Chapter 132: Are you He Qingqing?
On the morning of the day after the white light incident, the inn where Heavenly Profound Gate was staying was already packed with people.
Yesterday, under the call of Xia Donghua, the son of the Sect Leader of Heavenly Profound Gate, the cultivators of Baiwa City formed an alliance.
Naturally, the leader of this alliance was Xia Donghua himself.
Xia Donghua might not be the strongest in terms of power among everyone, but his background was definitely the most substantial among the human cultivators in Baiwa City.
After the humans formed an alliance, the demon races from outside Baiwa City also formed their own alliance.
After all, Baiwa City is on the border between the Wu Kingdom and the Southern Demon Realm, so there are quite a few demon cultivators seeking treasures here.
However, the demons in Baiwa City have no sense of kinship with the demons from the outside world.
For the residents of Baiwa City, whether you are human or demon, you are still an outsider.
Xia Donghua was eloquently distributing tasks in the inn, asking everyone to gather information.
One of the tasks was that Xia Donghua planned to lead a group to attack the golden-bodied toad in the temple of Baiwa City.
Although the golden-bodied toad was at a high cultivation stage, probably at the later stage of Dragon Gate Realm.
But with so many people and treasures, if everyone attacks the golden-bodied toad together, there’s still a chance to win.
Even if they can’t defeat the golden-bodied toad, they still plan to occupy the county government office of Baiwa City.
Anyway, in Xia Donghua’s view, these two places play crucial roles in Baiwa City and can serve as breakthrough points.
However, the other cultivators in the alliance were very hesitant.
Whether it’s the golden-bodied toad in the temple or the wolf in the county government office and its old dog constables, none of them are pushovers.
Even if we could kill them, there would definitely be significant casualties.
If others die, it doesn’t matter much, but what if I die?
Thus, in this so-called Human Alliance meeting, there wasn’t much substantial progress. Everyone was just making small talk.
Sitting on the stool, Qingwan yawned. Qingwan took out a jade token, infused it with spiritual energy, and started writing words on it.
Meanwhile, Xu Ming, who was meditating with his eyes closed inside the inn, suddenly felt the jade token in his bosom getting warm.
But Xu Ming didn’t care.
Xu Ming meditates for the duration of one incense stick every morning, which he calls “clearing the mind,” benefiting the state of mind greatly.
Then, Xu Ming felt the jade token getting even warmer, and it seemed to vibrate slightly.
It was about time, so Xu Ming slowly opened his eyes and took out the jade token.
As soon as he took it out, a string of words popped out:
“What are you doing?”
“Why didn’t you attend today’s Human Alliance meeting?”
“Are you still sleeping?”
“Big lazy bug, wake up! Wake up! The early bird catches the worm!”
“Aren’t martial artists supposed to be the most disciplined?”
“Are you deliberately ignoring me? I’ll count down from three, if you don’t reply through the jade token, I’ll get angry.”
“Three…two…”
“Reply to me! This girl will give you one last chance, otherwise, I’m really going to get mad!”
Looking at the words appearing on the jade token, Xu Ming smiled and injected spiritual energy into the jade token, replying: “Sorry, I was meditating and didn’t notice.”
After replying, when Xu Ming was about to put the jade token down, it warmed up again, and the other side replied instantly: “Oh, sorry sorry, I thought you were sleeping. Did I disturb you?”
Xu Ming: “No.”
Qingwan: “That’s good~”
Qingwan: “Are you going to participate in the alliance meeting?”
Xu Ming: “Let it be. Even if I go, it won’t be of much use.”
Xu Ming: “By the way, is Miss He available today?”
Qingwan blinked her eyes: “Yes, what’s up?”
Xu Ming: “There’s something I want to ask Miss He for help with.”
Qingwan: “Of course no problem. Should I come find you, or should you come find me?”
Just as Xu Ming was about to send a message, Qingwan’s text came through the jade token.
Qingwan: “I’ll come find you now. Wait a moment, it’s decided.”
Xu Ming: “…”
Xu Ming got out of bed and woke up the Big White Goose sleeping on the table.
After washing up briefly, Xu Ming went downstairs, ordered some wine and dishes, and let Xiao Bai fly to call the two disciples of White Deer Academy.
Qingwan arrived before the two disciples of White Deer Academy.
Walking into the inn, Qingwan spotted Xu Ming and walked over with long legs under her skirt.
“Speak up, what is it that requires this girl’s help?” Qingwan sat in front of Xu Ming and smiled.
It seems like Xu Ming asking her for help made her very happy.
“Miss He, don’t rush. There are still two friends who haven’t arrived. When those two friends arrive, I’ll tell you.” Xu Ming poured a cup of wine for He Qingqing.
“Alright.” Qingwan pouted, “So mysterious.”
Faced with the girl’s complaints, Xu Ming just smiled.
Not long after, the Big White Goose brought Yu Wen Xi and Miao Feng to the Tongfu Inn.
“Brother Ye.”
Yu Wen Xi and Miao Feng bowed to Xu Ming.
When Yu Wen Xi and Miao Feng saw the woman sitting opposite Xu Ming, they were also surprised.
Who is this young lady? How beautiful she is!
“Let me introduce you.” Xu Ming stood up, “These two are the gentlemen of White Deer Academy —— Yu Wen Xi, Miao Feng. This is Miss He Qingqing from Heavenly Profound Gate.”
“Greetings, miss.” Yu Wen Xi and Miao Feng bowed to Qingwan.
“Greetings to both of you.” Qingwan performed a kowtow.
Miao Feng glanced at Yu Wen Xi, as if saying, “Little buddy, I kind of understand why you’ve been thinking about He Qingqing all the time. It turns out Miss He has grown so stunningly beautiful.”
Yu Wen Xi frowned, looking completely innocent.
What?
Are you He Qingqing?
Although I haven’t seen He Qingqing for a year, she couldn’t have changed this much, right?
Though it’s not polite to say this, but He Qingqing isn’t nearly as beautiful as you…
