"Su Xuan, are we taking action tonight?"
Akihime smiled slightly, but her face showed some concern. In truth, she’s not very optimistic about this mission. As someone from the Akihime Family, she knew many experts were at the experiment base, and rescuing people while destroying the base would be extremely difficult, especially now that they’ve entered a special period, making it even more complex.
"We’re acting tomorrow night. We initially planned for tonight, but one of our team is not yet in position. Missing a day won’t matter!"
Su Xuan smiled faintly. He originally wanted to act tonight but wasn’t prepared. He understood that without proper preparation, it’s very dangerous and everyone might end up trapped without completing the plan. Su Xuan really didn’t have much faith in this plan; it was like a trap. He had to break through this War God plan since it’s too harmful. If those beasts actually discovered some dinosaur genes, there would be no telling how much trouble they could stir up.
"Alright, I’ll lead you there tomorrow!"
Hui bit her lip, while Su Xuan smiled lightly and said.
"Akihime, it’s unfair to you. If I could choose, I wouldn’t want you involved in this matter."
Su Xuan said seriously. If he had a choice, he really wouldn’t want Akihime entangled in this. He understood it was very difficult for her.
The matter was fundamentally targeting Japan, and Akihime might defy her parents’ wishes. Su Xuan could see Akihime seemed to be a good girl.
According to Akihime, it was nearly impossible to find the experiment base without someone guiding them. Thus, reluctantly, Su Xuan involved Akihime, hoping she could help them find it quickly.
This mission was truly crucial. If the War God plan was indeed researched successfully by the Japanese madmen, unpredictable events could arise, given their ambitious nature, reminiscent of their boast to merge Huaxia within three months in the past.
"Hey, Su Xuan, do you think you might be my destined calamity? I’ve read many novels, and they always say some women inevitably encounter their destined calamity. Clearly, Su Xuan is her calamity."
"Cough, maybe. Akihime, I’m sorry it’s hard on you!"
Su Xuan felt a bit guilty, thinking this was almost sinful, yet there seemed to be no choice—a tight spot only Akihime could unravel.
Akihime laughed softly, looking at Su Xuan, saying.
"Just like a moth to a flame, knowing it’s a pitfall yet still jumping in without regard. Su Xuan, I only wish you remember an overseas girl was willing to forsake everything, even her entire family, for you!"
Akihime spoke seriously, and Su Xuan pulled her into his arms, saying softly.
"Silly girl, what are you saying? Rest assured, after this is over, come with me to Huaxia, where your true home is! Isn’t there a saying—where you are, that’s home."
Su Xuan smiled faintly, and in that instant, Akihime nodded lightly, tears flowing from her eyes, thinking, am I really going to have that chance, Brother Xuan, if Akihime can’t stay by your side in the future, take good care of yourself.
After Su Xuan and Akihime left the KTV, it was already twelve. After dropping Akihime off at her home and walking a short distance, Su Xuan suddenly felt someone tailing him, immediately becoming alert, a smirk forming at his lips, thinking.
"Damn, someone’s actually following me. I have to see who this is."
Su Xuan said as he strolled casually forward. When he arrived at a pavilion surrounded by a lakeside, Su Xuan stood in the pavilion and suddenly leaped, diving into the lakeside with a loud splash, disappearing.
Not long after, a dark figure quickly appeared at the pavilion. The person dressed in black clothes, face covered by a black veil, a long blade strapped to the back, stood observing where Su Xuan had jumped, intrigued.
Suddenly she was startled, and as she turned quickly, Su Xuan landed a kick on her chest. The next moment, she was sent flying into the waters with a loud crash.
"Whoa, it’s a woman! I gotta say, nice feel—no, I mean, nice kick!"
Su Xuan rubbed his nose, shamelessly speaking. Apparently, he hadn’t jumped at all; the splash was a result of him channeling Primordial Qi, causing waves with a palm strike. He led the follower here because it was wide open and perfect for unveiling which bored soul was tailing him. Su Xuan was quite nosy and wanted to know who was so interested in him.
Suddenly, the sound of water breaking echoed, and at that instant, a dark figure surfaced with her long blade swiftly slicing toward Su Xuan, turning raindrops into darts that shot toward him.
Su Xuan tapped his toe on the ground, gliding swiftly backward, spreading his hands open and flipping mid-air. The raindrops nearly grazed his face as they roared past. Su Xuan casually captured a drop, flicked it with his middle finger, and with a clang, it collided with the woman’s blade, producing a crisp sound. The woman was instantly knocked backward, falling into the water again. Yet, her Kung Fu seemed quite proficient; upon falling, she slapped the water surface, spinning backward like a vortex before landing on a wooden post on the lake.
"Damn, who are you?!"
At this moment, the woman’s eyes narrowed, gazing at Su Xuan, filled with Killing Aura.
"Uh, who are you? Hey, I heard you’re a woman! Are you good-looking? Don’t tell me you fancy me! Being handsome is trouble, indeed, but it’s not my fault I’m handsome."
