Chapter 429
Interesting.
Someone was actually counting her location and life and death.
And, in this Ancient Martial World too.
Ying Zigui’s eyes narrowed even tighter as she let out a light laugh.
Even if her divine calculation ability had not yet returned to its peak, not everyone could calculate her.
Ying Zidian was still leaning back in her recliner, looking at the stars, very relaxed, not doing anything.
Since someone wanted to calculate her so much, she would let them do it.
**
The Xie family.
The moment the nine coins stopped, it meant that the result of the trigram was about to come out.
Both Madam Xie and Xie Feng inevitably tensed up, their eyes locked on the coins without moving.
The Grand Elder’s expression remained calm and collected.
He raised his hand and took the first coin from mid-air.
And just as the Grand Elder was about to take the second copper coin, his face suddenly turned white.
“Poof–”
A mouthful of heart blood, just spurted out, dripping and spilling onto the ground.
It was shocking to the eyes.
Xie Feng’s complexion changed greatly and he hurriedly stepped forward, “Grand Elder?!”
The Grand Elder had ancient martial arts training, how could he still vomit blood?
In the past, the Grand Elder had counted things bigger than the search for directions, and this situation had never occurred before.
Madam Xie was also shocked and trembled, “Grand Elder, you are ……”
“Sure enough.” The Grand Elder sat in his chair, his face still pale, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with paper and frowned, “There are diviners on the o-continent side, although there are also very few, but the domain awareness is still very strong and will not allow how easily the old man can spy on their side of things.”
Diviners and trigonometrists were, to put it bluntly, a profession, and in the process of divination and trigonometry, both were able to perceive each other.
He had been cut off.
If Ying Zigui was in the country, it would have been easy.
Unless it was a trigram teller of Fifth Chuan’s level who intercepted him.
There was actually a second possibility, but it was simply ignored by the Grand Elder.
Because he thought it was simply impossible.
The second possibility was that the other party was originally a trigonometrist, and was more capable than him.
He could even easily change his trigrams and calculate his position in turn.
“However, fortunately, I still managed to calculate it.” The Grand Elder forced down the blood that was churning in his throat and sighed, “This Eldest Miss of the Ying Family is, indeed, dead.”
Madam Xie was dumbfounded, “Dead?”
If Ying Zidian was dead, then who would save Xie Yu?
Xie Feng didn’t expect such a result either, his voice sank, “Grand Elder, is there no other candidate?”
“I’m sorry, Second Young Master, Madam.” The Grand Elder trembled and stood up, “I have suffered a considerable internal injury, allow me to go and rest for a while.”
Xie Feng didn’t ask any more questions and said, “Grand Elder, I’ll take you back.”
The Grand Elder nodded and allowed Xie Feng to help him go.
**
The Ye family.
Ying Ziji got off the recliner, put on an outer coat and went to the courtyard next door.
She knocked on the door.
A dozen seconds later, the door was opened.
Ye Ling was startled: “Miss Ying?”
“Miss Ye, ask you something.” Ying Zigui averted her eyes and nodded slightly, “Which one is five hundred kilometres from Ye’s house to the west corner?”
“The northwest corner?” Ye Ling wrinkled her brows and thought for a moment, “It’s the Xie family, one of the three great families of ancient martial arts.”
Just as she finished speaking, she tensed up, “Miss Ying, you wouldn’t have run into someone from the Xie family, would you?”
Southern Lin, Northern Xie and Eastern Yue, these were the three great families of ancient martial arts
Among them, the Lin family was the most powerful, the Xie family was the most ferocious, and the Yue family was the most low-key.
The Lin and Yue families were fine, they would usually be fine.
But if it was the Xie family, they would be in trouble.
Ancient martial artists are already domineering, and the Xie family is even more unreasonable, so other ancient martial arts families will avoid clashing with the Xie family.
Moreover, the Xie family had connections in the Hall of Justice.
“No, I’m just asking.” Ying Zigui became aware, “The Xie Family.”
The Xie Family, was considered an ancient martial family with a long heritage.
After she took Feng Xiu as her disciple, those ancient martial arts texts she wrote were pa*sed down, and with that, many ancient martial artists were born.
Among the group of ancient martial artists who established the ancient martial arts world in the 16th century, there was one with the surname Xie.
The Xie family has been pa*sed down to the present day for almost five hundred years.
Only the ancient martial arts texts she wrote back then were indeed very rudimentary, and the cultivation methods used by ancient martial artists nowadays were continuously refined from generation to generation.
