Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In an empire on which the sun never sets.

A man looked at the report on the Seventh Fleet and asked in disbelief, “This was done by one person? Are you certain about this report?”

The middle-aged man in front of him pushed the gla.s.ses on the bridge of his nose and said in a serious tone, “Yes, it’s indeed true from the information we have received. Although I’m very suspicious, after the impossible has been ruled out, there’s only one truth!”

“Leave this report here and continue with your investigation. I want to know everything about this person in detail.”

A certain soldier in Russia.

“Although I’m very happy that our arch-enemy is under immense pressure, what I want to find out about is something realistic, not a report on an alien invasion.”

It could be said that the unconventional president of their arch-enemy was currently under immense pressure.

The congress needed an explanation from him while the people supporting him were also urging him to do so.

The temptation of this biomedical technology was too enticing!

However, due to this time’s failure, China would definitely be on their guard with their security would even stricter. If they wanted to strike again, the difficulty level would be sky-high.

…

When Ren Baqian was bidding farewell to Yang Sen, he intentionally got s.h.i.+ Guanglong and the rest to come over.

“In the future, if you guys were to be discharged from the military and have no place to go, do not hesitate to contact me. I have a set of martial arts skills that will let all of you advance another step,” Ren Baqian said to the group of them.

“If there is such a day.” s.h.i.+ Guanglong and the rest didn’t seem to be concerned as they knew that they would probably stay in the military for the rest of their lives.

However, it was Ren Baqian’s last sentence that allowed them to verify their judgement. Those martial arts skills were certainly related to him.

Yang Sen’s face immediately changed. He didn’t expect that Ren Baqian would actually take a fancy to these people.

He was even considering whether or not to send them to be under Ren Baqian’s guidance.

Perhaps it would be a pretty good opportunity.

Still, he was somewhat reluctant. Although these people weren’t born with innate talents, they were still the cream of the crop and selected from millions of soldiers.

This wasn’t a pressing matter, and he would definitely need ample time to think it over.

Although Yang Sen had confidence in these soldier’s loyalties, since the other party dared to make his proposal public, who knew if there were any tricks up his sleeves. The losses would be high if these people didn’t return back to Yang Sen.

After speaking to them and bidding farewell to Yang Sen, Ren Baqian went back to his villa for a good feast before returning to Dayao.

Just when he was about to leave with the empress’s imperial carriage, a silhouette suddenly dashed into Ren Baqian’s arms. As the surrounding environment changed, that silhouette turned into a ray of light and charged into the distance.

During this period of time, a red silhouette appeared to obstruct it, but to no avail.

The empress resentfully landed on the ground. The speed of that little thing was too fast.

First of all, she looked at Ren Baqian with disdain. It was this fellow who had kidnapped her imperial carriage. However, after looking clearly and realizing it was Ren Baqian, she let out a soft gasp.

“Did anything happen?” Straightaway, the empress discovered the changes in Ren Baqian.

That b.l.o.o.d.y stench, as well as that icy-cold murderous aura, couldn’t escape her eyes.

Ren Baqian had never had such a stench emitting from him before.

The empress immediately knew that something must have happened.

She was certain that he didn’t kill only one or two people.

At the very least, it was over 100.

“People had their eyes on me.” Ren Baqian casually smiled while casually sitting on the empress’s imperial carriage. He then asked, “Have you eaten? I haven’t been eating well for the past few days!”

Although he returned to Dayao after filling his stomach for half a day, he still felt that only the food here could make him feel satisfied.

In the past, he used to think that being able to eat nonstop was a blessing.

Only now did he realize that it wasn’t as good as he had thought.

He would feel hungry even when he was having his meals.

If there was anything in this world that was the most torturous, it would be hunger.

The empress instructed one of her subordinates to prepare food for Ren Baqian. After that, she got Hong Luan to bring the wine out and ordered everyone else to stay away before sitting across from Ren Baqian and saying, “Tell me about what happened.”

