Wang Wei and Wu Hong stood opposite each other, with only a few inches separating them. "Why are you looking at me like a lost puppy who doesn't want to be separated from his owner?" she asked.
"I'm going to miss you. Is that so wrong?" Wang Wei asked.
"It's only a few yuan epochs."
"Can't you just say you'll miss me too?"
"I'm going to miss you too — happy?" she asked.
"Of course," Wang Wei smiled as he looked at that beautiful woman before him. The love in his eyes has deepened immensely. During this training, he made a ridiculous amount of improvement, but was it really due to his talent? He knew that was not it. Although it played a part, it was not the primary cause of his success.
The woman before him is why he's currently so strong and considered 'perfect' regarding Battle IQ. Wu Hong did not hesitate to feed her all her knowledge and experience, like a mother bird feeding a baby bird through their beaks. Only because of her selfless teaching did he become so intense, allowing him to fight on par with her.
Of course, Wang Wei was not cocky enough to think he had caught up with. In terms of experience, he was mild away from her. He knew that if they were in a battle of life and death, even in the same realm, he would not survive more than a day. She would mercilessly slaughter him, and everything he learned in this training would only prolong the inevitable.
"Alright, there is no need to keep lingering," Wu Hong said, preparing to leave. freewёbnoνel.com
"Before you leave, I want to ask something. What exactly are we?" Wang Wei wanted to know the answer. If you say they are friends, he would disagree, given how close they've become during this training. However, they were not lovers either. Although he's seen her body during their training when their clothes were destroyed, the most intimate gesture they've made was holding hands and a kiss on the cheek after he won a bet.
Wu Hong did not immediately answer this question but instead started arranging his hair. "There is no need to define our relationship. We have plenty of time to figure it out." Wang Wei glanced at her strangely. Back on Earth, he often used a VPN to browse through other countries' internet, social media, and so on, and he once read an article about something called a "situationship." Unfortunately, that word might be the best way to describe their relationship.
"Alright, I'm leaving," she said before kissing him on the cheeks. "You can access this place as you wish. If you're in trouble, just come here and activate the formations. Even if all seven of them work together, they can't break my array.
"So, take care of yourself and don't die."
After saying those words, she did not wait for his response and flew away. Wang Wei suddenly yelled: "If I did, I mean, true death, will you do everything possible to revive me?"
"Don't die, and you won't have to find out."
"Yeah, she'll definitely revive me," Wang Wei muttered with a smirk. Then, he sighed: "I hope she's alright." Although he was 99% sure there were no problems with her entering the Dark Truth, the remaining 1% of uncertainty still nagged him.
He knew there was no point in worrying, so he focused on his own affairs. Although the world was peaceful, everyone could feel this was the calm before the storm. Wang Wei did not know how much time he had, but he knew it was not much, so he needed to hurry. He needed to accomplish a few things before the significant change in the world occurred. Otherwise, he'll be grossly unprepared for the upcoming chaos.
Wang Wei's first destination was the clone in charge of planning the downfall of the remaining moons.
"How are things going?" Wang Wei asked the clone.
"Good," the clone responded. "I've created character models for all the remaining moons, and based on their personality, history, and mindset, I've devised a few plans to eliminate them. However, I'm not satisfied with the probability of success yet."
"What numbers are you working with?"
