It was actually… This girl!

In an instant, An Yao’s rage skyrocketed to its peak!

If it was not for this damn girl, how could she have been injured? How could she have acted amicably in front of so many people and lost all her face?

At the thought of this, An Yao wished she could tear Mo Chu apart alive!

“It’s you!”

An Yao gritted her teeth when she called out these two simple words. The anger in her eyes was about to burst out. If this anger had any destructive power, Mo Chu would have been burned to ashes by now!

“Why? Do you two still know each other?” Xie Chunxi’s gaze swept between the two of them as he asked with some doubt.

An Yao snorted coldly, “Of course! If it wasn’t for her, how could I have become like this?”

She wanted to see how this girl would explain it!

Without the fluster An Yao had expected, Mo Chu appeared exceptionally calm. She explained the situation in a concise and comprehensive manner. “At that time, we bumped into each other. She wanted to snatch my prey, but she could not defeat me. Instead, she was injured by me.”

“Oh!” Hearing this, Xie Chunxi couldn’t help but nod his head in understanding. “I was wondering, how did you get to know this girl? So that’s how it is.”

As he spoke, he casually glanced at An Yao’s wound, he patted Mo Chu’s shoulder in approval and lowered his voice. “Yo, your strength is not bad, you can even take down this girl!”

The An Family was also one of the top families in the Dark Ocean Galaxy. Among them, the most famous one was An Yao.

An Yao was the only girl in the entire family. Because of this, she had always been favored and eventually developed a willful and overbearing personality, this was something that almost the entire circle had heard of.

When she heard Xie Chunxi’s words, An Yao almost spat out a mouthful of blood!

Can’t you see the bloody wound on my abdomen?

She was clearly the victim, yet Xie Chunxi actually praised Mo Chu for doing a good job! f*ck! This person’s brain isn’t right, has his moral integrity been gnawed away?

Before An Yao could let out a breath of relief, Mo Yang gave her another heavy blow. It was as if he did not even see her, the injured person, as he circled around Mo Chu! “You guys even fought. How are you? Are you injured? Are you feeling unwell?”

“I’m fine, but what happened just now?”

“Nothing, it was just an accident, just now…” Mo Yang explained the situation clearly in a few sentences.

“Oh.” After hearing it clearly, Mo Chu could not help but show a little guilt on his face. “I’m sorry, I’m late…”

If she had not been immersed in observing the magical plants and magical beasts, she would not have wasted her time, this caused such a mess.

Before Mo Chu could finish her words, Ning Yiyuan interrupted her. He gently stroked Mo Chu’s head with his big, thin palm. “It’s okay, we just waited for a while.”

Zhong Wen, who was behind her, raised his head and stared at his Boss without saying anything.

In his heart, he could not help but grumble: This was plainly a double standard!

Back then, when they were training, the time slots were calculated in seconds. The training would double in time very quickly. It could be said to be inhumane!

The saddest thing was that apart from that, they had to face Ning Yiyuan’s cold face. Not to mention the coldness, Ning Yiyuan’s disdainful look made them miserable!

Looking coldly at the warm and harmonious people not far away, the fire in An Yao’s eyes burned even hotter!

Hmph! Just you wait!

Let’s see how much longer you can be arrogant!

“Don’t you think these people… look familiar?” The man who was supporting An Yao frowned slightly and asked hesitantly.

“Yes, I think so too…”

“Hmph!” An Yao snorted coldly and interrupted the woman’s words, “How can we not be familiar with someone who can hang out with Xie Chunxi? Maybe it’s someone from a small family who put down their pride and purposely stuck to him?”

That’s true! After hearing An Yao’s explanation, the man felt relieved, but he also felt that something was wrong.

“He’s finally here!” An Yao’s expression suddenly changed, and a hint of joy appeared in her eyes.

Who’s here?

The man turned his head and was startled.

This was the inspector who maintained order during the Hunting Festiva, rightl?

Could it be that An Yao was preparing to…

“How should we speak later… do you all understand?” Turning her head, An Yao looked at the two people beside her arrogantly. When she saw them nodding their heads, she could not help but smile.

Very good, she liked such sensible people.

“Inspector!” The man took a deep breath and shouted loudly, “Someone is injured!”

