Chapter 319: Seeking Cooperation!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“You guys, aren’t you… ?” The man’s lips trembled, and his eyes were filled with astonishment. Before he could finish his sentence, a ‘whoosh!’ sound could be heard! The remaining two people were also sliced in half!

“That’s right, we… are back.” A low murmur dissipated in the wind.

If there were other people here, they would definitely be able to recognize their identities! Just like Song Qingsong, they were once famous geniuses of the Federation. All of them had outstanding talents and extraordinary achievements. However, due to their genetic collapse, they had fallen from the clouds and been abandoned by their families, allowing others to bully them.

However, no one knew that Song Qingsong had been keeping in contact with them all this while.

Previously, when Mo Chu had left him alone and mentioned that he wanted to treat this group of people, Song Qingsong had immediately informed them. After a period of medicinal nourishment and nourishment from Spirit Food, they successfully recovered their skills from back then. From then on, they had become the sharpest force in Mo Chu’s hands.

At this moment, the corpses on the ground were neatly cut into two pieces. Fresh blood flowed all over the ground. The corpses were scattered all over the place, and the thick stench of blood drilled straight into people’s noses!

Some of them even had their eyes wide open when they died, unable to close their eyes.

Perhaps it was only when they were about to die that they realized why Mo Chu had chosen such an evasive path, and why he did not show the slightest bit of fear in the face of an attack!

With such a group of people that were comparable to sharp swords in their hands, and with the advantage of a mantis stalking a cicada and an oriole following behind, how could they possibly have the chance to survive?

At this point, the 15 experts sent by the Qiao Family had all been annihilated!

“Miss, how should we deal with these people?” Yi Han asked softly.

An Yihan was once a genius with unparalleled talent in the Federation. The moment he was born, he received widespread attention and was as resplendent as a star! No one had expected that he would suddenly suffer from a genetic collapse. In a single night, the world had changed drastically, and even his surname had been mercilessly stripped away!

Having been accustomed to the cold and detached nature of the world, having experienced the vicissitudes of life, Yihan was now filled with gratitude towards Mo Chu, who had given him a new life. In terms of attitude, he followed her lead.

“Aren’t they members of the Qiao Family?” Mo Chu rubbed his small nose and said with a slightly chilly voice, “Then send them back as they were!”

“Yes!” Yi Han nodded slightly.

Therefore, just when the Qiao Family was full of anticipation to hear the news of Mo Chu’s death, a few bodies were sent over. They were terrified, but at the same time, they could not help but tremble in anger!

“This is yours, right?” Yi Han’s gaze was cold and sinister. “You have to keep it well!”

As he said that, he threw the body parts in the bag right in the middle of the Qiao Family’s front door, making a few dull thuds on the ground, then, he turned around and left in a carefree manner, disregarding their unsightly expressions!

“Hurry up and pack them up!”

When Elder Qiao, who had rushed over after receiving the news, saw this scene, he was so angry that his entire body trembled!

He had really underestimated Mo Chu! That’s right. Since she was able to cure Song Qingsong’s illness, the others were naturally not a problem. No one had expected that the geniuses who had been abandoned by the various large families back then would now completely become Mo Chu’s subordinates!

These few broken corpses were her silent declaration of war!

“Family Head,” Fifth Brother also stood by the side, his eyes filled with grief. These were all the Qiao Family’s combat strengths! Now, it was just a waste. “I reckon… the assassination is no longer effective.”

With Yihan and the others protecting him, Mo Chu’s side was no different from an iron wall. No matter how many people they sent, it was just a waste of effort.

“I know.” Elder Qiao’s eyes narrowed slightly. This time, he failed to kill Mo Chu. It would probably be even more difficult in the future!

As Yi Han and the others reappeared, the upper class of the Federation could not help but tremble!

In just a short one to two months, Mo Chu had grown to a level that people did not dare to look at!

The geniuses who had been abandoned by others had their fates changed by her one by one. She had wiped away the filth on the surface, and they had once again blossomed into a new brilliance!

With this help, Mo Chu had risen from a nobody to a colossus in an instant! Her strange and unpredictable methods and ability to stir up the wind and clouds made no one dare to underestimate her!

The Starnet was also in a state of shock!

The era that Yihan and the others were shining in was now decades away from Song Qingsong’s. Even so, they were still the idols and beliefs in the hearts of many people. When they saw that they had risen up again, these fans were all in an uproar!

