"An ordinary person, even if they maintain their body in the healthiest condition, it becomes impossible for immortals to save them once they catch a terminal illness. The Zhenqin Corps serves as the antibiotics, yet they have to be cautious of this and that; itās driving me insane."
Wang Yetao also couldnāt help but complain.
"Prince Tuo has worked hard."
Jiang Fuyan bowed to the Zhenqin Corps, and the other governors slightly bowed as well.
Indeed.
Without encountering problems, nobody experiences the hardships.
In the past, martial artists even envied the Zhenqin Corps because they didnāt need to go to the wet environment, and they had special training locations prepared by the Divine Cabinet, allowing them to advance comfortably.
But who would have thought that the Zhenqin Corps would become a scalpel.
They must cut away the tumors of the Divine Land, without hurting its lifeline.
Compared to real knives and guns,
going undercover truly drains oneās energy.
The crucial thing is that this operation is ongoing, with a tumor being cut only for another to grow, leaving the Zhenqin Corps no time to rest.
"Everyone is risking their lives for the Divine Land, for Earth. No one has it easy; the division of labor is just different.
"Iāll personally visit the Miao Border Jungle soon. If no effective information is found, the Zhenqin Corps will immediately go to the major Martial Arts Academies to recruit volunteers to go undercover.
"I believe in the youth of the Divine Land."
Wang Yetao nodded to Jiang Fuyan.
This person is very decisive.
He made this long trip just to see for himself.
...
"Once the Zhenqin Corps finishes their investigation, every city should dispatch the Investigation and Arrest Bureau and Teacher Combat Institute martial artists to seal off the Miao Border Jungle, prohibiting anyone from entering or exiting."
Jiang Fuyan ordered.
"Governor, itās unrealistic.
"The Miao Border Jungle is vast, and too few people are being dispatched, making a complete lockdown impossible. With too many people leaving from each city, weāre also afraid itās a diversion tactic by the Yangxiang Sect."
Li Xingpei stepped forward with a worried face.
The incident at Cengyan Cityās shopping center is still vivid.
If it werenāt for the anomaly Su Yue causing trouble.
"Then do your best to block the main roads."
Jiang Fuyan slammed his fist on the table.
The Divine Landās martial artists are too few.
Thereās never enough manpower when you really need it.
In the wet territory, thereās not enough manpower.
On Earth, thereās never enough manpower as well.
"Everyone disperse.
"Wang Nanguo, donāt feel too guilty. Whether or not your intelligence was available, the Yangxiang Sect would not have let it go. If you want to contribute to the Divine Land, you should break through to be a Grandmaster as soon as possible."
As Wang Nanguo was leaving, Jiang Fuyan added.
"Thank you, Governor."
Wang Nanguo nodded with red eyes towards the Governor.
He is now at high-tier level five.
But without the bone cleansing in the past, breaking through to Grandmaster is extremely difficult.
...
"Wang Lu Feng, Iāll come to East Martial to find you tonight."
Leaving the Governorās office, Wang Nanguo directly called Wang Lu Feng.
Before Wang Lu Feng could speak, Wang Nanguo hung up the phone.
"Wang Nanguo, if you really want your son to go, I actually have no objections. Martial artists ultimately face danger; whether itās in the wet place or on Earth, nobody can have smooth sailing.
"But I still want to emphasize, there must be no coercion in any form.
"If itās in the wet environment, coercion doesnāt matter. At most, a person becomes a member of the suicide squad, killing one more enemy is a gain.
"But this time itās undercover, they must be willing."
After everyone left, Li Xingpei instructed.
"Donāt worry, I know what Iām doing."
Wang Nanguoās voice was hoarse.
"Wang Nanguo, this matter is really not your fault.
"Besides, you reported the intelligence to the Governorās Mansion, everyoneās discussed the results, it wasnāt unauthorized action. You donāt have to feel too guilty, itās not your responsibility."
The Hongyuan City governor also said.
"Yes, thank you, Governor, I understand."
Wang Nanguo nodded.
He walked straight towards the parking lot, where his driver was already waiting in the car.
"Iām sorry, the intelligence was provided by me. With so many lives, I must take responsibility.
"Among the level one martial artists who got into Wuda, Wang Lu Fengās strength is at the top and he is proficient in several combat techniques, making him the best fit."
Wang Nanguo sat in the back seat.
The car sped down the highway.
The driverās mood was heavy.
Not even during the time when Wang Nanguo was under investigation for dereliction of duty had he appeared so fatigued.
Moreover, the director was actually crying.
Wang Nanguo leaned back against the rear seat.
Tears streamed down, in the car, only in front of this old friend, could Wang Nanguo show his vulnerable side.
Facing his wife and children, facing his subordinates.
He is always the strong husband, father, director.
Among the strike team, there were his former brothers.
Of the three dead martial artists, one had married at the age of 40 and was an elder parent who had specially invited the Investigation and Arrest Bureau for a meal.
Wang Nanguo had also held the little baby, a very clever girl with big, round eyes.
But the child was not yet a month old.
The father had already become a cold corpse.
Recalling the smile of the child suffocated Wang Nanguo with grief.
The other martial artists who were captured were beheaded after suffering tremendous torture.
What kind of torment did they endure?
To let his son take risks, Wang Nanguo couldnāt bear it, really couldnāt bear it.
His only son.
Regardless of going to the wet environment, that is after becoming a second tier.
But he is only a first-tier, and already going undercover.
Any slip-up, and Wang Lu Feng would be obliterated, without even finding his body.
He canāt bear it.
Really, he canāt bear it.
...
East Martial.
Wang Lu Feng had just returned from West Martial.
His fatherās voice wasnāt right on the phone, and coupled with Wang Lu Fengās premonitions on the way, he always felt something had happened at home.
He sat at the school gate, waiting for Wang Nanguo.
What exactly happened?
...
Cengyan City Education Bureau.
Sun Zhiwei carried two bags of stewed meat, with another bag containing beer.
"Old Dai, I didnāt expect an accident to happen so soon. We said that when you came back, weād have a drink together.
"Why didnāt you come back?"
Finding a spot by the riverbank, Sun Zhiwei opened two cans of beer, downing one in one go.
A few days ago, Dai Yuegui had volunteered for the assault team.
Sun Zhiwei thought it was a small task and that he would return soon.
Who knew, the Governorās Office retrieved three corpses.
The rest had disappeared.
Dai Yuegui was on the missing list.
Although the Governorās Office didnāt say it clearly, Sun Zhiwei understood.
Itās pretty much hopeless.
Fighting against the Yangxiang Sect, those missing martial artists have one outcome, dying without a complete corpse.
"You, you quit your job at the Potential Class without good reason, you fool."
Under the cold moonlight.
A brawny man crying with two cans of beer.
...
Wanting to watch the Avengers, but I have to stay up late, which means catching up on sleep and delaying updates.
Forget it, I wonāt watch.
If youāve seen it, remember to spoil a little about it. The author is a spoiler for movie parties.
I like to read spoilers first, understand the ending, then watch the movie.
A fragile heart, canāt handle those jump-scare writers.
