Just Discharged From the Military and Got Tied Down by A Cold Beauty
Chapter 664: At this moment, I am just like a bootlicker

Chapter 664: Chapter 664: At this moment, I am just like a bootlicker

Qiao Lin thought for nearly three minutes and finally, albeit reluctantly, handed the smartphone over to Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao pressed the power button and sure enough, it was out of battery.

However, this wasn’t a problem for him; the next second, arcs of electricity were swirling around his fingertips.

"Electric Power Superhero, huh? Impressive." Qiao Lin’s eyes showed envy at the sight of the electric arc around Lu Xiao’s fingers.

Electric power was strong, a coveted ability among all Superpower Users.

Even the current Holy Hall’s Bishop was an Electric System Superpower User, at the Dominator Level of Thunder.

Lu Xiao ignored Qiao Lin, continuously funneling the electric arc into the smartphone.

After around two minutes, the phone lit up.

"You... this... how do you know how to use this?" Qiao Lin was taken aback as she watched Lu Xiao operate the phone skillfully, her mind struggling to keep up.

This was an item from the outside world, and not only did this man know how to charge it but also how to turn it on.

Did that mean that the man in front of her, just like their benefactor, actually came from the outside world?

Without any response from Lu Xiao, he just waited for the boot screen to pass and then immediately opened the recent call history.

The last call was recorded on April 17th.

Lu Xiao opened his mouth and a bitter smile appeared on his face.

April 17th was the day he parted with Chen Fei in Meili Country.

So, since that day, she had not made a single call to him.

"You..."

"You can leave now. Come find me tomorrow morning; I’ll take you to the Holy Hall Academy." Lu Xiao pocketed the phone.

Feeling the sudden shift in Lu Xiao’s mood, Qiao Lin dared not say more, simply acknowledged and left the room.

...

Lu Xiao didn’t sleep all night, fiddling with the phone.

Although there was no signal, he could still see quite a lot.

Like chat history in messaging apps, photos and videos of him and Chen Fei in the gallery.

"Right now, I am just like a pathetic love-struck pup." Watching as the sky outside began to lighten, Lu Xiao couldn’t help but snort with laughter, then got up, washed his face, and left the house.

As soon as he arrived downstairs, Lu Xiao saw Qiao Lin.

Qiao Lin had an extra bag in her hand, likely containing clothes and travel funds.

Lu Xiao simply nodded lightly to Qiao Lin, then went straight out the door and headed toward the Inner District of the Holy Hall Gathering Place.

About an hour into the journey, Lu Xiao purchased a donkey cart.

The donkey cart took nearly four to five hours to finally reach the Inner District.

There was a ring of city walls separating the periphery of the Holy Hall Gathering Place and the Inner District.

Between the Inner District and the Central District, there was another ring of city walls.

And between the Central District and the Holy Hall High Tower, there was a third layer of city walls.

Each layer was more elevated than the last and each harder to enter than the last.

"Halt, the Inner District is ahead, and no random passage is permitted, please show your credentials." As soon as the two got close to the city gate, they were stopped by a group of guards.

Qiao Lin looked at Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao was stunned for two seconds, credentials? I don’t have any damn credentials.

"Why are you looking at me? I don’t have any credentials. Or, should I just kill them all?" Lu Xiao indicated the guards surrounding them.

Qiao Lin was completely frightened; is this guy insane?

Is this something one could just blurt out?

As expected, as soon as the words fell from Lu Xiao’s mouth, nearly ten guards turned vigilant.

Each one began to exude their superpower, all ten were Intermediate Superpower Users.

"Ah, he’s talking nonsense, he didn’t mean it, he... has a problem with his brain," Qiao Lin hurriedly explained, for without it, they would have been killed on the spot.

All ten guards looked at Lu Xiao, realizing he had mental issues.

They were scared to death, thinking they had encountered some wildly violent thug.

Lu Xiao paid no mind to the stares, instead addressing the leading Guard Captain, "So, does this mean we can go in now?"

The Guard Captain was perplexed, what do you mean can we go in now?

Definitely a case of a few screws loose.

What a pity, the girl was so pretty but ended up with such a burden.

He couldn’t figure out the relationship between this man and the lady...

"I’m not in a great mood today, so you’d better... make way, don’t block my path," Lu Xiao added.

Ever since he got the phone last night, he had been extremely irritable.

Even though he knew these guards were just following orders, he just wanted to vent, to act recklessly just this once.
