The words were spoken.
All the high-level executives nodded in agreement with Huahua. Glasses smiled and looked at her. Huahua becoming a high-level executive of the Senluo Division was also an honor for him; she was a high-level executive he had personally cultivated.
"Meow~"
Huahua meowed to greet everyone.
"Since Huahua is our new high-level executive, she should also contribute to the Suo Long Well. You don't need to follow Glasses anymore. Let the Tailor arrange a task for you."
Senluo said directly.
The Tailor nodded slightly and glanced at Huahua, saying,
"Then you'll follow Bugs to collect intelligence. Your cat spirit is always very stealthy, suitable for collecting intelligence on the Weidao Division with Bugs."
"Meow, okay."
Huahua wagged her plump cat head, adding in her heart... By staying by Bugs' side, she could collect the intelligence Bugs was gathering, and help her master and the Tailor get more information.
Thinking this,
Huahua was very happy, murmuring in her heart,
"Meow~ I must quickly tell my master the good news, I've finally become a high-level executive of the Senluo Division."
...
On the other side.
Zhang Wei was unaware of Huahua's affairs. At this moment, his attention was focused on the system panel.
It could be seen that.
Unlike the usual system panel, the current system panel screen was gray, as if it had crashed. However, Zhang Wei was not surprised by this and was instead in a good mood, murmuring,
"As expected, the system has reached the national guardian level points, and it has upgraded again."
Not long ago.
Zhang Wei boarded a plane flying to the Northeast. At that moment, a system prompt sounded in his mind:
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for accumulating over 500,000 system points. Within the past 24 hours, the system has automatically loaded the upgrade package.]
[System upgrade has begun, estimated upgrade time: 2 days.]
[Ding! During the system upgrade, new functions need to be upgraded, and system points cannot be obtained during this period.]
"Two days? That's fine."
Zhang Wei murmured, not surprised. It had required upgrade time before, but this time it was a bit longer. However, it didn't matter as long as he could get new functions.
Thinking of this.
Zhang Wei said with some anticipation,
"I wonder what new abilities the system will gain from this upgrade."
Previously, during a system upgrade, Zhang Wei had gained the ability 'Synchronization' which greatly increased his strength. Zhang Wei couldn't help but look forward to what abilities the system would gain from this upgrade to the national guardian level. It should be even more powerful than Synchronization.
Just then.
"Mr. Zhang Wei, what did you say?"
Hill, sitting beside him, looked over in confusion.
In response.
Zhang Wei waved his hand and casually said,
"Nothing, I was just thinking that you helped me a lot this time going to the Yunnan Worm Valley, should I give you some thanks."
Perhaps it was because the Yunnan Worm Valley was completed perfectly, or perhaps he was in a good mood, and coupled with Hill diverting the corpse tide, allowing the team to emerge unscathed from the depths of the Yunnan Worm Valley, Zhang Wei continued,
"When we get off the plane, you can inform Felice and the others to choose two fallen angels, even national guardian level ones, and I will help you purify them back into angels."
As soon as he said this.
Hill was stunned for a moment, and then an excited expression appeared on her elegant face:
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang Wei. This is what I should do. I signed a contract with you to protect you."
"You protected me, but you also protected Wunian and the others, so you deserve these two spots."
Zhang Wei smiled.
He knew why Hill had gone all out. Although she could have gone to the bottom of the lake to save him, she chose to divert the corpse tide instead. Firstly, only she had the ability to divert it at that time, and secondly, Wunian was present. She knew his relationship with Wunian, and if Wunian died even if he saved him, he would definitely be angry.
...
Time flew by.
Northeast, Huang Family's stronghold.
"Everyone, I have prepared a banquet for you, as well as the rewards you requested in advance."
The Huang family head enthusiastically led everyone back to the Huang family, taking them to the ancient building where they had been entertained before.
Compared to the previous banquet, this one was even more lavish. It was no longer an ordinary Manchu-Han Imperial Feast. The delicacies even included rare natural treasures useful for ghost exorcists, truly a legendary Peach Banquet.
However.
Although the delicacies at the banquet were mouth-watering, everyone's attention was not on the food. In fact, none of them dared to sit down. They all looked in astonishment at an old man.
The old man was already waiting at the banquet for Zhang Wei and the others to arrive. He had white hair and a white beard that reached the ground. Although his complexion looked sickly pale, clearly indicating he was ill and injured, he still held a bowl of realgar wine and was sipping it.
Following that.
As Zhang Wei and the others arrived, the old man finally put down his wine and smiled as he looked up at them.
But before he could speak.
"Old Ancestor! Why have you come out?"
"Grandfather."
Huang San and Huang Xiaodan exclaimed one after another. At that moment, everyone recognized the person – it was the Old Master of the Huang family.
For a moment.
Except for Hill and Zhang Wei, everyone else present appeared reserved. Even Wunian looked at the Old Master of the Huang family with some surprise. This was a legendary figure, comparable to the True Dragon Guard in both status and strength, a powerful figure who guarded the Northeast.
At the same time, he was also a most ancient and long-standing important figure.
In response.
The Old Master of the Huang family noticed everyone's reserve. After all, his status was undeniable; he was an old monster who had lived for thousands of years, and in terms of seniority, he was definitely an ancestor of ancestors.
Inevitably.
The Old Master of the Huang family waved his hand and smiled,
"Everyone, please don't be reserved. I've only come to thank you all for risking your lives to obtain the treatment for me. Here, I offer you my respects."
Many people were flattered by this.
It was at this moment.
Zhang Wei returned the bow to the Old Master of the Huang family and said,
"Old Master, you are too kind. Since we promised to help, we naturally did our best. After all, it's what we should do. Moreover, we actually benefited somewhat. Without any reward, we wouldn't have come, would we?"
As soon as he said this.
The Gu Masters and others present burst into laughter, echoing Zhang Wei's words:
"Haha, yes, Old Master, you don't need to thank us. We are only here for the reward."
"Old Master, you're too serious. We take money to solve problems."
"Captain Zhang Wei is right, haha."
With Zhang Wei's words, the reserved atmosphere immediately eased, and under the enthusiastic hospitality of the Huang family head, everyone was seated.
"The rewards for everyone have already been prepared by my children, and they are..."
After sitting down, the Old Master of the Huang family said with a smile, finally his gaze fell on Zhang Wei:
"I wonder what gift you want, Zhang Wei. Speaking of which, I must thank you specifically this time. I just heard from Xiaodan that without you this time, the search for Wan Tai Sui would have likely failed. It was you who found Wan Tai Sui and saved Xiaodan and the others from danger."
At this point.
The Old Master of the Huang family said solemnly,
"Whatever reward you want, I can swear on my name that as long as it does not violate morality, I will help you obtain it."
