Chapter 482: Chapter 482: The Ancestor is an Orphan

Xun Tianhai frowned, "Spouting nonsense? Just you wait and see, the Abbot won’t spout nonsense! Zhu Ming, I don’t want to waste words with you. Out of respect for us being from the same sect, I called to tell you that the Jiaoyang Temple Abbot is indeed extraordinary. Her strength is much greater than mine, so I advise you to take her words seriously and be more cautious these days."

"She may be stronger than you, but that doesn’t mean she’s better than me. I know what I’m doing, and I don’t need a weasel offering New Year’s greetings to the chicken," Zhu Ming said mockingly. "Instead of worrying about me, you should worry about the Jiaoyang Temple Abbot you brought into the forum. Tell her to be ready to be embarrassed by me."

With that, Zhu Ming hung up the phone.

Xun Tianhai hadn’t managed to speak before he heard a busy tone coming from his phone.

Xun Tianhai looked at his phone and almost burst out laughing.

"Overestimating oneself, courting death!"

His face cold, he put away his phone.

It’s hard to persuade a determined fool.

Zhu Ming was courting death on his own; there was no stopping him.

Xun Tianhai had fulfilled his duty as a fellow disciple. He had advised all that he could, and if Zhu Ming wouldn’t listen, whatever happened had nothing to do with him.

Xun Tianhai returned to the police station’s garage, got into his car, and drove to the airport, unwilling to bother with Zhu Ming’s fate any longer.

When he arrived at the airport, the plane tickets that Meng Hongyao had booked were still not ready for departure.

Meng Hongyao and two colleagues from the Unusual Affairs Management Office were discussing the details of their upcoming assignment and were making some preparations.

While they were exchanging opinions, Meng Hongyao suddenly heard someone calling her.

"Hongyao—"

Meng Hongyao couldn’t hear clearly, turned her head to look around, and saw Xun Tianhai running through the crowd towards her.

As he reached her, Meng Hongyao couldn’t hide her surprise, "Director, what brings you here? You are not listed for this assignment, are you?"

"I’m here to deliver something." Xun Tianhai jogged up to her, slightly out of breath, he took out the Talisman Paper that Jiangli had given him and handed it to Meng Hongyao, "These are an Amulet and a Warning Talisman given by the Jiaoyang Temple Abbot. Take them."

Meng Hongyao took the two talismans, raising an eyebrow, "Warning Talisman?"

"It’s a Talisman developed by the Jiaoyang Temple Abbot. I’m not clear on its effectiveness, but her talismans should be somewhat useful. You take them for now," Xun Tianhai looked up at the flight information, "She said you should avoid being in the air, and since you have to take a plane again, it’s better to be careful."

Meng Hongyao looked at Xun Tianhai, her expression still somewhat cold, but her eyes not as icy, "Understood, thanks for making the trip, Director. If there’s nothing else, you can go back. I need to get ready for boarding."

Her flight time was approaching.

Seeing Meng Hongyao’s cool attitude, even lacking a word of thanks, Xun Tianhai couldn’t help but feel disappointed.

But he knew Meng Hongyao’s personality and quickly composed himself.

He nodded and only turned to leave after Meng Hongyao went off to prepare for boarding.

...

Above the airport, planes roared past.

Jiangli and Fu Shiyan, among others, had long returned to the hotel. Claiming to be tired, she took her Lucky Cat and went back to her room first.

Xia Xin could tell that Jiangli’s mood was off today, and her conversations with Liao’s parents were odd.

However, Jiangli clearly did not intend to share her thoughts with anyone.

Xia Xin could only sigh and turn to head back to his own room.

Fu Shiyan watched Jiangli close her room door before turning and walking with Duan Jianchuan in the direction of their rooms.

"Third Brother, I remember, isn’t the Abbot an orphan?" Duan Jianchuan followed beside Fu Shiyan, studying his expression before suddenly bringing it up.
