Acha slowly opened her eyes.
Before me stretched a vast blue sea, its clear, transparent waters resembling a pure sapphire!
Beneath her feet lay a wide, golden beach. The fine, damp sand looked so soft that Acha couldn't help but take off her shoes and bury her toes in the sand.
Acha turned around, and behind her was a beautiful mountain peak!
Especially that waterfall, it looks like a silver river hanging down from the heavens!
Acha's previously irritable mood instantly turned into joy. She raised her head, and although there was no sun in the sky, the bright sunlight shone on her face, making her feel extremely peaceful and comfortable.
"Li Yang, where is this place?"
Acha looked at Li Yang with delight; she absolutely loved this place!
"You can think of it as another Water Curtain Cave in Flower Fruit Mountain, and I am the master here!"
"Right now, there is no one else in this place besides the two of us, not even any animals!"
Li Yang did not explain the origin of this special space, and Acha did not care. Everyone has secrets. She just needed to know that Li Yang would not hurt her.
"I love this place so much! Can you show me around? I want to remember this place with my eyes, and then use my ability to transform my realm to replicate it in the underworld!"
this moment.
Acha has already forgotten about the Maldives.
How can the ordinary scenery of the Maldives compare to the paradise of a celestial land!
then.
The two of them wandered around the blessed land, enjoying the scenery. When they got tired, they used the ground as their bed and the sky as their blanket, and played some games they liked together!
When the two returned to Convenience Store No. 444, completely satisfied, Zhao Li and the other soul ferrymen and underworld police were nearly driven mad.
Pluto disappeared for two days and two nights!
If they hadn't been certain that the Celestials knew nothing about Hades's disappearance, they would have thought he had been assassinated by the Celestials!
When Li Yang brought Acha back to the convenience store, Zhao Li, who had received the news from Xia Dongqing, immediately returned with Hua Mulan.
Upon entering, Zhao Li was furious when he saw Li Yang.
"Damn Li Yang, you bastard, I knew it was you who kidnapped Hades!"
Where have you been these past two days?
"Do you know that during the two days you and Hades disappeared, the entire Underworld was almost thrown into chaos!"
"Do you know how terrible the consequences would be if the Heavenly Realm discovered that the King of the Underworld had come to the mortal realm without permission?"
Zhao Li's eyes were bloodshot, clearly from not sleeping well for the past two days, and he seemed rather irritable and easily angered.
Li Yang smiled slightly, "Relax, relax, we've actually been in the capital all along, we just went to a place where no one can find us!"
"Don't worry, even the celestial beings with the ability to see and hear everything from afar wouldn't be able to find that place!"
Zhao Li was a little confused. "Are you sure you've been staying in the capital these past two days?"
"Of course!"
"Damn it, that bastard Lao Xu must have lied to me!"
Zhao Li cursed and said, "When he first became the City God, he was a greenhorn. I had been guiding him through the work, and he actually lied to me, saying that you were no longer in the capital!"
Turn around.
He then looked at Acha and knelt down on the ground with a thud.
"Your Majesty, you've had your fun and your revelry, haven't you? Shouldn't we head back to the Underworld?"
"There are still so many important tasks waiting for you in the underworld!"
Zhao Li gave Li Yang a meaningful look, suggesting that he help persuade Li Yang to forgive and forget about Li Yang abducting Hades.
Li Yang smiled slightly, "Acha, go back now. I'll come see you when I have time."
Acha smiled radiantly at Li Yang, but her expression turned icy when she looked at Zhao Li.
"Alright, I'll head back to the Underworld now, but before that, Zhao Li, I have a task for you!"
"I need you to find me ten whales, a hundred sharks, and as many other sea fish and seafood as possible. I want to raise fish!"
Zhao Li was completely dumbfounded.
What kind of requirement is this?!
Hades wants to raise fish?
Can creatures live in the underworld?
Zhao Li forced a smile and said, "As long as you return to the Underworld, I will work overtime with my brothers to find the whale ghost, the shark ghost, and the other seafood ghosts!"
Acha rolled her eyes. "If I wanted to find the souls of those seafood, would I need you? I want them alive!"
"Once you find them, hand them all over to Li Yang!"
then.
Acha's figure disappeared, returning directly to the underworld.
Zhao Li struggled to his feet and glared fiercely at Li Yang.
"Tell me, were you behind this? Did you whisper in Hades' ear, making her torture me with this kind of abstract task!"
Li Yang shrugged. "It's Acha who wants to raise fish, not me. But you'll find out the reason in a while!"
"Now that things are over, I need to go back to my apartment. I'm going to Longhu Mountain in a few days to participate in the Luotian Grand Ceremony!"
Li Yang returned to Love Apartment and ran into Lu Ziqiao as soon as he entered.
"Hey, Li Yang, you've got dark circles under your eyes after just two days!"
Seeing Li Yang's state, Lü Ziqiao suddenly realized something and grinned lewdly:
"I get it. Have you been galloping around on horseback these past few days?"
"But you're having a blast! Take care of yourself. Little Hei downstairs has a family recipe passed down by a royal physician. Want to give it a try?"
Li Yang gave Lü Ziqiao the middle finger and went back to his room to take a shower.
As a result, Lü Ziqiao also came in and stood at the bathroom door chatting with Li Yang.
