Chapter 2487 - 1123: Haijing God Lin, Shocking the World!
The young guy had just gotten into the business, at that age where he didn’t take anyone seriously, had no idea how deep this circle ran, so he even looked down on Lin Baici.
Because he felt he could do the same.
Nangong Shu couldn’t care less, she just kept grabbing bottles and smashing them over the youth’s head. Even after he’d passed out cold, the boss lady still didn’t stop.
Fuck!!
Slandering my man!
Go to hell!
Ever since Nangong Shu got the news that Lin Baici had been caught up in the Qin Palace Divine Ruins, she hadn’t been sleeping or eating well, and in half a month she’d dropped several pounds.
Before, she thought she was only obsessed with Lin Baici’s face and body, treating him like some pretty boy to be eaten up, but only now did she realize she’d fallen in love with him.
The kind of love that your soul and body both can’t leave!
Thinking of this, Nangong Shu felt like there was a ball of fire burning in her chest, making her want to scream, to go crazy and let it all out.
But only Lin Baici’s powerful thrusts could ease that feeling.
Because the boss lady was addicted to the feeling of Lin Baici pressing down on her.
Red wine, whisky, and the kid’s fresh blood mixed together, pooling on his body.
The bar that had been noisy a moment ago had gone dead quiet; the band leader hurriedly waved his hand, signaling the jazz singer to shut up immediately.
Everyone snuck a quick look toward the bar, then hastily lowered their heads.
Nangong Shu was someone they absolutely could not afford to provoke.
"What a beautiful jasmine flower!"
The phone rang.
The boss lady picked it up and glanced at the screen; it was a veteran information broker.
She stabbed the answer button hard and snapped, "If this isn’t important, next time I’ll stomp your head into paste!"
"Whoa, you’re offering such a rich reward?"
An excited male voice came through the receiver: "If I weren’t in Qinling right now, I’d really want to rush back to Haijing to see Sister Shu."
"Boss lady, when you step on me, can you wear black knee-high boots?"
"You know I like that style!"
This information broker had known the boss lady for twenty years; he was her most loyal pursuer and number one simp.
"Go to hell!"
The boss lady cursed and was about to hang up.
"Sister Shu, don’t hang up, this is serious business!"
The information broker knew Nangong Shu’s temper, so he rushed straight to the point: "It’s about Qin Palace!"
"Qin Palace?"
Nangong Shu had a PTSD-like reaction now; just hearing the name pissed her off: "It expanded again?"
"Listen to me: even if it spread out of the Qinling Mountains and started covering the nearby cities, even if hundreds of thousands died, I wouldn’t give a shit!"
Right now I just want to see my Lin Baici!
"It’s not spreading, it’s fading. Yeah, it’s being purified!"
The information broker also knew Nangong Shu had been in a foul mood lately, so he hurried to spill the scoop before she started cursing him out.
"What?"
Nangong Shu’s pupils suddenly flared wide, her eyes visibly enlarging: "What did you say?"
"The dark mist is dispersing. Based on previous patterns, if nothing unexpected happens, the Qin Palace Divine Ruins has been purified!"
The information broker’s words were thick with disbelief. After all, that was Qin Palace, with off-the-charts pollution intensity and an actual God inside!
Nangong Shu’s expression went a bit blank; her body even swayed twice and she had to grab the bar to steady herself.
She couldn’t help it.
The impact of this news was too much.
"God Xia is really too strong, he’s only been in Qin Palace for a week and he’s already cleared it!"
The information broker’s tone was full of endless worship; Nangong Shu could feel it even through the phone, and it pissed her off.
"What God Xia?"
Nangong Shu snapped, "It was Lin Baici who cleared it!"
"Boss lady, do you really think that’s possible?"
The information broker tried to correct her. Who the hell was Lin Baici? Just some rando from the street! Whether he was even still alive was a big question mark.
"Possible my ass!"
Nangong Shu swore at him, "You got anything else?"
"Nope!"
The information broker chuckled, eager for praise: "Sister Shu, I let you know the second I got this intel!"
"The whole God Hunter circle doesn’t even know yet!"
"Sister Shu, I did good, right?"
"Can’t you give me some kind of reward?"
The information broker really did like Nangong Shu.
"I’ve got a man already!"
The boss lady, excited, signaled to the bartender for a bottle of booze.
Lin Baici definitely was fine.
"I know, I’m an information broker, remember? Just from the way you’ve been, I could guess!"
The information broker wasn’t surprised at all: "What I meant was, next time you and your boyfriend are rolling in bed, could you shoot a little video and send it to me?"
"Ten seconds is enough!"
"Okay, five or six seconds works too!"
"A photo is fine as well!"
The boss lady took several gulps straight from the bottle and ignored that damn pervert; she hung up, then ran upstairs while dialing the other information brokers.
Nangong Shu definitely didn’t rely on just that one news channel.
...
What the hell?
The Qin Palace Divine Ruins has been taken down?
The bartender stared, dumbfounded.
Nangong Shu was right there; the voice on the phone hadn’t been loud, but with the bartender’s hearing, he could still catch those key words and phrases.
But understanding was one thing; the reality was hard to believe.
"Why’d that guy get beat up?"
"He badmouthed Lin Baici a few times!"
"Huh? Just for that he got beaten like this?"
"Rumor is that Haijing god of forest is the boss lady’s boy toy. Looks like it’s eighty percent true now!"
In the bar, the customers who’d just watched Nangong Shu go off were whispering among themselves.
A few minutes later, Nangong Shu came hurrying downstairs, didn’t even have time to change clothes, dragging a suitcase and wearing sunglasses.
"I’ll be out for a few days, you watch the place!"
Nangong Shu had already confirmed that Qin Palace had indeed been purified, but the dark mist was too thick and hadn’t fully dispersed yet, so the exact situation inside was still unknown.
