Chapter 485 Embarrassment

“It’s good that you understand. Look how pitiful they are.”

An Ruoxue replied playfully.

“Wait, I still have a question.”

“What question?”

“What’s your real name? Is it really An Ruoxue?”

Su Ming asked, a bit curious.

“Yes, but that’s not the full name. My full name is An Ruoxue Saintloques!”

An Ruoxue replied without holding back.

“Saintloques? How is your surname the same as God Emperor Van Lo? What’s your relationship?”

“We are from the same family. Saintloques was originally the largest ruling family in Apocalypse Divine Kingdom.”

“Since you’re from the same family, how did it come to this?”

Su Ming grew more curious upon hearing this.

“Sigh, this goes back a long time. Our Saintloques family’s original system was the divine right of kings. The royal family was responsible for managing the country, and the church was responsible for faith. The two supported and checked each other! But all of this changed because of Van Lo. From birth, Van Lo was a prodigy, and he even attended Royal Court Academy, graduating with excellent grades.”

An Ruoxue explained to Su Ming.

“What happened next?”

Su Ming was also a little surprised. He hadn’t expected God Emperor Van Lo to have graduated from Royal Court Academy. But it was normal; in his era, Royal Court Academy hadn’t split yet.

“Later, Van Lo followed Council Speaker Long Xian and grew and rose rapidly, thus assuming the position of Pope. Originally, everything was going well. But ever since Van Lo returned from the expedition against the aliens with Council Speaker Long Xian, everything changed! He began to use his prestige and the people’s faith in him to extensively build private armed forces. Finally, the Night of Catastrophe happened. He massacred the royal family, merged the royal power and divine power, and became the God Emperor himself!”

“Oh.”

“Originally, after Van Lo usurped power, we didn’t see any hope. But thanks to the Federation, we saw a glimmer of hope again.”

An Ruoxue explained to Su Ming.

“Thanks to the Federation? Why do you say that?”

“God Emperor Van Lo was initially pro-Federation, but unexpectedly, after he usurped power, he not only didn’t befriend the Federation but instead constantly broke out in conflicts, causing a large number of casualties and immense suffering for the common people. This made the lower classes very dissatisfied with him, and his actions were simply suicidal. You should know that the Federation is not to be trifled with. The Federation may seem weak now, but that’s only because Council Speaker Long Xian is not present. It doesn’t mean the Federation is truly incapable. As long as Council Speaker Long Xian gives an order, the Federation will definitely tear Apocalypse Divine Kingdom apart.”

“That’s true!”

“Also, God Emperor Van Lo actively provoked trouble in the Tidal Star Sea, only to be pushed back by the Federation, with a large number of troops tied up. This also gave us an opportunity to act. This time, we will go all out!”

“What if you lose?”

Su Ming looked at An Ruoxue and asked seriously.

“If we lose, there’s nothing we can do. We can only meet again in the next life.”

An Ruoxue replied with a smile.

Su Ming fell silent upon hearing An Ruoxue’s words.

At this moment, An Ruoxue leaned forward, almost pressing herself against Su Ming. She sniffed her nose, as if smelling something.

A faint, delicate fragrance wafted over, and Su Ming said with an unnatural expression.

“What are you doing?”

“You smell so strong. Take off your clothes; I’ll give you a thorough wash.”

An Ruoxue revealed a mischievous smile and said to Su Ming.

“No need, this is my disguise.”

Su Ming quickly refused.

“It’s fine, you don’t need to deliberately make yourself dirty and ugly to fool people. I can do make-up, I’ll do it for you after you wash.”

An Ruoxue reached out to take off Su Ming’s clothes.

“No, really no need.”

Su Ming retreated awkwardly.

“Oh, you don’t have to worry, Chu Yu has already handed you over to me. And this is Apocalypse Divine Kingdom, no one will know.”

An Ruoxue looked at Su Ming’s flustered appearance and found it increasingly amusing. She immediately pressed closer, reaching out to pull at Su Ming’s clothes.

Su Ming retreated in a panic, directly bumping into the table behind him. He then pressed his hands on the table to steady himself and said.

“Stop messing around! If you keep messing around, I’ll get angry.”

“Hmph, you don’t want this? Could it be that you’re not capable in that regard?”

An Ruoxue looked at Su Ming’s lower body with a mischievous smile.

