Super Soldier Chapter 186

Holding a bucket of popcorn and two drinks, Xiao Bing and Liu Kexin sat next to each other. The movie started after the advertis.e.m.e.nts.

The movie was about a love story between a male star and an innocent deaf girl. They didn't like each other at first and then some hilarious stories happened. Later, the star was attracted by this deaf girl's kindness and took the initiative to pursue her. However, as the deaf girl finally opened up her heart to him, the star chose to be with another woman.

The deaf girl collapsed in agony and cried silently every night until her pillowcase was soaked and her eyes were swollen.

Liu Kexin cried along with the girl, leaning on Xiao Bing's shoulder and holding his neck. She sobbed and asked Xiao Bing, “Will you do the same to me?”

Xiao Bing would normally not be affected by a love story in a movie. Whether as a member of the Dragon Teeth or the leader of the Dragon Gate, the first thing was to maintain senses. However, as Liu Kexin was crying on his shoulder, there seemed to be a string stirred in Xiao Bing's heart. He felt different.

Xiao Bing could not deny the fact that Liu Kexin was the purest girl he had ever seen, like the so-called blonde girls. When a girl like her cried on your shoulder, every man would be deeply touched.

That was exactly how Xiao Bing felt at that time. Almost involuntarily, he took Liu Kexin's face and kissed her. “No, I won't.”

They kissed each other emotionally. Liu Kexin responded in a clumsy way while shedding tears. Now the tears were of happiness because she took themselves as if they were the characters in the movie. She was fully devoted to the kiss.

It was a few minutes before they turned back to the big screen together. In the movie, after the deaf girl left the star in agony, the male star finally realized that he would never, ever find another girl like her in the world. He began to resent himself and then sacrificed everything he had to regain the girl's trust. In the end, the deaf girl finally forgave the man. These two lovers got married and all was well.

“Brother Bing, it's such a happy ending.”

“Yeah, the most precious thing in a relations.h.i.+p is sincerity. They might be a playboy and a deaf girl, but once they truly commit, they will overcome every obstacle and difficulty between them. Nothing could stop them from love, which is a typical plot in romantic stories. G.o.d has his own plan for everyone.”

Liu Kexin's eyes sparkled as she thought in her mind, “Where is my Mr. Right then?”

Thinking of the kiss with Xiao Bing, she blushed with embarra.s.sment and wanted to disappear immediately. She knew Brother Bing had a girlfriend. Liu Kexin felt complicated emotions, like shame, guilt, and depression.

Xiao Bing also thought he had stepped over the line, but he had not done it on purpose to take advantage of Liu Kexin. He could only blame the atmosphere of the movie.

Xiao Bing did not mention the kiss when they walked out of the cinema while talking about the ending of the movie. It was not until at the entrance of the cinema that Xiao Bing asked deliberately, “Kexin, now can you understand what love is?”

Liu Kexin was a bit shy. “What? What is love…”

“It's an irresistible mistake, of course. Like what we did in the cinema is the expression of love. Oh, I'm not saying you have affection for me. We were only affected by the movie. I'm only saying that you learn really fast and I'm more confident about you. We will make it this time as we pretend to be a couple.”

Liu Kexin sighed with relief and immediately asked with an excited look, “Do you mean it?”

“I swear I mean it. Now, let's move on to the next step: candlelight dinner.”

After they had a candlelight dinner, Xiao Bing drove to Liu Kexin's home with the pa.s.sionate kiss in the cinema today flowing in his head. He kicked out the thought forcedly and parked outside the Ye Family's place.

At this time, Xiao Bing's cell phone rang. He picked up the phone and answered, “h.e.l.lo, this is Xiao Bing speaking.”

“It's me.” Jiang Zihou's voice came from the phone. Though his voice was as gentle as usual, Xiao Bing could feel some sense of anger behind it. It seemed not easy to take Lord Long's life.

Xiao Bing pretended to not know the truth and asked, “Master Hou, why do you call this late? Is there any news of Lord Long? You must not let him escape from Jiang City.”

Jiang Zihou sighed and said, “I am afraid it will not go on as we like. Before getting your call, I urgently arranged all my forces and tried to take his life in Jiang City. Unfortunately, we arrived too late and he got away.”

