Chapter 756: It’s You?!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After thinking for a while, Meng Shaoran couldn’t find an answer as to why the chubby man died so easily. In order to defeat the chubby man, he had used his most powerful attack, which he intended to use to just injure the chubby man and to follow it up with more attacks of his own but instead, he died with just one attack, leaving no traces behind except for a pile of ashes.

While they were fighting, Su Pei used the opportunity and moved far away from them. He hated the domain realm master who taught him for five years but he still felt grateful for his teachings. He taught him that he must retreat as far away as possible when two domain realm masters were fighting.

When Su Pei saw Meng Shaoran defeating the chubby man, his respect for Meng Shaoran skyrocketed. This young man who was the same age as him might be even more powerful than his ‘master’. After the fight ended, he inched closer to Meng Shaoran as he felt safer as he got closer to him.

“Thank...” Su Pei didn’t know how to address Meng Shaoran.

“No need. If you want to repay me, just tell me what you are doing here.” Meng Shaoran was asking about it because it was his mission.

Su Pei wanted to repay his favour to Meng Shaoran. However, he was worried about Xiao Yiqiu’s safety, so he said, “No problem, but my friend, Xiao Yiqiu, is chased by that guy’s accomplice.”

Meng Shaoran smiled nonchalantly. “If he was beaten to death on the spot, you would only find his corpse by now. If he was caught, do you think I would enter their base and save him?”

Su Pei felt his heart dropped. He knew that this young man didn’t have the responsibility to save Xiao Yiqiu but he still tried asking. The people guarding outside the base were already domain realm masters. It meant that those people inside the base were even stronger. Meng Shaoran would not take this risk for a stranger.

“As long as he is still alive, we will have a chance of saving him.” Meng Shaoran continued, “If you really want to help him, tell me everything you know. With enough information, we can plan our actions.”

Su Pei knew what Meng Shaoran said would lead them to the highest chance of them saving Xiao Yiqiu, so he quickly calmed down and organized his thoughts. He told Meng Shaoran how his family met a domain realm master five years ago and why he came to Planet Azure.

“They have already infiltrated the powerful families of this planet.” Meng Shaoran was serious. His superiors were right to worry.

After getting the information he wanted, Meng Shaoran prepared to leave. The people protecting the outskirts of the base were domain realm masters. Although there seemed to be something weird about them, it was undeniable that they had domain power and knew how to control it. The people at the base should be more powerful than the chubby man. Him as a sole domain realm master couldn’t win against so many domain realm masters even if there was something weird about them. Meng Shaoran was here to complete his mission, not to look for death.

Su Pei got agitated when he saw Meng Shaoran preparing to leave. He immediately shouted, “Are you really from Flying Dragon Special Forces? If so, can you tell me your name?”

Meng Shaoran stopped. He raised his eyebrows and smiled at Su Pei. “Is that important?”

Su Pei clenched his fist. “If you are from Flying Dragon Special Forces, then... I want to enter your force.” This might be the only chance to realize his dream.

Meng Shaoran looked at Su Pei intently. He smiled. “You have to work hard then. With your current strength, you might not even be able to have the right to take the entrance test.” If Su Pei became as strong as him before he turned 25 years old, they might be able to meet again. Meng Shaoran finally was a little interest in Su Pei. However, it was just a little.

Meng Shaoran left after he finished speaking. Su Pei tried to chase after him. Yet, no matter how fast he ran, he was not able to catch up with Meng Shaoran. Meng Shaoran looked as though he was just casually walking but his speed was very fast.

Just as Meng Shaoran was about to disappear from his sight, Su Pei shouted, “I will definitely get into the Flying Dragon Special Forces. Will you tell me who you are then?”

Meng Shaoran didn’t look back. He raised his right hand and waved. Let’s talk when you really get in! That was what he seemed to be saying.

In a blink of an eye, Meng Shaoran disappeared. Su Pei was disappointed. But, he quickly pushed his disappointment to the back of his head. He needed to get out of the forest quickly and find someone to rescue Xiao Yiqiu. Meng Shaoran said that he would help him but Su Pei wasn’t going to place all his hopes on just one person.

He didn’t trust any instructor in the school. Hence, he wanted to find Li Lanfeng. Li Lanfeng didn’t look very trustworthy but as someone from the 23rd division, Su Pei was willing to believe him.