Su Ming’s face instantly turned as black as charcoal when he heard An Ruoxue’s words. He was about to retort.

Thump, thump!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Su Ming and An Ruoxue were both startled.

“Who is it!”

An Ruoxue immediately shouted.

“Ruoxue, it’s me. Open the door.”

Corona Ann’s steady voice came from outside the door.

“Oh no, it’s my father. Hide quickly.”

An Ruoxue’s expression changed slightly, and she whispered to Su Ming.

Su Ming immediately turned his head to look around and saw a luxurious white wooden cabinet. He decisively rushed over, opened the cabinet door, and hid inside.

After An Ruoxue saw Su Ming hide, she walked to the door and opened it.

Corona Ann walked in at this moment and asked in a deep voice.

“Why did it take so long to open the door?”

“No, I was just about to take a bath and rest.”

An Ruoxue replied very naturally.

“Hmm.”

Corona Ann nodded slightly.

“Father, why are you looking for me so late?”

An Ruoxue asked back very naturally.

Corona Ann sighed slightly and said to An Ruoxue.

“What else could it be? Didn’t I ask you to deal with them a little? You haven’t given them any face recently.”

“I don’t want to deal with them. I know what kind of people they are with just one look.”

An Ruoxue replied unhappily.

“I know this is a bit difficult for you, but there’s nothing we can do. Now is a critical moment, and things can’t be made too tense.”

Corona Ann sighed, earnestly advising An Ruoxue.

“I know. Is there anything else? If not, I want to take a bath and rest.”

An Ruoxue replied perfunctorily, wanting to end the conversation quickly.

“Don’t rush, I haven’t finished speaking. Take some time to have dinner with Kaisa recently.”

“Why! I don’t want to!”

“This is also unavoidable. Misake keeps coming to me, asking me to talk to you and give his son a chance. I can’t keep putting him off, so just bear with it and have dinner with him.”

Corona Ann was also a bit helpless.

To be honest, he didn’t think much of those two boys either, but there was nothing he could do. This most basic courtesy still had to be given.

“Father…”

An Ruoxue still didn’t really want to agree.

However, just as she was about to refuse, Corona Ann suddenly noticed a dirty mark on the nearby table. Although it wasn’t very obvious, it immediately caught his attention.

Corona Ann raised his hand and made a shushing gesture to An Ruoxue.

An Ruoxue was also startled, and she asked with a somewhat unnatural expression.

“Father, what’s wrong?”

“Has someone been in your room?”

“No!”

“Hmm.”

Corona Ann replied as if nothing had happened. His gaze fell on the wooden cabinet nearby, and he walked over nonchalantly.

An Ruoxue’s heart suddenly tightened. She was just about to divert her father’s attention.

At this moment, Corona Ann suddenly erupted without warning, slamming his fist into the wooden cabinet!

Crack!

His entire fist smashed through the cabinet door but was directly blocked.

At this moment, the wooden cabinet was suddenly kicked open from the inside, and Corona Ann agilely retreated.

Su Ming immediately jumped out of the wooden cabinet.

Corona Ann looked up and saw Su Ming appear, immediately furious, and demanded.

“How dare you sneak into my daughter’s room? Who exactly are you?”

However, Su Ming did not answer Corona Ann’s words.

“Father, listen to me!”

An Ruoxue was just about to persuade him.

Corona Ann charged forward fiercely, his powerful fist creating a terrifying whooshing sound as it violently slammed towards Su Ming.

Su Ming quickly dodged to the side, the fist grazing past him.

“Father, stop, don’t hit him!”

An Ruoxue quickly shouted at Corona Ann.

However, Corona Ann completely ignored An Ruoxue’s words and instead swung his fists, raining down blows on Su Ming like a storm.

Su Ming continuously dodged, but Corona Ann kept pressing forward.

His eyes suddenly narrowed. He quickly dodged the attack with a swift shift of his body, then quickly turned and swept out a sharp kick.

Corona Ann raised his left hand to block.

Bang~

He staggered back several steps, his arm aching intensely.

Corona Ann’s face also showed a hint of surprise. This guy’s strength was actually so powerful.

Just as he was about to charge forward again, An Ruoxue quickly blocked in front of Su Ming, extending her hand to stop him and shouted.

“Stop, Father, he’s not a bad person.”

Corona Ann saw An Ruoxue blocking in front of Su Ming, his face dark, and he asked in a deep voice.

