Chapter 284: Sinful Russell

Chapter 284 The sinful Russell

Zhang Jingxing certainly knew that Amina was not Russell's child. After all, not to mention how he raised a child to such a big age in such a short time, just from the looks of the two people, it can be seen that the two are not related by blood: "It's just a joke, little brother, don't take it seriously."

Hearing this, Russell swallowed back the words of explanation that were already on the tip of his throat: "Big Brother, please don't say such scary words in a serious manner."

He was still a young man in his early twenties, but he could not accept such slander.

After making a joke to ease the atmosphere a little, Zhang Jingxing asked, "Now let's get down to business. Where have you been, Junior Brother?"

"We are all very worried."

Russell smiled bitterly: "I was teleported to Great Britain by the space turbulence caused by Greg's ability."

"It took a lot of effort to get back to Ming Dynasty."

When Zhang Jingxing heard the word Great Britain, he was stunned for a moment.

Although he thought that his junior brother might have gone outside the Ming Dynasty, he never expected that it would be Great Britain, a country 18,000 miles away from the Ming Dynasty.

Soon, Russell recounted in detail what happened after that day.

However, some details that might expose his identity as a member of the Qiling Society were concealed.

For example, how did we return to the Ming Dynasty?

Of course, Zhang Jingxing was not planning to delve into the details because he had been confused by the news thrown out by Russell.

That is the news about [World Devouring **].

At this time, he didn't even care about Russell. Instead, he said solemnly, "If the information you got is correct, then it can indeed explain why the secret realm has been appearing more and more frequently in recent years."

"No, I have to report to Master Fang and Master Ji immediately. Junior brother, you should go back and rest first."

After he finished speaking, Zhang Jingxing left in a hurry.

Seeing this, Russell couldn't help but ruffle Amina's hair beside him, and then took her back to his residence.

In the case of Gulan, he directly applied the characteristics of the little spider to the obvious card. Anyway, no one can tell whether there will be any strange things with the cards, so there is no need to worry about being exposed.

What he was worried about was that the two master card makers would most likely ask him for specific details.

Apart from that, he has no clue about the task assigned by Jinping so far.

"Forget it, let me report my safety first."

After letting Amina and Nilu go out to play, Russell took out his cell phone and sent messages to his acquaintances.

Because he didn't know how many people knew about his disappearance, Russell first greeted Jiang Nanxi and others.

Fortunately, after some communication, he was sure that only a few of his senior brothers and sisters knew about his disappearance.

Thinking of this, Russell opened [Loving Family].

[Russell: I have returned safely, don't worry. ]

[Ye Zhirou:? ]

【Li Fuyu:? 】

【Walnut: Wait for me.】

When Russell saw the message from Lonely Tao, his finger couldn't help but pause above the phone screen.

【Li Fuyu: Oh my god, Junior Brother, you actually faked your death. I thought you were doomed. I didn’t expect you to be the hope of our Bai family.】

Looking at the news from his third senior brother, Russell couldn't help but twitch his lips, but he also knew that the other party was concerned about him.

[Russell: Thank you for your concern, Third Brother. I went to Great Britain for a tour.]

[Ye Zhirou:? ]

【Li Fuyu:? 】

[Li Fuyu: I have never been to such a far place. Junior brother, you are truly invincible.]

Russell:

For a moment, Russell didn't know whether his third brother was really envious of him or was just being sarcastic.

But when I think about how the other person has always been so abstract, he must be envious of me, right?
However, at this time, only Ye Zhirou and Li Fuyu were talking in the group. It was obvious that Hu Tao had already set off for Jizhou Town.

Russell couldn't help scratching his head. Before coming to Jizhou Town, he told his senior sister that he would take time to go back and accompany her.

As a result, I almost lost my life in the previous mission.

Although in the end he turned a blessing in disguise and got Lily promoted to Emerald level.

Not long after, there was a knock on Russell's door.

"So fast." Although he was a little scared, he still forced a smile and opened the door, "Senior Sister."

Before he could finish his words, he was suddenly embraced by the figure outside the door.

"It's okay."

The low murmur like a dream reached Russell's ears, making him give up struggling for a moment.

After a long while, he quickly slapped the arms around his head and said, "I can't breathe."

As Walnut loosened his hands, Russell glanced at the valley wrapped in the turtleneck sweater with lingering fear.

