Chapter 471 - The Beast that Devours Humans
Chapter 471: The Beast that Devours Humans
When Li An’an walked out of the room, she already had a card in her hand.
That was Princess Lotus’ card.
The card not only had the princess’s personal phone number, handwritten letter, and WeChat read.
It also had the princess’s name, Zheng Manjing.
This was Princess Lotus’s maiden name.
“It seems like we’ve really gone overboard!” Li An’an lowered her head.
The major of the Blackguard was naturally aware of the customs and taboos of the various countries.
This was a basic skill!
The blackguard was naturally law-abiding when enforcing the law.
According to the requirements of the cabinet and the rules of the Supreme Court, the Blackguard had to obtain the consent of the host country to enforce the law across countries. In the process of enforcing the law, they had to respect the religious beliefs and customs of the host country.
Therefore, Li An’an knew that Ceylon was a Buddhist country and was very conservative.
Even in this era, Ceylon people followed the ancient traditional values, which was why Ceylon was still a polygamous country.
In Ceylon’s law, the decrees regarding marriage still retained the seven or three orders from 300 years ago.
Divorce was big news in Ceylon.
As for the names of female members of the royal family in Ceylon, other than their parents and brothers, they would usually not tell outsiders.
Holding the card in her hand, Li An’an put on an interesting expression.
“Princess Lotus, do you really like Little Ping’an?” She was a little nervous.
One had to know that before she came, she had a game mentality.
That was why she deliberately played the role of a fanatic.
After all, a fanatic being liked by a princess of a country was a plot that could only be found in novels.
Reality would not happen.
Who would have thought that a fantasy would be reflected in reality now?
Li An’an was a little embarrassed.
At this moment, her phone rang again.
A message came from the office of the Siamese embassy. The Siamese princess had invited her to meet.
“Should I go?” thought Li Anan.
After hesitating for a while, she still decided to go.
“It’s this crazy person?”
“It’s better not to pretend.”
“In case something unexpected happens, I’ll just go and meet him honestly.”
…
Lotus Princess Zheng Manjing watched as Young Master X, who claimed to be Ling Ping’an, left the room.
She heaved a sigh of relief.
Then, she turned around and looked at the two attendants behind her.
“What do the two of you think?” she asked softly.
“Your Highness…” One of the attendants who had been wearing a muslin hat raised his head and revealed an old face.
After gasping slightly, he said, “In my opinion… this young master has a divine treasure within him, and it can be said to be unfathomable…”
He was the only surviving lieutenant general in the Kingdom of Ceylon.
He was also the guardian of the previous generation of Ceylon’s Buddha Bones.
Lang Cailin!
As a lieutenant general, although he had both qi and blood failure, he had already entered the end of his life. It was all thanks to the nourishment of the Buddha bone relics that he was able to barely survive until now.
This was Ceylon’s helplessness.
The population of the Kingdom of Ceylon was still too small.
The kingdom only had a population of 60 million, so even if the country continued to encourage fertility, the annual growth rate of newborns was only around a million.
With a population of 60 million, being able to provide for a lieutenant general was already the result of the country’s strength and luck!
After all, Ceylon was not land of Qin.
Just the divine system alone had three people.
Ceylon was also not the Federal Empire. Just the metropolitan territory alone had a population of more than one billion.
Adding in the independent kingdom overseas, the total population was over two billion.
For this reason, even though they knew that Lang Cailin was already at the end of his tether, he was already so weak that he had already exhausted all of his reserves.
But Ceylon still had to spare no effort to keep him, the last powerhouse.
Even if it was just a pretense, it was better than nothing.
Lang Cailin panted and slowly sat down.
The sweat on his forehead kept dripping down, and his face was pale.
But he still insisted on speaking, “I dared to use psionic power to spy on him just now…”
“I felt the surging psionic power that was as deep as the ocean.”
“This is the indisputable proof of Immortals and gods!”
“Moreover, there are vague shadows around him, as if there is an infinite power…”
“Presumably, that is the guard who protects him!”
“The guard of Gods and Buddhas are very powerful!”
Speaking up to this point, Lang Cailin looked at Princess Lotus and lowered his head slightly. “Therefore, in my opinion…”
“Princess, you must make a quick decision!”