“Ruoxue, who exactly is he? Why is he in your room in the middle of the night?”

“This, this…actually, he’s my trusted hidden agent.”

An Ruoxue was speechless for a moment when she heard her father’s words, but she quickly offered an explanation.

“Trusted hidden agent? When did you get such a strong subordinate?”

Corona Ann was also very surprised. He knew his ancient martial arts were very strong, but when he exchanged blows with this kid just now, he also suffered a considerable hidden loss.

“I can’t tell you that; it’s my secret. But Father, you’re going too far. I told you to stop hitting him, and you still kept going!”

An Ruoxue said to Corona Ann.

“I was just worried about you.”

Corona Ann’s expression stiffened slightly after hearing An Ruoxue’s words, then he explained with a stern face.

“Understood. Little Su, there’s nothing for you here. You can go down first.”

An Ruoxue quickly said to Su Ming.

“Yes!”

Su Ming nodded, then turned and left.

Corona Ann watched Su Ming’s retreating back, his brows furrowing continuously, his gaze constantly scanning him up and down.

An Ruoxue saw Corona Ann staring at the departing Su Ming and quickly warned him.

“Father, don’t you dare have any ideas about my person!”

“What are you thinking? I’m worried you’ve been deceived. Is this person reliable?”

“Reliable, absolutely reliable.”

“That’s good then. With such a master by your side, I can rest assured.”

Corona Ann nodded slightly in response.

“Relax, Father, you should go back and rest.”

“Remember what I told you.”

“I know!”

An Ruoxue quickly pushed Corona Ann out.

—

Apocalypse Divine Kingdom, Palace of God.

God Emperor Van Lo sat on the throne.

Generals and subordinates in white priestly robes stood in two neat vertical rows, one on the left and one on the right.

The virtual projection of Edridge was displayed in the hall. He reported with a very solemn expression.

“God Emperor Van Lo, the Federation has started a frantic counterattack here in the Tidal Star Sea. Our troops are now facing immense pressure, and all the occupied Neutral Countries have been recaptured. Furthermore, several Neutral Countries have been pushed back. The situation is very grim, and I request you send reinforcements.”

Before God Emperor Van Lo could speak, an old man in a pure white priestly robe, somewhat short, with white hair and prominent cheekbones, stepped forward and said anxiously.

“God Emperor Van Lo, we cannot send any more troops. Our rear production areas are having problems. The remnants of the Old King Army have launched a large-scale rebellion, and many areas have fallen. Now we are under attack from both front and back, and the situation is very bad.”

God Emperor Van Lo showed a melancholic expression and said to Edridge.

“Edridge, you also heard what Archbishop Nicotes said. It’s not that I’m unwilling to send troops to support you, but that I can’t.”

“Then what about the Tidal Star Sea?”

“Hold the line.”

“Alright.”

Edridge replied after a few seconds of silence.

“God Emperor Van Lo, how should we deal with the rebellion in the rear?”

Archbishop Nicotes then asked.

“Sigh, send people to suppress it!”

Van Lo said with a somewhat helpless expression.

“Will that work? The Old King Army is coming with great force this time. Could it be that they are colluding with the Federation?”

Archbishop Nikotes asked with some concern.

“Rest assured, that’s impossible. It was the Old King Army who separated the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom from the Federation back then. The Federation remembers that debt. Even if the Old King Army wanted to cooperate with the Federation, the Federation wouldn’t agree.”

Van Lo said to Nikotes.

“Yes.”

Archbishop Nikotes’s expression softened considerably upon hearing this.

“Alright, that’s enough for now. You may all leave.”

God Emperor Fanluo said to everyone.

“Understood!”

Nikotes and the others respectfully withdrew.

Edrig also cut off the remote communication, and soon only God Emperor Fanluo was left sitting on the throne in the great hall.

At this moment, God Emperor Fanluo’s helpless expression faded, replaced by an evil smile.

—

Holy Shadow Planet Fortress.

On the empty observation deck.

Su Ming stood there with his hands behind his back, gazing at the distant starry sky, contemplating what An Ruoxue had told him.

Given his current predicament, the difficulty of returning to the Federation in a short period was likely immense.

Although An Ruoxue teased him, she was never vague about serious matters. If she couldn’t send him back, it meant the path back was more difficult than imagined.

