Chapter 164 – Yuan Shi: Have I become a spy?

"Not much, not much."

Zhang Yuanqing waved his hand, and just when Li Dongze and Guan Ya thought it was really not much, he changed the subject: "2000 points. Guan Ya was almost choked by the juice," he said, "200 points of morality?"

"Oh, my God, I've never seen so many points of morality in my life," Li Dongze sighed.

The way ordinary spiritual realm practitioners accumulate morality points is relatively simple, nothing more than some public welfare and good deeds. Morality points usually remain around a hundred.

Official practitioners have special channels for donations, and the Five Elements Alliance organizes employees to do large-scale public welfare activities every year. Accumulating morality points is more convenient than for independent practitioners. The morality points of ordinary official practitioners are generally maintained between 100 and 200. Although Li Dongze is not enthusiastic about charity, he has not done anything bad, and over the years, he has accumulated about two hundred morality points. As for Yuanqing, he has done a lot, and he has ten times more than that.

Two hundred points of morality, wow, such a big case is rare. You can kill and do bad things as much as you want in the future," Ling Hook said as he ate a piece of melon. "I also think so, but is it not too good to say it directly?" Zhang Yuanqing said firmly, "How could I do bad things? Ah, these morality points are completely useless to me." "Why don't you do bad things? You always peek at Guan Ya's chest," Ling Hook exposed him.

"This is not peeking, it is appreciation and yearning for beautiful things. Besides, Guan Ya is right here. You sound very disrespectful to her," Zhang Yuanqing warned, glancing at the beautiful mixed-race woman. Ling Hook "startled" and said, "When she knocked out my front tooth back then, I didn't see her being very respectful to me.

Oh? Old Siji once praised Ling Hook? Zhang Yuanqing became curious and gossiped, "What's going on?"

Guan Ya smiled and said, "He was a flirt back then. He would chat up any pretty girl he saw. Once he followed his grandfather to visit the Fu family and wanted to hold my hand when he saw me, and he said something about Lin Meimei."

"I had only been learning Chinese for a few years at that time and didn't know who Lin Meimei was, so I beat him up. Ah, we were not spiritual realm practitioners at that time. Now he is a saint, and I can't beat him anymore." "Oh, childhood sweethearts," Zhang Yuanqing said sourly.

Ling Hook laughed twice, "Those are all old stories. Why bring it up again? You're making me very embarrassed."

Search "pawℝead.com" for the original.

After those two incidents, Ling Hook's heart and his missing front tooth were equally traumatized. Since then, women surnamed Fu were not his cup of tea, no matter how beautiful they were. Ling Hook looked at Zhang Yuanqing and said with a lazy smile, "I don't like girls who are too familiar. Otherwise, with my elegance and demeanor, Guan Ya would be my girlfriend now, and you would be the one who benefits." There was a hint of matchmaking in his words.

Guan Ya looked at him and asked, "What do you mean?"

Ling Hook grinned and said, "I just want to see Fu Qingyang call himself my brother-in-law. That would be very interesting."

Guan Ya chuckled and turned to look at Zhang Yuanqing, saying, "He's quite famous now. He has countless women who like him. The queen just messaged me asking about you. It seems that she has a good impression of you. Are you interested in getting to know her?"

She does indeed have a good impression of Yuanqing, not to the extent of being lovers, but far beyond that of ordinary friends of the opposite sex. If this state continues, Fu Qingyang will really have to call Yuanqing his brother-in-law. Ling Hook, who is extremely familiar with women's thoughts, could see the sourness in Guan Ya's heart, the more teasing, the more she cares.

Yuanqing didn't have this kind of delicate thinking. Although he was good at socializing, he didn't understand women's hearts. He subconsciously stepped on the gas pedal; indeed, she is a woman with a deep cleavage and a very attractive figure. When she opens up one day, Guan Ya, you must let me know. Isn't this guy a fool? Ling Hook heard this and felt heavy in his heart.

He quickly looked at Guan Ya, who giggled and said, "Sure, sure." Although she was smiling, there was no real joy in her eyes.

Yuanqing was very satisfied with his driving skills and laughed heartily.

He really is a fool. Ling Hook thought about taking this kid out for some fun one day, to let him understand women more and know how foolish it is to speak ill of another woman in front of a woman who has a good impression of you. The correct answer should be: although that woman is not bad, compared to Guan Ya, who has such a deep cleavage and is a stunning beauty, there is a world of difference.

At this moment, Fu Qingyang pushed open the double wooden doors of the study, and his shallow and light eyes swept over the four people, saying lightly, "Yuanqing, come out with me for a moment."

Zhang Yuanqing quickly put down the small silver spoon for digging ice cream and went over eagerly.

Seeing him coming over, Fu Qingyang turned and walked away. When Zhang Yuanqing closed the door of the study and followed him, he said without looking back, "The case has been settled. You've earned quite a few morality points, haven't you?"

"Two hundred," Zhang Yuanqing said.

Fu Qingyang nodded, "In the future, when dealing with incidents, don't be constrained by ordinary people, and don't be afraid of being calculated by enemies in terms of morality points. Hmm, what do you think about this case?" Zhang Yuanqing fell silent for a moment.

