Chapter 438 - Pure Little Rabbit

Chapter 438: Pure Little Rabbit

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

A lieutenant general has been pushed out of the base by a soldier with just one push! The patrolling soldiers in the vicinity stood as dumb as a chicken at the sight of this shocking scene. This young lieutenant colonel is really too bold!

Lee Myeong-Jeong, sitting on the ground, was similarly stunned. Even Snake King would not have the courage to be rough with a lieutenant-general in broad daylight! He raised his head and glared at Qin Fen only to discover that the opposite party had already gone ahead without so much as a look back. He then turned his gaze at Zhao Huzi, his face full of questions; hoping to see how this lieutenant-general of East Asia would deal with this kind of offense against a commanding officer.

“Old Lee, what happened to you? How did you suddenly tumble?”

Innocence and curiosity had taken over Zhao Huzi’s face as if he was a pure and innocent rabbit. Zhao Huzi then raised his head and looked towards the marching ahead Qin Fen before speaking, “Qin Fen, what’s the matter with you? You had already reached out to hold him when you saw General Lee falling, but why did you withdraw your hand again? Even if you weren’t able to catch ahold of him, you should have helped him up after you have seen him fall!”

“You...!”

Lee Myeong-Jeong’s eyes were afire in anger. He fiercely glared at Zhao Huzi, who seemed rough on the surface but was intelligent without seeming so. His shout just now was heard by the petrified soldiers in the vicinity; clearly, it was to inform these witnesses. If Lee Myeong-Jeong dared to complain later, these people would answer according to Zhao Huzi’s remark.

This was Shengjing’s military base in Zhongzhou. All the soldiers here were basically Chinese. Obviously, they would listen to Zhao Huzi rather than Lee Myeong-Jeong, who was also a lieutenant general.

Lee Myeong-Jeong turned his sight to Bae Seong-Joon, the martial god of the State of Korea who enjoyed a high status in the State of Korea, only to see dark clouds gathered between his brow. In any case, Lee Myeong-Jeong was the one who brought him here; Qin Fen’s such conduct was tantamount to slapping his face.

“Yes, Sir.” Qin Fen turned behaved very politely; he lightly nodded to Zhao Huzi and strode out of the airport, without taking so much as a glance at Lee Myeong-Jeong.

“Sigh, youngsters as polite as Qin Fen are getting fewer and fewer these days.” Zhao Huzi sighed and shook his head and accelerated his pace to chase after Qin Fen; he, too, didn’t pay attention to Lee Myeong-Jeong, whose face had grown crooked in anger.

The onlooking soldiers in the vicinity turned around one after another; pretending to enjoy the scenery, making the atmosphere of the airport exceptionally strange for a moment.

Bae Seong-Joon walked up to Lee Myeong-Jeong and looked over the airport and said indifferently, his eyes having regained the calmness at the beginning, “Give up on your schemes. If a few words were enough to destroy his pre-war fortitude, then he would have long been overwhelmed by my aura of power.”

Lee Myeong-Jeong got up as he patted the dust off his body. He had indeed threatened Qin Fen’s sisters-in-arms to destroy Qin Fen’s confidence before the battle so that it would be easier for the Martial God of State of Korea to win. However, he had not expected Qin Fen, this young man, to grow to such an extent in just a year. Now, whether it was his martial strength or other things, they weren’t anything like what a late teenager of his age should have.

“Let’s go.” Bae Seong-Joon started walking towards the State of Korea’s aircraft parked not too far away. He still had many things to do in the remaining seven days, such as invite martial dao masters — the founders of various schools — who could be invited. In some sense, the matter this time was very important for the future development of Neo Taekwondo.

The Shengjing’s army headquarters was the same as when he had left, there was no difference. Qin Fen, looking at those emotionless eyes of Snake King’s behind the desk, discovered that from beginning to the end, there was nothing different about this big boss of the military headquarters, just like the military headquarters.

“Well done on your mission.” Snake King crossed his arms and rested his chin on them, “I already know about the matter of Bae Seong-Joon, do you really want to fight him?”

Qin Fen didn’t look even a bit surprised about Snake King knowing about this matter. As the important general of Zhongzhou, Shengjing was the center of his area of control. He should immediately retire if couldn’t even do this.

Snake King, looking at the silent Qin Fen, lightly pushed his crossed arms up, blocking the cheek under his nostrils as if a viper was hiding its preparatory posture before launching an attack. “Since you have chosen to fight, you don’t need to do anything in the coming days. As a long-time famous figure and creator of Neo Taekwondo, he naturally has something that makes him distinct. The true essence of Neo Taekwondo can’t really be explained by those disciples of his who aren’t even martial dao masters.”