So it was normal for cultivation levels not to reach that level of Feng Xiu.
Of course, except for those who are particularly gifted and can perceive through on their own.
There is only one person like Fu Yunshen.
Ying Zidian withdrew her thoughts: “Thank you for what happened at the dinner yesterday.”
“Miss Ying helped me, this is really nothing I can do.” Ye Ling was a little ashamed, “If Miss Ying hadn’t been there, I might have been killed by Ye Lang.”
But indeed, she didn’t know why Ye Lang’s inner strength had suddenly disappeared.
But this was indeed a good thing.
Ye Lang had already seriously injured several Ye family sons and daughters for reasons of negligence.
This time it was because an outsider was involved, so the Ye family head was able to punish.
“I’m going back.” Ying Ziji gathered his outer garment and nodded slightly, “Miss Ye, rest early, it will be easier to practice ancient martial arts and ancient medicine at the same time instead.”
Ye Ling froze.
By the time she came back to her senses, the girl was already gone.
Ancient medicine and ancient martial arts would be simpler to cultivate instead?
She silently took these words to heart and after pondering for a while, she proceeded to go back to her room to practice martial arts.
**
This way.
Ying Ziji returned to her bedroom and lay down on the bed.
With one hand holding her mobile phone, she looked lazy and sent two messages to Fu Yunshen.
[Boyfriend, I seem to have gotten into trouble.
[I’ve messed with the Xie family.
What if I don’t want to move?
When he received these two messages, Fu Yunshen was in Director Ibi’s office.
He raised his eyebrows and curved his lips slightly.
The first thing you need to do is to get rid of it.
The moment Li Xini saw this expression on the man’s face, she knew who he was talking to.
Li Xini sighed quietly.
He was a single aristocrat who had to be force-fed dog food by his superior.
But the superior’s object-
Lee Seony couldn’t help but be awestruck as he recalled it.
It was so beautiful.
He had never seen a girl so beautiful.
The kind of beauty that had broken the aesthetic differences between East and West.
Knowing that he could never be disturbed at a time like this, Sidney sat down and waited.
He didn’t expect that he would have to wait for two hours.
Fu Yunshen pressed his phone out, his peach blossom eyes slightly narrowed, his voice lowered and his lips slowly spat out two words, “Xie Jia ……”
A long time later, his attention returned and he nodded: “You continue.”
“Oh, sir, I suspect that these people might come from a place similar to the alchemy or ancient martial world.” Li Xini looked grave, “The outside world can’t get in if we don’t know the way.”
Fu Yun Shen’s eyes were deep, “I know.”
People from the ancient martial world, their identity information was not on the global information database either.
Their information was controlled by the Hall of Justice.
As for the alchemy world?
No alchemists had come out of it since the twentieth century.
Only the ancient doctors were invited by them to enter.
But those people, again, were clearly not from the Ancient Martial Arts and Alchemy worlds.
“Norton University over there has sent out alchemy students, all of whom are monitored globally.” Li Xini added, “They are still rushing to make the equipment to detect alchemical drugs, and should be able to deliver it around the globe soon.”
“This time it was a lack of preparation, if something like this happens again, we will definitely be able to counterattack back.”
Fu Yunshen didn’t say anything, his fingers tapping lightly on the tabletop.
Li Xini spoke tentatively, “Sir?”
Fu Yunshen’s eyelashes moved slightly and he smiled very lightly, “It’s just that I suddenly feel that I’m not as strong as I thought I would be after coming all this way.”
The revenge of killing his mother had not been avenged up to now.
Li Xini was stunned: “Sir ……”
In the eyes of outsiders, even a place like the nok forum, where bigwigs gathered, feared the top executive officer of ibi.
But this man, too, would show a vulnerable side of himself.
“Prepare for battle with all your might.” Fu Yunshen was faint, “This kind of thing can’t happen a second time.”
What he feared was not himself, what he feared was the person he loved.
Li Xini got up and saluted solemnly, “Yes, sir!”
Fu Yunshen slowly: “I will stay here until the 21st.”
“The 21st?” Li Xini froze, “Is it the wife’s birthday?”
“No.” Fu Yunshen’s eyebrows were lazy, “It’s the day she’s going to have her exam results out, her girlfriend is small and she has to be accompanied and coaxed.”
Li Xini cracked up, “……”
The f*ck?
This really wasn’t showing off for him?
