Chapter 700 - The Return of Little Four!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Ling Xiao walked to the virtual girl.

“Everything is normal. Please show your identification chip,” the virtual girl smiled as she spoke.

Ling Xiao aimed his communicator at the girl and heard a beep. The virtual girl covered her mouth in surprise, then said excitedly, “Dad... daddy.”

Huh? Why did she call him ‘daddy’? Ling Lan instantly felt dark clouds passing over her head. She felt that her father was going to be stolen from her.

Ling Xiao also had a similar expression. Although he really wanted to see Ling Lan wear a skirt and call him ‘daddy’ in a cutesy way, he definitely wasn’t desperate enough to want this virtual girl to call him ‘daddy’.

The virtual girl seemed to have calmed down. She blushed, bowed and apologized, “Sorry General Ling Xiao, please accept my apology. I was too excited just now.” She stood upright and continued, “My creator is a loyal follower of you, General Ling Xiao. My creator had made me recognize General Ling Xiao as my father. Because of some of my creator’s residual emotions within me, I have disrespected General Ling Xiao just now.”

The virtual girl’s explanation made Ling Xiao frown even more. To be able to create such a life-like intelligent entity would of course be an old researcher who had studied intelligent entities for decades. It’s unsettling to let a hundred year-old man call him ‘daddy’. That would be a lot of pressure on him.

Right as Ling Xiao wanted to indicate that he didn’t have any thoughts of being anyone else’s ‘daddy’ except Ling Lan’s, Ling Lan had a spark in her mind. She suddenly thought of something and immediately pulled Ling Xiao back, “Dad, I’ll explain this to you in the future.”

Ling Xiao stared blankly at her for a moment then suddenly understood something, “Lan’er, you know who’s the creator of this intelligent entity don’t you?”

“If my guess is right, then it’s him.” Ling Lan looked at the virtual girl and her eyes flickered. Could it be that punk thought she was being too mean to him, so he created this thing to remind her about him?

“It’s fine then if you know what’s wrong.” Believing in his daughter would explain it to him in the future, Ling Xiao nodded and let this matter rest for now. Ling Xiao believed his daughter would be able to resolve this and would definitely not let him have a child that came out of nowhere.

Ling Xiao didn’t know that his daughter had already sold him out completely. Without him knowing, his daughter already got him a son. In the near future, this situation would almost split the family apart. Of course this was all in the future and will not be explained here.

Ling Xiao walked into the small door while the virtual girl still had an excited expression on her face, leaving Ling Lan by herself. Ling Lan didn’t hesitate and walked up. The virtual girl didn’t ask Ling Lan to show her identity chip like the others. Instead, she respectfully shouted, “Master, I’m happy to see you.”

These words had basically confirmed Ling Lan’s suspicions. Ling Lan coldly asked, “Is your creator Little Four?”

“Yes master,” replied the virtual girl as she nodded.

“Did Little Four leave anything he wanted to say?” Ling Lan continued her questioning. She missed Little Four very much. When will Little Four be able to wake up?

The virtual girl thought hard for a moment then replied, “I’m not sure if those words were what my creator wanted to say, but when he was creating me he always mumbled them...”

Ling Lan felt something was off, but she calmed herself down and let the virtual girl to repeat what Little Four mumbled. She wanted to know what Little Four was thinking or what Little Four needed.

The virtual girl’s eyes suddenly turned black. The voice that she was using was not the voice she was using just now, but rather Little Four’s voice. These words were unconsciously spoken by Little Four while he was creating the intelligent entity.

“Boss, you should have a warm demeanor, don’t be so cold...”

“Boss, you should speak gently, don’t be so cold...”

“Boss, you should smile more, don’t be so cold...”

“Boss, caring about your younger brothers goes a long way. You should definitely not resort to domestic violence...”

“Boss...”

“Little Four, you’re dead!” Ling Lan finally understood that this girl in front of her was Little Four’s image of her in his mind. Did that punk Little Four still dislike her current image?

Ling Lan’s fingers trembled. Hearing all this, the virtual girl’s eyes twitched. She looked at her angry master, then thought about her naughty creator. She decisively sided her master, not with her creator.

As an intelligent entity, it must control the situation. She clearly understood that if one wants to survive one must hug the thighs of the strongest person. It was clear that her master was the strongest person and could protect her. Knowing who was the strongest, XXQ1 decisively tossed her creator aside and completely sold out her creator.

Little Four, who was sleeping in the learning space, suddenly felt his body shiver. He was actually woken up by the cold.

