Chapter 1499

Like hell I understand!

It's a completely different feeling.

It's off by a mile.

But Zhao Chi still said softly, "I understand… Tingting, I was wrong before. Now you've had your revenge too. Does that mean the misunderstanding between us is over?"

Shangguan Ting laughed and said, "Fine, since you've apologized, and I've gotten even, let's call it square."

Finally!!

Finally heard those words!

But Zhao Chi didn't feel the slightest bit of relief.

Call it square…

Can it really be called square?

Zhao Chi didn't even dare to hope for something this good.

What he was thinking now was, after he switched his attributes back, he had no idea how furious she would get again.

Should he… find a chance to kill her?

But did he have the strength for that right now?

She was a squadron leader, on the same level as Li Ruanyu, stronger than Zhao clan leader Zhao Shizhang.

Even if he could defeat an enemy with 20,000 combat power, could he defeat Shangguan Ting?

Absolutely not, right?

Unless she was alone, and then he had Gu Qing and the others gang up on her—maybe then he could take her out?

But there were too many variables, too risky.

Let's wait and see.

Let's first see what Shangguan Ting's actual attitude is, then decide…

This is really tough.

Zhao Chi thanked her: "Tingting, you're so understanding. Then let me go now."

Shangguan Ting laughed and said, "You're the first person to ever call me understanding. Do you really mean it?"

"Of course…"

"Alright, I believe you. But before I let you go, use that skill on me five more times, like what you did at the office building entrance last time."

Five strange beams of light flew out.

Shangguan Ting let out a moan and collapsed into Shopkeeper Wanyan's office chair.

"Mmm… you… go. Next time we meet, don't forget to call me by my nickname, uh…"

The hand she had been holding up finally dropped.

Both hands gripped the edge of the desk tightly.

Brows tightly furrowed, face showing pain.

Zhao Chi didn't think about anything anymore and immediately rushed out of the office.

The big door swung open with a bang, then slammed shut with another bang.

"Your captain has already agreed to let me go. Let her go!"

Zhao Chi shouted at the female lords outside.

Those female lords stared at Zhao Chi in astonishment, each one showing a surprised expression.

Wei Li even laughed and said, "You're out! The captain didn't do anything to you, did she?"

Zhao Chi didn't want to say a single word.

He went over, grabbed Su Qin, and teleported instantly.

Although according to the rules of the World-Breaking Army, teleportation was not allowed inside buildings, Zhao Chi couldn't care about anything right now—he just wanted to leave.

Wei Li and the others watched Zhao Chi and Su Qin disappear, then turned back to look at the office door.

The door was tightly shut.

One female lord asked, "Wei Li, what's the situation?"

Wei Li shook her head: "I'll go in and check. You all wait here a moment."

The door opened.

"Ugh…"

Shangguan Ting's pained voice came from inside.

The three female lords exchanged glances.

"The captain's hurt?"

"That guy could hurt the captain?"

"Quick, go in and check!"

The three of them immediately rushed inside.

Wei Li directly blocked them: "Don't go in. The captain's fine. If you go in now, she'll get angry…"

After saying that, she closed the door again.

Those three female lords exchanged glances once more.

Fortunately, not long after, the office door opened.

Shangguan Ting walked out with a dazed look in her eyes, breathing slightly: "Alright, I'm not shopping anymore today. You all go ahead."

After saying that, she walked straight over to Shopkeeper Wanyan nearby.

Wanyan stared at Shangguan Ting in astonishment: "Captain Shangguan, what's wrong? Why is your face so red? You're crying? What happened?"

"It's fine, give me those outfits. Thanks for today."

"No need for thanks. These few pieces are all yours, keep them safe."

"Mm."

The next second, Shangguan Ting also vanished on the spot.

Yin Wanyan was a little helpless: Why aren't these two people following the rules today?

Wanyan looked at Wei Li and the others. Wei Li and the rest nodded at her, then all went downstairs.

After seeing them off, Yin Wanyan returned to the office.

Nothing in the office had changed.

Only the chair had been pulled out and not pushed back in.

She walked over and put the chair back in place.

What is this?

Where did it come from?

Zhao Chi and Su Qin appeared in Taoyuan Village.

Only now did Zhao Chi let out a long breath of relief.

Su Qin only now saw Zhao Chi's face, and she couldn't help but stare blankly: "Zhao Chi, how did you get so handsome?"

Zhao Chi sighed and switched his attributes back to Intelligence.

"Sorry, I want to calm down a bit first."

Su Qin nodded: "I understand. I'll head back first then. If you need anything, come find me."

"Okay."

Su Qin vanished.

Zhao Chi also teleported to Penglai Town.

He stripped off his clothes and plunged straight into the Carefree Spring.

He certainly didn't feel humiliated — there was even a strange, inexplicable sense of satisfaction in his heart.

Saying he wasn't happy would be a lie.

That would be deceiving himself.

However, just as he had been thinking earlier, he simply didn't know what the price would be.

Zhao Chi soaked in the Carefree Spring with his eyes closed.

He felt very tired.

Tired at heart.

After a while, he smelled a familiar fragrance, followed by the sound of splashing water, and someone came to his side.
