Chapter 689: Chapter 279: Can’t Be Happy at All_4

Anxiety surged through me, my hands moving so fast that sparks seemed to fly from the ancient silver coin.

I definitely had to go, the Dark Knight must reach the Icebound Continent, Austin never denied that. He worried that after their success, the three Knights of the Life Alliance would turn their backs and join forces to cut him down.

No need for joining forces, he couldn’t beat even one of them if they stood against him.

"That’s right, I indeed plan to communicate with the Moonlight Knight..."

Wayne raised an eyebrow. Austin’s reasoning was sound, as they were already in deep trouble, nothing would make the situation worse. Might as well go all out and secure the qualifications of the five God-chosen.

OCD was nagging—four out of five felt incomplete, making it uncomfortable even to sleep. No matter what, this trip I must get in touch with the Moonlight Knight.

"If we go, we must take Hefei and Veronica with us." Austin’s expression was grim, fearing another attack like the one in the alley.

Wayne nodded, it made sense.

He and Austin were going to the Icebound Continent. Regardless of the outcome, whether they returned or not, they had to take Hefei and Veronica with them.

"You go as the Dark Knight, keep your mask on the entire time and don’t reveal your true face. I’ll take care of the teacher and Veronica, and under the name of Saina, it’s easy to explain their presence since all three are Dragon Blood."

After discussing for a moment, they settled on several backup plans.

When Wayne left the study, he shot Megan an encouraging look.

The troublesome head of the household had been sent away, Aunt Mei, now’s your chance to shine, seize the opportunity during this trip!

Megan: (눈‸눈)

The young master’s gaze is getting weirder and weirder; I’ve told you, the Butler doesn’t understand.

Wayne left the main house and decisively headed toward the young lady’s villa, moving quickly. He didn’t even stop to apprehend Monica, who had slinked by.

In the past, it was Saina avoiding him; now, it was just the opposite—he was the one avoiding Saina.

Please, teacher’s teacher, keep a little calm, he’s just a kid.

The next morning, Wayne climbed out of bed, deeply aware of the importance of competition.

Saina’s arrival and her composed demeanor profoundly ignited Veronica’s sense of crisis, which led her to pin Wayne down and engage in all sorts of horseplay.

Saina was old enough to earn the nickname Old Witch, but she was genuinely beautiful—with a perfect figure, temperament, and appearance. Only Philomena could compete with her.

Veronica had never seen Philomena; in her mind, Saina was the most beautiful woman in the world.

Well, in terms of appearance.

Moreover, being older had its advantages—the wealth of a hundred years’ worth of gold mines, an inexhaustible resource. She could offer Wayne things Veronica couldn’t match even if she sold the Randao family estate.

Scary!

So weak and helpless!

This unprecedented crisis caused Veronica to be exceptionally gentle today; she didn’t kick Wayne out of bed but instead tenderly helped him button up his shirt.

Wayne was momentarily dazed, almost calling out Chris’s name.

"Veronica, you’re overthinking it, it’s just a normal cooperative relationship, nothing more," Wayne said with a smile.

"Shut up, do you think you understand Dragon Blood better than I do?" Veronica rolled her eyes; the implications behind Saina allowing herself to be ridden weren’t that simple.

It made too much sense!

Veronica was logical, and coming from the mouth of a spoiled Dragon Blood Girl, Wayne couldn’t argue. He explained that he had work and had to go out that day.

"Will she go out as well?"

"She probably won’t; you can keep an eye on her," Wayne said as he held the person in his arms, cooing for a while, vowing not to do anything to betray her.

Coming from Wayne’s mouth, that statement was almost completely incredible, spoken by a habitual offender, how could he have the nerve to say it.

Watching the black sedan slowly drive away, Veronica decisively picked up the phone and called both the Wayne Manor and the Sun Church hideout.

"No more sleeping; a formidable enemy is lurking. Come over quickly and lend a hand."

That day, three heads came together, with Vili strategizing and drafting a battle plan.

"Don’t panic, sister, go and scout out the enemy situation, see how pretty she can be. I suspect Veronica is overestimating the situation," Vili said, waving her hand and summoning her number one beauty from under her command.

Among the trio of besties, Vili’s legs weren’t long enough, Veronica’s chest wasn’t big enough, only Crist had fully blossomed branches, her figure was the most wow.

"Quickly go and quickly return, I want to see just how pretty that old witch could be!"

That same day, Saina stood at the window, looking down loftily upon the three heads below.

The great beauty’s lips curled into a smirk, radiating scorn and elegance.

Fur standing on end! x3

In the West District, at the Secret Base Laboratory.

Wayne took the white lab coat from Mona and said to Juno, who was reading a magazine, "Situation has changed, I have to go save the world, so your evolution will have to be postponed."

"Postponed again? How long has it been?"

Setting down her magazine, Juno said, "I am a princess of a country, after all. Even if I’ve concealed my identity, I can’t disappear for too long. Mother will definitely send people to investigate. Even if I phone home to cover for you, they’ll think I’ve been coerced by kidnappers."

Juno sighed. If worst came to worst, she would just have to undergo evolution. She was very fond of angels.

"Boss, what kind of crisis has occurred this time, is it the devil?" asked Mona.

"It’s not the devil, it’s a kin of an ancient god, not from the God-chosen Continent, the situation is very complicated, and I can’t take you with me," Wayne said, seeing the disappointment on Mona’s face and patting her on the bum while telepathically transmitting, "Do as you wish when I return."

Mona had heard this promise many times before and was already numb to it.

"This time it’s for real!"

Wayne once again fed Mona the promise, then said to Juno, "Come with me, I promise to preserve your will, it’s my word to you, and I will never go back on it."

"Now, I can’t grant you the evolution to become an angel, but I can show you what angels are. Open your eyes wide and see clearly. If you want it, just cooperate during this time."

Filled with anticipation, Juno looked on, as did Mona, both with a pilgrim’s heart. In the magical barrier space of the laboratory, they witnessed the appearance of a sacred angel descending to the mortal realm.

One eye!

Six wings!

Golden bands of the Golden Rule swirling around...

Moving chaotically yet orderly...

The exclusive breath of Heaven unleashing holy radiance!
