Chapter 151: Chapter 99: "He was too noisy, so I killed him" (Seeking votes at the beginning of the month, thank you for your support!)_2

Behind him, Li Ming held an ion sword, but did not activate its ion state, instead using the metallic body of the sword to strike, looking at Youke lying on the ground, he shook his head, "Too much talk."

With the enhancement of four D-grade boots, Youke couldn’t even see his figure, and with one strike, Youke was knocked unconscious.

...

"...are you threatening me? Threatening the teacher?" In Luo Chuan’s office, his face looked very displeased, while Sain smiled lightly, "It’s a misunderstanding."

"I’m simply providing Professor Wu with an option, Princess Asmara is about to marry, her shelter is unstable, and Professor Wu, being a smart man, should know how to choose."

"Prince Baijiang wants only what Professor Wu initially brought out from the relics, and as long as Professor Wu is willing to give it up, the Sela Civilization will immediately stop all measures."

Luo Chuan’s brows tightened, "Stop all measures? You’ve betrayed your own civilization to become a lackey for Prince Baijiang."

"You should know the price the Sela Civilization paid for this day."

Sain laughed, "It is precisely for the Sela Civilization, their vision is too short-sighted, such disputes will not strengthen the Sela Civilization, but will only prolong hatred."

Luo Chuan retorted, "If Prince Baijiang wants it so badly, why doesn’t he come and take it himself?"

"Because the Prince still wants to give Professor Wu another chance, he admires Professor Wu very much," Sain shrugged.

"Hah," Luo Chuan sneered, clearly disbelieving, and shook his head, "I cannot make decisions for the teacher."

"Of course, I am just a messenger," Sain’s face always wore a smile:

"However, I must say one more thing, if you’re not careful about choosing sides, you might end up with no place to bury."

Luo Chuan’s expression remained calm.

"Well, I should leave now," Sain stood up, "I hope the two of them have already become friends."

With a confident smile, Luo Chuan’s expression was stern.

The two of them walked out of the office one after the other, just in time to see at the other end of the corridor, Li Ming dragging a person by the right leg across the floor.

The person lay on the ground, motionless, like a corpse.

Looking at the clothing, that was Youke!?

Sain was stunned on the spot, Luo Chuan’s expression slightly changed, a hand quickly resting on Sain’s shoulder.

"Lord Sain, Brother Luo," Li Ming saw the two, casually dropped Youke’s leg on the ground, and came forward to greet.

Sain was firmly restrained on the spot by Luo Chuan, his expression shifting, forcibly maintaining composure, looking at the distant Youke, whose life or death was unknown, he asked gravely, "What happened to Lord Youke?"

"You mean him," Li Ming frowned slightly, "He talked too much, so I killed him."

Sain was initially confused, his confident expression disappeared, a sense of absurdity rose within him, followed by disbelief, mixed with panic and unease.

The casual expression finally vanished, his eyes rapidly bloodshot, surrounded by a faint purple flame, he roared fiercely, "You’re seeking death!"

Luo Chuan was also stunned, killed Youke?

But since Youke was not his man, his reaction was much calmer.

"Uh, were you serious?" Seeing Sain’s reaction, Li Ming frowned.

The initially furious Sain, upon hearing this, paused, "What do you mean?"

"I was joking, he’s not dead, he was just stripped of the gene seed," Li Ming explained.

Sain was dumbfounded, you call this human speech!?

But this time, he wasn’t so easily fooled, squeezing out a few words from his throat, "What exactly happened to him."

Luo Chuan was speechless, "Now is not the time for jokes."

"He’s fine, just knocked unconscious," Li Ming sighed, muttering, "Why does no one have a sense of humor nowadays."

Sain, whose emotions gradually calmed down, upon hearing this last remark, almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. He was no longer as nonchalant as before.

His reaction shouldn’t have been so intense, but now Blue Star was in conflict with the Sela Civilization.

