The 'woman' in white walked all the way east and came to Nanshan Community, which was south of the eastern street. The apartment facilities here were old, the buildings were dilapidated, and the streets were covered with all kinds of garbage and leaves. The environmental and sanitary conditions were even worse than that of the town and county nursing homes.

This residential area was a common unfinished building area in every city in the world.

The original developer of this apartment was Ryukyu. Later, after the National Party was defeated, the Ryukyu businessmen returned to Ryukyu Island, leaving this unfinished building group idle here for more than 20 years.

The problem of unfinished buildings was the biggest worry of a city. Not only did it take up a large area of land, but it also greatly affected the city's appearance. However, whether it was to continue the completion and acceptance, or to reject it for reuse, it was a huge sum of money. The Canghai City government naturally did not intend to pay this money to clean up the mess for others.

It was a pity that this made the owners suffer. After all, the developer had run away, so there was naturally no way to complain. Fortunately, the buildings were basically completed, and they could still live with a little renovation.

The woman in white walked to the door of a room on the sixth floor. She took out one of the keys and opened the door. As she closed the door, she took off her hat, wig, and white dress, revealing her shirt and pants.

Li Dong heaved a sigh of relief and muttered to himself," It's been a long time since I changed my appearance. I thought I would be exposed. It was a scare but not a danger.”

At this moment, the little fox sent out a spiritual sense that it wanted to come out. Li Dong released it from the World in the Sleeve. A snow-white little fox jumped out with the fluctuation of space and landed lightly on the ground. When it raised its head, it realized that it was in an unfamiliar environment. It was narrow and dirty, with only about 50 square meters of space. There was a simple bed, a table, and a chair. The window was open to the east, and next to it was the bathroom.

The little fox immediately shouted in a panic,"Oh, Li Dong, w-what is this place? It smelled so bad and looked so dirty.”

"This is my second stop, and also my secret hiding place. I might not be able to return to my original apartment for the time being, so I can only live here for a period of time.”

"Ah?"

Hearing this, the little fox immediately revealed a depressed expression. Its furry ears drooped as it said listlessly,"Why do we have to live in such a place?”

"I've been targeted. If I continue to live in my original residence, those people might do something extreme. I don't want to worry and be afraid all day long.”Li Dong was lying on a dusty sofa with his eyes slightly closed as if he was planning to take a nap.

Su Qiaoqiao lightly jumped onto Li Dong's belly and curled up into a ball. She then asked,""Is the person targeting you very strong?"

"Very weak. They are just a bunch of trash who only know how to fight the weak.”The corners of Li Dong's mouth curled up, and his tone was filled with disdain.

"Then why are you hiding from them? Can't we kill them all?"

" If it were just a few wasps, I would have killed them on the spot. Unfortunately, someone poked the hornet's nest this time, but I'm the one taking the blame. Even if I killed all these wasps, I'm afraid I'll have to pay a big price. Besides, I can't do this because it will cause a lot of social unrest. As a positive young man of the motherland, I don't want the rest of my life to be ruined by trash like them.”

Li Dong knew very well that so many people had died that day, but it did not cause a stir in society because someone had suppressed this matter. However, if he had used the method of suppressing evil to make the matter blow up to the point that it could not be resolved, then his own outcome would definitely not be any better than the outcome of the underworld. After all, those who could suppress these things would definitely have the power to mobilize the country. Although Li Dong was now a cultivator, in the face of the state machine... It was still impossible to escape.

"But what if they come back?”The little fox asked worriedly.

Li Dong opened his eyes and smiled.""Qiaoqiao, after knowing each other for so long, you've finally asked a valuable question.”

Knowing that she was being ridiculed, the little fox bit Li Dong's waist hard.

"Hiss ~~" Li Dong sucked in a breath of cold air and cursed,""Stupid fox, it hurts."

