Chapter 510 - Touch of a New Life! Blissfulness (1/2)

In Shenyang military, there was a bulwark which constituted of the most stringent protection regardless of the weather, be it snow or rain. It protected East Asia’s most elite military commander.

Qin Fen stood in front of the military headquarters that he once deemed familiar to him. He suddenly came to a realization that he did not really fully understand this existence that was akin to a war fortress.

He once thought that the mighty Snake King would be the biggest umbrella that offered limitless support, protecting the loved ones from any hardship. However, reality proved that he did not understand Snake King’s cold-bloodedness.

It seemed distanced. Qin Fen was unfamiliar with the people in this fortress and even the fortress itself.

The guard standing in front of the door looked at Qin Fen’s lieutenant colonel pin on his shoulder. Then, he glanced at the young men beside Qin Fen. He was slightly surprised; his body trembled slightly. There was a hint of disbelief in his gaze. A lieutenant colonel around twenty years old was once not considered the youngest legend. However, after the death of the legendary Colonel Zuo Lin and the resignation of another legendary Colonel Xing Wuyi, the legendary soldiers of the East Asia Military Region were completely replaced.

Qin Fen! The recruit from the tournament who attained the championship title of multiple events! The rumored superb young martial dao master who killed two martial dao masters, Bae Seong-Joon and Kyokushin Kouten, in one day!

“Hello… ”

The guards were too excited and even forgot to salute. They leaned their body aside and gestured an invitation to enter.

Qin Fen gently nodded back. This was his first time entering the military headquarters without returning a military salute. Although he had the military lieutenant colonel pin on his shoulder, his heart was no longer in the military. If he had not made a deal with Snake King in exchange for Mourad, he would’ve never appeared in this place again.

Whenever Qin Fen thought of Snake King, there came a thorn in his heart. He could’ve obviously gone against the order involving Gun King that day, but Snake King actually let it go. This thorn did not disappear as time went by. It just hid itself. The hidden thorn quickly surfaced when he once again saw the military headquarters.

It was normal for many people to forget a lot of things in half a year’s time. There were not many people who had met Qin Fen in the military headquarters. They all looked at Qin Fen, baffled, and wondered where this group of young people came from. The aura they produced with their walking was beyond the small pins on their body. The sharp aura of power was hidden in their bodies, but it could still be felt clearly by other people.

Through the streets and buildings that he knew well yet was unfamiliar, Qin Fen walked into the echoing hallway and reached out to open a thick and hidden door.

There was no ‘reporting in’ and no standard military salute. Qin Fen stood quietly at the door and looked at Snake King, whose body was blocked by his desk.

It wasn’t about the lack of politeness but when Qin Fen meets someone he didn’t want to face, he would not bother being polite with them. At this moment, it was with the greatest self-control he had to resist the urge to greet Snake King with punches.

Entering the room, Qin Fen turned to look at a corner of the room and nodded slightly. It was a ‘Shadow’! The ‘Shadow’ which once protected Qin Fen and the others in Tianbei City. He had never forgotten about this kindness.

There was a melancholy sigh full of helplessness.

In the corner of the room, a sigh was uttered from the ‘Shadow’ that never spoke and silence returned very soon.

Qin Fen turned to look at Snake King again, “General Du, I will honor the promise of that day.”

Du Hen assessed Qin Fen, then Xue Tian, and then group around him as he nodded slowly. For the very first time, the cold eyebrows carried a more intense desolation, as if sighing for pity.

In just half a year, Du Hen never expected that Qin Fen and this group of young people’s marital dao progress would not slow down even the slightest bit, but rather continued to move forward at an even faster speed.

“Excellent.” Du Hen’s finger was on the side of the badge. The badge was about five centimeters in diameter. The metal badge spun quickly in the air before it fell onto Qin Fen’s palm, “The order for your taking over of Saturn’s military headquarters has been issued. This is the identification mark you can use to take over Saturn.”

Qin Fen looked at the badge in his hand. It was the logo of the Federation on the front and Snake King’s snake emblem on the back. There was no more Zuo Dongting in East Asia now. Snake King’s authority had expanded a lot. Almost the entire East Asia Military Region was in his hands, even though other military regions had considerable strength. After all, other military regions had the same forces as Zuo Dongting and Snake King. They did not dominate a military region like Du Hen. The weight of his speech had imperceptibly increased a lot.

“Anything else you want to say?” Qin Fen collected the badge in a professional attitude. The relationship between the two sides had completely vanished with the lack of action in Gun King’s death.

Du Hen looked at Qin Fen with no expression. No one knew if East Asia Snake King’s mood right now was happy or sad. He said faintly, “I have heard the words: ‘a general in the field is not bound by the orders from his sovereign.’ Although Saturn’s military headquarters migrated from Earth, over time, there may be situations in which they will not obey you completely. You can do whatever you want when you go over. You don’t need to be concerned.”

Qin Fen nodded. “What else?”

Du Hen’s gaze crossed Qin Fen and stayed on Du Peng. His pair of snake eyes had a shimmering cold cover it. At this moment, there were quite a number of descendants under the ‘Du’ name. Among them, there were also great talents discovered after conducting various tests. If he could keep Du Peng’s talent, then when the next generation reached the age of eighteen, this talent…

A sudden murderous intent filled Snake King’s office, Du Hen’s eyes suddenly became brighter. The pupils flashed a hint of vigilance. The murderous auras of these young people were so saturated that it could almost directly kill someone. It seemed that it would take a lot of effort to retrieve Du Peng in the future.

“Your spaceship can take off at any time.” Du Hen waved his hand, “You can depart to Saturn from Quanzhou, Xichang.”

“General Du.” Qin Fen turned at the door and threw a cold warning, “Some things can be thought of, but it is best not to do it. The price is really big.”

Du Hen looked at the back of Qin Fen who was leaving. His fingers tapped on the table with a pair of lonely eyes hidden under his calm face. No one knew if he regretted not saving Gun King on that day, or if he was having other thoughts.

“Qin Fen…”

In the hallway, Zhao Huzi, who was seen after half a year, seemed a lot more pallid. Compared with the temperament he had back then, he had a lot less aura. There was an apparent hint of old age on his face. He looked at Qin Fen with complicated emotions.

Once upon a time, Zhao Huzi and Qin Fen were brothers. Now, he felt alienated from Qin Fen.
