Chapter 885 - This Is Not Too Slow?!
Lord Shenwu reminded them plenty of times to protect Monarch of the New Dawn and the girls.
If something happened to the group, they would be responsible for the consequences!
The news regarding the events in Geka System already reached the masses two months ago.
They were amazed by his unmatched talent and power. By then they realized the significance of his entire team. They were probably the most individuals in the Human Race.
Old Tai quickly said, “I’ll contact Lord Shenwu. You should go upstairs and check what’s going on!”
Qiao Shuya nodded and quickly rushed over.
On the top floor, Qiao Shuya exited the lift with a nervous expression.
At this time, a frown crossed his face as he was taken aback.
‘Why could he smell food?’ He noticed strange movements in one of the rooms.
Qiao Shuya didn’t dare to proceed.
After all, the soldier knew of the intimate affairs between the girls and the Monarch of the New Dawn.
If he saw something he shouldn’t, would he be annihilated?
When he was about to make a move, one of the doors opened.
Nangong Jing was guzzling a mouthful of wine as she walked out.
Seeing Qiao Shuya, Nangong Jing stiffened. She questioned, “General Qiao Shuya, what’s going on?” Qiao Shuya quickly explained, “We sensed a powerful energy wave coming from here earlier. It disappeared right away. I was worried about your safety. We immediately notified the saints already and went up here to help out.”
After listening, Nangong Jing realized the misconception. The energy belonged to Lu Ze. They probably ended up sensing it.
She didn’t expect they would relay the matter to the elders right away.
Perhaps, they were deeply concerned about their life.
Nangong Jing smiled. “It’s fine. Don’t worry about it.”
Qiao Shuya was stunned.
‘What do you mean by fine?’
‘How would you explain the power wave then?’
He felt bewildered.
At this juncture, another door opened. Lu Li walked out with a plate of spirit food.
An overpowering aroma drifted out of the spirit gathering room. Qiao Shuya: “???”
He looked dazedly at the dish in Lu Li’s hands, and the blue flame inside the room.
‘Where is this?’
‘Who am I?’
‘Why are they cooking inside a reputable cultivation building?’
At this moment, Lu Li saw the other person too. She was shocked.
Lu Li smiled politely and nodded. “Hello General Qiao Shuya.”
After the greeting, she moved to another spirit gathering room.
Qiao Shuya scanned the situation inside and saw the luxurious couch, including the exquisite dinner table. “???”
‘Oh shit!’
‘Is this actually the spirit gathering room they had been guarding?’ When Lu Li placed the food on the table, he became dumbfounded.
‘Isn’t this a restaurant instead?’
Right then, another door opened. This time, it was Lu Ze. He walked out of the spirit gathering room with a smile. He already smelled food, and his cultivation level had stabilized already. Of course, he should come out to eat appetizing dishes.
Soon enough, he realized Qiao Shuya was standing in the corridor.
Lu Ze’s smile stiffened.
‘Um... are they in trouble now?’
Lu Ze felt embarrassed.
The two looked at each other awkwardly.
Lu Ze wondered whether he should invite Qiao Shuya as well.
‘Maybe, he would keep the secret for them?’
Lu Ze smiled. “General Qiao Shuya, how about we eat together?” Qiao Shuya: “...”
His mouth twitched as he forced out a smile. “No, no, thank you for the invitation. I still need to guard the building.... Um, since you’re not in danger, I’ll go down then.”
Following his statement, he returned to the
lift.
Lu Ze looked at Nangong Jing. “Jing Jing, why did he go up here?”
Nangong Jing rolled her eyes. “It’s entirely your doing. They also felt it when you released your chi. Qiao Shuya thought something happened to us.”
Lu Ze said, “So that’s it. I just wanted to test how strong my combat power has become.”
He put his arm around Nangong Jing’s waist and said, “Let’s go inside.”
Old Tai saw Qiao Shuya come out with a strange expression, and he asked nervously, “What happened?”
Qiao Shuya gulped some saliva upon recalling the intense mouthwatering scent. ... It seemed really tasty.
But he couldn’t accept such bribery...
Monarch of the New Dawn and the girls were treating one of the precious rooms as his kitchen. He should relay the matter to the saints.
They were the future hope of the Federation after all.
Qiao Shuya looked at Old Tai. “Were you able to contact the saints?”
Old Tai nodded. “Yes.”
The saints hung up immediately and made their way when he finished speaking.
Qiao Shuya nodded.
Alice and the girls spent an hour cooking enough delicious food to fill a table.
Lu Ze, Nangong Jing, and Qiuyue Hesha drooled at the smell.
Alice said, “Time to eat.”
Lu Ze cheered, “Alice is the best!”
He grabbed a piece of meat and ate it.
“Hmm?!” Lu Li and Lin Ling narrowed their eyes.
Lu Ze stopped chewing and quickly added, “Li and Lin Ling are also the best!”
But then, Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha also looked over.
Lu Ze: “...”
He faked a cough. “Hesha and Jing Jing are also the best.”
Lu Ze gasped.
After lunch, the group sat on the couch with satisfaction and rested.
Right now, they looked outside.
Someone knocked on the door to the room where all of them were staying.
Alice quickly went over and saw Elder Nangong, Elder Lin, and Saint Shenwu standing outside.
They seemed quite anxious.
Lu Ze and the girls were taken aback.
Lu Ze asked, “What’s wrong, Elders?” Elder Nangong was just about to speak when he smelled the aroma and asked, “Hmm? Why is it so fragrant here?”
Lu Ze and the girls: “...”
Right away, the three elders noticed the empty plates on the table.
Elder Nangong’s mouth twitched. He glared at Lu Ze angrily. “Didn’t I specifically tell you to cultivate?”
Lu Ze explained, “We did though.”
Thereafter, as though fearing the elders wouldn’t believe him, Lu Ze said, “My combat power has reached the cosmic system state.”
“????”
The three old men gawked at Lu Ze.
Lu Ze scratched his head.
‘Are they not happy with his progress?’ Lu Ze argued, “... It only took me two months and a half to reach the cosmic system state. This speed isn’t too slow, right?”
The elders: “...”
