Chapter 96
Chapter 96: You secretly like my uncle, you got close to me on purpose so you can be my aunt, Scummy Woman
As Jiang Tea Tea’s sharp questioning voice fell, Huang Da Zhuang, Sui Xuan Chu and the others rushed to her side on reflex.
Cheng Lin Yue ran the fastest and reached Jiang Tea Tea before the others. She grabbed her arm and pulled her back two steps, asking with nervous concern: “Sister Tea, are you alright? Are you hurt?”
Chong Ming, the Commander in Chief, had such powerful supernatural abilities and spiritual power that even if a little bit of his attack leaked out and hit Sister Tea, it would be terrible.
Sister Tea was a pregnant, fragile pure human. How could she be his match?
If the cubs in her belly were struck by supernatural abilities and spiritual power from different Dragon Clans, they could easily be injured and turn into dragons with low intelligence and stunted bodies.
Sui Xuan Chu and the other six beastman males were already lined up neatly in front, blocking in front of Jiang Tea Tea and Cheng Lin Yue. They were just like they were on the Supremacy Tournament field, putting themselves in front to protect the weakest.
As Jiang Tea Tea moved farther away from Chong Ming, the cramping in her belly eased a little.
From the moment Chong Ming’s warship appeared, she had carefully kept any of her aura from leaking out, to protect the cubs and keep anyone from noticing them.
Now she stirred her spiritual power again, silently chanting spell incantations as she cast layer after layer of spiritual power protection over her belly and over her whole body.
Only after she was sure her body and belly were wrapped left and right with layers of spiritual power, solid as stone, did she answer Cheng Lin Yue: “I’m fine. I feel better now, you don’t need to worry.”
Cheng Lin Yue was clearly scared to death and also burning with worship for her idol, but she still stood in front of Jiang Tea Tea and faced her own idol.
She raised her voice and said: “Commander in Chief Chong Ming, your imperial authority and supernatural abilities are S-level 10. My teammate and schoolmate Jiang Tea Tea only looks tough. In fact, she is very delicate and doesn’t have much attack power.”
“If you use supernatural abilities above S-level 10 to attack her, you can easily hurt her and cause damage that can’t be erased.”
“It was already not easy for her to live this long and get here. If you’re unhappy with her, please don’t make things hard for her. You can come at me instead. I can take it.”
Who said the little rabbit was socially anxious and timid like a mouse?
The little rabbit was clearly very brave. For the cubs in her belly, she could even face this old mud loach Chong Ming.
For a moment, all of Jiang Tea Tea’s attention was on the back of Cheng Lin Yue’s head. As someone at the Great Demon Stage, being protected like this felt very strange.
Cheng Xiao Ting was speechless.
His little roommate was really double standard. Sister Tea could twist off Cheng Lin Yue’s skull with a flick of her hand, yet now she was telling Commander in Chief Chong Ming that Sister Tea was weak and couldn’t even take care of herself?
Alright, alright. Now he had truly seen just how thick the filter in his little roommate’s eyes was. She didn’t even bother to act or pretend.
Sui Xuan Chu braced himself and spoke too: “Commander in Chief Chong Ming, your spiritual power level is higher than everyone else here. My roommate is still young. She can’t stand your supernatural ability and spiritual power attacks.”
“If you want to know our strength, you don’t need to test us. Just say the word, and we’ll tell you ourselves.”
He did believe his uncle wouldn’t attack people for no reason, but his uncle wanted to train his roommate as the Commander in Chief of the Three Armies. In that case, he couldn’t be sure whether his uncle would attack her to train her sensitivity and stress tolerance.
Huang Da Zhuang’s brain worked differently from others. As soon as he opened his mouth, he said: “Commander in Chief Chong Ming, our Sister Tea truly earned first place in personal points with real skill. Please don’t doubt her, attack her, or test her.”
“I’m the most useless one in our squad. I only got eighth place in personal points by riding on Sister Tea’s coattails and on the coattails of our other teammates.”
“How about you deduct my points instead? Please don’t blame Sister Tea. She’s the best, the most loyal, and she takes care of me the most.”
Orange Sparrow and the others quickly echoed: “Yes, yes, Commander in Chief Chong Ming, in all 123 rounds of the Supremacy Tournament, Sister Tea was the one who really earned the most points.”
“We useless teammates only picked up points while following behind her and playing little tricks, but we promise we never broke the Supremacy Tournament rules. Every point we got followed the Supremacy Tournament rules. Please don’t make things hard for our teammate. Whatever happens, we’re willing to bear it together with her.”
Chong Ming slowly drew back the hand he had stretched out and clasped it behind his back. His golden eyes calmly swept over the people blocking him in front: “First, I give you the highest praise for the pure friendship between you and for your squad’s unity.”
“Second.” Chong Ming’s gaze fell on Jiang Tea Tea. “Schoolmate Jiang Tea Tea, I think you misunderstood. You are immune to my oppressive aura.”
“By the same logic, if I attack you with supernatural abilities and spiritual power, you’re also immune, unless I condense my supernatural ability into something solid and actually strike you with lightning or burn you with fire. Only then will you be seriously hurt, affected, or even die.”
Sui Xuan Chu and the other six all turned their heads in unison to look at Jiang Tea Tea behind them. What had they just heard? Sister Tea was immune to their idol’s supernatural abilities and oppressive aura? What did that mean? Did it mean Sister Tea would never have her legs go weak in front of their idol?
Jiang Tea Tea could clearly feel the cubs in her belly becoming far too lively after being hit by that wave of supernatural ability and spiritual power just now, even more lively than they had been during this last month on Hot Sand Star.
Jiang Tea Tea met Chong Ming’s golden eyes and asked: “You didn’t attack me with devouring-type supernatural abilities. You only released spiritual power oppressive aura against me?”
