Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

This made her particularly difficult to approach.

However, the light laughter with a hand over her mouth at this moment finally gave her a touch of normal human nature.

She was no longer so aloof.

”Minister Zhang, is there something on my face? Why are you staring at me like that?”

”Huh? ...Oh.”

Zhang Beixing was snapped back to reality by this call.

”Nothing, I was just looking at you, suddenly reminding me of an old acquaintance.”

”An old acquaintance?”

Makely was stunned. Didn’t the records show that Minister Zhang seldom traveled abroad, and that all of it happened recently?

Makely, with her blonde hair and blue eyes, such distinctive features, made Minister Zhang think of an old acquaintance?

She couldn’t understand it.

Makely simply decided to stop thinking about it.

Since she was here, she might as well settle in.

From Zhang Beixing, she learned that her parents and daughter had already taken a flight to Great Xia, which gave her some peace of mind.

...

...

...

”What did you say???”

Huang Hai’s eyes widened.

At this moment, they were at the airport.

The plane carrying all the members of the Lanxi Country DE Organization branch to Great Xia had already taken off, and the second plane returning to Great Xia was preparing to taxi for takeoff.

This plane was a transport aircraft, and the equipment vehicles for the temporary command center of The Ninth Bureau were all on board, along with all the staff.

The last plane was a small business private jet.

This plane had just flown over from Great Xia, specially arranged by Zhang Beixing using his authority.

And the task Huang Hai and his team received was just assigned to them by Zhang Beixing.

They were to escort Makely’s daughter and parents back to Great Xia.

They were also granted a half-month-long vacation to unwind their tense nerves a bit.

This news greatly shocked Huang Hai and his team.

They all stared wide-eyed at Xu Feng.

Seeing Xu Feng’s helpless expression, their hearts were filled with indignation.

”No, I just don’t get it, why are we not allowed to go to Wu Country to fetch Leng Bing? The Minister going alone is one thing, but why does he have to take Makely?”

Huang Hai’s words became increasingly unrestrained, and his next sentence made Xu Feng’s eyelid twitch uncontrollably.

”Could it be that the Minister, as Siqi speculates, has fallen for these foreigners abroad? Planning to stay a bit longer and then bring back a mixed-race child?”

Xu Feng, originally full of helplessness, now directly wore a stern expression.

He looked at Huang Hai seriously, ”Do you realize what you just said?”

”If the Minister heard you, aren’t you afraid he would chew you out?”

”...”

At this point, Huang Hai knew he had spoken too much, so he closed his mouth.

He turned his head, sulking.

He truly held a grudge against Zhang Beixing for not taking him to Wu Country.

Xu Feng sighed inwardly, but as the team leader, although he also didn’t understand, he could only execute the task.

”Alright, stop pouting. The Minister roughly explained it to me. Makely insisted on going to Wu Country herself. Leng Bing is now critically injured and can’t withstand the bumpy journey back to Great Xia.”

”Wu Country’s current medical conditions also can’t guarantee Leng Bing’s survival. Makely is bringing the developed drug to forcibly enhance Leng Bing to a Grandmaster level, using the strong vitality of a Martial Artist to resist his current injuries, and that’s the only hope now.”

”The uncontrollable nature of the drug administration must have R&D personnel like Makely present to ensure success.”

”The Minister alone can handle the situation over there, our presence wouldn’t make a difference, so we’re told to go back and take a break.”

Xu Feng explained the situation.

Huang Hai felt slightly better after hearing this, but still said, ”Then why don’t we continue west? After Lanxi, it’s the Western Tooth Kingdom.”

”Why turn back? Isn’t there still the Willpower Country unsolved?”

”Leaving now is like giving ourselves a slap in the face, right?”

”Before, we proudly announced our westward campaign as The Ninth Bureau, and while there’s been no defeat, the resistance isn’t over, yet we’re packing up and leaving. Isn’t that embarrassing?”

At this point, Xu Feng couldn’t stand the kid’s incessant complaints anymore.

”Enough, stop buzzing around and start moving. Makely’s parents and daughter are already on board, let’s not keep others waiting.”

”Besides, we’re just going back temporarily, not dropping it altogether. Weren’t there as many as ten years spent in the Crusades in history? We’ve only used how much time? Why are you so restless?”

”Back when we were in Neon, if Minister Zhang hadn’t intervened, weren’t you being chased by the Lower Mouth Organization’s gunmen? Are you sure that without Minister’s attack on their headquarters, you would’ve survived?”

”In Wu Country, without the Minister throwing you all off at the crucial moment, would you have survived the Katyusha strike?”

”And...”

Xu Feng continued with a long speech, finally punching the kid in the chest.

”Big talk runs high with you.”

”If the Minister doesn’t accompany you, you can try charging into those deathtraps yourself, and I’ll see how many lives you have to spare?”

”...”

Xu Feng, usually a taciturn and honest worker, rarely spoke more than a few words when unnecessary.

But now, reprimanding Huang Hai, he delivered a full lecture, leaving Huang Hai speechless.

Huang Hai stopped his complaints.

In silence, he carried his gear and boarded the plane.

The other Extraordinary Reservists glanced at the two in surprise before also boarding the plane one after another.

Xu Feng was the last one to board. After all the team members were on the plane, he contacted Zhang Beixing.

”Minister, all personnel are now on board, I’m the last one.”

”Okay.”

The communication device conveyed Zhang Beixing’s calm voice.

”After returning to the country, complete personnel handover with Commander Zhang, and then disband and enjoy the vacation. I’ll contact you to regroup when I return.”

”Yes!”

After speaking, Xu Feng boarded the plane as the last passenger.

The small jet moved onto the runway and took off.

In a distant high-rise building, Zhang Beixing stood beside Makely, accompanying her in watching the plane ascend into the sky.

”Don’t worry, this is a plane from Great Xia, no one dares to mess with it.”

”Not to mention, this is The Ninth Bureau’s special aircraft. Anyone daring to tamper with these three flights will find me causing a huge commotion in their country, retaliating a hundredfold.”

Makely didn’t counter Zhang Beixing’s words. After watching the plane gradually disappear completely, she turned to look at Zhang Beixing.

”So, when do we set off?”

”Right away.”

Zhang Beixing said, leading Makely toward the train station.

By rights, planes should be the fastest means of travel.

Zhang Beixing didn’t avoid flying himself; even if someone hostile attacked the plane, he was indifferent, confident in surviving from thousands of meters above.

Getting injured was fine, as long as survival was assured.

But now, with a companion, Zhang Beixing could guarantee his safety but not that of the beautiful woman beside him.

The world’s eyes were many on Zhang Beixing now, and he wouldn’t ignore certain threats with overconfidence.

Trains were safer; whatever unforeseen events happened, Zhang Beixing could ensure Makely’s escape.

Now, Zhang Beixing was a hard nail, an iron board.

But Makely was a tempting lure, with many people watching.

At the train station, they bought two tickets.

The two then bid farewell to Tietuo City, beginning their journey to Wu Country.

Yet, even Zhang Beixing hadn’t noticed.

A group of people had mixed onto the train too.

By arrangement of interested parties, a group that bore no ill will nor recognized Zhang Beixing too well, was accompanying them on the train journey.
