244: Dog licking dog

Gao Zhiman slowly approached, her soft, boneless slender waist pressing against Chen Tianming's body.

A beauty in his arms, the fragrance subtly revealed hidden affections.

"But I want my reward now! No reward, no motivation to do the task!"

The police superintendent, usually so proud and unyielding, became like a lively, obedient rabbit when she leaned into Chen Tianming's embrace.

She even deliberately leaned her head over to act spoiled.

Chen Tianming pinched her soft, fair cheek.

"Aren't you afraid you won't be able to get out of bed the day after you get your reward?"

Gao Zhiman's shy expression, a mix of refusal and welcome, was the best answer.

Chen Tianming directly embraced the beauty, and the two lay gently on the grass. The large tree behind them swayed gently, dropping many leaves with the wind.

Amidst the spring greenery, only the nightingale's sudden cries and melodious low chirps intertwined.

...

Gao Zhiman indeed did not disappoint Chen Tianming.

Her efficiency even made Seventeen give her a thumbs up.

However, Seventeen would not easily make that gesture.

The next day, Gao Zhiman, leaning on the staircase, delivered the report to Chen Tianming.

Han Lei's whereabouts were easy to investigate, and his actions were mostly public.

But trying to find out who he had recently contacted presented some resistance.

Han Lei seemed to be deliberately avoiding investigation, acting mysterious lately.

However, no matter how careful he was, he could not escape Gao Zhiman's charming gaze.

Whoosh!

Gao Zhiman handed Chen Tianming a stack of photos.

"Husband, look at this set of photos, it's very strange!"

In the photos, Han Lei was secretly trading with some jewelers.

Chen Tianming took them, frowning slightly.

"Han Lei is at his wit's end, desperately digging for Spirit Stones, just to trade with such small fries?"

Gao Zhiman nodded, her beautiful hair trembling slightly.

"And he even dared to touch the Mi family's mine, so he must have been pushed to his wit's end."

Chen Tianming had already anticipated these things.

According to Chen Tianming's speculation, Han Lei was now trying to curry favor with big shots everywhere, using Spirit Stones to improve his strength, and at the same time rapidly selling off mines to gather a large amount of capital.

But clearly, Han Lei did not do so.

Chen Tianming put down the photos and quickly asked.

"What about Han Lei's account? Let me see how much capital he has collected!"

Gao Zhiman pulled out a tablet from under her uniform and showed it to Chen Tianming.

Chen Tianming raised an eyebrow.

"Where did you pull that out from? What extraordinary talent!"

Gao Zhiman's face flushed, and only then did Chen Tianming shift his gaze to the tablet.

"Han Lei's account hasn't increased by a single cent?"

Chen Tianming's eyes shifted slightly, sensing something amiss.

"No... this situation isn't right, I need to go to Han Lei's place myself!"

Even if the other party was a Qi Luck Child, Chen Tianming was not afraid in the slightest.

It was as if Han Lei's territory was his own.

Facts proved that Chen Tianming also had this ability, effortlessly sneaking into the mine.

Under the huge mine shaft, machinery rubbed.

Occasionally, a trace of spiritual energy floated out from the mine shaft.

Chen Tianming narrowed his eyes and carefully investigated, then suddenly opened his eyes, having already seen through everything in his heart.

It turned out that within the Mi family's mine, there were Spirit Stones containing spiritual energy.

Although the spiritual energy in the mine was less than one-tenth of Chen Tianming's mansion.

But for a rogue cultivator Qi Luck Child like Han Lei, encountering a Spirit Stone mine was a huge stroke of luck.

Chen Tianming fully released his spiritual power and searched deeper along the mine vein.

Soon, the remaining spiritual power attracted Chen Tianming to the depths of the mine.

There were many people here, and machinery roared.

A strange stone, emitting a dark glow, floated anti-gravity-like on the mine's rock formation.

Every inch the machine dug, that strange stone would shatter a millimeter.

Chen Tianming couldn't help but sigh.

"What a waste! Don't they know that forcibly excavating with external force will damage the Spirit Stone's spiritual power?"

Just as Chen Tianming was secretly thinking that Han Lei was an idiot.

Suddenly, Han Lei's voice echoed in the mine.

"Be careful! Are you trying to die?!"

The Qi Luck Child, skilled in appraisal, approached the obscure strange stone and suddenly spread his hands, activating his cultivation technique.

It was as if a black dragon was drawing water from his palms, absorbing all the spiritual energy from the snack bit by bit into his hands.

The consumption of the obscure Spirit Stone immediately decreased by a few points.

But strangely, he did not completely absorb that Spirit Stone.

Chen Tianming was not in a hurry, carefully hiding his spiritual power, silently waiting.

Sure enough, Han Lei then became arrogant, starting to show off to the operating workers.

"All of you be careful! This is a divine object, a celestial grade, to honor the immortal lord!"

"If you displease the immortal lord, all of you will die!"

The workers were so scared that cold sweat streamed down their faces, and their bodies trembled.

The worker operating the excavator didn't even dare to move his hands.

Han Lei saw this and shouted loudly again.

"What are you doing? Are we eating without working? Efficiency, pay more attention to efficiency!"

Seeing his oppressive behavior towards the workers, he resembled the faces of certain capitalists.

Chen Tianming felt a wave of disgust and contempt in his heart, but he couldn't help but secretly scheme.

"Immortal lord, what new opportunity does Han Lei have to change his fate?"

Every Qi Luck Child should not be underestimated.

Chen Tianming personally kept an eye on Han Lei until he returned to the Mi family's luxurious mansion.

If he was unhappy, the Mi family's servants had to kneel to remove his slippers and change his clothes.

And Han Lei, like a pervert, seemed excited by exposing his body in front of the servants.

Just then, a jade token on Han Lei's table lit up.

Immediately after, a low, dark voice came from inside the room.

"How are things going?"

As the voice emerged, Chen Tianming couldn't help but clench his jaw.

The message from the jade pendant seemed somewhat familiar.

It felt like Lei Li's voice, but with some changes.

Before, Lei Li's voice sounded domineering and hypocritical, even pretending to be righteous.

But now, although the voice was very similar, his speech was sinister and terrifying, completely different from before.

Just as Chen Tianming was thinking, his phone vibrated subtly.

He picked it up and saw a message from Seventeen in Nanjing.

"Master! Lei Li is gone!"

Then, a wild laugh came from inside the jade pendant.

"Hahahahaha! Once I absorb this dark-attributed Spirit Stone, my Demonic Absorption Dao Art will reach the minor completion stage. By then, Chen Tianming will be no match for me!"

Chen Tianming immediately confirmed that the person controlling the jade pendant was Lei Li.

He hadn't expected that Han Lei and Lei Li would actually meet!

It was truly a case of one dog licking another, not caring about the stench!

At this moment, Han Lei, like a sycophant, knelt on one knee and offered the dark-attributed Spirit Stone he had excavated with both hands.

"The Spirit Stone is in hand! Senior Immortal! Can you impart the cultivation method to me? I will surely join you in slaying Chen Tianming!"

"Coupled with my appraisal technique, Senior, if you and I join forces, we can dominate the Southern Border Demon Capital within an inch!"

Inside the jade pendant, Lei Li was silent for a moment.

"I can give it to you, but that fortune teller you introduced me to last time, he also has many treasures. Bring them all to me as an offering, and I will impart the immortal cultivation method to you!"
