The Marshal’s Wife is Wild
Chapter 99 - 98: The Disappearance of Growth Liquid

Chapter 99: Chapter 98: The Disappearance of Growth Liquid

The two sides were locked in a verbal battle, with just Cheng Yao and Fei Wenxing being as noisy as eight hundred ducks, especially since they were on the side that held reason.

Lan Xingye, however, seemed to pay no heed to Fei Wenxing and Cheng Yao. He walked past the crowd towards Qu Tong and said with a sly tone, "Has anyone told you that talking about fairness with me is laughable?"

Upon hearing this, Qu Tong neither dodged nor avoided, lightly lifting the hair from her face and tucking it behind her ear, her smile cold.

Xie Ci furrowed his brow in concern, stepping forward to warn, "Third Young Master Lan, what are you doing? This is an arena."

The next second, before Qu Tong’s hand had dropped from her ear, she swayed to the side, the wind from her spiritual power lifting some strands of her hair.

Xie Ci, realizing what was happening, immediately stepped forward to help.

Since their strengths were almost equal and they hadn’t taken the stage, they instantly turned the area below into chaos.

A few other spectators had been enjoying the show, but they were frightened away from the battlefield by the sudden fight.

In the back and forth, Xie Ci, while trying to dodge Lan Xingye’s spiritual power Energy Balls, accidentally bumped into a fixed seat, pausing for a moment.

In that instant, Lan Xingye, with his sharp eyes, spotted him, and the following attacks targeted Xie Ci’s left leg.

However, as Lan Xingye fought, he was blown away by a sudden surge of spiritual power and fell heavily onto the stage.

Xie Ci had not expected Qu Tong to suddenly make a move and was also stunned for a moment.

"You! Pfft!"

Lan Xingye spat out a mouthful of blood, the internal injury from the hit clearly severe.

Qu Tong felt no guilt about the surprise attack; what fairness could there be in dealing with treacherous villains?

She hadn’t disabled him outright, all because of the respect she had for Commander Gong Yun, who was over two hundred years old.

Qu Tong stepped onto the stage, her tone light and airy, "Did you really think that blocking your spiritual power attack was a coincidence? Heh~"

The cold gleam in her eyes made Lan Xingye tremble imperceptibly, unable to speak for a moment.

Qu Tong sneered coldly and left before the administrators arrived.

Lan Xingye might talk less nonsense than his underlings, but he was arrogant and conceited.

With just an SS-rank physique and mediocre strength, he probably had just managed to materialize his spiritual power, and yet his Energy Needles were not solid enough; she shattered them with ease.

In his current state, he was unable to reassemble a second Energy Needle for a sneak attack.

Even if a fight broke out next, with Xie Ci and Fei Wenxing’s mechas around, they wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.

After everyone left the free-fighting stage, Fei Wenxing, belatedly realizing what had happened, let out a shout, "Damn! That sister was awesome!"

Then he exchanged glances with Cheng Yao, seeing the same shock and admiration in each other’s eyes.

Cheng Yao, "I want her to be our boss!"

"If she were our boss, I wouldn’t be afraid of that son of a turtle, Lan Xingye!"

Fei Wenxing smacked his forehead and, taking Cheng Yao with him, chased after her towards the exit.

Xie Ci, who was forced to step in and then step out, "..."

As long as you’re happy.

Of course, Fei Wenxing and Cheng Yao didn’t catch up with her, and as regulars, they were both dragged back inside by the administrator.

Qu Tong changed her outfit immediately after leaving the Underground Fighting Arena and even sent a message to Commander Gong Yun on the way.

During training time in the military base’s hall, Soldier Xuan Ping entered unsteadily, looking around for Doctor Jiang Zhou but not finding him.

Xuan Ping scratched the back of his head, puzzled. Hadn’t he been asked to come to the hall to get the Advanced Mind Stabilizing Potion?

The hall was empty except for the green vines standing quietly in the center, and a sweeping robot charging in standby mode nearby.

Rubbing his aching head, Xuan Ping walked to the center of the hall and sat down by the vines, feeling a slight relief in his Spirit Sea.

But this slight endurance was soon overwhelmed by the increasingly violent turmoil of his spiritual power. Xuan Ping unconsciously let out a pained grunt, his hand gripping his thigh so tightly his knuckles turned white.

Why hasn’t Doctor Jiang arrived yet?

Struggling to control himself, Xuan Ping’s eyes turned a bit red as he glanced at the closed door of the medical room, inadvertently noticing a particularly attractive red and yellow plant on the table near the door, alongside which stood a blue potion on a shelf.

Xuan Ping thought to himself, no wonder Doctor Jiang hadn’t shown up; he must have prepared it for him already.

Unable to wait any longer, Xuan Ping rushed over, grabbed the potion, pulled out the stopper, and drank it all in one gulp.

Didn’t the brothers say that this potion’s effects were very good, that you couldn’t feel any pain at all?

Why did his head still feel like it was splitting apart?

However, there was some relief after all, at least it had subsided to a bearable level, and his mind was still clear, devoid of that strong urge to destroy.

Forget it, as long as there’s some effect, he would endure it as usual till it passed.

Leaving the hall, Xuan Ping went to the control room at the back.

At this time, the green light above the medical room’s door lit up, and Jiang Zhou came out with a purple potion in his hand.

However, there was no one in the hall.

He took out his light-computer to ask Cheng Feng where today’s soldier with unstable spiritual power had gone.

After waiting for a while and not getting a response, he took out a label, wrote a name on it, stuck it on, and placed it on the large square table next to the vines.

Turning around, he picked up the potted plant by the door and reached toward the shelf, only then realizing with a start that there was nothing on it.

Jiang Zhou looked around puzzlingly, still holding the plant, and went back to his medical room.

In a short while, he came out again with the plant, fiddled with the soil of the tomato seedling with his finger, and murmured lowly:

"Strange? It’s not in here either; the count in the Space Button is correct, so who took it?"

Jiang Zhou took another potion out of his Space Button and poured it into the pot.

Xuan Ping stayed in the control room for over two hours, and he didn’t leave the base again until his spiritual power had completely stabilized.

Upon returning to his dormitory, he went straight to sleep.

Soldiers who experience mental outbursts are entitled to a three-day welfare leave, and Xuan Ping slept through till the afternoon of the next day.

He was finally awakened by the urgent knocking at the door.

Too lazy to dress properly, Xuan Ping simply pulled open the door.

Seeing the captain and Doctor Jiang at the door, he saluted, "Captain! Doctor Jiang! What brings you here?"

Upon seeing that Xuan Ping was alright, Cheng Feng finally relaxed and handed a tube of potion to Xuan Ping, "Didn’t you get your allotment? Why didn’t you go to Doctor Jiang for your potion?"

Xuan Ping looked at the potion in front of him, a perplexed expression in his eyes, then looked at Jiang Zhou, "Didn’t I already take mine?"

Doctor Jiang was baffled, "What did you take?"

Jiang Zhou scrutinized Xuan Ping suspiciously, as he had noticed right from opening the door that Xuan Ping exuded a very stable aura, clearly not the state of someone on the verge of a mental outburst.

But the potion was still here.

"The one you put on the table at the door," Xuan Ping replied honestly, clear eyes reflecting a big question mark.

Jiang Zhou’s brain clicked, and he suddenly exclaimed, "Ah!"

Cheng Feng and Xuan Ping both looked at him.

Jiang Zhou had an odd expression on his face.

"Come with me to the medical room for a check-up."

Since it was standard procedure to have a check-up after taking any potion, Cheng Feng didn’t think much of it and handed the potion back to Jiang Zhou before heading back to continue training.
