He was resurrected indefinitely and handed over to the state by the headmistress.

Lu Chen composed himself and looked around.

This is a desolate Gobi desert area.

The sky was overcast, and the outlines of rolling black mountains could be vaguely seen in the distance.

A faint smell of burning filled the air.

The spiritual energy also seemed thin.

He looked in the direction Cold Frost had pointed.

The realm of life quietly unfolds.

Sure enough, it sensed something about a kilometer away.

Several vibrant life energies gathered together.

Without further hesitation, he conjured up a thought, and the floating throne flew out of the bracelet, instantly growing larger.

He stepped onto the throne, sat down steadily, and maneuvered the throne to fly smoothly in that direction.

Traveling on the throne was indeed much more comfortable and prestigious than using "Moonwalk".

Soon, he saw a campfire burning and people sitting around it in a sheltered rocky depression below.

There were twenty people in total.

Fifteen men and five women.

They were wearing standard combat uniforms with a distinct military style.

However, the styles and details are somewhat different.

It appears more sophisticated and unique.

At this moment, they were gathered around a huge campfire.

A sheep-shaped monster, the size of a small truck, was roasting over a fire, sizzling and dripping oil.

The aroma of meat mixed with the unique scent of some spices wafted through the air.

Lu Chen manipulated the throne to slowly descend, attracting the attention of the crowd below.

"Hey! You're the therapist they were talking about, right?"

A young man with short, fiery red hair, handsome yet with a touch of arrogance,

Looking up at Lu Chen, his tone was somewhat arrogant.

"So young? Did you just graduate from some university training program?"

Is there a level 80 character yet? Don't drag us down later.

"Brother Huo, here, this leg of lamb is the tenderest, you can have it!"

Beside him stood a cute girl with pink pigtails, whose eyes were constantly glued to the red-haired youth—Tianyu.

He eagerly handed over a large piece of roasted, golden-brown lamb leg.

The red-haired youth, Huo Lingfei, snatched it away without any hesitation, not even glancing at Tianyu, and mumbled as he ate:

I've told you so many times, I have no feelings for you!

Don't waste your time on me. No matter how much you try to please me, it's useless!

His tone was crisp and decisive, even somewhat hurtful.

However, Tianyu was not discouraged at all. Instead, he clenched his little fists and his eyes became even more determined:

"Brother Huo! I'll definitely make you take me seriously! Sincerity can move mountains!"

After all, it's easy for a woman to pursue a man.

The others around seemed to be used to the daily drama of "one chasing desperately, the other desperately dodging," and just smiled without interrupting.

Their gazes were mostly focused on the newly arrived Lu Chen, filled with curiosity.

"Hey bro, wanna come down and grab something to eat? It's freshly grilled, tastes pretty good."

Ye Wentian was a handsome young man with long, black hair neatly tied back, possessing a gentle yet composed demeanor.

He waved to Lu Chen in the air in a friendly manner.

Lu Chen maneuvered the throne to land smoothly, then shrunk it and put it away.

He glanced at the huge roasted whole lamb on the campfire.

Slightly taken aback, the size of this strange beast... was indeed astonishing.

"Hello, my name is Lu Chen. I was sent by Master Leng."

Lu Chen took the initiative to introduce himself and explain his background, hoping to gain trust quickly.

"Master Leng?!"

These three simple words, like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly created ripples.

Everyone present, including Huo Lingfei who was gnawing on a lamb leg and Tianyu whose eyes were full of stars,

Everyone turned their gaze to Lu Chen, in disbelief.

Master Leng?

That legendary god of death?

She sent someone herself?

Everyone looked Lu Chen up and down; his face was delicate and handsome.

A slightly thin but upright posture, with a calm breathing.

Aside from being slightly more handsome than Huo Lingfei, he looks like an ordinary young man.

No matter how much we value it, there's no need to bother Master Leng, that great Buddha, to personally give instructions, right?

You have to understand, Master Leng is the superior of their superior's superior...

An existence that you would never normally come into contact with!

Lu Chen felt somewhat uncomfortable under the gaze of those twenty scorching and complex eyes, and took a small step back.

He composed himself and asked the question that concerned him most at the moment:

"Hello, how far are we from here to our destination, East 37th Defense Line?"

"Don't you know the distance?"

Huo Lingfei abruptly stopped chewing, staring wide-eyed at Lu Chen.

Immediately, the surprise on his face turned into vigilance!

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Almost at the same time, everyone around except for Tianyu, who was slightly slower,

The other eighteen people all stood up instantly and drew their weapons at lightning speed!

Knives, swords, spears, and unusual weapons

A cold light flashed, and the aura instantly locked onto Lu Chen!

A chilling aura, hardened by countless battles, suddenly erupted!

"You're a fox spirit in disguise, aren't you? Speak! Where is your true form?!"

Huo Lingfei threw away the lamb leg, and a longsword burning with crimson flames appeared in his hand without him even noticing.

The tip of his sword pointed at Lu Chen, his eyes sharp as knives.

The others also formed a semi-encirclement, exuding a murderous aura.

If Lu Chen makes the slightest move, he will be immediately attacked with lightning speed.

Lu Chen was dumbfounded.

What's going on? Why did they draw their knives at each other without warning?

Do you even suspect that you are a demon in disguise?

"Hey! I'm a genuine Chinese!"

"With Mr. Leng as my witness! Don't wrong an innocent person!"

Lu Chen frowned and quickly explained, his mind racing.

The life domain unfolded silently, covering the entire body and enveloping and marking all twenty people in front of it.

He gripped the "substitute puppet" given to him by Grandma Zhu tightly in his hand, ready to activate it at any moment.

He had to prepare for the worst, in case these guys were mentally unstable.

"Stop."

Just as tensions were about to rise,

Leng Shuang's clear and authoritative voice

It resonated directly in everyone's mind.

"You're all in cahoots. Lu Chen arrived in such a rush that he didn't have time to look at the detailed mission files. You guys, explain the specifics to him."

"I have something to do, I'll be going now."

As soon as he finished speaking, the invisible pressure dissipated.

Huo Lingfei and the others trembled, their faces instantly displaying utmost respect.

They all bowed slightly towards a certain direction in the void: "Respectfully seeing off Master!"

They maintained a respectful posture and waited for about ten seconds.

After confirming that Leng Shuang had indeed left, he slowly straightened up and put away his weapon.

But the way he looked at Lu Chen was completely different now.

"brother,"

Ye Wentian was the first to revert to his familiar, outgoing self.

He walked up with a smile and patted Lu Chen on the shoulder.

"You're quite capable! You actually managed to get Master Leng to personally escort you here, and even gave you special instructions via telepathy..."

Tell me, which reclusive family do you belong to?

Or is he a personal disciple of some powerful figure?

"Here you go, it's freshly baked, eat it while it's hot."

Beside her stood a woman with a cool and aloof demeanor, rare dark green long hair, and pupils that also had a faint green tinge.

Zhu Qingqing silently handed over a large piece of mutton wrapped in clean leaves, her tone indifferent.

Since Master Leng has confirmed that they are companions, there is no need to doubt them further.
