Next was Kexiao's apprehension of the Blazing Legion, a corps that had made a name for itself in one fell swoop within Alpha, having driven the Empire's corps out and established significant military accomplishments, thereby demonstrating their ferocious combat ability. It's said that a snake can't move without its head and a bird can't fly without its head, which is precisely why he wanted to eradicate himself from this world first.
As for the final problem, it includes both of these aspects. If Kexiao merely did this out of convenience, it would prove troublesome, and surely that apostle isn't so dim-witted as to not know how to speak.
In fact, she is very eloquent. Kexiao had received Sadra's response through Heavenly Communication just as the assassination attempt failed. He didn't ask any unnecessary questions, only whether the three apostles completed their task resulting in the disheartening news that only one survivor returned.
So two died and one was severely injured, huh? Kexiao laughed silently upon receiving the news...
Dead means dead, alive means alive, what difference does injuring one person make? With today's technology, as long as there is no severe brain damage, any disease could potentially be cured. However, this lovely girl had fled with severe injuries. Do they know who Feng Yi is? He is a celebrated gentleman and special envoy who served as a legendary veteran on the battlefield. Either Sadra killed Feng Yi to complete the mission - as hard as it is to believe - or she was killed by Feng Yi's team. Yet, what amused Kexiao was the idea that Feng Yi would even give a measly Sadra member a chance to escape while injured -- aren't these people underestimating Feng Yi?
"Kexiao, what are you laughing about..."
Jiu Ling, covered in sweat, cautiously entered the room. She preferred to be in the Gravity Room or doing something else ever since Black Peak died, which improved her more than ever before.
Perhaps Jiu Ling's steps were too slight for Kexiao to notice. Only when he saw her did he shrug his shoulders in resignation, "Hehe, just a foolish fly. Besides this, how is your injury healing?"
"It's getting better. Actually, I should thank you for your support."
Kexiao turned away from her and said, "The person you should be thanking isn't me, but Black Peak, or perhaps your nemesis, the Revenge Shadow Rider, who gave you motivation."
Hearing the name 'Revenge Shadow Rider' made Jiu Ling tremble slightly. It seemed to arouse some negative emotions in her... the Revenge Shadow Rider, a name she would never forget. It was he who killed Black Peak.
"You're still very weak. Go back and rest. Don't worry about the front lines. And definitely, don't worry about those useless people. I believe you'll surpass any opponent in the future."
"Kexiao, thank you." Jiu Ling knew Kexiao was talking about the Revenge Shadow Rider. She quietly returned to her room alone, determined to become stronger, stronger, and even stronger...
Only when Jiu Ling's presence had completely vanished did a figure emerge from the shadows, the features beneath his pitch-black cloak hidden from view.
"You saw everything."
"Yes... I did..." The low voice from beneath the cloak responded, pausing after every word.
Kexiao slowly turned around. "It was the only choice to be made. Only you can make her stand up again, and only she can make you..." Kexiao left his sentence unfinished, adding, "All I know is that your connection isn't as simple as it seems on the surface."
"Yes."
Kexiao gave a deep sigh, "Keep up your training. Your physical condition is even worse than hers—now, we can't let her know you're still alive."
Black Edge didn't respond, but turned and returned to his exclusive training ground.
It wasn't until the two left that a rare trace of exhaustion flashed across Kexiao's face. Truth be told, his biggest apprehension, as well as his least concern in dealing with the Federation, was the Revenge Shadow Rider. He didn't care about the Shadow Rider at all, its battlefield function was almost negligible. As for Feng Yi, a small test had indirectly proven some things. For instance, not only could this man defeat all the assassins, but he also showed extraordinary negotiation skills. It was a pity that he was a bit thick-skinned and didn't remind that naive girl that even if the assassination mission failed, it would be better than being severely wounded and fleeing back—that would be indirectly admitting that silver was hidden here.
There's a saying, 'Fools have good fortune.' Since the naive girl wanted to play the role of a special agent, he would play along with her. In responding to the Heavenly Communication, Kexiao intentionally demonstrated a corrupt bureaucrat's public negotiation style—however much money was needed, he was willing to pay. As for Feng Yi, there was no need to publicize it for now and they would wait for further instructions. He pointed out that after this incident, this man must have been scared, and Sadra, both high and low, was an existence that all the major forces in the world dreaded.
Being noticed by such an organization, Feng Yi, like a startled bird, would surely prioritize defense. In other words, if the other party was prepared to defend, no matter how they were attacked, the effect wouldn't be ideal. Therefore, he decided to use this time to expand domestic demand, let the soldiers rejuvenate, and by the time of the next attack, they would defeat the enemy together with Sadra. Under the drive of double benefits, no one would refuse these entirely beneficial terms. What Sadra needed to do was just keep silent and wait for an opportunity—as members of Borg, each and every one of Sadra's members were indeed the most honest and trustful.
Not long after, Feng Yi received a mysterious Heavenly Communication from the Sadra organization. He was somewhat surprised to receive Kexiao's response to the intelligence. Despite the surprise, Feng Yi could not hide his excitement in the communication, "Hard work has paid off. It seems our agreement will end early."
Feng Yi, who said this, slowly hung up the Heavenly Communication. The guy was really excited. If a wise man like Kexiao could respond this way, it meant there was no suspicion. To vent his excitement, Feng Yi even decided to go all the way to the desert tavern to have a glass of Prairie White and celebrate.
As the saying goes, 'wine gives courage, one must enjoy life when one can.' The Dream Tavern in Death Desert was also where Sofia (Nangong Qi) worked. She said she loved nature and the desert yet, while everyone yearn for nature, it was Nangong Qi who liked its golden color.
Gold combined with the surname of the Nangong family would make Feng Yi think of the evil Nangong family, gold and evil. Even though this was nonsense told to him by Eggy, regardless of what others thought, Feng Yi still trusted this brother of his.
At this moment, it was dusk with wind and sand whirling. The sun was still above the horizon, and Feng Yi, who was in the Death Desert, felt as if he were in a different world. The same-colored sunset couldn't help but lift his spirits. Even though a sandstorm was raging, it could not stop the traveler from pressing on.
How long has it been since he enjoyed the fresh air of nature? Occasionally, he should relax and enjoy the rare tranquility and solitude of life.
By the time the stars were out, a fantastic tavern was beginning to emerge...or rather, the village often praised as the "Arctic Village" was originally an ancient town. There, you could feel an oncoming sense of years, unique architectural design, and a popular tavern among travelers. In this war-torn star system, people were always busy for livelihoods during the day. Nothing could compare to having a warm glass of strong wine in the evening.
There, men's hearty laughter, the endless tuning of equipment, the wild roars of machinists and the flirting of dancing girls could be heard. But the most important were the coveted goods—military supplies.
No one could ignore their existence. The Dreamy Auction House, it is said that every full moon, the Dreamy Auction House would bring out never-before-seen unusual equipment, as long as you had enough money.
In fact, this was also the purpose of Feng Yi's visit. Drinking was just one of the reasons. After upgrading his biological mecha, the existing equipment clearly could no longer meet his needs. Of course, the Blazing Revolver was an exception, its power should not be underestimated. This was a powerful piece of equipment he had taken off from Vladimir's mecha, but one Blazing Revolver obviously wasn't enough. So, the second reason why Feng Yi came here was to treasure hunt on this full moon night.
