Dragon Clan: Start by obtaining the Sett panel

Chapter 104 What happened to my brother Gu?
"The mission has been accomplished...Norma, help me notify the nearest executive officer and have them clean up the mess." Inside the abandoned factory, Gu Ye spoke into the phone as he looked at the dying hybrid at his feet.

"I understand, Gu Ye. The executive specialist has been notified. Thank you for your hard work." Norma's voice rang out on the phone. Gu Ye wiped the blood off his hands, then found a place to sit down and check the system panel.

[Name: Gu Ye]

[Race: Human (Dragon)]

[Strength]: SS
[Speed]: SS
[Resilience]: SS
[Magic (Magic Resist)]: S

[Unlock progress of the Supreme Dragon Skin: 45%]

"Is there still such a big gap? If I had a dragon, I wouldn't be so slow." Gu Ye couldn't help but complain and put away the system panel.

A year has passed since he returned to China. During this time, Gu Ye went to school while cooperating with Kassel Academy to clean up some half-bloods. However, after the system panel grew to its current level, it seemed to have stagnated. Except for the slow progress of skin unlocking, other attributes remained at the previous level.

Moreover, after so many missions, the progress of skin unlocking has become slower and slower, which gives Gu Ye a headache. Ordinary hybrids can no longer allow him to make any further progress. It seems that it is time to go to Kassel and really start slaying dragons.

"Mom, what's wrong?" The phone rang and Gu Ye quickly picked up the phone, pretending nothing had happened.

"Oh... Xia Mi and I are together now. I will be back soon."

"Xia Mi won't come today. She said she'll come next time."

"Don't worry, I will send her back safely. That's all. I'll be back soon."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Ye kicked the hybrid beside him and put the phone back into his pocket.

Xia Mi was just as Gu Ye imagined, and was very much liked by Gu Xinya. When Gu Xinya was with Xia Mi, their relationship was even more like that of a parent and child than when she was with Gu Ye. Sometimes Gu Ye would feel a little jealous.

Every time he went on a mission, he would pretend to be on a date with Xia Mi. Fortunately, Xia Mi understood him very well, so she didn't reveal any flaws.

Buzz! The sound of a motorcycle appeared outside the factory. Gu Ye knew that it was the executive officer coming. He picked up the hybrid and walked towards the door.

"You have to go to school tomorrow, change your clothes and go home..."

During the day, in the second grade classroom of Shilan Middle School.

Lu Mingfei was reading a book seriously. Since he made that decision, he once again became the only marginalized figure in the class.

But unlike before, now he just wants to get into a better university, so he has never slept in class again. I don’t know whether he is studying hard for his parents or because Gu Ye’s previous advice has worked.

"Dear students, Gu Ye and Chu Zihang have been admitted to Cassell College, a friendly school of the University of Chicago. They will no longer study with you. Let us wish Gu Ye a bright future... We..." The teacher's voice rang out at the podium, and Lu Mingfei's mind went blank.

He only heard one sentence, which was "Gu Ye will not study with everyone in the future." In other words... is Brother Gu leaving? Lu Mingfei stared blankly at Gu Ye on the podium.

"Starting tomorrow I won't come to school anymore. I'm very grateful for everyone's care during this period..." Gu Ye spoke eloquently at the podium.

But Lu Mingfei didn't listen to a word he said. He was still in a daze until school was over in the afternoon and didn't even notice how he left the school.

Having hidden from Gu Ye for so long, he never thought that he would say goodbye to him so soon. He clearly didn't even have the chance to say a word of apology.

"Lu Mingfei, your backer is leaving! Are you scared now?" Xu Yanyan's huge body blocked Lu Mingfei's way. Lu Mingfei didn't pay attention and bumped into him, and was thrown to the ground.

"I've tolerated you for a long time... Now there's no one to protect you anymore, right?" Xu Miaomiao stood behind Lu Mingfei with a sly smile on her face.

Although Lu Mingfei deliberately distanced himself from Gu Ye during this year, the two did not usually hang out together at school, so other people did not notice a problem.

After Lu Mingfei's grades improved from the bottom to the upper middle, the person who had always been ridiculed before was now able to surpass them, making the two brothers, who were like "Heng Ha Er Jiang" very embarrassed. If they were not afraid of Gu Ye, they would have taught Lu Mingfei a lesson long ago.

"What do you want to do?" Lu Mingfei mustered up the courage to stare at Xu Yanyan in front of him. Although he was very scared, he also knew that now was not the time to show his cowardice.

“What do you want to do? You’ll know after Gu Ye leaves. You’ll suffer then.” Xu Yanyan’s eyes revealed a hint of pride. Lu Mingfei’s current expression looked like the loser who had always been suppressed by him…

"Zhao Menghua, don't you care about them?" Looking at Zhao Menghua with his arms crossed not far away, Lu Mingfei reminded loudly.

"Take care of them? They are not my men... Why should I take care of them?" Zhao Menghua chuckled and prepared to enjoy this farce. Although he looked down on Lu Mingfei, he was still happy to see Gu Ye's friends being bullied by his men. So what if he is arrogant? After he leaves, won't Shilan still be my world, Zhao Menghua?

