One person: After starting with the academic atmosphere, I'll take down Xia He!

The scene of vigorously growing enoki mushrooms that day is still vivid in my mind, but now the glass beads that Lao Ma gave me have completely become decorations.

Now that she holds the Chunyang Sword Box, if she were to be struck, she would probably die peacefully.

If these two really attend the event, the others will definitely have no chance of survival.

After a moment's hesitation, Ma Long said, "You two are our Savior Palace's trump cards!"

How can it be easily displayed?

For this small matter, Yan Yan and I are enough!

Wang Ye also came over to persuade him, saying, "Junior Uncle is right!"

My dear sisters and great-aunts, you don't need to help.

Next time, the next time there's a dangerous mission, it'll definitely be your turn!

Under the persuasion of Ma Long and Wang Ye, Feng Baobao and Chen Duo had no choice but to agree not to participate for the time being, but they would definitely go to Zhejiang with Ma Long.

Ma Long readily agreed: "Of course! Zhejiang is a great place, let's go and have some fun!"

After everyone had finalized the list of participants, they were about to leave when Wang Zhenqiu asked a question.

"Brother Ma Long, where should we go to play now!"

The Dragon and Tiger Showdown is scheduled for the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, which is still more than ten days away, so there's no rush.

After being reminded by Wang Zhenqiu, Ma Long suddenly realized that the Chinese New Year was just around the corner!

No, I have to hurry back to the Salvation Palace; I can't keep Xia He waiting.

"Ball~ Xiao Wang~ Xiao Zhen, aren't you going home for the New Year?"

Go find your mother and give her my regards!

Wang Zhenqiu snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "I have no mother, and I have no home!"

What kind of New Year do we celebrate?

What seemed like a casual remark contained sorrow, casting a shadow over even Wang Zhenqiu's delicate face.

The crowd looked at each other in bewilderment: 'No wonder he's so crazy, he must have gone through a lot of suffering!'

They have no home anymore; they are truly pitiful.

Malone asked slowly, "Don't you have any relatives left?"

Seeing everyone's sympathy for him, Wang Zhenqiu chuckled and said, "Hehe, don't pity me!"

My supervisor in the Southwest invited me to his home for the Chinese New Year, but I declined.

I originally planned to spend this time with Lao Xia, but meeting you all made it even more fun!

Tell me, where are you planning to spend the Chinese New Year?

When he posed this question, everyone fell into a moment of contemplation, and then they all looked at Malone in unison.

"Uh... let's go back to headquarters first!"

Let's discuss it again when we get back!

Ma Long was also undecided for a moment: "It's usually simpler to celebrate the New Year in Wudang Mountain, and it's not as lively as in the secular world."

I won't be going back to Wudang Mountain this year; I'll be going to headquarters instead.

Let's go back and check first!

The group embarked on their return journey.

……

The secret base of the Yaoxing Society in the Northwest Desert.

Qu Tong, dressed in revealing clothing, is talking to someone through a ring crafted by Ma Xianhong.

"Did the company send Wang Zhenqiu to urge Ma Long to attend the meeting?"

"Hmph! They're probably just adding more manpower to that kid's ranks!"

A muffled, neither-male-nor-female voice came from the ring: "Ma Long went to Biyou Village first, but only stayed for one night."

They held a bonfire party, presumably a celebration before the new year.

I think this is Ma Long trying to cover up his true intentions; his main purpose is to go to Liupanshui.

He went to see Mei Jinfeng, but didn't stay long, and it's unclear what he asked her.

Ma Long is currently on his way back to the Hubei Salvation Palace.

Qu Tong nodded after hearing this: "Yes, Mei Jinfeng?"

Haha, alright, now that Malone has dug you out, I'll make good use of you!

There's nothing going on in Biyou Village, so it's fine to leave it under Ma Long's supervision.

The ring continued to ask, "Boss! Is Ma Xianhong alright?"

I've noticed he's been acting strangely lately. Could it be a side effect of his last craniotomy?

Qu Tong remained silent for a long time before saying, "With my current methods, the only way to delete a large area of ​​memories and prevent self-repair as much as possible is through craniotomy."

I've tried my best to minimize the scars, but I can't repair the scars left by amnesia.

Ma Xianhong probably doesn't realize this.

You don't need to worry about his affairs!

I will keep an eye on him.

Hmph! Those eight extraordinary skills are so despicable, they actually have such high entry requirements.

Otherwise, why would I have spent so much effort?

Keep a close eye on what's going on inside the company!

There was a moment of silence from within the ring, followed by a sobbing voice: "Boss!"

I'm terrified!

They've already noticed that Zhao Fangxu makes many decisions on his own without consulting us.

I'm terrified of the Lunar New Year now, and I can't sleep soundly. When will this ever end, boss?

I feel like I can't hold on much longer!

Upon hearing this, Qu Tong frowned, a nameless killing intent flashing in the corner of her eye, and her lips twitched into a straight line.

He let out a long sigh and said, "Sigh! You have to hang in there!"

We're about to win!

You are an elite we have nurtured; you must withstand the pressure.

Believe me, very soon, really very soon…

……

Ma Long and his group of seven arrived at the Salvation Palace, only to find Wang Zhenqiu's plaster stuck to him, much to Ma Long's dismay.

Xia He, dressed in a charming long robe, gracefully walked out: "Heh!"

My little devil, you still know to come back? I thought you'd forgotten your sister.

"They're not coming back for the Chinese New Year!"

Ma Long quickly stepped forward and explained, "How could that be!"

As soon as I finished my business, I rushed back, afraid that my sister would be waiting anxiously.

How could I not come back!

If you don't believe me, ask Bao Bao and Duo Duo; they can both testify.

Seeing that Xia He didn't say anything, Ma Long thought he had gotten away with it by sheer luck.

Seeing the commotion, Wang Zhenqiu went over and gently tugged at Ma Long's sleeve: "Oh my, this is the famous, beautiful, and charming Xia He!"

The name "Bone Scraper" is truly well-deserved.

Brother Ma Long, you already have Sister Xia He, so why did you bring her back?

How annoying!

At this moment, Wang Zhenqiu's voice was unusually shy, completely unlike its previous androgynous tone.

The listener's heart raced, their bones felt like they were melting, and they even felt a little nauseous.

Xia He's eyes sharpened, and her aura deepened. She first sized up the beautiful Wang Zhenqiu for a moment, then looked solemnly at Ma Long.

'Found another one? Doesn't Longlong like flat-chested items?'

Is this a change of pace?

Ma Long had just passed one hurdle when Wang Zhenqiu came to cause trouble: "Holy crap!"

Are you a fucking clip?

Don't mess with me!

"Hey, stop pinching me! You're a guy, stop messing around!"

Ma Long turned around and angrily rebuked Wang Zhenqiu, which greatly aroused his interest.

"My brother already knew she was a boy, and he even said he could accept her."

Are you going to renege on your debt now?

"Holy crap, stop it!"

Wang Zhenqiu, you son of a bitch!

While Ma Long was still arguing, Xia He grabbed his ear.

"Sister, please stop! This guy is messing with me, it's not what you think!"

There was no time to explain before Ma Long was dragged inside by Xia He.

"Come on, come into the house with me!"
