"Take care."
Qing Yang calmly sent Su Hao and Wei Zhuang away. There was even a hint of a smile on his face. That indifferent look fully displayed the temperament of a world esper. It was completely different from his previous dark face. It was as if what happened earlier was just an illusion of the crowd.
"Senior isn't angry?"
A certain technician felt a little relieved.
"Hehe, where did you get that from?"
"Look at how friendly Senior is now!"
A certain technician quietly pointed at Qing Yang.
"I heard that when Senior is so angry that he can't control himself, he will use Rule Force to keep his body as calm as possible …"
A certain technician trembled when he heard this, and he was stunned.
Rule Force? Used to control one's expression? Either he has too much Rule Force, or Senior Qing Yang is on the verge of going berserk.
"Happy cooperation."
Su Hao shook hands with a smile before leaving with Wei Zhuang.
"Let's go back."
Looking at Su Hao leaving, Qing Yang returned with an indifferent look as if nothing had happened.
However, according to the records, in the afternoon, the entire Origin Ability Association Branch was emitting a thick Rule Force, which made everyone frightened. It was said that Senior Qing Yang used Rule Force to prevent himself from going berserk and destroying the entire branch …
Tian family, conference room.
The leaders of the Tian family were discussing strategic matters. Even Tian Gang and Tian Zi were among them. When they heard that Xie Te and the others had returned, they couldn't help but rejoice.
"Where are the Nitai artifacts?"
An elder hurriedly asked when he saw Xie Te and the others returning.
Xie Te's face was sad.
"What happened?"
The elder's heart skipped a beat, "Could it be …"
"I'm sorry."
Xie Te lowered his head in shame, "The mission failed."
"What?"
Everyone was shocked. Looking at Xie Te and the others who were almost intact without any scars, their face revealed a strange look, "Could it be that you didn't see the Nitai artifacts?"
Thinking about it carefully, this was the only explanation.
Under normal circumstances, a mission failure would mean total annihilation. For Xie Te to return in such a good condition, it could only mean that everything went smoothly. Xie Te bitterly smiled. Just as he was about to say something, Tian Zi, who had been silently looking at them, suddenly opened his mouth. "What about that Lin Hu in your team?"
"Eh?"
Everyone looked over again and found that although Xie Te's team was not injured, there were only eight people. They were missing two people!
"Dead."
Xie Te's expression turned gloomy as he briefly explained the situation. After listening to it, everyone's heart skipped a beat. A world esper! Sure enough, it was a world esper who took action! They were well aware of Xie Te's strength. If he goes all out, it wouldn't be a problem for him to fight against five people at once. Only world espers could suppress him!
A world esper actually intervened in such a matter?
Were they that free?
Tian Gang's eyes turned cold, "Seems that we still underestimated the other party's strength. Under our pressure, they actually sent out a world esper to interfere with our mission. It's impolite not to reciprocate. Third Elder, let those few who just entered the world realm go to the other party's territory for a stroll. "
"Yes."
The Third Elder revealed a cruel expression.
"As for that Lin Hu …"
Tian Gang sighed as he spoke, "When we were in Tiankeng, I did suspect him. Never would I have thought that he would be such a righteous person. When facing danger, he could even block it for you. Even if it's a world esper, he isn't afraid. Such a talent is what our Tian family needs. Too bad, there was a more important task for him."
Tian Gang shook his head. Suddenly, he noticed that Tian Zi couldn't suppress his smile. Frowning, he seemed to have thought of something, "Who asked Lin Hu to carry out this mission?"
Tian Zi was shocked and quickly stood up, "It's me."
"Oh, sit down."
Tian Gang waved his hand and no longer spoke.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became oppressive. Everyone seemed to have thought of something as well. The way they looked at Tian Zi also turned strange. Tian Zi's face turned green and white. Everyone's suspicious eyes made him angry. He just asked Lin Hu to carry out a dangerous mission and didn't harm him!
But would others believe him?
Tian Zi's joy of discovering Lin Hu's death was suddenly splashed with a bucket of cold water.
"I don't blame you all. Since it's a world esper who took action, you all are powerless to stop him." Tian Gang looked at Xie Te and the others, "Go back and rest. Prepare for the next mission."
"Yes."
Xie Te and the others respectfully retreated.
Just like that, the daily meeting ended hastily. Originally, if nothing unexpected happened, this matter would have ended just like that. However, who would have thought that at night, a shocking piece of news would come from the door. That person named Lin Hu had actually returned! He came back alive!
Xie Te was shocked. Everyone in Team F also widened their eyes.
The moment Tian Gang and the elders received the news, they called everyone to the meeting room again. At the same time, Su Hao, who had just returned from outside, also came over.
"He's really still alive."
Xie Te pinched Su Hao for a bit. It was real.
Tian Gang's eyes swept across Su Hao's body. Using his Rule Force, he didn't find any trace of disguise or origin ability. This was indeed the real Lin Hu.
