Chapter 702: Chapter 384: Arrival and Deception – Part 2
As the words fell.
A sinister aura rushed towards the face.
Tu’er lightly tapped on the tabletop, her gaze deep.
In the courtyard,
Murderous intent gradually surfaced.
“No matter what you plan.”
“But I advise you.”
“The Resistance Army does not tolerate outsiders’ arrangements.”
“Such words, I do not wish to hear a second time.”
Compared to the respect and caution shown in front of the Spiritual Martial King.
Facing Chen Sheng, whose strength was far weaker than her own, Tu’er’s style of conduct was indeed befitting of her appearance and name.
“Alright, alright, alright.”
“I won’t say it then.”
Chen Sheng raised both hands in a gesture of surrender, his face wearing a teasing smile.
“Then I dare not waste your time with more words.”
“If you want me to join the Resistance Army, fine.”
“But I have two conditions.”
His arm slowly swung in front of Tu’er, forming a two.
Something was amiss.
Seeing Chen Sheng’s performance.
Tu’er’s brow subconsciously furrowed.
Even before the journey started,
Lu Yang had informed her of Chen Sheng’s specific information, including his experiences and personality traits.
If Lu Yang’s intelligence was not wrong.
Chen Sheng,
Would at least not appear so frivolous.
Considering his series of moves and his all-too-smooth actions.
Tu’er’s heart grew wary.
She did not immediately ask what Chen Sheng’s conditions were.
Instead, she spoke on her own.
“Chen Sheng.”
“In the operation to rescue Long Aotian on the Broken Planet, you killed members of the Resistance Army who were on a mission for no reason.”
“The fact that we did not choose to erase you instantly is already a supreme grace.”
“You dare to propose conditions?”
“You think you are worthy?!”
Suspecting that Chen Sheng was up to something.
Tu’er’s voice was deeply cold, growing increasingly assertive.
Snap!
She grabbed the two fingers Chen Sheng had stretched out.
Her scar-twisted eyes stared hard at Chen Sheng.
“You only have two choices.”
“Either, agree.”
“Or, die.”
In the midst of the conversation.
The disconcerting creaking noise kept sounding.
Chen Sheng’s two fingers, under the force applied by Tu’er, were gradually bending into an exaggerated arc.
Even so.
Chen Sheng’s expression remained unchanged.
“First.”
“I do not like being bound.”
“Therefore, if I join the Resistance Army, it will only be in a capacity similar to a mercenary, taking on tasks.”
The flat sound of his words.
Was only increasingly grating to Tu’er’s ears.
The murderous intent flooding around was now so dense it was nearly tangible.
Regrettably,
Chen Sheng seemed unaffected as he continued to state his demands.
“Second.”
At this point,
His eyes locked onto Tu’er.
With a half-smile.
“My position must be higher than yours.”
As the words dropped.
The air,
Almost halted.
Then,
It erupted like a volcano.
“Die!”
With blazing coldness in her eyes.
Tu’er squeezed hard, and her palm instantly turned into mush.
The next second.
Boom!!!
An airwave spread instantly.
The surrounding water surged upward, revealing the riverbed and the fish and shrimp below.
The fist rapidly filled Chen Sheng’s vision and continued to enlarge.
But Chen Sheng,
Still looked as if nothing had happened.
And just as he had anticipated.
The seemingly overwhelming attack abruptly halted at the instant it seemed to be upon him.
“Aren’t you afraid to die?”
Tu’er asked in a deep voice.
“Wrong.”
“I’m just not afraid of you.”
Chen Sheng said with a smile, shaking his arm casually.
The hand that had been turned into mush was restored in an instant.
As for Tu’er,
Just as Chen Sheng said,
She wouldn’t dare to put her personal emotions above the commands of the Resistance Army.
After all,
The majority of how these so-called Resistance Army members had survived till now relied on the banner of the Resistance Army and the supreme power of the three leaders.
“Then follow.”
After giving Chen Sheng a cold look,
Tu’er stood up and walked outside.
Although suspecting that Chen Sheng might have another scheme, she, who could not discern the truth, had no choice but to take him along.
En route,
Chen Sheng followed closely behind.
Approaching the negotiation team step by step.
One after another, eyes filled with scrutiny and curiosity fell on him.
But Chen Sheng remained silent, as if he had no intention to introduce himself at all.
“Thank you, Spiritual Martial King.”
The group came to a halt.
Bowing in the direction of the Grand Hall, Tu’er gave a distant bow.
Aside from Chen Sheng, the rest followed suit.
After completing the courtesy.
Tu’er didn’t expect a response from the Spiritual Martial King.
Whoosh!
She grabbed Chen Sheng.
In an instant, their figures soared into the sky, becoming a dot in the horizon.
Fierce wind pressed down from above.
The scenery by one’s side changed rapidly.
In the blink of an eye.
The two were already in the endless expanse of outer space.
Tu’er effortlessly drew a line.
The space channel was torn open easily like paper revealing turbulent space-time.
“Let’s go.”
From start to finish,
Tu’er never took her hand off Chen Sheng.
She simply carried Chen Sheng, stepping into it.
Soon,
The silhouettes of the group disappeared into the vastness of outer space.
————
Xuankong City.
The Palace.
The Spiritual Martial King sat in the courtyard, savoring the tea in his cup.
Compared to his majestic and strong appearance when meeting Tu’er and others.
HIs brows now conveyed an even deeper sense of weariness.
He didn’t look a bit like a Universe Level Powerhouse, but rather like an old man nearing his end.
Sensing the disappearance of Tu’er and the others’ aura, he looked up.
“Although it’s not a long-term solution, it should be sufficient for now.”
He said softly, looking up at the sky.
“The young man here thanks the Spiritual Martial King.”
Just then,
A muscular arm reached out to the teapot, refilling the Spiritual Martial King’s empty teacup.
Hearing this,
The Spiritual Martial King chuckled.
“You need not thank me.”
“I, old man, am not some kind-hearted soul.”
“The reason I help you is naturally because I see potential in you.”
