In the current Destiny, Kai Ya was one of the more senior members. She had once been in the same stronghold as Long Gang and had been rescued by the magically powered warriors of the underwater city. Afterwards, she had secretly joined Destiny with Long Gang.
Come to think of it, Kai Ya had already served the organisation for over twenty years.
The moment her identity was revealed, everyone present could not help but be surprised … Of course, most of them were surprised by Kai Ya's actions of covering her face and participating in the meeting.
"Alright, explain yourself now!" After revealing Kai Ya's identity, the man said sternly, "Just what is Joashur's value that we have to sacrifice so much to save him … Is it just because he's your husband and you, Kai Ya, are one of the founding members of the organisation?"
Kai Ya could not help but frown.
If she did not answer this question properly, she would probably plant bad seeds in the organisation. After the incident with Long Gang, the organisation was in turmoil, and their morale was at its lowest.
"Enough." Master Karen tapped the crutch in his hand. "The matter of rescuing Joashur was decided after a discussion between Longgang and I. If you don't trust him in this matter, that means you don't trust me and Long Gang … Do you think Long Gang is someone who would act on his own for personal gain? He saved you … he saved most of you here! You know better than me what Long Gang is like! "
"Master!" The man bellowed out in disbelief.
"Alright, I'll speak." Kai Ya sucked in a deep breath and looked at everyone. She said sternly, "I'll tell you the reason!"
"Kai Ya?" Master Karen frowned.
"Master, it's all because of the organisation. He sacrificed his companion for everyone. There's nothing to hide," Kai Ya shook her head. "I believe that many people here know that my husband, Joashur, is a researcher in Astral-6. We also vaguely know that Astral-6 hides the secret of the emperor controlling and enslaving the people of the underwater city … It's very likely that Joashur already knows this secret! "
"Really?!"
The scene was filled with whispers of discussion.
However, the man who had revealed Kai Ya's identity said furiously, "Are you joking? You and Joashur have been together for almost twenty years. Your child is almost an adult … Don't tell me you didn't know about this all along?! "
However, Kai Ya walked up to him and met his furious gaze, not backing down at all. "Joashur is a secret researcher in Astral-6. He's probably the emperor of the underwater city! He needs to keep everything a secret. He even needs to guard against me, his wife! If it wasn't for the incident with Astral-6 and his capture by the Royal Government, I wouldn't even have known about this! You don't have to trust me, but do you not even trust Longgang?! "
"He's your brother!" The man sneered and said, "Don't think I don't know this secret … He is your brother. For you, he was willing to take the risk and rescue your husband. What's so strange about that?!"
Kai Ya stared at him coldly. Faced with how aggressive he was right now, she suddenly said emotionlessly, "Three years ago, when you were being pursued by the military, who was it that risked his heart almost being pierced to save you? Who was it that was on his last breath when he returned, but he still carried you back?"
The man instinctively shifted his gaze away from Kai Ya. He gritted his teeth and said, "He's a hybrid of the sirens anyway. His vitality is naturally much greater than ours. Who knows if he didn't do that for his own reputation?"
Kai Ya did not say anything. She simply delivered a knee strike.
The attack was sudden and vicious, directly knocking the man to the ground. He vomited blood as his body twitched. He was in excruciating pain.
"He saved you. Your life should have been his … Now, I'm taking it back for him." Kai Ya's face was cold. She did not hide the killing intent in her eyes at all.
She drew her gun from her waist and directly pressed it against the man's forehead.
The man trembled in fear, but he said hysterically, "I've also done meritorious deeds for Destiny! I've also risked my life! What right do you have to kill me? Why is it that your husband is worth saving, but my wife and the people who are still suffering in the mines aren't worth saving? What's the point of keeping Destiny like this? "
He even extended his hand to grab Kai Ya's gun and pressed it against his forehead. "Kill me! Kill me! Kill me! Kill me! Kill me! Why don't you kill me! Kill me! "
"What are you all doing? Separate them! "Master Karen could not watch this any longer. Her furious voice rang out before everyone.
Only then did the men snap out of their stupor. They shivered before quickly rushing over and separating the two of them with great effort.
"The kingdom's government is as stable as iron, but we're having internal strife! Have you forgotten what you said before you joined the organisation? "Master Karen said furiously," Lock them up! No one is allowed to let them out before we calm down! "
A man heard that and could only walk before Kai Ya. He said softly, "I'm sorry."
Kai Ya sighed. She loosened her grip and the gun slipped from her hand, falling to the ground. She closed her eyes and allowed them to take her away.
… …
The discussion this time was probably unable to continue. Seeing this, master Karen could only dismiss everyone for now. The members of Destiny all had different identities. They lived in different places in the underwater city and had different occupations. Some of them had left their posts for too long, which would easily raise suspicion.
The secret room used for gathering was now empty. Only master Karen and the young man who had helped Kai Ya in the beginning remained.
"Kong Hai … do you think Destiny should lay low for a while?" Master Karen constantly rubbed the handle of her cane as she raised her head to look at the young man beside her.
Kong Hai was the young man's name.
However, the young man said, "The greatest problem with Destiny is that they've never seen hope. This uneasiness will only wear away at their passion as time goes on … Even if they lay low, even if they nurture a new batch of people. But how long do you have to wait for someone like Long Gang to appear? "
Master Karen remained silent.
The young man continued slowly, "Long Gang's value doesn't lie in his abilities. It also lies in his relationship with the Siren race … To be honest, losing Long Gang is a loss that Destiny won't be able to make up for in a hundred years."
