Chapter 394: Chapter 393: The Strange Ouyang Family

"Ah Qiu."

Lu Zixun, who sneezed for no apparent reason, felt somewhat puzzled.

Given his physical condition, he shouldn’t be prone to catching a cold.

Could it be that someone was thinking about him?

The first thing that sprung to his mind was Lin Siyin’s frown and smile, which brought Lu Zixun first joy and then sorrow.

When he thought about it, it had been a month since he last saw Lin Siyin.

As he gazed at the rising moon outside the window, Lu Zixun heaved a deep sigh and wondered how Si Yin was faring now.

At that moment, Lu Zixun suddenly thought of something: what exactly was the Ouyang Family?

He was still troubled by the incident in which Qing Yangming was taken away by Ouyang Qian.

Taking away humans infected with Polluted Blood—no, rather half-human, half-insect creatures—Lu Zixun had a feeling that the Ouyang Family was playing a big game.

It seemed he needed to make time for Ge Changming to investigate; if something went wrong, they needed a way to respond.

After dealing with the paperwork, Lu Zixun stretched lazily, leaped onto the bed, curled up, and fell into a deep sleep. But in his dreams that night, all he saw was the form of Lin Siyin.

"The members of Purple Mansion and Heavenly Master Mansion have already arrived in Zone 12, sparring in the arena. Those participating in this bug-killing competition are all exceptional talents; if someone were to die, I guess the people from Heavenly Master Mansion and Purple Mansion would be upset for a long time," said Xiong Kang, reveling in schadenfreude over the video call.

Upon hearing this, Lu Zixun gave Xiong Kang a dismissive glance and shook his head, "In such cases, there usually are elders secretly protecting their own. It won’t affect my move on Zhenfei, will it?"

"Definitely not. They’re just protecting their own people, not Zhenfei."

Xiong Kang smiled and added, "Another thing, I heard from Old Xu that Demon Country intends to build a railroad for transportation?"

"Is Xu Wenqing’s mouth that big to spread all kinds of news?" Lu Zixun grumbled, then admitted, "That idea did cross my mind, but it was rejected."

"Old Xu isn’t a fool. Who would dare to build a railroad to Zone 13 at this stage?"

Shaking his head, Xiong Kang advised, "Be careful. The Insect Clan gathering in Zone 14 doesn’t seem likely to disperse after just one bug-killing competition."

"I know."

Lu Zixun nodded, signaling he understood. "By the way, Kang Ning, does the Sha Fei have any Demon Clan relics? Can you send me some?"

The request left Xiong Kang in an awkward laugh; Demon Clan relics were rare, and yet here was Lu Zixun treating them like cabbages.

Seeing Xiong Kang’s expression, Lu Zixun guessed there probably weren’t any. Not too disheartened, he changed the subject, "The other day, Zi Taoming gave me a Demon Clan relic, the ’Protection of the Demon God’. Do you know which Demon God it is?"

"Of course... I don’t."

Seeing Lu Zixun’s expression darken, Xiong Kang quickly added, "I’ll have someone look into it for you. There have been many Demon Gods in the history of the Demon Clan, and a single relic isn’t enough to confirm its identity."

If one were to trace the history of the Demon Clan, it would be discovered that they have lived alongside humans from the beginning, hiding in deep mountains and forests, scarcely showing themselves.

However, when the Insect Clan arrived, the powerful members of the Demon Clan took the initiative to lead their own into the Crimson Land to fight alongside humans against the Insect Clan.

As for why the Demon Clan ended up in a passive and disadvantaged situation today, that is a thought-provoking mystery.

"Fine, you go check it out for me. Oh, you remember Qing Yangming, right? The human who was saved by the Polluted Blood."

Lu Zixun nodded and then asked,

"Now he doesn’t go by the name Qing Yangming anymore, but Ouyang Ming."

A complex expression crossed Xiong Kang’s face as he continued after a while, "And his identity has changed drastically; after Ouyang Chihong sent his daughter out to experience human society, she found the son of the Ouyang Family who was taken away by villains, also known as the brother of Ouyang Qian, Ouyang Ming."

"???"

Lu Zixun’s face was full of question marks, thinking to himself, what kind of divine plot twist is this.

"I always found it odd. How could Zhenfei believe in such an obviously bullsh*t reason? That’s really awesome."

Xiong Kang, whose worldview had been totally shattered, couldn’t help but criticize bluntly.

Lu Zixun pondered for a moment before asking, "Isn’t there anything to detect the Blood Energy Aura? Such lies should be easy to expose, right?"

Upon hearing Lu Zixun’s question, Xiong Kang slapped his thigh fiercely, "Damn it, speaking of which, I even got scolded for it. No idea what method the Ouyang Family used, but no matter how Sha Fei checked, he couldn’t detect the Blood Energy Aura on Ouyang Ming. To give each other a way out and not to offend the Ouyang Family, I had to take the blame."

Lu Zixun felt slightly amused but also a bit unable to laugh.

The Ouyang Family definitely wanted to make a move with Ouyang Ming; otherwise, they wouldn’t bother doing all this.

"Come to think of it, in this upcoming Insect Clan competition, it’s Ouyang Ming who’s leading the Ouyang Family’s team."

After saying that, Xiong Kang added, "If you really want to get to the bottom of this, this is the best opportunity. But don’t kill the guy—he’s got the mark of Patriarch Ouyang on him. Touch him, and the old Patriarch will TP over to deal with you, scared?"

Lu Zixun was somewhat speechless, "...TP is coming out, like having a big shot accompany you on a mission?"

"What else? Family Head Ouyang Chihong’s ’fake’ son, ’real’ daughter, Deputy Family Head Ouyang Tianxiang’s eldest son, second son, grandchildren of Patriarch Ouyang—all are deeply involved; how could they not be concerned?"

After finishing, Xiong Kang reiterated his advice, "In short, just one thing—observe from a distance, no killing, or else even Ninth Brother won’t be able to protect you."

"Got it, got it, rambling on like an old granny."

Lu Zixun rolled his eyes and sighed deeply, "Regarding knowing that Ouyang Ming is Qing Yangming, you guys are just not going to do anything?"

"What can we do? There’s no solid evidence, and confronting the SSS-level pressure from Patriarch Ouyang to kill Ouyang Ming?"

Xiong Kang shook his head, "That’s just not possible, we can only pay close attention to the Ouyang Family’s movements."

Indeed, although Lu Zixun didn’t believe that Sha Fei wouldn’t have an SSS-level presence.

But now, without any evidence, rashly killing Ouyang Ming could mean eliminating future troubles.

However, to offend Patriarch Ouyang over this was really not a profitable endeavour.

"Alright, I just hope nothing goes wrong."

"If there is trouble, it’d be Zhenfei’s problem, what does that have to do with Sha Fei."

Hearing this, Lu Zixun raised an eyebrow.

It seemed he had learned quite a lot from his conversation with Xiong Kang.

"Brother Xun, Quan Yifang is back and says he needs to talk to you."

Hearing the voice of Ge Changming, Xiong Kang obviously heard it too, waved his hand, and yawned before saying,

"Go ahead, I was just about to take a nap anyway. We’ll chat more another time."
