When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.

Chapter 369 Winning the wife doesn't mean losing the army

Seeing the light bursting forth from the gaps in the metal gauntlet, Mu Yaoguang's gaze swept across the room, her thoughts racing.

Her eyes met Ekaterina's, and for a moment it was as if an invisible lightning bolt struck, causing Bai Ze and Luo Shui to feel their hearts tremble and their consciousness waver.

"Humph."

Ekaterina gave a soft hum, her body swayed, and her eyes blazed with golden light.

Mu Yaoguang remained unmoved, her eyes like autumn water, undisturbed by any ripples.

The confrontation between the two sides was decided in an instant, with Mu Yaoguang clearly gaining the upper hand.

However, Ekaterina only swayed slightly, proving that she still had the ability to fight back despite her defeat.

“So that’s how it is. You’ve already freed the Hand of God,” Mu Yaoguang’s gaze fell on Ekaterina’s hand. “It was called a seal, but it was actually a cover-up.”

The metal gauntlet had not completely disintegrated, only showing several cracks, but the aura emanating from it made Bai Ze feel an extremely strong sense of crisis.

Catherine's Hand of God had already broken the seal long ago; the metal gauntlet was actually concealing the Hand of God's aura.

'This is absolutely insidious,' Bai Ze thought to himself.

His mental strength has now fully recovered and he is at his peak. Catherine couldn't defeat Bai Ze when his mental strength was severely depleted before, so it should be even less likely now.

But if Ekaterina had used the Hand of God, the outcome might have been different.

The Hand of God can fully enhance one's power, whether it be physical strength, mental strength, or even willpower, because it symbolizes victory.

They're already using cheats, and they're still resorting to underhanded tactics. That's just unbelievable.

What? I have a cheat code too? Never mind then.

The Hand of God can create a wall of faith to resist external thoughts and spiritual magic, but Bai Ze can directly cross the wall of faith with his words becoming law. If they really fight, it's hard to say who is scheming against whom.

However, if Bai Ze truly believed that Ekaterina was love-struck and failed to use his "words become law" ability in time, he might actually have lost to her.

This also shows that Ekaterina truly deserves to be called the Holy Maiden of Ursus; she still has a tough style in her bones.

The honey trap used to test the cadres was just a side effect; the real intention was to beat Bai Ze to his knees and capture him to be a star slave.

“That’s right, I unsealed the Hand of God long ago.”

Now that it's been exposed, Ekaterina doesn't try to hide anything and tells the truth directly. At the same time, she looks at Bai Ze and says, "Thanks to you, my control over the Hand of God has deepened, and I can use it at will for a short period of time."

Those burning eyes were filled with competitiveness and a determination to win.

The battle between Bai Ze and Ekaterina brought her many benefits. The struggle of the God's Hand when it was sealed by Bai Ze deepened its connection with Ekaterina. Moreover, through this spiritual confrontation, Ekaterina also gained a lot in terms of mindset and spirit.

All of these factors led to a breakthrough in her strength and a further deepening of her control over the Hand of God.

Unfortunately, even so, he still couldn't beat Mu Yaoguang.

"There are so many heroes in this world,"

Mu Yaoguang also praised Ekaterina's talent and strength, saying, "If you had been born ten years earlier, I might not have been able to beat you so easily."

The implication is that if Ekaterina trains for another ten years, she will be qualified to compete with Mu Yaoguang in her current state.

What sounded like praise actually carried a strong sense of sarcasm.

The number one genius of Dongxia is indeed impressive; even his sarcasm is no less impressive.

Ekaterina's Dongxia language was definitely up to standard, and she understood the meaning behind Mu Yaoguang's words. The golden light in her eyes faded, and she slowly closed her metal gauntlets, concealing the holy light, while saying calmly, "I don't need ten years. When I reach the eighth star, I will be able to defeat you."

“Then let’s wait until you reach the eighth level,” Mu Yaoguang said calmly, standing up and gesturing for him to leave. “As for now, the deal is done. I still need to pass on the cultivation technique to Bai Ze, so I won’t see you off.” In that instant of mental exchange, the two sides had already reached a deal and the cultivation technique had been passed on.

Next, it will be Mu Yaoguang's turn to pass on Bai Ze's cultivation techniques.

As for how to transmit it, it is of course "the true Dharma eye treasure, transmitted from heart to heart".

This was originally supposed to be a "power transfer" between Ekaterina and Bai Ze, but now Mu Yaoguang is doing it on their behalf. Anyway, even if Bai Ze obtains the power in this way, he'll still have to transfer it from heart to heart with Mu Yaoguang later.

Faced with Mu Yaoguang's declaration, Ekaterina was not angry. She simply stood up, gently wiped her lips, and smiled, "Then I won't bother you any longer."

After saying that, she walked gracefully out of Bai Ze's room, her heels clicking rhythmically on the ground.

After Ekaterina left, a look of emotion finally appeared on Mu Yaoguang's face.

She first looked at Luo Shui and said, "Luo Shui, go and ask Lu Qiudi how the theologian's genetic research is going?"

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Shui was taken aback at first, then nodded in agreement and left the guest room.

The next stage is obviously domestic violence. Ah Shui, I'll be praying for you, Lao Bai.

After Luo Shui left, Mu Yaoguang glanced at Bai Ze and said indifferently, "The Holy Maiden of Ursus, are her lips soft?"

Mu Yaoguang understood the meaning behind Catherine's final action.

It's nothing more than "Bai Ze's first kiss wasn't with you, Mu Yaoguang, but with me, Yekaterina."

No matter how well Mu Yaoguang cultivated her composure, she still found it difficult to suppress her anger in the face of such a provocative act.

But Bai Ze smiled when he saw Mu Yaoguang's expression.

"Hmm..." He hesitated for a moment, as if pondering, then shook his head and said, "I don't know. At the time, I was only thinking about winning, but no matter what, I can't compare to you, Yaoguang."

He looked at Mu Yaoguang, his eyes like autumn water, clear and deep, revealing the emotions in his heart.

Mu Yaoguang met Bai Ze's eyes and immediately understood what her previous actions meant.

Isn't this just jealousy?
No matter how detached one's mindset is, it's difficult to maintain composure when faced with matters of the heart.

The angrier Mu Yaoguang was, the more she cared about Bai Ze.

How could Bai Ze not be happy to see this?

Mu Yaoguang realized what was happening, and seeing Bai Ze's delighted expression, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed and annoyed.

With this combination of suppression and retaliatory measures, the previous dissatisfaction gradually faded away.

It was Bai Ze's brilliant plan that brought peace to the world; winning the lady didn't cost us any soldiers.

"So, shall we continue the transmission of skills now?"

As Bai Ze spoke, he stood up, took Mu Yaoguang's hand, and their eyes met.

Mu Yaoguang did not respond, but just looked at Bai Ze, her eyelashes trembling slightly, each one seemingly secretly counting the rhythm of her heartbeat.

Their gazes shifted, an invisible connection was established, and the essence of the technique was transmitted, but not like the flood that had come before, but like a gentle stream, flowing softly and slowly.

In the blink of an eye, the two figures merged together.
