Chapter 69: Magneto: Where's my daughter? (Seeking Follow-up Reads)

Zhao Zheng was aware that he might face retaliation.

After all, those new students were someone else's children!

Of course.

If he had to do it again, Zhao Zheng would still kill all those new students!

It wasn't like he主动挑事 initiated the conflict.

Those people came to his door wanting to kill him and Song Haitang, so couldn't he fight back?

His actions were self-defense!

Zhao Zheng was just curious what kind of dirty tricks the other side could use with the "Spirit Realm Covenant" in place.

"Dirty tricks?" Zhao Zheng asked, "What kind of dirty tricks?"

Song Haitang thought for a moment and said, "Someone like Ethan Smith, a celebrity, is under a lot of scrutiny for every move he makes, so he definitely won't come after us personally. The top experts on our side also won't allow him to come here and cause trouble."

"The most likely scenario is that he'll send some supernatural assassins, or simply post an anonymous bounty on the dark web, offering a reward for our heads. As long as the amount he offers is high enough, people will naturally be tempted."

Zhao Zheng frowned slightly upon hearing this.

He had heard of some supernatural assassin organizations in this world, and some of their ace assassins were terrifying.

Right now, his strength might allow him to rule the roost among the new students, but he couldn't be considered a strong individual in the supernatural community.

If those assassins came, it would indeed be a bit troublesome.

"Zhao Zheng, after we go back, why don't you move back to the school temporarily?"

Song Haitang suggested, "Every year after the second level of the Spirit Realm for new students, some disputes arise. To deal with this situation and protect the students' safety, all the major supernatural universities hire some strong individuals to act as 'protectors'."

"So, staying at school is the safest option. Those assassins wouldn't dare to directly enter the school to carry out assassinations."

This was a good suggestion.

However, moving back to school was too much trouble.

His sunbathing equipment was so big that it couldn't even fit through the dormitory door, and the school definitely wouldn't allow him to modify the dormitory.

When the time came, he would still have to go outside to receive artificial sunlight.

Directly have the school customize one?

Sorry!

He didn't have that much influence.

"I'm fine, it's mainly you." Zhao Zheng said, "Haitang, I think even if that Magneto wants to retaliate, the primary target will definitely be you. I'm just a secondary target at most... So, you need to be careful."

This was certain.

After all, in everyone's minds, the Kryptonian bloodline didn't have any abilities. Even if Zhao Zheng obtained a lot of spirit energy points in the first level of the Spirit Realm, he still didn't have the ability to hunt other strong new students.

Only Song Haitang, the genius, could do it.

"I know, I usually won't leave the school."

Song Haitang suddenly asked, "Zhao Zheng, when I asked you to team up before, you didn't agree at first. Later, you suddenly agreed to team up with me. Was it because you knew that the Spirit Realm could check scores, and you deliberately used me as a shield?"

"Uh..."

That was a good question!

As expected, nothing could be hidden from this girl.

Zhao Zheng hesitated for a moment, feeling it was better to tell the truth.

Because the answer to this question was too obvious!

Continuing to deceive her would be treating Song Haitang like an idiot.

"At first, I did have that idea, to give you all the fame and hide behind the scenes, because I didn't want to expose the potential of the Kryptonian bloodline for the time being. It's just that I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing in the second level of the Spirit Realm..."

Song Haitang nodded.

She could understand Zhao Zheng's thoughts.

Suddenly, the girl revealed a smile: "In that case, I have to thank the Spirit Realm's score checking function. If it weren't for its existence, I wouldn't have been able to latch onto your coattails."

Zhao Zheng smiled awkwardly.

After all, at the beginning, he had firmly rejected Song Haitang's request to team up!

【Please note: You will be teleported back in 30 seconds, 29, 28, 27...】

At this time, a prompt popped up in both of their left eyes.

Seeing the prompt, the two interrupted their chat, stood up, and prepared to return.

If they remained seated, they would be sitting on the ground after being teleported back...

30 seconds passed.

All the new students in the second level of the Spirit Realm disappeared from the Spirit Realm.

......

Blue Star.

Inside a huge, luxurious manor, the famous Ethan Smith was sitting on the sofa, enjoying his wine.

Besides him, there were also several middle-aged couples beside him, drinking and talking about interesting things, their words filled with flattery towards Ethan.

These middle-aged couples were the parents of the supernatural new students.

