Chapter 261: Chapter 261 Impending Mountain Rain_1
Ye Fei shot Wang Jianglong a glare, "Cut the crap, there’s nothing between us."
Wang Jianglong pouted, "Pull the other one, mate. Dark night, high winds, a lone man and a single woman together in one room, whispering sweet nothings—it even sounded...embarrassing."
"Saying there’s nothing going on—who’s gonna believe that?"
"Believe it or not."
Ye Fei couldn’t be bothered to explain.
"Hehe, little bro, little bro, I’m really envious of you, you know? An evergreen at home and a parade of colors outside."
"Ah, not like me—just a poor, single older brother, nearing the age of thirty without a glimpse of my other half in sight."
As Wang Jianglong spoke, his eyes started to brim with tears, looking pitiful indeed.
"Enough already, what’s the big deal? A grown man like you, aren’t you ashamed?"
"Hey, you just don’t know the hunger of someone who is starving, damn it."
Wang Jianglong muttered, his expression turning somewhat melancholic.
Ye Fei actually felt pretty bad for this older brother of his.
As part of the special forces unit of the war department, constantly fighting on the front lines, protecting home and country, safeguarding the dignity of Daxia.
He really had no time to manage his personal life.
It was quite pitiful when you thought about it.
"Hm, I’ve got to help this good brother find a great match when there’s a chance."
Ye Fei made a silent vow to himself.
"Alright, let’s talk business."
Ye Fei gave Wang Jianglong a look.
The latter immediately nodded solemnly.
The two then went downstairs and got into a war department vehicle.
Over a dozen soldiers surrounded the vehicle, standing by with their weapons, looking formidable.
Many passersby gasped in admiration.
"People from the war department just have that look! Look at that imposing presence; it’s not something just anyone can have."
"Isn’t that the truth? That’s why they say every man should join the army!"
"Yeah, yeah, but wouldn’t it be even cooler to be the one inside the car, guarded by them?"
"You’ve got a point!"
A child overheard the adults and said in a milky voice, "Mommy, that uncle who got on the car must be really awesome. I saw even the leader was so respectful to him. Mommy, when I grow up, I want to be a man like that!"
The beautiful mother, after listening, caressed her son’s head: "Good son, that’s a fine ambition, but you’ve got to work hard for it, you know."
"Yeah! I will!"
The little boy nodded vigorously, his innocent eyes already brimming with boundless radiance.
Inside the war department vehicle.
Once Wang Jianglong settled in, he took out his phone, displaying a photo of an ancient badge on the screen.
"Take a look, do you recognize this?"
Ye Fei took it in his hands and pondered for a moment, his eyes then lit up sharply.
"This pattern on the badge; I’ve seen it before."
"Where?"
"Pangu Sect, a branch hall."
A few months ago, when Ye Fei had infiltrated the Pangu Sect’s dragon pool alone, a part of the pattern carved on the wall in the center of the main hall matched the pattern on the badge in his hand.
"Then there must be no mistake."
Ye Fei suddenly realized something ominous: "Could it be that the one targeting my wife’s company is the Pangu Sect?"
Wang Jianglong’s expression grew grave.
"There should be no mistake. During our investigation into the mastermind behind the scenes, we discovered that the enterprise causing trouble for your sister-in-law originates from Quancheng. The corporate legal person is named Wang Xingde."
"But when we looked deeper, we found that this Wang Xingde is merely a puppet. The one secretly pulling the strings is that woman named Lanxi whom you eradicated at the Zhu Family a few days ago."
"Oh?!"
This statement took even Ye Fei by surprise.
Wang Jianglong gestured for Ye Fei to hold off on his shock and continued.
"When we dug further, we discovered that Lanxi, when communicating with her superiors, often used a set of codes. After decoding them, we obtained this pattern."
Wang Jianglong’s eyes were deep as he tapped the screen.
Ye Fei’s brows shot up suddenly: "So you’re saying, the mastermind behind all this is the Pangu Sect?"
Wang Jianglong nodded: "Exactly. The Pangu Sect has Eight Venerables, and the one you captured last time, Ah Si, was the least in status and weakest among the Eight Venerables, the Yulu Venerate."
"Through the intelligence department’s investigation, we found that Lanxi is a major confidant of the Diku Venerable."
"Even though both are Venerables, whether in terms of overall strength or status within the sect, the Diku Venerable is not something that the Yulu Venerate can compare to."
"What’s more crucial is that the Diku Venerable has an eccentric character, acts mysteriously, and is adept in using nefarious and oppressive methods like venomous spirits, making him extremely tough to deal with."
"The war department in Northern Daxia once engaged with him at the border. In one night, an entire squad of elites was sacrificed, and their deaths were extremely tragic, the manner of their demise both bizarre and chilling."
"So this time, brother, you’ll have to be cautious. Rest assured, this issue arose because of our war department, we will not stand by idly, and we will provide all the assistance we can!"
Just then, a gust of wind whooshed by.
The dust it kicked up hit the side of the vehicle, making a pattering sound.
Ye Fei turned his head, his gaze becoming deep as he looked out the window.
A storm is brewing, and it looms over the building.
It seems like the storm from the Pangu Sect is coming specially for me.
