Chapter 720: Goodbye Qiao Yifeng
Chen Xiaolian's face showed a look of embarrassment.
Qiao Qiao quickly put on her clothes, walked in front of Chen Xiaolian, and took his hand: "Don't worry, little face, I know what you're worried about." I'm not going to say anything, I just want to ...... Just see him again. β
β...... All right. Chen Xiaolian hesitated for a moment and nodded.
Chen Xiaolian led Qiao Qiao to hurriedly get on a shuttle boat on the dock on the island, and sailed towards the shore of the lake without delay.
Although the destination is called the eastern suburbs, it is not a wilderness. In recent years, many real estate and commercial centers have been built in the city's development, and Chen Xiaolian was worried about causing a commotion, so he did not take the tidal warplane.
Although the tidal fighter has stealth devices, it still has a certain visibility in daylight during the day. Being discovered in a big city like Jinling will cause a lot of trouble.
Driving onto the shore of the lake, Chen Xiaolian took out a car from the garage by the dock, and drove towards the eastern suburbs with Qiao Qiao.
In the team channel, he also explained to everyone that he received a contact from Qiao Yifeng and took Qiao Qiao to see him.
Although Luo Di and the others were surprised, they didn't say anything, only said that they would wait for Chen Xiaolian to come back.
In the resort, in Xiuxiu's room.
In the center of the room, a large plush carpet takes up half of the room.
The curtains were drawn tightly, and Xiuxiu sat alone on the carpet, holding a furry bear larger than herself in her hands, with her eyes closed.
When he went to see Qiao Yifeng, Chen Xiaolian did not use private chat, but told everyone directly in the team channel.
After listening to Chen Xiaolian's words, Xiuxiu did not reply, but suddenly opened her eyes and stood up.
She walked slowly to the door and stood in front of a large dressing mirror.
He ...... The man who killed our parents is also Jojooni's father. β
Xiuxiu looked at the mirror, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "After that guy named Da Gang stopped me, he disappeared." Until today. I'm happy, you're just as happy as I am, aren't you?"
In the mirror, there is also a Xiuxiu figure, but the expression is full of anxiety and panic, shaking his head quickly.
"Believe in yourself. You're happy, too, just as happy as I am. We're finally ...... I was able to see him. Xiuxiu stretched out a finger and pointed it on the mirror in front of her.
Xiuxiu in the mirror also made the same action. The two fingers touched each other through the mirror.
"The only thing that's sad is that Jojo Oni is back. I'm really afraid of hurting her...... No matter how much he hated that man, Jojo Oni ...... Jojo Oni who has always loved us. Isn't that right?"
Xiuxiu turned her head and looked at herself in the mirror, revealing a sweet and innocent smile.
"It's okay, don't worry. We're already strong. Just wait for Jojooni and Oba to leave before quietly doing it. No one will know, and no one will stop it. β
Xiuxiu in the mirror shook her head desperately, opened her mouth and said something, but she couldn't make any sound.
"Sleep, sleep in peace, and leave all control of this body to me. Xiuxiu stepped forward and gently kissed herself in the mirror: "I promise, when the things that need to be done are done, I will return this body to you." β
"Anyway...... At that point, there is no point in continuing to exist. β
Xiuxiu turned around and walked towards the door.
And on her side, in the mirror, her reflection has strangely disappeared!
Of the two worlds divided by the mirror, there is only one Xiuxiu left.
......
Ziyang Mountain Villa is the oldest and most luxurious hotel in the eastern suburbs, located in the Ziyang Mountain Scenic Area, covering an area of more than 1,200 acres, adjacent to the eastern suburbs golf course.
Although Chen Xiaolian has never been here, the road is very familiar. After driving for more than half an hour, the car has arrived at Ziyang Villa from the shore of Ginkgo Lake.
"Mr. Joe, I'm here. β
Chen Xiaolian parked the car in the parking lot, took out his mobile phone and dialed it.
"Is there anyone following?" only rang, Qiao Yifeng picked up the phone and said hurriedly.
"Nope. Chen Xiaolian shook his head: "Tell me your building number and room number, and I'll come here." β
"No, I'm not at Purple Sun Villa. Qiao Yifeng's answer surprised Chen Xiaolian: "Continue to drive east, arrive at the Le World Theme Park Resort Hotel, and call me again." β
Chen Xiaolian hung up the phone, but his brows were locked.
"What's going on?" Qiao Qiao watched as Chen Xiaolian restarted the engine.
