Chapter 270: Goddess Ning Luo, Don’t Leave Me!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ning Luo’s heart palpitated.

The feeling of being seen through wasn’t pleasant. It was even a little stressful.

Fortunately, Lin Qiye wasn’t angry.

It made her relax a little.

“Thank you, Mr. Gu. The human race is lucky to have you.”

Lin Qiye smiled lightly. “Don’t be happy too early. I can guard the country’s fate, but you have to remember that if anyone dares to provoke me or collude with foreign enemies, no matter how high their status is, I’ll kill them. In front of me, my rules are the greatest!”

Lin Qiye said indifferently.

Ning Luo’s heart froze.

How arrogant!

Would the ones in the higher-ups have any thoughts?

However, Mr.Gu’s strength was too terrifying. Even if those people were dissatisfied, they would probably withdraw their claws and teeth.

Ning Luo nodded. “I will warn the higher-ups.”

“Mr. Gu, do you have any other requests?”

Lin Qiye shook his head. “I’ll fill you in later.”

Upon hearing that, knowing she had completed her task, Ning Luo smiled casually.

Then, she took out a military-style phone and handed it to Lin Qiye.

“This is the exclusive phone the higher-ups of the human alliance use. It has good confidentiality and complete functions. If there’s any emergency in the future, you can contact the higher-ups through it. In this way, you won’t be delayed by any procedures.”

Lin Qiye raised his eyebrows and took the phone.

The phone was pitch-black and ancient, like a work of art. It was obviously expensive.

“Mr. Gu, you can try to operate it. The internal system has been highly encrypted. The clearance level is the highest level, which is enough to see 99% of the confidential information. As for the rest, it requires the participation of many higher-ups to see it. If you want to understand that information, you’ll have to come to Yanjing City.”

Lin Qiye nodded slightly.

“Okay. Prepare two sets of the best Awakening materials and send them to the Emerald Lake Villa.”

Ning Luo was pleasantly surprised and quickly nodded. “Okay! Mr. Gu!”

“Okay.”

They finished the business, and Lin Qiye got up.

Ning Luo quickly opened the door and walked Lin Qiye out.

Xu Xiaoshuang was guarding outside the door.

“Ah, Mr. Gu, Ning… Ning Luo, are you done?”

His actions were restrained. It was as if he had returned to the age of seventeen.

Ning Luo glanced at him, and Xu Xiaoshuangwas immediately at a loss.

Oh no!

He seemed to have only washed his hair once. He didn’t even have time to comb his hair properly and came out in a hurry!

He didn’t even cover his bald head.

He really should have spent more time preparing!

Would Ning Luo see his conspicuous hairline?

Xu Xiaoshuang’s mind was filled with thoughts, but Ning Luo was expressionless.

She merely nodded lightly at the commander.

“Old mate, protect your city well. When you get promoted in the future, you must remember your original intention! Don’t disappoint your mission!”

Xu Xiaoshuang was speechless.

Why was it such a formalized language?

They hadn’t seen each other for ten years, but she spoke such cold words.

The Jiang City commander felt like his heart was being doused by cold ice.

His body was cold. It was as if he heard the sound of something breaking.

They had been deskmates for three years, but Ning Luo did not care about him.

Ten years of brooding over it were just his imagination.

Xu Xiaoshuang felt bitter in his heart and forced a smile on his face.

Back then, the letter Gu Shaoshangforged was too realistic.

Even though he already knew that Gu Shaoshang forged it, he still couldn’t help but harbor fantasies in his heart.

Unfortunately, everything turned into a bubble in the end.

The Goddess in his heart had never looked him in the eye.

She was still a Goddess. He was unworthy of her.

The lustful thoughts in his heart were ultimately an illusion.

“I… I will protect… Okay…”

He felt like a fishbone was stuck in his throat, and he could not say a complete sentence.

Even if he had a thousand words, he could only swallow them bitterly.

Ning Luo did not pay attention to Xu Xiaoshuang anymore. She turned to look at Lin Qiye and gave a polite smile.

