Chapter 572: Chapter 370 Security and Retirement

After resting for half a day, Zhuo Yanran came over in the evening and couldn’t help but reprimand Zhao Cangming upon seeing him, but she was still very happy to see her son unharmed.

The siblings had already talked, and decided not to tell their mother the truth, to spare her unnecessary worry.

After dinner.

Zhao Cangming suddenly said, "Mom, I still want to venture into the Star Realm."

"Why can’t you give up?" Zhuo Yanran immediately expressed her disagreement, but it was clear she wasn’t as adamant as before.

"Brother-in-law found me in Olympia and said you were worried, so I specifically came back to tell you." Zhao Cangming’s face was serious, "I’m already an adult, and I don’t want to be useless on Earth all my life; sister also supports me."

Zhuo Yanran looked at her daughter.

Zhao Manying nodded, "Cangming’s strength is enough, many mutants enter the Star Realm once they reach the Intermediate Level."

This was what the three of them had agreed upon.

Shi Hongyi probably didn’t know yet that Zhao Cangming had escaped his predicament, and since neither side could completely sever ties at the moment, allowing Zhao Cangming to first enter the Star Realm to hide and grow was considered a good strategy.

"Brother-in-law was only at the Primary Level when he entered the Star Realm," Zhao Cangming noted his mother’s shifting interest and continued to persuade her.

"Can you compare yourself to Xinghuo?"

Zhuo Yanran glanced at Ji Xinghuo and asked, "Xinghuo, do you think it’s appropriate for Cangming to go into the Star Realm?"

"Of course, it’s no problem." Ji Xinghuo answered, "Cangming won’t be alone, I plan to call some friends, all experienced and powerful mutants, to form a team and take Cangming along."

"Even Xinghuo says so, then I’m reassured," Zhuo Yanran realized she couldn’t stop him and sighed, "Then go ahead."

Zhao Cangming was greatly delighted.

Zhao Manying then said, "Mom, I plan to retire from the league and focus on chasing the Legendary, moving in to live with you."

"Live with me?" Zhuo Yanran looked taken aback.

Her daughter had lived independently since adulthood and now had a boyfriend; even if she retired, why would she live with her again?

Although she was delighted, doubt inevitably arose in her mind.

The past few days had been filled with too many events, and the content reported on the news always made Zhuo Yanran feel that her children were hiding something from her.

She wondered, "You’re moving in with me, but what about Xinghuo?" She knew her daughter was cohabiting with Ji Xinghuo.

"Auntie, I will be entering the Star Realm again soon," Ji Xinghuo explained.

Zhao Manying moving into Zhuo Yanran’s house was naturally to protect her mother, but she couldn’t be by her side all the time, as she also had to go to the Ether Research Institute. Therefore, Ji Xinghuo planned to hire a bodyguard, not only to protect Zhuo Yanran but also his own family.

Zhuo Yanran frowned, "You are hiding something from me."

As the owner of a fashion design company with several dozen employees under her, she certainly wasn’t easy to fool.

Zhao Manying and Ji Xinghuo exchanged a glance.

"Someone is after us..." Zhao Manying started, telling her some things as per their earlier agreement.

But she didn’t mention Shi Hongyi, nor the real cause of their father’s death.

They planned to wait until they had taken revenge to tell her.

Actually, Ji Xinghuo thought it was best to be straightforward, but the siblings believed that since Zhuo Yanran was just an ordinary person, they didn’t want her to live in constant fear and worry.

It wasn’t his place to interfere in others’ family matters.

After listening, Zhuo Yanran still had her doubts but accepted their explanation.

Ji Xinghuo left Zhao Manying’s house alone and arrived at a high-end apartment several kilometers away, entering it.

"Welcome!"

An Yitian opened the door, all smiles.

"Senior An." Ji Xinghuo politely said, "Thank you for having me," and then followed An Yitian into the living room.

The top two floors of this apartment building had been bought by the An siblings to serve as their home. Neither of them was married, each occupying one floor, but at this moment An Zhisu was also at An Yitian’s home waiting.

"I was surprised to receive your call," An Yitian said after they sat down, "I saw on the internet yesterday that you had a conflict with the Great Magician, what happened?"

"That’s actually why I’m here today."

Ji Xinghuo got straight to the point, "Shi Hongyi and I have become sworn enemies, it’s a life-or-death situation now, but it’s being suppressed by the leader, and we’ll have to settle it sooner or later."

"That serious!"

An Yitian was greatly surprised, and An Zhisu also appeared solemn.

"I can’t reveal the specific details for now," Ji Xinghuo continued, "I’m worried Shi Hongyi might target my family and Man Ying’s family, so, I want to hire Senior An to ensure my family’s safety, we can discuss the price."

He had multiple reasons for approaching the An siblings.

One was that both were exceedingly strong, ranked 24th and 25th on the Legendary list, more than capable of protecting his family;

Another was that they had a good relationship, he had checked their background beforehand and found them trustworthy;

Third, the An siblings originally worked in this field, having established a top global private security company with four to five hundred mutants under them, including many legendary powerhouses, known for their excellent reputation and professionalism.

An Yitian was somewhat hesitant.

Ji Xinghuo immediately noticed his concern and said, "If Senior An is worried about becoming enemies with Shi Hongyi, I can understand."

"The Great Magician’s name is too prominent," An Yitian’s expression was conflicted, "He’s also the nation’s richest man, with top-notch connections and influence. Although I’m a Legendary, I don’t dare oppose the Great Magician..."

Agreeing to Ji Xinghuo’s offer would mean taking sides in their conflict.

During a conflict, that would make him an enemy of Shi Hongyi.

Although Ji Xinghuo was also powerful, his future achievements definitely surpassing Shi Hongyi’s, An Yitian really wanted to maintain a good relationship, but it was too risky.