"I'm very disappointed in Songhai. I have always been proud of the people of Songhai. It is so developed, so wealthy, and so outstanding that it is enough to be among the best in the world. But now, I just feel that it's rubbish." He paused and added, "More rubbish than Ling Hook, Jiang Jingwei, and Guan Ya."

Due to his grandfather's influence, he has a strong sense of patriotism.

He had seen bad cases before, but the impact on his values from what he saw in the news and what he saw with his own eyes was on a different level. When he learned about Wu Ye's crimes in detail and the involvement of the powerful figures in the Shako District, he began to have some resonance with the idea of "cleansing the world" by the Demon Eye King. This is an extremely dangerous sign.

"It is indeed very rubbish," Fu Qingyang nodded and added, "If this leads to a sense of world-weariness, remember to find Mr. Sun for psychological counseling." After walking a few steps, he spoke in a calm and solemn tone, "Don't have extravagant hopes for human nature, and don't despair about the world.

Is the Centurion trying to enlighten me? Zhang Yuanqing was pleasantly surprised.

As they walked through the corridor and down the double-sided staircase, Fu Qingyang asked, "What do you think about dealing with Kou Beiyue?"

At these words, Zhang Yuanqing knew that the real business was coming. He immediately said, "The Centurion will decide."

Fu Qingyang deliberately called him out, and it should not be just to ask how to deal with Kou Beiyue, it's that simple."The Five Elements Alliance has always been ruthless towards evil occupations. People like Kou Beiyue, even if they are not killed, must be imprisoned for a long time. But I think his usefulness is definitely not limited to this," Fu Qingyang said. "Such as?"

"Such as, we need someone who can infiltrate that small team."

The small team should refer to Master Wuhen's team. Zhang Yuanqing suddenly realized, "You mean you want to develop Kou Beiyue into a mole, to be planted as a spy in Master Wuhen's team?" "Why does the second half of your sentence sound so awkward?" Fu Qingyang looked at him and said:

"I have interrogated Kou Beiyue. He doesn't seem very smart and his thoughts are very simple. Such a person is not suitable to be a spy." "So what you mean is..." Zhang Yuanqing's eyes widened.

Fu Qingyang nodded, affirming his answer, "You're right. The branch needs a spy to constantly monitor that force. Yuanshi, you are quick-witted and good at socializing, a good candidate for a spy. Kou Beiyue is your ticket. With this, Master Wuhen and his evil occupation will definitely have a greater appreciation for you."

Indeed, if Xiao Yuan knew, she would definitely be sincerely grateful to me, and Master Wuhen would be even more accepting of me, but...

Zhang Yuanqing said in his heart, "But I can't do it. If Master Wuhen finds out that I infiltrated the organization as a spy, he will kill me. His intention to cling to Master Wuhen is to have a backer in times of crisis, to save his life, not to throw it away!"

As a high-level scout, Fu Qingyang could see his concerns and rich inner struggles at a glance, and explained, "Just keep an eye on them, you don't need to do anything. Just provide intelligence when necessary."

"When is the necessary time?"

"When Master Wuhen is out of control," Fu Qingyang said calmly.

"You should know that those who become evil occupations are criminals in reality. But you may not know that criminals are just the beginning. The higher the level of the evil occupation, the more twisted their mentality becomes. This is the nature of the occupation and cannot be avoided. Although that Dominator has always been very disciplined and low-key, the nature of the occupation will not change. The more he endures, the more terrifying the evil will grow, and there will be a day of collapse. And at that time, it will be the time of disaster."

Zhang Yuanqing suddenly remembered that every time he saw Master Wuhen, his voice was full of pain, as if he was enduring something.

No wonder he needs to endure the pain of living in the dark, and no wonder Xiao Yuan said that Master Wuhen is not convenient to take action. "So how can the evil thoughts in his heart be resolved?" Zhang Yuanqing frowned.

"Killing!" Fu Qingyang said in a deep voice. "The bloodthirst of the enchantress, the malice of the witch doctor, the evil of the illusionist, all will ultimately lead to killing. And once the killing taboo is broken, the floodgates will burst. But before Master Wuhen loses control, the elders of the branch are unwilling to be his enemy, the cost is too great, so they need you to keep an eye on him."

"I understand," Zhang Yuanqing said softly.

As they spoke, they reached the end of the stairs, and in front of them was a black iron door. Fu Qingyang took out the access card and handed it over. "After dealing with him, accompany me to interrogate Chi Yue'an," he said with a calm expression.

Interrogate Chi Yue'an? What's there to interrogate? Zhang Yuanqing swiped the access card, entered the private cell, and followed Fu Qingyang's instructions to the third iron door. In the small room that served as a rest area and washroom, a pale-faced, bright-eyed young man sat weakly on the bed, looking calm.

There was a sense of fulfillment, a readiness to face death.

Although his injuries had been healed by the Beast King, Kou Beiyue knew that death was still inevitable.

