My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 1597

The two turned into afterimages and ran toward the Lowe residence.

Nash landed on the balcony of Devon's bedroom and said gently, "Devon, my brother-in-law, follow me..."

"Nash?" Devon responded. He was hiding behind the curtains, wondering why the two military generals were fighting desperately for him. When he heard Nash's voice, he snapped back to his senses. He turned around to see that Nash was still wearing a bathrobe.

Nash grabbed Devon and jumped to the roof.

Gerbind shouted, "Quick, Dragnet Trap!"

June shouted with red eyes, "Space Blockade!"

The two troop leaders from Gerbind's team simultaneously released powerful currents to form a huge fishnet that fell from the sky.

Both of June's troop leaders closed their eyes at the same time and used their spiritual power to confine the space.

Nash raised his hand and whipped out the Dragon's Roar Shotgun, then held the gun handle and fired. A booming fire dragon roar broke through the power grid.

Distortion appeared in the confined space.

"Devon is my brother-in-law, so of course, he has to join the Celestial Dragon Squadron!" Nash grinned as he left with Devon.

If Devon had already been taken away by them, Nash would have no reason to snatch him from them.

However, these two people were obviously busy fighting over Devon, so Nash might as well help himself. "Mr. Yohan, Mr. Zidane, today is a special situation. I'll come visit you again another day!"

With that, Nash floated in the air.

Yohan and Zidane stared blankly at Nash, who was flying away. Their worldview collapsed completely.

Swordriding? Was that not a skill only immortals were capable of? Did Nash cultivate to the realm of immortals already?

"Ahhh! Nash, I'm not done with you!" June was so angry that she burst into tears.

Who would understand the feeling of having something precious in the palm of your hand, only to lose it?

"Ahem... June... It's all your fault. If you hadn't fought with me, wouldn't we have taken Devon away by now?" Gerbind acted ahead and blamed June despite his guilty conscience. "Shut up! Go back and wait to be punished!"

June took out her cell phone and was about to call Professor Nedha to lodge a complaint.

"June..." Gerbind quickly stepped forward and grabbed June's arm, begging pitifully, "Don't do it. I know I was wrong. It's all my fault this time!"

June was furious and kicked Gerbind away. She growled angrily, "Damn bastard, you'll be punished for sure! I'm reporting you!"

With that, she dialed Professor Nedha's number.

"June dear, please let me go and I'll give you five candidates!"

Gerbind was really scared.

There was an Esper Research Center at the Divine Strategy Squadron's base camp. Professor Nedha was the head of the Esper Research Center. He had two sides to his personality-a gentle side and a violent side.

Last time, when the Jonford Esper was intercepted by the Celestial Dragon Squadron, Professor Nedha was so triggered that his second personality almost woke up. If he knew that he was intercepted by the Celestial Dragon Squadron this time, Professor Nedha would probably go on a rampage.

Furthermore, the culprit was also Gerbind this time. If Professor Nedha got angry, Gerbind would definitely be in trouble.

"Hey... June!" An old voice came from the other end of the phone.

Gerbind clasped his hands together and begged pitifully.

June had a moment of weakness. She decided to let Gerbind go when she thought about the five new candidates he offered.

"Professor Nedha, Devon doesn't want to join Divine Strategy Squadron and instead joined the Celestial Dragon Squadron!"

"What? That shouldn't be the case. Didn't the liaison team say yesterday that Devon had agreed to join the Divine Strategy Squadron?"

Professor Nedha's tone was unpleasant, tinged with slight anger.

"Devon's sister is Nash's girlfriend. Of course, he would join his brother-in-law's organization!" June lied sheepishly.

"In that case, forget it. There'll be many Espers awakening in the near future, so please be more careful!" Professor Nedha quickly stabilized his mood and said in a calm tone.

"It usually takes several years for an awakened Esper to appear. Why is the rate of awakening Espers so high this year?" June asked doubtfully.

"The secret realm of the Immortal Falls is about to open. I suspect this phenomenon is brought about by the mysterious power in that secret realm!"
