He Lao raised his eyebrows and smiled, taking a sip of his tea, “It might be better to hear the good news at the end.”
Qin Li frowns, “Then which one does He Lao want me to hear first?”
“You killed Li Yi Ran, it involves a lot of things, so why don’t you listen to the bad news first.” He Lao put down his cup, his eyes cold.
Qin Li immediately froze, the bad news is from Li Yi Ran’s side?
“That power?” In an instant, he guessed something.
“There is a very large organisation behind Li Yi Ran, and even when we meddled in, we failed to probe much information. But the only thing we can be sure of is that this organisation, even amongst the entire Hidden Clans, is one of the best in existence.”
“And by killing Li Yi Ran, you obviously disrupted their plans. I then had people investigate deeply and found out again that before that. The one who abducted and sold the child in Jiangnan.”
“The Witch Heavenly Masters of the Western Region are all from this power.”
“And these few people were all killed by you.” Elder He looked towards Qin Li, “The bad news is that our people have detected that this force, intends to cut you down to the roots.”
Qin Li’s eyes stared blankly.
“Being targeted by a super power, you should understand the dangers involved better than I do.” He Lao said, “I suggest that it would be best for you to join a more powerful force.”
“Or, raise your cultivation and create your own power.”
“Because of this incident, it has attracted the attention of the one above. You are the Admiral of our Chinese Inland, if you are targeted, if they fail to kill you.”
“Then it’s highly likely, that they will make a move against our Chinese soldiers, thus hooking you to appear.”
“Do you understand why this is bad news?”
Qin Li’s face darkened.
“This matter, I’m telling you this so that you can think about it yourself. How you decide on it will also depend on your own situation.” He Lao’s words fell.
Suddenly laughed: “Just now you said you wanted to hear good news, but I let you hear this first.”
“Do you know why?”
Qin Li looked up, “Elder He has always been thoughtful, there must be a reason of your own.”
“Hahaha! You’re the only one who can talk, kid. Truly, this news is far too important to me.”
“And, the good news is for you, if I gave it to you earlier, I’m afraid you wouldn’t have the heart to listen to the rest of what I have to say.”
He Lao winked at Qin Li and said somewhat flirtatiously, “Next, let’s give you the bad news again?”
Qin Li immediately smiled, “The more you do, the more curious I am about what the good news actually is.”
“Haha, there’s no rush, it’s yours, it’s all sitting there, it’s not like you can’t run away!” He Lao took another sip of tea.
Xu Yinran was on the side, eating pastries with his head down, his ears twitching every now and then to show that he was listening.
“Well then, first listen to the bad and not so bad ones.” Qin Li said, his eyes somewhat gloomy.
Li Yi Ran’s matter he didn’t expect to implicate so many, it seems that the force in his hands that he had been trying to cultivate up, should be rectified.
“Actually, this matter is not a big deal, it’s just that the one above isn’t too happy.” He Lao suddenly said, “You are an inland admiral, there are positions on you that become different.”
When He Lao said this, Qin Li’s first reaction was the issue of this trip to Hong Kong Island.
As expected, He Lao said, “Your battle with Wang Guo Xing was too reckless.”
He Lao stared at Qin Li, his face solemn, “But!”
He said and suddenly smiled, “I think you did a beautiful job! Give that Wang Clan a good, resounding slap in the face!”
Qin Li froze now.
“The one up there said that you were stirring up conflict, and I see that it was that Wang family that was stirring up conflict.”
“But although I think it’s good, what the one above means is that when you return, I’ll have to take you to meet him.”
“I’m afraid, he’ll give you a stick and then stuff a sweet date.” He Lao narrowed his eyes, “Qin Li, do you know what position your current strength is in the entire military?”
Qin Li raised his eyebrows, this he Dao did not know.
In the martial arts world, on the bright side, he was said to be number one.
But in the military, the hidden families, he didn’t even know where his strength stood.
A hazy layer, this is also the reason why he has not had any bottom to go to his mother, for fear of what trouble will be attracted to her at that time.
Originally thought that the False God Realm was already a strong person, but the sudden appearance of that Witch Heavenly Master, the power behind Li Yi Ran, made him a little worried.
