Eat Little Almonds
Chapter 863 The Telegraph Operator's Terror
Everyone was captivated by the man's aura.
They couldn't help but wonder, who exactly was this man? To be able to emerge unscathed from an alternate dimension.
Mu Xinxiu's eyes widened, as if she could hardly believe what she was seeing.
Mu Wan'er's beautiful eyes trembled violently, filled with complex emotions.
She vaguely remembered that the first time she saw this man, she had also seen a sky full of silver lightning snakes dancing wildly.
Compared to the complexity of Mu Xinxiu and his daughter, Sha Ren's reaction was incredibly pure.
Sha Ren waved his hand forcefully, even the shackles on his wrists clanging as he exerted himself.
"Lord Qiao Yu! I'm here, I'm Sha Ren! I really want to continue being your dog!"
When the people escorting the three heard this, their expressions instantly changed.
"He's Qiao Yu?! The Red Leaf Kingdom's驸马 (imperial son-in-law)?"
Qiao Yu also noticed the commotion and turned to look, his expression instantly darkening.
With a flash, Qiao Yu arrived in front of the group, smiling as he inquired,
"Hello, what are you doing?"
The leading man couldn't help but swallow.
No one had told him that the Red Leaf Kingdom's son-in-law was a formidable figure who could emerge unscathed from an alternate dimension.
"Noth... nothing, we're... we're just taking a stroll." The man didn't dare tell the truth and could only offer a random excuse.
"Not telling the truth is not being a good boy."
Qiao Yu smiled amiably, then gently pushed the man's head into his chest, instantly transforming the man into the warrior Xing Tian.
"Come on, he won't talk, you talk. I believe you're a good boy, right?"
Qiao Yu looked at the second man.
The second man trembled, stammering as he tried to speak. Qiao Yu casually struck again, his head turning into a meteor and disappearing into the depths of space.
"Too slow, not good. Come on, it's your turn."
Qiao Yu looked at the third man.
The third man shuddered and, with rapid-fire speed, explained everything.
"It's like this, we were ordered by the human race great power, Old Monster Changye, to escort Mu Xinxiu and his daughter, along with Sha Ren, throughout the First Universe to humiliate them as much as possible, all to force you out and reclaim the Poking Shuttle and Zeus's inheritance!"
Qiao Yu nodded repeatedly as he listened.
"Not bad, not bad, concise and clear. You're very good. Then let me ask you, where is Old Monster Changye? Point me in the right direction."
"Old Monster Changye... he should be on Haokong Star in the Central Star System right now, because a grand gathering of the human race's younger generation is being held there, and many human race great powers will be selecting geniuses without backgrounds to take as disciples."
"Very good! Answer one more question and I'll let you go immediately." Qiao Yu clapped his hands in praise.
The man nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice. "Ask away, sir, I guarantee to tell you everything I know."
"Very good, let me ask you, in what kind of garden do you dig, dig, dig?"
The man, who had been listening intently to the question, froze on the spot.
What kind of question was this? Why did it sound like a song and a bit hypnotic?
"Can't answer, huh? Goodbye."
Qiao Yu extended his finger and gently tapped, the man's body instantly torn to shreds by a burst of violent power.
Then, Qiao Yu sent the others to see Hades one by one.
At this point, only Qiao Yu, Sha Ren, Mu Xinxiu, and his daughter remained breathing in the starry sky.
Qiao Yu waved his hand, and the handcuffs and shackles binding the three were all shattered.
"Lord Qiao Yu, I've finally seen you again! They've been pressuring me since they caught me, but I didn't say a word!" Sha Ren tightly hugged Qiao Yu's leg, crying bitterly and refusing to let go.
Mu Xinxiu and Mu Wan'er both had complex expressions, unsure of how to face Qiao Yu.
In the end, Mu Xinxiu sighed softly and spoke, breaking the silence.
"Young hero Qiao Yu, long time no see."
"State Lord Mu, long time no see." Qiao Yu nodded.
"Don't call me State Lord anymore, the Red Leaf Kingdom has been destroyed." Mu Xinxiu smiled, his smile filled with bitterness.
"I'm sorry... this matter started because of me. What do you want, State Lord Mu? I'll definitely do it." Qiao Yu took a deep breath, expressing his apology.
"No need, after this incident, I've become indifferent. I just want to find a small place to live in seclusion, living a simple life." Mu Xinxiu shook his head.
People only change their previous notions when they experience major changes.
Clearly, Mu Xinxiu was tired of the life of chasing fame and fortune and scheming against others.
Qiao Yu was silent.
As long as Mu Xinxiu spoke, with his current strength, he could completely support Mu Xinxiu in building a force a thousand times stronger than the Red Leaf Kingdom.
Unfortunately, Mu Xinxiu didn't seem to have any thoughts in that direction.
And Mu Wan'er clearly still harbored resentment. She stood quietly behind Qiao Yu, showing no intention of talking to him.
Having ridden in a Ferrari once didn't mean she could actually marry the man who drove it.
Especially after seeing Qiao Yu emerge unscathed from the alternate dimension, Mu Wan'er became even more certain of her thoughts.
The gap between the two was too great, like the bright moon in the sky and a firefly on the ground.
She knew that the man before her was not her moon, but at least, the moonlight had once shone on her, and that was enough.
Mu Xinxiu turned and left with Mu Wan'er. They didn't ask Qiao Yu for anything, even though they vaguely guessed that Qiao Yu's current strength should be terrifying.
Watching the backs of the two as they left, Qiao Yu's mood couldn't help but become heavy.
"Xiao Lian, get your ass out here!"
Qiao Yu dragged the Purgatory Corpse King out of the undead space. Qiao Yu had already repaired the legs that had been cut off before.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
The Purgatory Corpse King looked a little strange when he was pulled out, and his eyes were a little evasive.
If it wasn't for him deliberately causing trouble at the time, this mess wouldn't have happened, so the Purgatory Corpse King naturally felt guilty.
"I'm giving you a mission. From today onwards, you will follow Mu Xinxiu and his daughter and protect their safety." Qiao Yu said coldly.
"What?! I f***, wouldn't that make me a f*** full-time babysitter? I'm not going! F***, whoever wants to go can go!" The Purgatory Corpse King's expression instantly changed.
He was hoping that Qiao Yu was so strong that he wouldn't need him anymore, so he could go back to the lava pool in the undead world and sleep.
"Not going?" A smile appeared on Qiao Yu's face. "You caused the trouble, who will go if you don't?"
"If you don't go, I'll call out two hundred Goat Demons to play with you, so you can understand what severe kidney deficiency is!"
"What? F***, two hundred Goat Demons? F*** you, you bastard Qiao Yu, I f***!" The Purgatory Corpse King's face turned pale instantly, his eyes filled with terror.
Two hundred Goat Demons?
He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold his shit in afterwards.
