1207 She Had Matured! She Isnt A Young Girl Anymore!
They went back to Veblens laboratory. Di Qi was still lying rigidly on the bed. He looked like a corpse waiting to be dissected.
The only difference was, he was wearing clothes. Normally, corpses would be naked.
Everyone gathered around Di Qi and looked at the poor man.
Wang Teng took out the Xuanyang Soul Restoring Pill and pried Di Qis mouth open. Then, he stabbedstuffed the pill in.
Everyone: ...
Olivia: ???
Brother Wang Teng, are you really friends?
Dont we look like friends? Wang Teng asked, sounding puzzled.
Olivia: ...
Seriously?
Looking at how rough you were, others might think you were trying to kill him.
Dont mind the details. If we were not friends, I wouldnt have spent so much effort to refine the Xuanyang Soul Restoring Pill and save him. Im a grandmaster alchemist. My time and labor are worth at least a few billion. Wang Teng sniggered.
You can explain it to him personally. I recorded the scene on my wristwatch, Olivia said slyly.
F**k! Wang Teng cursed unconsciously.
This girl was indeed sly. He got tricked.
Are you scared? Olivia smirked. Ill delete the video if you make 180 grandmaster-level pills for me.
Silence.
Everyone looked at Olivia in bewilderment. They could almost see the fox tail popping out behind her.
She was surprisingly ruthless.
108 grandmaster-level pills? Did she think they were sweets? How could she even say that number?
Why dont you be a robber instead? Wang Teng asked furiously.
Theres no one to rob from, Olivia replied in a seemingly naive tone.
How smart of you. Wang Teng rolled his eyes. Well, Im not going to bring you out again. Dont beg me.
Huh~ Olivia was stunned. She quickly hugged Wang Tengs elbow. Dont do that. Brother, I was wrong!
Moira raised her eyebrow, glancing at their point of contact involuntarily.
Wang Teng immediately felt something soft on his elbow.
WTF!
This girl is growing up well.
She has matured.
I cant treat her like a young girl anymore.
But he still wouldnt relent easily. She would wreak havoc in the future if he gave in.
Hmph, how can you be wrong? Its my fault. I made a mistake by trusting you. Wang Teng sighed and shook his head dejectedly.
I... Olivia didnt know what to say. She was caught off guard.
Oh no, what should I do if Brother Wang Teng doesnt bring me around in the future?
She didnt participate much in this mission, but being able to go on one was a great breakthrough. She found it exhilarating and fun.
She wouldnt have any more chances if Wang Teng ignored her.
Dont say anything. Lets cut ties here, Wang Teng glanced at her and said calmly.
Sob... No, Brother Wang Teng. Its my fault. I didnt take a video. I lied. I wont do it again. Sob, I was wrong. Tears welled up in Olivias eyes, and she burst out crying.
Wang Teng felt helpless.
This wasnt right.
He was the victim, but after she cried, he looked like the bad guy.
Everyone stared at Wang Teng strangely as if he was inhumane.
Why are you bullying a young girl? Seriously?
Wang Teng felt even more frustrated. They werent implicated, so they didnt care. They were bad guys too.
Stop crying. Im just playing with you, Wang Teng said helplessly.
Really? Olivias crying stopped, and her tears disappeared instantly. She asked, Can I follow you in the future?
Wang Teng froze, feeling that he got tricked again. He asked, Why do you want to follow me? Its dangerous.
Its fun! Olivia said.
Everyone: ...
This young girl was still a child.
How could she say that the defense planet was fun? Was she oblivious or naive?
Erm, they seemed to have the same meaning.
Everyone shook their heads. They felt lucky that this young girl didnt pester them. Who could deal with her?
Nonsense, Wang Teng scolded softly. This is a defense planet, not a place to play. Never mind, youll be brought back soon. Someone in your family will take care of you.
I dont want to go back, Olivia pouted and said unwillingly.
Thats not for you to decide. Wang Teng gloated.
Olivia blinked and stopped irritating Wang Teng. She was coming up with another plan.
As for Di Qi, some color returned to his face after consuming the pill.
The Xuanyang Soul Restoring Pill melted in his mouth.
This was a good function. Di Qi wouldnt be able to swallow the longan-sized spiritual dan in his state of unconsciousness.
Wang Teng, when will Di Qi wake up? General Cameron asked.
Based on the efficacy of my Xuanyang Soul Restoring Pill, two days. Wang Teng estimated.
Two days? Thats fast. General Cameron was startled. Looks like your alchemy mastery is extremely high. I should call you a grandmaster from now on.
Please dont. Im just a small soldier under you. Dont call me grandmaster. Its not the same system, so we dont have to care about it, Wang Teng replied in a hurry.
If Cameron changed the way he addressed him, their relationship would change too. They would turn from a superior and a subordinate to colleagues of the same rank. After all, grandmasters were the leader in their industry.
This wasnt what Wang Teng wanted.
He still wanted to enjoy the protection of General Cameron. An address was nothing. He didnt need it.
Silence.
No one knew what to say. They found Wang Teng extremely thick-skinned.
How could he say such words without turning red and putting himself in such a low position? Come on, shouldnt you have some face as a grandmaster?
General Cameron glanced at Wang Teng in surprise. This wasnt the reply he expected.
Are you sure? he asked.
Yes, extremely sure. Im just a small soldier under you. You can direct me around wherever you want. Just remember my military contributions. Wang Teng chuckled.
So this is what youre after. General Cameron was caught between laughter and tears. Alright, you will have your military contributions for your future missions. You wont be affected.
Cough, actually, military exploits are secondary. Most importantly, I want to contribute to the military, Wang Teng coughed and continued righteously.
Everyone: _
Hahaha, youre an interesting brat. Veblen burst out laughing.
He rarely saw someone as honest and unpretentious as him.
Grandmaster Speanburg was stunned at first, but he understood Wang Tengs intention after hearing their conversation. He smiled and kept quiet.
Grandmaster Wang Teng was a unique person. Other grandmasters chose to enjoy a good life in the Secondary Career Alliance. They wouldnt come to the military to suffer.
Of course, their lack of ability was also one of the reasons.
Wang Teng was different. Although he was a grandmaster, his martial arts talent was strong too. His achievements in this field might be higher.
It was understandable why he chose this path.
Lets disperse since everything has ended. Well wait for Di Qi to wake up before asking him what happened. General Cameron waved his hand and left immediately. He had many matters to deal with; he couldnt stay much longer.
Im going back too. Grandmaster Wang Teng, come and have some tea if youre free, Grandmaster Speanburg said.
I will. Wang Teng agreed. He loved talking to this grandmaster because he had a way with words.
Wang Teng wanted to leave too, but Veblen pulled him back.
Young lad, go and deal with the devil ovum now. The faster you get rid of it, the earlier I can study it.
Youre not allowing me to rest, Wang Teng said helplessly.
Why do you need to rest? Youre still young. Are you weak? Veblen glanced at him.
... Weak? Youre the one whos weak, Wang Teng replied angrily.
Hey, dont you know how to respect an elder?
No. Do you know how to dote on a junior?
Junior? You? Please dont be so shameless.
Im only 20 years old. Im not old like you. One of your feet is already in the coffin.
You... ah, Im angry!
Moira slapped her forehead as she looked at the two of them quarreling and walking away. She hurriedly caught up with them.