"Your dad he'...... Very discreet. It's like she's hiding from something. Chen Xiaolian drove the car towards the outside of the hotel: "He wasn't here, and after confirming that I wasn't being followed, he told me he was somewhere else." β
Le World Theme Park is a large amusement park in the eastern suburbs, which is a popular attraction in Jinling City. Because it is far away from the main city, a supporting resort hotel has been built next to the theme park, just like Disney.
It didn't take long for the car to arrive at the theme park's parking lot. This time, after Qiao Yifeng received the call, he simply reported the room number.
Chen Xiaolian led Qiao Qiao to the top floor by elevator, found Qiao Yifeng's room number, and knocked on the door gently.
"Who. Qiao Yifeng's voice came from inside.
"Me. Chen Xiaolian. Chen Xiaolian sighed secretly in his heart and replied in a low voice.
Then, it was the sound of the chain behind the door being opened, and Qiao Yifeng's pale face appeared behind the door.
He looked nervous, and it wasn't until he saw Chen Xiaolian's face that he finally breathed a sigh of relief. But when Qiao Qiao's figure appeared behind Chen Xiaolian, his expression suddenly became fierce again: "Didn't I let you come alone?"
"It's my teammate. If there's something, go in and say. Chen Xiaolian glanced at him, with no expression on his face: "Or if you don't trust me, I can leave immediately." β
"You ......" Qiao Yifeng gritted his teeth, but still got out of the way, and watched Chen Xiaolian and Qiao Qiao walk in, then closed the door and carefully put on the chain again.
Chen Xiaolian walked into the room and looked around. This is a luxurious ensuite with the outermost floor being the living room and two bedrooms inside. For this kind of amusement park-affiliated resort hotel, it is already considered the most upscale room.
Because of the theme park, the furnishings in the room are mainly children's style, and the walls are surrounded by various cartoon characters.
Qiao Yifeng was originally sitting on the sofa in the living room, the ashtray on the coffee table next to him was full of cigarette butts, and the room also smelled of tobacco, which was incompatible with the furnishings of the room.
"For Mr. Qiao, this kind of hotel is a little worse. Chen Xiaolian didn't wait for Qiao Yifeng to greet him, so he walked straight to the sofa and sat down, and also pulled Qiao Qiao to sit beside him.
He was angry in his heart, and the words just now also carried an obvious mocking tone.
Obviously, staying in this kind of hotel, Qiao Yifeng is trying to hide himself. This kind of place where visitors come from amusement parks, and in the relatively remote eastern suburbs, is always not so easy to find.
But Chen Xiaolian was dissatisfied that since he had found him, he still looked distrustful, and first called himself to Ziyang Villa before telling his real address.
After seeing Qiao Qiao behind him, the look of being nervous and almost wanting to close the door immediately made Chen Xiaolian feel even more unhappy.
After sitting on the sofa, Chen Xiaolian looked at Qiao Yifeng, who was walking back from the door, and was stuffing a pistol into his arms.
- Even if you don't remember Qiaoqiao, but in your memory, I was always the boyfriend of your other daughter, Yu Jiajia!
I'm always your close partner!
If you disappear without saying a word, then you will disappear completely. Now that you've called me, it's time to trust me completely!
Qiao Yifeng has been in the business world for so many years, and his ability to observe words and colors is naturally not bad. Seeing Chen Xiaolian with a displeased look on his face, he naturally understood in his heart. He walked to Chen Xiaolian and sat down, straightened the collar of his shirt: "Xiaolian, I'm sorry." It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that you've been in danger for some time. I have to be cautious to save my life. β
"Saving your life?" Although Chen Xiaolian was a little unhappy in his heart, he was not such a calculating person after all, so he nodded and didn't make any more trouble: "Who is chasing you?"
"A couple of teams of Awoken. It's not very strong, but I'm ...... You know, just a normal person. Qiao Yifeng lit another cigarette for himself and took a deep breath.
"Haven't you always had a protector by your side?" Chen Xiaolian frowned: "Although Zero City was destroyed, there must have been other people around you at that time. Although the Awakened Beings stationed by your side are not the top masters in the team, they are not too bad. If it's just a normal team, there's no reason you should be forced to be like this. β
"It's some people left. But ......" Qiao Yifeng's brows tightened: "There was a large-scale dungeon recruitment before, you should have also participated, right?"
"Ah, yes. Chen Xiaolian reacted at this time.
Even if Qiao Yifeng wasn't in Jinling City before, he shouldn't be too far away, beyond the scope of the previous dungeon's recruitment. He did have some awakened people with a mountain of swords and fires left by his side, but these people were all called up for dungeons.
The result of not participating in the quest is obliteration. Of course, these Awakened also entered the Nagasaka Slope dungeon.
