Chapter 397
It has been more than ten days since Ning Xuan returned to the Central Star. After this period of recuperation, her injuries have completely recovered. After these days of research, she has improved the pollution removal agent several times and finally developed a universal pollution removal agent that can target most pollution sources.
Ning Xuan sent the universal pollution removal agent she had refined to the front-line hospital. She believed that clinical data would be fed back soon, and she was looking forward to it.
"Nine-tailed Fox greets the master." As Ning Xuan just walked to the restaurant, she saw Nine-tailed Fox kneeling at the door of the restaurant.
"Get up. Why are you here? Do you have something to say?" Ning Xuan walked past Jiuwei without stopping. She went straight into the restaurant, found her seat and sat down. Yu Mingche, who followed her, also sat down beside her. Di Youlin sat on the other side with his head lowered.
Di Youlin came back on the sixth day after Ning Xuan returned to the Central Star, saying that he wanted to come back for vacation.
Kyuubi gestured to the servant standing outside the door, and the servant immediately went to the kitchen to serve the dishes.
Jiuwei followed Ning Xuan into the restaurant. After Ning Xuan sat down, Jiuwei stood aside and placed dishes and chopsticks for Ning Xuan and Yu Mingche. "Master, President Lan of the Orc Association came into the villa under the pretext of visiting me. I asked him to leave, but he refused. He said he wanted to visit you. I was afraid that he might make a noise and disturb you, so I wanted to come and tell you." Jiuwei explained the matter quickly.
"Hmph, they think Lan Xin has done a great job and that makes them proud." Before Ning Xuan could say anything, Yu Mingche became dissatisfied.
When Jiuwei heard Yu Mingche's unhappy tone, he knelt down silently and waited for orders. Although he had never served his master in bed, he and Lan Xin enjoyed the same treatment in the mansion. He was considered as the master's close associate and was directly managed by Lord Yu.
Ning Xuan patted Yu Mingche's hand, signaling him not to be angry.
Then she said, "Since he's here, tell him to come to the reception room after dinner to meet you." Ning Xuan was gentle to Jiuwei. After all, President Lan was from the Orc Association, so she just regarded it as giving face to Jiuwei and Lan Xin.
With Ning Xuan's guidance, coupled with his talent and interest, Jiuwei is now a master in cooking and is very knowledgeable about all kinds of dishes that Ning Xuan has ever described.
Ning Xuan looked at the various dishes that were placed on the table one after another. Each dish was delicious and very tempting.
Ning Xuan was very happy when she saw the snacks in the shapes of little foxes, little tigers and other animals. She thought to herself that it was better to be at home.
After the meal, Ning Xuan and Yu Mingche took a walk in the small garden outside. The afterglow of the setting sun cast a layer of gold on the garden. When Ning Xuan was about to go to the reception room, a servant came to report that Master Lan Xin had returned.
The sound of uniform footsteps was heard not far away.
Ning Xuan looked up and saw a team of guards in silver-grey uniforms walking towards them along the gravel path. The metal soles of their boots made crisp sounds when they hit the ground.
The leading man was half a head taller than the others, and even from more than ten steps away, one could feel the murderous aura coming towards him. He was wearing a specially made golden light armor with fine patterns engraved on it, which shone like water waves in the sunset.
Lan Xin's appearance is very recognizable, with a pair of deep blue eyes, a graceful jawline and sharp edges. At this time, there is a scar on his brow bone that has not yet healed completely. However, the scar does not detract from his handsomeness at all, but instead adds a bit of sharpness tempered on the battlefield.
The team stopped in unison five meters away from Ning Xuan. Lan Xin raised her hand and gestured, and all the followers stopped immediately. Lan Xin took a few quick steps, clenched her right fist, placed it in front of her chest, and knelt on one knee in front of Ning Xuan, "Your servant Lan Xin greets the master, and greets Lord Yu."
"Why did you come back? Is the fighting over on the battlefield over? Are your wounds healed?" Ning Xuan asked.
"My master, I am completely recovered after your treatment. I haven't had a vacation for a year. I have made a contribution this time, so Master Ying has approved a one-month vacation for me." Lan Xin raised her head and looked at Ning Xuan with bright eyes.
"Oh, I'm back for vacation. You've been on a long journey. Go back to your yard and rest first." Ning Xuan waved her hand.
"Xuanxuan, Lan Xin came to pay homage to the master and dared to wear armor and smell of blood. This is disrespectful to you." Yu Mingche looked at Lan Xin with unfriendly eyes.
Ning Xuan looked at Lan Xin, then looked at Yu Mingche and was about to say something, Yu Mingche bowed to Ning Xuan and said, "Master, I will teach him the rules."
Ning Xuan looked at Lan Xin with some embarrassment and nodded. Yu Mingche's current situation was special. For the past ten days, Ning Xuan had been very obedient to him, fearing that she had made him unhappy in any way.
"Linran, take off his armor, drag him to the yard, and beat him with thirty boards." Seeing Ning Xuan leave, Yu Mingche directly ordered Feng Linran.
Lan Xin allowed his servants to strip off all his armor. When his followers saw this, they looked at each other in confusion. It was the captain of the team who stepped forward and quietly asked Lan Xin whether they should stop it.
Lan Xin shook his head and told them not to act rashly. He knew that Yu Mingche was afraid that he would forget his roots, so he deliberately found an excuse to beat him up and kill his prestige.
Lan Xin had no dissatisfaction at all with this treatment. No matter how great his achievements were or how high his position was, it could not change the fact that he was Ning Xuan's slave.
So, when Jiuwei brought President Lan to the reception room to meet Ning Xuan, he saw a tall man in a white undershirt being pressed on a stool and beaten with a board. His white clothes were covered with red bloodstains. The dull sound of the board hitting the flesh and the occasional moans made people unable to help but look sideways.
"Who is that? Do you know what mistake he made? Are you beaten often too?" President Lan asked Kyuubi curiously.
Jiuwei just took a glance and recognized who was beaten. Lan Xin didn't know what mistake she had made, and she was punished by Lord Yu as soon as she came back.
"It's Lan Xin, President, don't you recognize him?" Jiuwei asked curiously.
"Who are you talking about?" President Lan's voice suddenly rose, and then he ran over there.
When President Lan was mentioned by Jiuwei, he recognized him immediately. This was indeed Lan Xin. Although he seemed to have grown a lot taller and his temperament was different from before, he was indeed Lan Xin.
"Stop, stop it. General Lan is a decorated general. How dare you hit him?" President Lan rushed over to grab the torture instruments.
Lan Xin had almost finished taking the thirty boards when he was suddenly interrupted. He was very angry and looked aside, signaling his men to take the troublemaker away and not to disturb him.
At this time, Jiuwei also reacted and hurried to pull President Lan.
