# New player Aubry has issued a challenge to player 'Fatherly Love Mountain'. The battle will begin in three minutes. The coordinates are here. Come and watch! #

Litt, the rich man who liked to watch the show, spent money to post an announcement on the virtual mecha platform. Seeing the crowd of onlookers, he was relieved and stood guard at the best spot to watch the battle.

Rance asked him strangely, "Are you so sure that Aubry can help you get revenge?"

If it wasn't for Litt's deliberate guidance, Aubry, who never paid attention to the virtual world, wouldn't have known about the existence of these two weirdos, 'Fatherly Love Mountain' and 'Son Can Walk a Thousand Miles'. But … looking at Rosen's calm appearance, Rance had no confidence that Aubry could defeat Gou Liang.

Litt looked at the two people in front of him who were checking their mecha's data and preparing for the battle. He put away his playful smile and said seriously, "If you haven't really fought Aubry, you can't understand how scary he is. Rance, if 'Fatherly Love Mountain' holds the same attitude of looking down on your junior now, he will be at a disadvantage. "

"Just like you in the past?"

Rance looked at him with a teasing smile.

Litt's serious persona immediately collapsed. He whined and said, "Dear Mr. Rance, can you please not mention my dark history?"

Rance couldn't help but laugh. Litt moved closer to Rosen and saw that he was seriously looking at the instructions of a fruit instead of the personal information of the strong enemy, Aubry. He was speechless.

"Son Can Walk a Thousand Miles, do you look down on my junior so much? I'm not lying to you. He's really strong. Can you feel a little nervous about the battle of the century? "

Rosen ignored him. Litt didn't give up and said, "How about this, let's make a bet. If Aubry doesn't win, I'll do whatever you want. If my father loses, you'll let me see you and my father in real life. How about that? "

Lawson glanced at him. He didn't agree, but he didn't refuse either.

When Litt saw that the challenge was about to begin, he scratched his head anxiously. "Son, fine. If you don't say anything, I'll take it as a yes."

Rosen said, "I don't need you to do anything for me."

Litt: "…" Such a rejection was simply a critical hit.

In Rance's impolite laughter, he asked firmly, "Are you sure you don't want to think about it? Even if I can't do it, there's still my father and grandfather. They can't possibly not give you what you want, right? "

Rosen was not interested in this, but Gou Liang, who was paying attention to the big baby, interrupted, "It's a waste not to take advantage of it. Baby, it seems that Daddy needs to teach you the wisdom of life."

He then turned to Litt and said, "I'll agree on his behalf. I won't make things difficult for you. If I win, you can transfer 100,000 star coins to my darling as pocket money. How about it? "

"Good! Daddy is so straightforward. Hehe. "

Litt, who had achieved his goal, was very surprised. He didn't forget to shout at Aubry in the mech, "Dear junior, you heard it. Don't let me lose. I believe in you. Good luck! "

When he didn't get a response from Aubry, Litt touched his nose embarrassedly.

"She transformed just like that. That's impressive."

Rosen heard this from the side. He thought about it and clicked on the couple's private chat function with Gou Liang. The virtual images of the two were transferred to the couple's private chat in real time. Rosen warned him, "Aubry has dual personality. She can be very destructive when she pilots the mech. Be careful."

Gou Liang nodded. "Got it."

However, he was serious for only a second. He smiled and poked open the love bubbles in the couple's private chat. He scattered all over the world and pounced on him. "Good baby, give daddy a lucky kiss ~"

Rosen: "…"

At this time, the challenge entered a five-second countdown.

Gou Liang said sadly, "There's no kiss. Just let daddy die."

He shamelessly refused to get up. He lay flat and looked like he had nothing left to live for. He didn't even want to participate in the challenge that was about to begin.

Rosen listened to the countdown. He saw Gu Jun's big, hazy eyes looking at him as if he was about to cry. He resigned himself to his fate and squatted down. He leaned over and sighed helplessly. "Professor Gu, does your student know that you're like this?"

As he spoke, he lowered his head and kissed Gou Liang's pouting lips. Hearing him make a sound, Rosen couldn't help but smile.

