Chapter 163: Chapter 151: Chu! Xiao! Feng!

Commander Lian shook his head gently, "To avoid unnecessary complications, it’s best not to show your face for a short while. I suggest you first focus on advancing your Martial Path Realm.

"You’re already at the peak of Foundation Building, and with the substantial military merits you’ve earned, why not return to school and break through to the Innate Realm before anything else.

"Once our warriors have assembled, you can come in whenever you want, and by then it’ll be too late for anyone to change their mind."

"I understand, then I’ll go out and lay low for a while."

Chu Feng thought about it, and it seemed indeed there was no need to stay here any longer.

He had accumulated a total of 630 Attribute Points, not counting the military merits. The wealth and Yan University Points he had saved up should be more than enough for him to break through to the Innate Realm a hundred times over.

During this fight, he had also realized his many shortcomings. It might be better to return and improve himself before coming back stronger.

Besides, he was starting to miss the fragrant and soft embrace of Ms. Xuerui.

He wondered where she was at the moment.

Commander Lian nodded, picked up a piece of paper from the desk and handed it to Chu Feng with a smile,

"The exit is still closed, but I’ve issued you a temporary pass. Just show it and you’ll be allowed through.

"You can leave whenever you want, and you might as well rest a bit longer.

"Oh, and if you have any suggestions about our troop’s combat effectiveness, feel free to share. We value the opinions of our comrades greatly."

Chu Feng knew this signaled the end of their conversation, rising to his feet to accept the pass, "You’re joking, what suggestions could I possibly have.

"Every warrior I fought alongside was fearless, ready to sacrifice their lives without a second thought to protect me.

"Well then, Commander Lian, I’ll take my leave now—I’m a bit tired and I’m missing home."

Being busy with the fight here had kept other thoughts at bay, but now the thought of Wang Xuerui made him somewhat impatient to leave.

"Sure, it’s up to you. Just remember to consider our troop!"

Commander Lian and a few others stood up to see Chu Feng out the door before sitting down again.

...

As the footsteps outside gradually faded, a young soldier at the end of the sofa couldn’t help but say,

"Commander, that kid had some problems with his combat endurance during the fight.

"Also, aren’t you going to ask about the Domain Fragment?"

Commander Lian glanced at him indifferently, "What’s the issue, did it prevent him from going into battle and making contributions?

"Isn’t he allowed to have some personal fortune?

"I’m not someone who tolerates dirt in my eyes, and that kid’s character is good; he isn’t secretive. If there was something promotable, he would have spoken up about it himself.

"What he doesn’t talk about, no one else has the right to ask.

"As for the Domain Fragment, let’s not talk about how I didn’t sense it on him, even if he took it, it is his own spoils of war.

"As long as it doesn’t end up back in the enemy’s hands, even if he feeds it to a dog, it’s his business!

"Comrade, your ideological awareness isn’t deep enough.

"Go back and write a report on self-examination and self-correction regarding ideological conduct, and bring it to me first thing tomorrow morning!"

The young soldier’s face immediately turned glum.

Great, I’m in for an all-nighter.

And I have to genuinely criticize and admit errors, no half-hearted effort will do, otherwise it wouldn’t do justice to the Commander’s personal instruction.

The elegant soldier chuckled in an attempt to smooth things over, "Commander, you’re right. In today’s world, which talent doesn’t have some special fortune?

"As long as he is willing to exert effort for the Human Race, he’s a good lad in our eyes.

"It’s just a pity he’s not at a higher Realm. If he could reach the Everlasting Realm, killing a host of Demon Masters or even Wang Liang would seriously cripple the Iron Chain Demon."

Commander Lian snorted with a laugh, "Your ideological awareness is questionable, too. Our Demon Extermination Army is to be left without people, expecting a savior to drop from the sky?

"Before we die off, we must never let a youngster stand in our place, and we can’t let him suffer a single injury!

"Having such a genius is a fortune bestowed by the heavens; it’s the common people who are the norm. To defeat the enemy, we must still rely on ourselves!

"Also, it would be a waste to throw someone like him on the front lines. Give him some time, and he could make a contribution a hundred times greater than this."

"You are right,"

Watching the elegant soldier also be criticized in public and ultimately let go with a mere warning, the young soldier became even more disheartened.

Why only punish me and not him, picking on the easy target, huh!

The ways of this world are too cruel.

Lian Shi Ping tapped on the table, "All right, let’s move on to the next agenda item.

"I’ve consulted with the Staff Department and they assess that the enemy’s recent foray was merely a probing attack; the bigger moves are still to come.

"Considering what those two Young Masters Yan said about losing a Domain Fragment, and moreover, one that is ’living’ and self-detaching, no wonder they’re going mad.

"The chances of an all-out war breaking out this time are very high!

"To actively prepare for a possible large-scale conflict, I will now announce the division of tasks.

"Old Wu, go and contact the experienced leaders in our warzone and request their support.

"The more support we get, the fewer of our warriors will die.

"Also, I’m a bit concerned that our troop numbers might not be enough to hold off the enemy. If we lose the entrance, the blame will be tremendous.

"Remember to drag several old ghosts into this. Sit in the office drinking tea, waiting for retirement? Wishful thinking—they’re all going to come here and hold the fort for me!"

"No problem, I’ll head to their offices and corner them right away,"

Lian Shi Ping nodded in satisfaction, "Colonel He, you go and issue the summoning order. Within three days, have all the warriors in the battalion return and stand by!"

"Yes!"

"..."

A rapid succession of orders burst forth from Lian Shi Ping’s mouth, invigorating everyone present in an instant.

The room was immediately permeated with a somber atmosphere.

...

...

Chu Feng returned to the first-floor lounge, opened the Black Dragon Military Bag, glanced at the instruction manual, and discovered it was a multifunctional backpack.

Not only could it serve multiple purposes in the wild, such as unfold into a sleeping bag and so on, but it was also woven from special materials allowing it to block attacks from below the Innate Realm.

What pleased him most was that the Black Dragon Backpack itself carried a unique significance; it looked great to carry around.

’Lian Shi Ping is really a good man; no wonder his warriors respect him so much. It’s a pity that my aspirations lie elsewhere, and I have no plans to stay in the Demon Realm for long.’

He shook his head, transferred his belongings into the Black Dragon Military Bag, hoisted it on his back, and strode off with a bounce.

...

"Little brother, take care on your way. I’ll be transferred out soon too, let’s keep in touch!"

Zhou Xian grasped Chu Feng’s hand, his voice tinged with reluctance.

Chu Feng patted his hand with a smile and said, "That’s good news. When big brother gets out, I’m going to treat you to a good meal!

"No need to see me off, we’ll meet again!"

After waving goodbye to Zhou Xian, Chu Feng, eager to get home, dove into the spatial gate shimmering with the image of Blue Star.

After a moment of dizzying whirls, his feet suddenly touched solid ground, and he appeared out of nowhere at the entrance.

He showed his temporary pass to the Demon Extermination Army soldiers on martial law, took a deep breath the moment he stepped out of the base.

Even though the air was severely polluted and he still wore a gas mask, there seemed to be a unique scent of Blue Star in the air that progressively soothed him with each breath.

"Ah, the feeling of home, the feeling of freedom! I... Who’s this!"

He had not yet fully expressed his inner emotions when he suddenly noticed a figure flashing beside him!

Barely had his Tang Sword cleared its scabbard when a cool little hand already grabbed his ear, twisted it hard, and then yanked it violently!

An excruciating pain nearly ripped through his earlobe, and a crisp yet seething female voice erupted beside his ear, making his body stiffen instantly:

"Chu! Feng! Little! Feng!"