Chong Ming answered openly and honestly: “Yes. It was the same as every time we met before. I wanted to confirm again, so I increased the spiritual power oppressive aura to see if you were still immune.”
Jiang Tea Tea understood. Without the soothing supernatural ability and spiritual power from their real father, the cubs could only survive by devouring her spiritual power for food, and so they were listless and not lively in her belly.
When he released supernatural ability and spiritual power oppressive aura at her, it was soothing supernatural ability and spiritual power for the cubs. They suddenly ate the spiritual power feeding from their real father, so they got excited and became wildly active in her belly, which caused the cramping.
Sui Xuan Chu looked at Jiang Tea Tea, then at his uncle. He couldn’t believe it. She had actually met with his uncle behind his back?
Huang Da Zhuang and the others also looked dumbfounded. From their idol’s words, did it mean they had met many times? Met a lot of times?
What happened to sharing blessings and facing hardship together? Why had Sister Tea not told them when she met their idol? They also wanted to see their idol and get close to him.
Seeing that she didn’t speak, Chong Ming went on: “But it seems now that the supernatural ability oppressive aura I released on you before was too low, so I mistakenly thought you were immune to my supernatural ability oppressive aura.”
“Now I released a supernatural ability oppressive aura aimed at you that was many times stronger than before. You reacted, and the reaction was quite big, so I have to reevaluate you.”
He had to reevaluate her and adjust the training plan aimed at her.
For the position of Commander in Chief of the Three Armies, endurance, spiritual power, supernatural abilities, and physical body all had to surpass those of beastmen and the insectoid race.
Only with power strong enough to stand above everyone else could the soldiers below be convinced and obey her.
Jiang Tea Tea let out a light laugh: “I thought the supernatural ability oppressive aura you released on me before was already all of your supernatural ability and spiritual power, but it turns out it wasn’t.”
“You really like to hold back a little. I wasn’t prepared just now. Later, when you have time, release all of your supernatural ability oppressive aura on me and let me feel it.”
Chong Ming’s golden eyes narrowed: “If I release all my supernatural ability oppressive aura aimed only at you, you might die…”
Jiang Tea Tea cut him off, her voice full of boldness: “If I die, that just means I’m not strong enough. What are you worrying about?”
If the cubs wanted his spiritual power to soothe them, then they might as well get enough of it in one go, so nothing strange would happen later.
Chong Ming raised his brows slightly: “Fine. We’ll wait until we pick up the other two squad members and try it together.”
He ordered calmly: “Deputy Officer Ai, take them to rest first. In two hours, bring them to the Training Ground.”
Deputy Officer Ai answered and led Jiang Tea Tea and the other seven away from the warship’s entrance toward the rest rooms.
Sui Xuan Chu and Jiang Tea Tea had been here before, so nothing here made them curious. They simply followed along.
Cheng Lin Yue held Jiang Tea Tea’s arm as she walked beside her, looking left and right, her eyes full of wonder.
Huang Da Zhuang, Yan Yu, Cheng Xiao Ting, Zhang Ting Zhou, and Orange Sparrow, the five males, were like ignorant people who had fallen into a pile of money. One moment they touched the warship walls, the next they saluted the guards, and then they bombarded Deputy Officer Ai with questions.
All the way, they chirped non-stop. Everything looked new and strange to them. They wanted to ask about everything, thought everything was cool and mighty, and could link everything back to their idol Chong Ming.
After walking in the warship for more than half an hour, Deputy Officer Ai brought them to the rooms in the rest area, one room per person.
The first thing Jiang Tea Tea did after entering her room was to stir her spiritual power to block all possible surveillance systems in the room. Then she went into the bathroom and, under the cover of washing up, used her power to look at the cubs in her belly.
Lively. The cubs were too lively. After eating their real father’s supernatural ability oppressive aura, it was like they had taken some great tonic pill.
[These heartless little brats, their dragon claws all turn outward.] She worked so hard to cultivate spiritual power to feed them and absorbed the Mother Earth’s ocean nutrients to supply them, yet they were always like hungry bugs that never had enough. Now their real father had given them just a bit of supernatural ability oppressive aura, and look how happy and excited they were.
Jiang Tea Tea couldn’t stand it and slapped her belly twice. The lively cubs seemed to sense that she was angry. They instantly chickened out, stopped moving, and curled up together.
After Jiang Tea Tea finished washing up and changed into a clean Royal Military Imperial Academies Pacification Division uniform, she left the bathroom and heard a knock at the door.
She walked over and opened it. Sui Xuan Chu slipped inside like a thief and said: “Close the door, close the door, don’t let anyone see me coming to you.”
Jiang Tea Tea didn’t understand and said: “You have no secrets in front of your uncle. If others see, they see. If your uncle sees, he sees. What’s the big deal?”
Sui Xuan Chu grunted: “You don’t understand. When you should fake and cover up a bit, you still have to cover up. Image is very important.”
Jiang Tea Tea closed the door, walked to the small sitting area, sat on the little sofa, and put her legs up on the coffee table, looking bold, lazy, and casual: “Talk. Why are you here?”
Sui Xuan Chu sat opposite her, stared at her, and examined her for a long time before saying: “Roommate, tell me honestly, do you secretly like my uncle…”
“Cough, cough, cough!”
Jiang Tea Tea choked on her own saliva and started coughing hard.
Seeing this, Sui Xuan Chu felt he had touched the truth and blurted out: “Roommate, you really do secretly like my uncle. You got close to me on purpose, dragged me along to farm points, showed off your exceptional supernatural abilities and strong physical ability because you wanted to be near the water to get the moon first, catch my uncle’s attention, make him fall in love with you, marry you, and make you my aunt?”
