Chapter 205: Cloud Palace Revisited
It was getting late, and a cool breeze was blowing.
Zhang Yunxian and Shi Qiao'er stood side by side on the roof of the building, silently looking at the lights of thousands of homes slowly lit up in the distance.
"Why are you telling me this?" Shi Qiao'er raised her hand and stroked her hair, which was a little messy from the wind, and asked Zhang Yunxian sideways.
Zhang Yunxian just told Shi Qiao'er about his true situation as it was, knowing that his anxiety about the future was already an imminent enemy of the Sage, and there were so many mysterious forces that were hidden and could give him a knife in secret at any time......
In addition to his identity as the apocalypse, Zhang Yunxian almost said everything he could say.
"I want you to understand that there have never been any secrets between me and Liu Xiaomei! I haven't spoken to her for a long time, but I just suddenly feel a little lonely!" Zhang Yunxian said softly.
Shi Qiao'er hesitated for a while, and finally mustered up the courage and said slowly: "I also want to tell you a secret!"
"Do you want to say that your sudden arrival in Xijing and your appearance in front of me this time is actually not an accident?"
"You know?" Shi Qiao'er covered her mouth, somewhat eclipsed, "I thought I was acting so well......"
"Don't say that, Qiao'er! I know that you don't have any ill will towards me! From the first time I saw you at the gate of the park, I had a faint guess in my heart, I knew that all this might have something to do with the 'Heterophile Bounty Alliance', but I don't know what their real intention was in sending you to me?"
"I don't know much!" Shi Qiao'er hung her head, thinking that she might be the most failed 'spy' in history, right?
"My dad only told me, let me follow you, saying that you won't hurt me, and it will bring me great benefits!"
Zhang Yun smiled idly, there was nothing wrong with what Shi Jian said, "Did your father specifically tell you what to do after you came?"
"No, he just told me to take good care of my body and repair it as soon as possible......
Speaking of this, Shi Qiao'er suddenly understood a little, the so-called 'repairing the spirit body' means to completely integrate herself with Liu Xiaomei's spirit body!
"Although I have only met your father once, the impression he left on me is still relatively kind, I think he made this arrangement, there should be no bad intentions, so you don't have to have any psychological burden!" Zhang Yunxian looked at Shi Qiao'er and seemed a little entangled, so he comforted her.
"That's right!" Shi Qiao'er suddenly remembered something, "Is there one of those remnant clan inheritances you just talked about called the spirit disciple remnant clan?"
Zhang Yunxian nodded, "According to Fang Yao of the Tianfeng Relic Clan, there is!"
"I just vaguely remember that once in my father's office, when I overheard him talking to a mother-in-law, I seemed to have mentioned the words 'Spirit Disciple Remnant', which seemed to be very mysterious and cautious!"
Shi Qiao'er racked her brains and searched for such a piece of information in her messy memory fragments.
"In this way, things will be clearer!" Zhang Yunxian said lightly.
If Shi Jian and these spiritual cultivators belong to the ancient spirit disciple remnant clan, then the last time the two met, Shi Jian's attitude was not difficult to explain, and he must have already recognized his true identity as an apocalypse.
Now placing Shi Qiaoer by his side should also be a manifestation of taking the initiative to show goodwill!
As for why the Spirit Disciple Relic Clan showed favor to himself, the Apocalypse, Zhang Yunxian could also guess a thing or two after a little thought.
Duanmu Gong, as the Great Elder of the 'Heterogeneous Bounty Alliance', goes without saying that he must also be a relatively senior member of the Spirit Disciple Remnant Clan, and his spiritual power cultivation, in Zhang Yunxian's opinion today, is only just reaching the passing line of spiritual power transformation.
As for Shi Jian, although Zhang Yunxian couldn't see it thoroughly at the beginning, but now that he thinks about it, he should have just entered the realm of spiritual power and transformation not long ago.
From this point of view, although the spirit disciple relics are born with spiritual power and bloodline, and their qualifications are far beyond ordinary spiritual cultivators, they should also be shackled by some rules, so they can't break through, just like cultivators can't advance to saints, it's the same reason.
And the apocalypse who can break the shackles of the times and reopen the path to godhood is naturally their long-awaited hope for the remnants of the spirits.
Zhang Yunxian figured these things out, and naturally felt a little happier in his heart.
Looking at Xijing City, which was already shrouded in darkness, he felt that he should hurry up and talk to the demon clan first, to see if the theft of the bones of the alien was caused by them.
"I have to go out at night, if you have dinner, you can take Qingling and Nangong and them to the neighborhood to solve it!"
Zhang Yunxian glanced at it, and everyone downstairs was still immersed in the state of spiritual power cultivation, so he had to explain to Shi Qiao'er.
"Where are you going?" Shi Qiao'er muttered with some dissatisfaction.
"Get down to business!" Zhang Yunxian said depressedly while changing his shoes and going out.
He was really depressed.
He sometimes wondered how good it would be if he wasn't the Apocalypse.
He now has a mansion, a luxury car, and a huge amount of money on the card, which may not be spent in his lifetime according to his own living habits.
Read books every day, keep fit, and travel every now and then, such a leisurely day is also good for a lifetime!
However, fantasy is always fantasy, just like most people in the world fantasize every day that they can become rich overnight and live forever!
For Zhang Yunxian, ordinary days are the ultimate fantasy that he most desires but can't get now.
