Become a god from scratch

Chapter 197 The target has been set off——

"Axue, we just want to go out for a walk during the holiday. You really don't have to accompany us."

Ye Hongyu arrived at Longjiang Airport and was taken to a private plane by staff. She looked at her best friend Li Xue in front of her helplessly.

At this time, it was Li Xue who was waiting for the couple in the private plane.

Even though they now knew that Li Xue's true identity was the granddaughter of Li Min, the strongest man in Taixia, that strongest man had made a special trip to meet the couple, so they naturally wouldn't feel depressed because of Li Xue's identity, nor would they drift away from Li Xue because of it.

However, they really didn't want to alarm anyone this time. They just wanted to quietly take a walk around the old land to see if there was any chance to meet Lin Xuan and the others.

"You two are already grown up, why are you still acting like two kids and running away from home?" Li Xue rolled her eyes and said, "If grandpa hadn't sent someone to protect you secretly, are you really planning to hide it from everyone and sneak away to Old Land?"

"Someone is protecting us secretly?"

Lin Hai and Ye Hongyu looked at each other in surprise when they heard this, obviously not expecting such a thing to happen.

But Lin Hai reacted quickly and said in astonishment: "So, in the two previous missions when I encountered danger, those powerful people who passed by were not just coincidences?"

"Longjiang City is not the capital. What do you think is the probability of meeting a few commanders on the street?" Li Xue spread her hands.

"Yes, I should have thought of it earlier!" Lin Hai slapped his thigh.

In the two previous missions where he encountered danger, each time a commander-level strongman who passed by happened to deal with the enemy. He thought he was really lucky at the time.

Now that I think about it, this is not luck at all...

It was just that because he met different commanders on those two occasions, he didn't think too deeply about it. After all, he didn't expect that there would be more than one commander protecting him in secret.

Now after hearing what Li Xue said, he suddenly understood.

Ye Hongyu had never encountered such a special situation, but after hearing this, she couldn't help but ask: "Does someone protect me here too?"

"Of course, at the same time there will be at least one or two commanders protecting you in secret to avoid any unexpected situations." Li Xue nodded.

When the couple heard the specifications, they were stunned.

Indeed, ever since Li Xue’s grandfather came to visit them in person three years ago, they have realized how important Lin Xuan is to Taixia now.

But apparently some of their inherent ideas have not been completely changed, so when they suddenly heard that there were so many commander-level strong men protecting them in secret, they subconsciously felt that it was too incredible!

You know, even though Lin Hai had the full support of the vice president of the Taiyan Institute in the past three years, he had only reached the middle-level general level.

With this kind of strength, in the previous Chiyan, he would have been enough to become the deputy-level leader of the provincial-level Chiyan branch.

However, with the earth-shaking changes that have taken place on Diyuan Star in recent years, the overall strength of the extraordinary people is no longer the same as before.

But no matter how it changes, the mid-level general will definitely be a leader in the Red Flame Dragon General Division.

If Lin Hai hadn't been promoted so quickly, with his current strength, no one would say anything even if he directly became the director of the Chiyan Longjiang branch.

As for Ye Hongyu, although he has become a transcendent, he has not yet reached the level of a general.

Therefore, for them, the commander-level is still a strong person that they can only see in the news.

Generally, when a major disaster breaks out somewhere, the government will send a commander-level strongman to suppress the disaster.

So when they suddenly heard that there was more than one commander-level strongman who had been secretly protecting them, their first reaction was incredible!

“Isn’t this a bit exaggerated?”

Lin Hai asked in a low voice.

"Is it an exaggeration? You don't realize your own importance!" Li Xue shook her head.

"How important are we?" Ye Hongyu pointed at herself and then said in surprise, "I know Xiaoxuan now has a powerful master, but even if that's the case, there shouldn't be such a big fuss... We are not big shots, who would come and target us for no reason?"

"That's too much." Li Xue was somewhat helpless about her best friend's low sensitivity, so she had to explain, "Do you know that my grandfather once had a disagreement with City Lord Ping and the others on how to arrange for the two of you?"

Lin Hai guessed, "Does City Lord Ping also think this is too big of a fuss?"