“This opportunity can not be missed again!”
Following a nod, Princess Lotus nodded and then looked at another person, the current honored guest of the Kingdom of Ceylon, Chi Zhong.
Chi Zhong slowly said, “Your Highness…”
“Just now, I used the ‘echo of the spirit world’ to peep around that young master…”
“All the echoes were like stones sinking into the ocean!”
When Princess Lotus heard this, she no longer had any doubts.
Because this guest was not a human, but a foreign species that was worshipped by Ceylon after a sperm whale near Ceylon awakened its intelligence.
Its strength was not considered to be top-notch, but it only had the cultivation of a brigadier general.
Because its main body was a sperm whale, it had a special divine ability.
It called itself the Spirit World Echo.
It was a spell that continuously sent out invisible and inaudible waves of psionic power to the surroundings.
Then, it would retrieve the waves and determine the opponent’s real or fake magic art.
It was precisely because of this guest elder’s magical ability that, although Ceylon was attacked on three sides, it was always able to predict the enemy’s attack in advance.
From there, it would issue a warning in advance and send a request for help to the Indian fleet of the Federal Empire and the Donglai Air Force Base.
As a result, the enemy did not dare to really invade.
“So…”
“Young Master Ling is young Master X!”
“Right?” asked Princess Lotus.
As the two ministers bowed, Princess Lotus gently rubbed the gemstone in her hand. She kissed her lips and said, “Since that’s the case, then activate the highest level of security protection!”
“Submit a request to the Blackguard for assistance!”
“Citing the safety treaty between Great Xia and our country, request the Blackguard to send a general to protect me and the embassy!”
The biggest danger of this fellowship did not come from Ceylon’s former enemies.
It was very likely that they would be Ceylon’s former friends like Siam, Funan, and Lan Fang.
The reason was very simple.
More often than not, the best way to win a competition was to eliminate competitors.
Princess Lotus had already encountered seven waves of assassins since she entered the country.
The reason was simply that some people felt that she might be a threat.
In order to prevent her from becoming the future Empress of the Federal Empire of Xia, the assassins came one after another.
Now, all the countries knew that the true benefit of this fellowship was not the Empress.
Instead, it was an extremely high-ranking guest.
Everyone had already adjusted their targets.
The moment the countries knew that she, the Little Princess of Ceylon, had actually taken the lead.
Then, all the countries would immediately understand.
They had to destroy Ceylon before it truly established a relationship with that Young Master X.
They could use any means.
In fact, the ones who attacked might not only be Ceylon’s enemies and friends.
Those countries that had nothing to do with Ceylon.
Even the transcendent being families in the metropolitan territory of the Federal Empire of Xia could disregard their reputation and launch an attack.
Ceylon, which was small country, naturally could not stop these snooping and coveting.
They could only ask for help from the Blackguard.
Even if she did this, it would be the same as putting herself under everyone’s spotlight. Asking for help would be the same as raising a torch in the dark and telling others where she was.
However, Princess Lotus did not have a choice.
She had to do this, and that was all she could do.
Otherwise, she might not be able to live to see Tomorrow’s sun!
In the transcendent being’s world, there were countless strange and terrifying magic art.
The Yan Sheng Sect wasn’t the only sect that could curse people to death.
…
Princess Lotus’ actions were just as she had predicted.
From the very beginning, she had attracted the attention of countless people.
“Princess Ceylon suddenly applied for special protection !”
The eyes of the various countries were immediately firmly attached to her.
This was the three hundred taels of silver in this place. It was equivalent to admitting it without beating her up!
“What did the Ceylon people do?”
Those who reacted quickly immediately began to investigate.
After that, an endless stream of intelligence was gathered.
The small Ceylon country was unable to block the infiltration of others to begin with, let alone a large group of fellows who used the excuse of being ‘allies’ to pry into the truth?
In less than half an hour, pieces of intelligence appeared in the hands of the various countries’ dignitaries.
All the powerful families in the imperial capital had also obtained first-hand information.
“As expected, it can be like this?” After receiving the information, everyone’s first reaction wasn’t what Princess Lotus had expected. They were about to arrange an assassin to kill her.
