The Millennium After Dying Young Chapter 38: Assessment from Nan Family
Xu Le's mind is full of Xu Beibei these days, and he seems to have forgotten something vaguely.
It wasn't until he heard the cat meow that he realized it instantly.
Bai Wuchang and Gu Yueer agreed on the day to catch the "cat demon", it seems to be these two days.
Calculating the time, it seems that a certain tracker has just been repaired, and it is impatient to start.
This is... in a hurry to give away the head?
Xu Le expressed his incomprehension.
A Gu Yue'er who has almost no combat power, plus black and white impermanence, plus a bull's head and horse face, this is probably the strongest combat power that the underworld can show.
At best, add some shrimp soldiers and crab generals, which are better than nothing.
Such a meeting, in front of a certain idiot, I'm afraid it's not even a warm-up exercise.
Where did they find the courage to take the initiative?
Unless...
Xu Le suddenly thought of a possibility, perhaps only in that way, they could have the power to fight.
The underworld has never been as simple as humans think.
As a matter of fact, it is also true, what humans can touch is only one of them.
The underworld is divided into three domains.
Underworld, Netherworld and Sea of Blood.
The local government governs. It is the gate connecting the two worlds of yin and yang. They do a series of tedious things such as determining life and death for ghosts, awarding rewards and punishments, and reincarnation.
Assuming that Yinyin is a big company, Jifu is equivalent to the Ministry of Personnel. It is also the only supernatural sector accessible to humans.
The ghost manages money. As the name suggests, it is the financial department of the big company in the underworld, which controls the financial power and takes into account the development of science and technology. Although it has no real power, it is the top priority of the underworld.
A sea of blood raises soldiers. The elite troops of the underworld are gathered here, and the sea of blood has bred terrifying warriors one after another. All of them are brave and good at fighting. Anyone who comes out randomly must be at least at the level of Bai Wuchang's ecstasy messenger.
There is no doubt that the sea of blood represents the supreme combat power of the underworld.
Even in Xu Le's peak period, he would have to pay a heavy price in the face of a sea of blood from the elite.
For example, the ghost soldiers are all wiped out.
As for Xu Le, at least one or two strands of hair will be left behind.
What a terrifying combat power!
So Xu Le believes that if the underworld borrows soldiers from Xuehai, then tonight's battle should last for a long time.
Put on his coat, Xu Le is ready to go out. To deal with that thing, strength alone is not enough, and some gadgets are needed.
Xu Le pushed open the door and walked out.
At this moment, Xu Beibei ran in holding the phone.
The little guy is wearing a lace orange skirt tonight. The hem of the skirt bumps up and down as he runs, looking like a little princess.
"Papa! Papa! Answer the phone!" After stuffing the phone into Xu Le's hand, the little guy obediently stood aside, staring at the phone eagerly, with a look of hopelessness.
Xu Le saw that the caller was Nan Xiaoxi, she leaned into her ear and gave a hello before walking out.
"Xu Le? The day after tomorrow, my dad will be on his seventh day. Would you... want to come over?" Nan Xiaoxi asked tentatively.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Le is puzzled.
I was afraid that it would be embarrassing if the relationship was unclear, so I had previously agreed not to go.
Now I’m here to ask again, what do you mean?
Xu Le was about to speak when there was the sound of "dumping" footsteps behind him. Looking back, the little guy followed him step by step, looking straight at Xu Le, as if he was afraid that he would run away.
Xu Le felt that the behavior of the little thing was a bit weird, so he said a word to the microphone, and then asked Xu Beibei: "What are you doing?"
"Papa, have you finished typing yet?" Xu Beibei looked at the phone anxiously.
Xu Le was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that this little thing was eager to play games with his mobile phone, so he couldn't laugh or cry immediately.
In the past two days, Xu Beibei loves playing games with his mobile phone. Xu Le naturally followed her wishes. He didn't have any business in the first place, so it didn't matter.
But now, Xu Le feels that it is necessary to build another one.
Well, it's not bad anyway.
"Go to bed early, on Sunday, Dad will buy one for you, okay?"
"Really?" The little guy's eyes lit up.
After receiving the confirmation reply, Xu Beibei went back to her room happily.
Calm down the little guy, Xu Le went to the street, and said to the other end of the phone while walking: "Okay, Beibei has something to do just now."
"I just heard you say that you want to buy something for her?"
"Well, she has recently become obsessed with mobile games, I will buy her a mobile phone."
"How can this be done! How old is Beibei?" Nan Xiaoxi strongly protested, with a firm attitude: "You are hurting her by buying it for her so early!"
"Will...?"
Xu Le pinched his phone, feeling a little guilty, and he had never taken care of a child.
"You are the father..." Nan Xiaoxi sighed helplessly from the microphone.
Xu Le could even imagine the scene of her holding her forehead while complaining to the phone, and immediately felt a little embarrassed.
