Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress - Chapter 274
Chapter 274: Who Are You?
Su Huiqing was still standing there, looking at the man and woman slowly walking down the stairs. To be precise, she was looking at the woman in red.
For a moment, even she was in a trance. This face was very similar to her past self.
At the same time, Apollo and the others squeezed in front of Chi Yue’s computer.
Chi Yue stared at the face that appeared on the computer screen. His hand that was typing on the keyboard froze.
Apollo was different. He had never seen Su Huiqing in person before. He only placed his hand on the table and raised his eyebrows at Chi Yue. “How is it?”
“Seventy percent.” Chi Yue finally snapped out of his trance. He pushed his glasses, and his eyes turned cold. “If it wasn’t for confirming the identity of the captain, I would have suspected her.”
“So alike?” Apollo was shocked. He looked at the person on the screen, but there was no resemblance between her and Su Huiqing. Although he was puzzled, he didn’t ask anything.
“It’s not just ‘alike’…” Chi Yue tightened his fingers and covered the keyboard once again. He searched for the word ‘Ling Jun’ on the international search engine.
This time, the news on the screen was different from before.
This was Dugu Yusheng’s personal database. Even if they searched for information on Unknown Island, there were still traces.
However, once he searched the words ‘Ling Jun’, the entire screen turned golden. There was no news at all!
Chi Yue’s expression turned even more serious.
This time, even Apollo concealed his casual expression. He looked at the head of the Ye Family on the screen, who greeted Ling Jun respectfully. “Why haven’t I heard of this person before?”
“I’m afraid that these chiefs are hiding a lot from us!” Chi Yue closed his laptop. He took her phone and called Dugu Yusheng while walking towards the door.
Behind him, Apollo stared at Chi Yue’s back view and was momentarily stunned. He immediately followed suit.
At the International Association’s training grounds…
Su Huiqing retracted her gaze from the woman in red, lowered her head, and continued putting on her earphones. She silently spat out two words. “Su Chen.”
Su Chen, who was surrounded by everyone, suddenly felt a chilly gaze. She raised her head and looked at the crowd, but she didn’t notice anything.
“What’s wrong?” Ling Jun could not help but ask in a low voice.
Su Chen smiled. “Nothing.”
“Your Highness Ling Jun, you have come from afar. We have already arranged a place for you.” The Yu Family Head was also very respectful.
Ling Jun’s entire person had a rare coldness. He nodded slightly at the Yu Family Head and was about to head downstairs when he suddenly thought of something. His eyes squinted and asked, “I heard that the successor of the purple-gold badge appeared at the Yu Family in the International Association. May I know if he is here?”
“Our Young Master went overseas for something yesterday.” The Yu Family Head’s voice remained impassive.
“Overseas?” Ling Jun glanced at the Yu Family Head.
A look of shock flashed past his handsome face.
The family head did not know why Ling Jun was so shocked. He stood there with a sharp glint in his eyes. Luckily, Ling Jun retracted her gaze in the next second and scanned the group of young disciples below.
The blue-robed servant beside him saw Ling Jun’s interest and immediately said, “Master, these are the younger generation of the International Association.”
“The younger generation?” Ling Jun retracted his gaze and walked down with his hands behind his back. He was not overly concerned. “They are still too weak.”
Sensing his contemptuous gaze, Dugu Heng frowned.
However, the people from the other families felt that it was only right. Even Ling Jun’s followers could instantly kill a few of their family heads. It was not a big deal for the younger generation to be looked down upon. After all, they were indeed inferior to them.
“Your Highness Ling Jun, Miss Su, please.” The Yu Family Head led the way.
“No need.” Ling Jun patted his sleeves and led Su Chen down the stairs. “Let’s go to Unknown Island first.”
The Su Family of Unknown Island…
Everyone stood respectfully on both sides.
A few priests in white robes and white hair looked at Su Chen in satisfaction. “Miss, it’s good that you are back safely.”
Su Chen glanced at Ling Jun.
Ling Jun smiled and nodded at her.
