A few people separated at the bus stop, Qi Yuan took the subway and left, while the remaining four people took different bus routes home.
After getting off the bus, it was not yet the evening rush hour, and the small alley was deserted.
Stepping on the solid cement ground, the muffled footsteps echoed in the empty alley.
The cell phone vibrated slightly, and the ringing tone on the other end of the receiver was waiting for the other party to pick up.
After a while, the call was answered.
"Hey, Master, you guessed right, Qipan City also has people raising monsters."
The other end of the receiver said something, and Lv Cheng held the receiver away for a bit before saying, "No rewards for being so efficient at work, do you still doubt whether it’s true or false? Am I that unreliable?"
"You little rascal, stop coveting my paranormal items. Besides, when have you ever been reliable? I hope you didn't leave any traces behind, otherwise you’ll be done for before I even get to Sui Province."
"Hehe"
Hearing his master's words, Lv Cheng let out a wicked laugh unbecoming of a decent person: "Of course, I already pushed the blame onto someone else. There will definitely be no problem."
"Pushed it onto someone else?!"
The person on the other end of the receiver almost jumped up: "Lv Cheng, we are the protective umbrella for the common people, not some kind of privileged person."
"Master, what about the trust between people?"
Lv Cheng was aggrieved, accusing this distrustful world: "I pushed it onto the son of a privileged person. Even if you get in trouble, he won’t get in any trouble."
"Is this true? Other than young miss Xue from the Xue family, who else in Qipan City has such powerful background?"
"There are two second generation espers with C-rank espers as bodyguards. They didn’t even dare fart when they saw him, just slipped away with their tails between their legs. Isn't that enough?"
To have C-rank espers as bodyguards, not only do you need money, but the family must have at least a B-rank esper holding the fort.
Able to suppress such second generation espers to not even dare make a sound, this family must have a high-rank esper at least.
After figuring all this out, the person on the other end of the receiver reluctantly let Lv Cheng off: "Don't let this happen again. Have you thought about what would happen if his family found out?"
"Uh... Haha, Master you wouldn't just abandon me right?"
Lv Cheng swallowed his saliva and let out a dry laugh.
"Humph, aren't you so capable, enjoying being a smart Alec? I can always take on another disciple. You’re replaceable."
"No way, you can’t find another as filial as me."
"You’re soooo filial."
Lv Cheng shamelessly pretended not to understand the sarcasm: "Of course."
"Stop bickering with me for god's sake, I'm hanging up."
"Beep—— Beep——"
Before Lv Cheng could say another word, the other party mercilessly hung up the phone.
"Always calling me disciple when you need me, then calling me rascal when you don’t. Such a hard to please old fart."
He put away his phone and strode forward.

An esper of at least B-rank strength, a member of The Pillar Project, the unfathomable Qi Family. Every detail made Xue Shiyun not dare underestimate Qi Yuan.
Recalling her previous attempt to win over the son of a prestigious family, she felt somewhat embarrassed.
How come such news wasn't recorded in his profile when it was circulating in school?
Did the Qi Family step in to erase all records?
Upon receiving Qi Yuan’s message while still working overtime, she immediately put down the report in her hands and opened it to view.
The first photo showed a few mutant hounds digging a pit with exposed human bones inside.
The second photo showed the pit fully excavated, with a considerable number of human bones buried within.
Through matching duplicate body parts, Xue Shiyun deduced that there were at least more than a dozen people.
Man-eating monsters, even if E-rank, would encroach closer towards areas of human activity.
Therefore, Dragon Country explicitly stipulated that corpses must be cremated.
The bones in the photo looked quite fresh without much maggot infestation. There were also no reports of large numbers of people missing or dead recently.
If not someone committing murder and burying corpses, then it must be theft of corpses, and theft of large numbers of corpses has only one purpose——to feed monsters.
In the past, Bitfo Country had an incident where rearing monsters led to the destruction of an entire city.
The neighboring city also had such an ugly scandal, which was fortunately discovered in time before catastrophe struck.
Although there was no evidence to prove it, many monster researchers speculated that monsters advancing levels and devouring humans were correlated.
Thinking of this, Xue Shiyun’s expression froze as she disregarded proper diction and input directly.
[Xue Shiyun: Where was this discovered?]
[Qi Yuan: The hill behind an abandoned high school on the outskirts]
[Xue Shiyun: I understand, please inform us if there are any new discoveries]
The reply from the other side came swiftly. Just as Xue Shiyun got up and barely took two steps, she received new information.
[Qi Yuan: There’s someone called Lv Cheng who seems to know something, he specifically led me there to check it out]
[Qi Yuan: It’s the nephew of the uncle guarding entrance No.2 today]
He really does know something. Not bad for an esper who reached B-rank at such a young age.
Xue Shiyun was delighted. This little smart Alec from who knows where was wielding a huge saber straight into Lord Guan's face.
The name seemed a bit familiar. She knitted her brows trying to remember where she had seen it before.
Unable to recall at the moment, Xue Shiyun put it aside for now. Reporting to her superiors to catch the monster breeders was most important currently.
On Qi Yuan's side after sending the message, he put his phone back into his pocket.
The living were standing right before him. He only saw what he wanted to know and didn't want to know.
This guy really didn't treat him as an outsider. Showing close "brotherhood" one moment then using him as a scapegoat the next. Quite an imaginative plan he had.
The human heart was sinister outside. A simple and honest little brother was still easier to bully.
Looking at his silly little brother sticky with a young girl downstairs, Qi Yuan laughed uncontrollably while taking out his phone to snap photos.
No wonder he stubbornly refused to go to Shen City recently, always playing with this girl until nightfall before going home. So this was why...
"You noticed it too. Recently Xiao Ao has been playing with this girl until dark before going home."
Qi Yuan's mother unknowingly walked over at some point, sipping flower tea from a cup.
Laughing without a shred of dignity yet still wanting to keep things secret for his little brother, Qi Yuan shuddered in fright from his mother's sudden voice.
"Mom, how do you walk without making any sound..."
"No sound? I walked over very naturally without lightening my footsteps."
Qi Yuan's mother leaned against the window sill smiling, watching the few children below critiquing: "Xiao Ao doesn't understand girls at all. He looks like he doesn't know how to pursue, just slobbering all over her like an annoying clinger. Showcasing one's strengths at the right place and time is far better than stubbornly sticking to the other party, fully revealing flaws. "
She paused and took a sip of flower tea, afraid he didn't understand and supplemented: "To put it in male terms, a messy looking girl forcefully chasing and clinging would not be as good as a well put together girl with just a smile."
Thereafter, she glanced at Qi Ao and shook her head: "It can't be helped since both his father and I look decent, but he looks average. Without any strengths to showcase, he can only work harder."
Qi Yuan: ...The outrageous remarks you're making sound as if little brother isn't your son.
He turned his gaze downstairs. His clueless little brother still had a silly smile plastered on his face, drooling all over the girl.
Oh well, mom made a lot of sense. He couldn't find anything to refute.
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
