The flames in the fireplace burned fiercely, and the silent Mr. Sang, with an air of arrogance in his sharp gaze, looked at the middle-aged man before him.

He slowly spoke, “This plan was flawless. I sent both Lin Jun and He Hu, and yet we still failed?”

“I’m sorry, Mr. Sang, we are still searching for the reason… I suspect the Old Gods Association has members we are unaware of.”

Before the middle-aged man could finish, Mr. Sang ruthlessly interrupted, “I don’t want to hear your suspicions. Give me a definite answer. Do you understand what it means to lose two of the Thirteen Protectors?”

The middle-aged man lowered his head; he was currently kneeling before Mr. Sang, thankful that the soft carpet spared him from too much discomfort.

But the next moment, his hair was grabbed fiercely by Mr. Sang and pulled towards the fireplace, the blistering waves of heat roasting his face. Just as a scream was about to burst forth, he heard Mr. Sang say coldly, “Shut up.”

The middle-aged man could only tremble and keep his mouth tightly shut.

All that remained was Mr. Sang’s cold and merciless words reaching his ears, “Based on this operation, I could kill you right now, and the higher-ups wouldn’t dare to let out a peep! You’d better give me a reasonable explanation, or else… you and your family at headquarters are as good as dead.”

“I… I understand, Mr. Sang.”

“Get out.”

The door closed again.

Mr. Sang closed his eyes, his legs draped with a black blanket, appearing completely unlike the violent man of moments before.

But it was undeniable that with the loss of two more generals, the strength of his Heaven God had diminished yet again!

The people sent from headquarters didn’t even heed his commands, which was extremely irksome.

Mr. Sang’s grip tightened, then slowly released.

Before long.

There was a knock at the door.

“Come in.”

The visitor entered the room, exuding a murderous aura.

“Mr. Sang.”

Mr. Sang sighed, “I know your anger. I understand because I have also lost loved ones.”

“This matter must be avenged with blood!”

The sword in Lin Ye’s hand even emitted a resonant hum.

Mr. Sang slowly lifted his head, “Has your Sword Intent advanced again?”

Noticing Lin Ye’s red-eyed appearance, Mr. Sang felt helpless inside, “Enough. I can only say we have lost too many elites, and we are at a significant disadvantage in intelligence.”

“I want vengeance!” Lin Ye’s mind was consumed by this single thought.

Mr. Sang felt somewhat frustrated, “Da Peng City is so large; how will you find them?”

“As long as you permit me, Mr. Sang, give me half a month’s time,” said Lin Ye.

“Half a month is too long…” Mr. Sang stroked his brow, slowly adding, “Ten days at most.”

“Thank you, Mr. Sang!”

Lin Ye bowed with clasped fists and respectfully withdrew.

…

That night, rain fell upon Da Peng City.

Very few people in the Jianghu even knew about the skirmish on Gezhi Road.

The blood that stained the ground was washed away by the rain… A street corner nearby was already cordoned off by the Night Patrol Department.

The showdown under the cloak of night eventually concluded with Sky God International swallowing their own broken teeth in defeat.

Even Federation personnel were unclear about who the battling parties were; the reports provided by the Night Patrol Department were sparse in details, as the main focus remained on tracking large criminal organizations like the Starfire Army.

…

At the back mountain of the Jiang family.

Pei Jinye was weaving through the woods.

Ever since he acquired He Hu’s Extraordinary Abilities, he found his legs seemed to have been fitted with perpetual motion machines, his speed significantly increased.

The knife in his hand thrust out. With his increased speed, his blade strikes became even more fierce and swift.

“It seems like it’s been a long time since I’ve had dealings with the people from Heaven God.”

“Lin Jun, Lin Ye… once suppressed by these brothers, but now…”

The corners of Pei Jinye’s mouth slowly curled into a smirk.

“Not killing me back then means you’ll each be killed by me, one by one!”

Raindrops fell on the Giant Python’s head. It looked up, puzzled, and tried to nuzzle closer, but Pei Jinye unceremoniously pushed it away.

“Hiss (eat).”

“No food, go sleep.”

“…”

…

Returning from the back mountain woods to his dwelling, Pei Jinye realized his phone had many messages.

11:54:01 PM, Silver Art: “Got home?”

11:54:02 PM, Silver Art: “The Elder scolded us all… but luckily, you were there in the end.”

11:55:01 PM, Silver Art: “Thinking back, we haven’t seen each other for a while. You’ve really become so strong…”

Five minutes later, Silver Art: “Why aren’t you responding to me?”

At that moment, as Pei Jinye picked up his phone, the latest message from Silver Art arrived: “I just asked Hong Luo, and she said I’m being bothersome and went to sleep after closing her door. Do you find me bothersome, too?”

Pei Jinye typed with both hands: “It’s late, go to sleep.”

Silver Art replied immediately: “You haven’t slept yet!”

Pei Jinye: “About to sleep.”

Silver Art: “Alright, good night. Remember to brush your teeth after eating late at night, remember to turn off the light (if you are afraid of the dark, then don’t set the light so bright), and also, also… Did you get all that?”

A minute later…

Silver Art: “???? Where are you?”

Another minute passed.

Silver Art: “Okay, I get it. Even the Elder says sometimes I’m bothersome. Good night.”

Ten minutes later.

Pei Jinye put down the phone and saw Silver Art’s message.

He replied: [Busy, just saw it. Everyone has their own way of life, just walk the path that’s most comfortable for you without caring what others think. Sleep tight.]

Just as he put his phone down, a “buzz” sounded, and a message arrived instantly.

[Wow, rare for you to say so much at once, I forgive you, goodnight, off to sleep.]