He rubbed his eyes and finally opened his two eyes that had been shut for a long time. As he opened his eyes, a chubby face appeared in front of him, covering his entire world.

“Little Blossom?” Little Four was surprised. He pushed Little Blossom’s chubby bun-like face aside with disgust. Man, why wasn’t it the Boss waiting by his side? It seemed however, that he had heard the Boss’s voice, as if calling out to him.

“Elder Brother Little Four, you’re finally awake.” Although Little Blossom almost fell over after being pushed by Little Four, he was still very happy to see his Elder Brother Little Four awake. Thus, he decided to forgive Elder Brother Little Four’s barbaric behavior.

“Finally awake? Didn’t I just sleep for a little while? You are making a fuss out of nothing.” Little Four rolled his eyes towards Little Blossom, dissatisfied about Little Blossom’s lack of tact.

“Elder Brother Little Four, you’ve slept for a very long time. It would be nice if I can sleep for that long,” Little Blossom said with envy. Those bad people in the learning space forced him outside to be beside master because Little Four was in a deep sleep. Although being with master was very fun, Little Blossom still liked to sleep when he has nothing else to do...

“Very long?” Little Four was stunned. He suddenly counted his fingers and in the next second he shouted with his face in his hands, “I actually slept for more than half a year?”

“Yeah, more than half a year.” Little Blossom nodded in agreement. Did Elder Brother Little Four just realize this just now?

“Wah wah wah, this isn’t good. I’m gonna fall out of favor with Boss!” Little Four pulled on Little Blossom’s collar and shook him violently, “Tell me, who was beside Boss while I was sleeping?” Little Four would definitely get rid of that person if he knew which bastard took his throne as the first underling.

Little Blossom was shaken until his eyes were spinning and could not answer Little Four’s question.

Little Four noticed Little Blossom wasn’t answering and looked at him. He saw Little Blossom being dizzy from his continuous shaking. He immediately stopped and patted Little Blossom’s chubby face, hoping that he would return to normal.

Right as Little Blossom stopped being dizzy, Little Four gritted his teeth and asked again, “Little Blossom, tell me, who has been beside Boss while I was sleeping?”

Little Blossom didn’t recover from the dizziness completely. After hearing the question, he unconsciously pointed at himself and replied with a dumb look on his face, “It was me!”

“You?” Little Four was stunned.

“Yes. Elder Brother Little Four wasn’t here so I stayed beside master while you were sleeping...” Little Blossom told Little Four about this with a dumb look on his face.

“Argh, Little Blossom, I’m going to kill you.” Little Four instantly exploded. He grabbed Little Blossom’s collar once again and began violently shaking Little Blossom.

It turns out, the person who took his spot was actually his subordinate. As expected, it was hard to prevent thieves from his own home. Little Four was inexplicable angry...

After being shaken by Little Four again, Little Blossom finally realized the danger he was in. Although he loved to sleep, he didn’t like fainting caused by an outside source. In order to save himself, his slow and dumb little brain finally clicked, “Master... master is going to be taken away by someone else...”

“What?” Little Four instantly stopped shaking Little Blossom. His eyes looked at him sharply.

Little Blossom saw that his world was no longer shaking and instantly breathed a sigh of relief. He pointed towards the outside world and said, “That intelligent entity is stealing master away.”

“Pfft, since I, Little Four, has arrived, I would definitely not let other intelligent entities touch my Boss.” Little Four tossed Little Blossom aside and in the next second, bolted out of the learning space.

Little Blossom finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing he managed to deceive Elder Brother Little Four to make him leave. However, he knew that when Elder Brother Little Four realizes what he had done, he would definitely be beaten to a pulp by Elder Brother Little Four. He thought about it for a moment, then in the next second, he appeared at the center of the learning space.

“What are you doing here?” Seeing an uninvited guest appearing in his dimension, Instructor Number Five couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. Although he was a little kid, he was still the first person to visit his dimension after Younger Sister Number Nine visited him.

“Let me hide here for a while.” Little Blossom bit on his fingers as he spoke. Although he was afraid of Instructor Number Five, Number Five was the only one he could go to for help. Of course, he could also have gone to Number One for help, but Little Blossom wasn’t sure whether or not he would be instantly shaken until he faints if he had gone into Instructor Number One’s dimension. Little Blossom hated that feeling. Comparing the two, Little Blossom chose to come to Instructor Number Five’s dimension instead.

Number Five glanced at Little Blossom with interest. Wasn’t this little kid afraid of him.

