Chapter 368 - What Are You Doing, Chief?
Lili's residence.
The courtyard had been reduced to ruins.
Lili stood in the center of the courtyard and looked ahead, killing intent boiling within.
"Such terrible strength. As expected of my Deputy Chief. "
A young man with a robust body and unkempt hair, who wore a black cape and black clothing, stood on the opposite side.
His name was Austin, the chief of the Royal Knights.
"Not yours." Lili corrected.
"Hahaha. Fine, fine. Not mine. Lili, you should stay home and rest for these few days. Don't go out."
Austin laughed, his handsome face was a soothing sight to see.
"Me going outdoors or not is none of your concern, no?" Lili raised her head and said grimly.
"You are my subordinate. How can it not be my concern? Listen to me, go back and rest."
"What if I don't listen?"
"Oh, then don't blame me for what happens next." While speaking, Austin removed his cape and tossed it away. Then slowly removed his shirt.
"Chief, what are you doing?" Watching as he removed his top and revealed his muscular torso, Lili instantly frowned.
*Clack!*
Tossing away his heavy shirt, Austin inched forward with his left foot, spread out all the fingers on his right hand in front of his face, and twisted his waist—forming a wondrous pose.
"Since you're not being obedient, then don't blame me for forsaking the friendship we've built in the past! I'll do everything I can to put you down!"
The moment he finished speaking. Austin's violent aura burst forth. Then, all the muscles on his body swelled and started glowing red. His wide opened eyes instantly became bloodshot.
*Bang!*
The next moment, the air itself shook.
Everyone on the scene felt an invisible pressure clamping on them.
"The chief is about to use his full force!"
"My goodness, I can't believe I'm seeing the chief and vice chief fighting! I'm so excited!"
"That's right. Tonight, we'll finally figure out if the chief or the vice chief is stronger!"
"Everybody step back. You want to die?" The warrior who had spoken to Lili just now screamed.
The surrounding soldiers instantly reacted and backed off quickly. When powerhouses like them were in combat, these people wouldn't even survive the shockwaves from such a battle.
"Put me down? Hehehe, that's funny." Lili sneered as cold killing intent flashed in her eyes.
Immediately after, a horrifying aura that was visible surged, it actually created ripples of shockwaves in the air. Deep fissures started appearing on the ground. At this moment, everyone was shocked. They knew Lili was strong, but they didn't expect her to be that strong.
Austin was shocked too. He had lost in terms of fighting spirit before this battle had even begun.
'I can only suppress her using my combat experience!'
He squinted his eyes, clenched his fists, and invested strength into his left foot. He was prepared to leap out and attack preemptively!
"I will make you all regret coming here..." Lili tightly gripped her battleaxes as her aura soared to its peak. When she was about to attack, a slight vibration came from her chest.
There was a special-made communication bead hanging around her neck, dedicated to her and Alicia only. It boasted a long communication distance, but it could only transmit information using simple vibrations.
Now, that communication bead vibrated 4 times. 3 long and 1 short.
"I'm done fighting. I'm sleeping." Lili retracted her aura and turned around while saying that.
Hearing that, everyone almost toppled onto the ground.
'I even took off my pants but you called it quits!'
Austin was dumbfounded. He had already planned for the worst and was about to use everything in his arsenal to cause mutual destruction.
However, in the end, she just decided not to fight. He had wasted a lot of effort for nothing.
After complaining in his heart for a bit, Austin heaved a heavy sigh.
If he had lost this battle somehow, his name would forever be tarnished in the Knight Order.
In addition, the Emperor would be very displeased by that outcome.
It didn't matter if she was going back to sleep, Lili deciding to submit of her own free will was the best outcome possible for him.
"Leave some manpower behind to keep watch on her. Inform me right away if anything happens."
Austin ordered as he picked up his cape and wore it in a smooth motion.

In Hasa Hotel.
Alicia was laying in bed, looking much worse than before.
Yaeger sat beside the bed and placed a quilt on her.
"Lili should be fine, right?" Yaeger asked.
Since Richard already knew that Alicia opened the underground maze, he'd surely treat her as an enemy by now. On the surface, Lili had no association with Alicia.
However, Richard clearly understood that Lili was Alicia's disciple since he knew everything about her.
With that, he would most likely take action against Lili.
That was what Yaeger assumed.
"No problem, don't worry. Although Richard is stronger than Lili, he won't take action against her."
The price was too high. Alicia added.
"I see. Then I won't be worried." Yaeger nodded slowly as worry dissipated in her heart.
"There are two reasons why Richard avoided dealing with me. Firstly, I won't live long enough. Secondly, Lili's an obstacle to him." Alicia said.
"I see. He might win, but he'll have to pay a heavy price. I would do the same thing if I were him."
Moreover, Alicia would die if he waited for some time anyway.
"That's right. So, nothing will happen to Lili. On the contrary, we'll have to be cautious here."
Alicia's voice became more and more quiet as her face became pale.
"Yes. I'll be careful. You should rest early." Yaeger knew not to continue pestering her after seeing her expression. She then stood up. "I'll leave and make some preparations."
"Yes, see you tomorrow." After saying that, Alicia slowly closed her eyes as she succumbed to her fatigue.
Yaeger didn't stay behind. She turned around and left.
The hotel's exterior was deserted. Not a single soul could be seen.
Meanwhile, the commercial district was completely crowded.
"These people are very well-informed." Looking at the sea of green names, Yaeger couldn't help but smile bitterly.
There were now a good number of players on Linhnan server. Once mobilized, they could form an ocean of people.
They went online right now in order to confirm if the news was true or false.
On the other hand, if the news was verified to be true, then they would make preparations immediately. They would grind levels and forge more Equipment.
Opportunities were always reserved for those who were prepared.
Otherwise, they would fail to attain anything even if there were treasures laid right in front of them.
"Despite having our plans disrupted, it looks like we'll earn more money." Yaeger sighed.
These people were akin to cattle in ranches. Their purpose was to provide her with leather, meat, and milk.
Every penny that they spent was another penny that entered her wallet.
For every single day they remained in Jade City, Yaeger would feast on them like a bloodsucker.
"It's so addictive to farm people." With a chuckle, she returned to the Item Shop while walking happily.
After saving Yunuen from the hell that was alchemy, Yaeger and Layna chit chatted for a while before going offline in the guestroom.
In Jade Flower Garden.
Inside the pitch black room, Yaeger slowly opened her eyes.
At this moment, beeping was heard from her Huawhey phone.
Picking up the phone, she saw a message from her sister.
"Sister, let's watch the live stream together! There are 36Ds and long legs!"
