Chapter 2557 Everything went smoothly, and the problems were solved bit by bit
"Yes! There must be!"
Hearing Ling Tian's words, Captain Qi hurriedly said, "I happen to have a place like this. This isn't a big deal. Brother, leave this to me. I won't let you down. Really, I'll tell you the location by tomorrow night at the latest. How about that?"
"it is good!"
Ling Tian didn't have too many requirements for this. As long as no one disturbed Lin Qi, there would be no problem.
Although Captain Qi might have misunderstood his meaning, Ling Tian was too lazy to explain. It would only take a week anyway. When the martial arts competition started a week later, they would launch the action. After the action, it would be the day to leave Licheng, so it didn't matter.
So after Ling Tian agreed, he said goodbye to Captain Qi, left the city wall, and rushed to his residence.
When he came back, it was already past five in the morning. He thought everyone else was still asleep, but when he opened the door, he found Yuzhe and Lin Qi sitting in the living room, both of them with worried looks on their faces.
The sound of Ling Tian pushing the door open made the two of them react. After looking up and seeing that it was Ling Tian, Lin Qi hurriedly stood up and walked over to him and said, "Brother, you're back? Where did you go? We can't get in touch with you. We're so worried."
"Hmm?" Ling Tian smiled helplessly, then looked at Lin Qi, then at Yu Zhe and said, "So you're feeling so bad because of me? Do you think something happened to me?"
"That's right!" Lin Qi nodded. "Brother, I sent you countless messages with my watch, but you didn't reply. I was worried, afraid that something had happened to you. So, brother, where have you been?"
"I went to meet with Captain Qi, and then..."
Ling Tian sat on the sofa and told her everything that had happened to him that night, including his meeting with Jiujiu.
As for Jiujiu, Yuzhe didn't know her identity, but Lin Qi knew it very well.
After all, he came from the Holy Mountain with me, and we knew each other quite well.
So after hearing that Jiujiu was also near Licheng and was willing to provide assistance, Lin Qi couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Brother, are you sure Jiujiu won't attack us secretly? After all, no matter what, she is still our opponent. Back then in the Holy Mountain, she almost killed us. This..."
Hearing Lin Qi's concerns, Ling Tian simply shook his head. "Don't worry, Jiujiu and I are on the same side. I promised to take her to the central city after we find the passage. Even for this purpose, she will help us and won't hinder us. You can rest assured."
Hearing this, Lin Qi looked at Ling Tian. Seeing that he had such a high opinion of Jiujiu, Lin Qi didn't say anything more.
Since Ling Tian thinks there is no problem, then there is no need to worry. What he needs to do is to help Ling Tian and then work with them to overthrow the city lord. This is his main task.
So Lin Qi didn't dwell on Jiujiu anymore, but changed the subject and said, "Brother, this week I'll..."
"Captain Qi will find a place for you to practice tomorrow. You will still follow the previous plan and improve your realm. This is what you need to do. The rest... leave it to us."
"understand!"
Lin Qi's matter was settled. Yu Zhe looked at Lin Qi, then at Ling Tian and said, "Mr. Ling, what about me?"
"Hmm?" Ling Tian looked at Yuzhe with a hint of confusion: "What's wrong?"
"What should I do? I know I don't have much ability, but shouldn't I also do something that needs to be done? I don't want to be unable to help at all. I want to work hard with you and fight against the city lord with you!"
After he finished speaking, Yuzhe looked at Ling Tian seriously, as if waiting for him to assign him a task.
Ling Tian smiled faintly upon hearing this: "You also have things you need to do. Tomorrow..."
Ling Tian quickly handed a small task to Yuzhe, which was also a way to prepare some trump cards for himself in advance, just in case, when danger occurred, he could successfully escape from trouble.
When Ling Tian finished speaking his thoughts, Yuzhe said with surprise in his eyes: "Mr. Ling, this..."
"Yes, it is to prevent some accidents from happening. This task is given to you. Can you do it?"
"Of course!" Yuzhe nodded hurriedly. "Since this is the task Mr. Ling has assigned to me, I will definitely not let you down. Don't worry, I will definitely give my all to complete this task."
"it is good."
Ling Tian smiled faintly upon hearing this, and was quite satisfied with Yuzhe's reaction.
After arranging what the two of them needed to do, Ling Tian stood up, stretched, and said, "Alright, let's all get some rest, and then start preparing. This time, we must succeed. If we fail, all of us will be in danger and unable to recover."
"understand!"
Ling Tian nodded, got up and went back to the bedroom to lie down. It was already eight o'clock in the morning.
He looked at the sunlight outside the window and wanted to take a rest. However, before he closed his eyes for a minute, there was a knock on the door, and then Lin Qi walked in.
Hearing the voice, Ling Tian sat up. When he saw that it was Lin Qi, he was slightly startled and asked curiously: "What's wrong? Is there something you want to tell me?"
"Brother! I...want to discuss with you whether I can properly participate in this martial arts tournament."
After Lin Qi finished speaking, he sat on the chair in Ling Tian's bedroom, clasped his hands together, lowered his head slightly and said, "I know, big brother, you guys want to attack the city lord during the martial arts competition, but can you let me participate in at least one or two competitions before you take action?"
"Although I'm very grateful for Big Brother's training during this period, and I know that Big Brother has been silently helping me all along, I want to test my own limits and see how capable I am. So, I want to have a good fight with others and see for myself."
After he finished speaking, Lin Qi looked up at Ling Tian, his eyes full of pleading and determination.
Seeing Lin Qi's eyes, Ling Tian was also slightly stunned, and asked curiously: "Why do you have such thoughts? Do you think you are not capable enough? Or..."
"Neither." Lin Qi shook his head: "I just don't want to be under the protection of my eldest brother for the rest of my life. I hope I can also have the strength to fight and be able to face some unexpected dangers, but I know that I don't have the opportunity to test my ability, so..."
"This tournament is very important to me, big brother, so could you please... let me have one or two bouts before taking on the city lord? Give me a chance to test my limits, big brother, please!"
