Chapter 593: Chapter 592: [Divide and Conquer]

Ye Tianchen and his team split up to carry out their respective missions. He and Li San headed to Military Base No. 12, while Wang Jie, Zhang Tian, and Zhang Di were tasked with destroying Military Base No. 13. The objective was the same as when they destroyed Military Base No. 11: to neutralize threats beforehand and to exert pressure on the M Country, letting them know not to obstruct their rescue of Ling Shuanghe and Ling Yuxun.

Many might think Ye Tianchen’s plan was naive and misguided. How could a few individuals confront the M Country? Even with their formidable personal strength, they couldn’t possibly take on the entire M Country military, could they? It was true that with his current level of power, Ye Tianchen couldn’t accomplish that, but escaping would be simple for them. More importantly, even though M Country placed great importance on the Ling family matter and tried everything from threats to temptations to keep the Ling family’s assets within the country, they would surely not mobilize a vast number of personnel indefinitely just for the Ling family. The whole nation’s military couldn’t possibly be deployed for this; if they did, the consequent losses would be greater than the losses caused by the Ling family relocating out of M Country. It would be a lost cause, and should unrest occur or other nations take advantage of the situation, M Country would be in a state of irrecoverable distress. With this in mind, Ye Tianchen dare to plan an attack on the three major military bases in M Country’s New York.

Hence, Ye Tianchen had approached the Liu family and obtained detailed information about the three M Country New York military bases from Liu Rumei, all in preparation for rapid destruction.

Brother Bao, Lin Duan, Hu Long, you three head to the Ling family estate first and be sure to stay safe," Ye Tianchen solemnly instructed Bao Tianglong and the others. "I suspect the guards at the Ling family estate aren’t actually M Country Marine Corps soldiers. These troops are too weak for us; M Country wouldn’t make such a blunder, so it’s likely that the estate is housing a number of masters. The apparent information is merely a smokescreen put out by M Country. Be extra cautious!"

"Understood, Big Brother!" they all nodded in response.

"Also, those of you heading to the Ling family estate, you must obey Brother Bao in all matters," Ye Tianchen continued seriously. "Brother Bao is authorized to exercise the right to expel you from the ranks of the Thirteen Heavenly Kings. And remember, once you arrive at the Ling family estate, don’t engage in a direct confrontation; there could be many masters hidden there. Just find a way to enter the estate!"

"Yes!"

Bao Tianglong, Hu Long, and Lin Duan were the first to leave on motorcycles. Bao Tianglong rode solo, while Hu Long rode with Lin Duan; Hu Long’s left arm had been pierced by a knife and was still bleeding. Immediate bandaging was necessary, and since he was the youngest amongst the Thirteen Heavenly Kings with the least experience in actual combat, his injury was the most severe. Ye Tianchen was slightly worried, which was why he had Hu Long depart first to the Ling family estate with Bao Tianglong and Lin Duan.

Those remaining were Ye Tianchen, Li San, Wang Jie, Zhang Tian, and Zhang Di. Their mission was to demolish Military Base No. 12 and No. 13. This was no easy task; it truly posed a risk of life and death. The information provided by Liu Rumei indicated that Military Base No. 11 was the weakest, with its leader Witt being very cunning—much more than the person in charge of Military Base No. 12, General Balock. Libi, from Military Base No. 13, appeared to be a powerful Superpower User, but it was unclear what type of superpower he possessed or the extent of his unbelievable abilities.

"Brother Li San and I will head to Military Base No. 12," Ye Tianchen announced. "Wang Jie, Zhang Tian, and Zhang Di, you will take on Military Base No. 13. What I can tell you about Military Base No. 13 is this: their person in charge is named Libi, and he may also be a powerful Superpower User. Be very careful once you get there, and don’t assume he’s just a general with no ability to fight back!"

"Don’t worry, Big Brother," Wang Jie said with a chuckle. "Even if he is a Superpower User, he couldn’t possibly be as strong as you. I’ll make sure to take him down!"

At that moment, Ye Tianchen merely gave Wang Jie a cold glance. Feeling a chill throughout his body and an uneasy sensation creeping in, Wang Jie quickly shut his mouth, bowed his head guiltily, and dared not make another sound.

Ye Tianchen addressed Wang Jie with annoyance. "I told you before we came here; unauthorized actions are not permitted. Your lack of discipline and failure to follow commands almost cost others their lives. It was in trying to save you that Brother Li San lost his index and middle fingers..."

