Chapter 118 Acting on Behalf of Heaven
It was now night.
Suzhou, Central Research Institute.
Qin Xi slumped into a chair, staring at the pile of ashes on the ground, her face deathly pale, before feeling a wave of nausea.
She killed someone! She actually killed someone!
A single fireball spell instantly reduced the opponent to ashes.
She never expected that she would become so powerful after only a little over a month of cultivation!
Chu Miaomiao sat next to Qin Xi, holding her hand tightly. They had never seen such a horrifying scene before!
Ye Mo was stunned. Gradually, he came to his senses and was surprised that the two girls in the Qi Refining stage had such power.
Seeing Qin Xi's appearance, he immediately guessed that it must be her first time fighting an enemy, so he went forward to comfort her.
"Girl, don't be afraid!"
"This guy deserves to die. He killed many innocent civilians. What you're doing is acting like a hero!"
Ye Mo trembled and dared not approach the two.
He was terrified that if the two girls got scared and threw a fireball at him, things would be terrible.
At that moment, a voice rang out in the hall.
"You've even come all the way to Jiangnan to uphold justice!"
Ye Mo was immediately startled.
A figure had appeared in the hall at some point.
Yun Chen appeared, walked up to Qin Xi, and hugged her in his arms.
Upon seeing Yun Chen, Qin Xi couldn't hold back any longer and buried her face in his chest, bursting into tears: "Waaah, husband!!"
Upon seeing this person, Ye Mo was dumbfounded.
He quickly bowed and clasped his hands in greeting: "Greetings, senior."
Yun Chen ignored him, hugged Qin Xi, his expression softening again. He reached out and wiped the tears from Qin Xi's face, saying, "It's alright, sweetie, your husband is here, everything's alright now."
Qin Xi choked back tears: "I really killed someone!"
She never expected to become so powerful. In her panic, she threw a fireball spell that actually burned a living person to ashes!
Yun Chen gently patted her back and said, "Alright, my dear, what you killed wasn't a person, it was a beast. This guy harmed the common people and deserved to die. You've done justice on behalf of Heaven."
In Yun Chen's arms, Qin Xi gradually calmed down.
On one side, Chu Miaomiao was still pale.
Her face was filled with remorse as she quickly said to Yun Chen, "I'm sorry, Yun Chen, I shouldn't have let Xi Xi come with me!"
Yun Chen didn't blame her. He glanced at the still-operating instruments and asked, "How's your research going?"
Chu Miaomiao nodded and shared her thoughts.
Yun Chen thought for a moment: "Forge battle armor!"
He glanced at the nascent nanosuit, flicked out a burst of immortal fire, and tempered it.
However, these nanomaterials are still not hard enough!
The moment the immortal fire touched it, it turned to ashes.
Yun Chen said to Chu Miaomiao, "These materials won't do!"
Chu Miaomiao asked in surprise, "Then what should I do?"
Yun Chen glanced at his storage ring, took out a pile of immortal gold materials, and instantly ground them into nano-sized particles with his great magic power.
Although they are called nanoparticles, they are actually many times finer than nanoscale materials.
Yun Chen handed these immortal gold particles to Chu Miaomiao.
Chu Miaomiao exclaimed in surprise, "Is this a new nanomaterial?"
Yun Chen nodded, letting her try it out herself.
Chu Miaomiao immediately beamed with joy: "Thank you, Yun Chen!"
Immediately afterwards, she swept away her fear and anxiety and became excited, constantly operating and inputting data at the various control panels.
Ye Mo was left standing there, feeling restless and uneasy.
Yun Chen looked at him, and Ye Mo immediately stood at attention.
"Senior, is there anything you need me to do?"
Yun Chen looked at the pile of ashes on the ground: "Who is this guy?"
Ye Mo truthfully replied, "Senior, this guy was sent from the Fusang Secret Realm!"
He pursued this man from Zhongzhou all the way to Jiangnan, where the two fought hundreds of rounds, their strength evenly matched!
The other party, unwilling to engage in a prolonged battle, fled.
It's been like this until today.
Yun Chen murmured, "The Fusang Secret Realm."