But now...... The dungeon has ended, and these members of the Sword Mountain and Fire Sea have not yet returned to Qiao Yifeng's side.
That meansβ
They died in the dungeon.
"They weren't very lucky. Chen Xiaolian sighed: "There is only one real battle in this dungeon, and there are not many people killed in the battle. β
"Nope. They didn't die in the dungeon. Qiao Yifeng shook his head: "Yesterday, they came back." But several of the teams in the quest were aware of their identities and followed them after the quest ended, eventually finding me. Those people only know that I am a worldly agent of the sword mountain and the sea of fire, but they don't know ...... After the destruction of Zero City, even I couldn't get in touch with the Sword Mountain and Fire Sea again. There are too many of them. There are only three Awoken bodyguards around me, and they are not too strong. They desperately saved me and let me escape, but I ...... Killed in battle. β
"They want to find the current hiding location of the people of Zero City?" Chen Xiaolian sneered: "The team that can let you escape intact is not much stronger." It is true that Zero City was severely damaged when it was destroyed, but the remnants of the escaped personnel were not just any trash fish team that could be used as prey. With them, even if they find the hiding place of Zero City, what can they do?"
"There are always confident people in the world. Qiao Yifeng was secretly teased by Chen Xiaolian, with a gloomy face: "It doesn't matter if they have the ability to snatch the things in Zero City's hands." The important thing is that for an ordinary person like me, no matter whether the enemy is C-level, A-class, or S-class, they can easily kill me!"
"I see. Chen Xiaolian nodded: "You just want to seek protection, right?"
Qiao Yifeng's face was a little embarrassed: "I know this is also difficult for you-"
"It's not tough. β
Qiao Yifeng was just halfway through his sentence when he was interrupted by Chen Xiaolian with a sneer: "It's just a few miscellaneous fish teams, and our meteorite team doesn't have the need to put it in our eyes yet." β
Qiao Yifeng lowered his head slightly, hiding the anger on his face.
This kind of thing should have been said by him.
Although he has died in battle and refreshed into an ordinary person, he is after all the worldly agent of the resident team of Sword Mountain and Fire Sea, the resident team of Zero City, with a lot of wealth in his hands, and also a force that is beyond the reach of the world.
Whether it is facing other awakened people or other rich people in the world, he will always be on top.
Just like when facing Chen Xiaolian before.
At first, Qiao Yifeng thought that Chen Xiaolian was just an ordinary student with a little money. Later, although he knew that he was also an awakened person, how could a newcomer who had just entered this world be worthy of his Qiao Yifeng's daughter?
At that time, Qiao Yifeng always had a condescending attitude towards Chen Xiaolian. Whether it was when he took his daughter away, or when he asked Chen Xiaolian to seize the Star Sand Mine.
Even if in the end, Chen Xiaolian obtained the mining rights of the Xingchen Sand Mining Area, in Qiao Yifeng's eyes, this is just a newly rising team, with some strength, barely qualified to make some transactions with Daoshan Huohai.
Chen Xiaolian got the power of the Heavenly Sword, and defeated an A-level and an A+-level master in one fell swoop in the blood trial, and as a core member of the Sword Mountain and Fire Sea, he was naturally clear.
But after the news of the fall of Zero City came, his first reaction was to flee immediately and hide himself.
The sword mountain and the sea of fire are all over, and the zero city with so many resident teams together is over. A Chen Xiaolian, even if he has a strength close to S-level, how can he be expected to protect himself?
What's more, if he wants to let himself seek refuge from this junior, Qiao Yifeng can't pull this face.
Even now, when the members of the Daoshan Huohai team left behind by him all sacrificed to protect themselves, and only he escaped by himself, Qiao Yifeng struggled repeatedly in his heart for a long time before dialing Chen Xiaolian's number.
The meeting between the two was unsurprisingly awkward. It was even more embarrassing than Qiao Yifeng originally imagined.
It's not that he's not unaware of his current situation. But the arrogance he had cultivated over the years as a superior still made him unable to get used to Chen Xiaolian's attitude.
"All right, Mr. Joe. Chen Xiaolian waved his hand: "If you say anything superfluous, don't say it." I promised Mr. Lan Hai before that I would take care of the sword mountain and the sea of fire, including you, of course. Let alone...... You are my elder after all. Pack up your things and let's go. β
"Blue Ocean?!" Qiao Yifeng was suddenly startled: "When have you ever seen the Blue Ocean?"
"You really don't know. Chen Xiaolian smiled faintly: "On the day of the fall of Zero City, I was here." β
