Chapter 659: Chapter 658: The Beauty Knocks on the Door Seeking Dual Cultivation
The next day.
Xu Wendong carefully prepared a sandwich for Liu Shimei, which contained eggs, snake meat, and lettuce leaves.
Liu Shimei ate it with great relish.
She kept asking what kind of tender meat was inside.
Out of respect for the ingredients and to prevent Liu Shimei from spitting it out, he did not tell her it was snake meat.
"Look, look!"
As Xu Wendong was enjoying his delicious breakfast, Liu Shimei, her face full of disbelief, handed her phone to Xu Wendong. It displayed a news article.
The news was about Jiang Yuanbo, who had admitted his identity as a descendant of Wa Country nationals. He had been in Great Xia for years with the intent to steal secrets and rare resources.
Furthermore, he had also exposed some accomplices.
Among them was Deng Changhai, the head of the city planning bureau.
Deng Changhai was Jiang Yuanbo’s most reliable operative in Haicheng. He controlled all planning in Haicheng, which was why Jiang Yuanbo managed to become the city’s first deputy mayor.
Upon seeing this news,
Xu Wendong was shocked beyond words.
Because he had arranged to investigate Deng Changhai, including having the Haicheng Discipline Inspection Committee monitor him, and even Elder Fang had given him a task to find a way to remove Deng Changhai from office.
But no one had any evidence of Deng Changhai’s misconduct.
Because his life and work were too simple and pure.
Yet who would have thought?
He turned out to be Jiang Yuanbo’s man???
Xu Wendong sighed, "This time, the political scene in Haicheng truly needs a reshuffle!"
Liu Shimei smiled brightly, "If I’m not mistaken, you’ll surely rise further."
Xu Wendong had achieved a monumental feat.
Even though the world was unaware,
some higher-ups certainly knew about it.
In her view, Xu Wendong was highly probable to take Deng Changhai’s place.
Aside from this probability,
he might even be promoted to deputy mayor.
But Xu Wendong just showed a bitter smile and didn’t say much.
Because he had a premonition that his work in Haicheng might be coming to a close.
Although he hadn’t been in Haicheng long,
he had already improved its original pattern, made the sky bluer, and its sea clearer.
Just after breakfast,
the doorbell rang.
Liu Shimei, "I’ll get the door."
After opening the door,
a tall, graceful young woman in a light pink qipao dress, with stunning features, appeared before Liu Shimei.
Though Liu Shimei was also a rare beauty,
she felt a sense of self-consciousness in front of this woman.
Because the other had a mysterious and ethereal aura.
Like an Immortal untouched by the earthly world.
Liu Shimei politely asked, "May I ask who you’re looking for?"
Qingluan smiled, "Hello, is Xu Wendong living here?"
Xu Wendong, hearing the familiar voice, came over in slippers, "Sister Qingluan, why are you here? Come in, come in, please!" With that, he invited her inside.
Then he looked at Liu Shimei, and said, "Sis, this is my friend."
Liu Shimei forced a smile, "Well, since your friend is here, I won’t disturb you then!"
The arrival of this woman gave her a strong sense of crisis.
However,
she was a woman with a good sense of propriety, even if she didn’t like the other, she wouldn’t show it, nor would she cause a scene in front of Xu Wendong.
Because that would only backfire.
"You seem to be having a good life. How long have you been in Haicheng, and you’ve already got a sweetheart!" Qingluan lazily sat on the sofa, a smile with deeper meanings on her face.
Xu Wendong’s old face turned red, but he still poured her a glass of water, and said, "Sister Qingluan, you’ve come at the right time. If you hadn’t come, I would have had to go to the Capital City myself."
Qingluan, "What are you going to the Capital City for?"
Xu Wendong shrugged, "The corpse of the Eight-Forked Serpent is rich in Spiritual Energy. I was thinking of sending a few snake heads to the Dragon Court for everyone to taste and boost their strength."
He wasn’t lying about this.
When he obtained the corpse of the Eight-Forked Serpent, he had this idea.
Qingluan laughed, "I thought you wanted to return the sword."
"Ahem!" Xu Wendong cleared his throat, "It’s not that I don’t want to return it, but that it doesn’t want to go back at all!"
The Dragon Scale Sword had already recognized him as its master.
Even if he wished to return it to its original owner, it wouldn’t agree.
Of course,
Xu Wendong didn’t want to return the Dragon Scale Sword either, as it was extremely powerful, a perfect addition to his strength.
"I’m here for nothing much, just wanted to Dual Cultivate with you!" Qingluan smiled enchantingly, her captivating eyes seemingly speaking, making Xu Wendong’s heart itch.
After all, she was a classic beauty with a charm that touched the heart.
And she was a cultivator.
To Xu Wendong, she was truly tempting.
In plain terms, he wished to say yes.
It’s just...
He was never the proactive type in this regard!
Seeing Xu Wendong’s awkward expression, Qingluan snorted softly, teasing, "I don’t know what’s up with you. Clearly surrounded by beauties, but why so shy about this topic?"
Xu Wendong smiled and said nothing.
He didn’t know how to respond.
"Alright, alright, not teasing you anymore." Qingluan said, "I came to see you for something important."
Xu Wendong became a lot more serious.
Qingluan continued, "Last night, you slayed Wa Country’s Eight-Forked Serpent in front of the whole world. This act has enraged their high-ranking officials. Although they won’t openly cause us trouble, as far as I know, they’ve issued orders to send countless experts to kill you to avenge the Eight-Forked Serpent."
Upon hearing this, Xu Wendong displayed a disdainful smile, "Would I be afraid of them?"
Qingluan, "Your power is indeed impressive, but you shouldn’t underestimate Wa Country’s cultivators. As far as I know, they have powerful ninjas, samurais, and mysterious onmyojis among them."
"And as the old saying goes, open spears are easy to dodge, hidden arrows are hard to guard against. Especially when you’re in the open and the enemy is in the dark, this must be guarded against."
Xu Wendong slightly furrowed his brow, "You mean, Wa Country will soon ascertain my real identity?"
Qingluan sighed, "It’s not difficult!"
Although last night’s live broadcast didn’t expose Xu Wendong’s appearance, he was currently Great Xia’s strongest cultivator. If they wanted to find out, they certainly could.
Xu Wendong’s expression was grave.
His power indeed didn’t fear the little devils.
But their methods were exceptionally insidious, despicable, and saying they used every trick in the book wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
If they targeted his family and friends, they would certainly make a move on them.
If it really came to that, even if he had earth-shattering methods, it would be useless.
Thinking of this,
a faint, meaningful smile appeared on Xu Wendong’s serious face.
This smile made Qingluan full of disdain, "Why do you look like a pervert when you smile?"
