Chapter 507: Chapter 127: Yet He Chose the Toughest Profession

Gu Xiaoxi searched around the room and found them in the clothes she used to wear.

The weather in the Imperial Capital wasn’t very cold, but it still required layering up.

Gu Xiaoxi changed her clothes and quietly walked downstairs.

The servants were busy in the room, and when they saw her, they said politely, "Miss Gu, the young master has left. He said he’ll be back in half an hour. Please wait for a moment."

Gu Xiaoxi nodded.

She waited in the living room for a while.

Half an hour later, she saw Quan Shaoqing walk in through the door.

She quickly stood up, but remained silent without saying a word.

Quan Shaoqing entered, glanced at the clothes Gu Xiaoxi was wearing—a black shirt with long pants, which had a bit of flair.

It was her usual style, only now her head was bowed, a look that was at odds with her usual carefree demeanor.

"Are you ready?" Quan Shaoqing stepped forward, standing in front of her. His handsome features bore an indescribable heaviness.

Gu Xiaoxi nodded, "I’m ready."

Did she need to prepare for anything? It was just a change of clothes.

Obviously, she hadn’t understood Quan Shaoqing’s meaning.

"To continue being Young Master Quan’s Wife, you’ll face enemies more formidable than Yi Si, some even stronger than me. By my side, you never know when you could die. I can save you, but I can’t be with you all the time. Are you willing?" Quan Shaoqing spoke in a particularly light tone, as if posing a question.

After speaking, he pulled out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.

He had contemplated this matter for a long time.

In the end, he couldn’t make up his mind.

Letting her go was fraught with danger, but by his side, he could take care of her.

However, the dangers by his side were even greater.

In the end, he left the decision up to her.

Gu Xiaoxi clenched her fists—the divorce certificate was already in hand.

There was no more talk of being Young Master Quan’s Wife.

She wasn’t afraid of dying, but she didn’t want to be his burden.

"I’m not willing!" Gu Xiaoxi raised her head and looked resolutely at Quan Shaoqing, determination clear in her pure eyes, "Please take me back to the Frontier."

With Yi Si dead, her danger should have been lifted.

As for the Nascent Soul, it was not something someone of her level could encounter, and she would never foolishly follow him.

Quan Shaoqing seemed not to have expected her decision, and he was momentarily stunned. He took a deep breath, "Fine! I respect your decision."

She had decided to leave him! Well, that was one less danger to worry about, one less concern to occupy his heart.

Returning to the Imperial Capital.

The journey was only a matter of a few hours.

Quan Shaoqing took her to the hotel where Yun Xiao and Shao Changfeng were staying, then let them return to the Z Division themselves before he left.

Yun Xiao couldn’t believe that Quan Shaoqing had actually brought Gu Xiaoxi back safely.

"You scared me to death. I thought I’d never see you again," Yun Xiao embraced Gu Xiaoxi, her eyes red from crying.

Seeing Gu Xiaoxi return, Shao Changfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief. "It’s good that you’re back!"

"I’ve caused you two a lot of worry," Gu Xiaoxi felt that if there were ever the best partners, it would be the three of them.

From the moment they met, they had been inseparable.

"However, it seems we’ve gotten ourselves into quite a bit of trouble," Yun Xiao explained, wiping away tears.

Shao Changfeng turned on the television and said to Gu Xiaoxi, "Because of your situation, the superior officer suddenly left the Congress. Now the news media is full of questioning voices about him."

"Xiao Xi, I think the superior officer really cares about you," Yun Xiao could tell through these events.

To him, Gu Xiaoxi was more important than anything else.

Gu Xiaoxi pursed her lips; he couldn’t love her.

And she wasn’t qualified to stand by his side yet.

She didn’t know whether to continue this relationship, but right now, she truly couldn’t help him.

Even being by his side was difficult.

Gu Xiaoxi turned off the internet, "No need to look anymore, he has the strength. This matter won’t take long to resolve. Let’s buy tickets back to Z Division."

Returning to Z Division, Cheng Yinuo was dismissed, and Lin Qing, the Air Force Commander-in-Chief, assumed the position.

After Gu Xiaoxi left, the uprising at the Frontier naturally subsided.

They continued their daily training, just as before.

A week later, headquarters issued an order to gather all Special Ability Users and internal martial arts experts, elevating them to the headquarters to form anti-terrorist Special Forces members.

Yun Xiao, Gu Xiaoxi, Shao Changfeng, and others were all included.

As for the matter of Quan Shaoqing’s departure from the Congress, it was already perfectly resolved.