How come he hadn’t noticed the chief being so over the top before?
“Sir, you rest first.” Li Xini wiped his sweat and sent Fu Yunshen out.
He reentered his office and hadn’t sat down for two seconds when the door was pushed open again.
Li Xini lifted his head.
Chapter 430
In came a young man with platinum blonde hair.
With deep sunken eyes and a high nose, he had a decadent beauty.
This was ibi’s space fleet commander, Anthony.
“You’re looking for the chief?” Lithini’s gaze returned to the computer, “He just went out.”
“I saw that.” Anthony came over and sat down on the table with his legs crossed, “I just had something I was curious to ask you.”
Lithini didn’t look up, “What is it?”
Anthony clenched his fist to cover his lips and lowered his voice to a whisper, “You saw the officer’s subject this time you went to the rescue, didn’t you? Come on, come on, tell me about it, what was it like?”
He was just too curious.
What kind of girl was it that could take down the chief, who was not even close to their opposite sex.
Although ninety-nine percent of ibi’s staff had never seen Fu Yunshen’s true face, they all secretly gave him another title.
The ascetic.
It’s the kind of person who can shoot a peach in the face when it comes to him.
Anthony had really thought that Fu Yunshen would end up alone.
When he heard this, Li Xini looked up.
He glanced at Anthony and leaned back in his chair, slowly: “Exclusive information, the rules of the road, first hit the money.”
Anthony: “……”
sh*t.
Shameless animal, even his own people are pitted.
But after a minute, Anthony still couldn’t carry his curiosity and transferred the money over.
Lee Sini looked at his phone and clicked collect before he spoke again slowly, “How could I betray my officer if you believe this? You’re still the commander of our air fleet, where’s your intelligence?”
Anthony listened dumbfounded, “You f*cking ……”
Lithini picked up his laptop and left the office in a good mood.
Behind him, Anthony stormed off, furious: “Lee Sini, you really are shameless and shameless, I’m going to post on the forum!”
So, in the early hours of that morning, the nok forum had one more thread related to ibi.
[Breaking news post]
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing.
The following post really served a recording.
It is a string of dog barking, lasting three minutes
With the word ibi on it, the heat was naturally high, and a number of people soon clicked in.
However it didn’t last more than a minute before it was broken down.
I’m a dog lover, I have over 100 dogs at home.
I’m a dog lover, I have over a hundred dogs at home. This is clearly a Scottish Shepherd, a three-year-old Scottish Shepherd, and you didn’t take care of it when you posted it.
The first time I saw the headline, I knew ibi was starting to implode and expose itself again.
[Came in with a happy face, went out with an angry face]
[Adding material? I really thought the director was barking like a dog.
[I guess it’s Chief Anthony who posted this time, because he’s the youngest of the several chiefs, so he likes to do childish things.
There are several officers of ibi, none of whom are a secret to the outside world.
After all, they appear in various places all the time and speak on TV and so on.
Only this top executive officer, a lot of bigwigs have been picking through the thread for half a day, but have failed to pick out a candidate who fits the bill.
Eventually the thread was deleted by the admins on the grounds that it was promoting false information.

After staying at Ye’s house for more than a week, Ying Zigui’s body was also much better and she didn’t want to move any more.
The ancient martial world was better than the outside world in terms of both air quality and climate.
In big cities like the imperial capital and Shanghai, the pollution is really too serious.
The most important thing is that no matter which piece of land in the Ancient Martial World, it can be compared to the so-called feng shui treasures of the outside world.
The feng shui is not just empty talk.
Fu Yunshen also returned from ibi as promised and came to pick her up in person.
The Ye family head came out to see her off.
He bowed towards the man before turning to Ying Zigui again and saying, “Miss Ying, take this token, come often in the future, Xiao Ling likes you very much.”
This was the pa*s token of the ancient martial world.
With this token, ordinary people could also enter the ancient martial world.
Ying shook his head slightly and politely declined, “No need, Family Master Ye.”
House Master Ye thought about it and realised that it was just as well.
With Fu Yunshen around, what need was there for a token?
He couldn’t help but be a little embarra*sed, “Blame me, blame me for overthinking.”
“These days have been hard work.” Fu Yunshen nodded slightly, “Please take care of my girl.”
“No trouble, no trouble.” The Ye family head was flattered, “I should.”
Fu Yunshen held Ying Zigui’s hand, “Yao Yao, let’s go.”