With his head bowed, Wang Jie didn’t dare to speak, and everyone observed Ye Tianchen getting angry and showing his temper for the first time, which startled them. Despite his youthful appearance in his twenties, his authoritative anger could genuinely intimidate many.

"Let it go, Big Brother. This incident isn’t entirely Wang Jie’s fault; the people at Military Base No. 13 are just too sneaky," Li San interjected.

Ye Tianchen glanced at Wang Jie, then said, "Our group of Thirteen Heavenly Kings will only grow stronger and larger, with more life-or-death battles to come. Without strict discipline, how can we grow? We will deal with your indiscipline and rule-breaking once we return to Capital City."

"Yes, Big Brother," Wang Jie said meekly. "I was wrong this time, and I’m willing to accept the punishment."

"Alright, let’s each head out. Military Base No. 12 and Military Base No. 13 are both very strong, and they’re also not far from each other. Whoever finishes the sabotage mission first should support the other side, just in case any unforeseen events occur," Ye Tianchen thought for a moment before saying.

Wang Jie, Zhang Tian, and Zhang Di were the first to leave. Ye Tianchen sighed and shook his head. He never wanted Wang Jie to come along on the mission to America in the first place. Although Wang Jie was very strong, he was impulsive and uncontrollable, especially in battle, where he was like a wild horse, completely out of control. Their main mission in coming to New York in America this time was to rescue Ling Shuanghe and Ling Yuxun, the grandfather-grandson duo. Their primary task was to save people, not to fight. Ye Tianchen was now somewhat regretful. How had he ended up agreeing to let Wang Jie come to America as well? He just hoped the latter wouldn’t cause any more trouble.

"Brother, in fact, Wang Jie is absolutely loyal to the Thirteen Heavenly Kings and his strength is also very impressive. Don’t be mad at him. Everyone makes mistakes," Li San said with a smile.

"Brother Li San, do you think I don’t know that? Wang Jie is also a talent. If he could be as calm and composed as Wuxue, it would truly be a blessing for our team of the Thirteen Heavenly Kings," Ye Tianchen said, shaking his head.

"People always grow and change. I was just as violent and impulsive as Wang Jie in the past. After being the head steward in the Liu family for nearly twenty years, I’ve finally become more tempered and stable. Wang Jie will be the same in the future," Li San encouraged.

"Let’s hope so. But without a bit of discipline, the team of the Thirteen Heavenly Kings just won’t work. Wang Jie must be punished, otherwise, what will we rely on to manage such a powerful team in the future," Ye Tianchen nodded and said.

Li San also nodded. After all, nations have laws, families have rules, and without regulations, nothing can be accomplished properly. Without a bit of constraint, people will only become more relaxed and sloppy, and it might be too late to enforce discipline later on.

Ye Tianchen and Li San then each got on a motorcycle and left. They were heading for Military Base No. 12. Especially in the busier cities where traffic congestion is common, two-wheeled vehicles are the best means of transportation, capable of weaving through alleys and narrow paths.

Meanwhile, inside Military Base No. 12 in New York, America, Balock was thoroughly enjoying the services of a blonde beauty. Unlike Witt from Military Base No. 11, who was notorious for being impotent, Balock was famous for his vigor; he felt uncomfortable if he didn’t bed a few women a day. Of course, this was related to the drugs he researched, which kept him in a state of excitation.

Knock! Knock! Knock! The sound of knocking came from outside. Balock didn’t call for the woman servicing him to step aside. His subordinates were used to it by now. Many had seen him in this state and thought nothing of it. To these military men, women were just outlets for venting their emotions.

"Come in!" Balock said contentedly in English.

An armed American soldier entered, standing respectfully at the door and began to report, "General Balock, there is..."

"Wait, let me guess," Balock interrupted with a smug smile on his face, whether delighted from his plans potentially succeeding or from the ministrations of the woman below him. His expression was utterly licentious.

"General..." The American soldier tried to speak again but was cut off by Balock.

"I’m sure Witt’s plan has failed..." Balock said with confident laughter.

"No!" The American soldier, sweating from anxiety, dared not interrupt. Someone who had once talked over Balock had been beheaded on the spot.

"Then I’m sure the Black Widow was victorious, that she has taken the members of the Death God squad and killed those Huaxia men?" Balock furrowed his brows and continued to ask confidently with a smile. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, welcome to qidian.com to cast your recommendation votes and monthly tickets.