Xu Le coughed dryly: "If you don't buy it, you have to buy it. You have agreed to it. You can't let me, a father, keep my word?"
Nan Xiaoxi didn't speak.
Xu Le said again: "The big deal is to limit her playing time?"
Nan Xiaoxi let out a sigh of relief: "It's not too bad."
"Well, I'll talk about Beibei later. Didn't we talk about what you said just now? Why did you suddenly change your mind and ask me to go there?"
Nan Xiaoxi said, "It's what my grandfather meant."
"Grandfather?"
"Yeah." Nan Xiaoxi paused for a moment, and then said eloquently.
While listening, Xu Le went into the roadside grocery store to buy something. After paying the bill, he found a place where no one was around and jumped.
Flying towards somewhere "biu".
Xu Le's body is covered with a layer of black mist, which is a protective color and also an isolation layer. No matter how powerful the airflow is during the flight, it will not mess up his hairstyle.
So Nan Xiaoxi didn't know that Xu Le was flying in the air at this time, and he was still talking about things slowly.
A moment later, Xu Le approached the area where the incident happened, and at this time, Nan Xiaoxi also finished talking.
After listening to Xu Le, he felt a little ridiculous.
It turned out that after Mr. Nan's health improved, he urged Nan Xiaoxi to get married. But after all, he is the eldest grandson of a big family, so the important matter of marriage is naturally not a trifling matter, and must be discussed carefully.
Unexpectedly, a group of relatives headed by Nan Xiaoxi's uncle Nan Zhendong expressed strong protest against the marriage.
In their mouths, Xu Le is a waste who is just waiting to die, without any special skills. Nan Xiaoxi marrying him is like jumping into a fire pit.
Originally, Mr. Nan speaks a lot at home and has a high reputation. No one dares not to listen to what he says.
But now that Nan Zhendong has mastered the right to speak in the group, his status in the family is also improving rapidly. What's more, he still takes the devious route of "holding the injustice for his brothers".
"Brother didn't agree with the two of them being together before he was alive, and now his bones are still cold, Dad, won't your decision make elder brother rest in peace under Jiuquan?" Just this sentence made most of the relatives stand in Nan Zhendong there.
Although the old man has a great reputation, he is not willing to go his own way.
The two sides could not resolve the dispute, so they decided to let Xu Le come to the door by himself, and make a decision after an assessment.
"Assessment?"
Xu Le chewed on these two words with a weird expression on his face.
Since the sect was destroyed, no one dared to say these two words to him. I didn't expect that ordinary people would make such a request to him now.
It's really interesting.
Nan Xiaoxi didn't hear the weirdness in Xu Le's words, and continued: "Well, what they mean is that you must have the ability to do business if you enter the Nan family, so I think they will give you a small company to run , and then use the turnover to speak. There have been similar situations before, and I guess it should be similar this time."
"I know you are not good at this, don't worry, I will teach you secretly, you don't have to worry about this, as long as you come, you will surely win, you must come, okay?"
"It's for Beibei, okay..."
Xu Le originally wanted to say, "I'm sorry, I never accept the assessment, if I can't tie it up, I'll let it go."
But after listening to Nan Xiaoxi's words, he swallowed them back.
His goal in this life is to live a peaceful and stable life for a family of three, so as to make up for the family relationship that he has never experienced in his previous life...
With fewer people, how can it be called a family?
Thinking about it, Xu Le decided to make a compromise with those ignorant mortals.
"Okay, pick us up the day after tomorrow."
Nan Xiaoxi on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned for a moment, and after a while she happily said: "Yeah!"
Hung up the phone, Xu Le collected his emotions and looked down at his feet.
Below is a huge forest. From Xu Le's angle, he could only see a large area of dark green. As a last resort, he flew a little closer, and then, he was a little surprised.
The closer you get, the more you can feel the explosive fluctuations of spiritual power coming from the forest. If it weren't for this shield on his body, Xu Le felt that his hairstyle would have been messed up long ago.
There are many dark shadows in the forest, and spiritual power and Yin energy are intertwined, forming waves of invisible energy, and the blowing leaves are like waves. Many small saplings were uprooted and whirled in the air.
Among the flying leaves, countless black shadows could be vaguely seen scurrying about. They were holding various weapons, and their footwork was indescribably elegant.
Among them, a petite figure kept fighting with them.
It is extremely agile, and can dodge the attack just right every time, and then counterattack with the opportunity, sometimes with its claws, sometimes with its tail.
Very funny attack style.
But its destructive power is absolutely terrifying!
Whenever it is hit by it, the black shadow will explode on the spot and be wiped out. It is really tragic!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
As the battle became more intense, the explosion effect produced by the surrounding spiritual energy became stronger, even comparable to bombs.
Each blow can blow up a row of trees and split several boulders!
Where the shadows pass by, not a single blade of grass grows!
The battle has entered a fierce stage.
