Chapter 531 Don't even think about leaving me alone!
Chapter 531 Don't even think about leaving me alone!
Old Wang instinctively wanted to refuse, but when his gaze met that of the person on the other side of the screen—
Those eyes, a blend of gold and black, calm yet exuding boundless power.
A chill instantly shot from the soles of my feet straight to the top of my head!
That look clearly told him:
If you don't give it, you'll have to bear the consequences!
Old Wang felt a chill run down his spine, and swallowed back the "no" that was on the tip of his tongue.
His eyes darted around, and a troubled, wry smile appeared on his face:
"Vice Commander Lin, as you know, Star Energy Essence is a top-level strategic material."
"If you need it, the alliance will naturally provide full support! It must be provided!"
"But... such a large quantity requires complicated procedures and needs to be transferred from various branch warehouses, which... will take some time to prepare."
As he spoke, Old Wang was secretly making calculations in his mind:
Let's stall for now!
The next time he asks, just say that a meeting is in progress to vote, or that it is still in transit, or that the process is stuck at some point.
Anyway, there are plenty of excuses!
As long as we can get through this month!
When the main star's adjudicator arrives, it's uncertain whether Lin Qiye will live or die...
Lin Qiye was incredibly perceptive and instantly sensed Old Wang's attempt to evade the issue.
His brow furrowed slightly, and the oppressive heat emanating from him seemed about to erupt again.
"How long will it take?"
"I am at a crucial moment in my cultivation now, and I can't afford to wait."
Old Wang feigned fear, wiping his sweat repeatedly, but his tone became even more tactful:
"Well... I can't say for sure."
"After all, the amount involved is enormous, far exceeding my personal authority. I have to follow procedures and convene an emergency vote of the council of elders..."
"But I promise! I'll arrange the meeting right away! I'll coordinate it for you immediately! Is that alright with you?"
Looking at Old Wang's face, a golden light flickered slightly in Lin Qiye's eyes.
He knew that the old fox was hedging his bets and trying to switch sides.
But he didn't lash out on the spot, nor did he utter any harsh words.
He simply gave Old Wang a deep look and uttered three words in a low voice:
"Hurry up."
"beep--"
Communication was cut off immediately.
Inside the cultivation room, Lin Qiye looked at the black screen and smiled coldly.
"As soon as possible?"
"They probably intend to drag this out until the judge arrives."
Lin Qiye could understand Wang Lao's speculative mentality from his perspective.
After all, it is human nature to seek advantage and avoid harm.
but--
Understanding doesn't mean acceptance!
"Since you refuse to give it to me..."
Lin Qiye stood up, his bones cracking and popping, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes:
"Then I'll go get it myself!"
Without any hesitation.
He immediately dialed Lin Yuechan's video call and got straight to the point:
"Teacher Lin, in which warehouse is the Star Energy Essence of the Ten Schools Alliance headquarters stored?"
"Also... with my current deputy commander privileges, can I open it directly?"
Lin Yuechan was stunned for a moment, then her beautiful eyes opened slightly.
"You're out of Star Energy Essence?"
In just a moment, Lin Yuechan realized what Lin Qiye was trying to do.
Take it by force!
That old fox, Wang, must have blocked the supply of star energy liquid because he was afraid of the imminent arrival of the main star's adjudicator.
Lin Qiye clearly needs it now!
Lin Yuechan's heart suddenly clenched.
"Qi Ye..."
Forcibly entering the alliance's strategic warehouse is a taboo at any time.
Once accused of "embezzlement" or even "rebellion," it will inevitably become a fatal weapon for political enemies to attack in the future.
but……
In a flash, the scene she had witnessed in the cultivation room of the villa on the hillside a couple of days ago came to Lin Yuechan's mind.
The empty bottles scattered all over the ground, the almost impenetrable fog of spiritual energy, and the urgent aura of power emanating from Lin Qiye...
He is truly at the most crucial moment in his cultivation and advancement!
Normally, she would definitely stop such irrational behavior.
But the situation is different now.
"If we can't acquire resources now, we won't be able to break through..."
"If we lose when the adjudicator arrives in a month, it will be pointless to take it by force!"
"On the other hand..."
A resolute glint flashed in Lin Yuechan's beautiful eyes.
"If Qi Ye can use this to break through, he will possess enough power to suppress everything!"
"At that point, who will dare say this is robbery? It will clearly be taking!"
"This is how strong individuals rationally allocate resources!"
In this world where martial arts reign supreme, truth always lies only within the realm of attack!
The thought of the "super martial arts will" that Lin Qiye unleashed that day, seemingly capable of burning the heavens, instantly tipped the scales in Lin Yuechan's heart.
Fight!
Lin Yuechan was no timid, submissive woman!
She was all alone to begin with, but now that she has Lin Qiye and is carrying his child, what has she to be afraid of?
They won, and the whole family reigned supreme.
If we lose, then we'll die with this little man!
It's just a warehouse; even if the sky falls, she'll hold it up for him!
Thinking of this, Lin Yuechan spoke quickly and firmly without any hesitation:
"Qi Ye, listen to me."
"Proceed immediately to Top Secret Backup Vault No. 3. I'll send you the coordinates now!"
"Wait for me there, I'll go in with you!"
On the other end of the video call, Lin Qiye felt the determination and protectiveness in Lin Yuechan's tone, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.
He smiled gently and shook his head in refusal:
"Teacher Lin, I can do this dirty and tiring work by myself."
"You're under special protection right now, so stay in your dorm and rest during your pregnancy. Don't get involved in anything else."
"No!"
Lin Yuechan's voice suddenly rose, carrying an undeniable force:
"You have no idea how things work out!"
"That's the Alliance's highest-level strategic arsenal, equipped with extremely sophisticated biometric and defense systems!"
"Although your current position is deputy commander, given the current situation, if you force your way in, there's a high chance you'll immediately trigger the highest-level alarm!"
"When the defense system activates and the whole city is notified, you'll really become a burglar!"
"Only with my presence and by using my vice-principal authority can the previous levels be legally opened without triggering an alarm!"
At this point, Lin Yuechan paused, her tone softening, yet still carrying a hint of stubbornness:
"Qi Ye, don't reject me."
I know you want to protect me.
"But I also want to...do something for you."
Lin Qiye stared at the stunningly beautiful woman on the screen with a determined look in her eyes, and remained silent for two seconds.
Finally, he sighed softly:
"All right."
"Then... thank you for your hard work, Teacher Lin."
This affection is profound.
Since we can't avoid it, then... let's shoulder it together!
……
As night falls, the neon lights of Terra City paint the sky with a mesmerizing purple hue.
Suburbs, No. 3 strategic material reserve.
On the surface, this is an ordinary abandoned factory located in a military restricted area.
The area was overgrown with weeds, and rusty barbed wire fences were laid out in circles.
"Buzz—"
The air was slightly distorted.
Lin Qiye's figure appeared silently in the shadows at the factory gate.
Just then, a black hovercar without any markings slowly emerged from the darkness and stopped in front of Lin Qiye.
The car window rolled down, revealing two faces whose stunning beauty was still undeniable even in the darkness of the night.
It was Lin Yuechan and Si Qingwan.
Lin Yuechan rolled her eyes and said, "She definitely wants to come along too."
After saying that, Lin Yuechan's pretty face turned red.
Why use the word "also"...?
Si Qingwan glared at Lin Qiye and said, "Don't even think about leaving me alone! Get in the car!"