The two of them left the Ancient Martial World and Yun Shan had already brought the car.
They were going to rest in the imperial capital for another day and then go back to Shanghai City.
Ying Ziji sat in the back seat, fastened her seat belt and inclined her head, “What is your status in the Ancient Martial World? Are they so afraid of you? But it doesn’t seem like everyone knows you.”
“Well-” Fu Yunshen pondered a little, “You guess.”
“Oh, I’m not guessing.” Ying leaned back in his seat, “If you don’t tell me, you won’t have a girlfriend.”
“……”
He deeply suspected that these days, although his little friend was staying at Ye’s house, he must not have chatted with Ling Mianxi online too much.
This had been brought down.
Yun Shan, who was driving, did not look away, choosing not to hear anything.
Only after a while did he speak, “Young master, I looked into the Xie family’s affairs.”
“There’s a record there in the Hall of Justice, the Xie family sent the second young master of the Xie family to Shanghai City in May, the second young master of the Xie family went to the Ying family and asked for Miss Ying by name.”
“But later, they returned empty-handed.”
“Miss Ying?” Fu Yunshen’s eyes were slightly deep and faint, “They really dared.”
Of course he knew who the Miss Ying family was referring to.
Ying Zidian looked up.
“There is an elder in the Xie family whose trigonometry ability is only below the Fifth Chuan.” Fu Yunshen lowered his eyes to look at her, faintly, “It just so happens that the Xie family’s eldest young master had an accident this year and has been in a coma, and the ancient doctors who were hired were unable to revive her, they were just able to keep him alive.”
“I’m afraid the Xie family calculated your birth date and then wanted you to marry Xie Yu to give him a happy ending.”
Ying Ziji nodded slightly, “I understand.”
So it wasn’t the first time the Xie family had calculated her.
It was just that at that time her divine calculation ability was sealed and she didn’t have a premonition.
“At ease.” Fu Yun Shen rubbed his head, “Brother said, I’ll help you bully back whoever you’ve messed with.”
His voice was gentle, but Yunshan winced at the sound.
The Xie family was really looking for death if they wanted to steal someone from their young master.

The number of candidates using the national paper this year went up to eight million.
And the total number of people who took the college entrance exam was a little over ten million in total.
Except for the imperial capital and a few remote areas that did not use the national paper, basically all the remaining provinces and cities used the national paper.
So in addition to the provincial and municipal rankings, the national paper will eventually have a national ranking.
The results of the Shanghai college entrance exams have always been released on the 24th.
But in fact the results were basically out by the 21st.
The two days from the 21st-23rd are the days when the major universities grab the results.
By the time the results were released all over the internet, the rush was basically over.
On the afternoon of the 21st, Qingzhi High School had the list of top ranked students.
The list was in the education department and the head teacher sent it to the headmaster’s office.
The headmaster put on his gla*ses and started to look at them one by one.
At the same time, he had a number in mind.
It was well established that the questions in this year’s National Paper were difficult.
Including the language essay.
At that time, after the college entrance examination, there were already many experts commenting on the language essays this time.
There were also many students in Qingzhi who said they had written off-topic.
So the headmaster lowered his expectations a little, but the results were much to his surprise.
There were actually more people who scored 700 points or more than in previous years.
There were 70 in total.
The top 30 in the city were all students from Qingzhi.
Moreover, the headmaster really didn’t expect that there were 10 people in Cla*s 19 who had scored 700 points.
This result was already going to be on a par with the experimental science cla*s.
Who would have thought that a cla*s that was so unmotivated to study at the beginning, after a year and a half of hard work, would have this result today?
After reading the report card, the headmaster realised that there was no Ying Zigui’s.
He frowned and was about to call to inquire when there was a knock on the door.
It was the head teacher who came in.
He was out of breath, “School, headmaster, I’m sorry, I was so excited that I tried to give you Ying’s report card.”
“And you printed a separate copy?” The headmaster pushed up his gla*ses, quite calmly, “Isn’t it just a top student? What’s there to get excited about? In previous years, weren’t all the top students from the school?”
It would be strange if the top student wasn’t at Qingzhi.
The corners of the head teacher’s mouth twitched, “Headmaster, see for yourself, this top student, it’s not ordinary.”
He was scared to death, okay?
The headmaster looked down and saw Ying Zidian’s results.
Name: Ying Zidian.
Exam number: 1916xxxx0093

Maths: 150

Science: 300