"Oh, by the way, there's something I need to tell you. We have a new member in our organization!"
"The rest of us agree that they should join. Now we only need your opinion. You and Yifei have a veto!"
After taking a shower and changing his clothes, Li Yang came out of the bathroom and asked curiously, "Is the newcomer to the apartment also a cultivator?"
Lu Ziqiao laughed and said, "They're not newcomers. They've lived here for a long time. We were just neighbors and friends before."
"But now that Love Apartment has been officially recognized as a supernatural organization, they only have two choices: either move out or join us!"
"They chose to join us!"
Li Yang sensed from Lü Ziqiao's words that the people who wanted to join Love Apartment were acquaintances.
Who exactly are you talking about?
"Hey, Little Black downstairs!"
Lu Ziqiao explained, "Xiao Hei downstairs is also considered a member of the cultivation circle. He and his seven brothers are like the Calabash Brothers; they used to run errands on their own!"
Li Yang was stunned.
"What? There are seven Black ones?"
Lu Ziqiao laughed loudly, "You had the same reaction. I was also shocked when I found out that Xiao Hei was actually one of the seven Calabash Brothers!"
then.
Li Yang then met the seven Bai brothers at the bar downstairs!
That's right, the guy downstairs, nicknamed "Little Black," is actually surnamed Bai!
Seven identical-looking black children, their eyes lit up when they saw Li Yang, and they shook hands with him one by one.
"Greetings, Boss Li Yang!"
The black men were very respectful.
Li Yang smiled and said, "We're all friends, so relax. It's not like we haven't dealt with each other before."
Xiao Hei said cautiously, "I didn't know your identity before. It was only after that incident in Jingjue Ancient City that I realized how powerful you are!"
Xiao Hei didn't know that Li Yang was the reincarnation of the Divine General Fei Peng, but after watching the video of him killing the Chaos Serpent God, he thought he was a reclusive master!
Li Yang asked curiously, "How do you know about the Jingjue Ancient City? Wasn't it officially sealed off and disappeared?"
Xiao Hei smiled modestly yet confidently.
"Although we brothers work independently, we have connections with many official intelligence organizations both domestically and internationally, as well as underground intelligence organizations, so we are quite well-informed!"
Chapter Fifty-Two: Little Black's Intelligence in the Martial World! The Old Celestial Master's Plans!
Li Yang became genuinely interested and asked, "Which intelligence organizations do you have connections with?"
Xiao Hei explained, "In China, some civilian intelligence agencies have been shut down by the authorities. The only one that remains active is the Jianghu Xiaozhan, managed by Mu You, one of the Ten Elders of the Extraordinary!"
"In addition, there are some intelligence brokers who sell intelligence through the underground black market or the dark web!"
"These people are just like Xie Ruolin in the TV series 'Lurking,' they can buy all kinds of intelligence as long as they pay money!"
"As for foreign intelligence organizations, there are many. Among them, the Continental Hotel in the United States is considered a reputable intelligence gathering center!"
Li Yang was taken aback.
Mainland hotels?
He really does know!
The mainland hotel headquarters is located in the United States. It is a high-end membership hotel that is only open to members of an assassin organization.
The hotel itself is a neutral and safe zone. Assassins are absolutely not allowed to kill in the hotel. Everyone in the hotel will be protected!
Also.
Hotels in mainland China also facilitate various transactions and information exchanges, making them the top choice for many assassins to gather intelligence!
Xiao Hei's ability to connect with Jianghu Inn and Mainland Hotel is truly impressive!
Li Yang then asked, "You brothers are all quite capable; you should be able to succeed anywhere. Why did you choose to join Love Apartment?"
The seven little black men knew that the interview had begun, and they couldn't help but become more serious.
"My brothers and I made our fortune through inventions. We basically ignored everything else and focused solely on inventing!"
“In the beginning, some people asked us to customize all sorts of strange and unusual props, and we perfectly manufactured what they wanted.”
"And just like that, we went viral, our brand awareness grew, and more and more people started commissioning us to create all sorts of inventions!"
"Many large companies and official research organizations have invited us to join, but we are used to freedom and do not want to live a nine-to-five life like cattle and horses."
"Later, perhaps because our inventions became too popular, some assassins and spies also asked us to customize props!"
"Among them, assassins are alright. Their job is to kill, and they don't get involved in many troublesome things, so they aren't very wary!"
"But spies are different. They might be plotting some big trouble, so they are very wary and afraid of their identities being exposed. They will kill anyone who might leak their information!"
The little black guys looked miserable.
"We've just run into a spy like that!"
"Later, we finally managed to evade the spy's pursuit and even turn the tables on him through our own efforts and inventions!"
"Having learned this lesson, we decided to establish an intelligence channel to screen customer information in order to protect our own security!"
"Then I gradually got in touch with the Jianghu Inn of the Ten Elders Mu You!"
"They even became members of mainland hotels through their former killer clients!"
"But even so, we are still being targeted by some people!"
"These people mainly fall into two categories. One group comes for money. Over the years, we have made a lot of money through inventions, and some people have set their sights on the wealth we have accumulated!"
"Another group consists of various underground organizations. They value our inventive abilities and want to kidnap us to work for them as slaves in our research!"