Also, the Old King Army’s secretly planned operation, while seemingly unrelated to him, actually had a significant connection.

If An Ruoxue and her team succeeded, God Emperor Fanluo would undoubtedly suffer a heavy blow, making it much easier for him to deal with him later. But if An Ruoxue and her team failed, and God Emperor Fanluo successfully created the weapon, his strength would greatly increase, a huge difference either way.

Therefore, Su Ming still very much hoped that An Ruoxue and her team would succeed. He also really wanted to help An Ruoxue, but unfortunately, his current state was terrible, and Ilyinas was still in slumber, making him feel truly powerless.

“Sigh!”

Thinking of this, Su Ming sighed softly, then turned and left the observation deck, heading towards Area D1.

Just as Su Ming walked into a secluded lounge, he suddenly heard a faint sound coming from the corner of a hidden passage.

Su Ming quietly approached and saw Misake and Kaisa standing in the corner, talking in low voices.

He immediately pressed against the wall, listening carefully to their conversation.

“This is a blind spot, no surveillance. Just say what you need to say.”

“Father, I really tried my best, but there’s nothing I can do. An Ruoxue completely ignores me. And what disgusts me most is that Comlifu; he has to compete with me in everything and even deliberately undermines me. I suggested taking An Ruoxue to see a mech, and he said his family’s mechs were stronger than ours. I gave An Ruoxue a gemstone necklace, and he gave her a more expensive one. I really have no ideas left.”

The more Kaisa spoke, the angrier he became, his handsome face slightly distorted.

Misake listened to Kaisa’s words, a trace of annoyance also appearing on his face, but he quickly calmed down and said,

“Don’t worry, son. Since you can’t beat him, then take a different approach.”

“Father, are you saying…?”

“You don’t need to worry about anything. I’ve already arranged it for you. It just so happens that our people are on duty in the monitoring room today.”

“Wouldn’t that be bad? If Corona Ann found out, wouldn’t he skin me alive?”

Kaisa replied with some trepidation.

“What’s there to be afraid of? In the eyes of those in power, everyone is just a bargaining chip, and An Ruoxue is no exception. At worst, we’ll bleed a little, and we’ll definitely be able to smooth things over.”

“Really?”

“When have I ever done something without confidence? However, after this is done, you’ll probably lose a layer of skin, but it doesn’t matter. As long as you endure it, once the rice is cooked, they’ll just have to accept it.”

Misake said to Kaisa.

“It doesn’t matter, as long as it works.”

Kaisa said with great excitement.

“Good, worthy of being my son. Let’s go!”

Misake then led Kaisa back to the lounge.

After the two walked away, Su Ming emerged from behind a metal pillar, his expression constantly changing.

Although their conversation was vague, Su Ming could infer with a little deduction that these two guys had ill intentions, and it was highly likely they wanted to harm An Ruoxue.

He had seen such dirty deeds many times.

Su Ming didn’t hesitate for a moment, immediately turning to leave to find An Ruoxue.

Not long after.

Su Ming arrived at the door of An Ruoxue’s room. He reached out and knocked on the door.

Thump thump ~

He waited for a long time, but there was no response.

Su Ming patiently knocked again, but still no response.

Just then, a patrol team walked by. They saw Su Ming knocking on An Ruoxue’s door, and the leader, a burly man with a thick waist and broad shoulders, wearing third-generation exoskeleton armor, and with thick eyebrows and large eyes, said in a deep voice,

“Hey kid, what are you doing here?”

“Hello, I’m here to see Miss An Ruoxue.”

Su Ming replied politely.

“Who are you?”

“I’m a friend of An Ruoxue.”

“I remember now, our young lady brought you here that night.”

“That’s right!”

“What do you want with our young lady? She’s not here.”

Captain Haixia asked in a deep voice.

“Where did she go? I have something important to tell her.”

Su Ming asked somewhat eagerly.

“Our young lady went to the Star’s Whisper Restaurant for dinner with Young Master Kaisa.”

Captain Haixia’s expression shifted for a moment, and he decided to tell Su Ming.

After all, it was the first time he had seen Miss An Ruoxue bring someone into her room, so this person should be the young lady’s confidant.

“How do I get to the Star’s Whisper Restaurant?”

Su Ming immediately asked.

“Go that way, take the moving platform, and head to Area A9.”

Captain Haixia extended his hand to point the way for Su Ming.