Qin Fen slowly nodded his agreement. Having undergone the tempering of the Sahara desert, he came to truly know how strong Bae Seong-Joon was when he faced him this time. A person who had been monikered as a nation’s Martial God by every citizen of the State of Korea bore the expectations and glory of the entire State of Korea.

Bae Seong-Joon was an out and out martial dao master! Qin Fen had a very deep understanding of him after a brief contact.

“If you want to go into seclusion, you can go. All in all, you can do whatever you want to do.” Snake King continued slowly in an emotionless voice, “Alright, you can leave now.”

Qin Fen left the office after giving a military salute. He had been immersed in the million-year soul of the Sahara these days. He hadn’t had the time to notify Lin Liqiang to pick up the goods. Now that he had the spare time, he would see to it.

“Old Qin, I love you.”

Qin Fen, listening to Lin Liqiang’s voice over the new phone, had no choice but to remind him again, “Be careful, those things are very strange and their attacks are nothing to scoff off either.”

“I know, I know.” Lin Liqiang’s jovial laughter could be heard now and then. “Old Enz has shown me the True Inborn Blood Transfusion Rebrith diagram sent by you. I have not been batting about this year.”

Qin Fen forced a laugh. Lin Liqiang’s talent was there and according to the norms, his martial strength should have been very good, but unfortunately, he had been focusing on the biochemical beasts; owing to which, he was lacking many life and death experiences.

No matter how talented a martial artist was, he would be unable to reach his true apex if he was lacking life and death experiences. It was like how good any ore was, a peerless weapon could not be crafted from it if it had not been refined and forged a hundred, a thousand times.

A Lin Liqiang, who was lacking life and death experiences, was just like a good ore without any sort of refinement or tempering. Among his peers, it was really not that difficult for him to be a martial arts expert with his talent and life experience, but if he wanted to stand at the apex, it would be really difficult.

“I should have enough strength to hold two bugs, right?” Lin Liqiang rotated the chair under his buttocks. “Besides, I also have the help of my biochemical beast. So, I won’t be done in by two basic insect warriors, would I?”

Qin Fen had no choice but to admit that Lin Liqiang’s talent was enough to easily deal with the parasitic precursor insect warriors even if he had not achieved True Inborn Blood Transfusion Rebirth.

“Then that’s the end of discussion.” Lin Liqiang left the revolving chair. “I will be going to the Sahara first. You are busy, right? I won’t keep you any longer.”

Qin Fen hung up the newly purchased phone and looked up at the sky. Before going to Song Wendong for the marriage proposal, there was one thing that was needed to be done first, which was the house!

Qin Fen hadn’t forgotten what Song Jia’s father, Song Zhenthing had said to him, As a man, if you can’t even provide shelter to your beloved from wind and rain, it’s extremely selfish of you to let her suffer with you.

House , Qin Fen touched his pocket subconsciously. Previously, during his days in the army and the police system, he had killed a lot of terrorists. The bonus had already been sent into his pockets. In addition, there was his previous income and the income after he had entered the Sacred Martial Hall. Presumably, all his savings should be enough to buy a house as long as it wasn’t a luxury villa.

A marriage proposal without even a house... Qin Fen himself found it a bit unreasonable. Qin Fen immediately requested for an old mag drive flying car in the military compound. Next, he flew straight to the Huayuan district, following the automatic navigation system.

The real estate industry had become an ancient industry with the passage of time. No matter how many other industries had been replaced by the emerging industries, the real estate industry had always existed.

As a philosopher had once said, as long as humans exist in this world, even for a day, they would need a house to live, and as such, real estate would always exist.

After a huge real estate bubble, the house prices were relatively rational nowadays. Qin Fen had no need to be afraid of being scammed by the developers. If it was too expensive, he could check out the other districts.

The saleswoman was slightly startled when Qin Fen walked into the lobby of the sales office. The ranks on Qin Fen’s shoulder were simply too dazzling.

In the age where one would lose their civil rights if he or she didn’t enter the army, almost everyone had a certain understanding of the military ranks.

Lieutenant colonel! God knows how many soldiers of this rank were in the Federation army, but a soldier who was not even in his twenties carrying the rank of lieutenant colonel was rarer than those precious creatures such as the pandas and white-fin dolphins.

A lieutenant colonel of such a young age? The saleswoman was stunned for a moment; her professional smile soon returned to her face. She enthusiastically walked to Qin Fen. She knew very well that for one to carry the rank of lieutenant colonel in the Federation at such a young age, he or she would have to be a scion of a large military family; presumably, he or she should have a strong background.

“Sir, what kind of apartment are you looking for?” The saleswoman’s voice was very gentle and pleasant. She slowly continued with a professional smile, “Our community has opened not too long ago...”
