After the Breakup I Took It Easy and Became Invincible Chapter 137 : Chapter 137

Chapter 137. You’re Using a Beast Tide Against ? How naive!

Inside the Chief Instructor’s Office.

With a gloomy expression, Jiang Feng did not go to the cafeteria for lunch. Instead, he took off his military cap and knocked on Zhou Yu’s office door.

“Co in.”

Zhou Yu seed to have expected him already, and his tone was calm.

Jiang Feng walked up to him and asked directly, “What is that man’s strength now, exactly?”

Zhou Yu thought for a mont before answering, “A Spatial Domain, second only to a Ti Domain. If I did not misread him, then he should be a Seventh-Realm Martial King.”

At those words, Jiang Feng’s pupils contracted violently. He refused to believe it. “How is that possible? How could he have beco this strong?!”

Before the Military District Internship began, he had only thought he was a little weaker than Jiang Yichen.

But now, the gap between him and Jiang Yichen was as vast as the sky and the earth, utterly beyond reach.

For the first ti, a trace of jealousy appeared in Jiang Feng’s eyes. The veins on his forehead bulged as he snarled, “Damn it! That man actually dared escape my control!”

Zhou Yu was speechless with this domineering little brat. Slowly, he said, “Now that we know Jiang Yichen’s true strength, our plan has to change as well.”

“A Seventh-Realm Martial King with a Ninth-Rank Magical Artifact at his side is not soone ordinary demon beasts could ever kill.”

Jiang Feng’s eyes flickered with complicated emotion. After a mont of silence, he asked, “Then what do we do?”

Zhou Yu pulled out a file labeled recruit wilderness mission from his drawer. “One month from now is the recruit wilderness mission. Recruits will be split into groups of five and sent into the wilderness to hunt designated demon beasts.”

“I will ask the Zhou family’s main clan for help. While Jiang Yichen’s group is carrying out its mission, we will trigger an S-rank Beast Tide.”

An S-rank Beast Tide!

Jiang Feng was slightly startled. Beast Tides were ranked from D to SSS, and an S-rank Beast Tide had to be led by at least two peak Eighth-rank demon beasts.

Without reinforcents, that was enough to destroy an entire military district.

Jiang Yichen, who was only in the Seventh Realm, truly could not possibly withstand sothing like that.

“Isn’t that going too far? And if it’s groups of five, what about the others?”

Zhou Yu smiled faintly. “Do not worry. The Zhou family’s main clan will make sure the Beast Tide attacks only Jiang Yichen. But whether this succeeds or not depends on you.”

“?” Jiang Feng asked in confusion.

Zhou Yu nodded. “I will give you a Beast Tide Trigger Device. The mont you press it, the Beast Tide will begin. So I will arrange for you to join Jiang Yichen’s group.”

Jiang Feng imdiately sensed that sothing was wrong.

If he was the one to trigger the Beast Tide, then if Jiang Zhentian investigated afterward, would he not be finished?

“What do you take for? A scapegoat?”

Zhou Yu froze for a mont. So the boy was not stupid after all.

Still, he was far too green.

“How could you think that of ?” Zhou Yu said, patting Jiang Feng on the shoulder. “If you were the only survivor of the Beast Tide, then of course everyone would suspect you.”

“But if Jiang Yichen is the only one who dies, while everyone else survives, and you put on a convincing act, suffer a few injuries, then without evidence, how could they possibly suspect you?”

Jiang Feng frowned tightly and did not respond.

The plan was indeed feasible, but the unpredictable risks were far too great.

“Jiang Feng, do not forget your father’s expectations for you. Do you not want to beco the Jiang family’s Heir?”

Zhou Yu’s tone softened as both hands settled on Jiang Feng’s shoulders. “Do not worry. Once this is done, the Zhou family will clear you of suspicion.”

“Without evidence, even Jiang Zhentian, for all that he is a Martial God, would not dare challenge Huaxia’s laws.”

Jiang Feng slowly clenched his hands. When he recalled the look of expectation in his father’s eyes, he hesitated for a long ti before finally nodding.

A smile imdiately appeared on Zhou Yu’s face. “That is more like it, Jiang Feng. Only the ruthless get what they want.”

Jiang Feng let out a long sigh. Conflict filled his cold eyes.

In the past, he and Jiang Yichen had only been competing to see who would win and who would lose. But now, things had escalated to the point where one of them had to die.

Was what he was doing really right?

For the first ti, the domineering young master began to doubt himself.

…

Inside the military district cafeteria.

“Brother Yichen, where is the captain?”

Tang Long had finished getting his food and sat across from him with a stainless steel tray in hand.

Jiang Yichen said helplessly, “She was worried I would not be used to cafeteria food, so she went to cook for herself.”

Tang Long’s expression stiffened, and the food on his tray instantly lost all appeal.

