In these two days, Niu Xiaobao had not been idle either.
He made a trip to the temple. There was one thing that he needed the Lord of the Land's help with.
The millions of yuan that Liu Yue had been tricked on, she could not just let it go like this. Xiao Bao decided to find a way to recover this sum of money.
Arriving at the Earth Temple, Niu Xiaobao called out the Earthen Lord from underground.
Earthen Lord was dealing with some trivial matters underground. A bunch of underground animals were in an uproar, while Earthen Lord was in the middle as a peacemaker.
”Aiya, Mr. Niu, I'm busy right now. Why are you looking for me?”
”Earthen Lord, I know you are a busy man, but in this mortal world, the only thing I can do is ask for your help. You are the one who can do all sorts of things in this world.”
”Alright, you're Sixth Princess's best friend. If I help you, the next time I go back to the Heavenly Court to report on my work, Sixth Princess can still spare me. Speak, why are you looking for me this time? ”
”It's the same Miss Liu Yue that you met last time, she was tricked by a bunch of scammers into making millions, I want to find this bunch of scammers and help Sister Liu Yue to bring back the millions.”
”You want to find this bunch of liars? Celestial Doctor Liu, I advise you to forget about it. ”
”Why? ”Could it be that my friend's few million is nothing?”
”Little Treasure, you can't beat them, because …”
”Because of what? Do you know the background of this group of people? ”
”The person you are talking about, is he called Xiao Jinglei?”
”Yes, one of them is called Xiao Jinglei. What?
”Little Treasure, this person has quite the background. I'm doing this for your own good. Forget it, don't fight with him.”
”Earthen Lord, tell me where I can find these two bastards.”
”I don't know. I advise you to stop searching. If you can't defeat them, you will only harm yourself.”
”Little Treasure, I won't tell you. This is for your own good. If you have nothing else, I will escape. ”
”Earthen Lord, are you really not going to tell me? I have an immortal pill with me that can help you improve your cultivation. If you tell me where I can find Xiao Jinglei, I will give you this immortal pill as a gift. ”
Earthen Lord was a little moved, but he knew about Xiao Jinglei's background. With Niu Xiaobao's current cultivation, if he went to settle the score with Xiao Jinglei, he would only be seeking death.
Earthen Lord did not want to see Niu Xiaobao send himself to his death.
Even if he could not obtain the immortal pill from Niu Xiaobao's hands, Earthen Lord would not have told Niu Xiaobao about his situation.
Earthen Lord said to Niu Xiaobao as he stroked his silvery-white beard.
”Immortal pills are good stuff, but I can't just let you die for a single immortal pill.” Dr. Niu, let me give you another word of advice, forget about your friend being tricked for a few million, I don't want to see you throw your life away. ”
Earthen Lord did this not only for Niu Xiaobao, but for himself as well.
Xiao Jinglei's background was a person that even Earthen Lord could not afford to offend.
Earthen Lord didn't say anything, mainly to protect himself. Once he revealed Xiao Jinglei's identity, it was very likely that he would be the one to bring disaster upon himself.
If Xiao Jinglei was just an ordinary mortal, Lord Earth would not be this afraid.
But this Xiao Jinglei, was not as simple as an ordinary person. He also had a special identity.
Earthen Lord gave up on the temptation of Niu Xiaobao's immortal pills, and disappeared in a flash.
