Chapter 81: Hunter Association President

“Miss Liao, long time no see.”

When an unfamiliar voice sounded, Liao Ning looked in the direction of the voice and saw a tall figure walking towards her against the morning light.

When Zhou Ling stood in front of Liao Ning, his protective posture made the person walking over chuckle. ‘Miss Liao, I didn’t expect that after not seeing you for a few months, Colonel Zhou Ling, one of the famous White Tiger Double Stars in the alliance, would become your guard.”

As the person approached, Liao Ning saw the other party’s face clearly. He was the president of the Planet Mu Hunter Association, Zou Xu, who had recruited the original host to teach the children on Planet Mu.

“President Zou, I didn’t expect you to still remember me after so long. Should I feel honored because of this?” Although Liao Ning said that, there was no smugness on her face.

According to the original host’s memory, the reason behind the original host’s death was that President Zou had informed the original host at the last minute to bring the children to the Moon-Catching Lake in the Misty Valley after the fog dissipated.

On the way to the Moon-Catching Lake, the original host and the children encountered the petrel that had gone missing.

As a high-level hunter, the original host could have escaped unscathed when she encountered the petrel, but because there were seven or eight weak children behind her who needed protection, the original host protected the children while defending against the petrel, which resulted in the original host’s death.

After Liao Ning transmigrated with the system, she encountered the petrel going berserk. Thanks to Zhou Ling, who had transformed into a white tiger, Liao Ning survived after she transmigrated.

When the original host encountered the petrel, she sent a distress message to the Hunter Association. However, even more than an hour after the original host died, help didn’t arrive.

Liao Ning looked at the Hunter Association’s President, who had a handlebar mustache and wore a black top hat and a proper gown. He looked like a refined middle-aged aristocrat. She didn’t believe that this President wasn’t involved in the Hunter Association’s negligence.

As Liao Ning looked straight at him, Zou Xu felt a little unhappy. For some reason, he felt that the current Liao Ning gave him a different feeling from the previous Liao Ning.

After the food competition ended yesterday, the lord from the capital planet sent him another message, in hopes that he could cooperate with the people he arranged to get rid of Liao Ning.

If this operation was successful, he would be transferred to the Hunter Association’s headquarters on the capital planet. The temptation of being transferred to the Hunter Association’s headquarters on the capital planet was undoubtedly huge for a branch president like him, who didn’t have any connections on the capital planet.

However, when he thought of the Su family, who controlled the strongest intelligence network in the entire alliance, and the eldest grandson of the Su family, Su MO, who was close to Liao Ning, Zou Xu was afraid that when the Su family found out about him, he might not even be able to keep the position of the branch president of Planet Mu’s Hunter Association, let alone go to the capital planet.

After thinking about it for the entire night, he decided to look for Liao Ning to see if Liao Ning suspected him regarding the petrel incident in the Misty Valley.

If not, he would be able to use the information that he could provide to Liao

Ning in exchange for greater benefits in the subsequent negotiations. However, Liao Ning’s attitude had already made it clear to him that she was already suspecting him, so his plan probably wouldn’t work.

“Miss Liao, please follow me to the Hunter Association. I have something important to discuss with you.” Zou Xu glanced at Zhou Ling, who was staring at him coldly, and added, “If Colonel Zhou Ling is interested, please come with me.”

Zhou Ling turned his head and asked Liao Ning in a low voice, “Are you going?”

“Yes.” In order to find out the truth behind the original host’s death, she naturally had to go. She knew that this was probably an extremely complicated matter.

The moment Zhou Ling started the flying car and followed the Hunter Association’s car, the system, which had been silent for a long time, sent a mission notification.

[Ding—Host, please head to Planet Mu’s Hunter Association safely. Reward: You will trigger and automatically complete the hidden mission to obtain clues about Liao Ning’s identity.]

This mission… this journey might not be uneventful!

“Ling, let’s be careful. I’m afraid the other party will play tricks.”

“Alright.” Zhou Ling didn’t say anything else. He just slowed down the car and paid more attention to the surroundings..
