Chapter 318 - This is also too Light! (1/2)

In a bright and spacious room with a large desk…

Du Yu, having pushed the door open gently, sat quietly on the long sofa in the room.

After a moment, Du Hen finally broke the silence. “What do you want to know?”

“Why did you take a stand?” There was an incomprehensible look on Du Yu’s face. “You have taught me not to express my position in advance at any time. And the Qilin is even involved in this matter this time! Then, why did you…”

“Why?” Du Hen, leaning his head against the back of his chair, said with his eyes closed slightly, “The East Asia Military Region is getting old. There are problems in many places. It’s time to fix it. And since Qin Fen has become this opportunity, I can’t let it go.”

To Du Yu’s dismay, he suddenly discovered signs of aging on Du Hen’s face under the faint sunlight coming through the window, shining on Du Hen’s face.

Unexpectedly, Snake King, the pillar of the East Asia Military Region, who was always calm and filled with infinite vitality, was showing signs of aging!

Du Yu rubbed his eyes hard, doubting that what he saw. Nonetheless, he discovered that his father was indeed looking a bit old.

Du Hen heaved a sigh with inexplicable exhaustion. “Xiaoyu, you can’t control the East Asia Military Region.”

Du Yu nodded without speaking. His father had never been wrong, and the same was true this time as well.

“Originally, there was Zhanpeng… but now…” Du Hen opened his eyes, which normally instilled fear, and looked at the sky. He was looking straight at the sky, unaffected by the sunlight. “God knows where Zhanpeng is… we only have one life, we don’t know what the future has in store for us. Nevertheless, the East Asia Military Region would always need a helmsman…”

“Father… you want to… but he is too young… also…”

“Young!?” Du Hen looked at Du Yu with a faint smile. “How old do you think I was when I became the general? Insufficient military merits can be amassed, a weak can be trained, but if someone lacks the courage, then what? As a soldier, we need to be cold-hearted, but we absolutely can’t be cruel…”

Du Yu nodded quietly. Every generation of the federation had a few gifted people who could sweep through their peers easily. But only a few dared to fight against the will of Song Wendong.

“That kid’s character is also good.” Du Hen laughed and said, “Besides, I will not be getting old and useless any sooner!”

Du Yu nodded again, still looking skeptically at his father, who had closed his eyes at the sun again. His words might have sounded reasonable, but there seemed to be something hidden between them. He had not explained completely.

Is it because the military intelligence department wasn’t able to find Qin Fen’s backing?’ Du Yu’s furrow grew deeper. Father even dared to go against Song Wendong because he is afraid of Qin Fen’s backer who he is unable to find for the time being? No! Father doesn’t have any fear, he is just having an indescribable feeling.

Du Yu heaved a sigh. Since father doesn’t want to say anything, I shouldn’t continue to pester him. He got up and walked to the window sill and looked outside, stretching his body. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. Qin Fen came to look for Zhao Huzi? It seems this young man is very clever; he immediately came to inform his superior after doing that troublesome thing.

Looking for the right person! Du Yu slightly nodded in appreciation. The most terrifying things in the world are the people who don’t have eyes. It would be a pity to look for the wrong person. It’s good that he knows who to look for at his young age! Smart!

“Well, kid, it’s like this.” Zhao Huzi slapped Qin Fen’s back with a heavy hand, giving Qin Fen an urge to vomit. “Snake King said that you don’t need to worry about walking on the streets and encountering assassinations like today’s morning.”

Qin Fen didn’t say a word and nodded. The army indeed is a powerful organization. Originally, I thought that this murder would be concealed from everybody. I didn’t expect that immediately after I killed him, everyone could accurately get to the roots of the matter just by analyzing the reports.

Having walked out of the military base, Qin Fen helplessly looked at the two young martial artists before him.

There was no need to say anything. Judging by the look on their faces, it was quite evident that these two were here to challenge him.

“So troublesome…”

Qin Fen didn’t even bat an eye. He quickly ran the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art as the true energy of eight-star level erupted from his body. His military uniform bloated for a moment from the impact of this eruption before deflating ever so quickly thereafter.

The overflowing battle intent of the two young men disappeared like a puff of smoke in the blink of an eye upon perceiving the sudden eruption of eight-star level martial strength. Dumfounded, the two stood gawking at each other. How can we fight this level of strength?

The two sentry guards stared at Qin Fen; their eyes filled with surprise. So the rumors were true? The champion of recruit tournament’s martial arts tournament had indeed reached the eight-star level!

Qin Fen called a taxi and got into it. “Pegasus Fitness Club, please.”

Sitting at the back of the taxi, Qin Fen looked at the GPS in his hand and laughed wryly. I wonder if I will have the chance to use this thing that cost me so much money in the future. It looks somewhat wasteful.

With time and the development of society, fitness clubs had already become an essential part of ordinary families. However, it was still a luxury for Qin Fen.
