Chapter 327: Heart Of The Strong

Chapter 327: Heart Of The Strong

Mi Xiaolin seemed not to have noticed the two of them; she had entered through the back door while talking to someone else.

Chu Ge and Qiu Wuji both released their spiritual senses to eavesdrop on the conversation:

“The number of passengers boarding the ship is increasing. Stay vigilant with security.”

“Understood.”

“Is the symphony orchestra ready?”

“They’ve already had their meals and are ready to perform at any time.”

“For those special guests, have a dedicated guide ready to fulfill all their requests.”

John, the assistant, spoke angrily, “It’s all because of that Chu Ge, he called the police and stirred the pot. Now we’re short on the best reception staff. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be so tight on resources.”

Mi Xiaolin sneered, “Oh, you know idioms too.”

John sneered back, “Bitch.”

Mi Xiaolin said calmly, “So what if I’m a bitch? Without me, would you have been able to execute your plan?”

John spat and remained silent. In truth, he was deeply wary of her. Her hidden strength and cruelty exceeded the imagination of most members of their organization.

When she first crossed the border and arrived in North America, she spent over a month at sea on a rickety boat. Nobody knew what she endured as a lone woman during that time. What people did know was that within an hour of her disembarking, every single crew member of the ship died, not a single one left alive.

The crew had gone to the bar after disembarking, and countless people watched as they enjoyed their drinks and food. Suddenly, their hearts and genitals seemed to explode like bursting butterflies, and they all died in an instant.

Mi Xiaolin had entered the country illegally, and the police had no knowledge of her existence aboard the ship. Consequently, they had no way to investigate, and the incident was treated as a paranormal occurrence and forgotten.

The police didn’t know, but the people in their organization knew very well. Since then, they avoided Mi Xiaolin like the plague. As long as they didn’t have any direct contact with her, she couldn’t use her butterfly supernatural ability. Then, she was just an ordinary woman who knew some martial arts. John and the others didn’t have to fear her, but they knew that a seemingly beautiful woman could hide so much cunning and ruthlessness.

This time, Robin’s mission in China didn’t originally include Mi Xiaolin. However, due to their organization’s mistake, Mi Xiaolin was temporarily called in to manage the operation. John was a little annoyed that she took over his leadership, but he could only curse her as a bitch, hiding his deep fear.

Mi Xiaolin continued in her calm tone, “The master has put me in charge here, so you all should listen to me. For the initial phase, don’t cause any trouble. Focus on building a stable operation for over a month before considering anything else. Now, we are the most legitimate sea music park in town, featuring the most beautiful scenery in Nanjiang. If we put on the right facade, whether it’s Chu Ge or that Qin Wuyang...”

Chu Ge was a bit hesitant, as he didn’t have this bourgeois disposition. However, the current situation seemed to provide no immediate reason to cause trouble. If they stirred up trouble now, Lin Wuyang would be after him as the troublemaker.

On the other hand, he was genuinely curious about what their plans were and was no longer interested in destroying everything.

“Then... let’s wait?”

“Sure, let’s wait.”

“So, why did we come here?” Chu Ge complained, “Did we really come to enjoy this music park?”

Qiu Wuji smiled, her eyes curving, “What’s wrong with that?”

“I’m not happy about giving them money.”

“Don’t be so stingy,” Qiu Wuji said. “From a business perspective, they provide a service, and we pay for it. It’s a fair transaction. In novels, the protagonist and the antagonist make deals all the time. Then, the antagonist hunts down the protagonist afterward, and the protagonist them and takes their loot.”

Chu Ge was speechless. “You can even relate it to that?”

Qiu Wuji said casually, “I think it’s quite similar.”

Chu Ge thought for a moment and realized that it did indeed seem quite similar. So, he temporarily set aside his intention to cause trouble and approached it as a regular trip to an amusement park.

With this change of perspective, his mood suddenly lightened, and he felt like he was on a romantic outing with a girlfriend. He found the surroundings beautiful and the music pleasant. With a change in mindset, the whole experience felt different.

“Have you always had these kind of thoughts? You’ve been smiling all along,” Chu Ge couldn’t help but ask her.

Qiu Wuji smiled faintly, “I’ve witnessed all sorts of situations for thousands of years. Why should I be nervous when entering a hostile environment? Even in the dragon’s den or the tiger’s lair, one can still appreciate their majesty. What’s more, facing a few individuals with abilities... Your current level of cultivation is sufficient, and you should have the heart of a true strong warrior.”

Chu Ge said, “I think I did pretty well in the book.”

“That’s right, that’s in your own world,” Qiu Wuji said. “You have an overview mentality. But in the real world, your mindset is too low. All you know is to bully me.”

Chu Ge: “...”

“Chu Ge, do you know? When I heard about the time you were furious and fought against the enemy, I was quite happy,” Qiu Wuji turned to look at him with glittering eyes. “Now, you lack a certain aura. Calling yourself the Creator ‘God’ is in vain. Makes it seem like you’re hiding in your own world, basking in your own glory. When you can look down on all mountains and see enemies as nothing more than heads on stakes, then even without the book, you will be a god!”
