Chapter 2533 - Homeland
2533 Homeland
Tang Xiao Xiao should know about the super nuclear bombs since she was there when Du Wei spoke about it. Duan Ling Tian thought Tang Xiao Xiao should have dealt with the super nuclear bombs on his behalf since he had been gone for such a long time. Moreover, Planet Yan Huang was not only his home planet, but it was also where her sect, the Tang Sect, had originated from. There was no reason for her to let the planet perish.
A hint of embarrassment appeared on Tang Xiao Xiao’s face when faced with the hopeful expression on Duan Ling Tian’s face. “I-I… followed you here after I saw you didn’t come back after a day.”
Upon hearing Tang Xiao Xiao’s words, Duan Ling Tian’s expression changed to one of regret. He really regretted not being able to save earth because he was too immersed in his cultivation.
Upon seeing how upset Duan Ling Tian, Tang Xiao Xiao could not hold back her laughter. Her expression of embarrassment had vanished completely. “Alright, I’ll stop joking with you. The truth is it’s only been ten days since you left Planet Yan Huang!” She had been joking when she said Duan Ling Tian had been in space for five years.
The regretful and sad expression on Duan Ling Tian’s face disappeared immediately. “You…!” He stared at Tang Xiao Xiao and pointed his finger at her. After a long while, he still did not manage to say anything apart from ‘you’. After all, he was truly affected by the joke. Up until a few seconds ago, he had thought that earth had been destroyed due to his carelessness. Naturally, it took him a while to process the fact that he had only been cultivating for ten days, not five years.
Tang Xiao Xiao shook her head before she said with a smile, “Alright! Stop stuttering… Go deal with the problem now!” Since she had met Duan Ling Tian, this was the first time she had seen him losing his cool. She decided not to prank him again in the future.
Duan Ling Tian truly felt angry and helpless earlier. He believed Tang Xiao Xiao when she said he had spent five years comprehending the Thirteen Green Lotus Swords. Before returning to earth, he looked at her solemnly and said, “Don’t joke about things like this in the future.”
…
It was as Duan Ling Tian had told Du Wei, it was not difficult for him to find the super soldiers responsible for detonating the super nuclear bombs as long as he expended a little effort.
Duan Ling Tian extended his Divine Consciousness, and after a day and a night, he managed to find all the super soldiers. He killed all of them, unwilling to leave any potential threat behind. He did not feel bad about killing them. After all, these super soldiers were also responsible for the loss of many innocent lives. After killing the super soldiers, he brought all the super nuclear bombs to space and detonated them there. A few mushroom clouds appeared from the explosions. Just like that, he managed to deal with the threat of the super nuclear bombs.
After dealing with the super nuclear bombs, Duan Ling Tian did some research on one of the top super soldier organizations, the Soul of Yan Huang, that belonged to Hua. “The Soul of Yan Huang and Long Zhenguo are truly formidable!”
Duan Ling Tian had also discovered Long Zhen Guo was his instructor in his past life. He did not waste any time and left for Hua with just a flash of his body. With his current strength, if he traveled at top speed, it would take him one breath to travel one round around earth. To return to Hua, it only took him one-tenth of a second.
“My country! I, Ling Tian, have returned!” Duan Ling Tian hovered in the air as he looked at Hua. He was in a daze as memories of his past life began to flash in his mind. Most of his memories were of his time training in the army.
“Bloodwolf, the death of Windwolf has nothing to do with you… Even if you were more cautious, at best, he would still end up in a coma. That would be even more torturous for him!” Duan Ling Tian remembered the words his instructor had said to him when he decided to leave the army.
Bloodwolf was Duan Ling Tian’s code name when he was serving in the Elite Wolf Fang Special Forces Army Division. Naturally, he did not use the code name once he left the army. After all, the person who replaced him would become the new Bloodwolf. He remembered Instructor Long, Long Zhen Guo, had tried his best to dissuade him from leaving. However, he was determined to leave since he could not let go of the fact that his mistakes had caused his partner’s death.
A wave of regret rose in Duan Ling Tian’s heart as he thought to himself, ‘If Windwolf didn’t die back then and fell into a coma instead, with the current advanced technology on earth, it’s not impossible for him to wake up.”
Back in the days, due to an incident during a cross-country SSSS level mission, one of Duan Ling Tian’s team members was killed. He could not stop blaming himself for his member’s death. In the end, it led to his departure from the army.
After some time had passed, Duan Ling Tian finally regained his senses. With just a thought, he disappeared from the sky. When he reappeared, he was standing outside a closed military base.
The military base was located in a mountain range, making it look like it was surrounded by iron fortresses. Normally, if the base was not opened from the control center, not even a fly could make its way in. Even the strongest super soldier would not be able to enter the base without permission. Even if by chance they managed to enter, they would not be able to survive since there were many elite super soldiers in the military base as well.
…
At this moment, a few staff in the military base had discovered Duan Ling Tian’s presence through the surveillance camera. “Who… Who is this?!”
All of them were stunned. This person had appeared out of thin air in front of this isolated military base.
“Wh-when did he come?”
“He can fly?! He’s been hovering in the air for a while now. Even the top super soldiers who manipulate wind can’t stay in the air for such a long time without the help of a flying equipment!”
“Maybe his flying equipment is hidden from sight?”
“Impossible! I’ve already scanned him. He doesn’t have a single electronics on him. He doesn’t even have a communicator!”
“What? He doesn’t even have a communicator? Well, he’s dressed in an ancient outfit. Is it possible he’s an actor who got separated from the filming crew?”
“An actor? Have you ever seen an actor capable of hovering the air for such a long time without the help of a flying equipment?!”
At this moment, the commotion in the control room was not dissimilar to the commotion one could hear at a Sunday market.
Everyone present on the scene looked at the surveillance intently. Their attention was focused on the purple-clad young man who was hovering in the air.
After a while, a few young female staff members looked at the screen like hungry wolves.
“I just noticed that he’s incredibly handsome!”
“Yeah! Look at his bearing… He’s like a god who has descended to the mortal realm. Compared to him, the good-looking male celebrities are just like pretty vases!”
The staff was still discussing among themselves with their eyes glued to the screen when a low and pleasant-sounding voice rang in the air, catching everyone’s attention.
“I’m looking for Long Zhen Guo, Instructor Long.”
Everyone in the control room fell silent immediately for a moment. Even the supervisor of the control center was slightly stunned.
“Where did the voice come from?!”
“I saw his mouth moving. It seems like he’s the one who has spoken?!” One male staff member pointed at the screen that displayed the purple-clad young man.
“There are no speakers installed. How can his voice be transmitted?”
“Long Zhen Guo… Isn’t that the leader? W-why did this man call him Instructor Long?”
…
“I’m looking for Long Zhen Guo, Instructor Long!”
Duan Ling Tian’s voice rang in the military base. Everyone in the military base heard his voice.