Damn it! Why the hell did I ask?

“Why did you have to bring that up?” Chu Xingchen said as he picked up so bok choy and put it into his mouth. “Just eat your food. You do not have that kind of luck.”

Tang Long’s face fell. Picking up his chopsticks, he stared at the chicken drumstick on Chu Xingchen’s tray. “Hero Chu, let ask you sothing.”

“Go ahead.”

“Suppose that while wandering the world, you see soone who has not had enough to eat and is about to faint from hunger. Just so happens, you have a chicken drumstick in your hand, and you really want to eat it too. Would you give it to him?”

Hearing Tang Long’s question, Chu Xingchen answered without the slightest hesitation, “Yes. I rely want to eat it, while he needs it to fill his stomach.”

Tang Long imdiately grinned, reached over with his chopsticks, snatched the chicken drumstick from Chu Xingchen’s tray, and took a huge bite.

“I am that person. Many thanks to Hero Chu for the chicken drumstick,” he said through a mouthful of food.

Chu Xingchen: “…”

Jiang Yichen burst out laughing at the sight.

He glanced toward the cafeteria window and saw Su Linyu, dressed in military uniform, gripping a kitchen knife and chopping vegetables with practiced ease. When she finished, she wiped the fine beads of sweat from her forehead with her sleeve.

The corner of his mouth lifted slightly.

When you choose soone who loves you, happiness always finds a way to reach you in the smallest, most unexpected monts.

Only after watching for quite a while did Jiang Yichen withdraw his gaze and open the System Space.

He still had not opened the High-level Slacker Gift Pack he had just received. He might as well test his luck and see whether he could get a Supre-grade reward.

“System, open the gift pack,” he said inwardly.

[Congratulations, Host. You have obtained: one hundred thousand Seventh-rank Five Thunder Talismans and ten thousand Eighth-rank Fire Feather Talismans.]

Oh?

Looks like he had hit the talisman jackpot.

Jiang Yichen sighed inwardly. Both the Five Thunder Talisman and the Fire Feather Talisman were large-scale group-attack talismans, and they were especially effective against a Beast Tide.

Which ant their prices were outrageously high. A single Seventh-rank Five Thunder Talisman cost around 3.5 million, not to ntion an Eighth-rank talisman.

In his previous life, when he had been in the Corpse-Carrying Camp, he had encountered a Beast Tide before. But frontline soldiers could never be equipped with such absurdly expensive talismans.

They could only rely on modified firearms and close combat to resist it. Yet human strength always had its limits, and the result had been devastating casualties.

This reward was not bad at all. The next ti he ran into a Beast Tide, he would not even need to make a move himself. He could just throw talismans around as if they cost nothing.

Jiang Yichen could not help smiling.

“Jiang Yichen~”

At that mont, a childish, affected voice rang out. It felt as if soone had jabbed a needle into Jiang Yichen’s brain. He turned his head and saw i Xue’er and the other three carrying their trays over.

“May this lady join your table?” the greasy, bearded uncle said in a deliberately coquettish tone.

With that sentence alone, Tang Long’s face turned red. Not only did he feel no disgust at all, he was deeply captivated instead.

Chu Xingchen slowly reached out, grabbed the fat at Tang Long’s waist, and twisted hard. Tang Long let out a squeal like a pig before finally coming back to his senses.

i Xue’er covered his mouth and laughed shyly, but with that bearded uncle’s face, the effect was sowhat horrifying.

“Old Chu, this really is my type,” Tang Long said, blinking.

Chu Xingchen’s mouth twitched. What a unique taste.

“May I? This lady will be very well-behaved, and they will be well-behaved too,” i Xue’er said, throwing him a flirtatious look.

Jiang Yichen suppressed the urge to walk over and punch him. Then he said, “I think you would look more like a human being if you dropped the disguise and spoke normally.”

The smile on i Xue’er’s face vanished.

Lingling, Liang Shan, and Mo Yan were snickering behind him.

“All right, all right.” i Xue’er sat down beside them, and Mo Yan and the others sat down as well.

“Jiang Yichen, I have so good news for you. Do you want to know—”

“I do not,” Jiang Yichen said, raising a hand to cut him off. “You may leave now.”

“…#$%!”

i Xue’er took a deep breath. “You have to listen.”

Jiang Yichen shook his head. Was this not just an invitation to join the Divine Battle Division? He had already learned that entire little sche the mont he invaded i Xue’er’s Sea of Consciousness.

“Then I am saying it anyway.” i Xue’er’s tone returned to normal. “As the Minister of the Divine Battle Division, I am formally inviting you to join the Divine Battle Division and fight to defend Huaxia.”

Jiang Yichen curled his lip, about to refuse, when the system’s voice suddenly rang out.

[Ding! Slacking choice triggered…]