Injured?

Upon hearing these two words, the inspector did not dare to delay and immediately ran over. When he got closer to take a look, he took a deep breath!

Although he did not know these people, it did not prevent him from recognizing the vintage handmade clothes on them.

Just this thin piece of clothing might be worth half of his lifetime’s salary. Putting aside other things, someone who could wear such clothes was definitely a big shot that he could not afford to offend.

Such a big shot was actually injured within his jurisdiction? His luck was a little too bad! Thinking of this, the inspector could not help but show some worry on his face. With his small stature and small status, he could not withstand a single word from these big shots!

“It’s that person…” An Yao naturally did not have the time to guess what the inspector was thinking. She reached out and pointed at Mo Chu. “See? That girl injured me. You should be able to handle the rest, right?”

Following the direction An Yao pointed at, the inspector naturally saw Mo Chu as well. He could not help but stop in his tracks… how could such a delicate and weak little girl injure her to this extent? That was not possible!

“Hurry up and go!” An Yao glared at him angrily. The inspector did not dare to delay and immediately strode toward Mo Chu and the others.

“I received a report,” the inspector said with a business-like attitude. “It said that you injured someone in the Magical Region. Is that true?”

“Yes.” Mo Chu was stunned for a moment before he nodded and explained, “But she attacked me first, I just…”

“Since she has already admitted it,” An Yao walked over before Mo Chu could finish her sentence. She pointed at Mo Chu with her long finger, “Why aren’t you arresting this person?”

Seeing that the inspector was still hesitating, An Yao’s face could not help but darken, “Why, do you need me to inform your superior to handle such a small matter?”

“No, no!” After hearing An Yao’s words, the inspector did not dare to hesitate anymore. He immediately walked up to Mo Chu and said, “I’m sorry, about that… can you come with us?”

“My friend was just defending herself. She didn’t mean to hurt anyone. Why would she go with you?” Xie Chunxi stood up and said resolutely. He then turned around and glared at An Yao. “Don’t think that you’re the only one with someone behind you. If we’re talking about relationships, it’s not certain who will win or lose!”

It was only then that the inspector took a closer look at Xie Chunxi and the others. Then, his heart trembled again! Although these people were not wearing vintage handmade clothes, judging from their clothes, they should not be ordinary people either.

Aiyo!

This was really a fight between old fogies. He was doomed!

The inspectors could not advance forward, nor could he retreat. He was stuck between a rock and a hard place.

“Xie Chunxi, do you really have to go against me?” An Yao gritted her teeth and asked.

“Tsk, who are you?!” Xie Chunxi’s face was full of arrogance. “How would I have the time to go against you? I’m clearly doing this for Little Chu, okay? Don’t flatter yourself!”

An Yao’s face was white and red after Xie Chunxi’s retort! She immediately turned to look at the inspector beside her and said sternly, “Isn’t this your job? Hurry up and arrest her! What are you standing there for?”

“Besides, no one in the An Family dares to release the person we want to arrest!” The meaning behind her words was clear. An Yao was prepared to use her power to oppress him!

However, she did have the capital to do so. After all, the An Family’s deepest roots were in the judicial and law enforcement departments. At this moment, Mo Chu just happened to bump into him!

Even if Xie Chunxi’s family had power, it was beyond their reach. Moreover, Mo Chu was only friends with Xie Chunxi. Whether he was willing to become enemies with the An Family for an outsider like her was still an unknown question!

Upon hearing this, even if the inspector was a hothead, he understood that the injured girl in front of him was the little princess of their Boss, the An Family!

Great! Now, he knew what to do.

“Miss, Let’s go.” The inspector took two steps forward. The binding bracelet on his hand was faintly discernible. Obviously, if Mo Chu did not cooperate, he could only use force!

“What do you mean?” How could Mo Yang allow his sister to suffer such grievance? “My Sister is defending herself, not hurting others. Can’t you tell the difference between these two things?”

Seeing the unconcealed anxiety and anger on Mo Yang’s face, An Yao could not help but recall her earlier feelings. She became even angrier, “Defending? Hurting others? Hmph! The two people beside me can testify!”

