Chapter 1938: Reporting Safety
Chapter 1938: Reporting Safety
It turns out Xiao Zheng was already here!
The attendants looked at Xiao Zheng, who descended from the sky, their hearts pounding wildly.
They were somewhat relieved now, thank goodness Hades just drove away those Bright Church experts. Otherwise, a bloody battle would have erupted in front of the Netherworld King Temple.
However, having not seen him for many days, Xiao Zheng’s demeanor had undergone new changes.
The attendants looked at Xiao Zheng, who was smiling, unable to associate him with the deeds of infiltrating the Temple single-handedly and killing Arthur...
"When did you notice me?"
"I originally wanted to surprise you. It seems the surprise wasn’t necessary."
Xiao Zheng said with a gentle smile after landing.
Upon hearing this, Hades’s face showed no signs of emotional change, as if they had just met yesterday, acting very casually: "I noticed you when you started approaching this place."
"Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come out."
Her implied meaning was that her reason for stepping out of the palace was largely due to Xiao Zheng.
The White Robed Elders alone weren’t worthy of her appearance.
Xiao Zheng chuckled, just about to say something, but saw Hades suddenly turn and walk towards the Temple: "Whatever you want to say, you can say it inside."
She turned definitively, leaving no chance for Xiao Zheng to speak.
With no choice, Xiao Zheng hurriedly followed.
Inside the Temple, it seemed unchanged from his previous visit.
Xiao Zheng pulled over a chair for himself and then looked at Hades, asking: "After seeing me, don’t you have any questions for me? Like why I acted against the Bright Church, or what I plan to do next?"
Hades shook her head upon hearing, saying: "I’m not interested in any of that."
"Why?" Xiao Zheng asked curiously.
Upon hearing his question, Hades looked naturally poised and said: "You chose to act against the Bright Church for reasons you cannot avoid. My role isn’t to question you but to support you."
This simple statement moved Xiao Zheng immensely.
"I knew you wouldn’t blame me for being rash." Xiao Zheng grinned and said, "So after the incident, I came straight to you without going anywhere else. But, I hope I didn’t trouble you?"
Upon hearing this, Hades shook her head and said: "Though the Bright Church is powerful, we of the Blood Clan aren’t pushovers either. If a war really breaks out, we can’t afford the consequences, and neither can they."
"It’s just mutual destruction, I get it." Xiao Zheng nodded and said, "Therefore, staying here with you truly is the best choice."
"You can stay here peacefully for the next few days. Although the Bright Church is angry this time, the matter will soon fade away." Hades said, "After all, it’s just a Saint Heir who died, and they have many of them anyway."
Sensing her disdainful tone towards the Bright Church, Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but laugh a little.
In truth, Hades’s aversion to the Bright Church is understandable.
After all, for countless years, the Bright Church and the Blood Clan have been mortal enemies. Even though the two powers now coexist peacefully on the European Continent, the hatred hasn’t faded.
"By the way, could you ask someone to arrange a room for me?"
"After flying for so long, I truly feel a bit tired."
Xiao Zheng said while yawning.
Hades nodded and then gestured for the attendants to guide him to a guest room for rest.
Once in the room, standing by the window, one could gaze at the towering snow-capped mountains.
Looking at the snow mountains, the scene of storming into the Frozen Cave to rescue Hades seemed to replay in Xiao Zheng’s mind. Shaking his head with a smile, he suddenly recalled something and hurriedly opened his phone.
Since the incident erupted, his phone had remained off.
As soon as the phone was turned on, the message alert sounded continuously.
Looking at the instant 99+ messages, Xiao Zheng felt a bit overwhelmed.
He casually opened the mailbox and saw messages from Long Qie and others inquiring about him. Apart from members of Sky Net, Leng Ruobing and the others seemed unresponsive, as if they didn’t know about his actions in Europe.
At this thought, Xiao Zheng felt a sense of comfort.
Leng Ruobing is his greatest concern now. As long as she isn’t aware of the incident, he feels happy.
"First, I’ll call Long Qie."
Xiao Zheng thought to himself.
Coincidentally, just as if it were telepathic, as he was about to dial Long Qie’s number, Long Qie’s call came in...
Sky Net Headquarters.
Upon connecting the call, Long Qie excitedly said to the nearby Evil Eyes and Titan: "Connected! Mr. Xiao’s phone finally connected!"
Upon hearing his words, excitement washed over Evil Eyes and Titan’s faces.
As for Xiao Zheng, upon hearing his shout, he felt somewhat bemused: "Well, the call is connected, why are you yelling so loud?"
Upon hearing this, Long Qie couldn’t help but retort: "Mr. Xiao, how can you say that! Because of you, the outside world is in chaos! Everyone is looking for you!"
"I know, don’t worry, I’m very safe now." Xiao Zheng replied, "I’m with Hades, here on Blood Clan territory. Although the Bright Church is domineering, they wouldn’t dare to search this place."
Knowing his words were true and learning he wasn’t hurt, Long Qie and the others finally felt relieved.
Xiao Zheng then continued: "Though things are fine here, I’m worried that the Bright Church might go to Huaxia. You all should have your brothers keep a close watch, especially on Leng Ruobing and the others, and make sure they don’t get into trouble."
"Don’t worry, since receiving the news, we’ve already arranged tight security for Miss Leng and the others." Long Qie said, "But this matter can be concealed for a while, not for a lifetime. Mr. Xiao, you should think about how you’ll explain this to Miss Leng."
"I’ll handle that, make sure you protect them well." Xiao Zheng stated, "As for my side, there’s no need to worry, I’ll be back within three days... or seven, at most seven days."
"Alright, but you must promise us to maintain communication during these seven days." Long Qie said.
Xiao Zheng nodded in agreement, and afterward, they ended the call.