Number Five’s glance made Little Blossom’s body shiver, but he still managed to calm himself down. Compared to Elder Brother Little Four’s domestic violence, he felt that Instructor Number Five’s threats were less scary. As expected, the Doomsday Flower had a different understanding of the word ‘threats’ compared to normal people. He actually believed the perverse Number Five’s threat levels were lower than Little Four’s threat levels...

“Who are you hiding from?” Seeing Little Blossom not shying away from his gaze, Number Five suddenly became interested and asked him.

“Elder Brother Little Four,” Little Blossom replied honestly.

“Majesty Four? Why are you hiding from him?” Number Five smirked, his eyes filled with colors of the rainbow as if he was plotting something.

“Elder Brother Little Four wants to beat me. Beating is very scary.” Little Blossom was an honest child and told Number Five all the details of why he was hiding from Little Four.

Number Five’s smirk became a grin, “You can definitely hide here, but Little Blossom, you should understand that in this world you can’t enjoy something for free. If you want to hide here then you have to pay a price.”

“What price?” Little Blossom asked confusedly as he bit on his chubby fingers.

“Be my guinea pig for experiments.” Number Five finally spoke out what he wanted.

“Guinea pig for experiments?” Little Blossom didn’t understand what those three words meant.

“Yes, I developed a new training method. Back then, Ling Lan had helped experiment with it. Now that Ling Lan’s busy, she doesn’t have time to help me. Little Blossom, are you willing to help me?” Number Five’s expression seemed saddened as he looked at Little Blossom with a pitiful look on his face.

Little Blossom didn’t think much about Instructor Number Five’s expression. Once he heard that his master was a guinea pig once, blood instantly rushed to his head, blocking out any rational thought. Does this mean that he would be helping his master? Now that his master didn’t have time for it but Little Blossom has some time, then Little Blossom would substitute be a guinea pig.

It had to be said that Little Four’s brainwashing was very successful. In Little Blossom’s mind, Ling Lan was held at the highest regard. When he believed that being a guinea pig for experiments was something Ling Lan needed to do, Little Blossom would help his master do it no matter what the cost.

“If it can help master, then let me do this experiment. In the future, if Instructor Number Five requires a guinea pig, no need to look for my master. Just come find Little Blossom.” Little Blossom’s eyes brightened as he looked at Number Five. His eyes were filled with wholeheartedness and joy knowing he will be helping his master.

Number Five was defeated by Little Blossom’s expression. He put his hand over his face and changed his expression instantly. He then spoke in a forceful manner, “In that case, then come in here with me.” Afterwards, he kicked Little Blossom’s chubby buttocks and kicked him into a random dimension. This was to make him try out the perverse training that would completely make people go insane.

Seeing his dimension returning to the previous silence, Number Five couldn’t help but let out a soft sigh, “I’m not sure whether I did the right thing or not...”

“That’s surprising, the usual cold-blooded and ruthless Number Five actually has times of hesitation. I would never have thought that could happen.” Number Four’s flirtatious face appeared in front of Number Five. Number Five laughed coldly and pointed his finger towards her.

In the next second, Number Four moved far away and said softly, “You don’t even care for a woman’s beauty. Wasting such a good shell.”

Number Five huffed coldly and said, “Number Four, I can’t withstand your love. If I dared to care for the beauty of a woman like you, I would probably lose half of my life-span in the next second. Only Big Boss can withstand you. If you want someone who cares for your beauty, you should go find him.”

He already has someone he liked, Number Four wasn’t even on his radar.

Hearing Number Five referring Number One, Number Four’s expression worsen. She couldn’t help but snort coldly, “Hmph, you’re ‘Big Boss’ is like an iceberg, meditating everyday. It’s possible that he lost all of his seven emotions and six desires.”

Number Five sneered, “It seems you have tried to flirt with the Big Boss, but didn’t get the outcome you wanted.”

“Number Five!” Number Four’s face became pale instantly.

Number Five composed himself, stopped sneering and asked plainly, “You don’t come looking for me often. Tell me, what do you want?”

“Shouldn’t Ling Lan study under me now?” Number Four said as she bit her lip. Her chances were becoming slimmer and slimmer.

As Ling Lan entered 250 Mecha Clan and had climbed the ranks, the triplets, Number Six, Seven and Eight, smiled more and more often. There was no doubt that from Ling Lan’s current progress, the three of them would be able to teach their abilities soon. It was possible that after a very short while, the three of them would be teaching Ling Lan.

Only Number Four found herself losing hope as time goes on. The higher the rank Ling Lan acquires in the division, the more she strays away from being a cute feminine girl. Number Four even felt that Ling Lan was slowly becoming a man. Not a tomboy but a man. Ling Lan was becoming a real man. How could Number Four be not worried?

