Chapter 140 - I Will Make Sure They Regret What They Did
A glint could be seen in Ming Yueyao’s eyes. She, too, was shocked. If it had not been for the assault by the Song Clan, she would have had no idea that Lu Xuan had a National Guardian level subordinate serving him.
It seemed that National Guardian level cultivators were no longer the top-of-the-line fighters, but nonetheless, she and the abbot of the Southern Shaolin Temple had been the only two National Guardians found throughout the entirety of Min Province before the incident.
While the number of National Guardians was not as low as that of Deities at present, they were still considered a pinnacle fighting force at the provincial level.
Such beings would even be considered national level fighters in some small countries overseas.
Despite not being the most powerful force around, National Guardians were still, without doubt, the best to be found on a regional level. Those cultivators were easily capable of making a name for themselves, and it would be easy for them to sit alongside presidents of some smaller countries out there. If they were to join the Special Task Force, their capabilities could have made them Chiefs at provincial levels.
Yet one such person was actually willing to serve as Lu Xuan’s subordinate and watch over his home for him.
She was utterly astonished by the abilities that Lu Xuan displayed. To begin with, there was no way she would be willing to watch over a place as a security guard. That was something she saw as belittling to someone of her caliber.
They had basically been sealed within the Special Task Force’s vaults since they were found. Few knew about the pillars to begin with; even a higher-up in the agency like herself had only come to know that such items were locked in the vaults by chance.
The very fact of Lu Xuan demanding the pillars meant that it was entirely possible that he knew the secrets of those four pillars. That made her twitch a bit, but she came to her senses soon enough. Lu Xuan was the one that held the key to the pillars’ secrets. No one would be able to make him divulge said secrets if he didn’t want to do so.
Then again, given how the pillars were simply sitting around and collecting dust in their vaults, she believed that the big boss would not refuse such a request.