“In the past, I didn’t feel anything toward Domineering Roudy. However, now that I’ve seen Yihan and the others reborn, I have to say, Mo Chu, thank you!”

The simple and sincere words expressed the surging excitement and gratitude in their hearts.

Coincidentally, everyone lined up to express their gratitude under these words.

“Mo Chu, thank you!”

“Mo Chu, thank you!”

…

In an instant, Mo Chu’s popularity reached an unprecedented peak in the entire Federation!

It was because of this that the Qiao Family, who had once targeted Mo Chu, became the target of public criticism. Not only did the medicinal pill business plummet, anyone who casually walked onto the streets and said that their surname was Qiao would immediately receive a lot of disdainful looks. There were even some extreme fans who could directly rush out and give him a fierce beating!

The Qiao Family, which had once been in the limelight, had now become a rat-like existence on the streets. If they had not seen it with their own eyes, it would have been hard for anyone to believe it. What was even more shocking was that all of this was because of a 17 or 18-year-old girl!

Mo Chu naturally understood what the Qiao Family had suffered.

However, was this considered tragic? The corners of Mo Chu’s mouth curled up slightly as he reached out his hand to open the video call that connected to Will.

As a result, from the second day onwards, the supply of Spirit Food in the upper circles of the Federation had been completely cut off!

The people who had not moved a single inch before now began to panic one after another. One by one, they crowded around will, their faces filled with anxiety as they asked what was going on.

One had to know that compared to pills, not only did Spirit Food taste good, its effect on elemental cultivation was even more astonishing. Moreover, it did not have any toxic side effects. In the past half a year, they had already gotten used to the nourishment of Spirit Food. Now that they had suddenly withdrawn, how could they not be anxious?

“I’m sorry.” In the face of everyone’s barrage of questions, Will only smiled faintly and refused to say a word. After this period of training, he had already developed the style of a great general. He smiled like the wind and changed the topic imperceptibly. “Without Spirit Food, everyone can still eat pills.”

How was that possible?

How could you let a person who was already used to delicious meat and fish return to the time when he was eating bran and vegetables?

Faced with the angry questions from the crowd, Will said lightly, “I’m very sorry.”

Then, under the protection of the bodyguards, he walked out. Only the people from the other families looked at each other at a loss.

Actually, the meaning of this was already very clear.

Mo Chu wanted them to choose! Would they side with the Qiao Family or with her?

For these small families to be able to climb to their current positions, they were naturally smart people. After all, no one knew how things would develop in the future. If they were to side with the wrong side, in the end, they would lose the entire game!

Mo Chu was naturally clear on this point.

However, there was no such thing as getting Spirit Food and not becoming enemies with the Qiao Family. How could there be such an easy thing in this world? She might as well use a drastic move to force them to declare their stance!

After thinking for a long time with a bitter face, a few families quickly made a decision!

The Qiao Family was indeed powerful. However, times had changed. Not only was Mo Chu’s method unyielding, she also had the Ning Family backing him up. Even if he appeared to be weaker now, there might still be room for him to climb up in the future!

Clenching their fists tightly, the patriarchs of several families made their stance to Will. Before long, their families started to attack the Qiao Family, which could be considered as showing their stance toward Mo Chu.

Of course, there were even more families who did not dare to offend the Qiao Family!

Although the Qiao Family was not successful now, it was still a hundred-year-old family. It was too unrealistic for Mo Chu to destroy it alone.

Mo Chu did not say much about these families. Since they trusted the Qiao Family, then the supply of Spirit Food naturally could not be given to them.

Although the few families that had already pledged allegiance to Mo Chu were not as powerful as the big families like Qiao and Ning, their connections in some key places could not be underestimated!

In just half a month, several people that the Qiao Family had arranged in the military and political circles had been deliberately picked on and brought down. For a moment, Elder Qiao was so angry that several wrinkles appeared on his face!

Bang!

A precious crystal cup was smashed on the stone floor of the Qiao Family, breaking into several pieces!

“They actually dare to do such a thing… ?” Elder Qiao’s chest moved fiercely, and his eyes turned red! He had never thought that Mo Chu would use the Spirit Food as bait to form an alliance with several families. Before he received the news, he had already made a move at lightning speed, he even wanted to take this opportunity to destroy the Qiao Family in one fell swoop!

Hmph! Wishful thinking!

Closing his eyes, Elder Qiao opened his eyes and drew a few lines on the terminal. After a moment of silence, he contacted the young master of the Michael family, Alan.