" But you're right. If they come looking for us, it's indeed a problem. Hiding is not a solution…"

The little fox thought for a moment and asked curiously,"Why don't you let your sect help you? Logically speaking, for you to be able to go to the Mountain and Sea Realm, you must have an Immortal sect backing you up. At the very least, you must have a large sect with its own dojo. After all, teleportation portals required a large base and regular maintenance. Each activation required a large amount of spiritual qi, and it was not something that small sects and rogue cultivators could use at will. Don't tell me you sneaked in. The chances of that happening were close to zero.”

"Uh, you're right, but I really haven't joined any sects. Although the Daoists have helped me a lot, and even sent me to the Mountain and Sea Realm, that doesn't mean that they're willing to sacrifice anything for me.”Moreover, Li Dong had a feeling that the Daoists might have other unknown motives for helping him.

"Are you really human? Why do I feel like you're a country bumpkin who crawled out of a mountain valley? You don't even have the most basic common sense of biological species.”

"Huh?" Li Dong looked at it in disbelief, wondering why this little fellow would have such a ridiculous idea.

" Because although you are an extremely smart person, you have neglected the most basic truth. Or rather, your paranoia has caused you to have some prejudice against the laws.”

"Oh?" Li Dong was instantly amused, but he didn't interrupt it. He wanted to hear what Su Qiaoqiao was going to say next.

"Although humans are the leader of all living things, they are still one of the living beings in the world. Therefore, many principles are actually common. In our race, the strong set the rules. Whatever the clansmen obtain, the strongest person in the race usually has the right to enjoy and distribute it first. Therefore, the strong take the best things, distribute the second-best things to their immediate family members, distribute them to other clansmen, and give the weakest things to the weaker groups in the race. This is an unchanging law since ancient times. I believe that you humans are the same. If that's the case, why did you choose to go to the Mountain and Sea Realm?”

Li Dong was speechless. He didn't understand why the Taoists would choose him, nor did he understand why the Headmaster of Academy would help him. He just had an inexplicable trust in them, but this feeling made him panic.

"The Mountain and Sea Realm is indeed very dangerous, but the benefits are relative. Not to mention that the beasts themselves are an important resource for cultivators, the heavenly and earthly treasures alone are enough to keep an Immortal Sect prosperous. This is an important opportunity that will determine the rise and fall of a sect. If it isn't for the core members of the sect, do you think it would be possible?”

"Heh, what does this have to do with you? A mere pet dares to lecture me?”Li Dong picked up Su Qiaoqiao's hand and mocked her with disdain.

"Wha…you're the pet! "I'm clearly your master. If it weren't for the inexplicable accident, why would I sign a symbiotic contract with you? Wu…" The little fox was so angry that it struggled in the air with its claws bared.

However, Li Dong couldn't be bothered with it and directly threw it into Universe Creator.""You're just a stupid fox, yet you still want to be my master. You're just a beast, yet you still want to climb onto my head? What a joke, a huge joke."

Unfortunately, Li Dong could not bring himself to laugh. He had to admit that Su Qiaoqiao's words made sense, but this also raised a question. What was his relationship with Taoism? He had been living in the city since he was eleven years old, and his memory traced back to when he was nine years old. He had been living in his hometown in the countryside. If he really had a relationship with Taoism, then it would be the blank area of his memory before he was nine years old.

However, how could a nine-year-old child like him have anything to do with the cultivation world? As for having a blank memory, it was nothing strange. Li Dong had asked many people, and most of them had very vague memories before the age of seven or eight. Some even had no memory of anything before the age of seven or eight, so there was naturally nothing strange about it.

"Is it really possible that it's a past before the age of nine?”Li Dong thought for a while and shook his head. Although he was indeed born with divine strength, cultivators did not use strength as a standard to measure their strength. His aptitude for cultivation was not good. This was what the Headmaster had told him himself. Since he had no value in cultivation, how could he have a deep relationship with Taoism?

Li Dong, who really couldn't figure it out, decided to stop thinking about it. He began to clean the house. Speaking of which, he hadn't been here for more than two years, but the rent had never stopped. He would transfer the money to the landlord regularly.

