Chapter 484: 267 Unfathomable! (Second update)
Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye elicited complex emotions in Guan Rong. There was no way he could feel anything but hatred after they had injured so many of his subordinates. Yet, he could see that these two were unlike any adversaries he had encountered before—they were far more unfathomable!
Heh! Unfathomable!
Inhaling sharply, Guan Rong never expected he’d face a day like this. If it came down to brute force, he was nearly the strongest in the Safe Zone, confident that he was more powerful than the other big shots there.
But these two newcomers were different; he couldn’t see through them at all!
Initially preoccupied with the condition of his injured men, he hadn’t scrutinized these two thoroughly. Now that he had, both of them seemed deep and impenetrable! Not just the man who had seriously wounded Chen Hang in one move, but also the beautiful woman beside him—her power seemed to surpass his own!
What on earth was happening to this world!
A strong sense of surrealism struck Guan Rong, but he was quite certain his perceptions were not mistaken.
These two were very strong—so strong that he had to treat them with utmost caution!
He had rushed here after receiving Chen Hang’s message. Although he found Chen Hang’s cautious tone rather laughable—at the end of the day, Chen Hang had just advanced to a Second-level Superpower User and was far from matching his power—he didn’t necessarily share Chen Hang’s opinion about the duo’s prowess.
On his way, Guan Rong had imagined how he would swiftly and elegantly defeat them, teach them the consequences of offending the Glory Mercenary Corps, and serve as a warning to others with malicious intentions in the shadows.
Who could have guessed that upon his arrival, he would find his own men incapacitated, limbs disabled, sprawled on the ground in disarray, with even the Second-level Superpower User Chen Hang critically injured and covered in blood!
This was utterly beyond his expectations! Therefore, his defeat was inevitable from the moment he appeared.
Now, due to Fang Yuxin’s words, Guan Rong had to confront them. Upon realizing that their powers were likely superior to his, he changed his initial approach, deciding to extend an olive branch to the pair.
Just as Fang Yuxin had surmised, power dynamics within the Safe Zone were complex. Although the Glory Mercenary Corps was formidable, they couldn’t afford significant losses, something Guan Rong couldn’t risk!
He didn’t even dare strike back or get injured!
If he was critically wounded, he wouldn’t be able to maintain his position at the Glory Mercenary Corps, which would likely be devoured entirely by other forces!
Guan Rong was no fool; knowing he was outmatched, how could he make such a foolish move!
He stepped forward, cupping one hand in the other before his chest towards Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye, and declared with a clear voice, "I’ve heard about what happened on my way over, my brother has offended you both due to his carelessness, and now, he has learned his lesson, and you’ve had your catharsis. Could I ask you both to do Guan a favor and let bygones be bygones? Guan is willing to prepare a banquet to apologize on behalf of my brother!"
His demeanor was neither servile nor overbearing, containing a hint of sincerity, completely devoid of the sullenness he had shown before when facing Guan Ren.
After speaking, Guan Rong watched Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye, waiting for their response. He was not too anxious, as the fact that Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye hadn’t killed anyone suggested they didn’t wish to be enemies with the Glory Mercenary Corps. If that was the case, there was still a chance for resolution.
Listening to his proposal, Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye couldn’t help but admire him somewhat. In the post-apocalyptic world where resources were scarce and Ordinary People could hardly fill their stomachs, only a big shot like Guan Rong could afford such banquets.
The Glory Mercenary Corps was large, numbering in the thousands, which meant Guan Rong had considerable resources at his disposal. However, with so many mouths to feed, he likely wouldn’t hold a banquet lightly.
Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye exchanged a glance, and Bai Ye asked in a low voice, "Xinxin, do you want to go?"
Fang Yuxin’s lips curved into a smile, her eyes alight with mischief, "Go, why not? A free meal shouldn’t be wasted!"
Bai Ye was amused by her antics and shook his head with a chuckle. They had already eaten, and they weren’t particularly hungry at the moment. However, they had just been through a battle, expending substantial energy, so indulging in a good meal wasn’t a bad idea.
After all, the digestive abilities of superpower users were far superior to those of Ordinary People, and their appetites were larger, just like Fang Yuxin said, a free meal shouldn’t be wasted!
Bai Ye looked at Fang Yuxin, his gaze filled with an intense affection he didn’t even notice himself. Perhaps it was from spending so much time together that Fang Yuxin had gradually begun to show her softer side around him, no longer keeping a stern face as she used to, which made his heart flutter.
