Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive -
Chapter 215: Ye Xuan Appears
Chapter 215: Chapter 215: Ye Xuan Appears
"You are General Chu’s granddaughter?" Liu Chen asked with surprise etched on his face.
Did he just shoot at the General’s granddaughter? Fulfilling a mission was one thing, but killing innocent people and especially the descendants of decorated generals wasn’t something he wanted to carry on his conscience.
"Major General Ye has a girlfriend?" Before Chu Miao could reply to Liu Chen, she heard another shocked voice from behind her.
What was so strange about Ye Xuan having a girlfriend? It wasn’t like he wasn’t human. Why was everyone so surprised about it?
"Yes, I am General Chu’s only granddaughter and also yes, Ye Xuan has a girlfriend and that’s me.
Now, can we settle this and leave please? I left home early today and I want to go back and sleep." Chu Miao said this to reassure those with doubts about her identity and also to end this fight or whatever they wanted to call it.
She had indeed woken up earlier, but as a cultivator, she wasn’t tired or sleepy. In fact, she just needed to meditate for a while to feel refreshed even when she trained for long hours.
But she and her family liked to keep their lives as normal as possible. Just because it’s the apocalypse, they refused to let their lives be all about survival. They wanted to live as normal as possible in this environment.
So, unless they were in seclusion, they had regular meals like before, even though all of them could go for a day or two without eating and not feel hungry. Chu Miao could go even longer with her foundation establishment cultivation. However, like the rest of the family, she followed a regular routine. She ate and slept when needed.
But she also made sure to cultivate for some time every day whether in the soul ring or in the outside world. Because now there was spiritual energy in the outside world, it wasn’t a problem cultivating here.
It would only need a little more time compared to inside the soul ring because there was still a difference in the amount of spiritual energy one could absorb during cultivation.
That was probably why Li Kun and the others had yet to come out of seclusion. But she was sure that by tomorrow all of them would have made a breakthrough.
Well, talent also contributed a lot to the progress in cultivation. After all, Ye Xuan started and even when suppressing his cultivation, he still advanced to Qi refinement level two in less than a week.
Now she wondered how the new soldiers would fare. Pulling her thoughts back, Chu Miao looked straight at Liu Chen and asked, "You understood what I said, right? Go tell your superiors that Captain Qi and the rest are General Chu and Major General Ye’s subordinates. They cannot be touched."
The other soldiers, even though they had been cocky before when facing Qi Long, didn’t dare to be ostentatious in front of Chu Miao.
First of all she was too strong. She could stand in front of those raining bullets and remain without a scratch. Also, her identity meant that she was almost their superior.
The general’s granddaughter couldn’t be touched and they wouldn’t dare even with a hundred guts. So, they all agreed to retreat.
Their superiors couldn’t blame them for failing to complete their mission, after all, what could they do when even bullets didn’t work, throw bombs?
"Okay, Miss Chu, we will retreat and deliver your message." The buff soldier from earlier replied even before Liu Chen made the decision.
The soldiers were actually afraid that he would bring his stubbornness here and get them all killed. That was why he rushed to answer Chu Miao before Liu Chen opened his mouth.
"That’s for the best. I have a lot of respect for the men in uniform, but not those who slaughter the innocent and rob citizens. I eliminate those.
Make sure those words reach your leaders." Chu Miao once again had the righteous aura of the little general when she said that.
Her face was icy and her eyes as cold as winter in the north pole. This was the first time the soldiers had seen someone so young yet so intimidating. Indeed, General Chu’s descendant.
"Can I join your team?"
Just as the soldiers were about to turn their boats around and leave, this question stopped everyone in their tracks.
Both sides, including Chu Miao, looked at the place where the voice came from with astonishment.
Looking at the serious expression on Liu Chen’s face, he didn’t seem to be joking. Did he really want to join the other side just like that?
Wasn’t he famous for completing his missions no matter the consequences? Wasn’t he so rigid in his thinking that even promotions have passed him over several times?
Then what was going on now? Who was this guy asking with such a serious expression if he could join Chu Miao’s team?
Even Qi Long, who had known Liu Chen for a long time, was surprised. He was sure that this decision had nothing to do with his earlier invitation.
Then he remembered how he had once entered Liu Chen’s room and saw several posters of General Chu with numerous stars on his lapel. He had also heard him mention his yearning for going on only one mission with Major General Ye and understood.
The man had just found out that both the people he idolized were actually part of the same team. Joining the team could fulfill all his dreams.
He knew Liu Chen well enough to know that he would follow even if he wasn’t allowed to join. The guy had a kind of one-track mind that would stick to his beliefs no matter what.
That was the reason he did everything he could to complete missions, even if it cost him half of his life.
Chu Miao didn’t understand why but looking at that expression that seemed to say even if you don’t let me I will still go, she felt a sense of familiarity as if she had seen it somewhere before, but she couldn’t remember where.
"If you join us, you can never betray our team, otherwise I will make you wish you were never born. Trust me, that is not an empty threat." Chu Miao said with a serious expression.
She agreed because she wanted to figure out where that sense of familiarity came from. Did they know each other from somewhere else?
"You don’t have to worry, I will follow the orders given by superiors without fail." Liu Chen saw hope when he heard Chu Miao’s words and replied quickly as if afraid that she would change her mind.
For him, working under Ye Xuan and General Chu was more than just a dream, it was a belief. The belief he carried as a soldier.
"Okay then. You can join our team. The rules will be communicated in a few days after you have rested and gotten used to the new environment." Chu Miao said then she turned to the people behind her and talked directly to Qi Long.
"Make some room in your boat. We will go after the others first and pick them up before going home."
’Home.’ What a strange word to hear at this moment. They hadn’t heard this word since the apocalypse began. And even if it was uttered, it had a different meaning from before.
But now, coming out of Chu Miao made them think that they could gain a new meaning of home. Maybe, they could get a place to plant their roots again.
Everyone felt hope rise in their hearts at the thought.
"Okay Miss Chu." Qi Long replied and immediately made room for Liu Chen.
The soldiers on the other side stood there confused. Their leader had somehow jumped ship and they didn’t know what to do.
Should they leave or also ask to join? But they doubted that they would be allowed to join as easily as Liu Chen. Moreover, if they join, would they get the same benefits as the ones promised by their leaders?
They were in a real dilemma.
Just as they didn’t know what to do, they heard a cold voice that made them cold to their bones.
"Scram." That wasn’t really an order, it was something more humiliating but they didn’t even stop to look who had spoken as they started their boats and drove away.
It was only when they were almost a hundred meters away that they came back to their senses and turned to look back.
Then the scene that appeared in their eyes paralyzed them in place.
Only now did they together with Qi Long’s team who had remained behind realized that they had overlooked something ever since Chu Miao arrived and stopped the bullets.
They were astonished by a human being having the ability to block bullets that they ignored something very obvious.