Only then did she take a deep breath. Her eyes were slightly red as she chatted with the elders. Suddenly, she looked up at the elders. “Elder, where are my grandfather and High Priest?”
“Missy, we are useless…” Upon hearing her words, everyone knelt on the ground with a thud. “After you left, an outsider stole your long rainbow! He even turned the High Priest into a half-dead person! The Old Master is still lying on the hospital bed!”
“An ordinary person stole your Missy’s weapon.” Ling Jun paused for a moment and looked directly at the person who spoke. “Why did that person snatch your weapon? Or perhaps, you are all cultivators and cannot snatch it back?”
“That’s right… the other party has a powerful background. We can’t afford to offend him.” After a long while, someone finally spoke up.
“Who is it?” Su Chen frowned.
The Su Family of Unknown Island was no match for an ordinary person?
It was related to the Dugu Family, and there was also the terrifying Yu Shijin. The priest who spoke also knew that the Su Family was the one who seized this matter and was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
Seeing their reaction, Su Chen didn’t continue questioning them. Instead, she said, “Alright, where is Grandpa? Bring me to him.”
The Su Residences of Unknown Island was located at the edge of Unknown Island. It was not in the center.
Ling Jun watched as Su Chen led a group of people towards the door in a hurry. His gaze hardened slightly, and the blue-robed man beside him frowned. “Master, Miss Su is the Island Master of Unknown Island. Why is the Su Family living at the borders? Doesn’t it look like they are not being valued?”
Upon hearing that, Ling Jun didn’t speak and just lit a cigarette with a faint smile. The smoke covered his expression.
…
Inside the house…
Su Chen knelt by the window and looked at the skinny old man on the bed with bloodshot eyes. “Grandpa, I am late…”
“Chen’er, it’s good that you are back.” The old man held Su Chen’s hand tightly. “The Su Family will still depend on you in the future!”
Su Chen nodded, took out her phone, and showed it to the person on the bed. “Grandpa, have you seen the news? I am with His Highness Ling Jun now. Do you know His Highness Ling Jun? He is now the God’s envoy of the Void Island. As long as he is around, it will only be a matter of time before we return to the Void Island. Do you see that?!”
“The Void Island?” The old man hurriedly grabbed Su Chen’s hand and widened his eyes in surprise. “Are you sure he is from the Void Island or the Oracle? Chen’er, how did you meet him?!”
Perhaps because he was too agitated, the old man was incoherent.
“Grandpa, I never told you that I am actually the captain of Unknown Island.” Su Chen lowered her eyes and smiled.
“Good! That’s great!” Overwhelmed with surprise, the old man’s illness recovered by half.
He leaned against the head of the bed and looked at Su Chen with gratification in his eyes. He grinned widely. “I knew it! I knew it! I didn’t choose wrongly. You are indeed much better than that useless piece of trash! Back then, choosing you was the best decision I made in my life!”
The violence hidden deep within his heart suddenly disappeared when he saw Su Chen.
Yes, he did the right thing. He did the right thing.
Su Chen consoled the old man before leaving.
“Miss Su, since you have returned to the Unknown Island, you should hurry and meet the members of the Rapid Fire Mercenary Regiment.” The blue-robed man beside Ling Jun smiled when he saw Su Chen coming out. “I am from the Void Island. I have long known the lunatic organizations on the battlefield.”
“I disappeared for a year. I wonder if these people are still on Unknown Island…” Su Chen smiled bitterly.
“How could that be?” The blue-robed man brushed his sleeves. “Mr. Chi Yue has always been at Unknown Island, waiting for you to return.”
Su Chen paused and glanced at Ling Jun. In the end, she could only grit her teeth and nod.
…
Unknown Island entrance…
It was still a row of people holding the most powerful particle gun.
Countless lights shone in the sky, keeping their promise and protecting Unknown Island.
When they saw Su Chen’s group, a row of people pointed their particle guns at Su Chen’s group. Their voices were extremely cold. “Who are you?”
