Chapter 645: The Bald Eagle Kneels and Slides — Go Kill That Reckless Demon First!
......
It wasn't until the late Fourth Restriction stage, when breaking through to the Fifth Restriction, that the delicate fragrance would intensely burst forth, blooming briefly like an epiphyllum, a momentary splendor.
Lu Ding's current state of being enveloped in this delicate fragrance was truly deception at its peak.
As for why he was in this state...
Gloomy Energy: You're asking me?
Damn, the scent of a Fourth Restriction Qi Refiner was supposed to come from me.
But I can't even touch this guy, where would I get it from!?
One touch from him and I'd be shattered to pieces!
Forget it, I'll see him again at the Fifth Restriction.
Lu Ding smelled the scent on his body, savoring it in his nasal passages."Not bad, quite refined."
Now his cultivation level was sufficient.
It was time to settle accounts with Path of Dry Bones 749.
He stood up and walked out of the cultivation chamber.
Fu Xinghe, who had been waiting, saw Lu Ding emerge and approached calling out: "Brother Lu."
Without unnecessary words, he directly handed over the tablet and got straight to the point.
"During your secluded cultivation period, three things happened that I consider relatively important. The last one is particularly urgent."
"First, Path of Dry Bones 749 brought in White Eagle's technical personnel to restore the surveillance footage. They discovered your figure but didn't capture your face, so they didn't dare confirm it."
"Perhaps because the intensity applied to Path of Dry Bones 749 Chief Duan Tianya last time was too high, he didn't even dare come to question or investigate the situation."
"He just sent a message, which I didn't reply to."
Whether they discovered him or not, Lu Ding actually didn't care.
If he had wanted to hide, he wouldn't have gone so openly while wearing his scholar-warrior sleeves and dan-print robe.
As for not capturing his face, that was truly coincidental.
"I'll go over personally later. What's the second matter?"
Fu Xinghe continued: "The White Eagle consulate sent people to apologize. Moreover, they provided evidence of Saika Maki conducting human experiments."
"On the same day the surveillance footage was restored, they exposed this and strongly criticized Path of Dry Bones 749."
"They're currently waiting for you in the reception room, wanting to apologize to you in person for not properly managing their own people and causing you trouble."
"As for the person who helped Path of Dry Bones 749 restore the surveillance footage, they've already been controlled and sent over."
These people were quite clever.
Actually, Lu Ding didn't have much opinion about the person who restored the surveillance footage.
They were just doing their job.
If someone needed it, they did it.
This was just like lawyers - could you define someone as good or bad solely based on whether they defended the plaintiff or defendant in a single case?
"Let them wait for now, we'll deal with it when I return."
"Tell me about the third matter."
Fu Xinghe reached over and scrolled down through the integrated data on the tablet in Lu Ding's hand.
Until a video excerpt appeared.
He tapped play and said: "The last matter is that we discovered a suspicious person about two kilometers outside the farmhouse courtyard."
"Through surveillance tracking, I found that he started acting furtively after entering within five kilometers of the farmhouse courtyard."
Lu Ding watched the surveillance footage in the video.
The person in it was none other than Big Head, who had been sitting opposite Gao Qiuli at the All Under Heaven One Family restaurant.
Lu Ding fast-forwarded the video, watching the figure in the footage who was clearly overcompensating - pretending to be relaxed and casual yet full of stiffness.
He felt somewhat amused.
"They still don't understand the power of technology."
The saying goes that even a lion uses full strength to catch a rabbit.
It was true that there were surveillance cameras in the farmhouse.
But no one said there weren't surveillance cameras outside the farmhouse.
Within a five-kilometer radius, there were surveillance probes everywhere - both overt and covert, covering both sky and ground.
Essentially locking down this entire area.
Anyway, White Ridge had money now, these small expenses were completely insignificant.
At times like these, you couldn't skimp on costs or resources. The principle of being penny-wise but pound-foolish was something Lu Ding, having grown up in an orphanage, understood from childhood.
After watching everything, he asked: "Where is he now? Where did he run off to? Have you tracked him?"
Fu Xinghe nodded: "Zhan Tingzhou is following him. The position he just reported to me is Lady's Temple 749 jurisdiction area, All Under Heaven One Family restaurant."