“In the army, apart from the obvious martial artists such as Xu Laosan, there is also a group of hidden martial artists trained by the Institute.”
“This is an unspeakable secret, but I can tell you that your strength among them is already at the top level. That’s why the one above pays a lot of attention to you.”
Peak Zongshi was at the top of the heap, so it was highly likely that the army also had a Pseudo-God Realm existence?
“Come on.” He Lao suddenly got up, “I’ll take you to see the good news first, and after that, I’ll take you to meet that person.”
Qin Li was puzzled for a moment, see the good news?
“What does Elder He mean?”
The corners of He Lao’s mouth hooked as he suddenly looked at Qin Li, “I applied for this from above, it was originally meant to be used as an institute treasure, but that should be yours.”
Qin Li froze, “What exactly is it?”
He Lao was silent for a moment before suddenly speaking, “Your parents’ relics from back then.”
Qin Li was immediately struck by lightning and violently froze in place.
Only after a long time did he react, following He Lao out the door, getting into the car and driving towards the research institute.
“Brother Qin? Are you alright?” Xu Yinran sat beside Qin Li, looking at Qin Li’s somewhat soulless appearance at the moment, somewhat worried.
“I’m fine.” Qin Li smiled faintly, only his face was a little pale.
He Lao was right, his parents were too important to him, and he hadn’t even thought that there were still relics of his parents at the institute!
This gave him a faint hope that there was news of the two in that relic.
The car travelled all the way to the research institute.
He Lao entered with his pass, and when he got out of the car, he was surrounded by a number of students from the institute who greeted him.
“Your parents’ research location, it’s in the interior, but the general public is not allowed to enter there.”
He Lao said, “The institute has too many secrets, which is why the Hong Kong Island side has been trying to get their hands on it.”
Qin Li suddenly remembers something when he hears this, “The He Family is in opposition to the Hong Kong Island Wang Family?”
“Eh?” He Lao gave a start, “Who told you that?”
Qin Li smiled without saying anything.
“You! Don’t say such things casually, it’s just that that Wang family has always regarded themselves as noble and looked down on us inlanders. The He family has led troops to Hong Kong Island more than once, and each time, they have left in crushing defeat.”
“The Wang family has taunted with my He family again and again, this time, you did give me a surprise.”
He Lao said, leading Qin Li into a door.
Entering his fingerprints, he walked into a glass passageway.
After passing through a few more doors, He Lao stopped.
“This is where your parents used to work.”
It was an unusually well-equipped room with not much in the way of people at this point.
However, one could still smell some strange odours in the air, and Qin Li even felt that the aura within his body was starting to get excited when he entered one of this room.
The pores of his body rose greatly, as if he had placed a Spirit Gathering Array in himself.
As Qin Li watched from this side, He Lao turned around and took out a small box from a password box before turning around and handing it to Qin Li.
“These are your parents’ relics, take them back.”
Qin Li immediately raised his hand to take it, his face somewhat uncontrollably agitated.
Looking at Qin Li with this look, Elder He smiled, “How about this, you go back and rest first, I’ll take you to see that person tomorrow.”
“Many thanks Elder He.” Qin Li nodded his head.
Seeing this, Elder He directly sends Qin Li back to his villa, and Xu Yinran is also smart enough to follow Elder He and leave.
As for Qin Li, after carrying the box back to the villa, he went up to the first floor and set up a barrier defence and another shield.
Only then did he look at the box in his hands.
It was a sandalwood box, strangely still somewhat warm.
On top of the box there were some intricate carvings of miscellaneous writings, which at a glance looked a bit haphazard.
Qin Li searched for half a day, but surprisingly, he didn’t find where the place to open it was.
It was only after a long time that he froze as he looked at the runes, experimentally injecting his aura into them, the runes above the entire box suddenly emitting a golden light.
The next moment, the box barred itself open.
Inside were some everyday items, and a silver ring placed in a glass box.
Qin Li immediately took the ring, and with just a glance, he determined that the ring was actually a Nascent Ring!
Immediately, he used his spiritual energy to enter, and with ease, he directly probed into it.
Qin Li was stunned, and when he saw what was in the space of the Nascent Ring, he was completely confused, his eyes instantly reddening.