Although he knew that his senior sister had a great figure, it was not until that moment that he truly realized how great it was.

To be honest, Russell felt like he was almost suffocated.

If that were true, it would be the most shameful death for an Emerald-level card maker.

"Hey, Senior Sister, please come in first."

Russell coughed to cover up his embarrassment and invited Walnut into his residence.

After asking the ghost soldier to make a pot of tea, he began to talk about his experiences during this period.

Hu Tao just frowned slightly and listened to the whole thing, then whispered: "Junior brother."

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end she pursed her lips and said nothing: "."

Russell actually knew what his senior sister was going to say, which was simply to persuade him not to stay in the Northern Defense Army any longer.

But after learning some of the truth from Gulan, he felt that this planet would probably become even more dangerous in the future.

Even if we withdraw from the Northern Defense Army, what will happen? There have been secret invasions in Nandu before.

"I will be careful, Senior Sister." However, Russell still made a promise while looking at Hu Tao's emotionless face. Then he changed the subject and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Senior Sister, I have something to ask of you."

After he finished speaking, he asked the ghost soldier to bring Amina over: "It's not appropriate for Amina to stay in Jizhou Town, so I hope you can take her back to Nandu."

"It's fine if I let her stay with me, but I hope you can take care of her a little bit on a regular basis."

"By the way, if possible, it would be best to find someone to teach her the Ming language."

After spending such a short time with Amina, Russell could naturally see that she was a kind person, otherwise she would not have rescued him when she was in danger herself.

However, Russell actually had another consideration about entrusting Amina to Walnut, which was to find a companion for the lonely old Walnut.

Looking at the timid little girl at this time, Hu Tao nodded silently.

Having learned about Russell's experience, she naturally knew that it was Amina who saved him. Otherwise, if Russell was left unconscious in the wild, no one could predict what would have happened.

Then Russell explained the situation to Amina in a soft voice.

Although Amina was a little reluctant, she finally nodded and agreed.

After all, the little girl had only been in Jizhou Town for a short while, but she had already discovered that this city was different from the town where she had lived before.

She didn't see any ordinary people except herself.

After dealing with Amina's whereabouts, Russell prepared to chat with Walnut.

Just then, Russell's phone began to vibrate.

It was a message from Zhang Jingxing. [Zhang Jingxing: Come quickly, Junior Brother, the two masters want to see you.]

After checking the news, Russell couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's just as I expected."

Then he turned off the screen, with an apologetic look on his face: "Senior Sister, Master Fang and Master Ji have something to ask me, I'm afraid I can't accompany you."

Having said that, he stood up and opened the door.

Just as he was about to close the door, a voice came from behind him: "Junior brother."

"Be careful."

Russell stopped, paused and said, ".Yeah."

With Russell's departure, only Walnut and Amina, one big and one small, were left in the room.

At this time, Amina pinched the corner of her clothes and shrank into the corner of the sofa.

Although Mr. Russell said Miss Walnut was his sister, she was still a little scared.

After all, Miss Walnut had a cold face from the beginning, which made her wonder if she had done something wrong.

Just as Amina was hesitating whether to speak, a slender white hand stretched out in front of her.

It's walnut.

Amina mustered up the courage to grab the hand that the tall beauty offered her.

“So warm”

What surprised Amina was that although Miss Walnut looked cold, her palms were unexpectedly warm.

"Let's go."

"Go back to Nandu."

After taking a final look at Russell's residence, Walnut took Amina away.

On the other side, Russell found Zhang Jingxing: "Big Brother, are the two masters looking for me about the Gulan incident?"

Zhang Jingxing nodded first, and then comforted him: "Don't be nervous, little brother, you have made a contribution this time."

"Just tell the truth. The two masters won't make things difficult for you."

Russell certainly wouldn't be nervous, as his only weakness now was his identity as a member of the Qi Ling Society. But the problem was that when he thought about it carefully, he had been the Sixth Master of the Qi Ling Society for such a long time, and it seemed that he had not done anything bad.

The few times he used an alias to kill people were either bad guys or people who had bad intentions towards him.

Is there anyone in the Quan Qiling Society who is more like a traitor than him?

What's more, Fang Wenlong and Ji Weirui would never think about the Qiling Society. After all, the whole thing had nothing to do with the Qiling Society since the previous siege.

"Big Brother, where should we go now?"

