After the Breakup I Took It Easy and Became Invincible Chapter 141 : Chapter 141

Chapter 141. An Eighth-Realm Martial Emperor—Huaxia’s Commander-in-Chief Was Stunned

The minimalist office fell into a brief, deathly silence.

Hong Wu, dressed in military uniform, stared at the four mbers of the Divine Battle Division, his tone thick with suspicion.

“Are you certain? Jiang Yichen only just graduated from Central China Martial Arts Academy. Reaching the Fifth Realm would already make him one in ten thousand. Do you even understand what an Eighth-Realm Martial Emperor ans?”

Hearing that, the four exchanged glances.

At first, they had not believed it either, but the facts were right in front of them. They had no choice but to believe.

i Xue’er, disguised as a bearded middle-aged man, nodded heavily. “Commander-in-Chief, we’re certain. When Jiang Yichen fought us, he could freely manipulate the surrounding space. That is the ability of an Eighth-Realm Martial Emperor who has gained control over a domain.”

!

Shock flashed through Hong Wu’s eyes, and countless thoughts surged through his mind.

Perhaps Jiang Zhentian had given Jiang Yichen so kind of treasure that allowed him to wield such power, or perhaps...

But all of those thoughts were rely excuses he had co up with because he could not accept that soone who had only graduated not long ago had already reached the level of an Eighth-Realm Martial Emperor.

Looking across all of Huaxia’s geniuses since the Great Cataclysm, not one of them had ever been as terrifying as Jiang Yichen.

He completely overturned Hong Wu’s definition of what a genius was.

Hong Wu took a deep breath and slowly leaned back in his chair. Thinking of Jiang Zhentian, who had already beco a god, he could not help marveling that this whole family was monstrous.

And Jiang Zhentian was also incredibly scheming. The fact that he had managed to make a peerless martial arts prodigy, one unrivaled in all of Huaxia, pretend to be a useless wastrel for four whole years showed that Jiang Zhentian was absolutely not soone easy to deal with.

“Commander-in-Chief, what the minister said is true. Jiang Yichen is really far too strong. He even shattered my simulated robot soul vessel with a single punch.”

Thinking Hong Wu still did not believe them, Lingling explained with sha and admiration.

Liang Shan also nodded in agreent. “And the minister’s Law of Charm was useless against Jiang Yichen, so... that’s why the mission failed.”

Mo Yan originally wanted to speak, but when he thought that he might bring disaster upon himself with one careless sentence, he shut his mouth again.

He flipped his folding fan over, revealing the side with the word “Right!” written on it.

As i Xue’er listened to his team mbers explain, a faint smile curled at the corner of her lips. “Commander-in-Chief, no matter what, our first mission ended in failure. We are willing to accept punishnt.”

There was far less of his usual frivolity in her voice.

Hong Wu slowly ca back to himself and shook his head slightly. “I can’t bla you. It was my intelligence that was wrong.”

“By the way, since Jiang Yichen possesses such terrifying strength, why didn’t you invite him to join the Divine Battle Division?”

The mont those words were spoken, helpless expressions imdiately appeared on the faces of i Xue’er and the others.

“Commander-in-Chief, we did invite him, but Jiang Yichen refused,” Lingling said bitterly.

Soone who had reached the Eighth Realm as soon as he graduated was a heaven-defying powerhouse. More than anyone, they wanted to understand him and hoped he would join the Divine Battle Division.

But the problem was that he simply was not willing.

i Xue’er also nodded. “I even said that you could give the order personally, Commander-in-Chief, but Jiang Yichen told to have you speak to his father.”

Hearing that, Hong Wu’s face imdiately darkened. That brat really did bring out his godlike father whenever anything ca up.

The last ti Tang Wuji wanted Sleep God to join the Divine Battle Division, it had been the sa story.

But Jiang Zhentian was now the first martial artist in all of Huaxia to beco a god, so Hong Wu could not exactly refuse to show him respect.

Hong Wu drew in a deep breath, a thoughtful look rising in his eyes.

Jiang Yichen possessed such overwhelming strength, and he had even trained Starfire Team into a championship team. If he joined the Divine Battle Division, he might be able to raise the entire division to a new level.

It just so happened that the Divine Ruins at Guankou needed to be explored. If Jiang Yichen joined them, the chances of success would likely be much greater.

As for whether he was willing...