“Thank you.”

Su Ming quickly left in a hurry.

A moment later, the door of the moving platform in Area A9 opened.

Su Ming hurriedly got off and rushed towards the Star’s Whisper Restaurant. Soon, he arrived at the corridor outside the restaurant.

The entire corridor was empty, with no one in sight.

There should have been many greeters and guards here.

When Su Ming saw this, his heart sank, and he had a very bad premonition. He immediately sped up and rushed into the Star’s Whisper Restaurant.

When he rushed to the main entrance of the Star’s Whisper Restaurant.

Creak!

The large door suddenly opened slowly, and An Ruoxue stumbled out.

Su Ming immediately reached out to support her, asking with concern,

“Ruoxue, what’s wrong?”

At this moment, An Ruoxue slowly raised her head, her face flushed, and she said very weakly,

“Su Ming, is that you? My head is so dizzy, and I feel like I have no strength at all.”

When Su Ming heard An Ruoxue’s words, a hint of undetectable anger flashed in his eyes. It was clear she had been drugged, but fortunately, she escaped. He quickly said,

“I’ll take you back to rest.”

“Okay.”

An Ruoxue’s delicate body directly collapsed onto Su Ming, unable to exert any strength.

Seeing that An Ruoxue had no strength, Su Ming reached out and picked her up.

An Ruoxue, as if finding a warm harbor, subconsciously wrapped her arms around Su Ming’s neck, pressing her cheek against his body.

Su Ming, holding An Ruoxue, hurriedly left and walked towards the moving platform.

Soon, Su Ming carried An Ruoxue onto the moving platform, just as the moving platform’s door was about to close.

Comlifu, wearing a white shirt, black suit, and tie, holding a bouquet of flowers, walked out of the passage and happened to see Su Ming holding An Ruoxue.

He stood there stunned.

Click!

The moving platform door closed.

Comlifu immediately came back to his senses, his eyes instantly bloodshot, and endless rage burned, his entire face somewhat distorted.

“Bastard!”

At this moment, Comlifu felt like killing someone. He hadn’t even touched a single finger of An Ruoxue, yet that guy was holding her.

Comlifu immediately felt that his goddess had been desecrated, and his head turned green.

He instantly chased after them in anger, but unfortunately, the moving platform’s door had closed.

A moment later, Su Ming carried An Ruoxue to her room door.

“Ruoxue, can you open the door?”

Su Ming asked softly.

An Ruoxue nodded slightly and reached out to touch the door lock.

Whirr ~

The door opened automatically.

Su Ming carried An Ruoxue inside and closed the door with his foot.

Then, Su Ming carried An Ruoxue to the bed, bent down, and gently laid her down.

“You should get some good rest.”

Just as Su Ming reached out to remove An Ruoxue’s hand from his neck.

An Ruoxue’s cheeks were flushed, her eyes seductive, as if the drug had taken effect, and she directly pulled Su Ming onto the bed with force.

Su Ming was pressed against An Ruoxue, and the soft touch immediately sent ripples through his heart, his heart beating rapidly.

At this moment, An Ruoxue hooked Su Ming’s neck and directly kissed him.

Su Ming felt as if he had been electrocuted, his mind instantly blank.

A few seconds later, Su Ming came back to his senses, quickly forcing An Ruoxue’s hand open, and said somewhat flustered,

“Ruoxue, clear your head.”

An Ruoxue’s eyes were hazy, revealing a pure yet charming expression, and she said softly to Su Ming,

“Su Ming, I’m so hot.”

Su Ming was also somewhat at a loss for a moment.

At this moment, Celes emerged from Su Ming’s pocket, floated in mid-air, fully scanned An Ruoxue, and then spoke with confusion,

“Huh, all her physiological indicators are normal, just a bit high in alcohol. What’s wrong?”

“An Ruoxue!”

When Su Ming heard Celes’s words, his expression suddenly stiffened, and he immediately reacted, looking at An Ruoxue with annoyance and saying,

“Oh dear, I’ve been exposed, how embarrassing!”

An Ruoxue covered her eyes with her hands, saying playfully.

Su Ming heard An Ruoxue’s words and said in an annoyed tone,

“I don’t feel you’re embarrassed at all, and don’t joke about things like this.”

“Isn’t it because I saw how much you cared about me, and I was very touched?”

An Ruoxue said with a smile.