Li Xue shook her head: "No, he thinks this is too unsafe. He thinks you should be invited to the Imperial Capital. Whether you want to continue working in Chiyan or want to enjoy life, you can...but you should not stay in Longjiang City anymore. This place has long been unable to accommodate the two of you."

"???"

Lin Hai never expected that Li Xue's grandfather turned out to be the more rational person in this matter, and that Lord Ping was even more exaggerated.

"Don't look at me like that. From a safety perspective, there are indeed risks for you to stay in Longjiang City."

Li Xue pondered and said, "Although Xiaoxuan's apprenticeship is not known to the public, it is no longer a secret to the top leaders of various countries. This also means that your names have long appeared on the desks of the heads of various forces. You don't really think that no one has noticed you, right?"

Lin Hai smiled awkwardly and said nothing.

Because he really didn't expect that he, a mere deputy director of the Chiyan Longjiang branch, could have such a great influence.

Li Xue continued, "Normally speaking, as long as the countries are not crazy, they will not do anything to you, because Xiaoxuan is not only from Taixia, but also from Diyuan Star. In fact, they have benefited a lot from Xiaoxuan's identity in recent years. Logically speaking, no one would harm others and not benefit themselves..."

Ye Hongyu said: "Then we should be safe, right?"

Li Xue said: "I also said that this is normal... But in this era, do you think everyone is normal?"

When Lin Hai heard this, he realized something.

Although he has never been good at dealing with political issues, even now that he is the deputy director of the Chiyan Longjiang branch, he is still not good at it.

But after all, I have been in this position for almost a year and have come into contact with many special events. It is impossible that I have not made any progress at all.

Therefore, when he heard Li Xue say this, he immediately felt guilty: "You mean... those crazy people who joined the evil god sect?"

"Not bad!"

Li Xue nodded, confirming Lin Hai's guess. "In the past few years, with the emergence of the Old Land Anomaly, the infiltration of those evil god sects has become more and more blatant. Taixia has not been affected that much because of its strong control, but you should have come into contact with quite a few in the past few years, right?"

Lin Hai nodded and said, "Indeed, there are far more than before, and this group of lunatics really don't care about their lives. As long as it can help their respective sects expand on the Earth Origin Star, they are not afraid of death at all."

Ye Hongyu was shocked when she heard this: "Why haven't I heard you mention this before?"

Lin Hai scratched his head and said, "I'm just afraid that you'll worry. Besides, do you think I'm in trouble now?"

When Lin Hai said this, he gestured twice in front of Ye Hongyu, indicating that he was in the best condition possible.

"Okay, you two should stop showing off your affection in front of me...what were we talking about just now?" Li Xue said unhappily.

He was too familiar with Lin Hai and Ye Hongyu, so he naturally didn't care about these details.

"The influence of the evil god sect in Taixia is not that great." Lin Hai added for Li Xue. "Oh, yes." Li Xue thought for a moment and continued, "In fact, the ones who are most affected are the Cross Alliance and the Golden Eagle Federation. Conspiracy theories are prevalent there, and they each have soil for the spread of faith."

"Before the Old Earth Incident, they were able to suppress the noise temporarily, but with the Old Earth Incident, the world became more and more chaotic."

"It's not that easy for them to suppress the lunatics of the evil god sect as they did before, especially since they are rapidly expanding their size and the number of members is increasing."

"According to my grandfather and his colleagues' speculation, the top leaders of the Cross Alliance and the Golden Eagle Federation have probably been infiltrated by the evil god sects. Do you think those who have joined the evil god sects will still consider things from the perspective of the overall situation?"

When Li Xue said this, her tone became much more serious.

Because she hoped that Lin Hai and Ye Hongyu could realize the seriousness of the problem and not be at the center of the vortex without knowing it as before.

"You mean, those evil sects might target us in order to create greater chaos?" Lin Hai said in a deep voice.

"I'm glad you understand." Li Xue nodded.

"What should I do? I just want to meet Xiaoxuan, Long'er and the others. Is this not possible?" Ye Hongyu felt a little uncomfortable.

It’s not that she didn’t understand what Li Xue meant, it’s just that she hadn’t seen the children for almost three years, and there had been no news in the meantime.

This is completely different from the feeling the children had when they went on a long trip before.