3, 2 … 1.

When the countdown ended, Gou Liang exited the couple's private chat and threw himself into the battle.

The 100% softness on his lips disappeared. Rosen felt lost in the world of pink bubbles.

In your eyes, no matter how tall or weak I am, you'll always only see your adopted son, Gu Nineteen.

But if you knew what kind of person you were in my eyes, would you still indulge and pamper me as if nothing had happened?

Rosen stopped the dangerous thoughts and exited the couple's private chat as well.

His virtual image reappeared in the same place. Litt immediately said, "Son Xing Qian Li, where did you go? Do you know how wonderful the opening was? Just now, Aubry took the initiative to attack. Father dodged beautifully, but he was almost killed by my junior brother. I told you not to underestimate him. Look, how fierce their battle is now! He's really my junior brother. He's different from those who can't endure and can't be killed in seconds! "

Litt, who was pleased with himself, completely forgot that he was also one of the people who was killed in seconds by Gou Liang.

Rosen looked over. The battle on the field was indeed wonderful. Both sides of the duel were very fast. There were no flashy moves. The violent confrontation full of tension and wildness was not sloppy, making the atmosphere fierce and tense. This was especially true for Aubrey. Every time he made a move, he would ruthlessly smash his opponent to pieces. Every move he made showed his high level of control and accurate prediction. In contrast, Gou Liang, who had not yet adapted to his fighting rhythm and had been blindly dodging, was in a somewhat difficult situation.

But Rosen only took a glance before he withdrew his gaze. It was as if this match was no different from Gou Liang's previous one-hit kill.

Of course, there was a difference.

"What do you mean? Am I not worthy to be your opponent?"

Aubry asked gloomily.

In a tense battle, it was not the bystander who could see it clearly. On the contrary, only Aubry understood his current situation.

Gou Liang was always able to predict Aubry's attack and use the most time-saving and precise angle to dodge in the shortest amount of time. The counterattacks he gave Aubry were like scratching an itch through a shoe. He did not show his strength at all.

However, up until now, Gou Liang had yet to truly make a move, and he had been completely fooled by the other party!

Aubry deeply understood a fact. As long as Gou Liang wanted to, he could kill him in seconds just like how he dealt with the others.

But he did not.

He easily pressured Aubry, giving him the illusion that he had escaped from a hopeless situation. Again and again, he burst out with his strongest and fiercest counterattacks. Later, he knew that it was useless, but he had to give it his all. If he did not do so, he would lose even more miserably.

Compared to his embarrassment, the calm Gou Liang seemed to be enjoying a show. This made Aubry extremely angry.

Gou Liang laughed. "How could that be, junior? I'm just very interested in the current you. I'm not willing to let you leave so soon."

Aubry attacked while sneering. "If that's the case, you can come to me openly. I, Aubry Smith, will be waiting for you at any time."

Gou Liang said, "The Smith Family's name resounds like thunder. Star-link is second only to the royal family. It's a top aristocratic family on par with the Haris and the Marshall Family. A small commoner like me does not dare to associate with them. "

Aubry narrowed his eyes. "With your and Er 'er's ability, it wouldn't be a problem for you to join any family. You didn't do so because you don't want to. It's not that you can't associate with them. However, you seem to be very interested in the Smith Family. If there's anything I can do for you, you can tell me directly. I won't refuse. "

"No, you misunderstand." Gou Liang laughed. "I'm not interested in the Smith Family at all. As I said, I'm interested in you. Your Excellency Aubry Smith. "

"Rosen Douglas Dunn's successor, S-rank spiritual power, A-rank physical technique user. Oh, so the Smith Family secretly wanted to capture Professor Gu Ling to build a mecha for you? However, you're too impatient. Even without Rosen, the Douglas Royal Family is not without a successor. Besides, there's still Haris and Marshall. The Smith Family can't possibly sit in that position, right? Can you really afford to be so reckless and take such a risk? Or is it that the Smith Family is hiding a secret weapon to win other than you? "

Aubry's expression changed drastically. He asked in disbelief, "You actually know …"

"That was close." Gou Liang perfectly weakened his impatient operation mistake. Seeing that Aubry had adjusted back to his best combat state, he said casually, "I still want to spend some more time with you. Your Excellency Aubry, you must be careful next time. Don't get yourself killed."

