“Girl, why can’t we talk properly? Why did you have to greet me with powerful spells!?” The blond man was soaked in cold sweat.

Hua Yuezhu was surprised. She did not expect the hoodlums nowadays to know magic and be so good at it!

“Die!” Hua Yuezhu did not stop attacking despite her surprise. If an Advanced Spell was not going to do the job, she would use a Super Spell, then!

Zhao Manyan was initially pleased with himself, but his jaw almost fell onto the carpet when he saw a brilliant Star Palace taking shape beside the woman.

What did I even do to her?

“Yuezhu, what are you doing!?” The door swung open behind her, and a tanned face poked out.

“General, this pervert dares to take liberties with a soldier! I have the right to execute him on the spot!” Hua Yuezhu exclaimed.

“Do you think we are still in Beijiang? Not only is your Super Spell going to kill him, it will kill everyone in this building too!” Zhang Xiaohou shouted at her.

Hua Yuezhu did not dare disobey her superior. She canceled the Super Fire Spell, but her chest was heaving with rage, like it was about to burst open.

Zhao Manyan was stunned. Were the prostitutes all Super Mages nowadays?

“Huh? Brother Zhao?” Zhang Xiaohou instantly recognized the man from his eye-catching blond hair and handsome face.

“Zhang Xiaohou!” Zhao Manyan recognized the tanned face too.

(Cough cough!) “Brother Zhao, you never change do you?” Zhang Xiaohou looked at Hua Yuezhu before looking at Zhao Manyan. He immediately realized what had just happened.

“She…” Zhao Manyan pointed at the fierce woman.

“My imperial bodyguard, Hua Yuezhu,” Zhang Xiaohou smiled, and invited Zhao Manyan into his room.

“Goddamn! You’re doing fine! Does our country assign generals such heroic and dashing female bodyguards? I’m joining the army!” Zhao Manyan was so jealous that his drool was about to pour out of his mouth.

Hua Yuezhu’s skin was not as pale as the women living in the city, but her bearing was too unique!

Zhao Manyan remembered Nanyu being a relatively gorgeous soldier, but her beauty was more on the neutral side. Hua Yuezhu might have had an imperious bearing, but it did not affect her charm as a woman. She was taller than many men, too! Not only would it not destroy men’s self-esteem, it would wake up their desire to conquer her.

Zhao Manyan was not the kind to ask every woman he saw on the street to name their price. He had extremely high standards, indicating Hua Yuezhu was a true beauty. Her beauty did not come from the luxurious cosmetics available in a city. She was more like an unyielding flower blossoming in the middle of the wild!

“Yuezhu, he’s my brother. He was just joking with you. Don’t mind it,” Zhang Xiaohou told her.

“Humph!” Hua Yuezhu did not believe it was a joke, and left with her chin in the air.

Zhao Manyan felt awkward. Was his eyesight getting worse, or was he driven by the sperm in his brain?

“Why didn’t you tell us you were in Shanghai?” Zhao Manyan asked him.

“We are only stopping by for two days. We have to leave for our next mission soon, so I was thinking of finding you guys next time. I didn’t expect us to meet here!” Zhang Xiaohou was very excited.

After they had parted ways in the Qinling Mountains, Zhang Xiaohou had been sent to Beijiang. His phone reception in Beijiang was not great, and he had not contacted Mo Fan for a long time.

“Mo Fan even mentioned you to me not long ago,” Zhao Manyan patted Zhang Xiaohou’s shoulder.

“It sounds like Brother Fan has missed me.” Zhang Xiaohou was ashamed. He had not told told Mo Fan how he was doing after he went to Beijiang because of the poor phone service there.

“Yeah, he said that we might hear about your death one day after we woke up. He told me to retrieve your remains if I received the news.”

The feeling of shame in Zhang Xiaohou’s heart vanished.

Beijiang was indeed more dangerous than Qinling Mountains.

Zhang Xiaohou had volunteered to go to Beijiang after eliminating the threat from the Qinling Mountains. He was literally associating with demon creatures and sleeping with them. It was a miracle he had survived his term there!

Mo Fan was not necessarily wrong to say that.

“Are you still a Major General, or a full General now?” Zhao Manyan asked curiously after he recalled Hua Yuezhu’s words.

“Beijiang’s General was slain by a Ruler Hound that had trespassed into the safe zone. I was the acting General for some time. They officially promoted me to a full General after I killed the Hound,” Zhang Xiaohou confirmed.

“Does that mean you have eliminated the threats from both the Qinling Mountains and Beijiang?” Zhao Manyan knew a lot of confidential information, and was familiar with the troubles the military was having. Zhang Xiaohou had relieved some huge pressure from the military’s back by maintaining security at the two infamous places.

“Hehe!” Zhang Xiaohou laughed.

“Impressive! You sure deserve to have an imperial bodyguard like her.”

“Brother Zhao, you should stop having weird thoughts. Hua Yuezhu is the daughter of a famous general. She’s not necessarily weaker than me, she just lacks experience and achievements. She has a lot more potential than me. She’s only been assigned to me so she can climb the ranks quicker,” Zhang Xiaohou said humbly.

“Then you have even more reason to take her down. Oh, I got carried away from talking to you. Come with me, Mo Fan and Mu Bai are up on the rooftop!” Zhao Manyan told him.

“Did they invest in stocks?”

“What are you talking about? They are drinking on the rooftop. The air is fresher there for us to enjoy our drinks. Don’t tell me you can’t drink because you are leaving for a mission soon?” Zhao Manyan asked.

“It’s fine, we are here to buy some tamed beasts and rest for a few days.”

“Oh? Is the military interested in the dragon beasts?” Zhao Manyan raised his brows.

Zhang Xiaohou shook his head.

Heavenly Eagles were the standard tamed beasts for China’s military. The system of breeding Heavenly Eagles was mature. Only those at Zhang Xiaohou’s rank needed a higher-level tamed beast, as the Heavenly Eagles were no longer useful for them.

“I heard several rich countries in the Middle Eastern have already ordered the dragon beasts in huge quantities. The supply isn’t going to meet the demand,” Zhao Manyan told him.

“Brother Zhao, is Brother Fan interested in the dragon beasts, too?”

“We are just looking around. I might consider bidding if they have a nice Inferior Dragon. As for Mo Fan, he used to fancy the thought of having a dragon as a mount, but he hasn’t been that interested lately. He only came to broaden his knowledge,” Zhao Manyan answered.

—

The two had reached the rooftop while they were talking.

The area was open. There was a bar on one side, closer to other buildings. The other side was closer to the sea and had plenty of seats. It was relaxing to have a few drinks while enjoying the sea breeze.

However, Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan had always been free and unconstrained.

They were suddenly in the mood to have a barbecue, so they moved the wooden chairs to the beach and set up a barbecue stand. The smoke had filled the bar, and the number of people had dropped significantly. It was now more like a barbecue stall beside the road.

“Look who I brought!” Zhao Manyan called out.

Mo Fan was fanning the charcoal with a flyer promoting the dragon beasts.. His mouth dropped wide enough to fit a whole chicken wing when he saw Zhang Xiaohou.
