Chapter 730 - 351: Bad News and Good News
Yu Feng and Su Jiameng hadn’t contacted each other in years. Although they both had the Plane Trading Platform, a tool that ignored spatial and network limitations, they were both busy people. When facing trouble, they just handled it themselves and wouldn’t confide in others. Even if they did, what good would it do?
Yu Feng was busy as an admiral for the Alliance, while Su Jiameng was tirelessly leading her team to raid Insect Race lairs everywhere, separated by countless light years. They weren’t particularly close, so naturally, there wasn’t much to talk about. You could also say that Su Jiameng completely forgot about Yu Feng, only thinking of his role after her missions were completed, whereas Yu Feng was quietly waiting for Su Jiameng to reach out...
No matter how you put it, two merchants from different planes finally reunited. Su Jiameng had changed quite a bit, and if it weren’t for the merchant’s insignia on her, Yu Feng might’ve thought she had been swapped out by someone! Glancing left and right, Yu Feng couldn’t help but ask, "All these years, have you been fighting with the Insect Race or secretly getting cosmetic surgery? Such a huge change!"
As they say, after not seeing someone for a long time, you should look at them with new eyes. It had been five years since Su Jiameng saw Yu Feng, and she hadn’t expected this man’s decorum to have completely vanished, allowing him to make such cheeky remarks. Even though this was just a joke, she felt a bit annoyed.
"As the saying goes, a woman’s beauty transforms at eighteen, and the more naturally beautiful she is, the more charming she becomes as she grows." Su Jiameng raised her hand to brush her long hair by her ear, tucking it behind her ear, audaciously spewing this narcissistic comment, successfully leaving Yu Feng speechless.
"Alright, let’s put the teasing aside for now and return to the Alliance. You’ve been doing missions continuously for years, and even if your body isn’t tired, your mind must be fatigued. Rest in the Alliance for a few days to recharge." Yu Feng looked at the chaotic battlefield around them, then turned to Su Jiameng, noticing blood trickling from her foot, her pant leg half-ripped, exposing her bloody calf. He couldn’t help but gasp, "Looks like you just went through a pretty intense battle... What’s with your foot?"
Su Jiameng only realized her injury when she looked down at her foot. If Yu Feng hadn’t mentioned it, she wouldn’t have noticed the pain! Furrowing her brow, she thought deeply about how she got hurt, finally recalling the reason.
Earlier, she was atop the insect cocoon and, to quickly obtain the King of Clay, she used an Energy Cannon to blast the cocoon wall beneath her, probably getting injured at that time. Slightly moving her toes sent a stabbing pain straight to her brain, almost making her lose her balance.
Prior to this, surrounded by strong opponents, she didn’t dare distract herself, thus ignoring her injury. Now that the danger had passed, with her tense nerves relaxing, the pain naturally intensified. Waving to Yu Feng, she shamelessly said, "Come, give me a hand."
Ordered around, Yu Feng’s face darkened, secretly thinking this woman really has no qualms, but his body instinctively stepped forward to support her as he spoke to Liang Xiaonuo and others, "Stand closer. We’ll teleport back immediately and send injured members to the medical facility for treatment. If convenient, I’d like to hear how you completed your task."
Su Jiameng reminded Theo, "Bring that Divine Hidden Clan guy too. He’s an excellent test subject, and it’d be a shame to leave him behind. There are some matters I need to discuss thoroughly with Admiral Yu Feng... Problems in this plane seem even more numerous than those in my previous plane... I didn’t feel it before, but now it hurts like hell. If you hadn’t reminded me, I wouldn’t have felt the pain."
Yu Feng truly felt attacked even while standing. He merely reminded out of concern, so how did it all become his fault? Ah, women, truly inexplicable creatures! Even if this woman is considered the strongest Valkyrie in the Alliance, it’s no different.
His demeanor remained composed and serious, but internally, his mind was racing with comments. Despite this, Yu Feng didn’t overlook Su Jiameng mentioning the Divine Hidden Clan earlier... Divine Hidden Clan? Isn’t that race supposed to be extinct for thousands of years? How are there still members around, appearing here? He silently suppressed his inner doubts and used his Merchant Medal to summon the Teleportation Array, initiating the teleportation!
Three hours later, the group appeared inside the rest room attached to Yu Feng’s office. Without a word, he sent Su Jiameng to the medical facility; the person treating her was Yu Feng’s personal physician and right-hand confidant, absolutely trustworthy.