"Your Excellency dares to tell me so openly. It seems like you don't care about the Smith Family at all."

Aubry held back his anger.

"I'm just speaking the truth. What's there to be afraid of?"

Gou Liang's attitude was still casual. "But don't worry, I'm not a talkative person. I won't publicize your shameful deeds. I'm looking forward to the battle between the Smith Family and the Royal Family. Wouldn't it be a pity if this kind of once-in-a-thousand-years show ends before it even begins? "

"Your Excellency, what kind of role do you want to play in this game —"

Aubry had just started to probe when Gou Liang regretfully interrupted him. "Oh, sorry. Someone's looking for me. Excuse me, we'll talk next time. "

After saying that, Gou Liang quickly defeated Aubry and left the net of light without waiting for the latter to react.

Aubry left one after the other.

When he walked out of the game pod, it was the first time he appeared as a secondary personality without operating a mech. Moreover, his expression was extremely ugly.

The Smith Family members who were waiting outside were shocked when they saw this. They hurriedly came up to him. "Young Master, how strong are those two people? Are they worth recruiting? "

Aubry didn't answer his meaningless question. Instead, he asked coldly, "Have you tracked them down?"

"No, their security measures are too high. We can't break through."

"Think of a way, no matter the cost, to find those two people." Aubry had already expected this result. He said calmly and looked at the housekeeper beside him. "Go and ask Grandpa to come back. I have something to discuss with him."

Aubry appeared very calm, but in fact, the appearance of a father's mountainous love had already made Aubry flustered.

He originally thought that all the plans of his family were watertight, and that the Smith Family already had enough strength to contend with the royal family. He never thought that their ultimate secret would be so casually exposed by an unknown stranger on such an occasion.

This made him doubt his family for the first time.

But no matter what, he wouldn't be able to sleep or eat in peace if he didn't find the people hiding in the dark and completely tear them apart.

— — These two people must not be left alive.

While Aubry's face was gloomy as he thought about how to deal with Gou Liang, Gou Liang, who had exited the game pod, was entertaining guests.

Ling Zishan, who had just returned from a trip to a distant sightseeing planet, hurried over with her husband.

"Damn that Banklow, I knew he wasn't a good person!"

Seeing that Gou Liang was unharmed, Ling Zishan, who was relieved, had the energy to be angry. Unfortunately, she still couldn't find the real culprit, so Ling Zi Shan could only vent her anger on the person who started it all.

"We shouldn't have forgiven him the first time he used such dirty means to deal with you. Now, he almost caused you to lose your life! Hmph, what's the use of locking him up? Sentencing him to life imprisonment is too good for that bastard! "

Even though the matter had passed without any mishaps, Ling Zishan, who was still afraid, was unable to restrain her anger.

After scolding Banklow, she couldn't help but scold Gou Liang. "Look at you, child. You always say that you can take care of yourself when you grow up. Look at how I've only been away for a few days, and you've already gotten yourself into this state. What's even more hateful is that you're actually in cahoots with that bastard Mitchell and didn't tell me anything. Do you know how scared I was when I heard about it? "

As she spoke, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

When the incident happened, Ling Zishan wasn't on the main planet.

The Mitchell family was keenly aware that this matter involved a wide range of people. Although the Mitchell family, who had made a fortune in business, was also a super wealthy family, they would only become cannon fodder in the face of a struggle of this level. Therefore, they cleverly maintained a silent attitude. Even Ling Zishan only learned about Gou Liang's danger from her husband on the way back.

She blamed her husband and nephew for keeping it a secret, but she also understood that her words carried little weight in this matter and would only add to Gou Liang's troubles. Therefore, she didn't say much, but she couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.

Even though she had finally married Mitchell after going through all kinds of difficulties, in Ling Zishan's heart, the only person she and her young son could really rely on and depend on was Gou Liang.