“Hmm, isn’t it the Qiao Family’s Head?” After waiting for a moment, Alan finally answered the call. His demonic appearance was just like before. On the chair behind him was a piece of bloodthirsty tiger’s hide. His arrogant and unrestrained manner was not inferior to that of the past. “Why, are you looking for me for something?”

“Let’s work together!” Elder Qiao went straight to the point.

“Oh?” Alan’s lips curled into an evil smile. “I don’t understand what you’re saying. Do you think there’s any space for you and I to work together?”

According to seniority, Elder Qiao and their father and grandfather were of the same class. However, the Michael family had always maintained a neutral attitude at times like this. At this moment, Elder Qiao was also a little flustered, that was why he took the initiative to contact Alan.

“Of course.”Within a few breaths, Elder Qiao had regained his usual calm and composure as he spoke accurately, “It’s impossible for you and will to coexist peacefully. It’s impossible for the Qiao Family and Mo Chu to coexist peacefully. Aren’t we natural allies?”

“That’s not necessarily the case! As merchants, we’ve never had such a thing as allies.” Alan raised his eyes slightly. His deep gaze made it impossible to tell whether he was sad or happy. “We can only become close friends who love each other with benefits.”

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the Qiao Family had encountered a crisis. If they could not withstand it, they would probably be finished! Alan’s subtext was also very clear. The prerequisite of whether they could cooperate or not was how much benefits the Qiao Family could offer.

“What are you prepared to ask for?” As he said this, Old Qiao could not help but clench his fists. If it was not for Mo Chu, how could the Qiao Family have fallen to such a state and even need to bargain with a junior like Alan?

“Hmm… Let me think about it carefully.” Alan stood up slightly. His expression was unfathomable. After a long while, he said lightly, “Why don’t you give me the two grandmaster alchemists of your Qiao Family?”

What!?

Elder Qiao’s gaze froze!

This Alan was really taking advantage of the situation and asking for more! Everyone knew that most of the Qiao Family’s wealth and connections came from these four grandmasters. Qiao Shan was already in a half-crippled state. Now, as soon as Alan opened his mouth, he wanted to poach two of the remaining three grandmaster alchemists… Was he trying to rob them?

“What? You’re not happy?” Alan lowered his head and laughed lightly. “The Qiao Family is currently facing enemies from both sides. If we don’t resolve this problem as soon as possible, I’m afraid it will be very difficult for us to overcome this hurdle!”

The pursuit of profit was the true nature of a businessman.

Alan saw very clearly that although Mo Chu’s Spirit Food was effective, the quantity was small and the audience was small. At most, it occupied the resources at the highest level of the federation. However, there was still a large portion of the market below that still belonged to medicinal pills.

That’s right, the Qiao Family’s brand was indeed smelly! However, as long as these two medicinal pill grandmasters fell into the hands of their Michael family, it would be another matter.

Elder Qiao closed his eyes. Although Alan’s words were a little exaggerated, they also revealed a bit of the truth.

Their Qiao Family had now been thrown into the flames. If they were not able to get out of this predicament in time, they might really be burned to death!

“Alright, I agree to your terms!”

Hearing this, Allen suddenly sat up, his eyes bright. “Very good, I hope we can work together happily!”

“Then when are you going to make a move?”

Other than possessing an astonishing amount of wealth, Michael Fmily also had an elite force that belonged solely to them. Otherwise, how could they stand for so many years without collapsing?

This was what Elder Qiao saw in them!

“Don’t worry.” Alan waved his hand. “As the saying goes, the right time, the right place, and the right people. If we want to make a move, we need a suitable time.”

“When would that be?” Elder Qiao frowned slightly.

“You’ll know soon enough…” Alan’s face was full of smiles, but he had no intention of answering his questions.

However, not long after, Elder Qiao also knew what the word ‘opportunity’ meant — the ‘Galatic War’ had officially begun!

This once-in-a-century ceremony quickly attracted everyone’s attention away from the Qiao Family.

In this vast space, other than the Earth where the Federation was located, there were many other planets. Naturally, there were people from other galaxies living in this space.

Among them, the ‘Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’ and the ‘Dark Blue Galaxy’ were the most powerful, and the Earthlings could only be ranked third! This year’s ‘Galactic War’ home ground was the Federation!

The upper echelons of the government were also paying close attention to this matter. Due to Ning Yiyuan’s recent performance, they handed this matter over to him. Of course, this was also due to him adding fuel to the fire. After all, in order to successfully appoint the commander of the Federation’s military region, other than battle results, he needed other contributions.

