Chapter 139 Lingling's Thoughts
Devil!
The weather here is gradually getting warmer again.
In big cities, young men and women tend to dress more fashionably.
The girls made no attempt to hide their figures, sharing their beauty with everyone.
Short skirts, low-cut tops, midriff-baring clothes, backless clothes, and other types of clothing are emerging in endless streams.
However, in this bustling place, there is an old street with a unique charm from the Republican era.
The old shop at the end of the road still didn't have much business.
A little girl in a light blue cheongsam was sitting at the door, resting her chin on her hand and scrolling through her tablet with a hint of boredom.
The tablet was filled with demonic theories that were easy for her to understand.
Next to her were some common books, such as "One Thousand and One Demons", "How Magic is Made", and "Aladdin's Magic Tools".
"Ugh, so boring!" The little girl shook her head slightly, looking very annoyed.
As she moved, her twin ponytails swayed behind her head.
Just then, a cup of bubble tea suddenly appeared on her table.
Immediately afterwards, a somewhat teasing voice came from behind her.
"Hey, you've finished the 'Five Years of College Entrance Examination, Three Years of Simulation' workbook from last time?"
Upon hearing this voice, Lingling's eyes lit up, and she quickly stood up and turned around, only to see a silver-haired young man holding a cup of coffee standing there.
"Ah, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be participating in the National Academy training with Mo Fan and the others?" Lingling asked in surprise.
In her mind, her two partners were far more capable than their peers and there was no possibility that they would be eliminated from the National Team.
Besides, even if someone is eliminated, it should be someone else, not him.
Hua Yu shrugged and smiled helplessly, "I returned to China without permission and was asked to stay with the national team for the time being."
As soon as he turned on his phone after leaving the Land of the Dead, he received a call from a distant island nation.
The instructors first severely criticized his unauthorized departure, and then informed him of the corresponding punishment.
The captain of the National Government team was asked to stay with the National Pavilion team for a period of time to oversee the situation.
Wow, five old men, you guys really know how to have fun!
Which country is trying to prevent from obtaining the emblem of their country, China?
Fortunately, China's national pavilion is located in Shanghai, so Hua Yu doesn't have to travel around and can take a break for a while.
"Pfft."
Hearing Hua Yu's words, Lingling couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She thought only Mo Fan could do something so stupid, but she didn't expect Hua Yu to do it first.
She picked up the straw, poked open the lid, and drank it with relish.
"Are you back for a mission this time?"
"I don't want to." Hua Yu moved a stool and sat down next to Lingling, taking a sip of coffee.
Ok?
It's a little bitter!
But just like life, it has both bitterness and sweetness.
Sure enough, milk tea is something only kids drink; adults like me should drink coffee and savor life.
"I'll look for a mission later," Lingling said.
"Wait, I just said I didn't want to." Hua Yu put down her coffee and looked at Lingling with some confusion.
It's been a while since I've seen her. How come this girl's hearing has deteriorated?
"I know." Lingling nodded, then blinked and looked at Hua Yu innocently. "But I'm bored."
Hua Yu glared at Lingling with annoyance.
Little girl, if you're bored and want to do a task, just say so. Why ask him?
Isn't this unnecessary?
"Whatever you want, just keep an eye on things yourself." Hua Yu had nothing better to do, so she didn't mind taking Lingling out for a bit.
Seeing that Hua Yu agreed, Lingling smiled happily.
She was quite satisfied with the two partners her grandfather had chosen for her.
One is desperately short of money and will take on any task; the other will take him on tasks as long as he wants them.
In short, following behind them wasn't boring at all.
The only problem is that, so far, the three of them have not done a single mission together.
They didn't seem like a three-person team at all; it was more like she was working two jobs on her own with two other people.
If it were anyone else, they would be unhappy, but she was overjoyed. As long as she didn't have to go to school, everything was fine.
"By the way, is there something you need this time?" Lingling suddenly thought of this question.
Unlike Mo Fan, Hua Yu is perfectly fine and won't show up at all.
"Hey!" Hua Yu said, taking out a bead from his spatial storage while drinking coffee and casually tossing it to Lingling.
He spent a considerable amount of time in the Abyss of Fiends, just to do two things.
First, he absorbed the energy from the chaos; second, he used the chaos system to absorb the evil thoughts within the Condensation Pearl.
Chaos's explanation is somewhat conservative. What exactly does it mean to absorb dark magic?
That's clearly all the energy related to evil; it can absorb it all.
Lingling took the bead and glanced at it, but didn't feel anything special about it; it was just an ordinary glass ball.
She couldn't help but ask, somewhat puzzled, "What is this?"
"I heard from Mo Fan that you're looking for a dark red soul."
Upon hearing Hua Yu's words, Lingling's delicate body trembled slightly, a complex expression appearing on her face, before she nodded.
The dark red soul is her only clue to uncovering the truth behind her father's death.
"When I was training in the island nation, I stumbled into a special forbidden area and discovered this bead. It seems to be able to absorb evil thoughts. As for the dark red soul you are looking for, it seems to be related to it as well. You can keep an eye out for it."
Upon hearing Hua Yu's words, Lingling's pupils constricted sharply, and she immediately stood up, asking, "Are you telling the truth?"
Hua Yu nodded, and then told Lingling about the Red Demon that Wangyue Mingjian had mentioned.
"Let's go now." After saying that, Lingling prepared her luggage in the morning and set off for the island nation.
Hua Yu frowned slightly, and with a thought, pulled Lingling's small body back and made her sit down in her seat again.
"I know what happened to your father, and I know how you feel right now, but no matter what, you need to stay calm. This is someone even the Hunter King couldn't handle. Do you think you can? Or do you think you're stronger than your father right now?"
Upon hearing this, Lingling fell silent.
Seeing this, Hua Yu changed the subject and continued, "Of course, since I chose to tell you about this, I didn't mean to stop you from investigating, but the premise is that you have to promise me you won't act impulsively, do you understand?"
"I know." Lingling nodded, took a deep breath to calm herself down, and continued, "Hua Yu, I must find that guy myself."
"I trust you."
