Chapter 362: I Believe She can Come Back
Bai Yi had always been mild-mannered. Since young, the Bai Family Head had never seen his face change many times.
This was the first time he saw him react in such a cold manner.
However, the Bai Family Head was not shocked by him. At this moment, he only had Bai Yi’s words in his mind:
‘The King of Mercenaries is the Missy you’re talking about …’
Missy.
A person of such status as the Bai Family Head was still rooted to the ground, unable to react.
He was even more shocked than when he found out that Su Huiqing had an S-rank bloodline talent.
“No … that’s not right. Nine years ago, when the King of Mercenaries became famous, how old was Missy then?” The Bai Family Head was a little stunned. He realized that his voice was trembling.
It was unbelievable.
However, if Su Huiqing was really the King of Mercenaries, everything made sense.
How did she know that Unknown Island had a level seven weapon?
Why did the people from Unknown Island, Apollo, and even his own son listen to her?
Bai Yi took another bottle and poured himself a cup of wine. He didn’t explain.
Actually, he could not explain this either. Other than this, Su Huiqing and the King of Mercenaries matched up in anything—no matter which aspect.
Most importantly, they might feel wrong, but Chi Yue and the rest would not.
Bai Yi took the wine and was about to drink when his phone lit up. It was Dugu Yusheng.
Bai Yi’s eyes darkened as he replied. He then picked up his baseball cap and placed it on his head.
With his other hand still holding his phone, he walked to the door and glanced sideways at the Bai Family Head. “Dad, don’t tell anyone about the King of Mercenaries. I will contact Unknown Island. Don’t worry, Chi Yue and the rest won’t let anything happen to the Dugu Family.”
With that, he closed the door.
Dugu Yusheng’s room …
Chi Yue and the rest were all in the same room. The atmosphere in the room was terrifying. It was obvious that everyone had received the news.
“Bai Yi, we don’t understand the training grounds. Among us, only you belong to a big family. What exactly is going on? Captain …” Chi Yue saw Bai Yi enter.
He turned the laptop back on with a slam, his eyes bloodshot.
Chi Yue was silent for a moment. “That training grounds is indeed strange. Even the ones with the worst talent can come out within 10 days. Those who didn’t come out within 10 days have never come out. From the time the training grounds opened until now, more than 30 people have already disappeared there.”
Everyone knew what it meant.
The atmosphere instantly turned even more solemn.
“Previously, everyone said that the captain is dead, but in the end, she is still alive! I believe that she won’t die!” Chi Yue tightened his grip on the cup in his hand. “This time, I also believe that she will definitely return!”
At this point, he stood up. “I’m going back to the island first. I probably can’t hide this matter anymore. I need to make some preparations. At least, we have to protect the Dugu Family.”
“According to the latest news I received, numerous people from overseas are rushing towards the International a.s.sociation.” Dugu Yusheng softened his voice. “It seems like the International a.s.sociation has something they need. Let’s put this matter aside for the time being. The most important thing now is to guard the International a.s.sociation. We can’t compare to the overseas powers so the situation is very critical now.”
“I will go take a look at the stock of the armory. There are still quite a number of trinkets left behind by the King. Although I might not be able to beat them, guarding the International a.s.sociation is not a problem.” Apollo stood up.
“I will go look for all the family heads. They definitely don’t know about the people who came from overseas.” Bai Yi nodded.
“Split up.”
…
Bai Family Prison …
The door to one of the cells was suddenly opened. Su Chen, who was almost tortured beyond recognition, suddenly raised her head.
“Come out.” She saw Ling Jun standing in front of the prison door.
Su Chen’s eyes lit up. “Your Highness, Ling Jun …”
Ling Jun glanced at her with a mild gaze. “You saved my life back then. I saved yours this time. We don’t owe each other anything in the future.”
Being rescued was what Su Chen looked forward to the most these days.
She didn’t care why Ling Jun saved her!
During this period, Bai Yi and the rest were deploying their military power. The atmosphere in the International a.s.sociation was becoming more and more intense. Naturally, no one would spend time paying attention to Su Chen. She was easily rescued by Ling Jun.
Su Chen had just left the prison when Ling Jun left. Just like he said, they owed each other nothing anymore.
Su Chen’s eyes darkened. She clenched her fists and was about to turn and leave.
At this moment, three people suddenly appeared not far away. The leader said in a low voice, “Miss Su.”
Su Chen’s eyes widened before they instantly turned into ecstasy. “Right Dark Angel!”
A few minutes later, Su Chen followed them to a place.
“Did you guys say that Su Huiqing is dead?!” Su Chen sat on the chair, her eyes filled with joy. “It’s really good for her to die like this!”
“Let’s go find the people from Cloud Island. They have some conflicts with Su Huiqing.” Su Chen glanced at the three of them. “With the power of the Right Dark Angel—a seventh-level expert—I believe they will definitely be very willing to cooperate with us!”
After receiving Su Chen’s request for an audience, the elder of Cloud Island was just meeting the experts from Cloud Island who had just rushed over from overseas.
“Our Cloud Island has two seventh-level experts who have already occupied Su Huiqing’s potion shop.” The Cloud Island elder glanced at Su Chen and shook his head. “Killing the Dugu Family is like stepping on ants. Why should I cooperate with you?”