"You mean we still have to save him?" Master Karen could not help but frown deeply.
"That's up to you," Kong Hai said indifferently, "After all, you're the leader of Destiny."
Master Karen laughed bitterly, "I don't have the right. I've just been a coward. I've been hiding until now. I've only picked up this hot potato because I've waited until those who can bring me hope died."
Kong Hai said emotionlessly, "The dead have no value. Only the living have value. Being able to live until now is a talent in itself. "
Master Karen shook his head. After a long moment of silence, he seemed to have made a decision and said in a low voice, "The palace gave me a notice before, asking me to enter the palace to teach a student … You can be my assistant and come with me to the palace."
"At this time?" Kong Hai frowned and asked curiously, "Student? Who is it? "
Master Karen shook his head. "I don't know, but this order was directly given by that witch. The military police were even dispatched, and the notice was sent directly to my house … My housekeeper must have been scared out of her wits."
"When do you plan to go?" Kong Hai asked again.
Master Karen thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow morning … It's too late today."
Kong Hai nodded, "Then I'll go back and prepare."
"Go." Master Karen waved his hand, "I'll stay here for a while … to think about something."
…
…
When they saw Reyaz, before Boss Luo and Miss Maid could speak, this young man wrapped in gauze bowed his head apologetically, "I'm sorry! I've implicated you! I'm really sorry! "
"Why do you say that?"
Reyaz smiled bitterly, "It must be because of [Asla] … I know what happened to [Asla] during the competition. That's not the technology of our underwater city. You see, even I can see it. How can the kingdom's government's technicians not know? "
Boss Luo smiled, "Even so, it's not your fault."
Reyaz opened his mouth.
Boss Luo sat down, "You see, after we agreed to be your support, we began to modify your [Serpent] … In fact, before the modification, we were already prepared to be discovered and thought of some consequences."
"Then why did you …"
Boss Luo smiled, "We are merchants … Merchants have to do business. This modification of [Asla] can be said to be an advertisement. You should understand that no matter how good the description is, it's not as intuitive as actually seeing it once. "
"So …" Reyaz reacted instantly, "Your technology has been noticed by His Majesty?!"
Miss Maid continued, "Reyaz, now we are temporarily staying in the palace as VIPs. But it's not convenient to disclose business matters to you. "
Reyaz nodded, "It's okay … As long as I didn't implicate you."
Luoqiu suddenly asked, "You don't blame us for using you to participate in the [Serpent] competition?"
Reyaz bitterly smiled and said, "Just like you said, everyone has to be responsible for their own words and actions … Back then, when I asked you to help me participate in the tournament, I should have considered many things … The good side, the bad side, I should have considered them all. But I'm too young, so I can't blame anyone. Besides, because of [Asla White Qilin], I've already competed with His Majesty to the end. This is something unimaginable in the past … Let's just treat it as a draw. "
"If you think it's fair, then that's good." Boss Luo smiled casually.
Reyaz said helplessly, "But, if there's a next time, can you tell me in advance … When [Asla] suddenly spoke to me, it really scared me … What did it call itself, White … White God?"
"Don't worry about it." Miss Maid smiled slightly and said, "That's just a defective thing … Because it's defective in itself, it's easily angered and arrogant."
Reyaz was stunned, but he didn't dare to ask more … The magical thing hidden in [Asla] was probably what these two used to make a deal with His Majesty, right?
"Unfortunately … now [Asla] has been taken back by the kingdom's government." Reyaz said apologetically, "Will this cause you losses … If the kingdom's technical personnel crack the technology on [Asla], then your business with His Majesty, will …"
Miss Maid said indifferently, "How long has it taken for the underwater city to develop its magical technology to this point?"
Reyaz said subconsciously, "Magical technology has existed before the Age of Destruction … Including the current underwater city, I'm afraid it's at least … Well, I don't know how long it's been."
"They need at least the same amount of time to make a new [Asla White Qilin]."
Hearing this big sister's confident words, Reyaz couldn't help but be shocked … He didn't doubt it, but he became more curious in his heart. "You … Who are you?"
"Merchants, merchants who sell everything." This time, it was the boss's answer. "Also, we sell products to every customer … Even every person, as long as they sincerely want to trade with us."
Reyaz shook his head. "What a strange rule … Are all the merchants in the surface world like this?"
Boss Luo smiled and said, "Speaking of which, the business model of the underwater city may be better than the business model of the surface world now."
Reyaz's eyes lit up. "Can you tell me about the surface world? The academy has few records about the surface world … Even if there is, it's the environment before the underwater city sank! To what extent has the surface world developed now … By the way, apart from mobile phones, are there any other technologies? "
Boss Luo glanced at Reyaz and suddenly asked, "You seem to have something on your mind, right?"
Reyaz was startled, then he smiled bitterly and nodded. "A lot of things have happened. My mind is in a mess now … I can't sort it out, so I want to do something to divert my attention."
Boss Luo smiled and said, "If you think it's okay, we can be your audience."
Reyaz subconsciously opened his mouth … But in an instant, some kind of resistance signal in his body suddenly jumped. It was just that this kind of jump came and went quickly. He immediately felt that it didn't matter even if he said it out loud.
So, Reyaz opened his mouth and said helplessly, "Well, after seeing His Majesty the Emperor today, I seem to have inexplicably become the prince of the underwater city …"