On the contrary, they were pleasantly surprised!
“Young Master X likes beauties?!”
“This is great!”
Many people cheered!
To the various countries and families, their biggest problem was that they had no clue!
The Blackguard had locked down all information about Young Master X.
If they wanted to check it, even the Blackguard’s own active-duty general had to submit an application and be approved by the commander-in-chief.
Moreover, this application report could not be casually typed.
A concrete and feasible reason had to be given. Otherwise, if Zhang Hui could not even pass the test, it would be rejected.
This was a headache because people found that young master x was hidden in the fog.
Moreover, according to everyone’s observation and summary of all the people who had come into contact with him.
People realized a terrible thing: As long as he did not want to, even if he stood in front of him, even if he held the cat and wore the iconic clothes and pants.
But, everyone would be deceived by his great power.
They were all like fools. Even if he had talked to them, they would not think of him.
And they would not think that they had seen him.
In other words, if he did not want to, even if they broke their heads, they would not be able to say anything.
There was no place to lick if they wanted to.
And now..
It was comfortable!
It was better to have a solution than to have no solution.
Moreover, even the people of Ceylon had succeeded in using this method.
It was just too great!
Everyone simply didn’t have the time and energy to pay attention to Ceylon.
Because it was too late.
One by one, they grabbed their phones and dialed the numbers to specific people.
“Miss?”
“His Highness?”
“It’s like this…”
“Young Master X is a real man of the generation, a real hero!”
“So… Miss/His Highness… you can be a little more daring…”
“It’s just you, you can go to the mountain!”
“Yes!”
“Dress up nicely!”
Some smart people even remembered the incident at Deer Hall.
They immediately started to organize all kinds of dances.
Thus, buses set off for the capital, pulling in celebrities and traffic.
These celebrities and traffic were required to dress up beautifully and sexily.
They had to make as much noise as possible in an attempt to attract that person’s attention.
As for the expenses?
Wasn’t it just money?
There were people who were bitterly longing for opportunities.
Those who fantasized that they would be like Zhang Hui, Song Shihui, and Situ He, and obtain fortuitous encounters.
What was money?
Wasn’t it just paper?
How much do you want? I’ll send it over for you!
Money wasn’t a problem.
Whether or not young master x would appear was the problem!
Thus, the deer cry villa suddenly became lively.
One by one, famous big stars appeared in the villa.
Their appearance naturally caused many participants to cry out in surprise.
The entire villa then became as lively as the new year.
…
At 5:00 p, Li An’an walked out from another princess’s reception room.
After Princess Ceylon, she became obedient.
She didn’t pretend to be aloof, nor did she act as a madman.
However, she still received the business cards of the seven princesses.
This meant that the princesses were willing to interact with Ling Ping’an, and there was a chance for them to develop further.
“Is Little Ping’an so popular?” She didn’t quite understand and found it hard to understand.
“Could it be…”
She thought, “These princesses already know of my existence?”
There could only be one explanation.
The Koi of the Blackguard.
The legendary human-shaped lucky machine and the wishing machine.
The reincarnation of the boy under the Guanyin Bodhisattva.
To turn misfortune into good fortune, to turn misfortune into good fortune… These were just the basics.
Moreover, there were rumors that her koi even had the ability to defy the heavens and change one’s fate.
Although she tried her best to deny it, it was always a coincidence that made people believe it more and more.
Especially after the trip to Nanzhou, this matter was basically set in stone.
She had bumped into a precious treasure like the Nine Cauldrons when she went out!
Even the commander-in-chief was alarmed.
Even Li An’an herself doubted whether she was really the reincarnation of the boy under Guanyin Bodhisattva.
But after thinking for a long time, she still didn’t realize that she was.
She even tried to read the Buddhist scriptures, but the results were painful.
So, she was 100% sure that she wasn’t some boy under Guanyin Bodhisattva.
She also didn’t have the ability of a koi carp.
But three people became a tiger, she couldn’t do anything about it.
Now, the attitude of these princesses made her wake up.
“So… I’m really from a wealthy family!” She suddenly became happy.
