Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1390: The Mantis Hunts the Cicada, Unaware of the Oriole Behind

"Then let’s start now," Sect Leader Nie said eagerly.

He Shan stood quietly by the side without speaking, but her eyes were fixed on the two people, curious about how exactly these two would find Nie Luan. At the same time, she also wanted to know what other secrets Luo Er might be hiding from her.

Luo Er did not refuse; he opened the briefcase that was on the sofa. He Shan’s eyes flickered, for before the incident with the One-Eyed Dragon, the contents of the briefcase were for her use.

But now that something had happened, that privilege had been taken back.

Nonetheless, He Shan dared not object; it was her fault that had led to such losses among her subordinates. It was fortunate they hadn’t flayed her alive, so she stood there very quietly, though her dark eyes were roiling with emotions others couldn’t detect.

After opening the briefcase, Luo Er took out a black box from inside, then opened it. It was a device with many buttons, about the size of a book.

Then they saw Luo Er press a spot in the middle, pull out an antenna, and after a few adjustments, the three lights on this black device lit up in sequence, red, green, and yellow.

He pressed a few more times, the other lights went out, leaving only a green light flashing, and in the middle was a red dot blinking, and below it appeared to be a map.

This kind of thing, both fantastical and high-tech, was something Sect Leader Nie hadn’t seen before. He spoke with a touch of reverence, "Luo Er, is this what you were talking about?"

Luo Er nodded, "Yes, when you contacted us, I went to Archive Room No.1 and planted something on Nie Luan. However, this tracker has only just been successfully developed; it’s been tested, and the positioning is very accurate."

Luo Er rarely patiently explained one step at a time.

Sect Leader Nie nodded uncertainly, no longer concerning himself with how the thing worked, merely looking at it knowing he couldn’t possibly obtain it. It was said that this was developed in Old Thief He’s laboratory, which meant there were many scientists in Old Thief He’s lab specifically helping him research various things.

That old fellow is indeed a man of mystery; who knows what he plans to do. But if he can help him find his grandson, he is willing to do anything it takes, and it has nothing to do with him.

Therefore, he wouldn’t care about Old Thief He’s intentions.

Everyone being together was mutual exploitation; this was a very normal thing.

Thus Sect Leader Nie quickly asked, "Luo Er, can you now see where my grandson is?"

Luo Er did not speak but seriously looked at the 5-centimeter-wide section with the map, his brows tightly furrowed, seemingly trying to discern where it was.

It was at this moment that He Shan gracefully walked over. She knew that this new thing was researched in her grandfather’s laboratory, and when she left, it was still under development. She hadn’t expected it to really succeed. With this, finding someone would be very convenient, provided that the matching counterpart was placed on the person in question.

This wasn’t only high-tech; there were also some very mysterious elements involved. Her grandfather didn’t let her participate, but she knew about it.

Thinking of this, a barely noticeable smile appeared on He Shan’s lips, but it quickly disappeared. She furrowed her brow and looked at the map, seemingly pondering where it was. After a moment, she pointed to that place and said, "I think this should be a hundred miles north of the Imperial Capital."

"A hundred miles north of the Imperial Capital, that’s a large area; where exactly is it?" Sect Leader Nie couldn’t wait for Luo Er to speak and hurriedly asked.

He Shan shot him a glance, "What’s the rush? I need to take a closer look. This map isn’t clearly marked; it’s not that easy to figure out."

Sect Leader Nie fell silent.

The situation was stronger than the person. At this moment, he was the one seeking help from others; he was no longer the grandfather but the grandson.

Luo Er glanced at He Shan and softly asked, "Can you be sure?"

He Shan tightened her brow, stared intently at the location, and then pointed to the marker, saying, "I’m sure this is a place called Gala Mountain."

"Gala Mountain?" Sect Leader Nie was startled, then seemed to have a sudden revelation, clapping his hands, "My grandson told me before that the Spiritual Energy there is abundant. If he wanted to cultivate, he would choose that place. Not only is it close to the city area, making life convenient, but it also wouldn’t interrupt cultivation; it’s a win-win site."

Saying this, Sect Leader Nie stood up from the sofa and asked Luo Er, "Shall we set off now?"

Luo Er glanced out the window. It was already nighttime with lights on everywhere, but important tasks took precedence. He nodded and said to He Shan beside him, "Sect Leader Nie and I will go find Nie Luan. You make sure to prepare the jade, so it’s ready when we return."

He Shan nodded, "Rest assured, I’ll definitely have it ready."

However, in her heart, she was quite satisfied. Although she wasn’t handling this task directly, it was ultimately she who pointed out the place because it was rare for Luo Er’s attitude to be this serious.

He Shan felt very proud in her heart but didn’t show it on her face, remaining as usual.

Luo Er glanced at He Shan, who quickly reminded, "You two be careful on the way."

Then Luo Er and Sect Leader Nie left the apartment, and He Shan went to the place where the gemstones were stored. To avoid arousing suspicion, she couldn’t buy all the gemstones from Yubao Square. Besides, she didn’t have that kind of financial power at the moment; buying what she had was already the maximum capital she could use.

Old Thief He possessed immense wealth, but at times, he was very stingy, a typical man who wouldn’t let loose until he saw the rabbit. Therefore, there was always limited active capital; much of it was controlled by Old Thief He.

Everything depended on his mood. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

This Yubao Square is really steeped in black; these things are too expensive, just handing them over to Nie Luan without knowing how they’ll be used.

And even at this moment, He Shan didn’t know what Nie Luan was going to do with these gemstones.

But it was clear they weren’t for wearing; He Shan understood that much.

He Shan let out a soft snort and turned to the living room.

...

Gu Qiaoqiao had just finished dinner when she received a phone call. She didn’t expect it to be from Dongfang Yu, and before Gu Qiaoqiao could ask what he wanted, Dongfang Yu quickly said over the phone, "Gu Qiaoqiao, head out by car now. I know where Nie Luan is."

"Where is Nie Luan?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked, holding the receiver in surprise.
