"I’m not going," Gu Yuluo still refused curtly.
Leaning lazily against the wall, her eyes slightly lowered to the ground, her gaze dark and unreadable.
"Why not?" 007 asked, flabbergasted.
Usually, they would do these kinds of things together, and 007 hadn’t expected Gu Yuluo to refuse so outright.
"Oh, Ancient Martial Arts has been sealed. Can’t use it," Gu Yuluo replied indifferently, her tone devoid of any other emotion besides nonchalance.
"What? Who sealed it? When did that happen?" 007, hearing Gu Yuluo’s words, was completely dumbfounded. "You’re not messing with me, are you?"
"You should find someone else for this," Gu Yuluo said softly, then paused as if she had second thoughts and added, "If you can’t find anyone, wait until Moon is done with her stuff, and go together with her—guaranteed success."
"But I can wait, I’m just afraid my daughter can’t," 007 spoke mournfully, his voice tinged with sorrow. "She’s only three months old, hasn’t even had a chance to see this beautiful world, and as her godmother, how can you bear it?"
Gu Yuluo stayed silent for a moment upon hearing this, then after a few seconds, she spoke up. "I’ll give you a tip."
"What is it?" 007 perked up immediately.
"Leak the news of Luya Base’s new location in Soraya to the Ever Winning Army. Let them take care of destroying the base. You slip in during the chaos, just save your daughter. At that time, I’ll hack into their system to cover your escape," Gu Yuluo said in a low voice, her eyes still cast downward.
"But how can we be sure that the Ever Winning Army will act soon?" 007’s voice was laced with worry and heaviness.
The Ever Winning Army would indeed send someone to take down a terrorist organization’s nest once they knew about it.
Angel and the Ever Winning Army had been long-term foes, harboring deep-seated grudges against each other.
The Ever Winning Army was especially relentless when it came to Angel.
However, the timing of the Ever Winning Army’s action was uncertain.
After all, the Ever Winning Army had its hands full every day with countless matters. It seemed unlikely they could dispatch people to Soraya on short notice.
"They will," Gu Yuluo asserted with surety.
"Hmm? Are you certain?" 007 expressed his doubts.
"Not long ago, someone from Angel’s side stole voice data of a manager from the Ever Winning Army and tricked Tang Yichen by impersonating the manager, severely wounding him and a captain from Team Seventeen. The Ever Winning Army hasn’t forgotten that grudge."
"That happened? How do you know?" 007’s interest was piqued, and he inquired with curiosity.
"The person who wounded Tang Yichen didn’t die. After escaping, they bragged about it online, and I just happened to see it," Gu Yuluo explained.
As soon as Gu Yuluo finished speaking, the sound of furious typing on a keyboard came from 007’s end.
"It’s been deleted," Gu Yuluo replied blandly.
Realization dawned on 007, "Yeah, the Ever Winning Army wouldn’t allow that kind of thing to spread on the internet."
"Alright, I’m hanging up. Let me know when you’re going to make your move," Gu Yuluo said, about to end the call.
"Hey, wait, you still haven’t told me who sealed your Ancient Martial Arts..."
The rest of the words were cut off as Gu Yuluo hung up the phone.
Gu Yuluo put away her phone, casually stuffing it into her pocket, her gaze still downward as she leaned against the wall.
About a minute passed before she exhaled a cloud of turbid breath and started walking towards the house.
But after only a few steps, as she looked up, she saw a girl standing by the flowerbed, apparently admiring the flowers.
The girl stood quietly and lazily, her eyes on the flowerbed, her expression weary. It was unclear whether she was truly enjoying the flowers or simply staring blankly at them.
Seeing this, Gu Yuluo hesitated for a moment.
