It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future (WN)

Chapter 1200 Zuojing wormhole!

“What’s wrong?” Li Shiyu felt nervous when he saw Ling Lan’s weird expression.

“Nothing.” Ling Lan glanced at Li Shiyu. She couldn’t tell him that this was all a misunderstanding.

She didn’t want to embarass Li Shiyu so she could only reprimand Little White.

“These are all Li Shiyu’s treasures.” Ling Lan tapped Little White’s fat head forcefully. “You’re lucky that he only poked you with needles. If you really angered him, he might have used you for his experiments.”

Ling Lan purposely turned to look at one side of Li Shiyu’s laboratory that was filled with wilted and yellowish plants. “Just like those plants over there. You don’t want to be like those plants, right?”

Little White immediately calmed its burning rage for needles down. However, as Ling Lan continued to talk about the poor fate of those plants, its body tensed up in fear. It remembered that it often came to this laboratory when it stayed with Li Lanfeng. It would always see Li Shiyu looking menacingly at the plants and torturing the plants with all kinds of equipment. In the end, the plants all died a horrible death-being dehydrated until crumbling apart to dust. There wasn’t even a corpse left. It was frightening!

Little White was so frightened by its thoughts that it jumped into Ling Lan’s arms and buried its head in her chest. Its tentacles were trembling furiously. It had totally forgotten how powerful it was when it attacked Li Shiyu with its spiritual power just now.

Ling Lan sighed as she looked at the naive Little White. What kind of pet did she raise? It wasn’t befitting of her domineering image.

Little White looked really pitiful so Ling Lan decided to console it. She lifted a finger and started scratching Little White’s body. Little White immediately stopped trembling in fear. After some time, it laid down voluntarily and hummed happily. “This is so comfortable. Master, over here. I want more…”

It had totally forgotten how frightened it was just now. As expected of a stupid pet.

After resolving Li Shiyu’s problem, Ling Lan brought Little White back to the meeting room and continued the discussion with everyone.

While they were discussing, a huge army had secretly arrived near the abandoned Zuojing dimensional wormhole.

“General, the condition of the wormhole is unstable. Due to the explosion of Planet Zuojing, the wormhole had turned unstable, causing explosions to be quite frequent in the area which also caused turbulence in the wormhole. Even if we don’t encounter any strong turbulence, it would be hard for us to pass through this wormhole without endangering the lives of soldiers.” He Xuyang told Ling Xiao the report of the condition on Planet Zuojing.

Ling Xiao frowned. “I didn’t expect it to be this bad.”

This abandoned wormhole was a very important factor in his overall plan. As long as they could get past the wormhole successfully, they would be able to reach the center of the Twilight Empire. Even if they were discovered, he would still be able to use his raw strength to defeat his opponents as long as Qi Yaoyang was able to hold back one god-class operator. If all went according to plan, he would be able to attack the capital planet of Twilight.

“Shall we find another way?” He Xuyang suggested although he knew that wasn’t a viable option.

Ling Xiao didn’t reply to him. He pondered for a while before suddenly looking up and said, “Prepare my mecha. I want to enter the wormhole using [Belief].”

He wouldn’t be able to make a decision until he personally saw the condition of the wormhole. He truly wished to defeat Twilight, but he wouldn’t needlessly endanger his soldiers’ lives.

He Xuyang had been following Ling Xiao for many years, so he knew that once Ling Xiao made a decision, no one could make him change it. Hence, he nodded and said, “I’ll make the arrangements immediately.”

Moreover, he knew that the protective shield of a god-class mecha was strong enough to protect his general, so he had no reason to stop Ling Xiao from doing so.

Soon, the entire 23rd division was aware that their general was going to operate (Belief) to inspect the wormhole ahead. Everyone who was free tried to squeeze beside the windows of the starship just to get a good look of the god-class mecha, [Belief].

Although General Ling Xiao was the general of the 23rd division, his god-class mecha was rarely ever seen. Even at this moment, the god-class mecha was kept in a secret compartment of the mecha hold. Only designated logisticians were able to enter the compartment to perform maintenance on the mecha. No one else could get near it.

While everyone was shoving and pushing their comrades to get a good look, the sound of engines revving was heard and a flash of bright light shone passed them. Then… nothing happened.

“Where is (Belief]?” The soldiers in front of the windows were stunned. What did they just see? Where was (Belief]?

“It has already entered the wormhole.” A few ace operators shrugged and sighed in pity.

Their eyesight was a few times better than a normal soldier, but even they could only manage to catch a glimpse of the lingering shadows of a god-class mecha. As expected of a god-class mecha. The speed… it hadn’t even activated its Divine Wind system. If its Divine Wind system was activated, they probably wouldn’t even be that flash of light.

Of course, this was an exaggeration. There would still be traces left behind but those with poor eyesight wouldn’t be able to catch it.

“Who can fight with this speed?” Many soldiers were in awe.

“That’s why only god-class operators can fight with god-class operators,” the ace mecha masters replied to the shocked crowd. If they met an imperial operator, they might be able to defeat him with overwhelming numbers but if their opponent was a god-class operator… no matter how many ace mecha masters there were, they would die. One attack from a god-class operator was enough to pulverize an entire mecha clan.

Divine Punishment was too frightening.

Ling Xiao controlled (Belief) and entered the Zuojing wormhole. Before he could see what was going on, he felt a powerful force sucking him in.

“General, the force is 1237N.” (Belief] immediately reported the strength of the suction force.

“Continue flying in to gather more data,” Ling Xiao ordered.

“Yes, (Belief) understands.” (Belief] slowly moved forward and gathered data of its surroundings.

Ling Xiao looked at the wormhole that was filled with ruins and meteorites. He couldn’t help but remember what happened that year.

The destruction of Planet Zuojing and the entire Zuojing wormhole was caused by him.

The first mission he chose when he advanced to a god-class operator was the destruction of Planet Zuojing. Because of this dumb act he made in the past, he would forever be at loggerheads with the Twilight Empire.

Thinking about it, this was probably the reason why the Twilight Empire kept wanting to kill him.

“I was too naive in the past,” Ling Xiao mocked himself.

He thought that he had hid his identity well but he didn’t expect a spy to exist among the higher authorities of the Federation. Somehow, this spy knew of his mission.

Luckily, he acted quickly. If not, he might have been killed by the Twilight Empire while he was carrying out his mission.
