Chapter 1558: Chapter 607: Setting Off Officially

The sudden sound of the flute stirred the negative emotions of everyone in the cave, bringing thoughts of the most despairing moments in their lives and nearly pushing them to collective suicide. However, these people were all god-level experts, their spiritual power extraordinarily strong. With just a brief moment of bewilderment, they sensed something was amiss. They calmed their minds and regathered themselves, breaking free from the lure of the flute’s melody and returning to the real world.

The group then saw an Asian man dressed in ancient attire appear at the cave’s entrance. He was a frail old man with white hair and beard, moving forward with a long flute pressed to his lips, playing as he walked. The eerie sound of the flute from earlier was his creation.

The old man’s flute melody had a significant negative impact on everyone present, and he initially seemed quite smug about it. However, when he saw the crowd in the cave glaring at him angrily, he suddenly realized something was wrong. His actions appeared to have provoked public outrage. Just as the old man was about to lower the flute, his gaze landed on Yan Fei amidst the crowd. His melody abruptly shifted direction, carrying an even stronger mysterious power through the soundwaves, enveloping Yan Fei entirely.

Though Yan Fei’s spiritual power was already very strong, this mysterious power still affected him. His mind started spinning, his vision blurred, and his body stumbled as he nearly fell to the ground. Standing next to Yan Fei was Wo Shi Shui, who was also caught in the wave of mysterious power. Suddenly, Wo Shi Shui’s body disintegrated into countless bats that spread out across the cave...

Yan Fei was unfamiliar with this mysterious sound-based power, which resulted in a brief moment of bodily loss of control. However, he quickly activated his spiritual energy and instantly neutralized the flute’s influence on him. Just as Yan Fei prepared to counterattack, the bat swarm formed from Wo Shi Shui unexpectedly reassembled into the shape of an enormous loudspeaker. Each bat opened its mouth, emitting piercing screams, and a surge of intense ultrasonic waves blasted through the loudspeaker, striking the old man playing the flute.

Explosions erupted across the old man’s body. Wo Shi Shui’s ultrasonic attack was incredibly potent, forcing the old man to stagger backward repeatedly. When the ultrasonic attack finally ceased, the old man had already retreated outside the cave, looking utterly disheveled. His clothes were shredded entirely, leaving him resembling a beggar.

After completing the ultrasonic attack, Wo Shi Shui’s massive bat swarm coalesced again, transforming back into human form. The old man stared at the reformed Wo Shi Shui, his eyes filled with shock; he hadn’t expected to fall so decisively in his first confrontation here. Nearby, Beast gazed enviously at Wo Shi Shui, who could freely switch between a human form and a swarm of bats. In contrast, Beast’s transformation into a beast prevented him from regaining his human appearance...

Captain China snorted coldly and said disapprovingly, "Mr. Hong Jitong from South Korea, I told you before that our mission must remain covert. To avoid detection by the Destiny Organization, even the ancestral land shut down its mechanical monkeys. Yet, here you are, walking around outside playing your flute and creating all sorts of anomalies along the way. Have you even considered that your actions might expose our plan?"

It turned out the old man in ancient attire was from South Korea. He was the only god-level expert from that country, named Hong Jitong, a rare psychic god-level expert. It remained unclear why Hong Jitong seemed to target Yan Fei intentionally, but he’d quickly lost the confrontation, looking quite pathetic after Wo Shi Shui’s counterattack.

Hong Jitong had been reclusive for many years, adhering to outdated worldviews rooted in past beliefs. He thought of himself as a deity capable of roaming the world unchallenged, only to discover that the world had changed dramatically since his time. His psychic abilities now faced clear counters, leaving him outmatched as soon as he made a move against Wo Shi Shui.

Hong Jitong initially intended to redeem himself through Wo Shi Shui, but upon seeing the enraged expressions of everyone present—each one immensely powerful—he didn’t dare to provoke them further. He timidly said, "Seeing so many god-level experts gathered here filled my heart with joy, so I couldn’t resist playing a melody. Please, do not dwell on it."

After saying this, Hong Jitong quietly found a stone nearby and sat mutely upon it...

Yan Fei noticed that Captain China seemed acquainted with Hong Jitong and asked softly, "Captain, do I have a grudge against this old man? Why is he targeting me?"

Captain China responded, "This old man was one of the founders of South Korea’s Taekwondo. He’s incredibly self-assured, always considering Taekwondo the most formidable martial art in the world. Do you remember your early days? Back then, you rose to fame by defeating Taekwondo experts. Because of you, South Korea’s dream of spreading Taekwondo worldwide crumbled. Naturally, the founders of Taekwondo harbor resentment toward you and want to trouble you."

Yan Fei scoffed and said, "I’ve been on Dream Island all this time. If this old man genuinely wanted to reclaim Taekwondo’s honor, he could’ve challenged me there directly. Yet, after all this time, he’s remained silent, acting like a cowardly turtle. He only dares to ambush me now."

Captain China said, "Perhaps he lacks confidence in beating you, or maybe he fears the arrangements you have on Dream Island. Today, surrounded by god-level experts, he knew there are plenty of people here with grudges against you. That’s why he dared to launch his attack—because even if he failed, his life wouldn’t be in danger."