He recalled the young man from the Jiangnan region beyond the Great Wall.
Through the soul-searching of the cultivator named Wang Jingwei, he learned many secrets about the various secret realms on Blue Star.
Some secret realms have long been infiltrated by a group of alien cultivators who have colluded with demons and monsters in an attempt to destroy the ancestral land of China. Those cultivators have already been corrupted by the strange aura.
Ye Mo clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Senior, I have completed all the tasks you assigned me in Spring City last time!"
Yun Chen nodded: "You can go now."
Ye Mo's eyes were filled with conflict.
The next second, he suddenly knelt down before Yun Chen: "Senior, please accept me as your disciple! I want to learn more skills from you!"
Having mistakenly entered the Kunlun Secret Realm, he was only registered under the tutelage of a Golden Core elder, not even a formal disciple. He barely managed to cultivate to the Foundation Establishment stage on his own, which was extremely difficult.
At that moment, he made this decision in his heart.
Yun Chen held Qin Xi's hand and ignored him.
"Can't you understand what I'm saying?"
Ye Mo remained kneeling, unwilling to rise.
Qin Xi looked at the guy kneeling on the ground with a wary expression. At this moment, she finally understood how powerful her husband was!
Yun Chen could see that this person had some talent, so he was relatively patient, but he coldly questioned, "Give me a reason why I should accept you as my disciple?"
After a moment's thought, Ye Mo said, "Senior, I can be the sharpest weapon in your hand. If there's ever a time when it's inconvenient for you to act, I'm always ready to serve you!"
Yun Chen said, "Alright, I'll give you seven days to kill all the traitors, enemy agents, lackeys, and sellouts in both the surface city and the underground city of Suzhou. Come find me here at this time in seven days. If you fail, you'll go back to where you came from!"
Upon hearing the task, Ye Mo gasped. Without hesitation, he accepted it: "I will definitely complete it. I hope you will give me a chance in seven days!"
Although he knew that this was a very large group of people, once he heard that they were traitors, enemy agents, and national sellouts, he was completely relieved and no longer had any psychological burden. Killing traitors, enemy agents, and national sellouts would be a great act of virtue.
Yun Chen hugged Qin Xi, his face tender: "Wife, let's go back first."
Qin Xi nodded, then found Chu Miaomiao.
Chu Miaomiao said with a fervent expression, "Xixi, you guys go back first. I still have some time before I finish, and then I'll move on to the next stage."
Qin Xi said, "Okay, then be careful."
She knew that with her husband there, nothing could happen to Chu Miaomiao, so she left with Yun Chen first.
Yun Chen glanced at Ye Mo: "Also, if she were to be harmed in the slightest, you wouldn't need to live."
Ye Mo nodded: "This junior understands."
Yun Chen took Qin Xi back.
Chu Miaomiao was extremely busy.
"It's done! It's done!"
She finally finished the product around midnight and took out a metal bracelet from the workshop, but all she needed to do was find someone to test it.
Ye Mo sat there cross-legged, recuperating, listening to Yun Chen's words, protecting the girl, worried that something might happen to her.
Chu Miaomiao was very bold. When she saw this guy, her big eyes darted around. Even though she knew he was a cultivator, she wasn't afraid at all. With Yun Chen backing her up, she was full of confidence.
"Hey, come and put this on!"
She stepped forward and handed the bracelet to Ye Mo.
Ye Mo stood up, looking puzzled. He glanced at the girl with the big heart, then at the strange bracelet.
Chu Miaomiao snapped, "What are you standing there for!"
Ye Mo took it, put on the bracelet, inspected it, and activated the battle suit as Chu Miaomiao requested.
Click! Click!
The next second, a large number of immortal gold nanoparticles suddenly appeared from the metal bracelet, instantly covering his entire body, transforming him into a fully armed individual.
Bang it!
As a result, it didn't last long.
The suit exploded on him, and Ye Mo was hit by the backlash, flying backward. The nanoparticles flowed back and were all collected into the metal bracelet.
Chu Miaomiao scratched her head with a worried look: "Oh dear, how could it have failed? Where did I go wrong?"