Hong Wu smiled faintly. Forcing him was certainly not an option, but handling it through proper procedure was a different matter.

After the first two months of collective training during their military district internship, the recruits would be assigned to the various battle divisions or military districts according to their results in the Recruit Assessnt.

Jiang Yichen would be no exception.

“All right, I understand.” Hong Wu’s expression returned to its usual sternness. “After Jiang Yichen finishes his Recruit Assessnt in two months, I will arrange for him to enter the Divine Battle Division.”

When i Xue’er and the others heard this, delight rose in their hearts.

They were all extrely curious about Jiang Yichen as well.

“Yes, Commander-in-Chief.”

Hong Wu gave a slight nod, and with a small movent of his finger, a virtual screen appeared.

“In addition, you have a new mission. This contains the basic information on the Divine Ruins at Guankou. For the next two months, you will carry out an exploration of the ruins.”

“Once Jiang Yichen joins the Divine Battle Division two months from now, it will be much safer for you to continue the exploration together.”

i Xue’er and the others looked toward the information on the virtual screen, their expressions turning grave.

Exploring ruins was completely different from killing demonic beasts and dealing with a beast tide crisis.

The dangers inside ruins were many, and often impossible for people to predict.

Every ruin currently under Huaxia’s control had been explored at the cost of countless martial artists’ blood.

“Understood, Commander-in-Chief. We guarantee that we will complete the mission.”

i Xue’er accepted the order with forced resolve and saluted Hong Wu.

Hong Wu smiled. “There’s no need to be nervous. I’ll co up with a foolproof plan for you.”

“Oh, right. You have a new mber joining you. I’ll have him co in and et you.”

Hong Wu looked toward the guard at the side. The man nodded and stepped out of the office.

i Xue’er and the others looked puzzled.

A mont later, a young man with hair as ssy as a bird’s nest and bloodshot eyes slowly walked into the office.

“Commander-in-Chief.” He greeted him sleepily, as though he might fall asleep the very next second. His eyelids kept drooping shut.

Hong Wu gave a slight nod and introduced him. “His na is ng Yan. He is a Divine Contract Holder who ca out of Slaughter Dream Valley, and he is also your new teammate.”

ng Yan quickly nodded to i Xue’er and the others. “Just call Sleep God. That’s the na my boss gave .”

Boss?

Tilting her head, Lingling asked, “Who is your boss?”

“Young Master Jiang, of course. He treats really well.” Sleep God grinned.

The four mbers of the Divine Battle Division froze at the sa ti.

Huh?

Wait, Jiang Yichen trained a Divine Contract Holder too? Why did he suddenly seem ridiculously overpowered!?

“Are you very strong?” Lingling asked.

Sleep God shook his head. “When I’m awake, I’m very weak. I won’t hurt you.”

Curiosity shone in Lingling’s eyes. “Weak when you’re awake? Then what about when you’re asleep?”

Sleep God opened his eyes slightly and let his gaze sweep across the four of them. After thinking for a mont, he said, “Beating the four of you shouldn’t be much of a problem.”

Lingling: “...”

The other three: “...”

So, so arrogant!

Seeing their reactions, Hong Wu could not help laughing. “ng Yan is telling the truth. The main issue is the gap in your cultivation arts. The cultivation art ng Yan practices has been appraised by the research institute as ‘God-tier.’ It is perfectly normal that you can’t defeat him.”

???

Question marks practically popped up over their heads. A God-tier cultivation art? They had never even seen one before.

Fine. Then you really do have the right to be arrogant.

Sleep God scratched his ssy hair and said modestly, “It’s all because Boss taught well. Without the cultivation art Boss gave , I never would have reached this level.”

The four mbers of the Divine Battle Division felt even more dead inside.

Jiang Yichen even handed out God-tier cultivation arts?

There were only a few of those in all of Huaxia.

And basically all of them were in the hands of the five Martial Gods.

Rich. He was simply unimaginably rich.

i Xue’er stood there in a daze. Recalling what Jiang Yichen had said to her before, she could not help feeling sowhat ashad of herself.

She let out a sigh, straightened her clothes, and strode up to Sleep God.

“My na is i Xue’er. I’m from the Divine Battle Division. Welco to the team.” he extended his right hand.

Hearing that cutesy loli voice, Sleep God’s eyes filled with confusion. He reached out and shook her hand as he said,

“Mister, why are you still using a voice changer?”

i Xue’er: “...”
