Cultivation Online novel Chapter 2635

Chapter 2635: Verdict(2)

"Unbelievable..." Mei Feng was at a loss for words after learning of Yuan’s situation through the Ironwoman.

"And I mean both you and Corporal Yuan."

"Can you really blame me? I already told you that dragging him back by force would’ve been nearly impossible without killing him."

"You know, I’m having a hard time believing that someone who only recently joined the military could give you this much trouble..." Mei Feng muttered.

She paused before adding, "No, forget the military. If you knew what his cultivation was just a year ago, you wouldn’t believe it either."

"What are you talking about?" the Ironwoman asked, raising an eyebrow as curiosity flickered in her eyes.

Mei Feng pondered for a moment whether she should really tell her this.

"That man... his cultivation was only at the First Ascension a year ago when I met him."

"Wh-What did you just say...?"

The Ironwoman’s eyes immediately widened, looking like she’d just seen a ghost.

Mei Feng chuckled at the Ironwoman’s reaction, as it was the first time she’d seen her look so surprised.

’I cannot even begin to imagine how she’d react if she knew that he also possessed the Perfected Heavenly Refinement physique...’ Mei Feng thought to herself, but she had no intention of revealing this secret.

"I have so many questions..." the Ironwoman spoke after a long moment of silence.

However, Mei Feng shook her head and said, "Keep them to yourself because I won’t be able to answer them."

The Ironwoman sighed before responding, "Anyways, what are you going to do now that he’s alive?"

"..."

Mei Feng closed her eyes to ponder for several minutes before speaking again, "I will continue to act like he’s dead until he actually returns to the city safe and sound. As for the verdict, there will be no change—at least until Corporal Yuan returns to testify against them. As for what comes after that... we can only wait and see."

"Alright." The Ironwoman nodded before retrieving a cube-shaped object and casually tossing it into Mei Feng’s grasp.

"Give it to him when he returns," said the Ironwoman as she turned around and started leaving.

"If he doesn’t return, his blood will be on your hands," Mei Feng said in a low voice.

Without stopping, the Ironwoman reached for the door.

"I know," she responded before leaving the room.

Mei Feng sat back in her chair and released a deep sigh.

"That brat..."

She looked at the storage cube in her grasp before taking a peek inside.

"So many Unknown Ores!"

Mei Feng’s eyes widened with surprise to see its storage filled to the brim with Unknown Ores, wondering why the Ironwoman wanted to give them to Yuan.

’Did she gather these while looking for him...? There’s no way, right?’

As far as Mei Feng knew, the Ironwoman never bothered to collect Unknown Ores herself, considering it a waste of her time and effort. She typically left such menial tasks to her squad members, so seeing her return with so many was rather unusual.

Some time later, Mei Feng left to give her final verdict on the Scorpion Squad—but not before calling someone to have her desk replaced.