Originally, Number Four had gone to meet Big Boss Number One, but Number One didn’t have the intention of letting Number Four teach Ling Lan. He only said two words to Number Four, “Too early!”

“Still motherf***ing early?!” Number Four couldn’t help but swear. These stupid men just know power, power and power. Did they not know using a woman’s charm was also a powerful ability. Unfortunately, inside the learning space, she couldn’t communicate this into these old men’s thick skulls. The only one she could have some sort of communication with was that perverted Number Five. This was the reason why Number Four would come find Number Five.

“Does Number One not approve of you teaching Ling Lan?” Number Five was undoubtedly the smartest of the bunch, immediately understanding Number One’s decision from Number Four’s demeanor.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Don’t mention that iceberg to me!” Number Four suddenly exploded in anger. Immediately afterwards, she returned to her original flirtatious personality. She then smiled and said, “I’ve been temperamental lately, sorry about that.”

Number Five rolled his eyes. Was it because she wasn’t getting any action lately? It was indeed difficult for a demonic succubus like Number Four to patiently stay in the learning space for hundreds of years by herself. Especially so when she doesn’t have any chance to find other things to do in order to cope with her loneliness, so she was indeed quite pitiful. However, no matter how pitiful she was, Number Five didn’t plan on offending Number One. Since Number One had already made a decision, Number Five would of course not go against it, thus he could only apologize to Number Four for his actions.

“Number Four, you should know that we must all listen to Number One’s orders. Since Number One didn’t let you make any moves right now, then you can only wait.” Number Five affirmed his position on the matter.

“If I wait any longer, my chances will be close to nil.” Number Four could wait any longer. She slashed the air with her finger and images of Ling Lan from back then appeared. “Look, does Ling Lan look anything like a woman? Back then, you can still see some semblance of a female from her. Now, it’s all gone. From the front, side, and back. No matter which direction you look at, the feeling she gives others is a man, a man and a man... Are you guys really going to twist a girl’s mentality into a man’s?

Number Five scrutinized the images of Ling Lan. In the end, all of the images showed her having a sharp look in her eyes. With the killing intent emanating from her eyes, even Number Five felt a bit afraid of her.

Ling Lan had indeed become very strong, just as they had wanted her to grow into. However, her cold face no longer had any hint of being a woman, made Number Five frown uncontrollably. He remembered Ling Lan’s chubby and soft baby face. She was so cute beyond the bounds of her gender...

When did Ling Lan wear such a dominant face? It was almost a second ‘iceberg’ like Number One. She looked the same as the deity Number One hoped Ling Lan would be, who doesn’t have any indication of gender. The difference was worlds apart from the past.

Unknowingly, his disciple strayed too far. A monstrous individual that could turn the world upside down was not born, but an iceberg that could freeze people to death was born instead? Number Five felt frustrated. How did his disciple be so similar to Number One but him, the one who taught her?

Although he respected Big Boss Number One, he wasn’t willing to share his disciple. Number Five’s eyes showed a hint of determination.

As if she could read Number Five’s thoughts, Number Four’s flirtatious eyes glistened. She continued, “There’s still a chance to fix this if you let Ling Lan study under me. I will definitely make Ling Lan reacquire her charm as a woman and completely shatter that ‘iceberg’.

Number Five closed his eyes. Although he wanted to bring his disciple back on the right path, he still didn’t want to become Number Four’s scapegoat for punishment. Number Four didn’t want to cause a scene with Number One. Similarly, Number Five didn’t want to do that as well. In reality, he was someone who liked to plot against others in shadows. He wasn’t like Number Three, who was stupid enough to jump out in the open and fight Number One head on.

Number Five smiled, “Number Four, I’ve said this before. Only the Big Boss has the right to make a decision for this matter.” He casually expressed his feelings regarding this matter and how it had nothing to do with him.

Number Four frowned, “Number Five, you actually don’t care about Ling Lan’s life?”

Number Five found an empty space, crossed his legs and sat down. He closed his eyes and said calmly, “Number Four, you and I both know very well when we will be allowed to appear in front of Ling Lan. It is all based on Ling Lan’s choices. At first she wanted her body to become stronger, so Number Nine appeared in front of her first. She then has the heart of a warrior, so Number One came out next to teach her. She didn’t want to continue to be weak so that gave me, the pervert that I am, a chance to appear in front of her, using different methods to train her. After that, she wanted to learn about mechas and then Number Three appeared. She wanted to practice spiritual powers thus Number Two also appeared...”