"Aren't you dead?"
"Nope."
Su Hao scratched his head, "I have a talent origin technique. When I encounter a serious danger, it will allow me to preserve my last breath no matter how strong the attack is. Thus, when I saw Captain Xie Te in danger, I immediately rushed forward. Otherwise, I wouldn't have dared to risk my life like that."
Su Hao was a bit embarrassed. It seemed that his little trick was exposed.
"You brat."
Xie Te gave him a hard slap.
Everyone found it funny. This also explained why Lin Hu would strangely save Xie Te's life because he wouldn't really die. As for that strange origin technique of Lin Hu, everyone had heard of it before. It was because of this that Lin Hu managed to escape from the destruction of his hometown.
"It's good that you're alive."
Tian Gang's eyes flashed a smile, "Thank you for your hard work. This mission failed due to force majeure. The mission reward will be issued as usual. You all have done well. At least, we have eliminated one traitor."
"Yes."
Everyone responded.
"Go back."
Tian Gang waved his hand, and everyone retreated.
The elders in the hall whispered to each other. Obviously, they were quite satisfied with Su Hao. Such a person is the kind of talent that the Tian family wants. He is loyal, strong, talented, and has a good relationship with the team. Compared to Tian Zi, who has inherited the position of Clan Head but is still narrow-minded, he is much better.
Kacha!
Tian Zi clenched his fists.
Needless to say, he could guess what these old men were thinking. However, there were still some things in this mission that he didn't quite understand. With some doubts, he said, "Since there are traces of our Tian family, why are there still spies? Life and death are in our hands, yet they dare to betray us? Could it be that Xie Te lied to us? "
The elders glanced at him and sighed.
Tian Gang calmly said, "Some things, in the eyes of some people, are more important than life. For example, Lin Hu is willing to block this attack for Xie Te. We can control life, but we can't control people's hearts. Otherwise, the Tian family would have long ruled the world. These, you will understand in the future. "
"Let's disperse."
After the temporary meeting ended, everyone dispersed, leaving behind a dazed Tian Zi. He could see the elders' disappointment in him and Tian Gang's disregard …
In fact, he had long understood.
If not for his master, if not for the fact that the Tian family invested so many resources in him, this Clan Head position wouldn't even be his turn, even if it's just a puppet!
Tian Zi had been holding it in, but now, he couldn't hold it in anymore!
In the past, forget about it, but now? Just a mere Lin Hu, who just joined the Tian family for a short period of time, the evaluation of the Tian family members was already far above him.
"I will prove it to you all."
Tian Zi's clenched fists were dripping with blood.
*****
The first strategic mission ended.
Although he had failed, the result was unexpectedly good. Su Hao's bravery and loyalty had won the unanimous approval of everyone in the team. No matter what kind of mentality they had, who wouldn't be willing to have such a teammate who was willing to take a bullet for them at such a crucial moment?
Thus, Su Hao's popularity was very high.
He didn't show any fear in front of a world esper. The news of him blocking an attack by himself was also circulated in the Tian family. Along the way, whether they knew Su Hao or not, they would greet him politely. In just one mission, Su Hao gained an unimaginable popularity in the Tian family.
"Did you see that? That's Lin Hu."
"He's so young and is also a domain esper. Look at him."
"He's much stronger than Tian Zi."
The Tian family members who passed by whispered.
As for Su Hao himself, everything was being carried out in an orderly manner.
The crazy breakthrough in the Origin Ability Association allowed him to gain another 20% of his potential accumulation. Now, the original 60% accumulation had reached 80%!
If there is another chance like this, just one more time!
Su Hao would be able to step into the domain realm.
The reward from the Tian family was nothing to him. After completing the mission, he had been cultivating for the past few days, familiarizing himself with his body and familiarizing himself with combat techniques.
For his current strength, he must have a clear understanding of it.
Facing an absolute domain head-on!
Even if he only had Mountain Breaker and some basic fighting techniques, Su Hao could rely on his terrifying physical fitness to fight against an absolute domain. However, when facing a life domain esper or peak domain esper, it would be a bit too much. In fact, there was no difference between them.
He couldn't win in a fight, but he could run.
Unless he uses Shadowless God Needle!
"Still far from it."
Su Hao continued to cultivate.
He couldn't place all his hopes on Shadowless God Needle. Otherwise, it would be the same as the previous time. When his Rule Force is exhausted, he would be finished. Only by improving his own strength would he gain strength that truly belongs to him! Only by breaking through into the domain realm would he be able to face life domain espers and peak domain espers.
Time passed quickly, and a week passed by in a flash.
After the break from the previous mission, Su Hao soon welcomed his second strategic mission. When he was notified, Su Hao was dumbfounded when he looked at the mission description. Mission description: Assassinate the current Clan Head of the Bai family, Bai Lingfeng.
"Bai Lingfeng?"
Su Hao looked at this familiar name and was somewhat disappointed. It had been a long time since they last met …
