Chapter 215

Sister Zhuge Chaoyue glared at him. "Cut the clowning. Be polite to him later!"

"Why? Give me a reason!"

"Just be polite, that's all. Otherwise I'll beat you silly!"

Just as the two were exchanging glances, this Vice General Zhao shifted his gaze over, scaring Bai Jing into snapping to attention at once.

"Comrade Bai Jing, hello. My name is Zhao Hu. Thank you for saving so many of the nation's elites, and for successfully completing the mission and bringing the secret realm back!"

Bai Jing hurriedly shook his hand. "You're too kind, General. This is the duty of every citizen of Dragon Nation!"

Zhao Long and Zhao Hu — no need to say, they must be biological brothers!

"Good, good, good. Your sense of duty is a great comfort to me!"

"As for the merits you've earned, the nation will weigh them and reward you accordingly. Just wait patiently!"

Zhao Hu suddenly leaned in and whispered, "By the way, let me tell you — I'm Chaoyue's father!"

Bai Jing sucked in a cold breath. No wonder the she-devil had threatened him to be polite.

"Um… I don't have to call you Father-in-law, do I?"

"You cheeky brat, dream on! Still, I'm quite satisfied with you. I don't mind my daughter dating you."

Bai Jing gave a thumbs-up. "Good dad of Dragon Nation!"

Zhao Hu beamed. "When it comes to being a father, I think I'm quite open-minded. As long as my daughter likes him, that's all that matters!"

"Naturally. She likes me a lot!"

Sister Zhuge Chaoyue, who had been pricking up her ears eavesdropping, was instantly covered in black lines. What a shameless bastard!

"You really dare to say that. But let me make this clear — dating is fine, but no funny business. At least until things are properly settled, no funny business!"

"Ah~ can't we get on the carriage first and buy the ticket later?"

"You dare? I'll put a bullet in you myself!"

Bai Jing pouted. If I want to get on the carriage, would I really notify you? I'm not stupid!

"Ahem~"

Sister Zhuge Chaoyue felt that if she let these two keep going, she'd have nowhere left to hide her shame!

"Alright, alright, you young people chat!"

"Doctor, this way please!"

Truly worthy of being Dragon Nation's good dad — he knew to give his daughter some space.

Once everyone else had left, Sister Zhuge Chaoyue walked up to him and stared at him fixedly.

"Why are you acting all fierce and cute?"

"If you dare say anything weird to my dad again, I'll snap you in half!"

"Huh? I barely escaped with my life and finally made it back, and this is your attitude? Does your conscience not bother you?"

Sister Zhuge Chaoyue turned her head away. "Considering you did a great deed this time, I'll forgive you!"

"What do you mean 'forgive you'? Shouldn't you be rewarding me?"

"Reward you with what? I didn't send you!"

"Reward me for keeping calm in the face of danger, reward me for turning the tide, reward me for bringing the secret realm back for the nation!"

Bai Jing pulled her to a place where no one was around.

"¨〃 What does any of that have to do with me? Go ask the nation for your reward!"

"It has everything to do with you!"

Bai Jing pinned her against the wall, his face drawing closer and closer.

"I was in such danger this time, I almost didn't make it back. Aren't you worried at all? Shouldn't you comfort my frightened little heart?"

"You… what do you think you're doing?"

"What do you think?"

"Don't do anything rash. This is a military zone. What if someone sees us?"

"Don't worry, no one will come!"

"No, I don't want to — I… you bastard, you sealed my superpowers again!"

"Wasn't I afraid you'd run?"

"I… mmph mmph~~"

Here we go again — does this bastard have to force a kiss?

This time, Bai Jing decided to take it slow!

After a long while, Sister Zhuge Chaoyue shoved him away, her entire face flushed bright red!

"Bastard, get lost right now!"

Utterly embarrassed, Sister Zhuge Chaoyue teleported away on the spot, her clothes disheveled as she fled.

Bai Jing smiled. "Although I didn't reach my expected goal, at least I've taken another small step in the conquest!"

"Little by little, the day of the home run will come!"

He didn't linger long in the military zone, letting the soldiers send him back to his off-campus rental.

"Let's tally up the gains from this trip!"

Two Ice Gems.

One Ice Pearl.

One Heart of Ice and Snow.

One Bai Yin Secret Treasure.

One Ice Slate.

There were also a few skill discs and over a dozen evolution stones.

This haul was quite a good one, the biggest prize being the Ice Stone Plate.

"Gems and pearls are useless to me — want to take them and auction them off?"

"Forget it, forget it, I'm not short on money right now, better just keep them!"

"The Bai Yin secret treasure should be kept too, wait until there's a suitable Pokémon to use it on."

"The Ice Stone Plate and the Snow Heart can be carried by Dragonite though."

"Although the effect can't compare to a legendary stone plate, Dragonite can carry it all the time, and gaining extra experience is good too!"

Strictly speaking, Dragonite's primary type is Water, so carrying the Ice Stone Plate is a bit of a waste.
