Chapter 69

For My Sister's Sake

After giving her speech, Zhou Ruoxi returned to the plane, dusted herself off, and left.

Millions of raindrops suspended in the air suddenly fell.

She was just saying things to keep the peace; nobody really cared about the 6000 bait fish that were being baited.

If you do something good, you get a reward when you come back; if you die, so be it.

A month later, the deceased's wife will be matched with someone in the system, and the child will be taken in by the Imperial Maternal and Child Hospital, becoming an orphan without parents. It's an efficient yet ruthless era.

"Okay, please have the team leader take the class to the main gate parking lot to get in the car. The law enforcement officers accompanying the trial are already waiting at the entrance."

"Hurry up, all of you. Try to enter the cave during the day. It will be much more dangerous for you when the White Walkers come out to hunt at night."

The association's chairman, Zhao Zekai, urged them on.

Sixty teams departed in a grand procession, with parents and relatives silently accompanying them. There was no noise, only heavy words of advice.

Many parents who have exhausted half their life's income to raise their children are now left only to weep in secret.

In the process of climbing upwards, there is a 99.99% chance that those at the bottom will become cannon fodder. Only the one in ten thousand can step on the corpses of their kind and defy fate.

When they arrived at the parking lot, everyone said their reluctant goodbyes.

Looking at Ye Rou touching her belly, Yang Ding felt a pang of reluctance. He pulled her into his arms and kissed her forehead.

"I will definitely come back."

Ye Rou hugged him tightly, and their affection level was about 30%, which may not seem high, but it is an extremely high number in any marital relationship.

Fang Jing walked to his side and emphasized like an older sister.

"You're going to be a father, your own life is the most important thing. Even if it's Mao Jian, you can't risk your life for him."

"Yes, I understand."

As Yang Ding spoke, he pulled Fang Jing over, hugged her, and kissed her.

With everyone watching, Fang Jing was too embarrassed to struggle and could only let him take advantage of her.

Sure enough, once she started, she started again. This new husband was far more cunning than her deceased husband.

They promised everything before marriage, but after marriage they completely broke their promises.

"When you get to the cave entrance, see if my brother is there. If he is, then it's revenge."

"Understood. He's my brother-in-law, he's family. He'll be fine."

Yang Ding tried to kiss her again, but Fang Jing had no choice but to turn her head away and push him away, pointing to the area outside the venue.

"That fat guy keeps staring at you, is he your classmate from the farm?"

Yang Ding turned around and saw that it was indeed Hu Feng.

Seeing that Yang Ding was saying a tender goodbye to his two wives, he felt embarrassed to disturb them and decided to turn around and leave.

The two hadn't seen each other for a month, so Yang Ding rushed over.

"Hu Feng, are you here to see me off?"

Hu Feng was a little reserved. He handed over a package, saying, "This is half a roast suckling pig that I made. It's your favorite food. Take it with you as provisions."

"it is good."

Yang Ding accepted without hesitation. Hu Feng liked cooking and originally wanted to become a chef, but his wife insisted that he study sow care.

"No one's bullying you now, right?"

"No, my back injury is also recovering, thank you!"

Of all the people, only Hu Feng vaguely felt that Yang Ding had helped him eliminate Xiang Bin.

He didn't mention it to anyone, not even his wife.

Yang Ding stuffed a Qi-Nourishing Pill into his hand, "Alright, I'm leaving now. I'll come visit you when I have time."

"I've heard there are ghosts underground. Take care, brother."

"I won't die."

Yang Ding hugged his two wives again before getting into the car and counting the number of people.

This time the treatment was much better; we were traveling on a super bus with a hundred seats.

After leaving the university, the 600 buses dispersed to investigate 60 ghost caves in the suburbs, feeding 100 people to each cave.

Yang Ding looked back at the gradually disappearing university buildings and felt a deep sense of happiness in sleeping with his wife in his arms.

They had just broken up when the system popped up a notification that their affection level had increased.

