Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress

Chapter 167: Who Arranged The Engagement? Does He Have A Death Wish?

The Night Bar.

It was the most mysterious bar in the International Association.

It was also the primary base for Number One Intelligence Agency. Nearly all the powers wished to have this agency for their own. However, these people had never even met the guy behind the agency before. There was no way any of them could gain control of the group.

Qu Yan knew Su Huiqing needed to settle some serious business, and so led Qing Zi over to the dance floor.

Su Huiqing followed Apollo to the bar counter.

She tapped the countertop and spoke to the bartender. “Give me your signature drink.”

“The same for me,” Apollo said.

Two signature drinks were soon placed before them. The liquid was a gradient of colors and looked very lovely.

“Everything is in here.” Su Huiqing took a sip before tossing a thumb drive on the counter.

“This is…” Apollo downed his drink, feeling the liquid burn his throat.

But the fire in his eyes raged even hotter as he gazed at the thumb drive.

“I have already virtually tested a nuclear explosion experiment.” Su Huiqing indifferently held her drink, utterly unconcerned about the effects that her words would have on Apollo. “It is probably powerful enough to destroy an entire island.”

Apollo tightened his grip on the thumb drive.

With this new weapon, their power would be significantly magnified. “I will transfer you the rest of the money tomorrow.”

“No hurry.” Su Huiqing glanced at him with slightly raised eyebrows. “Transfer the money after you have constructed it and run tests on it.”

“I trust you.” Apollo waved away her words. “There’s no need to wait.”

“As you wish.” Su Huiqing didn’t care when the money would be transferred to her. She glanced sideways at him, still swirling the glass in her hand. “But I have a request.”

Apollo was slightly taken aback. “Tell me.”

Su Huiqing smiled devilishly. “You cannot sell this weapon to the Su Family on Unknown Island.”

Apollo thought that a request by the Queen of Mercenaries should be challenging to fulfill. He never expected such a simple criteria.

The Su Family?

He narrowed his eyes as he watched Su Huiqing’s lovely face before lowering his gaze and falling into deep thought.

There were rumors that Su S was one of the Su Family people…

Lifting his eyes again.

A tall, strapping figure emerged from a dark corner of the bar and headed their way. Apollo snapped out of his thoughts and raised his empty drink. “That fellow is here.”

Apollo was referring to Dugu Yusheng.

The Demon Concentration Camp’s Intelligence Agency Chief.

In reality, no one outside of the Demon Concentration Camp knew of Dugu Yusheng’s name. And only a few within the Camp had met him in person.

If not for the fact that Dugu Yusheng had caught wind of news of Su Huiqing, he would not have come.

Su Huiqing didn’t look in that direction as her cell phone vibrated.

There was a message: Where are you?

A simple question which looked just so cold and unfriendly.

Su Huiqing was momentarily taken aback, before typing a reply. “Night Bar.”

Yu Shijin saw her reply and extinguished his cigarette. He typed back with one hand: I am at your school gates. I am coming over right now. Come out and meet me.”

The Night Bar was just a few streets away from Monster University.

There was no such thing as traffic jams in the International Association.

Three minutes would be more than enough.

Su Huiqing pursed her lips on receiving his text. She kept her cell phone and placed her drink on the counter.

Her action gave pause to Apollo. “Dugu is not here yet, and you are already leaving?”

“I have something on.” Su Huiqing tucked one hand in her pocket and smiled at Apollo. “We will speak again next time.”

Heavens knew that meeting Su Huiqing was even more difficult than meeting Dugu.

Apollo didn’t know when he would meet her again.

Dugu Yusheng wandered over only after Su Huiqing disappeared through the door. He had the bartender mix him a signature drink.

He had clearly no idea what he had just missed.

Apollo lit a cigarette. “Have you been busy lately?”

“I have been spending all my time investigating news from Unknown Island.” Even with his face lowered, Dugu Yusheng’s good looks could not be concealed. His tone was mild. “It wouldn’t be called Unknown Island if news about it could be easily traced.”

“Unknown Island is now a headless dragon, and many people are targeting them.” Apollo flicked the ash from his cigarette with a low chuckle.

Dugu Yusheng kept silent at this.