He did not choose Nanshan Community at random. He had carefully selected and investigated the final secret location. Nanshan Community was only six or seven kilometers away from the city center. There was a school two streets away, and it only took about half an hour for students to walk to school. Although it was surrounded by bustling cities, it was more suitable for hiding.

The most important thing was that the rent was cheap. In the unfinished building area of Nanshan Community, a room of 30 to 40 square meters was only 400 yuan a month, including the utility fee. For people like Li Dong who didn't live often, it was only 200 yuan a month. Moreover, they didn't need to sign any contract with the landlord to live here. They just needed to carry their bags and didn't have to worry about exposing their whereabouts and basic personal information.

After spending half a day cleaning up the room, Li Dong cleared out six to seven bags of trash. After cleaning up the room, Li Dong went to the flower and bird market to buy a few bags of bamboo rice. The so-called bamboo rice was actually the seeds of bamboo. Bamboo rarely bloomed, and once it bloomed, it would immediately die. The rice-like particles that fell from the bamboo flowers were bamboo rice.

The reason why Li Dong bought the bamboo rice was to plant a bamboo forest near the thatched hut in the World of Heaven and Earth, just like the Headmaster's Greenwood Residence in the Immortal Realm. He had his own considerations as to why he did not directly use the bamboo near Greenwood Residence.

After all, the bamboo in the Immortal Land was different from the ordinary bamboos that were born and bred in the Immortal Land. They were contaminated with the spiritual qi of the Immortal Land from the moment they were born. Therefore, in order to hide the other natural treasures that Li Dong had brought out from Greenwood Residence, they had to choose the original bamboo. This was also considered from a long-term perspective.

After re-entering the World of Heaven and Earth, Li Dong realized that the dumb fox was not in the grass hut. He found it in the back mountain the moment he spread out his spiritual sense. The World of Heaven and Earth was different from the outside world, and the World in the Sleeve recognized Li Dong as its master. Therefore, the size of the space here was within his mind. This meant that no matter how high the cultivation of foreign self-cultivators was, they would not be able to spread their spiritual sense throughout the entire World of Heaven and Earth.

Controlling the distance of space was equivalent to shrinking the earth into an inch. In other words, Li Dong could teleport to any place he wanted in the Universal World.

"What are you doing?" Li Dong looked at the little fox in front of him who was digging a hole with her snow-white butt and asked curiously.

The little fox retreated and shook its body a few times to shake off the dust on its body. It stared straight at the hole and said,"There seems to be a water source down here."

"Huh?" Li Dong asked in surprise. You know geography too? Back in the Mountain and Sea Realm, he hadn't noticed anything.”

"What a fuss! All living creatures have the instinct to find water sources. Even ordinary wild beasts have this ability, not to mention that I have the bloodline of an ancient divine beast from the Heavenly Fox Race. It's not difficult for me to find water sources.”The little fox raised her head arrogantly as if she was very impressive.

Li Dong smiled and shook his head. He squatted down and pinched a handful of yellow soil in his hand. Then, he reached into the hole and took out a handful of sulfur soil. He placed it in front of his nose and asked. Then, he looked at the little fox and said with some praise in his eyes,"There is indeed a water source here, and it's the Yin Yang Spring.”

"Oh? What is the Yin Yang Spring?" The little fox asked in confusion.

" This mountain is an active volcano. The top of the mountain is where the water is condensed. It is the source of the lake at the foot of the mountain. The hot spring in the crater flows down the mountain and gathers into a lake. The lake water is evaporated into water vapor by the heat of the mountain. The water vapor in the crater returns to the volcano through the rain. As the two places are close to each other, one is cold and the other is hot. The surrounding ecology can rely on these two water sources to maintain balance. Therefore, it is called the Yin-Yang Spring Eye or the Double-eyed Spring.”

"This place is an excellent Feng Shui treasure land.”Li Dong said with satisfaction. Earth, water, fire, and wind were the most basic elements that formed a world, especially the Water Element Qi. It was the source of all life.

