Chapter 56

Super Seminary had already confirmed the time for the negotiations. Zhang Zheng felt it was time to make his preparations.

"Um, Miss Angel Yan..."

"Super Seminary will arrange a meeting with you tomorrow morning."

Even though Zhang Zheng had prepared himself, he found himself at a loss for words when the time came.

This was practically like asking someone to leave directly. Zhang Zheng considered himself an honest person, so he felt a bit awkward about it. But since things had come this far, Zhang Zheng could only bite the bullet and say it.

"Uh... that was quick."

Angel Yan felt a bit caught off guard.

This guy acted fast. I just mentioned negotiating with Super Seminary, and now you've set the date for tomorrow morning? Why not have them come tonight?

So, Angel Yan didn't quite know how to respond to Zhang Zheng for a moment.

"Don't say that. I'm just thinking you can finish your mission earlier this way."

"You can return home sooner, and I can bring Zhixin here sooner."

"Two birds with one stone, isn't it? Right, Azhui, Moi?"

Zhang Zheng thickened his face and added, trying to sound more convincing by bringing in Angel Zhui and Angel Moi.

"Well, dear 'God,' Azhui and I have been around for thousands of years, so staying with you for a few more days or a few less doesn't really make much of a difference to us."

Angel Moi was already fed up with Zhang Zheng's shamelessness. To think I admired him a little this morning—what a waste of my feelings. Angel Moi thought bitterly to herself.

"Exactly, exactly! God, you're too much."

Angel Zhui also supported Moi's view and joined the chorus against Zhang Zheng.

Hearing the three women, Zhang Zheng felt like he was the ultimate villain, the modern-day Chen Shimei.

Wait, I have nothing to do with them, right? Zhang Zheng realized this after the three returned to their rooms, feeling he had been played. All he could do was smile bitterly and shake his head, standing up from the couch to go back to his room.

...

"Queen Kaisa, Yan has something to report to you."

Back in her room, Angel Yan immediately connected with Kaisa. Though they joked around earlier, with negotiations really happening tomorrow, Angel Yan needed to understand Queen Kaisa's stance on Super Seminary.

"Yan? What's the matter?"

Kaisa's calm voice echoed in Angel Yan's mind, as if nothing in the world could make the Queen of Angels feel anxious or rushed.

This was what Angel Yan admired about Kaisa the most—no matter who or what she faced, Kaisa always remained composed and never showed the slightest sign of panic, earning everyone's respect.

"Queen, Super Seminary will be sending someone to negotiate with us tomorrow, and their representative will be the Light of the Sun from the Star of Lieyang."

"I'm reaching out to you now to understand your stance," Angel Yan said.

At first, Angel Yan didn't care much about this meeting.

But Zhang Zheng changed her perspective—his attitude mattered more to her than that of any other force on Earth.

After observing for a few days, Angel Yan realized Zhang Zheng genuinely had no intention of becoming the main god of Earth and was instead trying to push Ge Xiaolun and Liu Chuang into the spotlight. That's when she started to pay a bit more attention to Super Seminary.

"Proceed with normal communication. Yan, always remember, though we angels are powerful, we are not tyrants. If Earth truly refuses our help, we should respect their decision," Kaisa said, while also using this moment to teach Yan an important lesson. Angels can be strong and proud, but they must never allow themselves to think of dominating others, for that would go against justice.

"Understood, Queen Kaisa."

"Queen, Zhang Zheng hopes that we can return to Angel City as soon as possible. If we must station angels on Earth, he wishes for Zhixin to be the one to come."

After discussing official matters, Angel Yan immediately started to tattle to Kaisa, her tone revealing a bit of dissatisfaction with how Zhang Zheng ignored her beauty.

"Oh, looks like the kid is missing Zhixin," Kaisa teased when she heard Angel Yan's report, then started laughing.

"Hurry up and tell me, what did you do to make him so eager to send you back?" Kaisa asked curiously after her laughter subsided.

Kaisa believed she understood Zhang Zheng well, especially after watching the video that Angel Yan sent him a few days ago. Zhang Zheng might be indifferent to strangers, but he's incredibly soft-hearted towards friends, especially girls.

So now that Zhang Zheng was in such a hurry to send Yan and the others back, Kaisa couldn't believe nothing had happened.

"Well, Queen, something happened that might have been too much for him to handle," Angel Yan replied vaguely, trying to keep what happened with Angel Zhui hidden.

In Yan's view, it was just a joke from Zhui. Zhang Zheng was too shy, which is why things escalated. There was no need to inform Queen Kaisa.

"Alright, tell the kid I agree. You can return with Super Seminary's response tomorrow."

"And Zhixin should indeed go to Earth. If not, He Xi might really lose control."

Kaisa clearly had no intention of digging deeper after hearing Angel Yan's words. She just wanted to send Zhixin to Earth.

These past few days, He Xi had once again considered killing Zhang Zheng.

In fact, just today, Kaisa had to adjust the time Zhang Zheng and Zhixin could communicate.

And now, Zhang Zheng was kicking Yan and the others out of his house.

That was how Kaisa saw the situation, so she didn't press Angel Yan for details.

"Understood, Queen."

"Then, regarding Morgana, should Zhixin also investigate?"

Angel Yan was still concerned about Morgana, after all, she'd been tracking her for over a thousand years.

"Leave that to Zhixin," Kaisa replied calmly, her tone flat and unruffled.

"But Zhixin is so young, only 500 years old," Angel Yan said, worried about her friend's safety.

She and Zhixin were close friends, and she didn't want to see her get hurt.

"Haha, Yan, you've gotten dumber."

"Zhixin is already a third-generation god. Do you think Morgana could really harm her with Zhang Zheng around?"

Kaisa was finding the situation more and more amusing.

"Zhixin... has become a god?"

"When did this happen, Queen?"

This news hit Angel Yan hard. It wasn't jealousy, but rather the realization that someone younger than her had surpassed her, leaving her a bit shaken.

She was so caught up in this that she didn't even hear Kaisa's teasing words afterward.

"Um... you didn't know?"

"I thought Zhixin had already told you."

Kaisa was a bit speechless. These two were supposed to be close friends, yet Zhixin had become a god without Yan even knowing. Definitely a plastic friendship!

"Uh, Queen, Zhixin hasn't told us anything."

"The last time we talked, she only asked us to help take care of her 'God.'"

Angel Yan was also a bit flustered. What a great friend indeed!

So well-hidden.

"Alright, there's no need to dwell on Zhixin becoming a god."

"She achieved godhood thanks to Zhang Zheng's energy, advancing by coincidence."

Kaisa felt she needed to explain, or else her student might think she was playing favorites.

"Understood, Queen Kaisa."

"In that case, I will return to Angel City after meeting the Super Seminary representatives tomorrow."

After learning that Zhixin had become a god, Angel Yan felt less worried and decided to return to Angel City right after the meeting.

At the same time, Zhang Zheng's phone began to ring as well.
