Chapter 963

He still remembered!

Thinking of this, Sovereign Jiazi felt a slight surge of emotion.

"Then what about now?"

"The situation has changed; that was my oversight!" Su Yang said after a pause. "But I'll do my best to think of a way for you, and strive to at least give you your freedom. Your talent would be a shame to waste!"

Sovereign Jiazi said with heartfelt gratitude, "Thank you!"

"There's nothing to thank me for. I promised you, so I'll give it my all!" Su Yang's tone shifted. "But if it really works out, I still hope you won't betray me. Otherwise, I'll hunt you down to the ends of the earth, and not a single one of your subordinates or family will be left alive!"

Sovereign Jiazi suddenly felt as if her emotions had been in vain.

Still, in her impression, Su Yang had always been exactly this kind of person.

Sovereign Jiazi spoke up: "I do have one idea. Your side might just agree to it, but I'll need your help!"

"Tell me about it. As long as it doesn't harm the Federation's interests, I should be able to agree. I did say I'd help you!"

"Let me stay by your side!"

"Hmm?"

Su Yang looked up at Sovereign Jiazi, never expecting her to have such an idea.

"Of everyone I know in the entire Huaxia Federation, now and in the future, the only one who can reliably keep a step ahead of me is you!" Sovereign Jiazi said seriously. "If you were to monitor me, the high-ranking officials of your Huaxia Federation would most likely agree—after all, they should respect your opinion too."

"Uh…"

Su Yang hesitated.

Keeping Sovereign Jiazi by his side sounded like a lot of trouble.

"What, is there a problem?"

Sovereign Jiazi saw Su Yang's hesitation, and her heart rose with it.

If it were an ordinary man, he would probably have agreed on the spot, giving her at most a vague, half-hearted opening.

After all, Sovereign Jiazi had absolute confidence in her own appearance.

The number of young, normal men who could stay composed in front of her was extremely small.

And yet, Su Yang happened to be one of that rare few!

"Su Yang, my strength and ability are both not bad. If you keep me by your side, I'll handle things well for you!" Sovereign Jiazi said softly. "If I really get locked up, I might as well be finished!"

This was no joke.

For a gifted beast-tamer like Sovereign Jiazi, a talent blessed by the heavens who had risen to prominence young, the one thing she truly could not endure was being locked up.

Sovereign Jiazi had already thought it through. Given her identity and circumstances, attaching herself to Su Yang was the best choice.

Within three years at most, Su Yang would absolutely hold a position of great importance in the Huaxia Federation.

As long as Su Yang was satisfied with her, she, along with her family and subordinates, would surely live well in the Huaxia Federation.

Besides, getting along with one person was far simpler and easier than sparring with a whole group.

Su Yang thought it over, and finally replied: "Alright! I'll put in the request with the General Military Department!"

"Thank you!"

She hadn't expected Su Yang to agree so easily.

In fact, she had made some other preparations as well…

Sovereign Jiazi stood up and bowed deeply to Su Yang.

But just as she was halfway through her bow, she found her entire body had gone rigid.

It was as if an invisible force had lifted her up.

Su Yang said softly, "Don't go bowing at the drop of a hat. I can't stand that!"

"Mm!"

"I also don't want to see you locked up, wasting your great talent!" Su Yang said gently. "I went through all that trouble to bring you back from the Island Nation precisely because I admire your talent."

Sovereign Jiazi couldn't help feeling that when Su Yang spoke like this, he sounded like an old senior!

Still, it felt very pleasant to hear!

To be honest, she too felt her own talent was quite impressive, even if it couldn't compare to Su Yang's.

The next day, members of the Southeast Military Department's interrogation team called Sovereign Jiazi over again and asked her a few questions they hadn't thought of previously.

On the third day, Su Yang brought back the members of the Southeast Military Department who had gone to Nangang City to interrogate the others from the Island Nation investigation.

And Su Yang's battle record was also laid out clearly on Qian Hailong's desk.

Even with ample mental preparation, Qian Hailong was still struck with shock.

Single-handedly defeating an entire nation, forcing a country to surrender and hand over its sovereign as a hostage—such a thing was absolutely unheard of in the history of the Huaxia Federation.

Over twenty King-Rank powerhouses of the Island Nation, along with thousands of elite beast-tamer troops, were utterly annihilated!

Such a terrifying battle record was also unique in the history of the Huaxia Federation since the Great Catastrophe!

The high-ranking officials of the Southeast Military Department gathered once more. When they saw this battle record file, their faces were filled with astonishment.

"Old Qian? Is it confirmed?"

"It's been confirmed!" Qian Hailong nodded. "The investigation team went to interrogate them in person. The answers from the thousands on the Island Nation side match exactly with what Su Yang and Sovereign Jiazi said!"

"Back then in Nangang City, Su Yang single-handedly held off an entire nation, killing more than ten King-Rank beast-tamers of the Island Nation in one battle. Many military beast-tamers witnessed it firsthand!"

The entire meeting room fell deathly silent.

One high-ranking official questioned: "How is that possible? Isn't Su Yang a Star Brilliance-Rank beast-tamer?"

"No! Your intel is already outdated!" Qian Hailong shook his head. "Su Yang is now a King-Rank High-Grade beast-tamer!"

"How is that possible?"

"Isn't this talent far too heaven-defying?"

"He's simply not human!"

"…"

In the conference room, only the sound of sharp intakes of breath could be heard.

Su Yang's advancement speed was simply too fast!

Qian Qian Hailong watched the senior officials in silence, enjoying their stunned expressions.

This proved that not only he lacked sufficient Qi cultivation!

Not only he enjoyed "overreacting"!

After Dengzhe Gang had somewhat quieted down, Qian Qian Hailong spoke calmly: "Alright, settle down. Don't overreact. You're all veterans—don't act like youths shouting in awe, as if you've never seen the world!"
