In the command room, everyone heaved a sigh of relief at the monster’s disappearing figure.

The monster finally left.

Although they had won, the price paid was extremely heavy.

For the military, putting aside the destroyed fighter planes, just the sacrificed soldiers were an irreparable loss.

In addition, apart from Wang Zhixing’s family of four and the wealthy big shots who had escaped by helicopter, none of the tourists in the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace were spared.

The source of all this was the monsters.

After completing the mission, the Phantom jets did not leave immediately. Instead, they took the corpses of the two level-one monsters back for research purposes.

.

Meanwhile, the Eastern Sea Military Command started to clean up the battlefield.

The night couldn’t return to being peaceful.

…

The next day, a piece of news made the headlines.

The main content of the news was a small-scale battle between the Bitver Empire and the Xia Country had occurred in the Eastern Sea, and both sides suffered losses.

The moment the news was released, it caused a sensation around the world.

The Bitver Empire was considered the most powerful country in the world right now.

As for Xia country, it was a big country in the East. Its overall national strength placed it firmly in the top ten of the world rankings.

Both were powerful countries. A battle between the two would be spectacular.

For a time, the countries worldwide were discussing the outcome of the battle and which side would win.

The Bitver Empire and Xia country held a press conference immediately to answer the reporters’ questions. Both sides also claimed that they had won the battle last night.

Since there was no video and both parties held to their statement, the outside world could not judge.

For a time, this battle became confusing and complicated.

But it was certain that their battle would be very exciting.

But now…

The waters of the Eastern Sea were completely under the control of the military. It was completely sealed off. No one was allowed to enter.

…

Eastern Sea Military Command.

After Wang Zhixing’s family of four remained in a secret underground room since being brought here last night.

It seemed like it was for their protection, but they were being controlled.

However, none of them seemed to realize this. Instead, they especially expressed their gratitude to the military.

Everyone was tense after the thrilling experience last night and went to bed late at night.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door.

Seeing that his family was still asleep, Wang Zhixing rose and opened the door.

“Hello, my name is Su Zhiyong,” the senior officer introduced himself.

Wang Zhixing nodded and sized up Su Zhiyong.

Judging from the bar on his military uniform, he was a lieutenant.

Wang Zhixing thought that since the senior officer had personally come, he must have something important to say.

Thus, Wang Zhixing walked out and closed the door. Then, he asked softly, “Officer Su, is anything the matter?”

Su Zhiyong also sized up Wang Zhixing.

A soldier’s insight and intuition were very sharp.

Although Wang Zhixing had concealed his aura, Su Zhiyong’s intuition told him that this person was not simple.

Last night, there were three monsters, and one was a level-two monster.

Those who jumped into the sea were all killed. Only Wang Zhixing’s family survived, and they had successfully returned to the shore.

That was a journey of more than ten nautical miles. Yet, they managed to reach the shore.

Perhaps it was luck, but skill was an indispensable factor.

Returning to his senses, Su Zhiyong said, “This is a confidentiality agreement. Take a look.”

With that, Su Zhiyong opened the folder clamped under his arm.

There were a few documents inside. The contents were dense lines of rules and regulations.

Wang Zhixing was extremely calm as if he had already expected this.

He took the document and carefully flipped through it page by page.

The contents were indeed similar to what he had guessed.

The government was stopping them from revealing any information about the monsters to the outside world.

Wang Zhixing frowned. With such a huge commotion tonight, he thought the public would stay suspicious even without his input.

While he was deep in thought, the door to the secret room suddenly opened, and Wang Jiajun walked out.

“Jiajun, you’re awake. Have you slept enough?” Wang Zhixing squeezed out a smile.

Wang Jiajun nodded. “What is this?”

He pointed at the document in Wang Zhixing’s hand.

Su Zhiyong immediately said, “It’s a confidentiality agreement.”

“A confidentiality agreement?” Wang Jiajun was shocked. “Let me see.”

“I’ll give you mine.” Wang Zhixing handed the document to his son.

Wang Jiajun took the document and flipped through it carefully.

After watching for a while, his expression gradually darkened. He looked pretty angry.

The contents of the document were very clear.

The military would give them a large sum of money, and in exchange, they were not allowed to tell anyone what they had seen last night. Otherwise, the government would punish them for endangering national security.

Wang Jiajun was about to fly into a rage after reading it. Fortunately, he managed to hold himself back.

Wang Jiajun tried his best to suppress his anger and questioned, “Sir, don’t the citizens of Xia country have the right to be in the know? Can’t we express our freedom of speech?”

Su Zhiyong didn’t deny it. He said firmly, “These are special circumstances.”

Special circumstances?

Heh—What a special circumstance.

Wang Jiajun almost flew into a rage.

The government had always adopted such a tone after every major incident.

After a moment of silence, Wang Jiajun spoke again.

“Sir, since you want us to keep it a secret, you have to let us know what kind of creature.”

Su Zhiyong thought for a while and said, “Sure. Those creatures are called monsters.”

Wang Jiajun was stunned. “That’s it?”

“I’ve already told you what kind of creature this is. As for the rest, it’s classified information.”

“You…” Wang Jiajun was furious.

Wang Zhixing pulled him away.

Wang Zhixing turned around and smiled at Su Zhiyong. “Sir, we will sign this agreement.”

“Dad…” Wang Jiajun had something to say.

“Shut up. Are you the father or am I the father? This matter is settled,” Wang Zhixing said solemnly.

Su Zhiyong was stunned.

He had always thought that these two people were either brothers or twins, but he had never expected them to be father and son.

The father was too young. It was as if he were aging backward.

Wang Zhixing and Wang Jiajun signed the agreement skeptically.

When Huan Huan and Lin Juan woke up, they also signed the agreement.

After signing the agreement, they received some money and took the military plane back to Beichuan.

On the way back, they also saw the sensational news.

They couldn’t help but be amazed. The government’s methods to cover up the truth were truly brilliant.

By using the war and the traces left behind by the monsters, their excuse could explain everything.

…

Night.

Wang Zhixing’s house.

The family of four sat down for a talk.

“Dad, can you give us a reasonable explanation for some things?” Wang Jiajun frowned and stared at Wang Zhixing.

“Dad, we’re family. What is there you can’t tell us?” Lin Juan said calmly.

“That’s right! Grandpa, how did you run on the surface of the sea?” Huan Huan played with her fingers and asked curiously.

Wang Zhixing patted his thigh and sighed. “At first, I wanted to have fun with you guys as an ordinary person. After all, we are family.

“But after this incident, I feel that I should tell you the truth.

“I’m coming clean. I’m an immortal cultivator. ”
