Chapter 220 Uze Ezuka's Request
After Zhuoguoren and Yuan Zhihui left one after another, only Use Ezuka was left standing alone in the spacious room. Ling Yuan looked at her suspiciously, and thought to himself: "Logically speaking, shouldn't she go with Yuan Zhihui? Why is she staying here now... Is there something else going on?"
Confused, Ling Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Uh... well, why haven't you left yet? Is there anything you haven't finished? If so, please tell me directly and I'll see if there's anything I can help you with."
Hearing Ling Yuan's question, Zhongyan and Suo raised their heads at the same time and glanced at Use Ezuka beside them, but then quickly lowered their heads and continued to concentrate on the game controlled by the controller in their hands, seemingly indifferent to everything happening around them.
Use Etsuka raised her eyes slightly, her eyes met Ling Yuan's for a moment, she bit her lips lightly, and seemed a little hesitant. She was very entangled in her heart, not knowing whether she should ask Ling Yuan for this, and her heart was always in a state of hesitation.
Ling Yuan noticed Use Ezuka's hesitation, turned his head to look at Zhongyan and Suo who were concentrating on playing games, and then comforted her softly, "It's okay, if you really encounter difficulties or need help, just speak up! As long as it is within my ability, I will definitely go all out and do my best! So, don't worry so much, just speak up!"
Use Etsuka stared at Ling Yuan, with a hint of complicated emotions in her eyes. She took a deep breath, as if she was making up her mind, and her originally wavering eyes gradually became firm.
"Sir Ling Yuan, I have a favor to ask, please help me!" Use Etsuka bowed deeply to Ling Yuan respectfully and expressed her request earnestly, "This is what happened, I beg you to help me and eradicate the Abe family!"
Ling Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking secretly in his heart. He had heard from Shuten Douji and Ibaraki Douji that the Abe family was now in constant internal strife. In order to counter Abe Haruaki who opposed the revival of the gods, the Abe family even resorted to sorcery and imprisoned Abe Haruaki within the family.
If the person that Use Ezuka was talking about - the Abe family - happens to be the family mentioned by Shuten, then this matter becomes very interesting.
"Give me a reason." Ling Yuan's face became increasingly heavy. He asked seriously, with a firm and resolute light flashing in his eyes.
Use Etsuka bit her lips lightly, her eyes showing a trace of struggle and hesitation, as if something was pulling her back. Undoubtedly, she was not 100% sure whether Ling Yuan would lend a hand, but the only person who could solve this crisis was the unfathomable Ling Yuan in front of her.
Time passed by, the air seemed to freeze, and the tense atmosphere made people breathless. Finally, Use Ezuka took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, and said: "The Abe family has some important information. If this information falls into the hands of the wrong people, it will cause a huge disaster. And I got the news that the Abe family is trying to leak this information..."
Her voice trembled slightly, with a hint of fear and uneasiness. Ling Yuan listened quietly, frowning, thinking about the interests involved. After a moment, he slowly raised his head, stared at Use Ezuka sharply, and asked: "Why did you tell me this?"
Use Ezuka stared at Ling Yuan closely, with an unconcealable sadness in the depths of her eyes: "My lover is from the Abe family. He once had the same belief as us - to prevent the awakening of the gods. However, I have lost contact with him recently. We have an agreement that if he suddenly loses contact, it means that the situation has gotten out of control...so..."
The corners of Ling Yuan's mouth twitched slightly, and his mind kept echoing what Shuten told him. According to Shuten, the Abe family only imprisoned Abe Haruaki. Now, Use Etsuka said that her lover disappeared mysteriously, which made Ling Yuan suspicious: Could it be that this Ms. Use Etsuka was actually a romantic affair left by Abe Haruaki?
However, this is undoubtedly a great opportunity to get close to the Abe family and contact Abe Haruaki. Faced with this complicated situation, it would be more straightforward to question the parties in person rather than agonizing over it.
"Okay, I agree to this favor. As it happens, I also have some matters that I must deal with with the Abe family." Ling Yuan gently waved his hand and responded helplessly, "Besides this, is there anything else you can help with?"
"Nothing... nothing happened!" Use Ezuka lowered her head and spoke with a slightly trembling voice.
"Then go!" Ling Yuan waved his hand helplessly, then sighed deeply and said slowly, "I will visit the Abe family in the near future. Don't worry about this matter for now. I will inform you in time when there is a result."
Use Ezuka looked at Ling Yuan silently for a while, with a complex emotion in her eyes. Finally, she nodded slightly to show that she understood, and turned to leave the room. As the door closed gently, the whole room suddenly became quiet, leaving only Ling Yuan, Zhongyan and Suo.
Ling Yuan leaned back on the sofa as if all his strength had been drained away. He raised one hand high and rubbed the wrinkles between his eyebrows with his palm. The endless situations that have emerged recently have made this powerful man exhausted and on the verge of collapse. He closed his eyes tightly and tried to recall the cooperation with Shuten not long ago. His mood calmed down a little, and he thought to himself: "Maybe this is a rare good news recently."
However, when his thoughts drifted to the worries about the various unknown challenges in the future, his nerves, which had just relaxed a little, instantly tensed up again... Putting aside the frequent phenomena of gods awakening, the breath from another "Lingyuan" that Zhongyan sensed was enough to make one feel tired.
As if they noticed Ling Yuan's fatigue, Zhongyan and Suo looked at each other, then put down the handles in their hands, and came behind Ling Yuan, one on the left and one on the right. They gently pressed their small hands on Ling Yuan's shoulders and gently massaged Ling Yuan's shoulders.
Ling Yuan had been carrying too many things all along, and he had always been alone. Until now, it seemed that they were all helping Ling Yuan, but in fact, Ling Yuan still carried all these things alone.
Until now, none of them knew what Ling Yuan's purpose was in fighting so hard. What Ling Yuan had done and everything he had paid for had gradually surpassed the matter of reviving Wuliangta Jizi.