“OK.” Although Xiao Bing had already expected this situation, he was still somewhat disappointed. After all, Lord Long's strength was too powerful. Letting him go was like setting a tiger free back to the mountains. And it was an extremely dangerous tiger. Jiang Zihou had to be far more disappointed than Xiao Bing was.

“Mr. Xiao, since you lost the battle with Lord Long, do you know how strong he is?”

Xiao Bing responded seriously, “He is powerful and invincible with the aura of energy protecting from inside to outside. He has made a comparable achievement and reached the legendary Star-strength stage.”

“The Star-strength stage?” Jiang Zihou asked curiously. “How strong is that?”

“Even the Four Heavenly Kings united as a whole would not defeat him.”

Hearing what Xiao Bing had said, Jiang Zihou fell into silence for a while and then responded, “Mr. Xiao, I understand now. Lord Long's power is within our estimation. You take care of yourself and recover from injury as soon as possible. We have to rely on each other to get through this crisis together.”

“That is for sure,” Xiao Bing said. “Though we cannot compete against him in strength, we have allies. Your intelligence network spreads throughout the entire province. We would know his situation and discuss it as soon as he moves.”

“Well, in that case, I shall not bother you any longer. If there is any news, I will share it with you.”

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Zihou turned around and looked at Miyamoto s.h.i.+nji, who stood as straight as a javelin the entire time, saying seriously, “How confident are you in defeating Lord Long in the Star-strength stage?”

Miyamoto s.h.i.+nji seemed excited. The sword in his hand automatically made a sound of screaming. Even though Master Hou had seen hundreds of precious weapons in his long experience, he had never seen a sword like this in the world. It seemed as if the sword had feelings.

Miyamoto s.h.i.+nji said in a thrilled voice, “Master Hou, I arrived in China at the age of 16 with the purpose of fighting all the martial artists to reach the legendary Immortality. It is a pity that I have never met an enemy who is powerful enough to fight.”

Jiang Zihou was astonished and asked, “Do you want to fight him?”

Miyamoto s.h.i.+nji's voice sounded solemn but excited. “If I have a chance to fight him I will. Though I shall lose my life, I will die without complaints!”

Jiang Zihou showed his appreciation but then seemed to be worried. What he appreciated was Miyamoto s.h.i.+nji's faith to win. In Jiang Zihou's view, a real strong man had the faith to seek out a counterpart who was strong enough to have a decent fight with and was fearless of death. From Miyamoto s.h.i.+nji's att.i.tude, Jiang Zihou could tell that he was absolutely an expert and full of potential. But according to what he said, he might not be Lord Long's match.

Jiang Zihou sighed with emotion. “Since even Mr. Miyamoto cannot defeat Lord Long, this man is a genius among martial artists. No wonder he could unite the major organizations within the province in such a short time. He now seems without a rival.”

Miyamoto s.h.i.+nji continued, “Most of the men I have seen are acquired masters and not innate masters in the legends. Lord Long is even at the top among the innate masters.”

Jiang Zihou asked surprisingly, “Is there any difference between innate and acquired masters?”

“Of course,” Miyamoto s.h.i.+nji said excitedly. “Those at Clear-strength, Concealing-strength, and Transforming-strength are called acquired masters, while those at Elixir-strength, Star-strength, and Void-breaking are called innate masters. Acquired masters may be strong and their numbers are countable in the whole world. In nearly every city, you can find several acquired masters. However, the innate masters are different. You cannot even find one in a country with a small population. Even though China has a population of over 1.6 billion, the number of innate masters is few. Each one is considered to be above a martial expert.

“From my knowledge, the number of people in the Star-strength stage is less than 10. And the master of the Dragon Teeth is the only one to have reached Void-breaking.”

Jiang Zihou was totally shocked at this time. He asked, “Fewer than 10 people are in the Star-strength stage? And only one beyond the Star-strength stage? So from what you've said, there is nearly no one in China that can defeat Lord Long except for the master of the Dragon Teeth?”

Miyamoto s.h.i.+nji nodded. “Yet I don't know which level of the Star-strength stage Lord Long has reached and if he is the top one. But for now, this is the case.”

“This Lord Long is surely a real dragon!” Master Hou played with his jadeite thumb ring on his finger while muttering to himself.