“Did you know early on that Kaisa was going to act improperly towards you?”

Su Ming asked with a dark face.

“I didn’t know, but his little tricks are really not enough to impress me. I just used a little trick and he fell into his own trap.”

An Ruoxue said to Su Ming, winking playfully.

“Don’t do this again next time.”

After hearing An Ruoxue’s words, Su Ming didn’t know whether to be angry or to laugh.

“No, you didn’t lose anything.”

An Ruoxue stuck out her tempting tongue, licked her lips, and replied.

“Who said that?”

When Su Ming heard An Ruoxue’s words, his blood pressure immediately soared as he replied.

“Could it be that you’re also a first-timer?”

When An Ruoxue heard Su Ming’s words, a mischievous smile immediately appeared on her face, and she asked very happily.

“Hmph, anyway, don’t mess around anymore.”

Su Ming lectured her with a dark face.

“Hey, if you feel like you lost out, at worst, I’ll let you kiss me back.”

An Ruoxue said to Su Ming, winking.

“You—”

An Ruoxue made Su Ming completely lose his temper.

“Haha!”

Celes burst into laughter when she saw this scene. It was the first time she had seen Su Ming so deflated.

At this moment, An Ruoxue’s gaze fell on Celes, and she asked curiously,

“This is?”

“Artificial Intelligence – Ceres!”

Su Ming said to An Ruoxue.

“Oh, I remember now, that Artificial Intelligence from the Three School League. Isn’t that a treasure of the Federation? How could it be here?”

An Ruoxue asked with great surprise.

“The Federation gave Celes to me. Now she’s with me.”

Su Ming explained to An Ruoxue.

“The Federation is really generous with you.”

An Ruoxue said with a chuckle.

“It’s alright. Since you’re fine, I’ll go now.”

Su Ming said to An Ruoxue with a straight face.

“Are you sure you want to go? Aren’t you staying?”

An Ruoxue reached out and patted the bed, asking.

“No!”

Su Ming quickly turned and left.

“Wait for me!”

Celes quickly caught up with Su Ming and burrowed into his pocket.

An Ruoxue watched Su Ming leave somewhat awkwardly, and a bright smile also appeared on her face.

The next afternoon · Training room.

Su Ming sat on the chair, his mind somewhat dazed, recalling what had happened yesterday.

“Sir.”

Vickent called out softly.

Su Ming came back to his senses and looked at Vickent, asking,

“What’s wrong?”

“Class is over. We should go to the cafeteria to eat.”

Vickent said to Su Ming.

Only then did Su Ming notice that most of the people in the classroom had already left.

“Oh, you guys go eat. Bring me a portion too. I’m a bit tired and will go back to rest first.”

Su Ming said to Vickent and the other person.

“Okay!”

Vickent and the other person nodded.

Su Ming then got up and left the classroom, heading towards Zone D1.

As he walked into a transit hall, a group of people came towards him, blocking Su Ming’s path.

Su Ming looked up and saw five burly men with fierce eyes and calloused hands, staring at him with ill intent.

It was obvious that these five people were looking for trouble.

However, Su Ming didn’t want to get into a conflict with them, so he moved to the side.

As a result, these five burly men also moved to the side, just not letting Su Ming pass.

Su Ming frowned slightly and turned to leave, but then five more burly men appeared behind him, directly surrounding him.

“What do you want?”

Su Ming asked in a low, hoarse voice.

“What do we want? You still have the nerve to ask me what I want!”

At this moment, the burly men surrounding Su Ming parted, and Comlifu walked out, gritting his teeth, looking at Su Ming with hatred.

“I don’t know you. You’ve got the wrong person.”

When Su Ming saw Comlifu walk out, his heart sank to the bottom, and at the same time, he was a little puzzled as to why this guy was looking for trouble with him. In his impression, he didn’t seem to have any grudges with him.

“Bullshit! You’re exactly who I’m looking for, you filthy commoner! I haven’t even held An Ruoxue’s hand, yet you dared to hug her!”

Comlifu cursed with a distorted face. He was almost driven mad. Yesterday, he anxiously chased to the entrance, only to be stopped by the guard captain, who wouldn’t let him in, so he could only leave dejectedly.

At this point, Su Ming saw that the other party was clearly targeting him, and judging by the situation, things couldn’t be resolved peacefully. However, to prevent exposure, he still tried to explain.

