403 By the Order of City Lord Wang! (2/2)

”Do it! If anything happens, I'll take full responsibility!”

Upon hearing the decisiveness in Wang Baole's voice, a murderous intent flashed in Kong Dao's eyes. He immediately gave the orders to strike, and a fight was about to break out at any moment now. The Zhuo family didn't fear battle, but they knew they would lose. Their enemy had Kong Dao, had Zhao Yameng, had the military; they had three Core Formation realm cultivators who had their own political backing. The Zhuo family was at a disadvantage.

The Federation President, the Federation military, the Martian Colony Governor, and Wang Baole… damn it, Zhuo Yixian, are you trying to get the entire family clan killed?At that moment of intense pressure and tension, the head of the Zhuo family took in a deep breath. He made a choice for general stability and stopped both parties from fighting. He didn't make a personal appearance, but he had someone bring Zhuo Yifan out.

However, the same moment that Zhuo Yifan appeared outside, a surge of late-stage Core Formation realm cultivation and the spirit energy of a ninth-grade Dharmic Armament erupted from the Zhuo family's backyard. The sudden eruption of the spirit energies almost transformed the heavens and earth. Thunder rumbled and formed an overpowering presence in the air. It surrounded Zhao Yameng, Kong Dao, and their people.

It appeared that it would be an easy feat for this Core Formation realm cultivator of the Zhuo family to wipe them all out. However, he had only given them a slight taste of his power before his presence disappeared. It was both an attempt to terrify and shock, and a message to everyone watching—the Zhuo family was handing Zhuo Yifan over not because they were afraid, but because they placed the greater good in higher priority!

As they handed Zhuo Yifan over, the elder who had been charged with handling this matter also tactfully explained that they weren't the ones responsible for the current situation. Someone else had brought Zhuo Yifan to them.

The matter could be said to have reached an end. It had been a storm that had rumbled loudly but had yielded petty raindrops. Those who had been observing the affair weren't surprised, as anyone would submit when faced with the combined force of these political forces.

Zhuo Yifan looked pale, but Wang Baole's rescue had been in time. He was slightly injured but generally unharmed. He was clearly in low spirits, however. The last shred of familial feelings he had for the Zhuo family seemed to have vanished.

No one knew what he had gone through during his brief imprisonment. He didn't say a single word. Even Zhao Yameng couldn't get anything out of him. It was clear though, that Zhuo Yifan had gone through something tremendous during these few days, and that it had been a huge blow to him.

During the silent trip back, Kong Dao suggested that Zhuo Yifan make a trip to Mars, but Zhuo Yifan shook his head.

”Help me tell Baole that I'm not going to Mars. I'm going to the Moon. I'll be training there, and I won't return until I reach the Core Formation realm!” Zhuo Yifan said that with stubbornness and determination in his eyes.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Kong Dao sighed when he heard Zhuo Yifan's decision. Before he left, he said suddenly, ”You can consider making a trip to the Sea of Beasts. If you really wish to seek a breakthrough in your cultivation by putting yourself in extreme danger, the Sea of Beasts would be a more suitable training ground compared to the Moon!” Then, Kong Dao cupped his fists and saluted Zhao Yameng, turned, and led his men away.

He had once admired and felt something for Zhao Yameng. However, at present, he had a clearer understanding of his heart. What he desired was to embark on a journey to become a powerful cultivator. It was a harsh and challenging path, and he couldn't afford too many distractions and commitments. That was why he had chosen to keep these feelings deep in his heart and turn away from Zhao Yameng.

He didn't immediately leave Earth for Mars. After splitting up with Zhuo Yifan, he began an investigation on the Zhuo Yifan incident. He used his connections and even contacted Jin Duoming. Finally, he traced whatever slight clues he had and found evidence that the cause of everything was Chen Mu!

He boarded the cruiser headed for Mars and sent the outcome of his findings to Wang Baole. The cruiser lifted off into the skies, marking the end of his mission!

Even though the entire mission happened over a brief period of time, it still caused quite an uproar in the Federation. Everyone—the four Dao Colleges, the Senate, and the other political forces—who had witnessed the outcome of the fiasco turned their eyes towards Mars at the same time.

The political forces had only had eyes on the Martian Colony Governor when they considered Mars. Now, someone else had entered the picture. He was only at the Foundation Establishment realm, but he was able to get someone to head to Earth to carry out a mission with a single order while he was still on Mars. He had the support of the military and the Martian administration as well as the implicit approval of the Federation President. Everything… pointed to the fact that this new rising star on Mars had risen to a level where his importance could no longer be disregarded!

To Wang Baole, this mission showed his displeasure towards the Zhuo family and his desire to save his friend. To the other political forces… this was Wang Baole's attempt at displaying his power. To them, he was using his own way to tell everyone that regardless of which political force it was, he, Wang Baole, and his family and friends, weren't to be easily messed with!

If you dared touch them, he would show you he was equally unafraid to show you what he was made of!