"Sometimes, I really admire you. You only need to look at the rocks and touch the rocks to know the situation of the entire mountain range. How did you do it?”Su Qiaoqiao asked. Ever since she had met Li Dong, she felt that this human was unfathomable.

Li Dong smiled and couldn't help but feel that he had a good mother.""The knowledge of geography is a valuable asset that has been summed up by countless ancestors. If you can master this geographical knowledge, you can be like me. You can see a hundred miles from a mountain and a thousand years from a lake.”

……

……

Just as Li Dong was working hard, in the wealthy district not far from the affordable apartment, a young girl dressed in Chinese clothes stumbled into a villa, reeking of alcohol. However, no one noticed her.

As soon as he entered the room, he seemed to have deliberately fallen drunk on another silver-haired girl, refusing to get up no matter what.

Xu Rong was already used to her best friend's rude character and did not want to argue with her. Instead, he asked,"Why did you come back alone? Where's Er 'Lai?"

"Wine, good wine! "I can still drink…burp ~~" Li Qinglian acted as if she wanted a kiss from her beautiful sister before she would get up. However, when she noticed the blue veins on Xu Rong's forehead with her slightly hazy drunk eyes, judging from the painful lessons she had learned in the past, Xu Rong was most likely going to fly into a rage.

So Li Qinglian said in extremely concise and clear words,"Er 'Lai has returned to the Celestial Prison because he has exhausted his magic power. He won't be able to come back for a while.”

"Where's the eight trigrams disk?"

"Here!" Li Qinglian obediently took out the Innate Eight Trigrams Disk from her chest and handed it to Xu Rong.

Seeing this, Xu Rong heaved a sigh of relief and put away the Eight Trigrams Disk. Li Qinglian said unhappily,"Hey, Xu Rong, what's the meaning of your expression?”

"…I was worried that you would secretly trade the eight trigrams disc for wine.”Xu Rong said truthfully.

"Huh? Do I look like an unreliable person?”

"You don't look like it, you are. Let me ask you, five years ago, I was sent here by my family, where did the sixth grade immortal clothing I gave you go?”

" Uh..." Li Qinglian was suddenly speechless. Although she felt guilty, she still tried to defend herself,"" Such a precious robe naturally has to be treasured. How can it be casually taken out…"

"If only it was as you said. The reason why I chose the Daoist robe as a gift was because you had the bad habit of exchanging your personal belongings for wine. Other than your personal clothes, you also pawned your sword, magic treasures, spiritual jade, and even the first-grade magic treasure that Little Sister Zimei gave you, the Mirage Dragon Gourd. Zimei's situation is the worst among us, but she has to spend a lot of money to redeem the treasures you pawned for you every time. It's just that I didn't expect that even if I gave you the robe, it would still be difficult to escape the misfortune of being pawned.”Xu Rong said bitterly, looking at her with a headache.

Li Qinglian couldn't hold back her embarrassment no matter how thick-skinned she was. However, she still wanted to quibble, but she had completely lost her confidence."No, I really didn't sell it. It's such an expensive thing. How could I…Uh, right…"

"With your personality, it's too easy for you to offend those people with high status and authority who care about their reputation. These people are most likely narrow-minded and extremely vengeful, afraid that they will plot against you behind your back. However, you're always drunk and only wear a 2nd grade Mortal Spiritual Robe. How can Zimei and I not be worried? That's why I'm giving you a high-grade robe, hoping that it can protect your life at a critical moment.”

"Aiya, General Xu, don't worry about me. I'm not that easy to deal with.”

Xu Rong sighed helplessly and lectured,"Qinglian, I've brought this up today not to embarrass you, nor to ask you for a robe. I just hope that you can correct your character. I know that every Reincarnator's character will be more or less affected by the memories of their ancestors, but I have to remind you that Li Taibai is Li Taibai, and you are you. Li Taibai has always been free and unrestrained, but you don't have to be like him.”

"I understand, Rongrong, you don't have to worry about me.”Li Qinglian said with a smile. However, this smile seemed a little weak and pale.

