Chapter 168 Being a Marshal's Daughter Isn't Easy

"These files... are we really okay just opening and looking at them like this?"
Yu Liu was still uneasy. Even if Yan Ning was Dongfang Qingyuan's personal guard, these things that were clearly covered as top secret should not be touched by anyone other than important people.
"What problem could there be?" Yan Ning didn't take it seriously, but she still remembered that she was currently playing the role of an insignificant bodyguard. After thinking for a moment, she explained, "These files are stored in the Marshal's Mansion. Apart from updating the information on them from time to time, they are of no use."
"Why? Isn't Marshal Dongfang a soldier? Shouldn't soldiers protect the people? These people are all wicked and countless people have died at their hands. If we didn't know their location, it would be fine, but since we do, why doesn't Marshal Dongfang arrest them?"
Yu Liu was completely baffled. According to the information she had gathered online, Marshal Dongfang should not be someone who would stand idly by and do nothing when he saw bad people committing evil deeds. However, the facts were right in front of her. The information in these files was constantly being updated, which meant that Marshal Dongfang had been sending people to follow these people, but he had not taken any action. Instead, he allowed these people to get their hands dirty with blood every now and then.
"Uh..." Yan Ning paused for a moment, then remembered his other identity. It wouldn't be good if Yu Liu developed a dislike for him. So he thought it over and gave Yu Liu a little hint about the reason.
"There's a reason for that, and it's more or less related to Marshal Taishu." Yan Ning secretly observed Yu Liu's expression and, seeing that there was no obvious change in her expression, she felt a little relieved.
"Don't be angry about what I'm about to say..." He scratched his head, somewhat hesitantly, and said, "Marshal Dongfang suspects that these people are connected with Marshal Taishu, but he has no evidence to prove this, which is why he has been hesitant to take action."
"I see." Yu Liu understood somewhat. As the marshal of the alliance, Tai Shu Yan Nuo held a very high position. If he made any bad moves, the consequences for the alliance would be very serious. It was understandable that he was cautious.
"Aren't you angry? Marshal Taishu is your father..."
"Don't be angry." It's not like he's really her father, Yu Liu thought to herself. "Marshal Dongfang is just doing what he should do. I don't understand these things and I have no right to comment. Even if the other person were my father, it would be the same."
Yu Liu organized all the file folders and handed them to Yan Ning: "Since Marshal Dongfang can still use these people, let's just abandon our plan."
"Hey, don't!" Yan Ning suddenly realized she had shot herself in the foot, and was momentarily flustered. "These people used to be useful, but now they're basically useless. I... um... I heard the Marshal say that he had all the information he wanted, and these people were going to be dealt with gradually. That's why I dared to bring this over. Let's just consider it helping the Marshal eliminate the criminals first, and it can save the Alliance a lot of manpower!"
Yan Ning's flustered appearance made Yu Liu a little suspicious: "Really?"
"Really!" Yan Ning shook the file bag in her hand: "I shouldn't have access to something like this that's marked 'Top Secret.' The reason I got my hands on it is because the Marshal ordered me to dispose of it. Why did I secretly keep it and bring it here? If the Marshal finds out, I'll be in deep trouble. I've already sacrificed so much, are you really not going to accept it?"
His expression didn't seem like he was lying. Yu Liu thought for a moment and pulled one out of the file bag in Yan Ning's hand: "Then, let's deal with this first, and then see how things go. If Marshal Dongfang really doesn't care, we'll deal with the others."
"Okay, listen to you!"
Anyway, Marshal Dongfang himself is already here, focused on helping someone, so why would he care about these things...
……
Following Li Tianqiu's execution, the mysterious person who gained immense global attention did not disappoint. She maintained a routine of arresting one heinous criminal each month and handing them over to the police without fail.
As more and more combat videos circulated, more people learned that there was such a powerful superhuman in the world. Her superpowers were also widely discussed, and everyone speculated about the nature of the red and white light emitted by her superpowers. There were many opinions, but no conclusion was reached.
As time went by, this mysterious person's reputation grew, even surpassing that of Dongfang Qingyuan of the Alliance. After all, Dongfang Qingyuan was a member of the Alliance, and even if the people of the Empire truly admired him, they wouldn't dare to express it openly. This mysterious person, however, was different. She had no clear stance between the Alliance and the Empire, appeared and disappeared without a trace, and eliminated so many hidden dangers for both the Empire and the Alliance. The high-ranking officials of the Empire and the Alliance had no reason to resist her.
With Yan Ning's help, Yu Liu lived a leisurely life, spending her time online and occasionally taking classes. She would only attend exams when she was confident of passing them, and if she missed an exam, she would notify Yan Ning. No one knew what method Yan Ning used, but in any exam, even if Yu Liu hadn't attended, Tai Shu Shang's name was always ranked first.
Time flies, and six years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Yu Liu, who had been living a carefree life, finally graduated from school!
"You were able to graduate smoothly mainly because of me. Have you thought about how to repay me?"
Yan Ning leaned lazily against the balcony wall, sunlight streaming in, and he squinted comfortably.
"I haven't thought about it yet." Yu Liu's eyes were fixed on the screen in front of her. The little figure on the screen moved left and right, constantly dodging the monster's attacks, and occasionally retaliating. "Besides, I don't think I need to think about it."
The little character on the screen was critically hit by the monster and instantly died. Yu Liu clicked "exit game" with some helplessness and looked back at Yan Ning lying on the balcony.
"Take whatever you want. You know what I have here anyway."
Upon hearing this, a dark emotion flashed in Yan Ning's eyes: "What if I wanted—you to repay me with your body?"
"sure."
Yu Liu didn't care at all, as if she didn't understand what Yan Ning was trying to say, but what she said was a trap: "As long as you can get my father to agree to let me marry you, whatever."
Anyway, Taishu Yannuo would never agree to that; he was still waiting for his daughter and wife to help him achieve immortality.
Speaking of which, I've almost accomplished my goal of coming into this world. Now it's time to plan Taishu Shang's future life properly. I can't keep living under Taishu Yannuo's protection forever; it wouldn't be good if I fell into Taishu Yannuo's trap.
My body is now 18 years old. If I remember correctly, Taishu Shang's mother died when she was in her twenties. It seems like she doesn't have many years left. She needs to get out of this mess as soon as possible.
