Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 1028: Chapter 494: Good Brothers

Seeing that Li Ye, along with two others, didn’t erupt in any conflict but left together in the off-road vehicle.

Some official strong ones watching from afar.

Either sighed in relief or were extremely disappointed.

“Well, at least they didn’t start fighting.”

“Boring, I want to see rivers of blood!”

“What kind of Lezi people are you?”

“Just wanted to see the Champion at a loss, hehe…”

Soon after, they saw the Jing Family’s vehicles.

A member of the Jing Family hurriedly ran over to ask.

“Excuse me, has the Ninth Generation Champion arrived?”

The Ninth Generation Champion seems to have a blood relation with the Jing Family, which is somewhat known internally to the officials.

As a result, when the Night General became the Ninth Generation Champion, the people of the Three Branches of the Jing Family were extremely excited.

Those who don’t know might even think the Ninth Champion’s last name is Jing.

“Unfortunately, they just left not long ago.” A squad from Gu Yue said with a smile: “It might not be the best time to recognize relatives right now.”

“You are overthinking.” The Jing Family member scratched his head: “If Lord Ye doesn’t like it, we naturally won’t mention it. We just want to find him and celebrate a bit. Our Brother Lin even arranged a small banquet for him, planning to invite a few friends to gather.”

Brother Lin, naturally, is Li Ye’s good brother Jing Lin.

The official strong ones nodded with a smile, as it wasn’t a big deal.

The Spiritual Ability Family also wants to show off, even if not acknowledging the relatives, they want to brag a bit. A Champion emerged from their Jing Family lineage. This can’t just be recorded in a genealogy. It’s understandable.

“Then you came late.” Gu Yue smiled and said.

“Nothing could be done, we just learned that Little Mad King also returned to Giant City, so we went to try inviting her first. But alas, we didn’t meet her…” the Jing Family member said.

Little Mad King?

Well, due to the suspicious curse, many have misunderstandings about her. Especially after Li Ye acted with her, the misunderstanding and suspicion deepened.

Gu Yue and others were stunned for a moment, then asked: “Do you also want to invite Doll and Cheese?”

The Jing Family member remained silent for a moment, then grinned: “Hehe…”

This earned Gu Yue and others’ respect.

They suddenly understood, this wasn’t a mere celebration feast, it was clearly a trap.

This Jing Family are the real Lezi people. Aren’t they afraid of getting blood on their faces?

“Isn’t Lord Jing Lin the Ninth Generation Champion’s good brother?” Gu Yue asked in a low voice.

“A good brother indeed. But during tough times, our whole family was gnawing on pickles…” the Jing Family member grumbled: “He’s too eager to see blood flowing like a river.”

“Wow, that is a ‘good brother’ indeed!” The official strong ones mocked Jing Lin, and then asked if they could join in the fun.

…

Meanwhile, Li Ye was driving back to the family apartment.

The atmosphere in the car was somewhat odd, Cheese sat in the back seat, turning to look out at the scenery. Having stayed outside Giant City for too long, she’d seen nothing but wilderness or Ten Thousand Dragon Lake, and hadn’t seen such prosperous views for a long time. Still preferred watching this sea of lights… It made her nostalgic.

Of course, also a way to distract herself.

While Doll was sitting in the front passenger seat.

She occasionally peeked back at Cheese, seemingly assessing her loose hoodie, calculating what’s underneath that hoodie…

Then she glanced at her frog doll suit, pondering something. For unknown reasons, she seemed somewhat downcast.

In this atmosphere, Li Ye had to ask how his little sister, Li Yunyan, was doing lately.

“Xiao Yan… she’s been busy crafting the Heavenly Soldier Furnace lately. Some comrades provide materials, asking her to help craft Heavenly Soldiers.” Doll responded: “Her luck is occasionally good, making her quite popular. Maybe due to the frequent crafting, her Spiritual Power Strength has seen some improvement.”

“Perhaps, the Imitative Heavenly Soldiers we used at the front lines were crafted by Xiao Yan.” Cheese chimed in.

The three chatted deliberately, heading towards the family apartment.

Then… there was inexplicably an additional person in the car.

During the drive, a Black Shadow suddenly flashed in front of Li Ye.

Then, a figure appeared sitting in the back seat.

Cheese and Doll both stared in shock at the newcomer.

Doll widened her eyes, gesturing the window’s size incredulously, asking: “How did you squeeze in here?”

“With your height and build, you didn’t get stuck at the door…” Cheese was also awestruck, it was her first time seeing such a way of getting into the car.

Li Ye couldn’t help but sarcastically remark: “Couldn’t you let me stop the car and then get in?”

This bizarre way of entering the vehicle naturally was the long-unseen Little Mad King.

Her sudden appearance surprised both Cheese and Doll immensely.

A certain doubt arose in their minds.

Previously, the Immortal Palace Battlefield just ended, and the officials acquired a list of future strong individuals.

Among them, some strong individuals came from the Forbidden Zone. The officials then prepared an assassination list. As the strongest Assassin Master among the captains of the Border City.

Little Mad King also received part of the list, and infiltrated the Forbidden Zone to begin assassinations.

To avoid drawing attention from the Forbidden Zone, she prioritized eliminating those unrecognized and yet to rise Forbidden Zone talents with certain ‘accidental’ performances.

Li Ye was away at Ten Thousand Dragon Lake for about a month.

During this time, she almost completed all missions, found and assassinated several Forbidden Zone talents.

Returned to Giant City yesterday, earlier than Li Ye. Upon learning Li Ye returned, as a teammate, she came to greet him.
