Chapter 935: Chapter 935: A Familiar Figure
“This…” Everyone exchanged glances again. With Ghost’s personal order, they had no reason to refuse. It was unexpected that Bai Jiao’s decision was the same as Ghost’s. Those who had just been vehemently opposing Bai Jiao now felt rather “slapped in the face.” Even Soul Destroyer and Demoness were shocked. They also disagreed with the idea of directly eliminating the Cam Gang. No, they still had to confirm this matter with Ghost.
“Since it’s Ghost’s order, then let’s comply.” Soul Destroyer stood up, waved his hand, and said, “Meeting adjourned. Go prepare. Once the support personnel arrive in a few days, we’ll start planning for the purge.”
“Yes.”
“In that case, I’ll go back to rest. I’ve been a bit tired lately, so unless it’s urgent, don’t disturb me.” Bai Jiao also stood up and said lightly, then turned to Ghost, extending a hand.
“Returning this to you. Peeping on women taking a bath is not something a gentleman should do. Besides…” Bai Jiao leaned close to Ghost’s ear and whispered, pointing to Demoness, “That one, she wouldn’t be happy.”
“But if you want to watch, come to my room tonight, sis here would be very welcoming.” Bai Jiao said playfully, but in Soul Destroyer’s ear, it sounded like the “temptation” of a witch.
If you dared to go, you’d either be killed by Bai Jiao, or beaten to death by Demoness…
“Ahem, aren’t you tired? Go and rest, I won’t call you unless it’s urgent.” In front of everyone, Soul Destroyer still maintained a serious demeanor.
“Haha, not me. I’ve finally come here, so I’m going to wander around.” Bai Jiao laughed as she walked out of the conference room, looking relaxed like she was on vacation, which caused dissatisfaction among many Netherworld Palace members.
“Lord Soul Destroyer, I don’t mean to offend you, but where on earth did this woman called Bai Jiao come from?” After Bai Jiao left, all the members couldn’t help but let their anger explode. It seemed they were genuinely annoyed.
“This question… is complicated, you don’t need to worry about it. If you don’t agree with her, just don’t speak to her.” Soul Destroyer hastily glossed over, and seeing this, the crowd could only shake their heads and leave the conference room.
“If you really dare to watch her bathe, or go to her room for a deeper conversation, I will gouge your eyes out.” After everyone had left, Demoness harshly spat these words and left, slamming the door behind her.
“Who did I offend?”
………………
Yanjing, training base.
Listening to Yan Kuan recounting the “long history” of Dragon Teeth, Ye Shikai seemed to be lost in thought again. All those who strive will one day become history. They were the same; Ye Shikai was once history too, only he had been “remade.”
The first time female members joined, to the members of Dragon Teeth, it was an even more eventful occasion than the annual big drills. All the members showed up. Ye Shikai’s appearance and his exposure as an instructor did not surprise them. At this moment, they might have understood why during the initial selection, among a group of female instructors, there was one “unknown male instructor” with a Major’s rank.
“I am Ouyang Feng, captain of Dragon Teeth Commando. First, welcome you all to join Dragon Teeth. This will be the most unforgettable experience of your military career.” Ouyang Feng suddenly paused, then said lightly, “Of course, the premise is that you survive, survive until retirement.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a trace of strange expression flashed across everyone’s face. The veteran members didn’t feel much, as they were already aware of the dangers around them. Ouyang Feng didn’t say it to dampen spirits; he merely wanted to prepare these ten female members. If they wanted to quit now, it wasn’t too late.
“Why, the selection is over, aren’t you going home for a look?” Yan Kuan walked up to Ye Shikai, patting his shoulder.
“I’ll wait until the welcome ceremony is over. After all, it’s been so long since I’ve been back, another half day won’t hurt.”
“With so much ‘fresh blood’ absorbed this time, the fighting power of the team shouldn’t decline because of it.” Yan Kuan reminded.
“Of course, training is tightly managed by Ouyang Feng, plus I see… these female soldiers are in no way weaker than those boys.” Ye Shikai quipped.
“Alright, take the new members to get their equipment. Dragon Teeth could have a mission at any time, don’t let down your guard.”
“Yes, sir.”
The next day, Netherworld Palace base.
“Boss, you finally returned.” Ghost handed over a document directly, “A lot has happened these days. You were unreachable, so I had to make decisions on your behalf.”
“No worries, your judgment is more accurate than mine, you’re fine to make the call.” Ye Shikai didn’t say much; he was a serious and dedicated “hands-off shopkeeper.”
“Soul Destroyer ran into some trouble in South America. The matter is significant and can’t be delayed, so I issued the combat order on your behalf.” Ghost recounted the events of the last ten days. When he heard that Soul Destroyer and Demoness encountered a gang attack, he was quite surprised. Who had such guts?
“Cam Gang, a powerful local group in South America, but I’ve ordered a purge.” Ghost explained.
“Whatever, since they initiated the attack, let them taste the repercussions.” Ye Shikai didn’t care much, thinking that a gang was no match for Netherworld Palace.
“Sir, there is a matter I need to report to you.” Ghost handed over a photo. It was a picture of Bai Jiao sent over by Soul Destroyer. Of course, after all these days, they still hadn’t learned Bai Jiao’s true appearance, as she was still veiled in the photo.
“A mysterious woman, also kidnapped Soul Destroyer. This is quite interesting.” Ye Shikai laughed instead of getting angry. He didn’t have x-ray vision and couldn’t see the woman’s true face, but somehow… this appearance seemed somewhat familiar to him, like he had seen it somewhere before.
“Moreover, this woman wants to be Soul Destroyer’s boss.” Ghost couldn’t help but burst into laughter as he spoke. Ye Shikai wasn’t upset about some so-called “pledge” Soul Destroyer signed. Instead, he was curious about this mysterious woman, very curious indeed. According to Soul Destroyer, the woman knew Ye Shikai, and even Ye Shikai knew her.
“I don’t remember knowing such a person,” Ye Shikai said casually, looking at the photo. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, and his expression changed dramatically, from casual to shocked.
“Boss, are you alright? Are you feeling unwell?”
“I… I seem to really know this woman.” Ye Shikai stared at the photo, with a figure slowly emerging in his mind. Could it really be her?