Normally, no one would dare to lay hands on Youke, so seeing Youke being dragged by Li Ming gave him a bad premonition, and he momentarily lost his composure.

Luo Chuan and Sain quickly went to Youke’s side, Sain carefully checked, and after ensuring that there was no problem with Youke, he finally took a deep breath.

When he got up, it was a bit awkward. Sain wanted to rage as Youke had been knocked out, but could his anger exceed what it had been moments earlier?

He hadn’t let it out before, so it was somewhat forced now.

But swallowing this insult silently only added to his frustration. The good mood he had from suppressing Luo Chuan instantly vanished.

With a mockingly reproachful smile, Luo Chuan chided, "Li Ming, what exactly happened? Youke is a guest after all. How could you let him get hurt?"

Li Ming explained, "It’s not my fault; he insisted on comparing who had the harder back of the head, and I couldn’t beat him."

Sain knew that continuing the topic would only humiliate him further. He lifted Youke, skipped the formalities, and left with a cold face.

...

In the car, Youke gradually woke up, feeling a sharp pain in the back of his head, then suddenly exclaimed, "Li Ming!"

"We have already left," Sain said emotionlessly.

Only then did Youke realize what had happened. He looked around and noticed Sain’s dark expression. Ashamed, he whispered, "I’m sorry, Lord Sain."

"What happened? Who attacked you?" Sain asked, frowning.

"I don’t know; I didn’t see it coming," Sain said hesitantly. "It seemed to be... Li Ming?"

"Impossible!" Sain decisively shook his head, "He couldn’t have caught you off guard; it must have been someone else in the laboratory."

"The men under Wu Yanqing’s command are all bold,"

Hearing this, Youke couldn’t help but nod. If it were truly Li Ming, he couldn’t accept it. Sain’s explanation made sense.

It was likely someone else.

"Should we reproach them, ask Blue Star for an explanation?" Youke inquired.

"It’s useless, in this situation we won’t get any results," Sain shook his head, then asked carelessly, "How did you find interacting with that Li Ming? Did you notice anything unusual about him?"

"Unusual?" Youke pondered, "He seemed rather gloomy, and he appeared to have a deep interest in mechanical engineering. His room was filled with books, all showing signs of being read."

"The tools also showed clear signs of use; his eyes held a genuine longing when he tinkered with those things. He really loves it."

Gloomy? Fond of mechanics? Sain fell silent.

"Did you manage to do what I asked?" Sain then asked.

"Uh..." Youke subconsciously touched his pocket, pulled out a slender metal syringe, and shook his head, "I didn’t find the chance to take his blood."

Sain frowned but said nothing, only adding, "There will be other opportunities."

...

"Who knocked him out?"

As Luo Chuan and Li Ming walked down the corridor, Luo Chuan casually asked.

"I did," Li Ming admitted openly, "The kid was probing and I got tired of listening to him."

"Hmm, they came with ill intentions." Luo Chuan was amazed internally. Youke had received top-notch training and yet couldn’t match Li Ming.

Moreover, when Luo Chuan had examined Youke, he clearly noticed that the latter had shown no signs of resistance.

However, considering Li Ming’s previously demonstrated shocking speed, it somehow made sense.

More than just ill intentions, Li Ming’s eyes flickered, thinking of the metal syringe in Youke’s pocket.

He couldn’t understand why Youke would carry such a thing without a special intent.

His or his backers wanted to verify something. Even if Old Wu’s acceptance of my validity is understandable, some still doubted it.

But they were restraining themselves, daring only to act covertly. Old Wu certainly couldn’t make the people of the Sela Civilization so wary; there had to be other reasons holding them back.

"Princess Asmara of the Yitelan Civilization is getting married," Luo Chuan suddenly mentioned.

Li Ming was puzzled, Princess Asmara? Who?

"The leading princess of the Yitelan Civilization," Luo Chuan continued as they walked, "Once, Princess Asmara, the teacher, the dean, and others, met in the interstellar and formed an exploration team."