“Our appearances were all related to what Ling Lan needed in her heart at different moments in her life. That’s why we were awakened. Thus, if Ling Lan didn’t have any thoughts of competing, Number Six, Seven and Eight would not have any chance to appear in front of her. You are the same. If Ling Lan’s female heart does not awaken, then you would never be able to get near her. You know this information very well so why would you be frustrated from this?

“Is it because you feel that it is impossible for Ling Lan to awaken her female heart by herself? So you want to use outside forces to force her to awaken?” Number Five immediately opened his eyes and a bright light flashed between them. It actually made Number Four shudder.

“It’s possible Number One already knew what you were thinking. That’s why he rejected your idea. Number Four, it is indeed too early.” Number Five closed his eyes once again. Using outside forces to force an awakening wasn’t impossible, but it will have a few side effects. For Number Five, he definitely wouldn’t want these unknown side effects on Ling Lan. Ling Lan was his most prized disciple.

It should be said that even though Ling Lan was considered very important by Number One and Number Five, Number Four still thought of the importance they placed on Ling Lan lightly. This was the reason why she was rejected every time she proposed something about Ling Lan. Number One and Number Five indeed didn’t want to anger Number Four, but they were paying more attention to Ling Lan’s livelihood. They would not allow any actions that could bring about any danger to Ling Lan.

“Alright, you guys are all satisfied and don’t care about me right?” Number Four smiled coldly. They were indeed protecting Ling Lan, but what about her? She didn’t even have a chance to appear before Ling Lan. This made her feel wronged. Even if they didn’t let her teach Ling Lan, it would still have been nice if they had let her meet Ling Lan a few times. They wouldn’t even let her do that?

The frustrated Number Four wasn’t that unreasonable and wanted to teach Ling Lan right at this moment. In actuality, Number Four knew very well that if Ling Lan didn’t want to, Ling Lan would not be able to learn very well, no matter how much she forced her to learn. She was only extremely lonely and just hoped she had a disciple to talk to. Was a demand like that difficult?

“It’s not that we don’t care about you. Didn’t the Big Boss say to wait?” Number Five frowned and had a headache from Number Four’s behavior.

“I waited from her past life to this life and then waited in this life until Ling Lan is 21 years old. How long do you guys want me to wait? Until Ling Lan becomes an old lady?” After speaking about waiting, Number Four completely broke down. She had already waited for a long time for a disciple right?

Number Five didn’t know what to say and knew Number Four was quite depressed. In her past life, Ling Lan had a heart of young lady but didn’t have the physical capabilities to activate the learning space. Even though Number Four had the thought of teaching Ling Lan, she wouldn’t have any way of getting close to her. In this life, Ling Lan’s body was strong enough to activate the learning space, but as luck would have it, she went on the path of becoming a dominant and strong individual. The heart of a young lady from her past life was tossed to some corner by Ling Lan. The amount of time Number Four had waited for Ling Lan was indeed quite long. It was no wonder that Number Four was so frustrated.

However, shouldn’t she have gone to the Big Boss to resolve this issue? Why did Number Four come to find him instead? Number Five suddenly realized it and instantly sighed. The Big Boss probably couldn’t handle Number Four, so he sent Number Four to come find him instead. Without a doubt, he had become the Big Boss’s scapegoat... Number Five instantly had a few words appear in his head, “Big Boss, you’re too crafty.”

Number One felt Number Five’s resentment while in his dimension. He opened his eyes slowly and then calmly closed them again, “Better you than me.” These words began to flow through the entire dimension...

After realizing he had been sold out by the Big Boss, Number Five seemed to be calm, but on the inside, his head was spinning. He was thinking about how to get rid of this troublesome woman... Sh*t, the best way to get rid of women like her was to give her a man. Did he have to give up his own body?

After thinking about the cold and sharp Number Nine, Number Five instantly calmed down. No matter how troublesome, he wouldn’t sell out his body. He still wants to have a chance to hold Number Nine’s little jade white hands. Number Five knew that he couldn’t give up his own body so he could only find another man...

As if they had heard Number Five’s thoughts, the other male instructors in the learning space instantly closed off their dimensions. They definitely wouldn’t let the two perverts, Number Four or Number Five, invade their world...

“A bunch of cowards.” Number Five said in his mind. Suddenly he saw that within the perverse training method he had developed, there was a small chubby boy looking around with interest. He instantly had an idea.

Number Five opened his eyes and smiled, “Number Four, you haven’t taught anyone your abilities in a long time right?”

