Chapter 514: Chapter 487: Carried Away in the Mouth (Third update, asking for monthly passes) Chapter 514: Chapter 487: Carried Away in the Mouth (Third update, asking for monthly passes) “So it turns out to be this?
This can also be considered an unexpected turn of events.”
Luo Wangshu sat in the main hall of Lin Mansion’s secret base, listening to Lin Rui’s narration while sipping the hot tea served by Ji Xueying.
She felt all the fatigue in her body disappear clean away in an instant.
Lin Hao handled this matter well.
What was rare was this disciple’s wholehearted protective feelings toward her, which was very gratifying to her as a mentor.
She did not pamper him in vain.
Luo Wangshu then thought about the results of the Great Celestial Master’s astral divination: “This matter being related to the Abyss is indeed a bit troublesome, but it’s not an insurmountable problem.
...
You must have your own plans, right?
How do you intend to deal with it?”
This Divine being is really something; observing the stars for what?
It only made things more complicated.
She naturally wouldn’t honestly return the shard.
This thing just so happens to be able to help her rid herself of the Abyss Pollution.

Originally, Luo Wangshu could only hope for Lin Hao to improve his cultivation and use the Pure Method to help her remove it, but unexpectedly, Hao has managed to secure three pieces of the Divine Tablet for her, which was a pleasant surprise.
Of course, these things must eventually be handed over to that Divine being.
The question is how to return them?

Lin Rui indeed had a plan: “The Demon Sect must be eliminated, but the Bright Holy Sect has no Abyss, making it inconvenient to frame them.
Recently, I have learned that an organization called the Longevity Association from the Outer Heaven Demon is studying the Abyss.
The Luo Family’s hidden demon case was the work of the Longevity Association, and I now have information on the general location of several of their secret bases.”
——In fact, not long ago he had just taken down one, killing 300 Longevity Association members and arresting over 200 people and sending them to jail.
The housekeeper Lu Hanyuan was listening on the side, and after hearing this he felt a chill in his heart, thinking to himself that Master Lin indeed had a ruthless heart.
“The Longevity Association?”
Luo Wangshu’s almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly, then she spoke calmly: “I’ve vaguely heard about them; for now, let’s tentatively choose them.
However, let’s wait another three months before taking any action.
By then, if there is anything I can assist you with as your mentor, feel free to tell me.
If there are more suitable targets in the meantime, we can also change our plan.”
She then looked at Lin Rui: “Where did the subordinates who helped you transport the Divine Tablet come from?
Are they reliable?”
“Very reliable; their lives are tied to mine!”
Lin Rui bowed: “My mentor may not know that recently, the prices of major goods from the Heavenly Demon Origin have sky-rocketed.
I’ve made a few big deals with some people, earning a great profit.
Having money in hand and being the Commander of the Spy Detection Bureau with divine favor, I was lucky enough to hire many experts.
Most of them are desperados with cases hanging over them, so it’s not convenient for them to appear in public.”
“Have you heard?
Spy Detection Bureau Commander Lin Hao has been granted the Divine Office of the Great Chief Priest of the Divine Palace at Fourth Rank!”
“How could such a big event go unheard?
It’s remarkable, I remember there are 12 Divine Envoy candidates, and now there are four who are Fourth Rank Great Chief Priests of the Divine Palace.”
“Only two, Shentu Rong and Situ Xiu, had their Divine Offices revoked due to incompetence and inability to handle their duties.
These two really have had terrible luck in recent years.”
“Do you not know?
Last night, the Divine Palace also bestowed a set of Heavenly Demon Armor to Lin Hao, with an Inner Eunuch accompanying the Great Chief Priest to the Lin Mansion.
They say the armor was marked with the Nine Chapters!
This is the ceremonial privilege of a Prince and Crown Prince.”
“The Divine Envoy even gave him so much power; even obtaining the military dispatch token for the armies in Luojing and the Abyss.
In the entire history of Great Song since the establishment of the Spy Detection Bureau, no Commander has held such substantial authority.
He’s practically equivalent to the Crown Prince, if not the Crown Prince, then better than one!”
“I wonder what made the Divine so furious that he insists on pursuing and eradicating the Bright Holy Sect?”
“Be careful!
That’s the Divine’s business, not something for us to speculate on.
But I did hear something strange; Third Divine Envoy Luo Wangshu finished her meditation last night, left the palace immediately, stayed the whole night at Lin Mansion, and only emerged the next morning.
It’s said that when she entered the palace, Divine Envoy Luo was radiant, a stark contrast to her dejection and exhaustion from the day before.”
“What’s so strange about that?
She’s Commander Lin’s master, staying a night at her disciple’s house is nothing out of the ordinary, right?
Umm~ I see what you mean, Divine Envoy Luo does seem quite close to her disciple, even physically affectionate at times.”
“No way?
Are you suggesting there’s something illicit between Divine Envoy Luo and Commander Lin?”
“What do you mean, ‘illicit’?
How harsh you sound; they are both unmarried.”
Zhao Yang, the Imperial Censor of Great Song—that is, Linghu Mingde—couldn’t help but become infuriated.
“Silence!”
As soon as Linghu Mingde spoke, he noticed all the surrounding officials turning their heads in shock to look at him.
Realizing the impropriety, he immediately swept his robe sleeves aside and bellowed angrily, “How dare you babble and gossip in the solemn grounds of the Imperial City?
And how dare you speculate and criticize the Third Divine Envoy and the Spy Detection Bureau Commander’s teacher-disciple relationship?”
His thunderous outburst disciplined the group of officials who betrayed courtly decorum, while he inwardly frowned deeply.
These people from Tianji Star, although their civilization is very similar to ancient East Asia in many ways, differ significantly in customs and traditions.
Even in the current Earth Federation, a romance between teacher and disciple is considered a violation of norms, yet the people of Tianji Star don’t care much about it and see it as nothing unusual.
Linghu Mingde anxiously worried, thinking to himself what his granddaughter was really thinking?
If she kept dawdling, with no move made, the prize before her might just be snatched away by someone else!