“That’s right.” Facing everyone’s burning gazes, the woman beside An Yao could no longer remain silent. “Yes, it’s this woman. Yes, it’s Mo Chu. She took a fancy to our Five-colored Sparrow Beast, and when everyone wasn’t paying attention, she attacked An Yao and took away our magical beast.”

“If everyone doesn’t believe me, you can see if this magical beast exists in her terminal.”

“Yes! I can also… testify.” The other man also nodded, strengthening the credibility of this testimony.

Once these words were said, the inspector’s face looked much better.

Now that there were witnesses and evidence, it could not be slander, right? “Then Miss Mo Chu, can you show us the storage directory of the terminal?”

“… no need to look, I do have it.” Mo Chu nodded. “But what does this mean?”

“What does it mean?” The inspector finally regained his confidence. “It means that you have a motive to hurt someone! Besides, Miss An already has two witnesses. What about you?”

At that time, there were only four of them in that corner. The two of them were slightly startled. One was the plaintiff and the other was the defendant. Where else could she find someone to support her?

Mo Chu could only remain silent.

“Then there’s nothing we can do.” The inspector pouted. “I’m afraid you won’t be able to avoid this trip.”

“Won’t be able to avoid it? Hmph! Is this how your Dark Ocean Galaxy officials do things?” Ning Yiyuan snorted coldly. He took a step forward and wrapped his arms around Mo Chu, protecting her.

His cold face was tainted with a hint of ridicule. He pointed her finger at the man and woman beside An Yao. “These two are clearly An Yao’s people. Can you believe the words of a common crook? Or are the Dark Ocean Galaxy’s people deliberately bullying us?”

“You… aren’t from the Dark Ocean Galaxy?” The inspector was stunned, and a bitter expression appeared on his face. If this involved an interstellar dispute, then it would be even harder to resolve.

Ning Yi Yuan’s straight back faintly carried the aura of a soldier. Hearing this, his eyes could not help but sweep over slightly. “We’re from the Federation Galaxy.”

Oh… so it was people from the Federation!

…

Wait a minute!

The inspector’s expression suddenly froze.

He raised his head and sized them up a few more times, his voice slightly trembling. “You… aren’t you that Mo Chu? And you, aren’t You Marshal Ning, Ning Yiyuan?”

“No.” Ning Yiyuan shook his head seriously.

Hearing this, the inspector could not help but heave a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to say something, he was choked by the second half of Ning Yiyuan’s sentence. “I have already been promoted to Commander, not Marshal. Thank you!”

“Cough cough!” The inspector almost knelt down to him. Please, this was not the time to make a cold joke, okay? This rise and fall almost gave him a heart attack!

The lingering heat from the ‘Lan Lian crash incident’ had not dissipated yet because this incident involved three galaxies and inevitably caused a heated discussion among everyone. The inspector and his colleagues had also discussed this matter previously.

They all agreed that the power behind this Mo Chu was definitely not small. Otherwise, would he be able to make Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s princess a prisoner? Mo Chu was definitely not ordinary!

Who would have thought that he would bump into a real person not long after they started chatting?! Plus, under such circumstances!

However, this person who had just torn Wisdom Cloud Galaxy apart, now it was their Dark Ocean Galaxy’s turn? Oh, this is crazy!

It was also at this moment that the man beside An Yao also realized that something was wrong.

Looking at their temperament, he thought, ‘How could they be from a small family? No wonder I feel that these people looked familiar. I just saw them on the news half a month ago!’

“This matter… I’m afraid I can’t get involved any further.” After knowing the identities of Mo Chu and the others, this inspector did not dare to interfere anymore. If this matter was not handled properly, not to mention his small official position, he might not even be able to keep his life! “Why don’t we hand her over to the embassy?”

“Hmph!” How could An Yao agree? She snorted coldly and said, “Either you take this girl away now, or I’ll get someone to take you away. You can choose one!”

Oh no… The inspector almost cried. Why was he the only one who was unlucky enough to encounter such a thing?

Fine! He was going to die either way. Who knows, he might even find a way to survive.

After thinking it through, the inspector could only use Mo Chu as an example. “Um… why don’t you come with me?”

Seeing this, An Yao could not help but smile smugly.