After returning, Quan Shaoqing convened a meeting and announced to everyone that Yi Si’s subordinates in Liuli Country had been completely uncovered.

Furthermore, Yi Si had already died in Iceland.

He summarized everything he had done in just a few words, without mentioning that he was the one who took action.

With such an explanation, it was understandable to everyone, and it even earned a wave of praise.

Moreover, his youthful and handsome appearance quickly overshadowed any accusations.

The Special Forces team sent to Division Z included Yun Xiao, Zuo Yu, Tang Yisheng, Mo Li, Gu Xiaoxi, Gao Yuchen, Shao Changfeng, and Zhao Zilong - eight people in total.

Of course, these individuals would still need to be selected, only those who could truly coordinate in battle would remain in the counter-terrorism Special Forces.

Soon, they were transferred from Division Z to the Second Military Region.

And their chief instructor was still Chen Zimo.

During the previous world competition, they had training in the capital for three months.

Now, returning for more training, nothing felt particularly different.

Additionally, some of the members recruited for the Special Forces team were already acquainted from the world competition.

From the Eight Divisions, twenty-four people in total had arrived.

Sixty percent of them were Special Ability Users, and the rest were martial arts experts.

Gu Xiaoxi and others were arranged in the Special Training Camp in the Imperial Capital.

The training regimen for them included not only daily training but also special courses for Special Ability training, along with designated free training time.

That is to say, everyone would train together in the morning, and as long as they completed the morning’s training, the afternoon could be spent in free training.

In time, as long as they passed the assessment, they could be directly entrusted with important missions by the Liuli Country Military Department, becoming key members of the core Special Forces of Liuli Country.

At their level, the use of weapons and military qualities had already reached an extremely high standard.

Now, what everyone needed to do was to elevate their Inner Strength and Special Abilities to a stronger level.

Therefore, the scope of training wasn’t limited to the military.

In order to facilitate better improvement of their abilities, everyone had the freedom to come and go from the military camp as they pleased.

They adopted the Special Combat Division training model of the International Alliance.

Each month, the first half required concentrated training within the military camp, while the second half allowed them to leave the camp to train independently.

Gu Xiaoxi still could not find the way to unlock the third level of her Cultivation Technique; both her Spiritual Power and Inner Strength had stagnated.

The half-month of free training was a perfect opportunity for her to leave the camp and seek someone with fate.

Previously, Ya had a good understanding of her crystal, but ever since their last meeting, she had not been able to find any trace of him.

Gu Xiaoxi decided to take a trip to search for Ya.

Before leaving, she made up her mind to visit Mr. Quan and Mrs. Quan.

Moreover, she returned without informing Quan Shaoqing.

Quan Gui and Song Xu were both at home for a rare occasion, and they were very happy to see Gu Xiaoxi.

The servants prepared a large table of delicious dishes, and Quan Mo was especially overjoyed.

"Xiao Xi, do you have any plans for the future?" Song Xu asked.

Gu Xiaoxi thought about it while eating, "My plan is to continue in the military. Otherwise, I’m not good at anything else."

"Why don’t you leave the army and come work at my company? I’ve heard your computer skills are excellent! I’ll offer you a high salary," Quan Gui suggested persuasively, always having thought highly of her.

Gu Xiaoxi picked up her wine glass, looked at him, and politely smiled, "Thank you, Dad, for your support, but I still want to be a soldier."

The beliefs he steadfastly held, she would also steadfastly accompany him in upholding.

Quan Gui sighed, "You! Don’t spoil him too much, have your own thoughts. The army has one of him already, that’s enough."

"Dad, could you really bear to see him suffer alone? No matter what, although my strength may be insignificant, I can still help him somewhat," Gu Xiaoxi reflected, realizing it had been a month since she last saw Quan Shaoqing.

Occasionally, she would look for newspapers about him, reading them over and over again.

She turned her gaze towards the door, wishing so much that before leaving Liuli Country, she could see him just one more time.

But she knew it was impossible.

As the chief commander of the Eight Divisions, he would be too busy to spare any time.

Meetings would be constant, and he would often represent the country in military exercises in other nations.

"All you have are excuses!" Seeing Gu Xiaoxi lost in thought, Quan Gui followed her gaze towards the door.

It was clear to him what she was thinking about, even if he did not say it out loud.

Quan Shaoqing was indeed too stubborn.

He wanted to be a soldier and thus had relinquished all his freedom.

Even being with the person he liked was not an option.

The peace he was guarding, his own father could not comprehend.

They had so much money and could have lived a better life.

Yet he chose the most arduous profession.