"Who suffered this?" A pair of hands were placed on Xu Yanyan's shoulders. He subconsciously turned his head and wanted to curse, but he saw Gu Ye's cold eyes.

"Gu...Gu Ye? Why didn't you leave!"

"Lu Mingfei, my friend... don't think you can do whatever you want after I leave. You should know that I will be back in the summer vacation. You don't need me to remind you where you live, right?" Gu Ye pointed at Lu Mingfei and said to the three of them. "Brother Gu..." Lu Mingfei didn't know what expression he should use to face Gu Ye, but he didn't dare to look him in the eye.

"What's so great about that... Let's go..." Xu Yanyan was about to ask Zhao Menghua for help, but when she looked up, she found that he had already run away in his family car. She could only utter a harsh word and escape quickly with Xu Miaomiao.

"Tsk... You don't let me feel at ease even though I'm about to leave. Go home." Patting Lu Mingfei's shoulder, Gu Ye spoke to him as he did in the past.

"Brother Gu...I..." Lu Mingfei wanted to say something incoherently, but Gu Ye interrupted him.

He already knew what this little brother was thinking, and it was right for him to stay away from him, at least he would not be in danger, just like he had deliberately avoided contact with Su Xiaoqiang in the past year. But now that he was leaving, he didn't need to think too much, just finish what he wanted to do.

"Okay, I'm a little thirsty, buy me a bottle of Nutri-Express."

"Okay! I'll go right away!" Lu Mingfei held back his tears, nodded, and quickly ran towards the convenience store.

A few minutes later, Gu Ye and Lu Mingfei were walking side by side on their way home.

"You should be more careful in the future. I can't help you anymore. By the way...you should also help Su Xiaoqiang more. You know her personality. She always offends people easily." While drinking Nutri-Express, Gu Ye whispered to Lu Mingfei.

"I understand, Brother Gu... and I'm sorry." Lu Mingfei nodded. At this moment, time seemed to have gone back to the past. He really hoped that time would stay at this moment.

"What are you sorry for...just drink your Nutri-Express, you wimp."

A few days later, outside the airport.

Since they were specially recruited, the school was very proud of them, so when Chu Zihang and Gu Ye left, the school teachers and classmates came to the airport to see them off.

After hugging Xia Mi and her mother, Gu Ye and Chu Zihang waved goodbye to Shi Lan’s teachers and classmates.

"Why are you so proud? Who knows what kind of fake university Kassel is..."

Lu Mingfei, who had just watched Gu Ye leave, heard Zhao Menghua's disdainful voice in the corner.

"That's right, I've never heard of this school. I guess it's a scam school? Maybe he and Chu Zihang can only wash dishes in the United States..." Xu Yanyan echoed Zhao Menghua's words.

Lu Mingfei felt a surge of anger rushing to his head. He could no longer hold back his impulse and rushed towards Zhao Menghua, punching him in the face.

"What did you say about my brother Gu?!"

“Lu Mingfei! Are you crazy!!” Feeling the pain on his face, Zhao Menghua took a lot of effort to pull Lu Mingfei away. He raised his hand to punch him, but saw his eyes full of anger.

It was as if a sleeping lion was waking up in the angry eyes, and the oppressive look made Zhao Menghua couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Chen Wenwen, who was standing by, finally reacted and checked Zhao Menghua's injuries. She wanted to scold Lu Mingfei, but after seeing his eyes, she closed her mouth.

“Don’t let me hear you say bad things about Brother Gu again!” After saying this, Lu Mingfei turned around and ran to the front.

It took Zhao Menghua a long time to react. He touched his painful cheek and couldn't help spitting.

"Damn bad luck!" Although he said this, Zhao Menghua still felt uneasy. He always felt that Lu Mingfei seemed to have changed suddenly, but he didn't know what had changed.

But the only thing he knew was that the bad boy who was often bullied in the past didn't seem so easy to deal with now. At least he didn't dare to say anything arrogant to Lu Mingfei, who had only anger in his eyes.

"Brother Gu!!! Have a safe trip!!! I'll be waiting for you to come back!!"

"Huh? Is this Lu Mingfei?" Chu Zihang turned his head and was a little surprised to see Lu Mingfei shouting loudly.

"Hahaha, this kid finally looks a bit manly." Gu Ye smiled without looking back, but raised his fist high.

Lu Mingfei, who was far away, saw Gu Ye's action and raised his fist high without hesitation.

Goodbye, Brother Gu... I will never let you down next time we meet, I promise...

　Finally finished this section. I still wrote Lu Mingfei’s growth a little briefly, but I always felt that it was not good to drag it out like this, so I decided to finish it in one go.

　　I try my best to make up for some of the regrets of my youth, at least I don’t want Lu Mingfei to always be a bad boy.

　　It's not that he won't grow up, it's just that he has been trapped at the age of 18 by some people. It has been so long that we have lost our expectations of him.
