Chapter 884: Ninth Master Arrives
Upon hearing this, Xie Yuhuan suddenly recalled something. She had heard that the Xie Corporation was conducting research on the Human Enhancer in many secret research institutes around the world. Xie Ba, Xie Si, and the rest were previously experimental subjects. Because the Enhancer had changed their genes to a certain extent, their physical fitness was far stronger than ordinary people. There was no lack of failed experiments. However, those failed experimental subjects were long gone. And Xie Ba, who had his genes changed, had actually lost to Xie Shihao in the competition?
Xie Yuhuan fell into deep thought. What had happened to Xie Shihao? Why did he suddenly become so powerful? In the Sacred Island assessment this time, because of Xie Shihao’s sudden appearance, it directly ruined her careful plan from before. Some of her subordinates had already been separated and eliminated by Xie Jiuhan. Therefore, during this assessment, she planned to use this opportunity to bring a portion of her elites to the various core departments of the Xie Corporation.
However, Xie Shihao had brought the other three members of the logistics department to become the first in the team competition, causing the rankings of the other groups and Xie Yuhuan’s original predictions to deviate a lot. Hence, Xie Yuhuan had a headache. The result of the team competition was already like this. She was afraid that Xie Shihao would become an uncontrollable factor in the individual competition and affect her plan.
At the thought of this, Xie Yuhuan felt that she should do something. Hence, she prepared to leave. However, before she could move, she saw Xie Jiuhan stand up from his seat. Xie Yuhuan subconsciously asked, “Jiuhan, where are you going?”
According to the assessment process, after the team competition ended, everyone would rest for half an hour before the individual competition. Xie Jiuhan did not even turn his head as he replied, “Of course I’m going to cheer for my cute nephew!”
With that, he ignored Xie Yuhuan and walked straight to Xie Shihao, who was below the podium. At this moment, ‘Xie Shihao’ was bragging to the others. Some of them congratulated him, some tried to get information from him, and some were filled with curiosity and confusion.
Fatty finally calmed down. With the help of the bespectacled man and the dwarf man, he finally stood up. Just as his fat hand was about to pat ‘Xie Shihao’s’ shoulder, he suddenly felt a bone-chilling feeling coming from behind. Even though the Sacred Island was in the tropics and the surrounding temperature was more than 40 degrees, he still felt a chill on his back. It was this terrifying cold air that froze his arm in midair.
“Ninth-Ninth Master, hello!”
“It’s Ninth Master. Hello, Ninth Master!”
“Oh my god, has Ninth Master descended to the mortal world? It’s too touching.”
When they saw Xie Jiuhan appear in the venue, everyone was shocked. Then, they bowed and greeted him respectfully. Only at this moment did the fatty come back to his senses. He hurriedly turned around and saw that it was really Xie Jiuhan. Hence, he hurriedly bowed 90 degrees to Xie Jiuhan.
Hearing everyone’s exclamations, Feng Qing turned around. When she saw that Xie Jiuhan had already walked up to her, she was instantly stunned. Her heart immediately beat crazily.
“Oh my god! Could this man have recognized me? He’s so close…” Feng Qing thought worriedly.
Although she had disguised herself in front of Xie Jiuhan more than once, she had basically disguised herself as a stranger. Even if Xie Jiuhan saw it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t be able to see any problems. However, today, she had disguised herself as Xie Shihao. To put it bluntly, this man knew very well how many hairs Xie Shihao had.
At the thought of this, Feng Qing couldn’t help but panic. In particular, the man’s black eyes were dark and unfathomable. There was no fluctuation at all, making it impossible to guess his thoughts. Helpless, Feng Qing could only continue to act as Xie Shihao. Hence, she gave Xie Jiuhan a silly and sweet smile. Usually, when Xie Shihao met Xie Jiuhan, he would be like this.
“Hehe, Little Uncle, are you here to praise me, your little cutie?” Feng Qing imitated Xie Shihao’s voice and said seriously.
“Follow me. I have something to tell you.” Xie Jiuhan raised his chin and looked down at Xie Shihao.
Upon hearing this, Feng Qing’s heart beat even faster. She followed beside Xie Jiuhan and realized that he was walking towards the bathroom. Feng Qing stopped in her tracks and said, “Little Uncle, why are you looking for me? The individual competition is starting soon.”
Xie Jiuhan did not turn around. He said in a cold voice, “Don’t you need to go to the toilet during this half-hour rest?”
