91: Zhou Xing, can't you tell I like you?

The other Chiefs were currently consumed by envy, jealousy, and hatred.

They knew that Bei Chen's request was for Dawn City to strengthen Star City's defenses and upgrade its cultivation rooms, including introducing many more advanced facilities.

Most importantly, Dawn City would provide resources, and Wei Guangming would personally act as a Protector to help Bei Chen enhance his own strength.

This also meant that Bei Chen's own potential would be stimulated once again, making the Law Realm a realistic goal.

“This guy is really strong. I don't know if it's just a feeling, but I always think he's hiding something. Every attack feels like it's being forcibly suppressed, very restrained.”

In a corner of the spectator stands, the trio including Xing Tian gathered once again.

At this moment, Xing Tian frowned and spoke with a solemn expression.

“Indeed, and this guy's control over energy is perfect. If I had to face him, I wouldn't have much confidence.”

Zhuge Chengfeng nodded.

As for Su Li, she didn't speak at this time, but a sharp light continuously flickered in her eyes, clearly showing her interest in Zhou Xing as well.

“Heehee, Uncle Li, he won! He's amazing, right?”

Lin Yue looked as happy as if she were the one who had won.

“Mm-hmm, he's alright.”

Though he wouldn't admit it, Li Peng was actually very surprised internally.

Zhou Xing's performance had greatly exceeded his expectations; the strength he displayed made it hard to find a match among those of the same level.

He would be a good match for his family's Yueer.

However, based on the information he had gathered, it seemed his Yueer's feelings might be one-sided.

“Give him a simple treatment first to stabilize his body. Someone will come to help him fully recover later,”

Elder Tongxuan said on the stage, looking at Zhou Xing.

“Okay.” Zhou Xing nodded, and a beam of Light of Healing landed on Gu Qianjun's body.

Soon, Gu Qianjun's physical injuries were repaired.

In truth, Zhou Xing could have fully restored him, but he wasn't familiar with the guy and had no obligation to do so.

Soon, people came forward to carry Gu Qianjun away to a specialized area for treatment.

At that moment, Zhou Xing's brow furrowed. He felt a gaze filled with slight hostility. He scanned the spectator stands but found nothing.

However, this made Zhou Xing feel a sense of vigilance.

Thinking that Gu Qianjun was from Luo City, could it be Chief Li Qing of Luo City? Or perhaps those guys he had ambushed and eliminated during the first round of testing?

Just as Zhou Xing stepped off the stage and walked toward Qin Yue and the others, he suddenly smelled a familiar scent of gardenia.

This scent made him think of Lin Yue, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

But wasn't Lin Yue in Dragon City?

Turning his head sharply, Zhou Xing saw a silver-haired woman wearing a mask standing in the shadows of a corner, with a middle-aged man in black clothes standing beside her.

Zhou Xing saw a scrutinizing look in the man's eyes.

The reason Zhou Xing knew immediately that it was Lin Yue was the familiar ice crystal pendant on her ear.

His eyes lit up, and he quickened his pace toward her.

In the distance, Qin Yue, who was about to call out to Zhou Xing, frowned. “Who is that woman? When did this guy secretly meet another girl? What will happen if Lin Yue finds out?”

Because they were quite far away, Qin Yue only felt that the woman's silhouette was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't determine her identity.

This scene also attracted the attention of quite a few people.

However, Wei Guangming, sitting at the head of the high platform, smiled slightly, not curious at all.

He had already met the two before. Li Yue was someone he had held as a child, and he had even taken her as his goddaughter.

If Li Peng hadn't contacted him, he really wouldn't have known that his goddaughter was bold enough to sneak into the Xia Kingdom alone.

As for his goddaughter knowing Zhou Xing, he had already investigated that thoroughly.

The two were teammates in the same squad and had a very good relationship.

Moreover, even if they really ended up together, he would support it with both hands.

With Zhou Xing's talent, even a daughter-obsessed father like Li Rui would definitely not stop them.

That was a Genius who had the potential to surpass them in the future and truly become the number one human being.

Of course, for the time being, he would not reveal Zhou Xing's information to others. Even if he were blamed later, he could just push the responsibility onto Commander Jiang Ming.

“Lin Yue? Why did you come to Dawn City? Does the Captain know?”

After confirming it was her, a look of joy involuntarily appeared on Zhou Xing's face.

“Congratulations. I didn't expect you to actually win first place in this selection.”

Lin Yue spoke as she looked at Zhou Xing.

“Heh, it was just good luck!” Zhou Xing appeared very humble.

“You forced out Gu Qianjun's Vacuum Body and you call it luck?” Lin Yue gave a light laugh and suddenly took a step forward. “You're always like this. Clearly you're ridiculously strong, yet you always say it's just luck. Looking back now, you were hiding quite a lot.”

Zhou Xing smelled the familiar gardenia fragrance and couldn't help but rub his nose.

At this moment, Lin Yue took off her mask, revealing her exquisite features.

Looking at her, Zhou Xing felt a sudden, inexplicable nervousness.

“You still haven't told me why you came to Dawn City this time,” Zhou Xing asked suddenly.

“Because I have to go home. I'm not a local of Dragon City, and I came to the Xia Kingdom's Dragon City on my own. This time, my family sent someone to pick me up and take me back.

Let me introduce you. This is my uncle, Li Peng. He is a Peak Law Realm Awakened One.”

Lin Yue playfully introduced Li Peng to Zhou Xing, causing his pupils to shrink.

Peak Law Realm? Non-attribute divinity crystal?

So, Lin Yue had such a significant background.

If just an Elder in her family had Law Realm strength, then there must definitely be Demi-God level existences in her family.

Zhou Xing smiled bitterly in his heart, feeling a wave of pressure.

“Kid, you're very good. Triple-element Fusion, and even with the divinity ability of the god of healing. I think highly of you.”

Li Peng looked at Zhou Xing with a face full of praise.

The scrutinizing look in his eyes had vanished.

Honestly, Zhou Xing was a good enough match for his Yueer in every aspect, but Yueer was someone he had watched grow up; she was no different from his own daughter.

At first, he had also suffered from the common ailment of all fathers.

A father-in-Law looks at a son-in-Law from a completely different perspective than a mother-in-Law.

“Thank you for the praise, Senior!”

Zhou Xing bowed in gratitude.

“Alright, you two youngsters say whatever you want quickly. I'll have to take her and leave in a moment.”

Li Peng knew his presence made him a third wheel, so he consciously gave the two some space.

“My father's name is Li Rui. I've been out for a long time, so I have to return to the City of Vigilance.”

Lin Yue's voice suddenly dropped. “It's just that I might not see you for a long time, and you didn't even contact me... us for so long.”

“From what your uncle said, you're not staying for the rest of the matches?”

Zhou Xing stared at Lin Yue as he asked.

“What's there to see? I came to Dawn City this time just to see you... to see the match between you and the Captain. But the Captain's strength is only at the Initial Control Stage. Making it to the top twenty was already beyond everyone's expectations.”

Lin Yue's face turned slightly red as she looked at Zhou Xing. “My encrypted channel is 3-7-20. Remember to contact me more when you have time.”

Zhou Xing nodded somewhat dully.

“You... you're really a blockhead.” Lin Yue was nearly fuming. She stepped on Zhou Xing's foot, turned, and walked quickly toward Li Peng. Suddenly she stopped, her cheeks flushed. “Zhou Xing, are you really stupid or just pretending? Can't you tell I like you?”

She then quickened her pace and left with Li Peng.
