Chapter 47
The war situation in the outer ring of the capital planet has been eased with the arrival of support from all sides. Some Zerg have been killed by the sentinels and guides. As time goes by, the situation will only get better for humans.
The burden on them was lightened, and the members of Dark Blade no longer had to race against time to control the situation. More people were involved in the post-disaster rescue work in the city.
Yan Xuanjin found an empty house, kicked open the not-so-strong door, and quickly pulled Lingyun inside.
Ling Yun staggered due to his sudden force. Before she could see his face clearly, she was pushed against the wall by a force.
They didn't speak, just looked at each other.
Yan Xuanjin's breathing was extremely rapid and deep. The hot air exhaled from his nose hit Ling Yun's face, unknowingly making her fair skin turn a little red.
His hands pressed tightly against the wall, the bony joints of his broad hands bulging and veins visible.
The mental force violently surrounded the guide who was trapped in the gap between the wall and the door, forcing every breath he took to be tainted with his own scent.
"What's wrong with you?" Ling Yun still couldn't figure out the current situation. His blue eyes stared at Yan Xuanjin innocently and purely.
Being stared at by such a pair of eyes, Yan Xuanjin felt even more annoyed.
My emotions, which were already difficult to control, grew rapidly the moment I sensed the threat, almost overwhelming my reason.
"Who am I?"
Unclear questioning.
Ling Yun was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Yan Xuanjin lowered his eyes, blinked his yellow-green eyes, and then avoided the sight as if escaping.
He waited for a long time, so long that Yan Xuanjin's patience was almost gone, so long that he wanted to end it all and slam the door and leave, before he finally got Ling Yun's answer.
“…He’s my benefactor.”
Yan Xuanjin's chest heaved violently for a moment, but before he could exhale, he heard Ling Yun's unfinished words again.
"Yes...Captain."
This time he learned his lesson and did not react in a hurry. Instead, he looked at Ling Yun racking his brains with a silent expression.
"Yes, Master."
"Yes, brother..."
"What else?" Yan Xuanjin was almost driven crazy by Ling Yun's word-for-word manner of speaking. He was anxious for a result. "What else?!"
Ling Yun felt inexplicably aggrieved, but when he saw Yan Xuanjin's red eyes and felt the vibration of his fist hitting the wall, he felt a little scared.
He didn't dare to say anything more, for he was afraid that the answer he would give would not be what he wanted.
"Speak." Yan Xuanjin stretched out his other hand, held Ling Yun's chin, and closed his mouth to speak.
"No, no more..." Ling Yun shook his head slightly, swallowed nervously, and closed his eyes reflexively the moment he saw Yan Xuanjin approaching suddenly.
Lingyun was shaking.
He was afraid of him.
It seemed as if there were countless broken pieces of glass hidden in my heart, and every beat was accompanied by a fine pain that kept piling up.
Yan Xuanjin suddenly felt at a loss.
He withdrew his hand, withdrew the mental power that was madly clamoring with dissatisfaction, and took several steps back.
Ling Yun opened her eyes cautiously, but could not see or understand the expression on Yan Xuanjin's face.
I just feel like...something seems to have changed.
"...Go back. You don't need to be responsible for the subsequent finishing work." Yan Xuanjin's voice was hoarse, but unquestionable.
Lingyun stood where he was and didn't want to move - his intuition told him that if he left, there might be some things that he could never get back.
"..." Yan Xuanjin noticed Ling Yun's actions, but did not leave him any room to persuade him, "Snow Cat, go back."
This is a colonel giving orders to a soldier who doesn't even have a military rank.
Military orders must not be disobeyed.
In the end, Ling Yun had no choice but to return to the starship.