Ling Xiao had been Su Pei’s idol ever since he was a child. Instinctively, he had been duplicating Ling Xiao’s actions and words. He believed that they were no spies in his idol’s division.

While Su Pei went to look for Li Lanfeng, Meng Shaoran hid behind a tree and sent the information he got. Then, he returned to the forest. He had to get in touch with someone sent by the military. This was part of his mission too. If he guessed correctly, it should be one of his roommates. He didn’t know which one it was but now was the time for the person to be revealed.

Leng Hanfeng and the person who saved him managed to resist against their opponent’s attack. However, he was using everything he had to fight against his opponent so he was starting to feel the fatigue coming to him. He panted heavily.

The person who helped him was no better than him. The two of them took another blow by the middle-aged man, forcing them to retreat ten meters back. Leng Hanfeng vomited another mouthful of blood. He was already heavily injured.

“You run away first. I can distract him for ten seconds. After that, I will run,” the person who helped him whispered to Leng Hanfeng.

Leng Hanfeng looked up in surprise. The person nodded. Leng Hanfeng remained silent for a moment before nodding.

“When I say attack, you will run.” The person formed a stance as he spoke. He looked as though he was going to give it his all in a final strike.

Leng Hanfeng slowly nodded. He started to pretend that he was going to give a final strike too, but secretly he placed most of his weight on his legs. The moment he heard the person shout, he would release all his energy and run away. The person was looking at the middle-aged man but when he saw Leng Hanfeng’s actions from the corner of his eye, he gave a look of approval.

The middle-aged man saw their stance and turned vigilant. He was much stronger than them but if they attacked him without care, the outcome would be hard to tell. He prepared himself for their attack. His eyes turned sharp. The moment they attack, he would find their weakness and kill them with a single strike.

“Attack!” The person shouted. The middle-aged man prepared to defend himself. However, he saw one of them suddenly retreating.

I got tricked! The middle-aged man was furious. He wanted to chase after him but the other person blocked him. The Qi-Jin power on the person’s body increased exponentially and broke the Qi-Jin boundary.

A half step to domain! The middle-aged man was shocked. No one below the domain stage would be able to defeat a person at this stage. He released all his Qi-Jin and attacked his opponent.

“Boom!” The sound rang through the entire forest. Leng Hanfeng slowed down a little. He turned his head back and looked at the direction of the battle. “Domain? No...” He muttered to himself.

He had a complicated look in his eyes. He hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and continuing his way out of the forest. About ten seconds later, he stopped and leaned weakly against a tree. He used his last ounce of energy to punch the tree. Then, he turned and went back.

He only left for less than 20 seconds but the place had already turned into a pile of ruins. Leng Hanfeng looked around him. He didn’t see any corpses so he relaxed. The person who saved him was not killed, but he didn’t know where the person went. Is the middle-aged man chasing him?

Leng Hanfeng didn’t know what to do now. Suddenly, a pile of soil was pushed up and a person crawled out. The person looked haggard but the uniform of the Central Scout Academy could still be seen.

This was the person who saved him. Leng Hanfeng was elated. Before he could speak, the person scolded him in a soft tone, “Idiot! Didn’t I ask you to run? Why did you come back? Are you looking for death?”

Leng Hanfeng opened his mouth but no words would come out. The person was right. His decision was the same as looking for death. However, if he didn’t come back, he wouldn’t be able to forgive himself for his entire life.

The person’s expression softened. He had already guessed Leng Hanfeng’s intentions of coming back. “Fortunately, I used a secret method and managed to fool that man. If not, you would be dead.”

“Thank you!” Leng Hanfeng only said these two words.

“Why are you thanking me? We are roommates, right?” The person suddenly smiled. He rubbed his face forcefully and soon, the disguise on his face was rubbed off, and Gu Zhengrong’s handsome face was revealed.

“Gu Zhengrong! It’s you?!” Leng Hanfeng exclaimed in surprise.

“Of course it’s me. Who do you think I was? If I didn’t recognize you, I wouldn’t have taken the risk to save you.” Gu Zhengrong looked at his torn and tattered school uniform, then decided to take it off, revealing his muscular body.

Leng Hanfeng looked closely at the tattered school uniform. He finally understood why it looked so familiar. It was a female school uniform. He suddenly remembered that Gu Zhengrong went to the female’s dormitory to disguise himself as a female.