As for where to find the people of the demon clan, the first thing Zhang Yunxian thought of was naturally the 'Cloud Palace' in Dongcheng.
There, it is where the cat demon Luo Xiuxiu works on weekdays.
Zhang Yunxian looked at the time, it was exactly eight o'clock in the evening.
The hustle and bustle of the Cloud Palace has just begun.
Zhang Yunxian found a relatively hidden position in the crowd, and his spiritual power quietly came out, instantly enveloping all corners of the Cloud Palace.
Luo Xiuxiu's perception is very keen, which Zhang Yunxian has understood, so he is convinced that Luo Xiuxiu will definitely be able to find himself as soon as possible with the source of spiritual power.
But the fact is that he inspected all the boxes in the Cloud Palace, but he didn't find the slightest trace of Luo Xiuxiu at all.
She's not there?
Zhang Yunxian was a little surprised.
After thinking about it for a while, he quickly expanded the scope of his spiritual sense to the location of the two communities of 'Weishui No. 1' in the west of the city and the 'Jade City' in Qindu.
In addition to the Cloud Palace, he could think of places that were somewhat related to the demon clan, and that was these two places.
The Dream Garden of Weishui No. 1 is a foothold for Ling Zhiyuan.
And the jade city of Qindu is a stronghold of the 'Nuwa' organization.
But Zhang Yunxian regretted to find that in these two places, he didn't see Luo Xiuxiu, or other members of the demon clan who were a little suspicious.
Just when he collected his spiritual sense and was about to turn away, he almost bumped into a pair of tearful eyes.
Zhang Yunxian was startled, and hurriedly took a few steps before he saw clearly that the person standing in front of him turned out to be the current head of the Cloud Palace, the woman named Cheng Wushuang.
Cheng Wushuang's slender body was wearing a gray professional skirt and a long knitted jacket.
Zhang Yunxian was bent on finding Luo Xiuxiu, and almost forgot about the fact that Cheng Wushuang was also in the Cloud Palace.
"Zhang Yunxian!" Cheng Wushuang's delicate face turned crimson because of excitement, and the moisture in his eyes seemed to be about to roll down.
"Hello!" Zhang Yunxian was a little overwhelmed, nodded politely, and at the same time he looked at Cheng Wushuang in front of him, and there was only one emotion in his heart, this woman is a little too thin, right?
"Follow me!" Cheng Wushuang didn't know where to give birth to a muster of courage, grabbed Zhang Yunxian's wrist with his little hand, and walked upstairs without saying a word.
Zhang Yunxian had the heart to refuse, but he felt Cheng Wushuang's little cold but clenched little hands, and finally sighed and followed her.
In the general manager's office on the third floor, Zhang Yunxian has come for the third time.
The first time was to assassinate Qin Yong and find out the truth about Liu Xiaomei's death.
The second time was to save Cheng Wushuang, who was kidnapped by him, from the hands of the poisoner Wu Tianming.
The room was redecorated by Cheng Wushuang, and it looked much warmer than before, and Cheng Wushuang saw that as soon as Zhang Yunxian came in, he quickly turned around and locked the door.
"Please take a seat!" Cheng Wushuang pointed to the only chair in the room, and ordered Zhang Yunxian without question.
Zhang Yunxian was a little embarrassed, touched his nose, and stepped forward to sit down obediently.
"I thought I'd never get to see you again in my life. Cheng Wushuang rubbed his somewhat reddened eyes, and his voice was pitiful and a little distressing.
"We just met, girl, why are you like this?"
"How can it be a meeting in Pingshui?" Cheng Wushuang looked at him stubbornly, "You saved my life twice before and after!"
"Are you mistaken?" Zhang Yunxian scratched his head.
He did save Wushuang twice, but the first time he was a night man with a mask, and the second time from beginning to end, Cheng Wushuang was in a poisoned coma, no matter how he thought about it, it was impossible for him to reveal his identity.
The only time I met Cheng Wushuang was in 'Faxing Temple', when he accompanied Chen Xiaoyu to grab the first incense.
"Are you still planning to continue to hide it?Mr. Night Man!" Cheng Wushuang was a little angry, "I, Cheng Wushuang, am I really so untrustworthy in your heart?"
Zhang Yunxian was instantly dumbfounded, he couldn't figure it out, how did Cheng Wushuang recognize his identity?
"I've always wanted to find an opportunity to solemnly apologize to you and say thank you again!" Cheng Wushuang took a glass of warm water and gently placed it in front of Zhang Yunxian.
"Regarding the misfortune of your girlfriend Liu Xiaomei in our Cloud Palace, I sincerely feel sorry for her, I know that it is useless to say anything, there is a million in this card, not much, it is all my personal savings, you accept it, it will be my apology!"
Zhang Yunxian glanced down at the bank card handed over by Cheng Wushuang and exhaled. Since Liu Xiaomei can talk about this, it is meaningless for him to continue to deny it.
After thinking about it for a while, he calmly refused: "There is a wrong, there is a debtor, Xiaomei's matter, I should help her repay it, I have already asked for it, and I can't blame you for this matter, so I have no reason to accept this money!"
"Cloud Palace is my Cheng family's property, and if something like this happens, we can't escape the blame!" Cheng Wushuang insisted.
Zhang Yunxian suddenly had an idea, picked up the card and put it in Cheng Wushuang's palm, and said slowly: "If you really want to express your apologies and gratitude, then why don't you do me a small favor, okay?"
