Meng Tian looked at Xie Yuxin quietly. This composed man did not merely want to leave this place. Maybe everyone else's motive was to leave the Oracle Star, but for Xie Yuxin, perhaps his real reason was to discover the secret.
If Wang Zheng was here... he would probably do the same thing too.
After seeing the lower level of the Oracle Star, Meng Tian could probably guess where the military base of the Oracle Star was. That large fleet could not have appeared from nowhere. However, they had not managed to make any contact yet. Meng Tian had also regained her calmness. Although it looked dangerous, they actually stood a great chance now!
Suddenly, Meng Tian felt that she had not thought about Wang Zheng recently. This seemed to be a good thing.
Lear and Lou Fei were on their way back to Elite Academy X. For them, SIG was totally over. All the racket and the vanity. It was not exactly a loss to have reached the semifinals, but there was no longer any real value. The people only remembered the champion.
Lear, who had been looking out the window at the stars, suddenly said, "Luo Fei, our move has been a big step back."
"Boss, we are actually quite strong too, " said Luo Fei.
"Keke, I know you actually quite like Wang Zheng, Zhang Shan, and the rest. What's in the past is the past. I'll be ruthless next time, " said Lear faintly."You have to be clear about this. Don't do anything that is unnecessary."
Lou Fei's face twitched."Boss, I don't know if I should ask this..."
Lear looked at Luo Fei."Go ahead."
"Actually, we could be considered acquaintances with Wang Zheng and the rest. Why are we always keeping an eye on them?" Luo Fei could not understand. If Lear was considered small-minded, he did not appear as such yet.
Lear looked at Luo Fei."This question has been bothering you for quite a while, hasn't it? That's because Wang Zheng has taken all the paths that I wanted to. I have nowhere else to go."
A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth."From now on, we'll see who prevails. Let him enjoy his short-lived glory."
Luo Fei nodded. He could only nod. This was because... was this a self-fulfilling prophecy? He felt that he should comfort his boss. On further thought, it was indeed depressing. If there was no Wang Zheng, Lear would definitely be the one enjoying the glory now. Luo Fei had known Lear for a very long time. He had been preparing for this day.
In a royal manor on the outskirts of Aslan. This was Aina's manor. The normally quiet manor was very lively today.
"Man! This... table, these chairs, these tiles... Can we take one with us when we leave?" asked Zhang Shan loudly. Zhang Shan was also wearing a suit today. He looked rather prim and proper in it. This fellow was dashing around madly in his wheelchair. He could, in fact, stand up already, but in order to recover faster, it was better to be a little more discreet. So, it felt as if he was driving a small sports car and dashing around madly.
Lie Xin was going for the sexy style even in an evening gown, fully accentuating her excellent figure. Beside her was Jondi Lilick.
"Lie Xin, the fusion of the Lie Flame Technique and Heavenly Master Technique will probably amaze the whole world in a few years' time, " said Jondi Lilick with a smile. He was handsome to begin with. Being born with a silver spoon, and now in a suit, his aristocratic aura was even more apparent.
"Maybe we will have the chance to face each other. Are you going back to the academy after SIG?"
"No. This has been purely for SIG. I intended to take the championship. But I'm grateful that I'm still alive, all because Wang Zheng was merciful to me." Jondi Lilick was an open person. It was easy for people to get close to him."I'm planning to join the Milky Way Alliance Troops to gain some experience."
"Oh, I thought you would remain in Manalasuo."
"I'm looking for something different. I don't like staying at a place that has no challenges, " said Jondi Lilick laughingly."Initially, I thought you and Wang Zheng were a couple."
Said Jondi Lilick softly.
Lie Xin smiled alluringly. Also in a soft voice, she responded, "I wanted to seduce him but failed."
Both Achilles and Si Jiali were each holding a glass of red wine. They were more refined. For some people, a simple look and they would know that they could get along. At least they could have a conversation. Respect and dignity were earned by oneself, not given by others.
Everyone on Saruman Snake had proved this. Regardless of success or failure, they were always moving forward. This was true strength.
Snow Li, Ai Xiaolu, and Luo Er, on the other hand, were sitting on the side. The three ladies were all the introverted type, so it was not easy for them to befriend anyone. Although Luo Er was smiling, it was apparent that she was feeling a little repressed. This was because Ryan's situation was not looking good. The recent polls had fallen to only forty percent, not looking optimistic. But there was nothing they could do to help.
"Where did the two of them go? Don't tell me that they have gone to do that business in broad daylight!" said a rather annoyed Ai Xiaolu.
"What business?" asked Snow Li, a little puzzled.
Playfully, Luo Er suddenly touched Snow Li's breast."Make a guess."
All at once, Snow Li blushed."Rascals!"
"Geez! One can't tell that you are quite voluptuous." Luo Er was very beautiful, a characteristic of a person from Gemini. A lustful beauty. It was a picture that was as seductive as it gets.
Both Takumi and Vincent were somewhat reserved. They did not really like such occasions. They had long heard about the luxuries of the Aslan royal family. Today was an eyeopener for them. From a quick glance, the manor was indeed built with money. It was obvious that many of the antiques here were priceless. These cultural treasures were probably collected during their galactic voyages. The Princess' manor was like a small arts museum.
In the courtyard, Mu Zhen and Ai Ruifen were watching the stars... Ai Ruifen was sitting on Mu Zhen's shoulders. The romanticism of the Titan man...
Yan Xiaosu, Zhao Yiling, Ye Zisu, and the rest naturally had to be there. Yan Xiaosu was exceptionally lively and was scurrying around. This was not an easy opportunity to come by to make friends. He was a child from a poor family that had taken the helm at an early age. The development of the KO Group had not been easy.
Although Aslan had lost, Yuan Donger and company were present too. This demeanor was still necessary. Besides, Huiyin was the one who had invited them. This girl was so heartless.
Normally, Jasper and Gabre would be most lively on such occasions, wanting very much to show off. However, they were especially abnormal. They were on their best behavior. It could not be helped, because they had no grounds to be proud. In the past, they were lively showoffs because the people around them were not as good as them. But here, it was different. Looking at Yan Xiaosu, they were full of admiration. It was definitely at idol level. Brother Yan did not seem to have any cold feet, regardless of the occasion. He was really a pro.
Cold feet?
Yan Xiaosu couldn't care less. The truth was that Jasper and Gabre were too thin-skinned. There was an old Yan family teaching - if a person was shameless, he would be invincible. Being thick-skinned was the way of the king. This was a basic for any business man.
