Soul Land IV - The Ultimate Combat

Chapter 46: Growth

Ye Lingtong's home.

Ye Lingtong held onto a Soul Guidance Communication Device, sobbing spasmodically as she narrated her sorrowful experience to Ye Feng.

"Daddy, daddy, why did it turn out like that! I'm unconvinced. I should have won! Why did it turn out like that? My classmates said that it was because I like Lan Xuanyu and that's why I let him win. I don't like him, I want to win over him."

On the other end of the line, Ye Feng frowned. "No! You have grasped the fundamental control over the Celestial Body. Even if your spirit was suppressed, the response shouldn't have been that great. Wasn't it fine in the beginning? This is indeed strange and your Daddy doesn't want to make wild speculations. Don't cry. There isn't anything wrong with your Celestial Dragon. The problem should be with Xuanyu. Wait till Daddy comes home from his mission, we will comprehend his abilities in detail."

"Daddy, I want to win over him! You must teach me the way to beat him!" Ye Lingtong screamed into the device.

"Daddy is about to go into a meeting. We will talk more when I get back." With that, Ye Feng hung up.

"Commander, everyone is here." An officer with the rank of lieutenant walked over to Ye Feng and reported with a salute.

"Let's go, we'll start." Ye Feng's expression became calm and composed. At that moment, he was dressed in his military uniform with a solemn expression.

He entered the conference room where eight men sat around the table. Upon his entry, they stood from their seats and saluted him.

The conference room immediately plunged into a cold and somber atmosphere.

"Sit." Ye Feng waved his hand. Only then did the other officers take their seats.

Ye Feng then said, "I believe everyone has read through the data. Due to the urgency of this, we have to mobilize the Valiant Dragon Special Forces and to avoid the citizens from going into state panic, we need to end this fast. We will maintain radio silence on all Soul Guidance Communication Devices from the start till the end of the mission. Enable all of our internal comms. Intelligence will work with us and provide us with prompts and live information. I want all of you to prepare well for the battle ahead. We are faced against an extremely brutal and organized enemy with extremely strong anti-reconnaissance abilities. We cannot let any of these fishes escape, otherwise, it will bring about even greater harm to the public."

"Yes!"

To Lan Xuanyu, life was rich and filled with happiness. It had been that way ever since Nana came into his life.

In the day, he would attend classes and at night, he would train with Nana. Although it was tough, he felt that he was improving extremely fast, especially on the water element aspects.. Only the progress with his spirit power remained slow.

His happiest was his time during meals. Nana would bring home some queer and odd ingredients. Not only were they delicious, but he would also feel an extreme sense of comfort and coziness after he's done eating those foods. What's different was that Lan Xuanyu's food intake on these odd ingredients became more ordinary.

In the beginning, Nan Cheng would deliberately observe Nana but she quickly realized that Nana truly adored Xuanyu. Her expressions, especially the look in her eyes, could not be faked. It was a wave of emotions that came from her heart.

Adding that Lan Xuanyu was happy every single day alongside his improvements, she gradually became well at ease and went back to work.

On the tenth day of his departure, Lan Xiao made his first call with the Communications device to inform Nan Cheng that their operation was going well. He followed that they would jump through a wormhole to probe the new world. The next call would be in a month's time, and at the same time, the entire operation would continue on for half a year.