Therefore, she hated the person who had put Gou Liang in danger.

Gou Liang and Mitchell hurriedly apologized to her again and comforted her that everything was fine.

Ling Zishan still scolded him for a long time, feeling wronged. In the end, she remembered to ask about his adopted son. "What about the child? Was he hurt this time? So pitiful. He must have been scared to death, right? Oh, if I remember correctly, he's almost one year old. This birthday celebration should be a little more lively, so that the child can get over the shock … "

Before she finished speaking, she saw Gou Liang's disappointed eyes. She was shocked.

Looking around, Ling Zishan's tone became cautious. "Speaking of which, I haven't seen Little Nineteen today. Where is he? "

Gou Liang sighed softly and said with a little loneliness, "His genetic map has found a match, and he has been taken away by his biological parents."

The relationship between Lawson and his adoptive father was not good to be made public, so Gou Liang could only use this as an excuse. Since Lawson would soon be restored to his original state, it would not be good for him to claim to be Lawson's adoptive father in front of others, so he could only use this excuse as a reasonable explanation.

Ling Zishan breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought that the child had unfortunately died in the accident.

Seeing Gou Liang sad, Ling Zishan comforted him. "Xiao Ling, I know you like the child very much. However, after all, they are his biological parents. It's always lucky to grow up with them. Nineteen is so obedient and lovely. I believe they won't treat him badly. If you still don't want to get married, when your body is completely recovered, I will accompany you to adopt another child. "

Gou Liang shook his head and refused her kindness. "No, he won't be my Nineteen even if I adopt him. Aunt, you and uncle have just come back. If there's nothing else, you should go back and rest first. I will see you again after a while. "

Ling Zishan still wanted to stay and take care of him, but after being refused by Gou Liang, she did not insist.

After all, Gou Liang had always been very independent and did not like to be close to people. Now that she was married and had a family, it was impossible for her to be with him all the time.

Seeing that they were about to leave, Mitchell told Gou Liang the real purpose of his visit. "Gu Ling, you should have some ideas about this matter."

"Although now you are under the name of the royal family and your safety is temporarily guaranteed, some people are impossible to guard against. You should be more careful. If you need help, you can contact me at any time. Even if I can't help, I can be a middleman and find some way for you. "

"Thank you, uncle." Gou Liang smiled and then asked him, "I heard that you have some friendship with the Smith Family. Did they ask you to say these words?"

Mitchell nodded generously. He was not surprised that Gou Liang knew about this relationship. He just stood up and patted him on the shoulder. "Think about it carefully. You can give me an answer at any time."

Gou Liang thanked him again.

Before leaving, Ling Zishan stopped again. It seemed that she had something to say, but she was very hesitant.

After thinking for a while, she sent her husband out to wait for her. Then she said to Gou Liang in private, "Xiao Ling, I met a strange person when I went out this time … Do you still remember the symbol that sister and brother-in-law left for us before they went missing?"

"Of course I remember." Gou Liang looked serious. "Aunt, you met someone with a similar symbol?"

Ling Zishan nodded.

"Not only that. Although they were very secretive, I still found that they seemed to be looking for something here. They probably didn't find it. If that's the case, I'm afraid that they will make things difficult for you. Also, I suspect that the attack you encountered this time is related to this group of people! "

"Xiao Ling, sister and brother-in-law have been gone for so many years. I always thought that those things had died down, but now this thing has appeared again. This can't be a coincidence! I'm really scared … I don't know what they want to do, and I don't know what happened between sister and them, but you have to be careful. Don't try to be brave when something happens. Remember to inform me as soon as possible. Don't keep me in the dark like this time, okay? "

"Aunt, I'm very sorry this time. There won't be a next time."

Gou Liang hugged the woman whose eyes were a little wet. Ling Zishan rubbed the corner of her eyes and said with a smile, "You've grown up. I don't want to care about you anymore. I just want you to be safe."

"I understand."

Gou Liang replied.

[Xiao Si, investigate this totem and the person she's talking about.]

[Yes, master.]
