gained something, right?

“Grandpa, we went to six places. The six Spiritual Deiters are each occupying a city as their main city, and they also call themselves city lords.” Leng Ruoxue gave a simple explanation of the situation.

“Grandpa Leng, those Spiritual Deities don’t care about us at all. They only know to eat, drink, and play around every day. Their lives are extremely luxurious and decadent. Many people complain, but they can only swallow their anger,” Dongfang Yun added. The current Ling Feng Continent was far more chaotic than they had imagined.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Grandpa, it seems that we’ll have to split up into six groups to destroy them at the same time. Moreover, we can’t let them run away, lest they contact the Upper Realm.” Leng Ruoxue revealed her plan.

“Yes. It wouldn’t only be a disaster for us but also for the entire Ling Feng Continent if they contact the Upper Realm.” Leng Qingtian nodded in agreement.

“Then let’s discuss a detailed plan!” Lin Liang said.

After discussing for several hours, planning for countless unexpected events that might occur, and coming up with countermeasures to deal with them, Leng Ruoxue and the others split up.

Leng Ruoxue led Guo Yong, Guo Qiang, and Dongfang Yun straight to Phoenix City.

…

Outside the gates of Phoenix City…

“Junior Aunt, shall we go directly to the city lord’s mansion?” Guo Yong asked curiously.

“No, go and destroy those small fries. I’ll go to the city lord’s mansion by myself,” Leng Ruoxue said and released a few fire phoenixes.

“Big Sister, please go with them!” Leng Ruoxue said to the transformed Feng Ling’er.