“I was just sending the young lady back to rest.”

“That’s not allowed either.”

“Oh? Then what do you want?”

“What do I want? Chop off those two dirty hands of yours, and I’ll let you off!”

Comlifu replied viciously.

“Oh, then you’ll need the ability to do that.”

Su Ming replied indifferently.

Comlifu was enraged by Su Ming’s arrogance and roared furiously,

“Beat him! Beat him to death!”

As Comlifu gave the order, a burly man swung a sharp fist towards Su Ming.

Su Ming didn’t dodge. In an instant, his entire demeanor changed dramatically. His eyes became extremely sharp, like a fierce beast. He reached out and caught the burly man’s fist.

The burly man’s face immediately showed an expression of extreme pain. At that moment, he felt as if his fist had struck steel, and his bones were about to shatter.

But that wasn’t all. Su Ming held the burly man’s fist and violently flung him backward.

The burly man directly crashed into several companions behind him, sending them flying.

Su Ming, like a swift leopard, charged at another burly man, punching him in the stomach and knocking him down, then turning and kicking one away, immediately rushing towards the others.

In the blink of an eye, eight burly men were all knocked down by Su Ming.

Comlifu was also stunned. He hadn’t expected Su Ming to be so strong, and he roared in annoyance,

“What are you still standing there for? Use your weapons!”

Comlifu’s remaining subordinates immediately reached for the beam guns at their waists.

A cold glint flashed in Su Ming’s eyes. He rushed towards the nearest burly man like a phantom. Before the man could even pull out the beam gun from his waist, a sharp fist came whistling through the air, striking him directly in the face!

Bang!

The man flew straight out, nose bleeding, and crashed heavily to the ground.

At this moment, Comlifu’s last subordinate drew his beam gun, just about to aim it at Su Ming.

However, Su Ming had already appeared in front of him.

The burly man’s face showed an expression of horror. Before he could react,

Su Ming had already gripped the opponent’s wrist, which held the gun, and twisted it violently, dislodging the beam gun from his hand.

“Ah!”

The burly man cried out in pain.

Su Ming kicked him directly, sending him flying.

At this moment, all ten of Comlifu’s subordinates lay on the ground, wailing in agony.

In fact, Su Ming had held back, otherwise these ten people would have already died.

Although his injuries hadn’t fully healed, he had injected the IV Type Genetic Drug, and his strength had long surpassed the normal human range.

At this moment, Su Ming turned his head, looking at Comlifu with cold eyes.

“A bunch of good-for-nothings!”

Comlifu cursed angrily, then charged at Su Ming, throwing a fierce punch.

Seeing that this guy was seeking death, Su Ming no longer dodged. He clenched his right hand into a fist and met the punch with a powerful blow.

Bang~

Their fists collided heavily.

Crack~

A dull sound of bones shattering immediately rang out.

“Ah!”

Comlifu immediately let out a painful scream. He hadn’t expected his strength, enhanced by the Type III Gene Agent, to lose in a direct confrontation.

At this moment, Su Ming showed no mercy. He swung his fist and smashed it into Comlifu’s face.

Bang!

Comlifu’s nose bridge was instantly broken, blood gushed out, and he was completely stunned.

Su Ming did not let Comlifu go. He performed a spinning kick, striking him in the stomach.

Comlifu immediately flew out, falling heavily to the ground. He then clutched his stomach, wailing and begging for mercy.

“Ouch, stop hitting me!”

Actually, it was his bad luck. Su Ming was already in a very irritable mood, and this guy, not knowing his place, ran straight into the line of fire.

“Stop!”

At this moment, a group of guard soldiers rushed over.

Seeing the guards approaching, Su Ming stopped fighting.

Soon, the guards rushed to the two men. They quickly helped the fallen Comlifu up.

“Young Master Comlifu, are you alright?”

“Quick, arrest him.”

Comlifu roared, clutching his bleeding nose.

These guards immediately showed troubled expressions. Although they looked down on these bumpkins from the Theological Corps, they were allies after all, and they couldn’t just arrest someone without reason. At the very least, this matter was not something they could handle, so they all looked at Captain Jekan, who was leading them.

Captain Jekan’s expression changed several times, and he said through gritted teeth,

“Young Master Comlifu, we can’t make decisions on this matter. How about this, I’ll find a doctor to help you bandage up first, and then notify your father and the people from the Theological Corps. Then you can discuss how to handle it.”

