After resting for over a hundred days in Great Wu, ng Yu returned to the Immortal Sect and wrote a report, declaring the loss of the Firebird Undying Sword, as well as the damage to two Heavenly Silkworm Treasure Armors and a few Healing Talismans.
It's quite normal to lose weapons during military operations, isn't it? Misplacing supplies is commonplace, and taking showers with mineral water is no big deal, right? Surely no one thinks you can't have air conditioning on 24/7 in a military tent?
So, the support system issued new weapons, and then the killing continued.
These monsters were tough, but they also made the best whetstones.
And then, precious items encountered along the way were stored in the storage ring, to be sent back to Great Wu whenever the opportunity arose.
Would anyone be suspicious?
What a joke, ng Yu's weapon attrition was considered minimal compared to what those squads went through in intense battles!
Rember, when poor cultivators find out they can claim expenses and get supplied with Spirit Talismans and weapons in Immortal Sect wars, those regular troops go much further than ng Yu! That's why the Immortal Sect would rather hire cultivators and allow students from Penglai University to handle the rescue operations, rather than deploying official departnts.
On Azure Star, trading weapons is illegal, but in the Immortal Sect, weapons can literally be used as currency!
And this currency can even be used to buy life and the future!
Who doesn't know how to exploit a good situation?
...
Days passed one by one, and after battling continuously for two months, ng Yu, who never took a break or asked for leave and was always fighting on the front line, aside from being at the top of every KPI, finally decided to take a day off under the repeated requests of his superiors—in fact, they were close to swearing at him—to quell the rising discontent.
It was rare to have a day off, though it wasn't as relaxing as the hundred-plus days in Great Wu, or as abundant in whatever you wished for, but... ng Yu still decided to check the command center to see if Zhuge Caihua needed help with anything.
Thanking this kind girl for helping him complete the second red mission.
ng Yu, carrying a cup of tea, walked toward the command center. Along the way, he passed many handso n and pretty won. So looked decent, except for their dark circles, while others were outright slovenly, throwing all decorum out the window.
ng Yu felt a deep sadness for the quality of the Immortal Sect's younger generation.
There he saw Zhuge Caihua, looking stunned and pale, with red eyes and devoid of strength, like she had been ravaged by dozens of cats in a cat café, no, rather she was on the verge of collapse after two months of command.
Before the mission, the superiors told Zhuge Caihua and the other commanders that as ship girls, err... humanoid AI terminals, they must be humble and temperate.
You will face the most painful monts of your life.
First cos physical exhaustion. In the past, many Minor Worlds had seen battles involving hundreds of thousands, even millions of people, where commanders would be on the go for months, so exhausted they were barely human, all data had to be processed in their minds, and they couldn't slack off in any area, ready to sacrifice everything for victory.
And they, this ti, were to command a planet, billions of people, against hundreds of billions of monsters!
Then, it was the psychological pressure.
She arrived full of confidence, believing she was up to the task.
And then... two months went by, and she felt she was on the brink of a breakdown.
Every decision she made could determine the fate of hundreds, thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of lives. Sotis, the local people she had just gotten to know would go into battle and then be sacrificed.
Oh, and soone was cleaning up nearby. Zhuge Caihua frowned—hadn't she said not to touch her stuff or try to curry favor with unnecessary gestures?
Numbly turning her head, she saw ng Yu.
There he was, diligently clearing the clutter, including serving tea and water—wait, when did the Immortal Sect beco so extravagant as to employ soone like ng Yu as a servant?
The brightness emanating from him was a stark contrast to Zhuge Caihua and the other commanders' tired eyes.
This odd fellow!
A thousand people from Penglai University had arrived, and on the attendance sheet, even the most persistent person had taken a few days off, yet ng Yu... this guy was still hopping around, doing the most arduous and exhausting job with the strongest killings. His dedication to work and high efficiency shocked even the people of Changdong Minor World, who expressed that the Immortal Sect was truly formidable, that such a powerful person would obediently go to prison and work hard awaiting release!
The weirdo from the Immortal Sect was indeed such a weirdo!
How did he end up here?
"Well, you gave a day off, so I ca over to see if there was anything I could help with," he said.
His smile was sunny, and his voice, clear and captivating!
"Don't you need to rest?"
"What is rest?"
Penglai University had done much research on Divine Refinent, and now, everyone inside the command center was staring, but what did they see?
A man who had been fighting continuously for sixty-five days, battling day and night, was in incredibly good shape, his Divine Soul crystal clear and flawless, still maintaining boundless passion!
Essence, Qi, and Spirit, these were the fundantals of cultivation, but the last one, the strength of the Divine Soul, was often overlooked by most cultivators because it was difficult to asure with instrunts and slow to cultivate. However, the truly strong knew that the Divine Soul could be even more important than the first two to so extent.
"You're not tired, no…"
"Ah, the things you're talking about, they don't bother ."
If previously Zhuge Caihua had suspected that ng Yu had so sort of treasure, this ti, she could only admire ng Yu's talent (after returning from a break of over a hundred days).
If you called him a heartless and ruthless man, it might still be okay, but you could clearly feel his contribution, not to ntion, he watched tenderly, like a curious cat watching its owner who had been busy shoveling poop all day, wondering why they were sleeping at three in the morning instead of playing!
"Get lost, get out, don't show up in front of , I can't be happy when I see you!"
The girl suddenly collapsed, hustling and dragging ng Yu out.
She had struggled for twenty years, got into Penglai University, this aid mission was paving the way for her, she had also trained in various Divine Skill Secret Manuals, and had a trump card, at least a Golden Core in the future, but... comparing people can be infuriating!
Why does this scum have to be in the sa era as ?
Ahhh!
A freak, this guy is a super freak!
...
Ninety days later, the rescue was completed, and ng Yu and the others returned to Supre Star. When leaving, ng Yu t with Zhuge Caihua, and the girl apologized to ng Yu, saying she was sorry for her bad attitude that day, and so on.
The two chatted for a few minutes, and the girl said that once her mission was over, she would definitely take a good vacation to relax. She asked ng Yu if he was free? An amusent planet was under maintenance, and she could go there to have so fun with ng Yu.
While speaking, her face was flushed.
ng Yu looked at her face, and then at her chest... ng Yu firmly denied looking at that, but his silence made the girl sigh and then she left.
Yes, ng Yu had said, he liked Xiong Da.
Yes, she should also focus on her cultivation.
Well, all of this was nothing, just as ng Yu didn't care much about the internship scores Penglai University gave him, nor did he care about the subsequent developnt of Changdong Star, etc. He returned to Supre Star and then... continued on his business trips.
Although so people felt it would upset him, regrettably, they did not know that they would regret that action for the rest of their lives.
Or they might never have a chance to regret it.
