"Hmm?"
The elderly man who suddenly appeared seemed particularly surprised that the young man in front of him could block one of his moves.
One must know, within the Yanhuang Soul, young people who could deflect his surprise attack were as rare as phoenix feathers. Even the strongest among the Four Heroes of Yanhuang, Shen Junjie, would be pushed back several steps. But who would have thought that this young guy in front of him stood steadily in place and, judging by his calm eyes, seemed completely unfazed by the attack.
'Whoosh.'
A hidden weapon came flying. The elderly man quickly dodged by spinning away.
Wait, that hidden weapon wasn't aimed to hit him; it had just grazed his shoulder. Clearly, the opponent had no intention of injuring him.
So strong… this young man is truly strong.
Xiaofan, having just startled the elderly man, dared not linger in the fight. His figure flickered as he attacked the elderly man again.
Excellent… the elderly man silently praised, stepping forward and channeling his Inner Strength to meet Xiaofan's attack.
'Bang'
Their palms connected, and the elderly man felt as if his powerful Palm Force struck a soft cushion, offering no point of impact. Shocked, he saw the young man in front of him suddenly utilize his Palm Force to leap backward, lightly tapping the shoulder of a Yanhuang Soul warrior before disappearing swiftly from everyone's sight.
Such speed is truly bewildering. A large crowd of people could only watch helplessly as the target vanished.
"Continuous Palm Technique? Isn't that Mr. Ren's specialty?" The elderly man looked at his own palms in a daze, muttering to himself. He then walked slowly to a large tree in front of him, looking at the hidden weapon embedded in the trunk: "What is this? A toothpick?"
At this moment, inside Fan Lingtian's office.
"Report."
"What are you reporting about? Just say it quickly."
"We've lost sight of the intruder again. His speed is incredible, vanishing in just a blink, and even Elder Shan couldn't stop him."
"What? Even Younger Brother Shan couldn't stop him?" This news also left Fan Lingtian momentarily stunned.
The Elder Shan just mentioned is one of the elders of the Yanhuang Soul, and everyone knows of his formidable strength. If even he couldn't stop this person, then one can only imagine his strength.
"Elder Fan…" Just then, Shen Junjie ran in again.
"Hmm."
"Eight action squads, three special combat teams, couldn't find him. The entire Yanhuang Soul is in chaos. Almost everyone is involved in the capture mission." Shen Junjie said helplessly.
"More than a hundred people couldn't catch him? Any casualties?" Fan Lingtian asked again.
"Twenty-three lightly injured. The most seriously injured one was knocked unconscious. Another one took a spill." Shen Junjie was also somewhat surprised.
You have to understand, only inflicting light injuries during a hundred-person blockade is much harder than incapacitating the opponent. However, this person who infiltrated the base handled it very well.
"Hey, this guy doesn't seem hostile, but we don't know what his purpose is. There's nothing valuable over at the tech museum, and even if it's money he wants, someone with such skills probably doesn't have much need for it, besides, wanting money wouldn't bring him to a place like this. Tonight has truly been a lesson for everyone in Yanhuang Soul. On a brighter side, it's good to humble those overly arrogant folks." Fan Lingtian was the only one who could still smile in such a situation.
"But Elder Fan, this still affects our base's prestige significantly." Shen Junjie said worriedly.
"What time is it now?" Fan Lingtian asked.
"About half an hour to dawn."
"Let this guy stir up some more trouble. If it doesn't work out, we'll have to get the other elders involved."
Without figuring out the intruder's identity, Fan Lingtian couldn't easily issue the kill order. After all, Yanhuang Soul has plenty of talent, and if snipers and special ops teams are called out, no matter how skilled the intruder is, he'd only become a sitting duck.
'Ring ring ring.'
At this moment, the phone on the desk suddenly rang.
Fan Lingtian walked over slowly, picking up the vintage-looking handset casually.
"Hello, Fan Lingtian."
"Elder Fan, this is the first line of defense. There's someone named Lei Xiaolei claiming he used to be a member of the organization, and he says he knows someone who's infiltrated the base."
"What? Get him on the phone." Upon hearing this, an anxious expression suddenly surfaced on Fan Lingtian's face.
"Hello, Principal."
"Xiaolei… Alright, I think I know who this guy is. Why is he here?" Fan Lingtian suddenly had an epiphany, understanding instantly.
"Looking for Shen Zuimo."
"That brat, he's just like his grandfather, would do anything for a woman. You come in first." Fan Lingtian ended the call, smiling despite himself, then looked at the people in his office.
"Elder Fan… what's going on? Don't tell me it's…" Shen Junjie had a guess when he heard the name Lei Xiaolei.
"I'll bet you he climbed up from the cliff side, believe it or not…"
"Huh?"
"Order the lifting of the alert. Everyone resume their duties. Junjie, come with me, let's go see this brat." Fan Lingtian said, shaking his head as he muttered while walking out of the office.
Shen Junjie blinked a few times, from the cliff? This guy is really taking risks. But his dedication to his sister, doesn't it show even more clearly?
Meanwhile, in a special dormitory block within the base. It's special because the front door is equipped with a password lock and fingerprint detection function. Moreover, every dorm room has its own custom password lock.
Only seven people lived here. One of them is exactly the person Xiaofan is painstakingly searching for, Shen Zuimo.
At this moment, Shen Zuimo was awakened by another nightmare. However, this had become her habit. The alerts and noise outside the dormitory made it impossible for her to continue resting, so she opened the door and stepped into the hallway to look around.
There must be something happening in the base. But she hadn't received any notification; if anything happened, her brother would definitely inform her first.
A faint brightness appeared suddenly over the valley; daybreak was nearing.
Beneath her stunning appearance, her expression remained cold as snow. Her graceful figure slowly turned back. She returned to her dormitory to freshen up, preparing to welcome a new day of training.
As she closed the door, Shen Zuimo suddenly felt it being held open by something. Before she could turn around, a familiar yet strange voice came from behind.
"Zuimo..."