“Why aren’t you going already!”

Comlifu roared furiously.

“Yes!”

The guards present quickly responded.

Su Ming, meanwhile, stood calmly in place. The matter had already been exposed, and there was nothing he could say now. He could only face it.

At this moment, Comlifu glared fiercely at Su Ming, leaving a harsh threat.

“You’re dead!”

“I’m waiting.”

Su Ming replied without ceremony.

Before long, Foluoke rushed over with a group of subordinates. When he saw how badly his son had been beaten, he exploded like a powder keg, roaring angrily,

“Son, who beat you like this?”

“Father, it was him!”

Comlifu cried, pointing at Su Ming.

Su Ming looked at Comlifu’s tearful appearance, feeling both angry and amused; it was truly disgraceful.

Foluoke looked at Su Ming furiously and said angrily,

“Brat, how dare you hit my son?”

“I was just defending myself.”

Su Ming replied indifferently.

Foluoke was immediately angered by Su Ming, and he looked at Captain Jekan and the others, laughing in extreme anger.

“What are you waiting for? Why aren’t you arresting this guy?”

“Lord Foluoke, we have already notified the people from the Theological Corps. Why don’t you wait for them to arrive, discuss it, and then handle it?”

Jekan replied with difficulty.

Just as Foluoke was about to lose his temper, a series of footsteps approached.

Su Ming and the others turned their heads and saw Emka In rushing over with Dikufa and others.

When Foluoke saw Emka In and his group arrive, he suppressed his anger, but his expression was still very ugly.

Archbishop Emka In led his people to Su Ming and the others. He glanced at Su Ming, then at the badly beaten Comlifu, and the people lying on the ground wailing in pain, and spoke in a deep voice,

“What happened?”

“Emka In, you’ve come at the right time. Your man inexplicably assaulted my son. Look at what he’s done to my son; it’s simply lawless!”

Foluoke angrily accused.

Emka In turned to Su Ming and asked calmly,

“What’s going on?”

“Sir, they inexplicably blocked me and ganged up on me. I was just defending myself.”

Su Ming answered truthfully.

“Nonsense! He beat me for no reason!”

Comlifu immediately twisted the facts.

Emka In and the others frowned tightly after hearing Comlifu’s words. They weren’t blind; how could one person cause trouble for a group of people? It was clearly these guys who ganged up on their person, but ended up getting beaten back.

Of course, Emka In couldn’t directly expose them. After all, they were still in a state of cooperation, and it wasn’t appropriate to cause unpleasantness at this critical juncture. Plus, their people weren’t injured, so he said,

“Lord Foluoke, I think there might be a misunderstanding in this matter.”

“Lord Emka In, there is no misunderstanding! My son has always been kind and never holds grudges against anyone, much less assaults others. He is clearly lying. Now that he has beaten my son so badly, shouldn’t you give us an explanation?”

Foluoke said to Emka In.

Emka In’s aged face immediately darkened. He naturally understood Foluoke’s implication: the other party was reminding him not to jeopardize their cooperation for the sake of a minor figure.

Upon hearing this, Su Ming’s nerves immediately tensed. Although he was in the right in this matter, the problem was that he was just a small figure. According to normal logic, he would definitely be sold out.

However, to his surprise, Emka In replied coldly,

“Lord Foluoke, I believe you are disrespecting us. If you truly want to seek a fair explanation, then we can retrieve the surveillance footage.”

“That’s right, Lord Emka In is correct! We adhere to the doctrine, upholding the principles of fairness and justice. We will never wrongly accuse anyone, nor will we allow others to wrongly accuse our people.”

Dikufa and the others echoed.

Su Ming was also very surprised to hear Emka In and the others’ words; these people actually defended him.

Foluoke’s face instantly turned as black as charcoal. It would be troublesome if this matter involved retrieving surveillance footage.

However, this didn’t stump Foluoke. He immediately changed his tone and said,

“Emka In, actually, the reason my son targeted him was because he found him very suspicious. Facts prove my son’s conjecture is correct; an unknown fellow with such skills must be problematic!”

“That reason is too far-fetched. Do you have evidence?”

Emka In replied in a deep voice.

“Evidence? That’s simple. Come, strip off his cloak and cloth. I want to see who he is.”

Foluoke said impolitely.
