Chapter 346 - Wei Wei Conquered The Hidden Army
Old Master Hei’s hand froze, holding a teacup. He was completely agitated but could only let out a sigh, “Girl, it must be hard on you all these years.”
“It takes 10 years of sharpening to create a perfect sword.” Helian Wei Wei took a sip of tea and spoke softly, “Sometimes one can only wake up after suffering from hardships. ”
She had been slapped countless times in this life.
In modern times, the disdain of her stepmother always resulted in her being beaten up unreasonably.
No one ever wanted to give her red dates to eat…
No one ever wanted to hear her talk about her sufferings.
She liked hiding in the closet to sleep at that time because she felt that it was the safest place.
She knew better than anyone that in this world, she could only rely on herself to build her own empire.
It was still the same even now.
She would seek revenge on anyone she despised.
She would not complain about those who did not offer to help.
There was no such law that dictated someone should help.
Old Master Hei looked into her resilient eyes and decided, “I will take you to the barracks now.”
He might not have readily accepted Helian Wei Wei when she lamented about her prolonged suffering, despite knowing her countless achievements.
However, the girl standing in front of Old Master Hei was neither impatient nor agitated, but amicable and level-headed. Yet, she possessed a unique stubbornness.
He felt really pitiful for such a child.
After all, he heard about the rumors and gossip traveling around the Capital in recent years.
When he heard that his unfilial grandson became close to her, he was both happy and worried.
He had expected everyone else to assume that he detested Wei Wei’s attitude.
Indeed, he detested her behavior. However, the feeling stemmed from his earnest wish for her to improve and become a better individual, yet she was lackadaisical.
The thought of making his unfilial grandson marry Wei Wei had also crossed his mind. He could at least protect her well if she married into the Hei family.
However, her grandfather had mentioned on his death bed that he wanted to see his only granddaughter turning into a useful person.
Hence, despite his multiple attempts to secretly care for her, he should not be overprotective.
Now, it was all worth it.
After he finished talking, Old Master Hei brought Helian Wei Wei to the mountain at the back.
Traveling through the thick night mist, she had no clue how Old Master Hei led them there.
Then, an extremely hidden valley appeared in front of Helian Wei Wei.
All the animals that passed through the valley entrance would flee instantly, frightened by the cold murderous aura inside.
However, it was the sound of an army drill that faintly echoed from within the mountain valley now.
This was the secret base of the Helian family’s hidden army.
“No wonder everyone can’t find the hidden army. They were actually hiding in here.” Helian Wei Wei stared at the entrance of the valley her brow raised in satisfaction. It was indeed a good location.
Unexpectedly, just as she finished speaking, a metallic clang sounded and a hidden voice declared, ” “Stop at once, our base is off limits! Unrelated people should leave quickly or you will be killed.”
“It’s me. I brought the descendant of Old General Helian here.” Old Master Hei stood with his hands behind his back, wearing an impassive expression. However, his voice rang with commanding authority.
The soldier who was guarding the entrance of the valley immediately showed himself and knelt down on the ground when he heard Old Master Hei’s voice.
“Get up.” Old Master Hei moved forward, leading them in.
The soldier replied, “Yes.”
He trailed behind the Old Master Hei respectfully, but the eyes were tinged with contempt when they saw Helian Wei Wei.
Helian Wei Wei ignored the guard’s stare and continued heading into the valley.
“Woman, this soldier hates you.” Yuan Ming’s voice sounded evil as usual.
Malicious vileness tainted Helian Wei Wei’s delicate lips as she gave a slight smile.
It was a bustling view, everyone was busy practicing when they entered the valley. Clad tightly in plain outfits, legions of strong men were practicing stances and training, whether solo, in duos or in a group.
Old Master Hei said something to one of his young generals.
The young general was dressed in a kempt military uniform which was completely wrinkle-free. He had black hair and a handsome face, albeit expressionless. Besides, his skin was a sexy bronze color, his lips were delicate and the tip of his nose was sharp. His dark eyes were like crystals, clear and glistering.
After hearing Old Master Hei’s words, he seemed to glance at Helian Wei Wei.
However, his scrutinizing eyes were beautiful and stunning.
“Who would have thought that there is an exceedingly handsome person hidden among these vicious soldiers who spent most of their time in battles,” Yuan Ming said.
Helian Wei Wei wrapped her arms around her chest and smiled faintly, “Why? Do you like him?”
“I like men!” Yuan Ming blurted out in a hurry!
Helian Wei Wei replied, “You finally admitted it.”
“Wait, wait a moment, I was wrong,” he was anxiously trying to explain.
Helian Wei Wei immediately cut off communication with her consciousness.
Yuan Ming could only scratch against the wall in the Fantasy Space.
Whitey took a glance at him with mocking eyes.
Two people were talking in the distance.
Actually, rather than a conversation, it was mostly just Old Master Hei talking.
The young general neither uttered a word the entire time, nor did he look at Helian Wei Wei again.
Helian Wei Wei naturally knew what this meant as she used to be a secret agent.
Firstly, he did not like her.
Secondly, he played a key role in deciding whether she could acquire the hidden army.
Thirdly, this man was a germaphobe like His Highnesses. His completely unstained military uniform was a clear sign.
Fourthly, he was very unapproachable.
However, Helian Wei Wei did not understand why he looked at her with such gazes, seemingly overflowing with mixed emotions.
Did they know each other before?
Helian Wei Wei had not solved the mystery when she heard a sneer, “Trash like you has no right to be here. Quickly leave and go find someone to marry. Then, you can hand over the child you give birth to for us to raise. Only then, we can finally restore the lost dignity of the Helian family.”
The person who spoke was standing beside the young general. He was nearly two meters tall and extremely brawny with big, bulging muscles, exuding a strong sense of oppression. His rectangular face was obviously burning with anger.
“Captain Da Xiong is right. We would rather you send us your child instead of you coming here!”
“You only know how to rely on His Highness Murong. Do you even know how many of us have been killed? You are not someone worthy for us to sacrifice our lives for!”
“Get out of here, you are not welcomed here! ”
An uproar of resentful insults and rejection began to rise.
Helian Wei Wei stood up and glanced at Da Xiong standing before her, then at the other soldiers. However, she was not offended.
She could understand how disappointed these people were. They trained so hard, only to discover their future leader was merely a fool that followed a man like his shadow.
However… “We have to fight it out to really find out if I’m truly trash, or if I’m worthy of your lives, right?”
