“Originally… mine?”

Wang Xiao was stunned when he heard this. Just as he was trying to figure out the meaning behind his words, Qi Lianjun had already left with the other soldiers.

There were only two people left in the huge warehouse.

Zhou Xiruo had also calmed down. She helped Wang Xiao up and asked with concern, “Wang Xiao, are you injured?”

“No, I’m just a little tired.”

Wang Xiao forced a smile and did not continue to ponder over Qi Lianjun’s words. In any case, no matter what Qi Lianjun’s intentions were, obtaining that box of resource balls was a certainty.

Thinking about how he was going to earn three billion star coins tonight,

Wang Xiao immediately felt that the fatigue in his body had lessened a lot. With Zhou Xiruo’s help, he left the warehouse and slowly walked towards home.

Almost at the same time, a handsome young man with slightly flushed skin and a red gem between his eyebrows poked his head out of a clump of weeds dozens of meters away from the warehouse.

After quietly watching Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo’s backs disappear from his sight, the handsome young man walked into the warehouse. He narrowed his eyes and looked around for a moment. Finally, his gaze locked onto the dark purple bloodstain.

“Purple Star people, huh..

The handsome youth muttered thoughtfully, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled into a mocking smile. “Looks like the rumors are true. That trash Andu has indeed failed.”

As soon as he said those words, the handsome youth had already turned around and walked out of the warehouse. Then, the ruby between his eyebrows flashed with a flirtatious red light, and the entire warehouse instantly burned into a raging sea of fire!

In the evening, Kaiyang City.

Wang Xiao, who was overworked, fell asleep the moment he returned home. When he opened his eyes again, the sky was already dark.

The consecutive physical exertion made Wang Xiao’s entire body ache. However, when he thought of the three billion star coins, he gritted his teeth and got up from the bed.

After resting for a while, Wang Xiao immediately went out to the military building. Although Qi Lianjun did not say the exact time, it was better to be early than late. At most, he would just have to wait a little.

With ecstasy in his heart, Wang Xiao’s footsteps became much lighter. Soon, he arrived at the entrance of the military building. Just as he was about to enter, he unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance here!

“Teacher Tian!”

Wang Xiao’s eyes lit up and he hurriedly waved his hand. Tian Gang was coming out of the building. He was stunned for a moment before recognizing him. Then, he walked over with a smile.

“Congratulations.”

“That’s not true. It’s all because Teacher Tian taught me well!”

Wang Xiao flattered him as if he was teasing him. After a pause, he probed, “Teacher Tian, are you here to visit Tian Qiang?”

“Yeah.”

Tian Gang nodded, and a hint of disappointment appeared on his face. “Little Qiang’s treatment has reached a bottleneck. The doctor said that having his family by his side can stabilize his emotions, so Commander Chen asked me to help with the treatment. You’re here to look for Commander Chen, right?”

“Yes… I guess so?”

Wang Xiao gave a half-hearted smile and did not reveal too much to Tian Gang.

It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Tian Gang, but Tian Qiang’s matter had already troubled him enough. There was no need to stress him out more.

Tian Gang’s mind seemed to be elsewhere. He simply nodded when he heard this. “Then go quickly. I’m going back too.”

“Goodbye, Teacher Tian!”

Hearing this, Wang Xiao politely bid farewell. Just as he was about to leave, he was pulled back by Tian Gang.

“By the way, did you see the Academy Head today?”

Tian Gang frowned and asked in confusion, “The academy is holding a celebration tomorrow and the Academy Head will give all participants a reward. However, after the academy’s ranking assessment, we haven’t been able to find the Academy Head.”

“The Academy Head can’t be found?”

Wang Xiao was stunned when he heard this. He suddenly recalled that after the academy ranking assessment ended, it was also the Academy Head of Kaiyang Academy who brought them through the process. Huang Tingwei had never appeared since then.

“Did something happen to the Academy Head?”

An ominous thought appeared in Wang Xiao’s mind, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was unlikely.

When they left the base, Turk did not have the strength to fight back at all. With Huang Tingwei’s strength, he should not be in any danger.

Even in the worst case scenario, if Huang Tingwei really had met with an accident, Qi Lianjun would have said something. At the very least, his attitude in the morning did not suggest that there had been an accident.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiao felt a little more at ease. After some thought, he said, “I didn’t see the Academy Head today. Perhaps he’s busy with something?”

Hearing that, Tian Gang looked a little disappointed, but he still forced a smile and nodded. “Alright, I’ll try to contact him later—go find Commander Chen first. Don’t be late for the academy tomorrow.”

“Alright, goodbye, Teacher Tian!”

After saying goodbye to Tian Gang, Wang Xiao walked into the military building and then went to the commander-in-chief’s office on the top floor.

Logically speaking, Wang Xiao should have gone to look for Qi Lianjun directly. However, Qi Lianjun did not seem to have his own office, and he could not contact his communicator, so he could only come to Chen Jinrong’s place first.

Standing in front of the door of the commander-in-chief’s office, Wang Xiao raised his hand and was about to knock when he suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from inside.

“Chen Jinrong! Aren’t you going a little too far? You summon and dismiss me as you please. What do you take me for? The time I’ve wasted all these years, what do you treat them as?!”

Wang Xiao raised his eyebrows and instantly recognized that it was Huang Tingwei’s voice. Although the volume was not loud, one could clearly hear his anger.

But wasn’t Huang Tingvvei on good terms with Commander Chen? Why were the two of them arguing?

Puzzled, Wang Xiao retracted his hand and looked around to make sure that there was no one. Then, he gently pressed his ear against the door.

“Little Huang, I know you feel wronged, but there’s nothing we can do about it.”

Chen Jinrong’s voice sounded. His tone was as indifferent as ever. “If it weren’t for the special circumstances, I wouldn’t have touched your trump card so easily. Moreover, you didn’t want to open an academy in the first place. Isn’t this perfect?”

“Perfect my ass!”

Huang Tingwei shouted, then lowered his voice. “Yuheng Academy has just ranked first, and you called me back to the army. All my years of hard work are going to others. You call this perfect?”

“The Academy Head is going to be recalled to the army?”

Wang Xiao’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Although he did not have much interaction with Huang Tingwei, this Academy Head had really taught him many things.

It was especially the case during the battle between Huang Tingwei and Turk. Even if Wang Xiao thought about it now, he still felt that he had gained a lot.

Therefore, Wang Xiao had already made up his mind to learn from Huang Tingwei. If he was called back to the army, where else would he be able to find such a good teacher in the future?

Thinking of this, Wang Xiao couldn’t care less about manners. He directly knocked open the door and rushed in.. “No! Academy Head Huang can’t leave!”
