Collapse Iron: The Five Heroes of the Clouds Won't Let Me Go

"So the current situation is... the company has agreed to support and resolve the corruption problem?"

"That's right, it's all thanks to me, Uncle Xiao, I'm amazing, aren't I!" Xing patted his chest, looking like he was taking credit.

"Good, good, good, Xing, you're the best." Cheng Xiao praised her like an elder.

"What about us? We contributed too, okay!" Bai Heng felt resentful.

"What are you doing? You're comparing yourself to a star?"

"No, no, I want to be patted on the head too."

"...How big of a fox is he? He's still acting like a child." Cheng Xiao sighed helplessly and granted Bai Heng's request.

Then a very strong gaze fell on Cheng Xiao, and Xu Zhao stared at him with his cute big eyes, looking aggrieved.

"What are you doing? Just stay out of it." Cheng Xiao said with a look of disgust.

"Honey, how can you be so biased? You know, Fleming, such a big shot, only helped because of me. Don't you have any reward for me?"

I'll slap you across the face.

Cheng Xiao grabbed Xu Zhao's head:

"I'm asking you, just how much trouble did you cause in the past? What happened during the War of the Gods?"

The image in the image showed a look of reminiscence, followed by a hint of melancholy in its eyes:

"Alas, that was a past I couldn't bear to recall, a wrong path I took when I was young and naive; a time of entanglement with the gods, a time when peach and blood mingled together. Looking back now... it was a nightmare. It was a strange adventure that I could talk about for three days and three nights, or simply 'Teru-Teru's Strange Adventure'."

"So you're saying you caused trouble in the past, and now you have to make the whole universe clean up your mess?" Cheng Xiao commented incisively.

"How can you slander me like that? I made mistakes in the past, but that's so long ago, it doesn't define me now!"

"How could you have the nerve to say something like that?!" Cheng Xiao gave him a sharp two-finger punch after making a feint.

The group then met up with Sunday and March 7th, and upon learning that the negotiations had been successful, the two were overjoyed.

Soon, the projection of the pearl appeared, eagerly announcing the good news:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the company has dispatched fifty Star Destroyers and one hundred supply ships to temporarily set up outside the orbit of the Two-Phase Paradise. Since the buildings in the paradise have all been restored by Mr. Cheng Xiao, the company has dispatched only armed guards. After the troops move in, all residents of the Two-Phase Paradise can temporarily resume their normal lives."

"As for how to deal with the gluttonous beast's molted body, Mr. Cheng Xiao, what are your plans?"

"I'd like to inquire about the company's plans first."

"Yes, because I am in charge of the Two-Phase Paradise. If the company puts in full effort, I will use my own foundation to guide the protective power to descend and seal the Two-Phase Paradise like insects in amber."

Cheng Xiao agreed, "That is indeed a good method, but it cannot cure the problem completely. Let's go back to Erxiang Paradise."

"Don't rush, going back so early won't solve anything, will it? Why don't you just stay in Thousand Star City and have some more fun?" Xu Zhao suddenly interjected.

"What do you mean? There's a time bomb buried in Erxiang Paradise. Instead of defusing it as soon as possible, you're thinking about having fun?" Cheng Xiao asked, utterly puzzled.

"Well, because of everything you did before, the Glutton's endless appetite has finally returned to a state of satiety, so it's basically not going to cause any trouble anymore. But those who covet the Glutton won't stop. There are quite a few schemers hiding in Thousand Star City."

Xing asked curiously, "Schemer? What do you mean? The company has already agreed to help us, would anyone go against that?"

On Sunday, he strongly agreed: "I agree with this idea. Just now, many people wanted to board the train in the name of 'curiosity,' but after observing them with the power of modulation, I found that they were all carrying negative emotions. Upon closer inspection, I discovered that they were all spies who wanted to explore the concept of returning to tranquility."

"Wow, no wonder they were so enthusiastic, I almost let them on the bus!" March 7 exclaimed, covering her mouth.

"Right, right! Guiji and his Guidance Dice have attracted countless mosquitoes that smell the scent of profit. So, do you think there will be few people secretly plotting against things related to the Star God?" Xu Zhao sneered.

"These guys...aren't they afraid of getting burned?" Bai Heng shuddered.

"Stop daydreaming. Intellectual madmen and fateful lunatics, they don't care about these things, not even their own lives." Xu Zhao shook his head helplessly, as if he had long been accustomed to it.

Cheng Xiao asked, "Then the Two-Phase Paradise can't be left unattended, can it? How long can the gluttonous ones remain calm after their slumber?"

"Ten years, I guess."

"Ten years?!" everyone exclaimed.

"How did you know?" March 7th discovered the key point.

Sunday frowned as well. Yes, these were all confidential matters that Xu Zhao mentioned. How did she know them?

"Oh, this..."

Xu Zhao was a little embarrassed and quickly gestured to Cheng Xiao and the others to help her cover up the lie.

Xing took the initiative to speak: "Teacher Xuzhao just attended the company's decision-making meeting with me. These data and intelligence were analyzed by the company's senior management."

The clever Cheng Xiaoweixing silently gave a thumbs up.

However, if ten years of stability can be guaranteed, then there seems to be no need to rush.

"So what are you planning to do? Travel around Thousand Star City? That seems a bit out of place, doesn't it?" Cheng Xiao asked curiously.

"The Institute of Biological Research, I don't know if you've heard of it, but... it hides a lot of good things and secrets." Xu Zhao said mysteriously.

"I've heard that it's one of the research institutes of the company's [Technology Research and Development Department], which advocates biological research, and many effective drugs for treating physical defects were developed there," he said on Sunday.

"What are you trying to say? Is there some secret hidden in the Biotechnology Research Institute?" Xing asked curiously.

"Oh, do you remember what Mr. Tian said not long ago? There was a die that someone wanted to die, do you remember?"

"I don't remember. You know I only ever pay attention to beautiful women." Xing crossed her arms, looking wise.

Xu Zhao: "...What about Bai Heng? You should remember him, right?"

"Huh? Me? Hiss—this...that...there seems to be such a person, what's their name again? Um...if someone tells me their name, I'll definitely remember!" Bai Heng crossed his arms and racked his brains, seemingly having exhausted all his brain cells.

Xu Zhao took a deep breath. Were these two deliberately trying to annoy her? As expected of Kaituo, one day she'd give them both a good kick in the ass.

"Avalokitesvara! Avalokitesvara! Remember this: this woman wants to possess the dice of Guiji, or even Guiji itself! Coveting the Great Lord of Annihilation—she doesn't seem like a good person at all!"

Xing & Bai Heng: "So it was her! I remember now!"

The blood pressure was high, as indicated by the false light.
