It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future

1372 Flawed Person!

After achieving such accomplishments, Xia Qingyi was awarded the position of the governor of the 18th district. When such arrangements were made, there was originally going to be a newcomer replacing him in dealing with the business in the Chaotic Lands.

However, how could Xia Qingyi give someone else the business that would dictate his own future? So, he immediately arranged for the Frost Monarch’s side to refuse any discussions with the newcomer and proclaim Xia Qingyi as the only person they were willing to do business with. No matter how the Soul Society tried to make this change, the Frost Monarch’s side wouldn’t budge and would always ask for Xia Qingyi and no one else.

How could the Soul Society let their arrangements in the Chaotic Lands become messed up after putting so much effort there? On the surface, Xia Qingyi had already accepted the new arrangements, but he refused it after hearing the Frost Monarch was not too happy with the newcomer. He was willing to take up the role for the sake of the Soul Society, even if it meant double the work, which thus made a good impression with the higher-ups of the Soul Society. In the end, other than being the governor of a district, he was also the manager of the business in the Chaotic Lands.

After a few years, Xia Qingyi had organized the Chaotic Lands like a bunker. Oh right, wasn’t there still a Hermit?

Indeed, the Hermit was still that Hermit, but he wasn’t the one from before. As for why, Xia Qingyi knew very well that his master and two guardians from the Soul Society had made a move.

The Hermit was still governing his own territory and would ally with other factions to go against the faction of Hades controlled by the Soul Society, as Ling Lan didn’t want the Soul Society and the Hermit to have a close relationship. Them fighting amongst themselves made it easy for an absent Frost Monarch like her to sit quietly on the throne.

The Hermit was simultaneously very afraid and admired the Frost Monarch. The attitude the Frost Monarch showed was that he didn’t want to come in between them and the Soul Society’s quarrels, which made the Hermit respect the Frost Monarch even more to the point of regarding him as a master and himself as a disciple.

It was because of such complicated relationships that the Chaotic Lands was stable. If other powers wanted to enter the Chaotic Lands, they wouldn’t be able to do anything and could only ask the three kings for a business cooperation.

Even though the Frost Monarch, who had a closed door policy for years, didn’t come out in the eyes of the public, no one would dare to make any moves on the Frost Monarch’s faction. It was because both the Hermit and the Hades factions controlled by the Soul Society were respectful towards the Frost Monarch. These foreign powers were afraid that if they weren’t careful, they might cause trouble for themselves, causing the three kings to gather together and eradicate them.

Li Lanfeng arrived at Chaotic Lands and instantly went into Hades’ territory. Actually, it was fine no matter which one he went to. It was just that Hades was the most appropriate. As long as a person knew what was actually happening in Hades, they would know that it was under the Soul Society’s control.

With a token, Li Lanfeng quickly met up with the two guardians. Xia Qingyi was no longer the poor and drab-looking Xia Qingyi. At that moment, he held a high-ranking position with great power. Unless there was anything important, he wouldn’t be in the Chaotic Lands normally.

The two guardians were also Ling Lan’s underlings. After hearing it was their master sending Li Lanfeng here, the two of them didn’t say anything and contacted Xia Qingyi, telling him to come as quickly as possible.

After less than two days, Xia Qingyi arrived. This was already the result of Xia Qingyi using the fastest starship available in the Soul Society.

Xia Qingyi went straight to the room Li Lanfeng was resting in. When Li Lanfeng saw him, he didn’t waste any time and instantly told him everything Ling Lan had ordered Xia Qingyi to do. Xia Qingyi then knew that his master was actually preparing to make a foothold in the Lawless Lands, the place where even the Soul Society had sacrificed countless strong individuals but in the end still had to retreat from it.

The Lawless Lands was the place where the Soul Emperor wanted to take revenge against. Unfortunately, he never had the courage to make any moves on it after that one time.

Of course, the Soul Society had probed the Lawless Lands under the guise of some other organization. Despite failing countless times, they hadn’t actually exposed their real identity. This was why when Ling Lan used the Soul Society’s name, the 13 Lords didn’t suspect anything.

What shocked Xia Qingyi even more was that it seemed his master had succeeded. He instantly got rid of one of the lords and took his place. He even made a temporary promise with the other lords. As long as the promise was kept, he would officially become a lord of the Lawless Lands.

Something that even the Soul Society couldn’t do... His master had done. If someday, his master could take over the Lawless Lands, and in addition to the Chaotic Lands... After thinking to this point, Xia Qingyi excitedly shuddered. He seemed to have followed an incredible individual, and he himself was actually one the participants working under that individual.

Xia Qingyi knew very well that on the surface, the Chaotic Lands was ruled over by the three kings. However, in reality, there was only one king. As long as his master came here personally and hinted towards the Hermit, the Hermit would definitely bow down and work as his master’s underling.

Despite almost exploding from his excitement, Xia Qingyi was after all still Xia Qingyi. After a few seconds, he controlled his emotions and asked, “What do you need me to do?”

“I need the Soul Society’s name and for you to write up a contract of collaboration to send the needed supplies to the Lawless Lands,” Li Lanfeng said calmly. “Make it a long-term periodic thing.”

“Master used the Soul Society’s name?” Xia Qingyi frowned. He knew very well the Soul Emperor abhorred anyone who used his name. If the Soul Emperor knew about this, it would be a big problem for his master.

“That’s why you need to say it’s business collaboration,” replied Li Lanfeng. “Of course, the responsibility will be on you. As for how you would resolve Soul Emperor’s anger, that’ll be up to you.”

Li Lanfeng’s words were somewhat heartless. Despite Xia Qingyi’s expression not changing, his eyes still turned somewhat cold.

“What? Feeling a bit uncomfortable?” Li Lanfeng smiled slightly. “As the governor of the 18th district, you are already considered in the top ranks after eliminating those pseudo ranks of those elder guardians. It’s quite normal for you to have an attitude after being treated so coldly by our master.”

“No, not really,” Xia Qingyi smiled. The coldness in his eyes instantly vanished and returned to how it was before.

“It’s better if you don’t. If you want to catch up to our master, you have to improve your own abilities.” Li Lanfeng cheekily smiled. “Our master doesn’t care for people working for him, especially those who fall behind.” action

After saying that, Li Lanfeng’s smile got even wider. However, the more he smiled, the more Xia Qingyi felt it was cold as ice, “Master thinks of those people as flawed, and such flawed objects don’t need to exist.”

Xia Qingyi smiled coldly. “Are you threatening me?”

‘Motherf*cker. Isn’t he just with master a few years earlier than me. Plus, he got to stay by master’s side all this time, shamelessly taking all the benefits that came. He actually dares to think he is superior than me just because of our circumstances? So f*cking shameless.’

“It’s not a threat, just a reminder,” Li Lanfeng said lightly. “Everyone’s smart. I’m just afraid you might be too smart for your own good...”

“Moreover, the type of people that our master lacks the least are smart people.”

“The list!” Although Xia Qingyi was smiling, those two words were said as though they were squeezed out through his teeth.

Li Lanfeng took out a list of supplies from his pocket and handed it to him, “These are the important ones. You can add some standard supplies if you want.”

“If I want? Just this list needs three transport starships...” After seeing the amount of supplies on the list, Xia Qingyi felt his gums itch. There was already that much and he wanted him to add some if he wanted? Transporting this many supplies was still going to take some effort even if it was him. Plus, he couldn’t sneak it past the Soul Society even if he wanted to.