In the hands of the Five Elements Alliance, death was the only choice, the order and evil were incompatible, and he had no reason to live. Hearing footsteps, the young man, who had been sitting with his head down, looked up and saw Zhang Yuanqing, his eyes lighting up.

"How is your branch going to deal with Chi Yue'an?" he couldn't wait to know the result. "Death penalty!" Zhang Yuanqing said in a deep voice.

Kou Beiyue felt a sense of relief, and was even more able to accept his fate. "Good, I will meet him on the road to the underworld. Yuanshi Tianzun, please remember to thank Xiao Yuan for me. She accepted me and led me when I was most lonely and desperate. Otherwise, I might have fallen long ago. To me, she is like a mother and a sister, and I am very grateful to her."

Zhang Yuanqing nodded, "Anything else?"

Kou Beiyue thought for a moment and said, "The case of Chi Yue'an must be made public, on the news and such, so that my parents can see it. They will know that their son has never done such beastly things, and that their son has been living to seek revenge."

As he spoke, he remembered the bitterness and pain of the past two years. This young man, who had been seriously injured and never cried or begged for mercy, had moist eyes and a sad face. Zhang Yuanqing asked, "Anything else?"

"No, that's it. Oh, and thank you. You are a good person, and I respect you very much."

Kou Beiyue was surprised to find that when he said these words, he had no sense of embarrassment or awkwardness. Normally, he would never say such sentimental things. Perhaps when a person is about to die, his words are also good?

Zhang Yuanqing nodded and opened the door to the cell. "Okay, you can come out after you're done. The Songhai branch has decided to let go of their grudge against you. You can go back to where you came from." Kou Beiyue stared blankly at him.

For a moment, the cell fell into a strange silence.

After about two or three seconds, Kou Beiyue's face twisted, and he gritted his teeth, "Respect you my ass, you're just a bastard!"

Sha Kou District, street corner.

A man in jeans and a duckbill cap stood on the street, looking around cautiously while listening to the phone.

Chi Yue'an has been arrested, and the Copper Sparrow Tower he operated has been sealed by the authorities, and he has fallen into the hands of the authorities. Before being arrested, he threatened to expose your affairs if you didn't save him. "Where is he being held, in the Animal Garden of the Dog Elder?" a faint voice came from the phone.

"Sorry, I didn't find out, but he was taken away by the Lingjing Walker of the Kangyang District. You should have seen the post on the official forum." "Hmm."

"Do I need to kill Yuanshi Tianzun? This kid doesn't know how to restrain himself and offends people everywhere."

"You can't kill him. Heh, I'm quite interested in him. I will deal with Chi Yue'an, you continue to lurk." "Understood."

Kou Beiyue walked through the bustling street, feeling very uncomfortable.Having just cursed at the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, he embarrassingly realized he had no money on him and had to sheepishly ask for 20 yuan for travel expenses. He planned to take the bus back to Jinshan City. Upon checking his phone, he found over a dozen missed calls from Xiao Yuan.

"Xiao Yuan must be worried. I should call her back first," Kou Beiyue dialed the phone, which was as nurturing as a mother or sister.

He knew Xiao Yuan didn't have her own intelligence network and had to regularly visit familiar black markets to gather information. The incident that occurred early this morning hadn't started to ferment yet, so it was unlikely for Xiao Yuan to be immediately aware of it.

"Beep beep~"

The call connected, and Xiao Yuan's icy voice came through the speaker:

"Kou Beiyue, you've really learned something, even turning off your phone. Did you learn that from the Primordial? The nagging that used to be so annoying, so full of motherly concern, now sounds like it's from heaven."

Kou Beiyue felt as if he was in a different world, a smile without gloom or melancholy spread across his face:

"Xiao Yuan, I can finally let go of the past. I've been reborn."

There was silence on the other end of the line for a few seconds, followed by Xiao Yuan's cautious voice: "Are you saying..." Kou Beiyue said excitedly:

"The Primordial Heavenly Venerable took me to destroy Chi Yue'an's den of thieves, capturing the beast alive. The higher-ups at the Songhai branch have decided to execute him."

"The Primordial Heavenly Venerable helped you with this? Captured Chi Yue'an alive? Was he injured?" Xiao Yuan's voice suddenly rose, but then she stopped abruptly, patching up her question: "Were you injured?"

"I'm fine." Kou Beiyue, who was rather thick-skinned, didn't notice Xiao Yuan's abnormality.

"What a pity, it would have been better if he died out there," Xiao Yuan said harshly, then indifferently added: "Come back, I will plead with Master Wuheng on your behalf to take you back." "Mhm, mhm!" Kou Beiyue didn't catch Xiao Yuan's slip of composure.

Wuheng Hotel.

At the reception, Xiao Yuan, dressed in a white shirt paired with a burgundy blazer, slowly hung up the phone. Her icy expression melted like ice, giving way to relief and joy, and she was in high spirits. Xiao Yuan turned away from the reception, her lips slightly upturned, took the elevator, and arrived at room 404.

"Knock knock!"

She knocked on the door and said softly:

"Master Wuheng, I have something to report."