Ren Baqian smiled and narrated everything that had happened. He highlighted his own heroism as he managed to maneuver under the eyes of over 10,000 soldiers, so much so that they were trembling with fear.

At the end of the story, he extended his hand and a long spear appeared as he said, “The Golden Spear and Metal Chain played a huge role. I have gained a lot from the Golden Spear this time around.”

“It can be considered a blessing in disguise,” the empress said unenthusiastically.

Shortly after, she knitted her eyebrows and muttered in a faint voice, “Although I hope that you can make some progress, it’s still better for you to avoid such things. Look at yourself now. Even though you still look sharp, I’m still a little said. You were the one who showed me the video of the atomic bomb. This time, they were unclear of your strength and lacked preparation. Next time around, you may not have such good luck anymore. They don’t need an atomic bomb. So long as they make adequate preparations, it will be difficult for you to escape unscathed.”

Ren Baqian nodded. The empress was speaking the truth. Deep down, he knew it too.

No matter what, he was still alone.

If the other party wanted to take him down, it would be dangerous if he dragged it out for two days.

The empress looked at Ren Baqian as his gaze flickered. She then continued, “Previously, I thought that your nation would be able to protect you, but now, it seems like it isn’t as easy as I thought.

Your world is very different from ours. It’s impossible for a nation to be completely sealed off even if the inspections are very strict. There is always a loophole.

Previously, it was still alright because someone would cover for you. However, with the things that you have exposed this time, I’m afraid that many other nations have their eyes on you. After all, what you have mastered is too valuable to them. If it were me, I would also be tempted.

Even if your nation takes stricter precautions, it still has it’s limitations. You won’t be able to prevent many others from eyeing you. Furthermore, I’m not constantly by your side, so you will have to be prepared in the near future.”

“It was my mistake for being rash. I was only thinking about what I have mastered and that I was valued by the nation. Now that such a thing has happened, I know that trouble will arise in the near future.” Ren Baqian finally came to a realization. Previously, with his nation s.h.i.+elding him, there was only one country that had their eyes on him.

After this incident, however, it was almost impossible to conceal his ident.i.ty any longer. In the future, there would definitely be more than one nation keeping tabs on him.

The empress drank another gla.s.s of wine, slowly refilled it to the brim, and replied, “Your concerns are also valid. It would be inappropriate if you did nothing as well. Even though I don’t really understand your nation, from the television shows that I watched, there’s always internal strife. It’s very different from Dayao.”

When Ren Baqian heard this, he let go of his thoughts, smiled widely, and said, “Basically, I can’t hide anymore.”

“So it’s not necessarily wrong to say that what you are doing at this moment is wrong. At least there’s still a place where you can take shelter. In some aspects, both you and your nation have the same interests.

Unfortunately, after this incident, your nation is more than willing to help, but they don’t have the power to help unless you go into hiding. Otherwise, they can only help you to get rid of the majority of your enemies. As for those who are thoroughly prepared, you would still have to rely on yourself.

I learned a sentence from one of those television shows: ‘You can never be too prepared in fending off a thief. No matter how prepared one is, you won’t be able to be 100 percent protected,’” the empress said.

“I understand that this is inevitable, but fortunately, I have some self-protection ability.” Ren Baqian smiled. He was definitely unwilling to go into hiding.

The empress paused for a moment and stared at Ren Baqian for a while before saying, “There are some words that I have long wanted to say. It’s just that you grew up in the other world, so you definitely have sentimental feeling and I don’t want to make you unhappy.”

“Please speak, Your Majesty.” Ren Baqian sat up straight.

The empress poured herself a gla.s.s of wine, drank it in one shot, and then refilled her gla.s.s again. Next, she poured Ren Baqian another gla.s.s and toasted him.

Only after this did she decide to say, “What you are doing now makes you seem like you are narrow-minded.”