After hearing Number Five asking about her profession, Number Four’s mood calmed down a bit. She sighed and said, “Yeah. Let me count. Sh*t, it’s almost been hundreds of years.”

“Then you should get familiar with your teaching materials in case when Ling Lan wants it, if not you wouldn’t be able to teach her well”, Number Five reminded.

“Are you doubting my abilities?” Number Four squinted her eyes and a hint of killing intent appeared in her eyes. She was sharpening her weapons, getting ready to teach a lesson to this despicable Number Five. She hated people who did not trust her skills.

“Of course not. I’m only saying that before Ling Lan discovers her female charm, you should find a student and to be more familiar with your teaching materials. This way you would know how to teach a student, so you won’t be like us, messing up a lot in the beginning. Thus made Ling Lan suspect our capabilities. In the end, we used a herculean amount of effort before managing to have Ling Lan reinforce our overpowering image in her mind.” In order to get Number Four to listen his arrangements, Number Five began to make things up.

“Really?” Number Four said with a hint of suspicion in her voice. She never heard others speak about something like this. All of the instructors who came into contact with Ling Lan all praised how their disciple was good and whatnot. It was also because of these people showing off that made her become jealous and frustrated. She wanted to quickly come in contact with this excellent disciple all the instructors raving about.

“Of course, no one would want to tell others about these humiliating things right?” Number Five smiled and said.

Although Number Four didn’t fully believe Number Five’s words, she still wanted to avoid something like that happening if by any chance his words were true. She was already behind the other instructors in terms of time. If her teaching was also worse, wouldn’t her position in Ling Lan’s heart be gone?

Number Four decided that no matter if it was real or fake, she should still pay attention to it. However, after thinking about finding a student, she became depressed. If she could teach other students then why would she be frustrated from not being able to teach Ling Lan?

“What you’re saying is nice, but I need to find a student first right? Where am I going to find one? In this space, isn’t there only just Ling Lan?” Number Four was depressed. Was Number Five playing games with her? His suggestions were impossible for her to do.

Number Five smirked and pointed towards a certain corner.

Number Four looked over with a bit of suspicion in her heart. Her eyes glimmered as though she had seen something, “A chubby little boy.”

“He’s a very good person to teach. Congratulations.” Number Five didn’t hesitate to sell out Little Blossom.

Number Four was angry and flipped, “Number Five you bastard. That’s a child and he’s also a man.”

She taught mature female charms. Please be advised, it was ‘mature female charms’. The main reason was of course the mature level. How could this little kid with five hairs on his head with his bare butt still showing have any connection with being mature? This wasn’t even the most important part. Didn’t he hear the second part? Female charms. He should at least give a girl. What was she going to do with a little boy? This isn’t how someone should swindle someone...

“What’s wrong with a boy? If you really could develop this little boy into a monster, then when Ling Lan needs you, wouldn’t it be much easier for you teach her? What else could be difficult for you if you could teach a boy?” Number Five smiled and said. “Also, you’re bored anyways. You can take that little chubby kid and play with him. If you break him, no one would blame you.”

“Really?” Number Four raised her brow flirtatiously and a flash of light glimmered past. Even Number Five, who’s heart belonged to someone else, had his heart skipped a beat uncontrollably. If it wasn’t for the fact that his smiling face had already become a habit, Number Four might have detected his lies.

Number Four was as expected the most charming out of the nine of them. She was the real killer in the shadows. This was also why it was difficult for Number One to face Number Four. Number Five thought about this in his mind, but his spoke with determination, “Of course.”

Number Four smirked. With a new toy in hand, she instantly felt better about not meeting Ling Lan, calming her down. She took back 70%-80% of charms. Her eyes began to move and glanced at Number Five with a flirtatious look, “I didn’t think that Little Five cared about me this much. Then your elder sister will take advantage of Little Five’s graciousness.”

Number Five felt his body shake. It wasn’t for the fact that he had somewhat of a clear mind, it was possible that his soul may have been taken by Number Four. He closed his eyes and began to mumble something under his breath.

“I didn’t think that Little Five liked to recite those Buddhist scriptures from Ling Lan’s previous live. Does it really have any effect?” Number Four suddenly appeared behind Number Five. She hugged him and blew into his ear as she smiled flirtatiously.

Number Five’s body shook off Number Four.

“Little Five, you really don’t know how to take care of a woman.” Number Four wasn’t angry but instead smiled flirtatiously.

