“Hmph, cat got your tongue?” Han Xuya raised her head proudly. “Don’t worry, I know my place. Plus, if it wasn’t because I miss Boss so much, I wouldn’t have drank anyways. Now that I can be together with Boss, why would I need to drink that foul thing?”
After hearing Han Xuya talk about being together with Boss so enthusiastically, Qi Long felt a bitter taste in his mouth.
It was probably because he wasn’t the one following Boss in the Lawless Lands. Qi Long finally felt the taste of being restrained by his responsibilities. He couldn’t do whatever he wanted. He could only restrain his desires while trusting Boss and comrades and do what was best for everyone.
On another front, Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran, who had been surveillancing Lingtian’s headquarters all this time, discovered Lingtian’s suspicious movements.
“I think there’s something going on.” Tang Ningyu put down the infrared binoculars and turned towards Mu Chaoran, who was laying down at the top of a hill.
“That definitely the case,” Mu Chaoran said confidently as he spat out the grass he was chewing in his mouth.
“What do you think it could be?” Tang Ningyu’s eyes brightened.
“Although they’re being very careful, the things they’re moving are still too much. As long as someone went in to investigate, they would definitely be able to find something odd,” Mu Chaoran said while in deep thought. “I don’t mind using the power of the Flying Dragon Special Forces to go investigate. I keep getting the feeling that it has something to do with him.”
Tang Ningyu nodded, “I also think that’s the case. But, during the time he doesn’t want to come back, what we need to do is to not expose him.”
Both of them knew very well who they were referring to as ‘him’.
“I think we should pay them a visit.” Mu Chaoran smiled somewhat devilishly.
“Perhaps we might accidentally find something.” Tang Ningyu also smiled.
At that moment, Lingtian was fully working in full force to help gather the supplies Ling Lan had requested. The people Qi Long sent to do the work were all veteran mecha operators and veteran logistics personnel who had followed Ling Lan from the very beginning.
Of course, these mecha operators were now team leaders of mecha teams, or at least deputy team leaders. The logistics personnel were almost all logistics team leaders and deputy team leaders.
In order to keep the secret from spreading, most these people, who usually delegate the work to others, didn’t bring any team members with them. At most, they would bring only the confidants they could 100% trust. Additionally, they themselves would do the work as well. The result of bringing less than the usual amount of people was that everyone was exhausted to the point where they couldn’t even stand. It reminded them of times when Ling Lan mercilessly pressured them. That taste of darkness, pain and being at death’s door they dearly missed.
For them, it tasted sweet as nectar. It was as though they had gone into the embrace of their mothers.

Seeing this, Zhao Jun and Lin Zhong-qing, who were leading them, could once again confirm these veterans were all masochists. They wouldn’t feel comfortable if they weren’t in pain.
Of course, only Boss had the qualifications to put them through that type of pain. This time, after hearing they were going to prepare supplies for Boss, they ran very fast, arriving at their destinations in the blink of an eye. They definitely didn’t have the unwillingness from the past when they were given a mission. In the past, when asked the reason for their laziness, they would say that they were old and needed to retire and that those types of assignments should be given to the younger soldiers to help them gather experience.
What they said wasn’t wrong, but they could say that so blatantly was because Qi Long and the others didn’t have Boss’s ability to make these veterans fully comply with their words.
Of course, when it came to major matters, these veterans wouldn’t drag Lingtian down. They would do what they needed to and also complete them with flying colors and perfectly. Qi Long and the others knew the reason they were so cooperative and hardworking. It wasn’t because of them, leaders only by title, but rather it was because of the commander they all admired, Ling Lan!
In reality, they only acknowledged Ling Lan as the only commander of the Lingtian Independent Army. Qi Long was a great representative, but that was it.
If Qi Long had even a single thought of changing the Lingtian Independent Army, those veterans would do things that would definitely hurt Qi Long’s feelings.
However, Qi Long indeed didn’t have any thoughts of changing anything. Seeing the army working so well with Boss, he admired Boss’s abilities even more. Even though Boss left, Lingtian Independent Army was still Boss’s independent army. It would still develop in the path he had designed and not stray into a different one.
“Going at this speed, the most we can cut is 2 hours. Do we need to choose a few more trustworthy people to go and help transport and load the supplies?” Han Jijyun said worriedly. The number of people they could use were too small in numbers. As luck would have it, the supplies Boss wanted were way too much. This time, the entire Jialan Ship was filled up. In order to create more space, the soldiers going with Luo Chao were cut to 2000 from the original 5000.
If it wasn’t for the fact that they were afraid of not having an ace mecha clan holding the fort and fighting off dangers, they would have taken out the entire mecha clan and made space for the supplies in the mecha hold.
“We can’t anymore people. The veterans we can trust are all here. Those who aren’t going are more or less unclear in terms of trustworthiness. We can’t take that risk. Plus, the more people there are, the bigger the commotion. It would also draw the attention of certain people. It wouldn’t be any good for us.” Qi Long shook his head and overruled the idea.
“If that’s the case, Luo Chao will be under a lot of pressure.” Han Jijyun was worried about their little sister.
“They will need to grow up sometime,” Qi Long said calmly. “Boss called Luo Chao for this mission probably because he thinks she has the qualifications to fly solo now.”
“You think so?” Han Jijyun asked with uncertainty.
Back in the day, Boss fully protected their two little sisters. Although he behaved in a secretive manner, they still knew Boss very well. How could they not have sensed that?
As for men like them, it was just cruel torture. They would be tossed into dangerous situations against dangerous people, and Boss wouldn’t hesitate even for a moment. Boss fully believed that their real potential could only be forced out at death’s door. It was a way of improving themselves in an explosive manner. Each one of them came out from those types of training alive. Facing death was already something they deemed as normal. If it wasn’t like that, they wouldn’t have used it either.
However, their Boss’s determined life-or-death training method completely collapsed when it came to their two little sisters.
When dealing with their two little sisters, the training amount was slowly changed. Boss was afraid if he had gone overboard, it might cause some permanent problems for their two little sisters (All the male underlings cried in pain. Why didn’t Boss worry about them having problems with their bodies). Not only that, when their two little sisters were training, Li Shiyu was waiting on the side. It was because Boss was afraid an accident might happen which required treatment at a moment’s notice (All the male underlings cried in agony once again. Why did they still have to crawl to the medical department by themselves for someone to save them after they only had one breath left in their bodies after the training?)
Not to mention, Boss had personally researched a training method that was suitable for their two little sisters. He even taught them the Ling family’s fighting technique (self-defense technique?) for females. This difference in treatment made these male underlings all look at their two little sisters with envious looks (Li Lanfeng did not express his jealousness, but he would bite on his blankets at night).