And right now, the Interstellar War that he was in charge of was the best test paper.

Seeing Ning Yiyuan’s calm expression, the military officials sitting beside him could not help but praise him!

As expected of the child raised by the Ning Family. He was capable, calm, and even her horizons were frighteningly sharp! This was the first time he had fallen in love with a young girl, and now he had his eyes on a top-notch figure like Mo Chu. It was truly impressive!

“Humph! Marshal Ning has been in the limelight recently, but this Interstellar War is not an easy task.” After the meeting ended, everyone walked out one after another. Song Tiancheng, who was one step behind, opened his mouth to mock him, “Don’t forget the bet we made!”

As the power of the Qiao Family fell, even the song family’s momentum was not as good as before. Song Tiancheng would only bring this up after they left the meeting hall. If it were in the past, he would have said this in the meeting long ago.

“Of course, I won’t forget.” Ning Yiyuan turned his head slightly and the corners of his mouth curled up. “Then, you have to prepare your Black Gold Stone!”

After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving only Song Tiancheng who was furious on the spot.

After accepting the preparations for the Interstellar War, Ning Yiyuan could not help but take a deep breath. This courage was even heavier than what ordinary people saw!

“Are you going back to the office?” Zuo Lin sat beside him and asked softly.

Ever since his Boss decided to participate in this year’s military district Commander election, he had been busy. Two-thirds of his time was wasted in the office every day.

“No need.” Ning Yiyuan glanced at the terminal with a hint of gentleness in his eyes. “Let’s go to the Military Academy first.”

“Okay!” Zuo Lin nodded in understanding. There was a hint of mockery in his eyes. It had been half a month since he last saw Mo Chu, and his Boss’s patience was about to reach its limit.

Even though he was sitting on the Drive machine, Ning Yiyuan was still reading through some information.

This was the basic procedure for this year’s Interstellar War, or ‘Galactic Combat’.

Although the content of each session was similar, since they were the hosts, they had to make it unique and to the best of their ability! Therefore, Ning Yiyuan could not neglect these big and small problems. He had to take care of every aspect.

The Drive Machine was switched on very steadily, and the occasional vibration could be ignored.

Ning Yiyuan’s speed was very fast. In just a short while, he had finished reading a piece of information. He wrote down his comments and then gave them in detail. When he looked up again, he could already see the shadow of the Military Academy.

“Boss, then we’ll go to the principal first,” Zhong Wen pulled Zuo Lin, who was about to follow, and said with a smile.

To put it bluntly, the purpose of ‘Galactic Combat’ was to use this opportunity to show off the strength of the various galaxies. Among them, the Military Academy was naturally involved.

“Sure.” Ning Yiyuan nodded and walked toward the laboratory where Chen Baizun had come down from. With Zuo Lin as a know-it-all, he naturally knew about Mo Chu’s movements at this moment.

“Look, it’s Marshal Ning!”

“So handsome, as expected of my idol.”

“Get lost! He must be looking for Mo Chu.”

…

Along the way, many people cast heated gazes at Ning Yiyuan, and the whispers that they thought were tiny entered Ning Yiyuan’s ears. However, he still had an indifferent expression on his face, the cold and stern aura from his body also caused many women who were preparing to go forward to secretly retreat.

When they reached the entrance of the laboratory, Ning Yiyuan stopped and waited outside.

His timing was very accurate. After about ten minutes, the genetic door of the laboratory opened automatically. Mo Chu stepped out and saw the handsome Ning Yiyuan outside. Her expression was slightly stunned, “You… Why are you here?”

“Waiting for you to come out.” Ning Yiyuan’s cold face seemed to vanish in an instant. A gentle look appeared in his eyes. “Have you eaten?”

“Yes.” Mo Chu nodded. Looking at his skin which was slightly red from the scorching sun, her eyes were slightly startled. “Why didn’t you send me a video message?”

What if she had spent a lot of time on this experiment and this person was also foolishly waiting here?

“It’s nothing. I didn’t want to disturb you.” Ning Yiyuan shook his head slightly. His clear and shallow words caused Mo Chu’s heart to tremble and her footsteps to stop slightly.

Sensing Mo Chu’s abnormal behavior, Ning Yiyuan also stopped and turned her head to ask, “What’s wrong?”

“You… Why do you like me?” Mo Chu’s eyes were clear, but her ears were slightly stained with a hint of redness.

Ning Yiyuan clearly had a cold and hard personality, but he treated her differently.