Number Five finally opened his eyes and returned to his clear-mindedness, “Elder Sister Four, you don’t need to play with me anymore. Little Five can’t take it. If Elder Sister Four doesn’t like that little chubby boy, then just disregard what I said earlier.” Number Five returned to his previous smiling face.

Number Four frowned. She hardly managed to get a toy. If Number Five actually doesn’t give it to her, then it would be real troublesome. Thus she replied, “Alright, I’ll let you go this time. Next time, if you dare to plot against me, don’t think you’ll get off that easily.”

Number Five’s expression didn’t show the embarrassment in his heart. He was still calm as the wind as put his hands out in respect, “Thanks for your understanding Elder Sister Four.”

Right as Number Four was about to leave, she suddenly turned around before Number Five could react and pounced on him, “Little Five, I really like you. Next time your elder sister will come play with you alright?”

Number Four caressed Number Five’s face. In the next second, she disappeared into the chubby kid’s training area to go find her little boy.

Let us say a few prayers for Little Blossom’s depressing future.

“Number Five, you’re despicable and shameless!” A cold snort came from behind Number five. The smile that Number Five had on his face instantly crumbled. He immediately turned and shouted, “Number Nine, it’s not what you think...”

“Crash!” A flash of light struck down. Number Five quickly dodged, the flash of light skimmed his face. The lightning crashed into the ground and instantly created a large hole in the ground.

Seeing Number Nine’s terrifying attack, Number Five had cold sweat dripping down his forehead. He almost became a eunuch. Even if they were only spiritual entities, that ‘thing’ was still very important...

“Number Nine, I did not do anything with Number Four.” Number Five saw Number Nine looking at him coldly and finally knew why Number Four had done what she did before she left. It was clearly to get back at him for plotting against her. That annoying woman. Next time when he sees her, he would definitely not let her live it down.

Number Four’s behavior was already testing Number Five’s limits. Number Five actually became angry. However, he shouldn’t be in a hurry to take revenge on Number Four. The most important thing was how could he get on Number Nine’s good side again. Sh*t... He will definitely kill Number Four. The situation he created after all those years of hard work was completely destroyed by her.

“Don’t explain anything to me. I just want to ask you. Why did you sell out Little Blossom?” Number Nine asked calmly. What did Number Five and Number Four’s relationship have anything to do with her? But Little Blossom belonged to Ling Lan. Why did Number Five give him to Number Four to train? If Little Blossom got hurt, wouldn’t Ling Lan be sad?

In Number Nine’s mind, no one else was more important than Ling Lan. Whoever made Ling Lan sad, she would definitely not let them off easy. Even if Number Four and Five were stronger than her, she would still fight with them with all her might.

“Don’t you think Little Blossom is too naive? That’s not how the Doomsday Flower should behave.” Number Five realized that Number Nine’s attention wasn’t on his relationship with Number Four. He breathed a sigh of relief, but still felt disappointed. It seems that his image in Number Nine’s mind was still terrible.

Number Five was only disappointed for an instant but he regained his fighting spirit in the next second. The road ahead was still long. He still needs to work hard to get Number Nine’s heart. Number Five pumped himself up.

Number Five’s words made Number Nine think deeply for a moment, “So you want Number Four to teach him? But what can she teach him? You might as well teach him yourself if you let her teach.” Number Nine did not agree with Number Five’s decision.

Number Five smiled bitterly. Originally, he was going to teach him. Who knew that Number One would pass him the troublesome Number Four for him to resolve the issue. With a look of dismay on his face, he looked at Number Nine, who didn’t know what actually happened. Could it be that all of this was caused by their Big Boss, Number One?

Number Five swallowed this idea into his stomach. Even if he explained, Number Nine would still probably believe that he should take responsibility. Number Five clearly knew that Number Nine admired her Big Brother Number One.

“You actually think that Number Four only has the ability of using female charm? If that was the case, then she wouldn’t be ordered in front of me and become Number Four,” Number Five said softly.

In reality, the numbers the nine of them were assigned were not random. It was actually based on their power. Number One was was already their Big Boss so being first was justified. Number Two was low-key but Number Five knew of Number Two’s abstract and terrifying methods. If he fought against Number Two, he Number Five would probably be the one who dies. As for Number Three, his physical skills were not that strong compared to them, but in the Mandora star system, biomechas were considered to be overpowered. Once Number three pilots a biomecha, even Number One would not be able to defeat Number Three. Thus, he was the third strongest. The others didn’t have any disagreements about it.

