Chapter 256: Chapter 256 Breaking Doubts

The news of the Guo Family’s fall quickly spread throughout Sheep City, becoming a hot topic of discussion among people in the streets and among the social elite.

As the center of intelligence exchange, the Hundred Flowers Building naturally knew about the fall of the nation in real time, which really worried Third Master Mao.

"Perhaps the fall of the Guo Family is related to other matters?" A trusted subordinate tried to comfort Third Master Mao, attempting to ease his tense mind.

"Impossible, there’re no such coincidences in this world. Moreover, just now, I received a message. While there’s only sixty to seventy percent certainty, it’s enough to ring alarm bells for me." Third Master Mao’s true worry, in fact, was something else.

"What happened?" the trusted subordinate asked.

"Lin Pinchang... is dead." Since he was a trusted aide, Third Master Mao had no reason to hide anything from him.

"What! Lin, Lin Pinchang is dead!" The subordinate could hardly conceal his shock. Linking this series of events indeed gave off dangerous signals.

The earlier young man, he was no ordinary person!

"Right! About the investigation on him that I asked you to conduct, have you found anything yet?" Third Master Mao was desperate to know the identity Chen Wei hid behind, to find out which major figure he had offended.

He certainly didn’t want to end up dead without knowing how it happened.

"For now, there are no results, but I think it should be soon." It should be soon? That was nothing more than a hackneyed phrase to fend off questions. "I’ll urge them to speed up the investigation and report to you immediately once there’s news."

"Fine, you may leave." Third Master Mao waved his hand. He wanted to be alone to settle his mind and think of a foolproof plan.

A plan that would save his life without diminishing his trustworthiness in the eyes of the building master of the Hundred Flowers Building.

Bang!

His fist clenched tightly, smashing onto the desk, Third Master Mao’s eyes filled with bloodshot veins as he angrily said, "Damn Guo Fuxin, what kind of big trouble have you gotten me into? I was only a step away from becoming the next building master of the Hundred Flowers Building!"

...

Special Warfare Zone.

Chen Wei had changed into a set of special warfare camouflage wear, putting on a cap which immediately revealed his imposing aura.

Sky Wolf couldn’t help but praise, "You really deserve to be our leader. Wearing the uniform of a rookie gives off an aura that makes you look even more like the South-Guarding King than I do. You might want to tone it down a bit, lest people become suspicious."

"Cut it out, let’s not talk about that." Chen Wei raised his hand and looked at the Holy Maiden who was also inspecting her reflection in the mirror next to him. Frowning, he asked Sky Wolf, "Why is she dressed up too?"

"I was just worried that you might be too exhausted taking them on all by yourself, so I thought about finding you some help. With the Holy Maiden assisting us, we’ll surely have the upper hand!" Sky Wolf said enthusiastically.

"Heh, you really don’t hold back. If I weren’t here, she could send you to meet Lord Yama with a single sword strike."

No sooner had Chen Wei spoken than the Holy Maiden immediately said, "I wouldn’t do that. I know he’s your man; I wouldn’t go all out on your people."

Sky Wolf was about to be pleased when the Holy Maiden continued, "At most, I’d just cripple his limbs."

"Uh..." Sky Wolf was at a loss for words.

He knew the Holy Maiden was seemingly joking with him, but in reality, she didn’t want him getting too proud in front of Chen Wei. He had to stay modest.

"As for the Falcon Team, we’ll be counting on the two of you. Once the job is done, I’ll host a banquet to show my gratitude properly," Sky Wolf bowed deeply with due obedience.

"Alright, enough with the smooth talk, just take us there." Chen Wei hadn’t had a good fight in a long time and hoped that the Falcon Team would have some surprises in store for him.

Towards his own people, Chen Wei could show some leniency, but as for those from the Hawk Faction? They were not his own, so naturally, he would do whatever felt most satisfying to him!

Leading the way, Sky Wolf rubbed his arms, shivering as he said, "Why do I suddenly feel a chill!"

He glanced out of the corridor window, where the sun was shining brightly.

Shaking his head, he figured he must have been hallucinating.

Just as they stepped out of the building, Chen Wei and Sky Wolf were stopped by a crowd.

They volunteered enthusiastically, "South-Guarding King, those Falcon folks are too arrogant. We are willing to go and compete with them!"

"Even though we’ve only joined the Special Warfare Zone for less than half a year, I believe we can do it!"

"Yes! South-Guarding King, we also wish to contribute to the Special Warfare Zone. Please grant us permission!"

...

"This..." Sky Wolf turned to look at Chen Wei and then at the Holy Maiden before saying, "Regarding the selection for the exchange match, I’ve already made my decision."

"You’ve made your decision?" The leader noticed South-Guarding King’s gaze, looked at Chen Wei, then at the Holy Maiden, "Are you saying these two?"

"Fresh faces, never seen them before. Could they be even newer recruits than us?"

"South-Guarding King, no disrespect to them, but each member of Falcon Team is a cunning veteran. Sending two new recruits might end up with them hardly making it out alive."

"Please reconsider this!"

...

"In that case, why not choose the strongest among you to have a test of strength with me?" the Holy Maiden suggested as Sky Wolf was in a dilemma.

With the Holy Maiden’s fluent Great Xia language, no one doubted her identity anymore. Nowadays in Great Xia, marrying foreign wives wasn’t uncommon, and there were many who served the country in battle and brought back various awards and honors...

"This might not be appropriate," said He Tao, the captain of the team, wording his reservation very tactfully. After all, it wouldn’t be decent to say outright that it’s ungentlemanly to fight a woman, and winning would bring no honor.

"There’s nothing inappropriate about it. If you can defeat her, I promise to let you challenge Falcon Team," said Sky Wolf, feeling that dragging the issue any further was pointless.

"All right, let’s do this," agreed He Tao with a nod.

Afterward, everyone spread out in a circle, clearing a large arena for the Holy Maiden and He Tao.

Just as Chen Wei and Sky Wolf were confident in the Holy Maiden, He Tao’s comrades were equally confident in their team captain. Otherwise, why would they boldly seek to teach Falcon Team a lesson despite knowing the risks?

"My apologies!" He Tao made the first move, charging at the Holy Maiden and aiming for her arm, intending to put her down with an over-the-shoulder throw.

Suddenly, the view did a 360-degree flip!

"..." By the time He Tao realized what had happened, he found himself lying on the ground, facing up at the piercingly blue sky.

The others were dumbfounded, unable to believe what they had just seen. Their captain, He Tao, had been subdued by the Holy Maiden with just one move!

Before everyone had time to recover, Chen Wei stepped forward and extended his hand to He Tao.

"Thank you," said He Tao as he grasped Chen Wei’s hand and rose from the ground.

"If you doubt my abilities, I’m also willing to fight fairly. Who will it be?" Chen Wei swept his gaze over the crowd.

Everyone shook their heads in response, including He Tao, who was thoroughly convinced.

If the Holy Maiden was that formidable, then Chen Wei’s strength must be even more terrifying!

Just standing there, he exuded an air of calculated danger.