Rationally, she could understand Li Xue's warning, but emotionally, she didn't want to give up.

"of course can."

A voice suddenly came from behind the two of them, and Lin Hai immediately recognized who the owner of the voice was and turned around immediately.

As expected, he discovered that the person standing behind him was the director of the Chiyan Tianbei branch, his immediate superior - Zhang Ruoyu!

"minister--"

Lin Hai immediately saluted Zhang Ruoyu.

"There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be like this, Brother Lin. You are a few years older than me, so just call me Ruoyu." Zhang Ruoyu said with a smile.

"This, this is not good, right?" Lin Hai was still a little restrained.

He didn't meet Zhang Ruoyu very often. Usually, at most, Li Xue would come to see Ye Hongyu and they would have a meal together.

But Zhang Ruoyu was elusive most of the time. In the past three years, the number of times he had seen Zhang Ruoyu could be counted on one hand.

It was inevitable that I felt a little nervous when I suddenly met him in a private setting.

On the contrary, Ye Hongyu, although also working in Chiyan, was close friends with Li Xue and often heard Li Xue complain about Zhang Ruoyu. As a result, she did not react as strongly to Zhang Ruoyu as her husband did.

In addition, her attention was not on Zhang Ruoyu himself, but on what Zhang Ruoyu had just said:
"Duoduo's father, are you saying that we can go to the old land?"

"That's right." Zhang Ruoyu smiled and nodded, "I just happened to be going to Jiutu recently. Xiaoxue heard from the old man that you were planning to go to Jiutu secretly, so he asked me to leave early so that I can take you along."

"Axue, you..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Hongyu immediately looked at Li Xue excitedly.

"Aren't you feeling wronged now?" Li Xue teased.

"I knew you cared about me the most!" Ye Hongyu walked up to Li Xue and gave her a hug.

At this moment, she finally realized why Li Xue had sent someone to stop them. It turned out that she didn't really intend to stop them, but planned to let Zhang Ruoyu escort them.

She didn't know much about Zhang Ruoyu's strength. Perhaps in this era, someone who could still sit firmly in the position of director of a first-level branch in Chiyan Province must be at the commander-level, and not just an ordinary commander-level!

If Zhang Ruoyu could go with them, it would indeed be much safer than for them to sneak away to the old land.

"Ah Xue, are you going too?"

Ye Hongyu asked again at this time.

"How did you know?" Li Xue asked with a smile.

"You always say that my aesthetic taste is too rustic, but the clothes you wore today are so in line with my aesthetic taste. This doesn't look like an everyday outfit." Ye Hongyu said.

"..."

Li Xue didn't expect that she would be seen through like this.

"Are you going to Jiutu this time for Duoduo?" Lin Hai suddenly asked.

"Let's talk on the way—"

Zhang Ruoyu then signaled Lin Hai and his wife to take their seats first, and snapped his fingers towards the cockpit.

Soon, the private plane they were on began to take off.

It was the first time for Lin Hai and Ye Hongyu to take a private plane, so they were inevitably curious and looked around during takeoff.

It was not until the plane stabilized and the flight attendant came over to pour drinks for the four people and left that Zhang Ruoyu answered the question.

"Brother Lin guessed correctly. Our trip was indeed for Duoduo. To be more precise, we wanted to send Duoduo back to Jiutu!"

Zhang Ruoyu pondered, "In the past three years, Duoduo has laid a solid foundation in the Imperial Capital. In this era, if we don't go back to the old land, we will be left behind by the times. We must make a choice..."

When Li Xue heard this, her face turned a little pale, but she didn't say anything.

Obviously, she and Zhang Ruoyu had discussed this matter beforehand.

"Then when the time comes, should we ask Xiaoxuan to think of a way to see if he can bring Duoduo into his sect?" Ye Hongyu suggested.

"That's not necessary. Duoduo is not going to be a warrior, and I have already found a place for her." Zhang Ruoyu shook his head.

"Well, come to think of it, we haven't seen that girl Duoduo for almost three years..." A trace of nostalgia appeared on Ye Hongyu's face.

She still misses the time when her original children were around her.

……

In the cockpit, the stewardess who had just poured drinks for the four people came to the aisle compartment of the plane and whispered to the corner of her clothes:

"The target has been set—"