People who usually did not talk much could say romantic words to her. They cared about her thoughts and satisfied her desires… Whether it was in the 21st century or now, this was Mo Chu’s first time experiencing love. She was touched, but she could not help but be curious.

Hearing this, Ning Yiyuan chuckled!

He reached out to pinch Mo Chu’s fair and tender face and muttered to himself, “Yeah, why would I fall in love with you?”

His deep eyes flickered with a moving light!

Mo Chu’s skin was very delicate. With just a light pinch, a faint red mark appeared. Ning Yiyuan could not help but frown and quickly let go.

That red mark was still there, and coupled with Mo Chu’s jade-white cheeks, it was even more obvious.

“Does it hurt?” Ning Yiyuan took a few steps closer and carefully looked at the red mark, a trace of heartache flashing through his eyes.

It was a funny thing to say. He had just become an adult and had already entered the battlefield. The injuries on his body were countless, and he had never cried out the word ‘pain’. However, looking at the red mark on Mo Chu’s face, his heart felt extremely uncomfortable.

‘Your injuries are in my heart’, This was a phrase that had become extremely popular in the federation over the past few years.

Previously, when Ning Yiyuan had seen it, he would have scoffed at it. Listening to it, it was truly awkward!

However, when he met Mo Chu, he finally understood the meaning of this phrase. If it was possible, he would rather bear all the pain for Little Chu. He only hoped that she would be safe and sound…

Leaning forward, Ning Yiyuan gently planted a kiss on the red mark on Mo Chu’s face. His tone was pious as he said, “… I love you.”

This voice was soft, as if it had spun around his throat before muttering it. However, the two of them were very close to each other at this moment, so Mo Chu could barely hear them clearly. Her clear eyes slightly widened, and his small mouth slightly opened…

Ning Yiyuan was already emotionally moved. Now that he saw her like this, his brain could not help but jerk violently. The thread called reason was forcefully torn off just like that!

“You seduced me!” Ning Yiyuan’s voice was slightly hoarse.

“Huh?” Mo Chu was stunned, and she had yet to react.

Ning Yiyuan suddenly took a step forward, shrinking the space between the two of them that was almost close to each other. He hugged her in his arms, and his perfect lips tightly covered her lips.

As their lips and tongues intertwined, Ning Yiyuan was like a hungry tiger that had been released from the fence. He licked her fiercely, and his kisses were filled with intense excitement and passion! Mo Chu did not even have the time to breathe. She only felt that her entire body was about to be swallowed by Ning Yiyuan.

If it was not for the fact that she was worried about Mo Chu’s age, Ning Yiyuan would have swallowed Mo Chu right now!

After an unknown amount of time, Ning Yiyuan finally let go of her.

“Huff, Huff…” Mo Chu panted heavily, her small chest heaving up and down. Her exquisite and fair collarbone attracted people’s attention, successfully making Ning Yiyuan’s eyes redden again.

“Don’t…” Mo Chu hurriedly pushed him away. Even for a short while, she felt her lips numbing and hurting. If she were to do it again, what would happen? Ning Yiyuan naturally noticed her frown. His heart could not help but twist. He looked down and saw that Mo Chu’s lips were already swollen and there was even a bit of torn flesh on them… how could it not hurt?

There was no other way. Ning Yiyuan had been staying away from women for too long, so how could he resist? Even if it was just a little bit of intimacy, it was enough for him to savor it for a long time.

Raising his eyebrows, Ning Yiyuan took out the medicine from the terminal and carefully applied it onto Mo Chu. “Does it still hurt?”

“No.” Mo Chu shook her head honestly. The effect of the medicine was really good. There was no pain at all when it was applied on.

“Then I’ll send you back?” Ning Yiyuan’s eyes trembled slightly. Today’s scene completely revealed the relationship between the two of them. Would Mo Chu accept it or not…

“… Okay!” When he saw Mo Chu nod her head, Ning Yiyuan finally let out a sigh of relief. He stretched out his hand and tightly held Mo Chu’s little hand, spreading his warmth.

Ning Yiyuan alone would already turn a lot of heads, not to mention standing together with Mo Chu at this moment. The two of them walked back together in this manner. Their matching figures caused many people to sigh.

“If I really want to give up my idol, I would only do so for Mo Chu!” This was the woman who had a face full of infatuation just a moment ago, and she had to bear the pain of giving up her idol.

“What! If it’s anyone besides Marshal Ning, would I be able to give up my goddess?” This was the man from the Military Academy who was full of admiration for Mo Chu.
