[I have something to report] Impartial Goddess suddenly spoke: [Because of the Fuxi military mass sortie, Martial Saint Zhang Zong Yang has left the presidential office, currently on his way to the frontline]
Gu Qing Shan immediately become cautious and asked: “Where is the President now?”
[The President is currently busy with many things, enough for him to not answer my attempts at contact]
“Not answering your attempts at contact… what exactly is he busy with?”
[The 3 armies’ pre-war arrangements, furthermore, he will appear on TV half an hour later to broadcast a national call to action]
No one could believe two of the biggest countries in the world were about to start an all-out war.
Countless people will be killed in this was.
“The Martial Saint is headed to the frontline… That’s very not OK, the President might be in danger, I’ll have to go meet him right away!” Gu Qing Shan said.
Gu Qing Shan flew up.
A shuttle received him in midair, heading towards the capital.
The mountaintop mansion is located on the outskirts of the capital, so he didn’t need a lot of time to reach the presidential office.
While Gu Qing Shan was repairing the Chao Yin Sword, Liao Xing was waiting for him in the living room.
He was smoking, waiting until Gu Qing Shan was free to ask about the entire story from start to end.
But then Gu Qing Shan flew away right after he’s done.
Liao Xing quickly snuffed out the cigarette, took out his Holo-Brain and called Gu Qing Shan.
“Why are you in so much of a hurry, you didn’t even finish what we were talking about earlier”
[I’ll tell you after this, I have an emergency on my hand and have to get to the President right away] Gu Qing Shan answered.
Then he hung up.
“Damn it!”
Liao Xing angrily threw the Holo-Brain down and cursed.
“What’s with all the ruckus” Ye Fei Li scowled as he came in.
“I still don’t know the entire truth yet; this is nothing but torture to a scientist!”
Liao Xing was breathing heavily in frustration.
“What exactly can you do even if you know?” Ye Fei Li asked.
Liao Xing just stared at him, speechless.
Ye Fei Li spoke: “You already got a cultivation scripture don’t you? Shouldn’t you be trying to get stronger as fast as possible, so that whatever grudge you have you can just do deal with by yourself without relying on other people?”
“Hmph!” Liao Xing slammed the door and left.
Ye Fei Li just stood there and said nothing.
The female wandering spirit floated up and said something to him.
Ye Fei Li looked at his girl, smiling softly: “I’m doing this for his sake. Without a bit of motivation, he’ll fall behind too much, at that time, no one will be able to help him”
After doing his best to study the scripture Gu Qing Shan gave him, he can already see her.
The girl floated and whispered something to his ears.
“Alright, you’re too much of a good girl for your own good, I’ll go and persuade him some more”
…
Liao Xing took his Holo-Brain out again.
“Impartial Goddess”
[I’m here, Mr. Liao]
“Tell me everything that happened from the start to now”
Liao Xing was asking this with an absolute serious tone of voice unlike anything else before.
[I’ll have to ask sir Gu Qing Shan first] Impartial Goddess said.
After a while.
Impartial Goddess began to tell him everything that happened recently.
“How come you don’t notice anything despite so much happening recently?” Liao Xing angrily berated.
[Mr. Liao, when humans purposefully avoid all manners of monitoring, even I could only give up]
“Shouldn’t you at least know about Tang Jun’s affairs better than Gu Qing Shan!?” Liao Xing further raised his voice.
[I was powerless during Tang Jun’s affair]
“Why is that?”
[Powerful Professionists act very fast, I had no method to stop them. In the end, I’m only machine, I can’t control human criminals and their crimes] Impartial Goddess answered.
“So many lives are at stake here, how are you so useless!?” Liao Xing shouted.
The Holo-Brain shut down.
Impartial Goddess had disconnected herself.
The S.W. Divine Temple.
On a large screen, all the flowing data suddenly stopped.
A sobbing expression appeared in their place.
Deep inside the Divine Temple, all of the items won by the Game of Eternal’s Champions has already been thoroughly destroyed.
No one knows exactly how Impartial Goddess achieved such a thing.
The sobbing expression quickly disappeared.
A line of text appeared on the screen.
[Project authority level: Top Secret]
[Project authority known: 2 people]
[Project name: Higher realm’s Laws and Powers suppression research]
[Calculating current project progress]
[Conclusion: project progress at 31%]
[Estimating project remaining research time]
[The project will end in 564 hours]
[Concluded that the situation is urgent, more resources shall be spent on completing this project sooner]
…
Liao Xing just stood in place, stunned, almost holding his breath.
“You’re quite the brave one huh? Lashing out at Impartial Goddess like that?” Ye Fei Li went out of the living room and commented.
Liao Xing closed his eyes and dejectedly sighed: “I just lost it for a bit, it’ll be fine, it’s just a machine after all…”
“Just leave it to Gu Qing Shan” Ye Fei Li consoled him, “that guy has always been strong, now he’s even stronger than ever before, so he’ll be fine regardless of any problems”
“Of course he’ll be fine, but as a top-level scientist, I can’t even attempt to do anything at such a crucial time” Liao Xing said.
As if suddenly remembering something, he had an expression of untold sorrow.
“Are you okay?” Ye Fei Li asked him, a bit worried.
He thought for a bit, then took a nearby bottle of liquor and poured two glasses for the both of them.
They sat down and drank on the spot.
One gulp for one glass.
Ye Fei Li topped Liao Xing’s glass up and drank another with him.
Finally, Liao Xing’s expression loosened a bit.
He said: “Thank you for the booze”
“No need, you’re a man, try and think for yourself a bit more, don’t just act so angry all the time” Ye Fei Li stood up.
“Where are you going?” Liao Xing asked.
“Cultivating with my wife”
Ye Fei Li continued to walk while answering: “After I started to cultivate, I slowly discovered more and more about the mysteries of my own evolution, as well as learning a few more methods of attack. There’s probably not that many people in the world that can actually beat me”
He left just like that.
Liao Xing was a bit shaken.
He then put down the shot glass and returned to his room.
Sitting down cross-legged, Liao Xing flipped the pages of his scripture and began to seriously read it.
“These things are very simple… even if my body is weak, I’ll definitely surpass you…”
He mumbled to himself.
…
In the sky, the rain hasn’t stopped.
The cold wind blew harshly as the rain fell without rhythm.
The presidential office.
The front yard.
The President stood on the grassy yard, arms crossed, silently waiting.
One of his aides held an umbrella up for him.
Secret service agents were scattered around, protecting him.
In the thunderstorm, a streak of light quickly came.
Gu Qing Shan’s shuttle landed from the air.
The shuttle door opened.
Gu Qing Shan came out.
The President stood there, extending his hand.
They shook hands.
“This rain is too oppressive, there was no need for you to personally come out and wait for me” Gu Qing Shan said.
He was still a bit emotional from finding out that the President has been using clones as scapegoats to avoid countless assassination attempts from the 9 Lords.
Just goes to show, you can’t underestimate old men.
“There’s so much work to do that I had to use this as an excuse to take a breather” the President replied.
His expression was heavy, unclear whether it was because of the heavy workload, or because of the upcoming war.
They came back into the office from the walkway on the yard.
The thick wooden door closed behind as they came on, separating them from the storm outside.
Dark clouds kept gathering as thunder and lightning rampaged across the sky.
The planet was being plunged further and further into darkness.
