1207 She Had Matured! She Isn't A Young Girl Anymore!

They went back to Veblen's laboratory. Di Qi was still lying rigidly on the bed. He looked like a corpse waiting to be dissected.

The only difference was, he was wearing clothes. Normally, corpses would be naked.

Everyone gathered around Di Qi and looked at the poor man.

Wang Teng took out the Xuanyang Soul Restoring Pill and pried Di Qi's mouth open. Then, he stabbed—stuffed the pill in.

Everyone: …

Olivia: ???

"Brother Wang Teng, are you really friends?"

"Don't we look like friends?" Wang Teng asked, sounding puzzled.

Olivia: …

Seriously?

Looking at how rough you were, others might think you were trying to kill him.

"Don't mind the details. If we were not friends, I wouldn't have spent so much effort to refine the Xuanyang Soul Restoring Pill and save him. I'm a grandmaster alchemist. My time and labor are worth at least a few billion." Wang Teng sniggered.

"You can explain it to him personally. I recorded the scene on my wristwatch," Olivia said slyly.

"F**k!" Wang Teng cursed unconsciously.

This girl was indeed sly. He got tricked.

"Are you scared?" Olivia smirked. "I'll delete the video if you make 180 grandmaster-level pills for me."

Silence.

Everyone looked at Olivia in bewilderment. They could almost see the fox tail popping out behind her.

She was surprisingly ruthless.

108 grandmaster-level pills? Did she think they were sweets? How could she even say that number?

"Why don't you be a robber instead?" Wang Teng asked furiously.

"There's no one to rob from," Olivia replied in a seemingly naive tone.

"How smart of you." Wang Teng rolled his eyes. "Well, I'm not going to bring you out again. Don't beg me."

"Huh~" Olivia was stunned. She quickly hugged Wang Teng's elbow. "Don't do that. Brother, I was wrong!"

Moira raised her eyebrow, glancing at their point of contact involuntarily.

Wang Teng immediately felt something soft on his elbow.

WTF!

This girl is growing up well.

She has matured.

I can't treat her like a young girl anymore.

But he still wouldn't relent easily. She would wreak havoc in the future if he gave in.

"Hmph, how can you be wrong? It's my fault. I made a mistake by trusting you." Wang Teng sighed and shook his head dejectedly.

"I…" Olivia didn't know what to say. She was caught off guard.

Oh no, what should I do if Brother Wang Teng doesn't bring me around in the future?

She didn't participate much in this mission, but being able to go on one was a great breakthrough. She found it exhilarating and fun.

She wouldn't have any more chances if Wang Teng ignored her.

"Don't say anything. Let's cut ties here," Wang Teng glanced at her and said calmly.

"Sob… No, Brother Wang Teng. It's my fault. I didn't take a video. I lied. I won't do it again. Sob, I was wrong." Tears welled up in Olivia's eyes, and she burst out crying.

Wang Teng felt helpless.

This wasn't right.

He was the victim, but after she cried, he looked like the bad guy.

Everyone stared at Wang Teng strangely as if he was inhumane.

Why are you bullying a young girl? Seriously?

Wang Teng felt even more frustrated. They weren't implicated, so they didn't care. They were bad guys too.

"Stop crying. I'm just playing with you," Wang Teng said helplessly.

"Really?" Olivia's crying stopped, and her tears disappeared instantly. She asked, "Can I follow you in the future?"

Wang Teng froze, feeling that he got tricked again. He asked, "Why do you want to follow me? It's dangerous."

"It's fun!" Olivia said.

Everyone: …

This young girl was still a child.

How could she say that the defense planet was fun? Was she oblivious or naive?

Erm, they seemed to have the same meaning.

Everyone shook their heads. They felt lucky that this young girl didn't pester them. Who could deal with her?

"Nonsense," Wang Teng scolded softly. "This is a defense planet, not a place to play. Never mind, you'll be brought back soon. Someone in your family will take care of you."

"I don't want to go back," Olivia pouted and said unwillingly.

"That's not for you to decide." Wang Teng gloated.

Olivia blinked and stopped irritating Wang Teng. She was coming up with another plan.

As for Di Qi, some color returned to his face after consuming the pill.

The Xuanyang Soul Restoring Pill melted in his mouth.

This was a good function. Di Qi wouldn't be able to swallow the longan-sized spiritual dan in his state of unconsciousness.

"Wang Teng, when will Di Qi wake up?" General Cameron asked.

"Based on the efficacy of my Xuanyang Soul Restoring Pill, two days." Wang Teng estimated.

"Two days? That's fast." General Cameron was startled. "Looks like your alchemy mastery is extremely high. I should call you a grandmaster from now on."

"Please don't. I'm just a small soldier under you. Don't call me grandmaster. It's not the same system, so we don't have to care about it," Wang Teng replied in a hurry.

If Cameron changed the way he addressed him, their relationship would change too. They would turn from a superior and a subordinate to colleagues of the same rank. After all, grandmasters were the leader in their industry.

This wasn't what Wang Teng wanted.

He still wanted to enjoy the protection of General Cameron. An address was nothing. He didn't need it.

Silence.

No one knew what to say. They found Wang Teng extremely thick-skinned.

How could he say such words without turning red and putting himself in such a low position? Come on, shouldn't you have some face as a grandmaster?

General Cameron glanced at Wang Teng in surprise. This wasn't the reply he expected.

"Are you sure?" he asked.

"Yes, extremely sure. I'm just a small soldier under you. You can direct me around wherever you want. Just remember my military contributions. Wang Teng chuckled.

"So this is what you're after." General Cameron was caught between laughter and tears. "Alright, you will have your military contributions for your future missions. You won't be affected.

"Cough, actually, military exploits are secondary. Most importantly, I want to contribute to the military," Wang Teng coughed and continued righteously.

Everyone: →_→

"Hahaha, you're an interesting brat." Veblen burst out laughing.

He rarely saw someone as honest and unpretentious as him.

Grandmaster Speanburg was stunned at first, but he understood Wang Teng's intention after hearing their conversation. He smiled and kept quiet.

Grandmaster Wang Teng was a unique person. Other grandmasters chose to enjoy a good life in the Secondary Career Alliance. They wouldn't come to the military to suffer.

Of course, their lack of ability was also one of the reasons.

Wang Teng was different. Although he was a grandmaster, his martial arts talent was strong too. His achievements in this field might be higher.

It was understandable why he chose this path.

"Let's disperse since everything has ended. We'll wait for Di Qi to wake up before asking him what happened." General Cameron waved his hand and left immediately. He had many matters to deal with; he couldn't stay much longer.

"I'm going back too. Grandmaster Wang Teng, come and have some tea if you're free," Grandmaster Speanburg said.

"I will." Wang Teng agreed. He loved talking to this grandmaster because he had a way with words.

Wang Teng wanted to leave too, but Veblen pulled him back.

"Young lad, go and deal with the devil ovum now. The faster you get rid of it, the earlier I can study it."

"You're not allowing me to rest," Wang Teng said helplessly.

"Why do you need to rest? You're still young. Are you weak?" Veblen glanced at him.

"… Weak? You're the one who's weak," Wang Teng replied angrily.

"Hey, don't you know how to respect an elder?"

"No. Do you know how to dote on a junior?"

"Junior? You? Please don't be so shameless."

"I'm only 20 years old. I'm not old like you. One of your feet is already in the coffin."

"You… ah, I'm angry!"