Back then, Number Five actually hoped he would be ranked fourth. It was just that back then when he fought with Number Four, he read one of her moves wrongly, resulting in him being fifth instead... It was also the reason why Number Five knew how terrifying Number Four could be from their battle. This reason was also why he decided to let Number Four teach Little Blossom. Although Number Five was also using Little Blossom to get out of the situation, he wouldn’t actually harm Little Blossom. Number Four was still a powerful and methodical individual.

After hearing Number Five’s words, Number Nine instantly went into deep thought. She was the last one to enter the learning space, so she automatically became the last member. However, she had once heard Number One said that the rankings of the people in front of her were quite intense, many large battles had taken place. Now that she thought about it, Number One probably meant the battle between Number Four and Five.

“Alright, if you think it’s fine then I won’t say anything else. However, if something were to happen to Little Blossom or if Ling Lan becomes sad, you and Number Four will feel my wrath,” Number Nine left these to Number Five, then left his dimension.

Seeing his dimension being treated like a door where anyone could just pass through, Number Five felt frustrated. However, he didn’t want to close off these openings either... What if Number Nine wanted to come here again and couldn’t get in, wouldn’t she be saddened by that? Number Five comforted himself this way.

It turns out, in order to get even the slightest chance of meeting Number Nine, even though Number Five knew he had holes everywhere in his dimension, he pretended to not know they existed. This gave Little Blossom a chance to enter his dimension to hide and in turn also let Number Four easily tear open his dimension’s barrier and enter his dimension.

Ling Lan didn’t know what had happened in the learning space. She only knew that she would be ruthlessly teaching Little Four a lesson to let him know the result of looking down on her was going to be morbid.

After calming down, Ling Lan continued to ask questions to XXQ1, “Then what do you remember when you were completely finished?” That punk Little Four actually created an intelligent entity without her knowing about it. Furthermore, it somehow got into Lin Zhong-qing’s hands, becoming the mainframe of the XXQ1 base camp in the end.

“I’m not sure. When I woke up, I was already in the warehouse of the 250 Mecha Clan. It was Senior Captain Lin who found me.” XXQ1 sobbed as she spoke. She felt sad after thinking back to how she was found through all the landfill in the warehouse. It was as though she wasn’t good enough and was tossed aside.

“Warehouse? I see.” Although Ling Lan felt it was odd that XXQ1 had appeared in the warehouse, it could explain how Lin Zhong-qing managed to get his hands on it. After thinking about it, Ling Lan knew that Little Four wouldn’t talk with anyone other than her. Therefore, Lin Zhong-qing wouldn’t be able to acquire XXQ1 from Little Four.

“Master, please give me a name, I don’t want to be called XXQ1.” XXQ1 finally mentioned something she had always wanted. Couldn’t she have been given a nicer sounding name? She was a girl after all.

“Is your name not XXQ1?” Ling Lan was stunned.

“Of course not. That name was given to me by those men who stood beside Senior Captain Lin. They didn’t even ask me for my opinion on the matter and gave me a name only a man would use,” said the intelligent entity spitefully. It seemed that in the beginning, she didn’t know what was happening and didn’t want to offend anyone. Thus she accepted the name that she didn’t like. Now that she had met her real master, she would of course request a name change.

“Does the person who discovers your first not name you?” Ling Lan suddenly said playfully.

“Of course not. My creator had already set my master as you, Ling Lan, from the very beginning. Even if I was activated by others, I would only temporarily obey them. However, if you, my master, comes, then I would belong to you.” The intelligent entity finally told Ling Lan about her settings before being born into this world.

“So I am your master from the very beginning.” Ling Lan’s eyes began to water with a hint of sadness. “Little Four, no matter what you do, you always think about me. Even if you nurtured a new intelligent entity, you didn’t even forget to set her master as me, Ling Lan. However, all of this isn’t what I want. The thing that I want most is for you, Little Four, to be with me. Be with me when the sky’s gray. Look at this world and its flourishing infrastructure... Little Four, when will you wake up and call me ‘Boss’ in a clear and sharp voice everyday?”

“Boss!”

Ling Lan’s heart trembled. Did she miss Little Four that much that she was hearing things?

“Boss, you have someone new to play with now? So you don’t want me anymore?” Little Four appeared in front of Ling Lan all teared up. His eyes were filled with sadness.

Little Four? Ling Lan couldn’t help but rub her eyes. She saw Little Four standing in front of her. She then looked at the virtual girl who had an expression full of shock.

As expected, she missed Little Four too much so she heard wrongly and saw an illusion. Ling Lan lifted her head and looked up... Little Four actually appeared with XXQ1 in the real world. It seemed her brain had become jumbled.
