After that, everything came to an end.
After leaving Dukao's office, Wang Ji stood by the railing gazing at the sea for a long, long time.
No one ever heard anyone whispering about him and Tianhe City again. Anyone with a bit of foresight would understand how significant this matter was. After all, no one could expect a soft-hearted god to suddenly limit nuclear power for Earth... It's like a joke.
He Xi said he did the right thing, and he himself never doubted himself.
In his view, there was hardly any other way or path to accomplish this. Forgive his arrogance, but if he had discussed it with Ducati or higher-ups beforehand, it might not have happened, and it was almost impossible.
If secrets are not kept, harm will result.
In addition, there is the understanding of God, the understanding of the relationships between various gods, the expectation of the outcome, the power that one's side can mobilize, the possible changes, whether the power behind the king can be trusted, and so on.
No one would believe that Wang Ji could be completely foolproof, and Wang Ji would never explain to them how he knew all this.
Of course, for a soldier to do these things was an overstepping of his authority. He overstepped his authority and accepted the corresponding punishment, both psychological and from the gaze and opinions of others.
As for the outcome, there was neither reward nor punishment, and the news was kept secret from the moment he left Ducao's office.
In fact, Wang Ji was wondering if there really were such noble and kind people in this world who didn't have the slightest bit of kindness or favoritism towards their daughter's boyfriend?
Or is it that if there truly are extremely great and lofty ideals in this world, then their precise completion must be guaranteed, without any deviation? Even if it means paying an unnecessary price, like sharpening a sword?
What exactly is meant by... a sword that cuts through fear?
“Anti-Void,” a golden flame slowly appeared in Wang Ji’s hand. He looked at it quietly and murmured softly, “Void, space… the endless source.”
With a gentle clench of the fist, the flames vanished.
Suddenly, his eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he looked to the side and behind him not far away, smiling knowingly.
Lena, the chubby girl, was sneaking closer to him.
"Ugh... It's really hard to sneak up on you." Lena raised her hands furtively, and seeing this, she didn't stop, but jumped straight onto Wang Ji's back.
Her little face nuzzled against his neck, her soft tongue gently licking it as she whispered, "Did those two girls serve you well last night?"
Her voice was sweet and cloying, accompanied by a mischievous chuckle.
“No, not at all,” Wang Ji wrapped his arms around a pair of firm, smooth thighs, and turned his back to her, smiling. “I was thinking about you so much last night that I had nightmares.”
"Tch...scumbag quotes." Lena scoffed, patted her big chest, then stepped down to stand next to him, snorting, "I heard someone was almost scared out of his wits yesterday. I wonder if he's still as dashing as ever today? Can he hold out until he marries this goddess?"
As she spoke, she looked Wang Ji up and down with a malicious expression.
"You'll understand sooner or later," Wang Ji smiled.
"Hey... I mean, haven't you found one or two you like lately? Any secret flings?" Lena said, suddenly raising an eyebrow.
"No." Wang Ji glanced at her, not knowing why she brought up this topic, but then chuckled lightly: "I'm planning to pull off a big move. Actually, I still feel that Earth is not suitable. Once we leave Earth, I can have three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines, and do whatever I want."
Don't worry, there will be times when you can't recognize all the names.
"Hmph..." Reina scoffed, "Then I'll wait and see what kind of iron waist you really have..."
He smiled but didn't say anything.
"Um, well..." Lena suddenly spoke up again, though she seemed a little hesitant, "Do you think there haven't been any major events on Earth lately?"
"What?" Wang Ji asked, somewhat puzzled.
“It’s just…” she raised her hand: “Go to Lieyang.”
She tilted her head slightly, looking unusually shy, a stark contrast to her usual confident demeanor.
Wang Ji was stunned for a moment, then nodded and muttered to himself, "Yes..."
It seems that nothing much has happened lately.
Just as he had promised Dukao, he would listen to Dukao in everything from now on and just wait for orders.
So it's really not his business on Earth anymore. The Taotie army is still a long way off, at least another seven or eight months.
As for the others, if Ducao doesn't see a problem, then it's as if there isn't one.
So everything's alright then?
"What did General Pan Zhen say?" He suddenly remembered something and looked at Lena.
“What could he say?” Lena subconsciously raised her chin, then added, “I told him, and he said that as long as you and I are ready, he will be ready immediately, so we won’t be caught off guard.”
Wang Ji nodded.
"Are you... going?" Lena asked cautiously.
Wang Ji glanced at her, then looked around, thought for a moment, and nodded gently: "Go."
Lena's eyes suddenly lit up with a dazzling light! She was overjoyed!
"Should I bring betrothal gifts?" he chuckled. "I'm just a poor guy... I'm under a bit of pressure to marry a goddess like you."
"Just give me your two concubines!" Lena was so happy she couldn't stop smiling, and quickly waved her hand: "Who can afford the dowry for marrying a goddess? I'll be doing you a favor by not giving you a dowry."
“Lena,” Wang Ji was also happy to see her so joyful, and suddenly asked, “Do you remember what I told you before?”
"Huh?" Lena paused for a moment, then shook her head blankly. "What?"
