Chapter 1232: Chapter 1232: A Wise Choice
"Yes, I’m Ye Luo, but how did you know about me?"
"I, of course, knew about you. When I was studying in Huaxia, I heard about you. I didn’t pay much attention at the time, just heard from a classmate that you were exceptionally skilled in medicine and also quite formidable in fights! Later, after I was kidnapped by those in black, I heard them mention you several times."
Zhao Yirou spoke with some excitement, as if she had met an idol she adored.
However, Ye Luo picked up some useful information from Zhao Yirou’s words.
"Hold on, you said you were kidnapped by people in black and overheard their conversations? Could it be that you’ve been to the headquarters of Corpse King Palace?"
Corpse King Palace headquarters? Zhao Yirou didn’t know about these things; she’s just an ordinary girl. How could she possibly know so much information?
But Zhao Yirou was very clever, so from the tone of Ye Luo’s words, she figured out that the people in black were from Corpse King Palace!
"Are you saying all these people in black are from Corpse King Palace? I don’t know if the place I went to was their headquarters, but where I was taken, there were at least hundreds of girls just like me imprisoned. Those in black were conducting some kind of experiment on them. I heard from them that if the experiment was successful, we could become ’seeds’! Of course, if the experiment failed, then we were destined to die!"
A laboratory? Corpse King Palace’s seed cultivation laboratory?
Regardless of whether the place Zhao Yirou went to was the actual headquarters of Corpse King Palace, one thing Ye Luo could be sure of was that the place was extremely important to Corpse King Palace.
It seemed that Zhao Yirou was rather fortunate. You see, it took over a decade for Shi Yu to be cultivated into a ’seed’ by Corpse King Palace, and after waking up, Shi Yu had no recollection of those years; essentially, Shi Yu had lost over a decade of memories.
Yet, Zhao Yirou had become a ’seed’ in just over a month!
It was unclear whether this was due to Zhao Yirou’s physical constitution or if Corpse King Palace’s seed cultivation techniques had matured.
Zhao Yirou was the first person Ye Luo had encountered who truly knew something about Corpse King Palace since he started encountering its members!
"Quick, tell me everything you know about Corpse King Palace. I need all the information I can get because I must destroy this evil organization!" Ye Luo urged Zhao Yirou impatiently.
Finally, he could find some clues about Corpse King Palace, which naturally made Ye Luo very excited.
Zhao Yirou looked at Ye Luo and, without hesitation, began to tell her story.
After all, Corpse King Palace had wiped out her entire family, and Zhao Yirou harbored a deep-seated hatred for them. Having heard of Ye Luo back when she was in Huaxia, she naturally trusted him deeply.
As Zhao Yirou narrated, Ye Luo gained some understanding of Corpse King Palace’s laboratory. Although Zhao Yirou couldn’t pinpoint its exact location, she had a rough idea, which was immensely helpful for Ye Luo.
"Alright, I understand. Don’t worry, I will avenge you. What are you planning to do now?"
Actually, having Zhao Yirou stay by his side under the current circumstances wasn’t the wisest choice because, according to Zhao Yirou, Corpse King Palace deemed her as an essential ’seed’ they must possess. Her codename was the ’new No. 1 seed’!
Every individual considered as a ’seed’ by Corpse King Palace was assigned a number, and only Zhao Yirou had the character for ’new’ because she was cultivated with a new method specifically for breeding seeds!
Zhao Yirou’s importance was evident.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Luo still decided against sending Zhao Yirou away, for once Zhao Yirou left his side, the danger she’d face would significantly increase—she was far too important to Corpse King Palace.
"Here’s the deal, stay with me for now, and once I’ve destroyed Corpse King Palace, then you can leave. How does that sound?"
This was indeed what Ye Luo intended, but in Zhao Yirou’s ears, it somehow took on a different meaning!
Ye Luo looked at Zhao Yirou with curiosity as a sudden flush rose on her face, yet he hadn’t figured out what was happening.
But Ye Luo had no time to bother with that, having obtained temporary new clues about the Corpse King Palace from Zhao Yirou, he didn’t hesitate to prepare to return to Huaxia.
Since this place was a trap targeted at Ye Luo, and with Zhao Yirou also rescued by Ye Luo, his departure would only relieve the pressure here!
Upon returning to the camp, Ye Luo immediately told Fei Ying about his decision, trusting him as he did.
However, the people from India were not pleased.
"General Ye, you cannot leave!"
Manisha stopped in front of Ye Luo and said.
Ye Luo was slightly taken aback, "What do you mean? Why can’t I leave?"
"Please forgive us, General Ye, our General said that you are the strongest among us. To eradicate those zombies, we need you to take action, otherwise our losses will be very heavy."
"So what? If you suffer heavy losses, what’s that to me?"
Ye Luo glanced at Manisha with disdain and asked.
Ye Luo wasn’t foolish. Since he already knew there was an issue on India’s side, the fact that they immediately tried to stop him when he mentioned leaving suggested that their intent wasn’t solely based on valuing Ye Luo’s strength but, perhaps, their main goal was to push Ye Luo into a trap!
Did they really think Ye Luo was brainless?
Such an obvious trap and they still expected Ye Luo to fall into it.
"General Ye, you can’t do this. After all, this eradication was a mutual agreement between both sides."
Manisha was somewhat anxious, looking at the resolute Ye Luo, she didn’t know how to persuade him.
Actually, Manisha also found it strange why the General had ordered them to keep Ye Luo and even tried every possible way to get him on the front line.
Manisha was just a communications soldier in charge of liaison, she didn’t know much, and she was only following orders.
Ye Luo obviously knew this point and even understood why India had assigned Manisha as the liaison officer!
Was it just because Manisha was a beauty?
Did these people really think Ye Luo was so lustful?
Thinking that just any beauty could bewitch Ye Luo?
Ye Luo didn’t want to explain too much to Manisha, after all, she really knew nothing and was merely following orders.
"Let’s go, we’re getting in the car!"
Ye Luo directly took Manisha, boarded a jeep prepared by Fei Ying for him, and without further discussion, headed forward!
Seeing Ye Luo leave, Manisha could only contact her superiors, feeling helpless.
