310 After the Disaster
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation
After that, Chu Tianxiong decided to report the situation to the higher-ups of the Dragon Kingdom. He was ready to leave immediately and head to the capital of the Dragon Kingdom, Yan Jing!
In the end, Lu Benwei followed behind Chu Tianxiong as if he had something to ask of him.
“Lu Benwei, do you have something to say?” Chu Tianxiong asked after a pause.
Lu Benwei was stunned and then said, “Yes, Commander Chu. I do have a presumptuous request.”
“It’s about Lu Ziling?” Chu Tianxiong saw through Lu Benwei’s thoughts at a glance. “Are you thinking of joining us in our expedition if we find the Blood Monster Clan’s territory?”
“Yes!” Lu Benwei’s eyes lit up.
“No!”
He did not expect to be met with Chu Tianxiong’s righteous rejection. Lu Benwei was not surprised.
The conquest of the Blood Monster Clan, one of the 72 demon monster clans, was of great importance. Every member of the Blood Monster Clan was an elite among the elites.
Lu Benwei felt that he was not qualified enough yet. However, he did not want to give up, so he said in a deep voice, “Commander Chu, if I can reach level 60 before you set off, can I go with you?”
Chu Tianxiong was stunned for a moment, then he asked again, “Child, what did you just say?”
Lu Benwei repeated with a firm look in his eyes. “If I can reach level 60 before you guys set off, can I go with you?”
Chu Tianxiong was surprised. “Child, although we don’t know the whereabouts of the Blood Monster Clan’s territory, with the coordination and promotion of the Dragon Kingdom’s higher-ups, it will definitely not take more than two months to find the Blood Monster Clan’s whereabouts. I don’t think anyone can jump from level 45 to level 60 in two months.”
After a short pause, Chu Tianxiong continued, “But you give me a feeling that you’re the only one in the world who can do it! So, I agree to your request!”
Lu Benwei’s eyes lit up and he cupped his fists. “Many thanks, Commander Chu!”
When Commander Chu heard this, he nodded in relief. Then, his gaze turned to Chu Yan and became gentle.
“Yanyan, I might not be able to come home again this year for the new year…”
Chu Tianxiong no longer had his usual dignity, his tone was filled with kindness.
“You have to be good at home during the new year. Don’t…”
Before he could finish, Chu Tianxiong let out a deep sigh.
“Tsk, that’s what you say all the time. I’m sick of hearing it.” Chu Yan kicked away a small stone by her shoe to vent her dissatisfaction.
Chu Tianxiong laughed dryly and shrugged his shoulders to hide the embarrassment on his face. Finally, he sighed helplessly and turned his head.
“Principal Chen, I’ll have to trouble you to get rid of this matter.”
“Sure!” Chen Yuan said righteously.
Very quickly, Chu Tianxiong gathered the members of the Furious Dragon Legion and left Li City.
Looking at the Furious Dragon Legion leaving, Chen Yuan shrugged and waved his hand. “The two of you must be exhausted after such a great battle, right? Have a good rest for a few days. We’ll return to school after that.”
“What about you, Principal?” Chu Yan asked.
Chen Yuan waved his hand and said, “As for me, of course I’m going to work with the other eight principals to come up with the idea of the Blood Monster Emperor kidnapping Lu…”
Chen Yuan paused and carefully glanced at Lu Benwei. Seeing that he was fine, Chen Yuan continued, “Will investigate what the use of the divine fire that the Blood Monster Emperor has taken away is.”
Chen Yuan slapped his thigh and said, “Oh no, that guy was taken away by Commander Chu.”
When the three of them heard this, they all looked at the Blood Monster Prince.
“With the Furious Dragon Legion’s methods, we can definitely force out the Blood Monster Clan’s territory.”
Chu Yan was also extremely remorseful for throwing a tantrum at Chu Tianxiong.
“It’s no use, I’ve already asked. Other than the Blood Monster Emperor, no one else knows about the Blood Monster Clan’s territory,” Lu Benwei said lightly, his tone like a pool of dead water.
Chen Yuan and Chu Yan were stunned and swallowed their saliva. “Are you sure?”
Lu Benwei nodded slightly.
“Alright,” the two of them said in unison.
“That’s good,” Chen Yuan said, “Leave it to me so we can interrogate the Blood Monster Emperor about why he stole the divine fire.”
At this moment, Chen Yuan did not dare to mention Lu Ziling’s name.
Last time, Lu Benwei learned that Lu Ziling had the fire of god and almost tore down the school.
This time, Lu Ziling had been kidnapped, and her whereabouts were unknown. If Lu Benwei was provoked again, who knew what kind of trouble he would cause? It was possible that he could even pierce the sky.
Chu Yan was smart and tried to divert Lu Benwei’s attention.
“Annoying fellow, the battle is so intense. I wonder how Uncle and Aunty are doing. Let’s go find them.”
Lu Benwei squeezed out a smile and said, “Let’s go. We can visit Mr. Liu and Lin Feng while we’re at it.”
“They’re all fine.” Chu Yan held Lu Benwei’s arm and pulled him toward the refugee center.
…
Li City was severely damaged, and half of the city was destroyed.
The refugee center had been seriously overloaded. There was a sea of people inside. The screams of injuries, quarrels and curses, and complaints about the hot water were endless.
Chu Yan pulled Lu Benwei through the crowd and finally found Lu Dayong and Jiang Xiuqin in a corner. They stayed with Liu Yi. At the same time, they found Lin Feng, Zhao Xiaoqi, and Hai Yue.
When Lu Dayong and Jiang Xiuqin saw Lu Benwei, their hearts were finally at ease.
“Little Lu, it’s great that you’re fine. You’re not hurt, are you?” Jiang Xiuqin’s tears fell.
Lu Benwei shook his head and squeezed out a smile. “I’m fine. I’m fine.”
“Oh right, where’s your sister?” Lu Dayong asked.
Chu Yan’s expression immediately changed. Her brain was working like crazy, thinking about how to change the topic.
...
However, Lu Benwei scratched his head and said, “I don’t know. We came here together. She saw a patient on the way and went to help. She might be here in a while.”
When Chu Yan heard this, the heavy stone in her throat fell.
On the side, Lu Dayong and Jiang Xiuqin heaved a sigh of relief. Their hearts were finally at ease.
“This girl, look at the time, she still doesn’t want to hurry home.” Jiang Xiuqin complained.
Lu Dayong was very happy. “What’s the big deal? The country is in trouble. Ziling is doing this to make a small contribution to the country.”
“Lu Benwei, I have to criticize you on this point. You should learn from your sister and have a bigger view!”
“I know, Dad.” Lu Benwei grinned.
Lu Dayong nodded with relief and turned his gaze to Chu Yan.
“You… You must be Chu Yan, right?”
Lu Dayong’s words also caught Jiang Xiuqin’s attention, and her eyes lit up.
“I knew that this girl was beautiful, but I didn’t expect that she would be even more beautiful than she was on the live broadcast!”
