1175 Naval Battle 1 (1/2)

Boom!

There suddenly came an explosion from the fierce battle over on Yuria's side. The sound traveled far away and it immediately attracted many people to look out of their window.

”It will be over soon,” Nine-tailed Fox whispered.

”Yeah... Vulture wouldn't want to attract too much attention,” Garen nodded. ”We should also go check it out.”

”You want close contact?”

”Why not?” Garen smiled and turned around to walk toward the door.

************************

Cough cough cough...

Yuria coughed violently with his head down. His entire body was covered with the dust from the explosion.

His sister, Yurijie, was still fine, holding the saber and covering a side of her nose.

Hai Feng had disappeared. He threw out a ball-like thing and instantly disappeared like a ninja. This caused the two to be completely unable to react in time.

”How did this guy flee?!” Yuria said helplessly.

”What do we do now, brother?” Yurijie approached him and asked feebly.

”It's alright. You have me,” Yuria recalled the writing on the note. ”Zhaotong City. If Mother is really there, let's go find her!” He said earnestly.

”Leave here?” Yurijie was a little saddened.

”Yea... We have no choice now, this is the only thing that can be done,” Yuria smiled wryly. ”Let's leave this place first and talk later.”

He took his sister's hand and quickly ran in the other direction.

Too many things had happened today. They had to find a place to collect their thoughts and think about what to do next.

They ran a few streets, took a cab, and went home.

Standing outside of their door house, Yuria and his sister were somewhat hesitant as they did not know if they should live there. Obviously, the other party had already found their home, so it was no longer safe.

”Take our money and passbooks, let's go to Zhaotong City!” Yuria spoke assertively.

”We can go to cousin brother....” Yurijie hesitated.

”Don't involve other people!” Yuria shook his head. ”This is our own matter.”

Yurijie bit her lip, and her cheeks slightly blanched.

”Brother, I'm afraid...” She gently leaned on Yuria's body.

Holding her sister in his arms, Yuria's face showed unprecedented steadfastness.

In a coffee shop in the distance, Garen and Nine-Tailed Fox sat together.

”They want to leave,” Garen frowned.

”Rest assured, they will come back,” Nine-Tailed Fox replied without any concern.

”I'm not sure about the details behind, but since we are now involved, I am afraid that the general trend of the events will be affected and changed,” Garen said frankly.

”What can happen just by following them?” Nine-Tailed Fox curled a lock of her hair with her right finger. ”In any case, you just have to stay here. He is now replacing the initial Unrestricted Combat Head Minister, Xian Tuguan's character, who is also super strong in Sword Art and has given out many pointers to Yuria and his sister in the enlightenment of martial arts. However, it's a pity that he went missing later on. He probably went to university after graduation and did not appear in the original Plot anymore.”

”Alright then, since you said so.” Garen nodded casually.

However, even though he replied as such, as he watched Yuria and the sister embrace each other, he kept feeling as if something was amiss.

”The feelings of these two little fellows are a bit too much...” He rubbed his chin. ”Am I too sensitive in this area?”

”Waiter, two more pots of boiled water,” Nine-Tailed Fox began to call out again.

”Nonetheless, aren't you the head of the biggest gang in the country? How come you appear to have nothing to do all day and just follow me everywhere?” Garen asked with a slight curiosity.

”What do you mean by having nothing to do?” Nine-Tailed Fox's eyes opened wide. ”Without your knowledge, I have already conducted a high-level exchange of information with the waiter, who is an intelligence officer. Through the simple act of asking for two more pots of boiled water, I have briefed the way to manage thirteen tasks and given the review comments of two major resolutions! It's just that you don't know!”

”Do you dare brag even more?” Garen was speechless.

”Thank you for your compliment,” Nine-Tailed Fox lifted her head like a cute little hen and laughed heartily.