It is naturally impossible for Fang Wenlong and Ji Weirui to be in Jizhou Town.

Hearing Russell's question, Zhang Jingxing replied casually: "We just need to wait here, Master Ji and Master Fang will be here soon."

Russell was stunned. He didn't expect that he was so powerful that two card makers would come to him in person.

But he soon understood what his senior brother meant by "arriving very soon".

".Is that Master Ji's card?"

Russell looked at the huge mountain floating from the distant sky and asked Zhang Jingxing in a daze.

Zhang Jingxing nodded: "That is the effect of Master Ji's venue card [Kunlun Hill] and the master card [Kunlun Mountain God·Luwu]."

While the two were talking, [Kunlun Hill] had already arrived not far from Jizhou Town.

It was at this time that Russell discovered that the giant mountain in the sky was several times larger than Jizhou Town.

Immediately afterwards, a ray of ochre light shot towards the two of them.

"Don't be nervous, it's Master Ji who is leading us up."

Despite hearing Zhang Jingxing's explanation, Russell still couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

As the ochre-yellow light shone on his body, Russell was distracted and discovered that the surroundings had changed. Unlike what he had imagined, the buildings he saw on Kunlun Hill were full of technology.

What surprised him was that there were many card makers on the mountain besides the two of them.

As if seeing his confusion, Zhang Jingxing said softly: "These card makers are following the two masters to inspect the entire northern defense line."

"Come with me."

After saying this, he took the lead and walked ahead.

Russell followed him obediently, but as they got closer to the top of the mountain, there were fewer and fewer modern buildings, until finally only a lush forest was left.

At this moment, Russell froze.

He could feel that he was being watched by something extremely dangerous.

At this time, Zhang Jingxing bowed and saluted: "Lord Luwu, Master Ji wants to see my junior brother."

As he spoke, a creature with a human head and a tiger body and nine tails appeared in Russell's eyes.

The monster looked at Russell carefully for a while before disappearing into the woods again.

"Let's go. Master Luwu has always been like this. You just need to get used to it, little brother."

Zhang Jingxing waved his hand to signal Russell to follow. It was obvious that he was no longer surprised by the scene just now.

It took a long time for Russell and his friends to reach the top of the mountain. Without the ability to use displacement, the distance between the top of the mountain and the foot of the mountain was still very far.

What came into Russell's sight at this moment was a quiet cottage shrouded in mist.

"Coming? Come in."

Just as Zhang Jingxing was about to step forward and speak, a gentle female voice came from the hut.

Russell followed his senior brother into the cabin.

However, the interior structure of the cabin does not match its simple appearance, but instead reveals modernity everywhere.

Of course, Russell's attention was not on the decoration. After all, there were two master card makers in the room at that time.

"Hello again, classmate Xiao Luo." As soon as he entered the room, the elegant middle-aged man with gray hair on his temples smiled and said, "I heard from Master Ji that you were missing earlier. I was still thinking about how to explain to Master Bai."

"Now it seems that I was worrying too much."

Hearing this, Russell smiled awkwardly: "Thank you, Master Lao Fang, for your hard work. It was just luck."

At this time, the pretty middle-aged woman next to Fang Wenlong showed a little apology on her face and said softly: "I'm glad that Luo Chen is okay."

"Otherwise, I really have no face to face Master Bai."

Hearing Ji Weirui say this, Russell waved his hands repeatedly: "Master Ji, that's not true. Anything can happen on the battlefield. How can I blame you?"

He could actually understand Ji Weirui. After all, the battlefield was in chaos at that time. As a master-level card maker, she was busy dealing with the masters of the demon army. How could she have the time to care about herself, a mere Emerald-level card maker.

Without wasting too much time on small talk, Fang Wenlong immediately took the initiative to get to the point of today: "I've heard about this from Xiao Zhang."

"But we still hope that you, Xiao Luo, can say it yourself."

Upon hearing this, Russell immediately repeated the information revealed by Gulan.

After hearing that a mysterious being had agreed to Gulan's deal and taken away the reward, Fang Wenlong and Ji Weirui couldn't help but look at each other.

After Russell finished retelling, Fang Wenlong sighed and said, "This is the first time we have heard of [World Devouring **]. But if this is the case, it can indeed explain why the situation has been getting worse in the past two years. It is still very credible."

"As for that mysterious existence"

"I think we can guess who it is."