First Wife: Ye Rou

【Affection Level: 29%↑, +0.5%】

[Cultivation Progress: 30.8%↑, +0.5%]

[You have broken through to the upper level of the second rank, your punching strength has increased by 11122 jin (approximately 1000 catties).]

[The first move of the Nine Sword Styles, the Sweeping Sword Style, has been unlocked; experience points increased to 82%.]

Not only Ye Rou, but Fang Jing, who had always kept her distance from him and was very cold to him, also started to show affection.

Second wife: Fang Jing

【Affection Level: 2%↑, +1】

[Cultivation Progress: 2%↑, +1]

[Mental Strength: 10 points]

[Portable Realm Technique, Level 1, 3%↑, +1%]

[Void Rift Technique, Level 1, 2%, +1%]

[First level of the Void Escape Technique, 2%, +1%]

Please practice diligently to improve your control over your mental power.

"I told you, a forced kiss works, doesn't it?"

Yang Ding was very pleased with himself.

He discovered that this system could not only be used for cultivation, but also to monitor his wife's attitude towards him, which was amazing.

Even if he married a woman who was just playing around, he couldn't hide it from her.

With so many wives in the future, this will practically be a polygamous management system.

If the intimacy level is slow to develop, find an opportunity to increase the intensity.

The carriage was very quiet. Even the usually lively Mao Jian became silent, gripping the hilt of his knife tightly in his hand.

Only Huang Bingbing remained calm, painting her nails and occasionally humming a strange tune in a cold, eerie tone.

Xiang Tianyou, on the other hand, acted like a sycophant.

"Bingbing, are you thirsty?"

"Bingbing, shall I apply it for you?"

"Sister Bingbing, let me help you apply it. I'm the best at this," Sun Li said.

Huang Bingbing completely ignored them.

It took about two hours for the car to exit the city through the North Gate, where the 100-meter-high North City Wall was built along the river.

Fishing boats can occasionally be seen fishing on the river, while water-based ability users from the law enforcement team patrol and escort the boats.

The bridge spanning the river has been in disrepair for years, with its steel frame covered in rust and its surface overgrown with weeds. Across the river are towering, abandoned buildings.

This was once a bustling city.

On the screen in the carriage, a speech by Zhao Peng, the General of the Northern Guard, was playing.

This guy is the one who wanted to marry Fang Jing as his seventh wife.

"Dear students, you are about to arrive at Huangji Sluice Gate, which is an important water source entrance for Jiangling City."

"The White Walkers also need water. The enforcement team discovered many ghost caves on the shore, some of which even lead directly to the underground utility tunnels of Jiangling City, posing a direct threat to our survival facilities."

"Your mission this time is to find the Queen of Demons' stronghold and eradicate it completely."

"The empire needs you, the people of Jiangling need you, your families need you. Fight on, children."

Half an hour later, the bus stopped in a spacious area by the river.

One vehicle had already arrived ahead of schedule, indicating that this was an important entrance, and they were actually going to send in two hundred supplies.

The law enforcement team also had four patrol cars parked nearby.

Yang Ding spotted his brother-in-law, Fang Dalong, who was looking around.

The fact that a law enforcement team of over 100,000 people would act so coincidentally is clearly a case of using public office for private gain and deliberately retaliating against Fang Jing.

"I heard that only ten law enforcement officers are sent to each class," Mao Jian said.

"If they wanted to send more law enforcement officers, they wouldn't have let us go scout ahead."

Judging from Fang Dalong's rank, the law enforcement officers sent down this time were also of relatively low rank, serving as bait as well.

Fang Dalong may lack talent, but he is still smart. When he saw Yang Ding, he was completely dumbfounded.

"What a coincidence?"

"Didn't I tell you your class before?" Yang Ding asked.

"No, just tell me to wait."

"Who gave you the order?"

"General Zhao of the Northern Guard."

"Damn it," Yang Ding cursed.

"Don't worry, I'll protect you for my sister's sake," Fang Dalong said.

"My brother-in-law likes your confidence."
