452: Chapter 452 Unbridled

Unexpectedly, the foreign forces stationed where Chu Xiaohe and Murong Yue were guarding suddenly launched a surprise attack.

Just this morning, a special exercise unit from India crossed the border line and launched a surprise attack on one of the Dragon Kingdom's surveillance outposts located in the border mountains.

The result, naturally, goes without saying.

Many civil servants were only Rank 5 or 6, so they were naturally suppressed with ease.

Presumably, many people knew that Chu Xiaohe and Murong Yue's daughter was Chu Feiyu, so in this situation, what they needed to wait for to be saved was not reinforcements, but support from Chen Yi and Chu Feiyu.

That was how this phone call came about.

Everyone was shocked; they hadn't expected ZERO to be playing dirty tricks again.

The atmosphere in the room instantly grew heavy.

All The girls gathered around, looking at the photo on Chu Feiyu's phone, their faces filled with anger and worry.

"This is a naked provocation!"

"The border area must be riddled with traps right now."

"But even if we know it's a trap, we have to go."

"This is an open conspiracy! Are they planning to start with our families?"

This thought sent a chill down everyone's spine.

They hadn't expected ZERO to play such a devious Move.

Chu Feiyu immediately found Chen Yi, choking up as she said, "Chen Yi, my parents, they—"

She couldn't continue.

Although she was already a Rank 12 powerhouse and had experienced countless battles.

But in the face of her parents' safety, she was still that girl who could be afraid and helpless.

However, before she could finish, Chen Yi interrupted, "Don't worry! Leave it to me!"

"Your parents are my parents-in-law too; saving them is my responsibility!"

"Sometimes, if I don't teach them a lesson, they think they can act with impunity!"

He immediately took a cyan fruit from the System space—the Wind God Fruit.

"System, I want to activate the teleportation effect of the Wind God Fruit!"

[Ding! Consumed 5 Enhancement Points, activation successful!]

As the System's voice faded.

The Wind God Fruit instantly erupted with a brilliant emerald radiance.

The girls also understood what Chen Yi wanted to do.

Except for Emilia, who voluntarily stayed behind to prevent the enemy from luring the tiger away from the mountain—she was a Tier 14 powerhouse—the rest of The girls grabbed Chen Yi's hands.

The next second, space fluctuated.

Everyone disappeared from the Cultivation room.

Their strength had increased so much, and they were just worrying about having nowhere to vent—this was the shared thought of all The girls at that moment.

Fifteen days of crazy Cultivation had caused their strength to skyrocket, but they hadn't had a chance for real combat.

Now that someone had jumped into the line of fire, they had to make them pay the price no matter what.

A cold glint flashed in Chen Yi's eyes.

He was not a bloodthirsty person, but he never went soft on enemies.

Especially such despicable tactics involving his family; it violated his bottom line.

At this time, in the southern border of the Dragon Kingdom, the boundary area of the former Five Elements Secret Realm.

This was a continuous mountain range with steep terrain and dense vegetation.

The former Five Elements Secret Realm was right here!

But now, it had become the front line for the standoff between the two countries!

The Dragon Kingdom had established seven surveillance outposts in this mountain area, distributed in a fan shape, monitoring the movements on the other side of the border line.

Outpost No. 7 was the most forward one among them, built on a mountain peak over 3,000 meters above sea level.

From here, one could overlook the entire border valley, and the view was excellent.

But now, this outpost had turned into a ruin.

"Unreasonable! Simply unreasonable!"

Inside a temporary command post five kilometers away from Outpost No. 7, a Dragon Kingdom officer angrily slammed the table.

"These sons of bitches actually launched a surprise attack on our outpost!"

"Eighteen people died, thirty-four were seriously injured... This is simply a huge humiliation!"

"Captain, the other side just sent a diplomatic note, claiming it was a misunderstanding, an accidental exchange of fire during an exercise—"

"A misunderstanding? Do you know how many people died on our side? And they call it a misunderstanding! Simply unreasonable!"

"Don't be impulsive! In the current situation, any small Move affects the whole, so we absolutely cannot act rashly! The other side is clearly provoking us, wanting to lure us into attacking first so they have an excuse to launch a full-scale offensive!"

Inside the integrated command post, a group of Dragon Kingdom officers were cursing, but felt helpless.

The captain gritted his teeth, his fists clenching until they cracked.

He knew everyone was right.

Now the Dragon Kingdom was isolated and helpless, facing the global coalition forces under ZERO; any small conflict could become the fuse for a full-scale war.

Frustrating, it was too frustrating.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the border line.

In a military camp twenty kilometers inside India.

Two Indian Rank 8 Beast Tamers were sparring, making wanton jokes.

In reality, this was not sparring at all!

It was a deliberate all-out attack on their No. 7 outpost in the mountains!

After casualties occurred, they just laughed it off, claimed it was a misunderstanding, and walked away.

This was India's tactic today—using exercise accidents as a pretext to carry out sneak attacks.

Even if the Dragon Kingdom protested, they could push the blame, saying it was accidental injury, an "uncontrollable accident!"

They simply didn't treat the Dragon Kingdom people as human!

However, what could be done about it?

Nowadays, the whole world belonged to the forces of ZERO, and a large-scale war could break out at any time.

If they pursued them out now, the other side might even bite back, claiming they were the ones who attacked first.

At that time, they would have a reason for counterattacking in self-defense.

Regardless of numbers or strength, the opponent was stronger than the current Dragon Kingdom, so they could only endure it.

Everyone looked at the two sparring Indian Beast Tamers on the surveillance screen, their teeth almost grinding to pieces.

How fucking frustrating!

At this time, inside the Indian camp.

Several Advanced officers sat in the command tent, watching the real-time sparring footage, laughing wantonly.

"Hahaha, look at those Dragon Kingdom people, they dare not even fart!"

"They are just tortoises now, only able to hide in their shells."

"Lord ZERO said that as long as we don't cross the border line, it doesn't matter how we provoke them."

"But... what if they really can't help but counterattack?"

"Counterattack? Do they dare? Now the whole world is under Lord ZERO's control, the Dragon Kingdom is isolated and helpless; if they dare to counterattack, we will have an excuse to launch an offensive, and that would be courting their own destruction!"

"Exactly, exactly! What is there to be afraid of!"

However, some were also afraid; what if they angered Chen Yi, how would they play then?

A staff officer wearing glasses pushed up his glasses and whispered, "But... Chen Yi's strength is very strong! Previously, General Miyamoto Tenzo brought a Demonic Beast army to besiege the Luo family, but it was all resolved by him alone—"

The laughter in the tent stopped abruptly.

Mentioning Chen Yi, everyone's expressions became somewhat unnatural.

After all, this guy was an existence that even ZERO was a bit wary of.

Could these small fries really handle Chen Yi?

But only ten seconds later, a burst of unbridled mocking laughter came from the camp.
