Breakthroughs can be achieved while sleeping? That's terrifying!

At this very moment.

Lin Yuan, lying on the chair, seemed to have slept enough.

He lazily stretched.

Then, he slowly sat up.

He glanced at the two people standing at the courtyard entrance like wooden stakes, and frowned impatiently.

"Sigh, they're here again..."

"Seriously, every single day, can't a person just have a quiet afternoon nap?"

He muttered.

Immediately after, under the dazed gazes of Lin Jianguo and Xiao Zheng.

The Qi inside his body...

Changed.

Boom—!!!

A vast and majestic Aura suddenly erupted from his body, soaring straight into the sky!

But strangely.

This Aura did not spread outward at all.

Instead, it was perfectly confined around Lin Yuan's body, as if plating him with a layer of golden radiance, making Lin Yuan look even more majestic.

At the same time.

The rolling Qi Sea within Lin Yuan could no longer be contained.

Like the most violent prehistoric beast, it stirred up monstrous waves and erupted completely.

The final barrier of his Realm.

Was also completely shattered by that endless, terrifying tide!

Qi Sea Realm Ninth Level!

Breakthrough!

Meridian Opening Realm First Level!

Meridian Opening Realm Second Level!

Meridian Opening Realm Third Level!

...

Xiao Zheng's eyes widened abruptly.

His eyeballs were almost popping out of their sockets!

What did he just see?!

Continuous Breakthroughs?!

How is this possible?!

However...

This was just the beginning!

Boom! Boom!

Two more dull, booming sounds like a heartbeat!

The Aura that had been climbing steadily, after a brief pause, surged again!

Meridian Opening Realm Fourth Level!

...

Meridian Opening Realm, Fifth Level!!!

Only then.

Did the terrifying Aura finally slowly subside.

The entire backyard was deathly silent.

Lin Jianguo, even as the Great General Protecting the Nation who had seen many storms, was dumbfounded at this moment, his jaw almost hitting the ground!

He knew his son was a monster!

But he didn't know.

His own son had actually reached such an outrageous level of monstrosity!

And Xiao Zheng, standing to the side, was already petrified on the spot!

His mind was blank!

All the blood in his body seemed to have completely frozen at this moment!

Before he came, he had imagined ten thousand scenarios of meeting Lin Yuan, but he had never imagined this one!

...

Lin Yuan, the perpetrator of all this.

Just yawned again and rubbed his sleepy eyes.

He looked at the two dumbfounded men and spoke helplessly: "What are you looking at? Haven't you seen someone sleeping before?"

Xiao Zheng: "..."

Lin Jianguo: "..."

The air seemed to be tightly gripped by an invisible hand.

It completely solidified.

Xiao Zheng's stern face, which rarely smiled, was completely frozen at this moment.

The shock in his eyes could no longer be described in words.

It was a kind of extreme bewilderment, as if his worldview had been smashed to pieces, trampled underfoot, and ground over seventeen or eighteen times.

Just by taking a nap...

He went from the Peak of the Qi Sea Realm, rocketing all the way to the Meridian Opening Realm Fifth Level?!

This f*cking...

Is he even human?!

Before coming today, he had imagined countless possibilities.

He thought Lin Yuan might be an arrogant, unruly Genius.

He also thought he might be a deep-thinking, calculating young hero.

But he never dreamed that the future hope of Dragon Xia Kingdom, whom he was about to recruit, would be such a...

Lazy in such a righteous way, lawless and arrogant...

Monster!

"Ahem!"

In the end, it was Lin Jianguo who first recovered with difficulty from that petrified state.

He glared fiercely at his rebellious son.

Then, he turned his head and squeezed out a smile, uglier than crying, towards Xiao Zheng, whose soul had long since left his body.

"Um... General Xiao."

"I've let you see a joke."

"My son... he... he's not usually like this."

Even he felt this explanation was pale, weak, and unconvincing.

Xiao Zheng took a deep breath, then another deep breath!

His chest heaved violently, as if he wanted to exhale all of that shock from his body.

He forcibly suppressed the raging waves in his heart.

As a soldier, his strong mental fortitude allowed him to barely maintain his composure on the surface.

He solemnly gave a standard military salute to Lin Yuan.

"Lin Yuan... student."

He had wanted to address him as "Young Master", but when the words reached his lips, he felt it was inappropriate.

In the end, he chose this most ordinary form of address.

"I am Xiao Zheng, Commander of the Third Army of the Dragon Xia Kingdom Northern Suppression Legion."

His voice was still steady and powerful.

However, the slightly trembling corners of his eyes betrayed his extremely unsettled inner emotions at this moment.

Lin Yuan finally deigned to move his gaze from his old man to the face of this uninvited guest.

He lazily lifted his eyelids.

"Oh."

One word.

He didn't bother to say even one more word.

The corner of Xiao Zheng's mouth twitched imperceptibly.

He resisted the urge to punch him and continued.

"I have come today to represent the military department and the Marshal himself to formally invite you to join the Dragon Xia Kingdom military!"

Having said that.

He straightened his chest and stared burning at Lin Yuan.

The majesty and Aura belonging to an iron-blooded general were unconsciously emitted.

He believed.

No hot-blooded man of Dragon Xia Kingdom could refuse this supreme honor!

However.

Lin Yuan just picked his ear.

Then, with a look of disgust, he flicked the earwax he had dug out away.

"Not going."

Two more words.

Crisp.

Decisive.

Without a shred of hesitation.

It was as if Xiao Zheng's impassioned invitation, in his ears, was no different from someone on the roadside selling a gym membership.

"Wh... why?"

Xiao Zheng was completely bewildered.

This script isn't right!

According to the normal process, shouldn't the other party be flattered, then make some modest refusals, and then he would reason with them and appeal to their emotions, and finally they would gratefully agree?

How come when it gets to him, he just rejects it directly?!

"Why?"

Lin Yuan looked like he had heard some huge joke.

He slowly straightened his body up from the grand chair and looked Xiao Zheng up and down with the gaze of looking at an idiot.

"Join the army? Go to the barracks and eat sand?"

"Having to crawl out of bed before dawn every day, doing some devilish training, and having to follow a bunch of messy rules?"

"Do you think..."

He pointed to himself, smiled, and asked back, "Do I look like the kind of person who would make things difficult for himself?"

Xiao Zheng: "..."

He opened his mouth.

But he found that he couldn't refute a single word.

This reason...

Although it sounds shameless to the extreme!

But yet...

It's f*cking very reasonable!

Lin Jianguo, on the side, couldn't bear to watch anymore.

He silently turned around.

He looked up, gazing at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle.

He was afraid that if he kept watching, he wouldn't be able to help but clean house on the spot.

Xiao Zheng was not reconciled!

He had come with the Marshal's highest order!

If he went back just like that, how could he continue to mix in the military department in the future?
