As expected of a world-class super-commercial association, sending 200 truckloads of goods is like going out to fight a war! Without prior arrangements, most countries wouldn't let them in like this, would they?

You should know that these warriors and mages are even better than some of the top ice teams in some countries!

###188. The bleeding won't stop again... ###

"Yes! It's them! Boss was killed by those three women!"

The five or six mercenaries pointed at the three women who were watching them coldly and loudly accused them!

"... "

These hundreds of powerful figures remained silent, but in that instant, they reached a consensus: arrest the person first, and interrogate them thoroughly. No matter the reason, offending the Kararachi Merchant Guild wouldn't be resolved with just a few words! Not to mention, a living person was at stake!

They gradually approached, the three women each facing a different direction, ready for battle!

"Haaah!"

Just as tensions were about to rise, Chu Xing stretched, yawned casually, and leaned back lazily in the carriage, saying calmly and naturally, "Are you going to block my way?"

"... "

No one spoke. In their eyes, Chu Xing's demeanor was merely an act, a pretense of composure! Although they weren't among the world's top experts, they were extremely close, or perhaps even second-rate. And their combined strength was something even the likes of the Pyramid of Combat Power couldn't underestimate!

Chu Xing?

Maybe he has some ability, but can he really cause such a huge upheaval at such a young age?

Yes, that's exactly what these hundreds of elite soldiers protecting the goods thought they were!

Then, in the next moment, it overturned all expectations!

Chu Xing smiled calmly and pointed a finger into the air. Instantly, the already gloomy sky was covered with dark clouds, and a massive, world-cleansing lightning bolt, about the size of two hands, struck the ground occupied by the hundreds of people. The area it touched, about five meters in diameter, turned to scorched earth! Everyone within that radius naturally turned to ashes as well!

Wow!

"Help!"

"This person is no ordinary person!"

"This, this! Run!"

These hundreds of people, having witnessed the deaths of their comrades in an instant, finally broke their silence. The terrifying attack, like divine punishment, instilled fear deep within them, causing them to panic instantly!

After all, with nearly a hundred people dying at once, how could they not be a little unruly?

"This person is extraordinary; we cannot capture him alive, we must kill him on the spot!"

"kill!"

However, being a well-trained team, after a moment of chaos, they regrouped and launched a devastating attack, unleashing a barrage of elemental skills of varying attributes that destroyed Chu Xing!

Good heavens, these guys are truly professionals. Even after being struck by a barrage of lightning that killed nearly a hundred people, their combined strength still allows them to easily destroy a city.

This power, capable of destroying a city, is concentrated into a single point and bombarded Chu Xing. Chu Xing might be able to manipulate space and not care, but the three girls beside him and the trembling girl driving the carriage are not immune to it!

It's time to take action again!

A murderous intent flashed in Chu Xing's eyes, and his hand, which was still hovering in mid-air, suddenly clenched into a fist!

Boom boom boom!

The earth trembled, and the powerful and heavy earth element responded to the call, with dozens of rock walls rising from the ground to envelop the group of five!

This was not the end. Countless earth spikes, like ground squirrels, quickly burrowed up from the ground and then retreated, constantly moving back and forth in this area!

Soil may seem fragile to many, but when the earth element comes together, it becomes incredibly solid!

Because of the addition of the earth element, what was originally soft has become incredibly hard. Therefore, every time it emerges from the ground, it takes away a life, turning this place into a terrifying place where blood and screams converge!

Fortunately, Heaven has a benevolent heart, and Chu Xing has a kind heart. After looking around, he saw that there were still more than 100 people left, so he opened his hand again and spared the lives of these poor migrant workers.

"I'm really scary!"

Chu Xing glanced calmly at the carnage before him. Only a little over 100 strong men remained, their legs trembling. He shouted towards the convoy, "Anastasia, are you just going to stand there and watch? So many of your mercenaries have died, and you're completely unmoved? Have you become so stingy that you won't pay your mercenaries if you can avoid it?"

"... "

Upon hearing this, the mercenary squad and the ordinary laborers surrounding the 200 trucks of goods all looked at the dragon-shaped vehicle, which was not lavish but was well protected by a large number of people!

The air was quiet for a long while…

"It's been so long!"

A white figure jumped out of the car. The delicate beauty with a bright smile that warmed people's hearts came to Chu Xing in three steps. She didn't care about the gazes of others and hugged Chu Xing!

Wow!

The others' eyes widened in surprise, almost popping out of their sockets.

Leaving aside why Anastasia, who clearly knew this person, didn't step forward!

What they were most concerned about was that Anastasia would treat a man like this. Wasn't she a heartless, staunchly single person?

"hehe!"

Chu Xing still had a calm smile, but this smile did not become more pleasant because of the fragrant young girl's embrace; instead, it became even colder!

"Stop like this! I'm just curious, you clearly discovered it was me through the detection tool, so why didn't you help me? Instead, you wanted me to kill all your guards. What's the point of that? Or do you just want to see if these hundreds or thousands of high-level mages and warriors can kill me?"

"... "

Anastasia raised her head, her emerald eyes shining with divine light, their shimmering depths seemingly containing both resentment and boundless love!

This kind of eye contact is really hard to resist!

However, this might sway many people, but Chu Xing wasn't about to give up so easily. He acted as if he hadn't seen it and said, "So, do you know what? You still have a year. After this year, no matter what situation you've reached, remember to come back! That was the vow we made back then. At that moment, I didn't make a contract; I simply trusted you and hoped you wouldn't betray my trust!"

"Haha."

