"Lingtian, come join us," Fang Huasheng said with a radiant smile, slowing down his speech. "Grandpa, are you trying to make it difficult for Xia Liu?" Fang Fei panicked. She could tell from her grandfather's words that to take Xia Liu home, he would have to pass his test. If it's two torpedoes again, Xia Liu might be done for. Xia Liu, despite being full of doubts, still followed Fang Huasheng into the hall. How should I put it? Right now, the old man definitely calls the shots in the Fang Family. If I can't get through to him, there's absolutely no way I'll be able to take Fang Fei away. If I were to forcibly take her away, this old man could send a few Spearhead warriors after us at any time, then how could my peaceful life remain peaceful? Following Fang Huasheng into the hall were Fang Fei and Lin Yazhi, as well as Ouyang Lingtian. The hall had already been cleaned up. The Spearhead members who had cleaned the hall were all terrified; they had never seen such a purgatorial scene. At the scene, not a single body was left intact. Either their chests were shattered, or their throats were pierced through. Even if they recalled it several years later, they would still feel their hearts pounding. "Xia Liu! Are you all right?" Just as Xia Liu entered the hall, Uncle Fu, who was wrapped in bandages from head to toe, greeted him from his chair. "Uncle Fu, you don't have to worry about me. Just focus on healing. You should be able to recover in half a month," Xia Liu replied with a nonchalant smile. "I'm really grateful to you. If you hadn't arrived in time, the people on the ship might have..." Noticing Fang Huasheng, Uncle Fu immediately began to thank him excitedly. "Old Fu, you just focus on your recovery. I've heard all about what happened. Good on you; even though you're retired, you are still my pride and the pride of the Spearhead Troop!" "Heh, it's what I should do. But when I woke up just now and took a look at the scene, it seems that the Spearhead warriors nowadays are a bit... well..." Uncle Fu laughed. He hadn't wanted to mention it, but after seeing the hair-raising massacre, he decided to speak up. Hearing Uncle Fu say this, Lin Yazhi and Fang Fei looked at Xia Liu. This wasn't the Spearhead Troop's doing; it was clearly Xia Liu's handiwork. "Uncle Fu, you might not be aware, but all of this was done by the Nether Emperor!" Sensing the barbs in Uncle Fu's words, Ouyang Lingtian decided to rat out Xia Liu. "Nether Emperor!" Upon hearing this title, Uncle Fu trembled, even though he was injured. As a retired King of Soldiers from the Spearhead Troop, he was well-informed about the current situation in various countries. The Nether Emperor was the nightmare of countless people; it was said that wherever the Nether Emperor went, it was like purgatory, where not even a blade of grass would grow. "This is crazy! It was the Nether Emperor! Where did he go in the end?" Uncle Fu asked weakly, worried that speaking too loudly might be overheard by the Nether Emperor. "Uncle Fu, don't believe the rumors out there. The Nether Emperor is actually very kind, and he just saved everyone a moment ago," Lin Yazhi said with a beaming smile. "That's right, and the Nether Emperor is very kind-hearted and honest too. If those pirates hadn't kidnapped everyone, he definitely wouldn't have taken action," Fang Fei chimed in after Lin Yazhi. "Was the Nether Emperor on the ship from the start?" Uncle Fu was astonished. Why would Lin Yazhi and Fang Fei speak so highly of the Nether Emperor? That just didn't seem likely. "Uncle Fu, you should rest up. Don't get too emotional, or you might aggravate your wounds. I just removed the bullets from you; I didn't do any other treatment," Xia Liu said. "Thank you for your concern, Xia Liu." "Uncle Fu, you wanted to know who the Nether Emperor is, right? I'll tell you—it's Xia Liu! He is the Nether Emperor, the Mercenary King who just slaughtered those pirates!" Watching the two of them laugh and joke around, Ouyang Lingtian seized the opportunity to immediately announce Xia Liu's identity! Huh? Uncle Fu's pupils contracted sharply; what had he just heard! The Nether Emperor is Xia Liu! Xia Liu is the Nether Emperor! Uncle Fu couldn't believe it; he stared at Xia Liu, unable to reconcile the man before him with the terrifying figure of the Nether Emperor from the rumors, no matter from which angle he looked at him. "Xia Liu, is this true?" Uncle Fu asked feebly. "Hehe, it's true." Seeing Xia Liu's amused admission, Uncle Fu fell silent. Ouyang Lingtian instantly grinned stealthily; Uncle Fu and Xia Liu hadn't been on good terms before, and he guessed things were about to become awkward. After some silence, Uncle Fu's face suddenly burst into a brilliant smile, excitedly saying, "Haha! I knew it; I said you couldn't be an ordinary person. No wonder you dared to come to Liuhai City alone; so you were actually hiding such a powerful identity." Seeing Uncle Fu's reaction, everyone nearly stumbled and fell over. Especially Ouyang Lingtian; he had thought that once Uncle Fu knew Xia Liu's identity, he would become fearful and distance himself from him. But instead, he was admiring him! Your next chapter awaits on My Virtual Library Empire "Hehe, Uncle Fu, don't say that; without your help, I wouldn't have been able to meet Sister Fang." Xia Liu smiled brightly; sure enough, Uncle Fu's perspective was different from others'. "Old Fu, Xia Liu and I have some things to discuss. You go and have a good rest first." "Hehe, I'll listen to Chief Fang." The Spearhead Warriors present then left the scene, and Lin Yazhi and Fang Fei went upstairs to chat with Uncle Fu. The spacious hall was left with only Ouyang Lingtian, Xia Liu, Fang Huasheng, and Yi Feng. Gazing at Xia Liu's calm face, Yi Feng's scalp tingled, and he didn't dare to meet his gaze. "Yi Feng, don't be so stoic. We're all friends here. I admit I've done some wrong things in the past, and you've launched two torpedoes at me; we should be even now, right?" "Er, we're even," Yi Feng replied in surprise, quickly regaining his composure. "Hehe, it's nice that you two could reconcile. Yi Feng, show them the documents," said Fang Huasheng, with kindly crinkled eyes. Ever since he was 'handled' by Xia Liu, Yi Feng had changed a lot; in a sense, Xia Liu was his benefactor. Unfortunately, Xia Liu's methods were terrifying, or else Yi Feng wouldn't remember it for so long. Following Fang Huasheng's command, Yi Feng slowly opened the document bag he was holding and handed two pieces of paper to Ouyang Lingtian and Xia Liu. "What is this?" Taking the papers without looking at the content, Xia Liu hastily asked. "This is a 5S level top-secret mission!" After scanning the papers briefly, Ouyang Lingtian burst out in astonishment. "5S level... what does that represent?" "5S level represents the highest-tier mission in Huaxia, such missions almost never occur because it signifies a one-way trip!" Ouyang Lingtian's hands shook as he held the documents. A soldier's duty is to contribute to the country, and to secure its safety! If one could take on a 5S level mission, it's not just an honor but also a sign of trust. Every warrior dreams of the day they are assigned such a level of task, as it would be a test, a recognition of their worth! "Old man, you're being a bit unfair, handing me the documents; you want me to do this task for you, but it's a one-way mission..."
