"What? They are all dead?"
After turning down Jiang Guohao's invitation for them to stay for lunch, Ye Xingchen and Jiang Shang returned to their own home as noon approached. Yun Che and the others might have already returned and when they got free time in the afternoon, they directly entered the Space for cultivation. They didn't really care about what others might think of Yun Che eliminating the Rogue Squad in Section C because they were used to such opinions but when they left the Space the next morning learning that over a hundred people of the Rogue Squad were all killed, Yun Che and the others were enormously shocked.
"Well, now everyone will assume that we did it."
Chu Haoling shrugged his shoulders, and grabbed a steamed meat bun and took a bite. Xing Feng put down his chopsticks and glanced at him, "Why do you think grandpa informed us early in the morning?"
If he was not suspicious of them, how would he first notify them, a superfunction squad that newly arrived at the base, of such a matter? Even if he was the third young master of the Xing Family, and they had a fight with the Rogue Squad only the day before, his grandpa shouldn't have considered them as the suspect so early, unless he was testing them.
"Anyone who had a brain will suspect us, alright?"
Zhou Zeyu said as he ate. He didn't really care, actually, as they were not the culprit. Whoever wanted to suspect them could feel free to. And if they were pissed off, they didn't mind taking out one more squad or two.
"Haha…this is perfect, at least in the future there will be no one to provoke us, and no one to get on our way to do missions."
As Yun Cheng talked, everyone at the table cracked a smile. This was not the first time for them to be the villain. As long as they were used to it, it was quite a nice feeling, better than to be the good guy, at least they were not required to maintain a fake image and they could do whatever they wanted and kill whoever dared to ask for trouble. They could have an easy and pressure free live.
"Gu, can you help inquire about the specific details of the Rogue Squad being exterminated?"
After the meal, when they moved to the living room, Yun Che seriously requested. Although he was like everyone else and didn't mind people fearing them, that didn't mean he would allow others to deliberately set a trap for them and let them take the blame. The death of the Rogue Squad was too coincidentally, and it was clearly targeted at them. Just like Zhou Zeyu said, anyone who had a brain would immediately think that they were the murderer.
"No problem, this is simple. And about the Thunderbolt Squad you asked me to check out yesterday, I've already sent the information to you."
Even if he did not explain, Gu Mingxuan understood what he meant because he was thinking about the same. If they were to be a scapegoat for a justified reason, they would go with it. However, for such a malevolent accusation, they'd better be cautious.
"Already?"
He thought it would take them days, after all, most of Chaoyang's manpower had been dispatched to the southwest, and only two small squads remained in the capital.
Yun Che took out his cell phone and opened his mailbox. An email signed Thunderbolt was on the top. He clicked the email gently with his finger and fount that it recorded all the things of Thunderbolt Squad in detail, including the identity of some members before the doomsday. However, Yun Che found it very strange that there was a total of five level-6 superfunction possessors in Thunderbolt Squad, with both of their captain and vice captain being level 6 as well as dual-system superfunction possessor of gold and space and of thunder and velocity and countless level-5 superfunction possessors. So why did they only rank second in Section C? Was the first-ranked Imperial Squad that strong?
"Xing Le, a level-5 superfunction possessor of fire and strength, has your surname. She's not one of your families, is she?
After reading the information on Thunderbolt Squad, Yun Che flipped through the simple and general information from the day before, which showed that the first ranked team in Section C was the Imperial Squad whose captain was a woman with the surname Xing. Yun Che was just joking, and he didn't expect that Xing Feng would crack a smile, even Gu Mingxuan and the others couldn't help but placed their hand on their forehead.
"What does Le want to do? Does she want to fight the boss?"
The night before they had read through too much information, so they only knew that the first-ranked squad in Section C was the Imperial Squad but did not notice the captain's name. As Yun Che said, all people of Chaoyang were speechless while Chu Haoling shouted blusteringly with his tablet in his hand. Seeing that Yun Che was more puzzled, Xing Feng explained helplessly, "She is my sister. I am the third child of the family, and I have an elder brother and sister. "
In the past, the siblings had quite a good relationship, after all, they were about the same age. But since what happened that time, he and his elder brother fell out and he didn't have contact much with his sister. Meanwhile, he could also see that his brother and sister had changed a lot since then. It could be considered a tacit agreement between them. Before the doomsday they never contacted each other in private, and would only send group messages wishing each other New Year.
"Uh… well, all your families are…"
The corner of Yun Che's mouth twitched, and he didn't know what to comment so he could only give him a thumbs up. Climbing to the top spot so easily, she was a badass just like her brother.
"I reckon she's pissing my dad off greatly."
Hooking the corner of his lips, Xing Feng did not conceal how pleased he was about this. Maybe others didn't know about it but he was clear that his father treasured his sister as a princess of the Xing Family and hoped that she would be an obedient sweetheart just like a princess. But now the princess had grown up to be a queen, it would be a miracle that he was not furious.
"That said, should you draw a family tree of the Xing Family for me? If I accidentally kill your one of your family one day, then I'll be making a huge mistake."
He did not ask because he knew that Xing Feng would definitely take the initiative to tell him when the time was right, but now that they were in the capital, at least he should tell him who were in the Xing Family, right? Although even if he knew about it, if the people of the Xing Family dare to give him a hard time, he would kick their ass just the same.
