97: The Li family joins forces with the Clean World Society
In Secret Realm No. 4399, within a valley.
Luo Chengan and his group were still exploring, searching for traces of the dragon egg.
Just now, he had once again seen some images through his Precognition Ability.
In the images, Lin Xingyu gave him a fruit.
After he ate the fruit, he soared to great heights... Luo Chengan really wanted that fruit, but he didn't dare to ask for it.
Who knew if asking for it would change the future?
This made his heart itch like a cat's paws.
With no other options, Luo Chengan could only wait in the Secret Realm.
If he received news, he would rush over at the fastest speed.
During this time, Luo Chengan had also tried to sense information about the dragon egg through his Precognition Ability, but ultimately found nothing.
It seemed the dragon egg was likely not destined for him.
His search for the dragon egg here was merely to pass the time.
"Buzz—"
Just then, Luo Chengan's wristband suddenly rang.
"It's finally here!"
Seeing that it was Lin Xingyu's call, his eyes lit up, and he quickly connected...
Outside the Secret Realm, Lin Xingyu looked at the instantly connected call, clearly stunned for a moment.
Could this guy have been waiting right next to it the whole time?
"Old Luo, I have a fruit here, do you want to eat it?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
"This fruit has side effects, after eating it..."
"It doesn't matter, I want to eat it!"
...Ending the call, Lin Xingyu put down his wristband.
This communication was exceptionally smooth.
He had only said the beginning, and Luo Chengan had already agreed and was rushing over.
With this guy around, they wouldn't need to go to the Wanding Chamber of Commerce.
They could just give him those Materials later and let him handle them.
Luo Chengan had a close relationship with the Wanding Chamber of Commerce and wouldn't let them suffer losses.
Future procurement could also be entrusted to him.
"Boss, let's go turn in the missions!"
Li Hongyang suggested.
Before entering the Secret Realm, they had accepted many missions to hunt mutated beasts.
There was a Xingluo Academy Base outside the Secret Realm where they could submit missions and exchange for points.
It would take some time for Luo Chengan to arrive, and as a 'roll king,' he didn't want to waste time.
"Right, let's go turn in the missions!"
Wang Ledian also agreed.
This time, he wanted to exchange for a new combat technique at the library, one suitable for a sword-and-shield soldier.
He didn't know how many points it would require, so it was better to prepare more.
"Let's go, to the Academy Base."
Lin Xingyu also didn't want to just wait there, so he and the others walked towards the Xingluo Academy Base...
Starfall City, Li Family construction site.
Inside a luxurious tent, a subordinate was reporting to the family head, Li Xuance.
"Marquis Bone-Eater has arrived?"
Li Xuance's face lit up with joy, his previous despondency completely gone.
During this time, they had been blocked in Starfall City by Marquis Lie Hu, and at this rate, they would eventually be worn down.
In desperation, he could only pay a huge price to invite a Marquis-level Expert from the Star Pavilion for support.
He had just received news that the reinforcements had arrived outside the city.
And that wasn't the only good news.
Not long ago, the World Purifying Society had secretly contacted him.
They hoped to join forces with the Li Family to ambush Marquis Lie Hu.
The other party proposed that both families contribute one Marquis Rank Expert.
Because Marquis Liehu and his wife were both high-level Evolvers, a single Marquis Rank Expert would be at a disadvantage against them.
Li Xuance wholeheartedly approved of this proposal.
But he made one request: the operation must be carried out in secret, with no contact between the personnel of both sides.
Furthermore, the cooperation would be for one time only, and thereafter, both sides would have no further dealings.
He didn't want to get too deeply involved with the World Purifying Society.
If it weren't for dire necessity, he wouldn't have agreed to join forces.
Now that reinforcements had arrived, the operation could begin!
Li Xuance stood up and issued an order:
"Secretly contact the World Purifying Society..."
...Outside Secret Realm No. 4399.
Xingluo Academy Base, laboratory.
"Failed again!"
Situ Jing irritably ran her fingers through her hair.
She had adjusted it countless times, yet there was still no progress.
During this time, a large amount of experimental Materials had been consumed.
Now, the remaining Materials were not enough for the next experiment.
Especially the Bloodline of mutated beasts with Dragon Clan Bloodline, her inventory had been completely depleted.
"Is there any progress on the Dragon Clan matter?"
She turned to look at the bald researcher beside her.
This person, dressed in a white lab coat, was Gongsun Ye, who had arrived here some time ago.
The Spiritual Energy Research Institute had sent him to investigate the Dragon Clan matter.
However, with Gongsun Ye's Rank 4 strength, he couldn't enter Secret Realm No. 4399.
In desperation, he could only send his subordinates into the Secret Realm and wait outside himself.
Due to the close cooperative relationship between the Spiritual Energy Research Institute and Starfall Academy, Gongsun Ye naturally took up residence at the Starfall Academy Base.
The Base had laboratories equipped for Academy mentors.
Gongsun Ye was quite pleased when he saw the laboratory.
He didn't know how long he would have to stay here, but with a laboratory, he could continue his previous research.
This way, he wouldn't waste time.
However, this joy didn't last long, as an uninvited guest arrived at the laboratory.
From then on, his nightmare began, and the hair on his body disappeared at a visible rate.
He had always been wary of Situ Jing, but he had still unknowingly fallen victim.
"No progress, the Federal Army has also found nothing, and the detection equipment hasn't discovered anything either!"
Hearing Situ Jing's inquiry, Gongsun Ye replied with a frown.
The Federal Army had already sent dozens of teams into the Secret Realm, but had found nothing so far.
It was said that they had deployed two more battle groups, intending to conduct a dragnet search in the Secret Realm.
He now only placed his hopes on the Federal Army, hoping they could find the dragon egg as soon as possible.
This way, he could also finish his mission early and get rid of this witch.
Just then, Classmate Xiao Jing walked in.
A clear voice followed:
"Master, I just received news that Lin Xingyu and his group have appeared at the Base."
"Lin Xingyu?"
Situ Jing's eyes lit up.
As the first-place winner of the freshman trial, Lin Xingyu was rewarded with a dragon eagle pet egg.
He must have hatched it by now!
It would be perfect to draw some blood for experimental Materials.
Thinking of this, she instructed Classmate Xiao Jing:
"Go call them over and tell them I have something to tell them!"
"Yes, Master!"
Classmate Xiao Jing accepted the order and left...
Mission Hall.
Lin Xingyu and the others had just submitted their missions and gained a large number of points.
"Let's go, Luo Chengan is already waiting at the entrance."
Lin Xingyu looked at the points on his wristband, very satisfied.
Now that he had enough points, he planned to go back and exchange for a movement technique.
More skills never hurt, it's always good to learn more.
Anyway, with the System to do the work, he only needed to read.
"Brother Yu, look over there, is that Classmate Xiao Jing?"
Wang Ledian pointed to a cylindrical robot not far away.