Anastasia laughed too. She had experienced a lot in the past few years. Her emerald green eyes were no longer crystal clear, but had become deep. Even Chu Xing could not see through the thoughts of this great merchant!

Anastasia smiled for half a minute, then became serious and said solemnly, "I will, just wait and see! You gave me my first pot of gold, so naturally I will repay you a hundredfold, even a thousandfold! No matter how brilliant and glorious I become, Anastasia will never forget those who have been kind to me!"

"I hope so!"

Chu Xing mumbled something indistinctly, then reached out and gently pinched Anastasia's cheek!

Anastasia tried to dodge when the hand was placed in her face. After all these years, since stepping into the business world, no one had ever interacted with her like this! All that flashed in her hand was profit!

But she couldn't... or rather, she dared not!

###189.Reply###

Anastasia then continued on her journey, while Chu Xing returned to his dragon chariot, lazily nestled in Rem's arms, enjoying the girl's head massage!

Ram watched the convoy drive away in the distance, biting her lip lightly, hesitant to speak, before finally asking, "Brother, do you think she'll give up everything and come back to you when next year ends?"

"What do you think?"

Chu Xing countered with this question, and without waiting for Ram to offer her opinion, continued, "Can she control her own destiny? In this world, having more money doesn't make you invincible! This girl may be ambitious, but there's never a shortage of ambitious people, so she's just an ordinary person. When has it ever been so important whether an ordinary person is willing or not?"

"Oh!"

Ram suddenly realized, and then teased, "Brother, you never treat human life as human life. You talk about this in many countries. You want the people to control the fate of the country and want to achieve so-called democracy. But if you were a king, you would be the kind of tyrannical and autocratic type."

"Anyway, as long as the country becomes stronger under my rule, that's fine." Chu Xing pouted, patted the girl's head, and suddenly a figure flashed through his mind. He smiled and said, "In a very faraway place, there was a country. The first nominal emperor of that country was a tyrannical and autocratic person, known as the Qin Dynasty. The country only existed for a little over ten years. However, in just ten years, he accomplished what previous generations couldn't do in hundreds of years! He defeated the other six countries in his region and achieved unification."

"There are such talented people? We don't think we've ever heard of them before?"

The three girls were somewhat surprised to hear this, feeling that Chu Xing was just telling them a story. Ten years may be a long time or a short time, but for a country, it is certainly insignificant. Now, defeating six countries and achieving unification in ten years can be described as a great feat.

And with such great achievements, one would surely enjoy renown throughout the world! But they seem to have never heard of this!

"That's why I said it's a very, very far country! So far that you little brains can't even imagine how far it is," Chu Xing said mysteriously.

It was this tone of voice that made the girls feel even more that Chu Xing was telling them a story... But to be fair, Chu Xing's eyes seemed quite genuine, could there really be such an emperor?

The three girls each began their own discussions about this emperor who may or may not have existed…

...

As the sun set, Chu Xing and his group finally returned to the capital!

"Sigh, they're back so soon. I should have known better than to run away!" Chu Xing couldn't help but twitch his lips as he passed through the gates of the capital.

Originally, he planned to return to the capital to find 486 a year later, but plans change, and he was back after only a month... However, Chu Xing had quite a few gains in this month! For example, he devoured the legal loli in the library, which was a feat that should have put him in solitary confinement for a few days... Wait a minute, why would a legal loli need to be put in solitary confinement?

"what?"

Just then, Chu Xing suddenly trembled, as if sensing something, and looked ahead.

At the city gate, a red-haired man was performing a routine check to ensure the safety of people entering the city.

Reinhard!

Chu Xing recognized the name at a glance!

Reinhard seemed to sense something unusual as well. He suddenly turned his head to look at Chu Xing, then his delicate eyebrows furrowed, and he strode towards Chu Xing!

"Hello, welcome. Do you have the necessary documents to enter the city? The capital is currently under alert due to the royal selection, and someone of your strength needs the appropriate documents to enter!" Reinhard was incredibly gentlemanly, with a gentle smile on his face, causing the three girls to linger on his handsome face for a while!

Chu Xing felt a pang of sadness. He patted the two girls on the head who were standing nearby to make them look away, and then said to Reinhard, "No, but I have this!"

Breaking through space, Chu Xing took out a gold badge from his personal storage space!

"This is--"

Reinhard was taken aback. Good heavens, he didn't recognize him!

"You don't recognize him?"

Chu Xing noticed the other person's confusion, rolled his eyes inwardly, and explained, "The Royal Knight Badge. Now that all the royals are dead, these knights have probably all run away. But this badge should still be useful, right? After all, they risked their lives for this country back then."

"Oh! My apologies."

Reinhard straightened up, his eyes instantly filled with respect. In that instant, many images flashed through his mind, such as Chu Xing in front of him, who had killed countless terrifying monsters for the sake of the country, guarding the royal family members and becoming the royal family's sharpest sword, sweeping away security threats in every corner of the country!

Chu Xing waved his hand dismissively and said indifferently, "No, no, ignorance is no excuse. Besides, there aren't any royal members left now. I wonder when we can get back to work and become royal knights again!"

"yes…"

Reinhard suddenly felt a touch of sadness in the air. He felt ashamed because he had started this whole mess. He quickly waved ahead, clearing a VIP path for high-ranking officials and nobles so that Chu Xing and his group could go first!

Chu Xing glanced at the main road beside him where hundreds of people were still queuing, and then looked at the VIP road where no one was using it. He couldn't help but smile and patted Reinhard on the shoulder: "Hmm, young man, you're not bad. In the future, this city or even this entire country will surely have a significant place in your life!"