Xu Rong understood Qing Lian's situation. After all, the Righteous Alliance was like most factions in the world. There were many factions within the alliance, and they were not united. There were those who supported the Alliance Master's Reincarnator to succeed the Alliance Master position, but there were also those who opposed it and those who sat on the fence.

The Xu family behind Xu Rong and the Li family behind Li Qinglian were both staunch leaders of the alliance. As the Xu family was weak, their influence gradually weakened. They had almost no real power in the alliance, so they would not be squeezed out. The Li family had still received a lot of blessings in the past, so they still had a certain influence in the alliance and could mobilize some resources. As the main opposition, the three judicial departments naturally had to suppress the aristocratic families like the Li family, so as to occupy more power and interests in the Tiandi Alliance.

"Our family's situation is indeed very difficult, but as long as the Alliance Master can return smoothly, these problems will no longer be a problem. Qinglian, I hope that you can return to the alliance and try to find out what the Xiang Dragon, Huben, Snow Wolf, Chu Dog, and Zi Shu are thinking. If you can get their support, it will be much easier for the alliance leader to return.”

This idea had been lingering in Xu Rong's mind for many years, but there would definitely be many obstacles when it was implemented, especially since the Five Guards of the Earth Army had always maintained a neutral position. It would be extremely difficult for them to side with anyone.

"The Five Guards of the Earth Word Army, Rongrong, I'm not trying to be disheartening, but it's impossible to get their support. If the Yu Gong Nine State Conference could go on as usual, perhaps we might still be able to get more than half of their support. Unfortunately, the conference has already stagnated for several hundred years, and even if I don't ask, I'm sure you know better than me what the current state of the soldiers is like. After all, you've been in the Tiger Troop's army in your previous lives.”

Hearing this, Xu Rong gritted his teeth and said with an ugly expression,"I naturally know that most of the soldiers in the army have lost their spirit over the past few hundred years. As long as the Yu Gong Nine State Conference is not held, they will forever lose the opportunity to advance to the Heaven rank. There are also those old generals who have been the commandants of the five guards all year round. Compared to the slim chance of advancement, maintaining the status quo is what they want.”

"But I still believe it! Most of the people in the army were still hot-blooded. They were definitely looking forward to the reopening of the Yu Gong Nine State Conference. One day, they would be able to follow the Alliance Master to make contributions and realize their dreams.”

"Sigh, alright, I will do my best. However, no matter what the outcome is, it will ultimately depend on little brother Li Dong. If he spends his life muddle-headedly, then no matter how much we do, it will be useless.”

After saying this, Li Qinglian turned into a breeze and left.

Xu Rong came to the window and looked at the apartment in the distance. He muttered to himself,"That won't happen. Those people won't allow him to live an ordinary life like this. Therefore, I have to accumulate more strength for my lord. I can't let Xu Shidi's tragedy repeat itself! Never!"

The glow of the sunset shone on Xu Rong's body. The holy brilliance was like a small golden sun that breathed out a scorching breath. The furnishings in the room were covered with a thin layer of gold powder. The surrounding Primordial Qi gathered into a vortex in the Sea of Qi on Xu Rong's right palm. She gently crushed the colorful Qi ball. The space rippled, and a part of the purer Primordial Qi turned into Spiritual Qi and entered her body through her white skin.

It was as if a holy light enveloped Xu Rong's entire body. With his silver-white hair and mixed-blood appearance, he was simply like an angel in the eyes of otakus.

However, the strange thing was that although Xu Rong had refined Yuan Qi into her body, she only left the pure Spiritual Qi in her skin, bones, and meridians. There were only two possibilities for this situation. One, her cultivation had not yet reached the Golden Elixir Stage, and her inner core had not yet formed, so the Spiritual Qi could only be used to transform her body. Two, she did not have any talent in cultivation, but was a legendary martial artist who had at least reached the fifth realm of the seven realms of martial artists, the peak of the Houtian Martial Realm!
