The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

"What did you say?!"

Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Jin Xinxin and the others' expressions changed drastically, staring at Lu Yuan in shock.

Wu Jianming frowned, his expression extremely serious.

Lu Yuan remained silent for a moment, his face expressionless.

He underestimated Wu Gu Hui and also underestimated Zhu Fu Yuan's methods.

I knew the Wu Gu Hui had a powerful background, but I didn't expect that they also had close ties with high-ranking military officials.

If they weren't high-ranking military officials, how could they dare to seize the Starry Sky Club's helicopter? If their relationship wasn't particularly close, how could they risk offending the Starry Sky Club for the sake of the Martial Arts Society?

Although I suspected that the Wu Gu Hui and the Xing Chen Hui Guan had some dealings, I never expected that their connection was so deep that the Hui Guan would betray me and stab me in the back.

Zhu Fuyuan did this in order to force Lu Yuan out of the Starry Sky Club!

Although Lu Yuan is strong, he is only a four-star general. As the president of the Wu Gu Hui Chongming Base City, Zhu Fuyuan could easily destroy him if he had no other considerations.

At least that's how it appears on the surface.

What Zhu Fuyuan was wary of were Lu Yuan's two identities: the son-in-law of the Shen family and a martial artist from the Starry Sky Club.

Killing Lu Yuan would mean becoming a complete enemy of both sides.

Therefore, Zhu Fuyuan first needs to strip Lu Yuan of these two identities.

"Director, please find someone else to replace me."

After a moment, Lu Yuan spoke again.

Without his identity as a martial artist from the Starry Sky Club, Zhu Fuyuan had one less thing to worry about.

Lu Yuan knew this very well, but he didn't want to implicate Jin Xinxin and the others.

Now that the Nandou Squad's mission has been suspended, the next step may be to directly target Lu Yuan's teammates, and even Ye Qingluan and her team from the Special Operations Team.

In short, Zhu Fuyuan will try every means to drive Lu Yuan out of the Starry Sky Club.

Since that's the case, it's better to make a decision sooner rather than later.

Looking back, Lu Yuan never intended to be a professional martial artist in the first place. He inexplicably ended up in this situation, and his withdrawal now can be considered a timely pullback.

"I disagree!"

Shen Qiubing spoke, looking at Lu Yuan with anger.

"Yes! We disagree!"

Jin Xinxin and the others came to their senses, their faces also filled with determination.

"If Seven Killers is going to be replaced, they might as well replace us all. This year's Southern Dipper Team is over!"

"you……"

Unexpectedly, apart from Shen Qiubing, others, including Tang Guangming, were also willing to support him to this extent.

Although it sounds a bit sentimental, Lu Yuan was genuinely touched once again.

But it makes sense, since the Nandou team was formed, they have not only spent every day together, but have also risked their lives together in one difficult and dangerous mission after another.

The bond between us had deepened without us even realizing it; we were no longer just colleagues or teammates, but comrades-in-arms!

"Who said anything about changing the members! What nonsense about disbanding!"

Wu Jianming glared at Jin Xinxin and the others, then looked at Lu Yuan and said in a deep voice.

"I will try to communicate with the association. Please be patient for now. I don't think the Grand Elder will remain indifferent."

Lu Yuan frowned slightly. If Wu Jianming could be communicated with, the Nan Dou team wouldn't have been brought back today.

As for Shen Fuyue, the Shen family has already clashed with the Wu Gu Association. Given their differing stances, the association is unlikely to consider his opinion on this matter.

"All right."

Looking at Wu Jianming and then at the rest of the team, Lu Yuan nodded.

Good intentions are hard to deny.

These people are all thinking of him, and whether it succeeds or not, he has to be grateful.

I might as well wait; it's just a waste of time.

"Stay at base and don't cause trouble!"

For the next period of time, the Nandou team will likely have no missions to do.

After giving everyone a few words of advice, Wu Jianming hurriedly left.

Only the six of them remained in the meeting room, and the atmosphere became somewhat somber.

"No missions, no missions. I'll just take a break. Ever since I joined the guild, I feel like I haven't had a single rest. Consider this a vacation!"

Jin Xinxin spoke, feigning a relaxed tone.

"That's right, consider it a vacation."

The others nodded, and Gao Shu spoke again.

"This will give us more time to practice battle formations."

"Yes, yes, yes! This is important."

Everyone nodded again, and a rare look of joy appeared in their eyes as they thought of Lu Yuan's improved version of the Southern Dipper Battle Formation.

"Even if our accumulated points can't match the Beidou team, and we lose the initiative in the competition, as long as we master this improved battle formation, we might not necessarily lose to them!"

"Yes! We'll teach them a lesson then."

"You startled them!"

"Let's go practice!"

The more they talked, the more excited they became. Eventually, they stopped caring that it was getting late and went straight to practice their battle formations.

Everyone seemed to be holding their breath, burying themselves in practice for several hours. Before they knew it, it was past midnight, and they finally dispersed.

Exhausted, I temporarily forgot about the mission.

Back in the room, Dongdong was still fast asleep. Lu Yuan lay down next to him and fell asleep immediately.

Next, the Nandou team stopped thinking about anything else and focused on their cultivation.

More than ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and there was still no news from Wu Jianming.

This was exactly what Lu Yuan had expected, and he didn't care. What was gratifying was that after these days of hard training, everyone had become basically familiar with the improved battle formation.

The key is to hone your skills through continuous practice in real-world scenarios, and you will gradually reach a level of mastery.

Once you've mastered the battle formations, you can dedicate more time to improving your cultivation level.

At this time, although Lu Yuan was already a four-star warrior in the Southern Dipper Squad, the others were only one-star, and overall they were still lagging behind the Northern Dipper Squad.

"Um?"

That noon, as everyone was practicing battle formations together as usual, a helicopter suddenly landed at the base.

It was the club's helicopter, but it wasn't Wu Jianming's.

This is the Star Dou Squad's base. Apart from the squad members, only Wu Jianming and a few other team members are here. Very few other people come here.

"Young master, the eldest young lady is here too."

It was a middle-aged man. Lu Yuan recognized him as the butler from the Shen family, the one who served Shen Fuyue.

The butler walked straight up to Lu Yuan, greeted Shen Qiubing beside him, and then spoke directly to Lu Yuan.

"The master has ordered that you return home immediately."

"What happened?!"

Before Lu Yuan could speak, Shen Qiubing asked a question urgently.

"Reporting to Miss, I am not clear about the specifics, but one thing is certain: Master gave these instructions for the sake of the young master."

The butler, with a calm and composed expression, spoke to Lu Yuan again.

"The master is still waiting at home."

"it is good."

After a moment's thought, Lu Yuan nodded.

Just as the butler said, he believed that Shen Fuyue would not harm him.

However, the fact that he was suddenly asked to go back at this time must mean that the situation had become quite serious.

You'll find out the details when you get back.

Without wasting any words, Lu Yuan followed the butler onto the still-hovering helicopter.

"I'll go back too!"

Feeling anxious, Shen Qiubing boarded the helicopter.

As the propellers accelerated, the helicopter ascended, carrying Lu Yuan and the others rapidly towards the Shen family's residence.

Jin Xinxin and the others stood on the ground, watching them leave. Then they looked at each other, their eyes filled with worry.

The situation has probably reached its worst point.
