CHAPTER 89: CHAPTER 89: HIS RUAN RUAN CAME TO HIS THIRD LEGION LOOKING FOR ANOTHER MAN?

"Commander!" Lin Tianxian hurriedly called out, quickly saying, "Some things are best kept between the two of you!"

He still wanted to keep his little life safe! He didn’t want to know things he shouldn’t know!

Lu Shinian paused, realizing he was right.

The matters between him and Ruan Ruan didn’t need outsiders to judge.

No matter what, he couldn’t let Ruan Ruan leave.

Even if Ruan Ruan...

Lu Shinian’s eyes darkened, unwilling to continue the thought.

He looked at Lin Tianxian, directly changing the subject, "Have you found what I asked you to investigate?"

Lin Tianxian wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, quickly replying, "Not yet, but I’m doing my best to find out."

"I borrowed that Level 2 Energy Stone from Xia You and plan to study it."

"Hmm." Lu Shinian responded lightly, with a hint of command, "Do it quickly."

"Yes!" Lin Tianxian gave a military salute, respectful and obedient.

Lu Shinian quickly left the special medical room, leaving Lin Tianxian to let out a long breath, legs a bit weak as he leaned against the table, slowly sitting down.

He couldn’t believe Su Ruan looked so small and skinny, but had such guts to cheat on the Commander.

Incredible, incredible, truly people can’t be judged by their looks.

But seeing the Commander like that, the infidelity might not have succeeded, otherwise, the Commander might have gone mad.

Lin Tianxian quickly shook his head, not daring to think further, and soon entered the Second World to continue studying the Level 2 Energy Stone.

————

In the Second World, Su Ruan was purifying a Level 2 Energy Stone.

The black mist swirled within the Level 2 Energy Stone, and with her influence, surged towards the edges.

Su Ruan’s forehead beaded with sweat, dripping down to her long lashes, trembling before falling onto her hand.

Her hand quivered slightly, and in a moment of distraction, she pulled all the black mist from the Level 2 Energy Stone.

Su Ruan withdrew her spiritual power, letting out a long breath.

Beside her lay two previously purified Level 2 Energy Stones. Including the one in her hand, she had purified three today.

She had made significant progress compared to before. She wondered if now she could purify a Level 2 Energy Stone in reality without draining her spiritual power.

Su Ruan pondered silently, planning to rest well tonight and try tomorrow. If successful, next time Lu Shinian’s Ancestral Stage acted up, she could use that chance to let him absorb some energy from a Level 2 Energy Stone.

Su Ruan considered, then put a Level 2 Energy Stone in the automatic sales area, with a detailed description still just one sentence: [Impurity content 5%]

Meanwhile, in the automatic sales area.

Invincible Little Overlord saw the item listed, didn’t even look, and directly paid with his single-for-years hand speed.

When the system prompted a deduction of one million Virtual Coins from his account, Invincible Little Overlord was dumbfounded.

Wasn’t it supposed to be one hundred thousand per stone? How did it become one million?

He opened his item list and found it was actually a Level 2 Energy Stone?

Level 2?

"Damn! Who? Who was so fast that I didn’t even see it clearly before it got bought!"

"Strange, isn’t it supposed to be listed only once a day? Why were there two listings today?"

"I saw, this time they listed a Level 2 Energy Stone."

"What!"

........

The rise and fall of discussions echoed in Invincible Little Overlord’s ears. He couldn’t care about anything else, quickly pretending nothing happened and swiftly leaving the automatic sales area.

He soon returned to his rented place and took out the Level 2 Energy Stone.

From the outside, this Level 2 Energy Stone seemed no different from the ones he had encountered before.

Invincible Little Overlord tentatively absorbed the energy from this Level 2 Energy Stone. In a daze, it felt like a gentle breeze brushed by him, or like sprouts emerged from barren land, or like spring rain fell on a desolate desert.

This nourishing and enriching feeling made Invincible Little Overlord let out a comfortable sigh. Holding the Level 2 Energy Stone, he lay straight on the ground, unwittingly falling asleep.

When he woke up, the redness in his eyes had significantly faded.

He clearly felt his physical state was better than last time when he went to the Third Legion to clear impurities.

Seeing the energy stone in his palm turned to powder, Invincible Little Overlord’s eyes brightened, deciding to continue lurking in the automatic sales area.

He had a hunch, his Ancestral Stage would soon disappear!

Su Ruan had just logged off when she received a message from Teacher Ye Chong in the Logistics Department, who usually didn’t contact her.

Ye Chong asked her to go to school immediately. She notified Lu Shinian and then hurried out, heading to the Second Military University.

After arriving at the school, Su Ruan went straight to Ye Chong’s office.

Ye Chong had been waiting for her. Seeing her, he handed her a USB drive, saying, "I remember you’re married to the Third Legion’s Commander, Lu Shinian."

Su Ruan glanced at the USB drive and nodded.

"Perfect, take this to Qian Duoduo in the Third Legion’s Logistics Department." Ye Chong said, "Oh, right, I forgot to introduce you; Qian Duoduo is also my student, your senior."

"He drew a card for weapons research back then and has been in the Third Legion doing weapon research all these years."

Su Ruan: ...

So this teacher’s teaching style had been like this all along.

"Teacher Ye, why don’t you give it to him directly?" Su Ruan curiously asked.

"Too lazy to run." Ye Chong waved his hand, "Besides, not everyone can enter the Third Legion."

"You deliver it today."

"Remember, it must be delivered in person, no mailing!"

Ye Chong specifically emphasized, "There’s only one copy of the data on this USB drive; if lost, you’ll face a military court."

Su Ruan’s grip on the USB drive tightened slightly.

"Yes!" For the first time, she felt pressure.

Ye Chong waved his hand, "Alright, hurry up, and text me when you’ve delivered it."

"Okay." Su Ruan put away the USB drive, quickly left the office, and got on the hovercar, heading to the Third Legion.

Along the way, she sent a message to Lu Shinian, saying she was almost at the Third Legion.

When the hovercar stopped, she saw Lu Shinian standing at the entrance of the Military Department.

As Su Ruan got out of the car, Lu Shinian had already walked over, taking her hand with a smile at the corner of his lips, "Ruan Ruan missed me?"

Still thinking of the task Ye Chong gave her, Su Ruan honestly shook her head and said, "No, I’m here to deliver something to Qian Duoduo."

Lu Shinian’s grip tightened, his eyes instantly turning cold, "Looking for him?"

His Ruan Ruan, coming to his Third Legion, looking for another man?

Heh.