Hearing that Zhan Tingzhou was following, Lu Ding had to admit in his heart.
Reincarnators were really useful.
Whether it was the previous No-Leave-Heaven or this current Big Head, both were tracked by Zhan Tingzhou, and completely silently at that - he truly had skills.
This work was more effective than police dogs.
He returned the tablet to Fu Xinghe: "Record his merit."
Then, Lu Ding strode out - he was going to see what was going on!!
Compared to delivering Dragon Emperor Different Dimension to the stationary Path of Dry Bones 749, he preferred to first deal with this mobile Big Head.
Just look at how he walked in the video - top-heavy, unsteady, stumbling and swaying.
It was infuriating just to watch.
And carrying the suspected identity of a Wuwang demon.
He had to deal with him!!
"Brother Lu, do you need me to accompany you?"
It must be said that the habits ingrained in Fu Xinghe's mindset were still influencing him.
See?
Even now, he still remembered that 749 investigators must work in pairs of two or more.
Lu Ding didn't forcibly change this about him - having principles and concepts was a good thing. He had them too, and they should be respected.
"No need. According to the detailed information, Xiankong Town was only completely reshaped today. You've been running between both places, moving everywhere - rest up, recover your condition. I can see bloodshot in your eyes, no need to push so hard. Leave the remaining tasks for others to handle."
"As for over there, Zhan Tingzhou is present. When I go over, that will make two people, don't worry."
You can't treat people like workhorses.
That Reshaper wasn't something ordinary people could operate.
Fu Xinghe had been working at such high intensity for so long - he needed to rest.
But these words, when they reached Fu Xinghe's ears, though intended to let him rest, actually stirred up Fu Xinghe's motivation instead.
If we're talking about tiredness, he felt Brother Lu was much more tired than him - never stopping, even squeezing in time for cultivation, not resting for a moment.
And now he was showing concern for him instead...
Fu Xinghe stood straight as a ramrod: "Understood, Brother Lu."
Lu Ding nodded and soared into the sky: "I'm going first."
After he left.
Fu Xinghe took the tablet, opened the Xiankong Town mining area planning documents, and walked toward Qian Jin's office direction.
There was still the Zhao Family's remaining mining area that needed planning and handling, plus a pile of reports that needed writing.
He... couldn't rest!!
He didn't feel comfortable leaving these matters for others to handle.
...
Outside All Under Heaven One Family restaurant in Lady's Temple.
Zhan Tingzhou hid in the shadows, simultaneously sensing the aura of his own techniques to confirm Big Head hadn't escaped, while feeling puzzled in his heart about the White Eagle Qi Refiners who had come to the bureau to kneel and apologize.
"Strange, I didn't see them being this proactive in my previous life."
"Could it be that the commotion Lu Ding caused in the Third Circle in this life was bigger than what Bai Hemen and Huangfu Lingyun caused in the previous life?"
"That shouldn't be..."
"In the previous life, those two actually fought and subdued the entire nation of Wei Gao, and they defeated White Eagle's Angelic Divine Son and Demonic Divine Son in two hundred fifty moves and five hundred moves respectively..."
"Could it be that Lu Ding alone defeated both of them?"
"Within one hundred moves, or fifty? Even fewer?"
"Or perhaps, even in a place with obvious upper limits like the Third Circle, he alone fought and subdued an entire nation?"
Lacking other intelligence.
Zhan Tingzhou could only speculate based on the known deeds of Bai Hemen and Huangfu Lingyun from his previous life.
Unbeknownst to him, Lu Ding alone had suppressed all nations across East Asia and Southeast Asia.
Even White Eagle's Divine Son, Louis, hadn't dared to engage him in a direct, real fight.
Just as confusion filled his heart.
A hand reached out and pressed on his shoulder: "What are you thinking about?"
Although he recognized this as Lu Ding's voice, Zhan Tingzhou still instinctively bristled.
When did he arrive? And when did he get so close to me? I actually didn't notice...
This terrifying level of strength.
Made Zhan Tingzhou turn his head to look at Lu Ding behind him while silently adding in his heart: "Perhaps within twenty moves..."