She was no longer worried.
Since the princesses were all here to become her, the nephew-in-law of the koi fish in the world.
What was there to be afraid of?
She held the business cards in her hand and chuckled.
So she took out her phone and took a photo of these business cards. Then, she sent them to Little Ping’an with a message: Little Ping’an, I’m going all out today!
…
Ling Ping’an stood in front of the window and looked downstairs. A bus slowly stopped at a building across the street.
A few celebrities walked down from the bus.
A lot of people were screaming.
“It’s xinzi!”
“Look at Mommy, xinzi, look at Mommy!”
“Ah… Brother Bao…”
“Brother Bao, you’re here too!”
Ling pingan shook his head.
From the shouts, he understood something.
The people who were here were all the top celebrities that he disliked the most.
They were either people who had become famous or people who were covered in dirt and had no limits.
“There’s no one left in the entertainment industry!”He sighed.
In the current entertainment industry, there were only a few celebrities who had real talent.
The others were all useless, and they even lip-synced each other’s lines and voiced them in the end.
As for the so-called singing and dancing, they were all car accidents.
Those who didn’t have car accidents were basically lip-syncing!
At this moment, his phone rang.
He picked it up and saw that it was his aunt.
A bunch of business cards.
Ling Ping’an blinked and was about to type a question mark.
Then he saw his aunt’s message, “Little Ping’an, I’m going all out today!”
Confused, he replied, “Aunt, what do you want to do?”
Unfortunately, there was no reply.
…
Li An’an had just sent the message.
When she looked up, she saw a figure appear from the elevator.
Li Anan looked at it and her brows slowly furrowed.
“Lu Fei’er!”
“Why is she here?”
Li Anan naturally recognized the person.
It was Lu Fei’er!
Among the younger generation of the Blackguard, there were only a few people who could be on par with her.
It was different from the Koi label she carried.
This person was a true expert.
She was only twenty-three years old and already had the strength of a major.
When she was 23, she had just graduated.
More importantly, this person had the status of a diva in the entertainment industry.
At 23, she had already received all the honors that all pop singers could get: Best Singer, Best Album of the year…
She was simply a monster!
She watched as Lu Fei’er lightly twisted her waist and walked past her.
Li Anan couldn’t help but turn around to take a look.
Coincidentally, the other person also turned around to take a look.
The two pairs of eyes met.
“This young master…” Lu Fei’er was indeed worthy of being the diva of the music industry. Her voice was like the orchid in the Sky Valley, which was very pleasant. She smiled lightly and said, “We seem to have met somewhere before, right?”
It was a very old-fashioned but very effective method.
It was also a very simple method.
Of course, Li An’an understood.
How could she not know about this kind of flirting method that was played rotten on television?
In the past, she would almost meet a boring guy every day who would use such old-fashioned methods to strike up a conversation with her.
It was just that she ignored it.
Now, it was used by a delicate young lady.
For some reason, Li An’an did not have any thoughts of disgust.
Instead, she was very happy.
She smiled and said, “Is that so?”
…
Ling Ping’an looked at his phone, which had been more than ten minutes.
But his aunt still didn’t answer him.
This made the uneasiness in his heart magnify.
He knew his aunt.
In order for him to succeed in the blind date, he knew that his aunt would do anything!
“So…”
“What did my aunt do behind my back?” He asked doubtfully.
And when he was worried, his eyes seemed to itch again.
Hurriedly, he reached out and rubbed his eyes.
Suddenly, he turned his head.
He looked out of the window at the traffic coming down from the bus.
His nose moved.
“There’s a fragrance!” he said.
The tears at the corner of his mouth seemed to be about to flow out uncontrollably.
Ling Ping’an immediately reacted.
“What’s wrong with me?”
He looked at the few streams of water that were walking down through the gaps in the curtains.
“Why do I feel that those streams of water are very delicious?”
“They give me the feeling that they are like peanuts, very suitable to be used with vegetables and wine… the taste is very fragrant!”
“Bah! Bah! Bah!”
He shook his head. “How could I have such a ridiculous idea!”
What was that?
No way!
Their meat was smelly!
No!
“I am a human… What devours humans is a beast!”