Pei Jinye looked at the message and smiled wryly, then put the phone down.

Before long.

“Big Dream for Thousands of Autumns” began to operate.

…

…

…

“Bang!”

“Great boxing! Let’s go again!”

In the early morning, the sun shone just right on the training field, where an Ancient Martial Artist with a bright smile, wearing a tank top, was sparring back and forth with Pei Jinye.

Not far away, Brother Bi, Zhou Ye, and Brother Kui brought over some small stools, each with a different expression on their face.

“Youth is great indeed.” Zhou Ye was genuinely envious.

He himself was physically weak, otherwise, he wouldn’t dare to take on those tasks with off-the-chart danger levels.

Brother Kui was itching to give it a try.

Only Brother Bi, the lazy one, was yawning, thinking that fighting was the most uninteresting thing.

“No more fighting, no more fighting.” The Ancient Martial Artist sat back, grabbed a water bottle, and gulped it down, “Have to save some energy for catching people later.”

“Does your team Seven also have a big mission?” Zhou Ye perked up immediately upon hearing this.

The Ancient Martial Artist turned to look at him. This kid seemed not to have much savvy on a regular basis, but in reality, he wasn’t stupid. Faced with such a question, he just feigned ignorance and laughed.

Zhou Ye cursed silently, feeling somewhat restless. He turned to the nearly sleeping Brother Bi, “Brother Bi, team Seven is starting big missions again, we’ve got to get rolling.”

“…”

“…”

…

“It’s all your damn curse!”

Brother Bi was “indignantly” cursing throughout the drive to the mission location.

Zhou Ye smiled beside him, trying to suck up.

It could only be said that the mission came at just the right time.

Brother Bi didn’t want to chuckle with him and changed the subject, “The mission is a hostage rescue… There are three robbers, their identities are not confirmed yet, but according to intelligence provided by the Night Patrol Department, there are three of them… one with Extraordinary Abilities with the Fire Element, one with mist control, and one whose ability is still unconfirmed… anything else unclear?”

“A hostage rescue needs our intervention?” Pei Jinye curiously asked.

Zhou Ye replied with a smile, “Sometimes it happens. If the Night Patrol Department can’t handle it, they pass it to us. The team leader probably gave it to you because he knows your abilities. Don’t worry, the rear is covered by me and Brother Bi.”

Pei Jinye: “???”

Zhou Ye felt a bit embarrassed under Pei Jinye’s stare and bashfully said, “Don’t look at me that way, Jinye. Of the three of us, who else has such high combat value besides you? To put it broadly, Brother Bi’s marksmanship is unparalleled, apart from you two, who else could handle it?”

“Damn, I’ve never seen anyone so shameless,” Brother Bi couldn’t help but retort, then looked at Pei Jinye, “Jinye, you’ll act with me later. My marksmanship is… okay, I guess. I’ll take care of long-range, you handle close combat. Zhou Ye, can you stop messing around and do something useful?”

“I’m on it, I’m on it.” Zhou Ye took out a little black ball from his pocket, “Got this jammer from the black market, how about this?”

Brother Bi arched an eyebrow slightly.

Pei Jinye, as if clueless, asked, “If such a device that can jam Extraordinary Abilities exists on the market, why aren’t they mass-produced to equip us?”

“Materials are scarce, and very few circulate on the market. What is available might just be privately forged by Alchemists, and the quality can’t be assured. I heard big Investigation Teams have them, we shouldn’t even think about it,” Brother Bi shook his head.

Zhou Ye resentfully fiddled with the black ball in his hand, “The quality… should be okay, I got it from an old acquaintance.”

“A knife from an acquaintance can be especially sharp,” Brother Bi said, curling his lip.

After the vehicle reached the cordon, they arrived at the rear under the guidance of the Night Patrol Special Forces.

Before getting out of the car, Brother Bi handed over the black specialized balaclava, “For public operations, be discreet; after masking up, get out of the car and immediately switch to battle mode two… anything not clear?”

“No.”

“No.”

“Check your gear; after the check, disembark.”

Although Brother Bi often slacked, when it came to action, he was decisive and efficient, not wasting a single unnecessary effort.

The Night Patrol Department’s Special Forces had already received the notification.

“The target is inside this factory warehouse; there are thirteen high school students inside on a weekend trip. The kidnappers want cash and have already injured one of the students. Their families are also here.”

“Where’s the negotiation expert?”

“They’re ready and will buy you a maximum of four minutes to make the hit, but that’s in the optimum scenario. The other party is very vigilant.”

Brother Bi frowned, “Four minutes.”

“We can only say sorry, the three of them are not ordinary people, and it seems they are familiar with our drill. This might be the limit on our side,” the Night Patrol said with a wry smile.

That’s when Pei Jinye asked, “What are their demands?”

The person from the Night Patrol shook his head, “They haven’t said, they’re just asking to have supplies sent over first.”

Brother Bi quickly assigned tasks.

Pei Jinye and Zhou Ye didn’t say anything more and started to act.

Adroitly, Pei Jinye climbed up the side wall of the warehouse.

…

Soon after, Brother Bi’s voice suddenly came through the earpiece, “Jinye, can you hear me? The kidnappers have made a demand. They want to see Cai Weiqian from the Black Mountain Association… We’ve identified one of the kidnappers, one of them is the sister of the previous Ma Gang Leader Xiong Qi…”

“…”

Someone with a tiny battle record, what does it have to do with me, Pei Jinye!

Pei Jinye squinted slightly.

But with the atmosphere already set up like this.

Lady, if you don’t die, it’s tough to wrap this up.