“I’m busy and have to rush back to Yan Jing soon. Then, Mr. Gu, see you next time.”

Lin Qiye waved his hand expressionlessly.

Seeing his Goddess smile at Lin Qiye and Lin Qiye remaining unmoved, Xu Xiaoshuang deeply felt what it meant that the world was unfair.

His eyes flickered. Sometimes he clenched his fists, and sometimes he smiled bitterly.

His Goddess didn’t smile at him, but she smiled at Mr. Gu charmingly like a spring breeze.

At this moment, fresh blood dripped from the commander’s heart.

The bald part on his head seemed to have become exceptionally bald and dazzling.

The way he looked at Lin Qiye was so resentful as if he was looking at a Minotaur.

Lin Qiye felt the strange gaze and glanced at the Jiang City commander.

Then, he instantly vanished from the spot.

On the official road, Xu Xiaoshuang watched as Ning Luo slowly drove away.

He felt disappointed.

“Goodbye. When will we meet again?

“After so many years, I’m still that loser. I don’t dare to muster up the courage to say even a single word.

“The Goddess of my youth is still an untouchable Goddess… Sigh.

“When we meet again, can you not be in such a hurry and not fight so desperately on the battlefield? You have to be happy! You have to be happy! Okay?!”

Xu Xiaoshuang muttered to himself.

Out of the blue, he said something inexplicable.

Ning Luo could not hear a single word, but Xu Xiaoshuang said it heartbreakingly.

Lin Qiye watched from afar.

His expression couldn’t hold back. “Damn, he’s such a simp.”

…

Everything seemed settled.

In the Gu Family’s villa at Emerald Lake, Lin Qiye silently returned home.

He sat down to rest for a moment.

The Life Lantern Gem rang in his mind.

[Successfully defying heavens to change your fate: You are four years and three months old. You used your superb strength to kill the upper echelon’s mole! You shocked Country Hua.]

[You obtained 500,000 movement points. You now have 3,940,000 points.]

[You changed the structure of this world. The Empress Universe’s Heavenly Dao has escaped the erosion of the demons and Winged Wolves. The time for a Practitioner to reach adulthood has returned to normal.]

[You obtained a pair of the Fated Empress’s Yin Yang Harmony Jade Pendant. It can equalize the damage to both parties. If one person doesn’t die, the other will not die.]

“500,000 movement points? Hmm. Not bad.”

Lin Qiye smiled.

At this stage, his movementpoints had reached nearly 4,000,000.

It was equivalent to his confidence level! Even if he encountered a heaven-defying problem, he could cheat with the points!

Lin Qiye grinned and looked at the next reward – the Yin Yang Harmony Jade Pendant.

It could allow both parties to share the damage they suffered.

This treasure should be meant to protect the Empress.

“This is a good item. If I were to hang this pendant on the Empress, with my defense, an ordinary person wouldn’t be able to kill her.

“I am one step closer to completing my mission to save the Empress!”

Lin Qiye couldn’t help but laugh.

There was no doubt about it.

The Yin Yang Harmony Jade Pendant was comparable to a minor Immortal Technique.

With this thing, even if the Fated Empress had yet to mature and might encounter some danger, how many people in this world could hurt her as long as he was around?

The perfect prize!

Lin Qiye’s lips curled up into a smile.

After being targeted so many times, his time has finally come!

After that, a notification rang in his mind again.

[The Life Lantern Gem is guiding your life: When the Fated Empress was four years and four months old, her stepmother remarried. Her stepfather is a scumbag. He joined forces with her stepmother and caused her death.]

[Life Lantern Gem Notification: Your main responsibility for this trip is to protect the Empress. You need to find her! You must note that this is the last time the Empress will be reborn and the most fragile. Furthermore, she cannot be revived after her death.]

After hearing the contents of the warning, Lin Qiye was speechless.

Since they can’t target him, they’re starting to target the Empress.

However, compared to the previous disasters, the difficulty of this mission isn’t too high!
