54: The future will always come!

Cui Hu would grow through battle.

This was an implicit attribute brought by official restraint.

Meanwhile, Ye Su transformed through blood.

This was the reward for accepting the cruelty of global professions early on.

The supernatural world.

Stepping into it means blood; there's nothing wrong with that!

Therefore, between life and death, in scenes where blood splattered, Ye Su's growth was the fastest.

The long saber swept through black and red Qi.

The roar of a giant beast echoed in his ears.

A massive saber light slashed out directly, bringing a terrifying visual impact.

Besides that, it possessed astonishing destructive power.

Saber Qi crisscrossed within it; those near the saber light seemed to hear the sound of their own flesh tearing.

Yes.

This was a large-scale AOE damage move.

This single strike.

Was enough to suppress the entire field.

The beast tide behind was cowed by the roar of the giant beast and unexpectedly stopped in its tracks.

Low growls continuously came from deep within the Shennong Forbidden Zone, seemingly urging the beast tide forward to slaughter.

However.

The beasts within the tide ultimately feared their instincts.

It was as if that small figure in front was also an inviolable King Beast.

As for those Professionals.

They were already dumbstruck, their mouths dry.

Once their momentum dissipated, extreme fear emerged from the heavy scent of blood.

The empty promises painted by the higher-ups suddenly lost their appeal.

No matter how good the promises were, they weren't as important as their lives.

Liu Qiao's throat twitched with difficulty, trying to moisten his parched mouth, before he cautiously backed away.

He was going to run!

The matter was hopeless.

He had thought this operation would be a walk in the park, that they would face a weakened Ye Su and others.

But he hadn't expected.

The current Ye Su was even more fierce than during the previous martial arts competition.

He simply wasn't human!

His strength had already surpassed everyone else's, reaching a truly unique level.

Unless an official lethal weapon was used to assassinate him.

Otherwise, with the weapons in their hands, it was impossible to contend with him.

How could he be such a freak?

There's no way to play this!

Turning around abruptly, Liu Qiao fled immediately.

This turn was like a sandcastle on a beach being washed away by the tide; the situation collapsed instantly.

The Professionals who were still in shock turned and fled immediately.

Those who snapped out of it finally made the most correct choice after their lives were threatened.

"Don't stop!"

"Keep killing!"

Ye Su's cold voice rang out.

Having accepted the supernatural world early, Ye Su's mind worked quickly.

He knew what was going on.

After the leader signed that document, it signified the attitude of the higher-ups;

Civilization was the most important thing; everything else was a minor matter.

Under such an attitude.

Naturally, some people among the higher-ups would have their own ideas.

Seeking survival amidst controversy has always been a characteristic of Great Xia.

Thus.

Many voices appeared.

They held various ideas and followed their own models to combat the crisis of civilization.

Including but not limited to;

Assassination, contention, plundering, conspiracy, scapegoating, monopoly—and himself.

After exchanging his Great Merit for Suzhou and Hangzhou, Ye Su, who was destined to become a power in his own right,

Had to show his own style in every conflict.

And that was: if you come to provoke me, then be prepared for death!

'The most troublesome things in the Early Stage are plants and animals.'

This was what the Letter from the Future said.

Then...

In the Middle Stage and even the Late Stage, the most troublesome thing would likely include 'people' as at least one category.

My future self was actually quite euphemistic!

"Ye Su!"

Cui Hu shouted in surprise.

He considered the big picture; at this time, Professionals were very precious.

"Don't be a pushover," Ye Su responded;

"Don't forget, if global professions continue, it will surely be a chaotic era!"

Cui Hu was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

He wasn't as 'mature' as Ye Su, but fortunately, he wouldn't refuse to grow.

The slaughter continued.

Ye Su's ruthlessness was displayed to the fullest.

Some Professionals even fled into the Combined Arms Brigade camp, but they were still caught by Ye Su and killed on the spot!

The soldiers' eyes were mostly filled with shock.

This was the gap between two worlds.

In less than half an hour.

All the Professionals who had come to snatch the Opportunity were killed.

The beast tide, meanwhile, did not dare to cross the line at the front.

Covered in blood, Ye Su stood at the camp, looking at the flickering shadows on the front line.

He also heard the roars from deep within the Shennong Forbidden Zone.

"Roar all you want... sooner or later I'll drag you out and slaughter you!"

He muttered.

Ye Su turned back.

"Things are settled, let's get ready to go back."

Ye Su said to Cui Hu and the others upon returning to the camp.

The soldiers brought over some water, and several of them were washing the blood off their bodies.

Guan Li and the others' hands and feet were trembling slightly.

This battle had truly reached their limits.

Fortunately, it was mostly directed at Ye Su, since the burden was on him.

Otherwise, the team might have suffered casualties.

"Okay."

Cui Hu said;

"Then that willow branch..."

Ye Su grinned;

"I'll take it to Suzhou and Hangzhou; you have Director Zhang fly over."

Cui Hu thought for a moment, then replied;

"Okay."

And so.

Each went their separate ways.

---On the plane, Mo Xiaoyu sat in her seat and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Today was another day full of incidents.

Fortunately, they could go back now.

"Xiaoyu."

Ye Su suddenly spoke.

Mo Xiaoyu turned her head;

"What is it, Captain Ye?"

"You did well today."

Ye Su smiled.

Mo Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded;

"Mhm!"

A person with a receptive personality would feel great satisfaction after being recognized by others.

But it also showed that this supportive Professional was gradually gaining Ye Su's recognition.

After comforting Mo Xiaoyu.

Ye Su stroked his backpack.

'I wanted to develop quietly, but I didn't expect to inadvertently touch upon more and more secrets.'

'I actually touched upon Great Xia's Late Stage plans.'

'Breaking up the whole into parts, rekindling the sparks.'

'Good heavens...'

'Will the future really be like this?'

'I'm a bit confused now.'

'Why hasn't the Letter from the Future appeared yet? I need some answers.'

Ye Su rubbed his temples.

Great Xia was full of talented people.

And the higher-ups were a bunch of old foxes.

There must be some big shots laying out plans here; it's hard for me to fully understand.

Besides, I'm not some master strategist.

To prevent being used as a pawn.

Ye Su needed the cheat code that was the Letter from the Future to obtain information.

Only, he didn't know when the next letter would arrive.

---By the time they returned to Suzhou and Hangzhou, it was already late.

After getting off the plane, Ye Su personally delivered the backpack to the Research Institute.

On the way, he saw many people selling roses along the street.

"This is..."

"Captain Ye, tomorrow is Valentine's Day."

Mo Xiaoyu said.

Oh, right.

Today is February 13th.

It's been about ten days since the Beginning of Spring.

These ten days felt like a lifetime.

But for the people of Suzhou and Hangzhou, the world hadn't turned upside down.

They celebrated holidays as they should and went to work as they should.

He just didn't know how long this peace could last.

The future will always come.
