NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 20 - You Found an Incredible Boyfriend
Chapter 20 — You Found an Incredible Boyfriend
In the early hours, around three or four, Ling Tian came back.
Lin Yaoyao was still awake when he returned.
After all, she had learned so many difficult things today, how could she have any sleep left in her?
Lin Jiankong was still sitting there, waiting.
When Lin Yaoyao saw Ling Tian return, she immediately stood up. “You’re back? How did it go?”
As she spoke, she looked at Ling Tian from head to toe, just like a young wife caring if her husband had returned home safely …
Lin Jiankong was also curious, waiting for his answer.
“Killed it!” Ling Tian just uttered the two words.
“Killed just like that?” Lin Yaoyao looked surprised.
It hadn’t been long since Ling Tian had gone, and he solved it so easily?
Could it be that simple?
Lin Jiankong’s expression changed slightly too!
He really managed to resolve it?
So quickly?
Is he that incredible?
“Was that … one of the top ten Puppeteers?” Lin Jiankong then asked.
Ling Tian nodded.
Lin Jiankong clicked his tongue, utterly amazed.
He could actually kill one of the top-ten Puppeteers?
His true strength … must be at the top among humans!
“How powerful are the top-ten…” Lin Yaoyao continued curiously.
After all, she had no concept of the Puppeteers’ power.
Lin Jiankong smiled and then said lightly, “Let me put it this way: a force of ten thousand people with just normal firearms, in a direct battle, wouldn’t be a match for a No. 10 Puppeteer!!”
That’s how powerful the top-ten were.
Just like the one Ling Tian killed.
That Puppeteer had additional abilities, with psychic powers.
If ten thousand people shot at it simultaneously, the bullets might not even touch it before they all reversed and sent back.
So, a force of ten thousand couldn’t kill a No. 10 Puppeteer!
But … encountering Ling Tian was its bad luck.
It died quite easily, without any spectacle!
Of course, if ten thousand people had highly destructive weapons and added various factors like the environment and battle plans …
Then it might be a different story!
“So terrifying?” Lin Yaoyao was shocked. “The tenth is this powerful; how terrifying is the first?”
Lin Jiankong smiled and shook his head. “How terrifying is the first?”
“The first can summon all the same type of Puppeteers, including No. 2 to No.10.”
“So they can always have an army of Puppeteers of unknown quantity with them.”
“So, imagine how terrifying it is.”
“Looking back twenty-three years ago, there were not more than ten people worldwide who could face a No 1 Puppeteer alone.”
Of course, there were many No. 1 Puppeteers.
But the human side also had many strong individuals.
In any case, there were not more than ten people in the whole world who could handle a No. 1 Puppeteer back then.
Lin Yaoyao was first surprised, then curiously looked at Ling Tian. “How … do you compare to a No. 1 Puppeteer?”
Ling Tian didn’t answer her question.
He was, of course, one of those who could handle a No. 1 Puppeteer.
The protagonist Ye Feng was also one of them.
“I’m going to bed!” Immediately after, Ling Tian walked towards his room.
“Hey…”
Lin Yaoyao wanted to ask something more, but Ling Tian had already closed the door.
Lin Jiankong also stood up.
Now that Ling Tian had returned, he could leave.
With Ling Tian by his daughter’s side, he felt at ease!
“I’m going back. Take care!” Lin Jiankong waved and said, “You’ve found an extraordinary boyfriend. I can rest easy now!”
“No … he’s not my boyfriend!” Lin Yaoyao explained again, “He really just rents a room here!”
“Okay, okay. Anyway, it doesn’t matter who he is to you! As long as he’s willing to protect you, that’s more useful than anyone else’s protection!” Lin Jiankong didn’t want to hear Lin Yaoyao’s explanations.
In any case, the only thing that mattered was that Ling Tian could kill even the top-ten Puppeteers. That was much more powerful than his abilities. With Ling Tian around, he felt completely at ease.
“In the future … if there’s anything uncertain, remember to ask him first!” Lin Jiankong continued and then walked towards the door. “He’s a bit arrogant, but at least, as an elder, can’t he be a bit warm towards me …”
He said this while shaking his head and then walked out with a bang, closing the door.
Lin Yaoyao was left alone standing in the living room.
Lin Yaoyao’s gaze followed to Ling Tian’s room.
Speaking of which … since my dad is gone, can’t you sleep with me?
You’re not good at expressing yourself; I understand. If you’re a little proactive, I won’t refuse.
Honestly …
Lin Yaoyao thought … should I go to his room myself?
But after some thought, she felt too embarrassed!
Although they had been intimate, it had just begun, and she was still quite shy…
So … forget it!
Following that, Lin Yaoyao turned back to her room.
Sleep!
Even if she couldn’t sleep, she still had to…
But this time, she had no regrets or sadness in her heart.
Instead, she felt sweet anticipation …
Anticipation for the future …