Their children were teammates with Mr. Ethan's daughter, so they were qualified to be invited to "Smith Manor" to wait for their children's return with the important figure Ethan.

Time passed by second by second.

A slightly balding middle-aged man glanced at the clock on the wall and suddenly reminded, "The time is almost up."

As soon as he said this, the wealthy women put down their wine glasses, tidied their appearances, and sat upright, revealing a dignified and noble side.

The gentlemen did the same.

Only Mr. Ethan had a smile on his face and didn't make any movements.

The next moment.

On the empty carpet in front of everyone, a figure appeared out of thin air.

The new students had returned.

However, only one person returned!

Everyone's expression changed drastically!!

They were all high-level elites of the Federal States, and they were extremely clear about the rules of the Spirit Realm.

As long as they weren't teleported back when the time came, it meant that an accident had occurred in the Spirit Realm, and they would never return.

"My child!!"

A wealthy woman couldn't hold back any longer and fell to the ground, wailing loudly in the direction of the air.

The other middle-aged men and women also had faces full of pain, unable to accept the reality.

Among the crowd, only one couple didn't have a sorrowful expression on their faces.

Because their child had returned alive.

However, this couple's faces weren't filled with joy, but rather with panic.

They knew that although their child had returned, in the current situation, nothing good awaited their child.

"Clang!"

A crisp sound.

It was Ethan's expensive crystal glass that he had crushed, and all the red wine in the glass had spilled on Ethan's expensive clothes.

However, Ethan couldn't care about these things.

At this moment, Mr. Ethan no longer had the calm composure and important figure demeanor he had before.

His face was ashen, gloomy, and twisted, and his expression was very terrifying.

"Tell me! What happened in the Spirit Realm? Where is my daughter?" Ethan said.

His tone was full of anger.

The only young man who had returned alive was startled by Ethan's voice.

At this moment, he had already understood that his teammates, including Miss Smith, had all been left in the Spirit Realm.

This meant that Miss Smith's plan had completely failed!

It had failed very thoroughly, even dragging herself down with it.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Smith, Miss Dale ordered me to wait in place..."

The young man stuttered and explained the course of events.

It had to be said that Miss Smith was quite cunning.

She was afraid that her plan would fail, or even cost her life, and that no one would pass on the information to her father.

So, she deliberately left a teammate behind, hidden elsewhere.

Unexpectedly.

This move actually came in handy.

......

After listening to the young man's explanation, everyone finally understood what their children had done in the Spirit Realm.

However, when they heard that their children had joined forces with a large group of people to snipe at the genius girl from the Eastern Xia Country, not a single one of them felt that their children had done anything wrong.

It was as if Song Haitang should obediently stretch out her neck to be hunted by their children.

Including Ethan himself, he also held this view.

"Are you saying that Dale organized more than forty people to besiege those two new students, but not only did it fail? They were also completely wiped out? Not a single survivor was left?"

Ethan's tone was still very cold, like a volcano about to erupt.

However, his face carried a few traces of disbelief.

The young man said tremblingly, "Mr. Smith, I swear everything I said is the truth. At the time, Miss Dale told me to stay far away, so I don't know what happened inside that room, or whether there were any survivors among the forty-plus members who participated in the siege."

"Is that so? Then what use are you alive?"

As soon as he finished speaking.

Ethan's finger moved slightly, and all the metal knives and forks on the nearby table flew over, instantly stabbing the young man into a hedgehog.

The young man widened his eyes, and before he could even let out a scream, he fell to the ground and died!

Fresh blood stained the expensive carpet red.

Such a scene immediately frightened many people.

"No! My child!!"

The young man's mother shouted and wanted to rush over.

But she was held back by her husband.

Ethan noticed the look of resentment in that husband's eyes and coldly asked, "Mr. Campbell, do you have any opinions on my actions?"

At this moment, Ethan's face was full of rage and tyranny.

He didn't mind killing two more people to vent his anger!

Hearing this, the husband immediately lowered his head: "Little Campbell didn't protect Miss Dale well, it was his dereliction of duty. I have no objections to your handling of it."

From beginning to end, he didn't even dare to look at Ethan, appearing extremely cowardly.

Ethan, however, was somewhat impressed by Campbell.

As far as he knew, Campbell only had this one son.

To be able to endure after witnessing his only son die tragically in front of him, this Mr. Campbell was also a ruthless person.