"Well, I'll tell you later."
"Che, there's a man named Guo Shaolong outside looking for you."
The voice of Xing Feng and Yun Yao sounded almost at the same time. As the words fell, Guo Shaolong had leisurely entered uninvited. Xing Feng's face suddenly darkened, his eyes glaring at the visitor sharply and coldly, but Yun Che calmly looked at him with a smile.
"Yo!"
Ignoring Xing Feng's angry handsome face, Fei Ye raised the corner of his mouth to display a wicked smile, raising his hand to greet Yun Che naturally.
"You still remember to come. Feel free to sit down. Why did you suddenly leave without saying goodbye yesterday?"
With a high-five, Yun Che casually pointed to the empty sofa. Fei Ye did not take himself as a guest, and he naturally walked over to sit down, "Didn't I tell you I had something to attend to. Why? Do you miss me?"
After the words fell, the temperature of the entire living room suddenly dropped. The corners of the mouth of Zhou Zeyu and others twitched and they moved further away in tacit understanding. Where did this man come from? Did he see that Xing Feng's superfunction was surging?
"Yeah, I was wondering how you haven't got yourself killed."
How could Yun Che not notice the change in Xing Feng's mood? In the meantime, he rolled his eyes at Fei Ye speechlessly. He could bet that Fei Ye did it on purpose.
"It'll be difficult for me to get myself killed but it'll be easy to get some others killed."
Sitting cross-legged and leaning back on the sofa, Fei Ye put one arm on the sofa and rested his head on the arm, intentionally glancing at Xing Feng, who was at the edge of an outbreak. His face and eyes were full of blatant evil. It was quite an ordinary face, but his temperament seemed to have made them more three-dimensional and handsome. It turned out that temperament was really more important than looks.
"Fei Ye!"
Xing Feng almost squeezed out these simple two words from his mouth and everyone could notice the hostility in his tone.
"Fei Ye? He's the killer from Bi'an who kidnapped you?"
Hearing this name, Gu Mingxuan frowned. Apart from Yun Cheng and Leng Yehan, the others also looked puzzled and were on guard. They could imagine how strong Fei Ye was as he managed to trick Yun Che and held him prisoner for so long. No one dared to underestimate him.
"Well, but he's my friend now."
It was impossible to hide this, and Yun Che didn't try to hide it. Hearing him say the word friend, Fei Ye was untraceably stunned for a few seconds, but no one noticed. Soon he was back to his evil self again, making it impossible for others to see through him easily.
"Friend?"
Looking at his brother and then at Fei Ye, Yun Yao frowned disapprovingly. This was the man who tried to kill him.
"Haha…I never make friends depending on whether he is good or bad. As long as he is someone I approve, I don't mind if he's a pervert or not. Sis, Fei Ye is fine, don't worry. I know what I am doing."
He immediately saw through what his sister was thinking, and Yun Che didn't avoid it but said it right in front of Fei Ye.
"Well, you're not taunting me, are you?"
Without waiting for Yun Yao's reaction, Fei Ye asked jokingly, and Yun Che threw him an approving smile, "You know what I mean? Awesome!"
Having said that, Yun Che did not forget to give him a thumbs up.
"It seems that you have the worst impression on me. Do you think I should do something to correct it?"
Fei Ye found conversing with Yun Che a lot fun, and basically every time he simply ignored the presence of Xing Feng.
"No need. I think the word pervert is definitely the highest praise for you, right, Feng?"
However, Yun Che would not ignore his beloved Xing Feng. After finishing his words, he deliberately asked for Xing Feng's opinion, implicitly telling him that he really had no other feelings for Fei Ye, and there was no need for jealousy.
"I personally prefer him to disappear in front of us."
Wrapping his arm around Yun Che's waist in a particularly possessive way, Xing Feng's eyes were fierce as he swept towards Fei Ye. He always believed in his intuition, and this time, his intuition told him that Fei Ye's feelings for Che was definitely not as simple as that for an ordinary friend, although Che had repeatedly told him that he didn't have any feelings for Fei Ye other than that of a friend, Fei Ye was clearly coveting his love, so how could he be indifferent.
"Is that so? Then you'll be disappointed. I'm planning to stay here for a while."
Raising his eyebrows, Fei Ye did not care at all about his fierce glare, and he was extremely relaxed and comfortable.
"No way."
Xing Feng opposed without a second thought.
"Did I ask for your opinion? The third young master of the Xing Family could certainly tell that I've made up my mind."
"You can try."
"Tch. Do you want a fight? Fine, I've been bored."
"Boom…"
Neither of the two would back down. Xing Feng directly generated a black mist, and Fei Ye raised his hand. The greenish purple poison gas and the black mist, both of which were extremely corrosive, instantly collided with a sizzle, which sounded particularly horrendous. Yun Yao, Wang Suhua and the other women were anxious, and they did not understand how they got into a fight so suddenly.
"Sizzle…"
"Fuck…"
Some of the black and greenish purple mist fell on the coffee table, instantly corroding the marble surface of the table, making several pitted holes. Zhou Zeyu and the others cursed in low voice and instantly jumped farther away. At that time, only Yun Che, Xing Feng, Fei Ye, Yun Cheng and Leng Yehan were still sitting at the center of the living room.
