Baiyu scrutinized Yi Xian in front of him.
The two have been together for such a long time that they basically understand each other well.
They are truly "good mentors and friends."
Everyone essentially wants to kill the other, provided they get enough benefits from them.
For example, Baiyu wants to gain knowledge of Mechanical Science and Magic Kinetics from Yi Xian.
Also needs Baiyu to provide her with identity cover.
Now that this situation has happened, Baiyu has to consider whether keeping Yi Xian around is more advantageous or disadvantageous.
The other party is clearly not a benevolent saint. This content belongs to novel⦿fire.net
If he continues to keep her, it might cause many hidden dangers and pose a substantial threat to Baiyu’s safety.
"Teacher, let’s deal with this matter later. You first..."
Baiyu exhaled deeply, speaking.
Yi Xian was silent for a moment, then nodded, "I will stay in the apartment for the next few days, talk when you’re done."
Although the two haven’t had too many conflicts or disputes, clearly, neither trusts the other.
His wariness towards Yi Xian is even stronger than before.
They exchanged a few words.
Yi Xian bade farewell to Baiyu with a grim expression, opened the door, and returned to her room.
She stared at the wall, feeling distressed, "At this particular time, Qiu Shouzheng came looking.
Otherwise, my relationship with Baiyu wouldn’t be .
Next, he will want to find a way to restrain me."
Yi Xian felt extreme hatred towards Qiu Shouzheng, blaming her for his lack of ability.
Signs of mutation have appeared, yet he continues to study.
Isn’t this seeking death?
She sighed repeatedly, feeling a bit pitiful inside, and bit her lip tightly.
One can only take it step by step.
Though he was busy all night, Baiyu was still refreshed, feeling no fatigue whatsoever.
After becoming a Martial Artist, one’s spirit and will inevitably improve as cultivation increases.
His Core Technique’s recovery power is incredibly strong, almost reaching a terrifying level.
Since today the dean is rallying all members of the Veterans Mutual Aid Association.
The matter with Yi Xian was temporarily set aside, and he didn’t even enter the Dream Realm during this period.
The Mutual Aid Association is the utmost priority.
In front of the Veterans Mutual Aid Association, many expensive steam cars parked, even though Villiduo bans flying vehicles.
But cars, even when driving on the ground, are not slow.
Baiyu used to have several cars, but due to Linjiang City and Zenith City’s two major disasters, he has none now.
The transportation in Villiduo is extremely convenient, making it hard for him to consider buying another one.
Due to the special situation today.
Normally empty at dawn, the Veterans Mutual Aid Association was crowded today.
Logistics Department, Inspection Department, Operation Department.
All operatives gathered in the Mutual Aid Association’s large yard, with a massive fountain pool at its center, with many coins at the bottom.
This is a wishing pool.
This is also a source of income for the Veterans Mutual Aid Association.
Retired veterans visiting the association or handling matters often contribute tens to hundreds to the pool.
Every time Logistics Department members fished out coins, Baiyu looked on with some envy.
This is what you call a job where you sit and count money.
As time passed, not only did the three departments arrive, but important figures from Villiduo continued to come.
Such as Anomaly Bureau.
Such as Bounty Hunter Association.
Such as Holy Light Church.
Basically, all prominent forces in Villiduo sent representatives, and some of Villiduo’s dignitaries came to the scene.
The president had already contacted these people, ready to announce big news today.
The Veterans Mutual Aid Association has three departments in total.
The Operation Department and the Logistics Department both have directors and deputy directors.
Only the Inspection Department.
The chief director followed the president into the Spirit Realm and died, leaving only Baiyu as the deputy director to lead.
The trio stood at the forefront of their respective teams.
And their department members stood behind them.
The Veterans Mutual Aid Association, as a formal organization, resembles a sect power, and its rules have a distinctly worldly flair.
Once nearly everyone arrived.
The president, wearing a white hospital gown, pale-faced, emerged from the inner hall of the Veterans Mutual Aid Association.
His face wore a smile, with gray hair meticulously combed.
Making him appear somewhat spirited.
Baiyu knows very well his injuries cannot heal so quickly; this display is obviously feigned.
After greeting some old friends, the president came to the center of the yard.
"Ladies and gentlemen, inviting you here today indeed involves two extremely important matters I wish to disclose."
The crowd’s buzzing gradually quieted.
Everyone’s attention focused on the president.
"Everyone must be very curious about what our Veterans Mutual Aid Association encountered during this Spirit Realm expedition."
The president wore a faint smile.
Upon hearing this, the crowd’s attention completely converged.
Their presence today.
One reason was the president’s reputation; they couldn’t refuse. His formidable power and vast network make him one of the few in Villiduo able to decide on significant matters.
Another reason was their genuine curiosity about the mishap the Veterans Mutual Aid Association encountered in the Spirit Realm.
They haven’t seen the association suffer such a great loss for many years.
"Let’s start with the first matter."
The president smiled lightly, pondered for a moment, and said: "Our trip to the Spirit Realm was to tackle the Sea Demon Race’s attack on human settlements and also because we discovered a ruin.
A small, unexplored ruin.
We decided to explore it on our own, but the encounter inside came at a grievous cost.
Was an entirely new race!
Though few in number, each was ferocious in battle, and immune to many Spirit Techniques.
Coupled with our unfamiliarity with the ruin’s terrain.
Resulting in heavy casualties."
An entirely new race.
This is absolutely explosive news.
Though it only exists in ruins, it might be a remnant of ancient civilization, and such races usually have very few members, barely qualifying as a race.
Such ruins also signify the presence of valuable treasures inside.
Possibly obtaining some ancient artifacts and knowledge from past civilizations.
Seeing the crowd’s expressions.
The president continued: "Since I’ve disclosed this matter, I’ll definitely share the ruin’s coordinates with everyone later.
Next, the second matter.
The new leader of the Veterans Mutual Aid Association..."
