"I'm not too sure about the details as well. We have lost contact with Xiangyu quite some time ago! I'm not going to lie to you since you have known this matter! Actually, I'm going to travel with a few comrades of mine to look for Xiangyu and Ms. Lin! Don't worry! It is not as serious as you think it is!"

"I have to go with you guys!"

"I'm afraid that is not possible! This mission is highly classified! I'm breaking the rules just telling you about it! Inviting you to come along with us is a big no!"

"Can you stop talking crap! Bring me along with you if you are my friend!" said Chen Xiaobei determinedly.

Cao Zhenyang was smart enough to know that Chen Xiaobei was adamant about it. He also knew that Chen Xiaobei would unfriend him if he refused to let him go! Clearly, Elder Cao valued Chen Xiaobei and Xiangyu a lot. If not, he would not gift the one and only Wolong Mansion to Chen Xiaobei. Xiangyu would definitely cut off all the ties with Thunder Kirin Special Forces if he knew that they wronged Chen Xiaobei on purpose. The consequences of losing a powerful elite like Xiangyu was simply unimaginable.

"I don't think I can bear the responsibility of losing Xiangyu! I'm going to send the address to you right now! You can come to us now! Let me get the general's permission for you to come along with us!"

"Okay!"

After receiving the address, Chen Xiaobei departed to the designated location promptly.

.....

Considering that Xiangyu and Chen Xiaobei were extremely close to each other and Chen Xiaobei was the one that located Lin Xiang and Lin Nan, the general allowed Chen Xiaobei to tag along with them without any hesitation. All of them then traveled to the airport. There was a small private airplane waiting for them when they arrived at the airport.

The boarding process was rather smooth. When the airplane finally took off, Chen Xiaobei let out a sigh of relief. He then calmed down and proceeded to observe all those people around him. Other than Cao Zhenyang, there were another three men and one woman traveling with him.

After Cao Zhenyang noticed Chen Xiaobei was eyeing on his comrades, he went ahead and introduce them to him.

"This is Yan Congming, one of the top four heroes of Thunder Kirin Special Forces! He is given the nickname, Jade Kirin and is the team leader of this secret operation!"

Chen Xiaobei then turned around and looked at him once more. He looked like he was in his thirties with sword-shaped eyebrows and a lean, muscular body. With that, he was worthy of the title Jade Kirin!

Ding!

[Cultivation: Early phase of True Nirvana stage. Health: 30,000. Combat power: 30,000!]

After scanning him with the Netherspirit Battlescouter, Chen Xiaobei was slightly disappointed. Initially, he thought that his combat power would be higher than his. Calling him the Jade Kirin of Thunder Kirin Special Forces actually meant nothing! With his cultivation, it was impossible that he could provide any aid to Xiangyu.

However, it was not an easy task to achieve True Nirvana Stage in Jianghu. With that being said, Yang Congming was probably the most powerful person Thunder Kirin Special Forces could send to help Xiangyu. Upon thinking about that, Chen Xioabei could not help but shake his head. He was glad that he insisted to tag along with them.

"Why are you shaking your head? Are you looking down on me?"

Frowned, Yan Congming was not pleased by Chen Xiaobei's body language. It seemed that he was a prideful person. Earlier, he thought that Chen Xiaobei would go to him and greet him. He was furious seeing Chen Xiaobei shaking his head while looking at him.

"I'm not looking down on you! I shook my head because of something else!"

With his current cultivation, he had all the right in the world to look down on Yan Congming. However, Chen Xiaobei felt it was not a good time to argue with him. That was why he decided to take a step back.

"Hmph!" Yan Congming harrumphed. 

He then looked to the other side and ignored Chen Xiaobei. Sensing the tensed atmosphere, Cao Zhenyang changed the topic quickly.

"These two are Feng Xubin and Fang Kangyin. Their cultivations are similar to mine. Two of them are my good brothers!"

"Hello."

Chen Xiaobei nodded at them to show them that he was friendly.

"Oh okay."

Unfortunately, the two of them did not show much interest in Chen Xiaobei. Clearly, they were not going to be friendly toward Chen Xiaobei. It seemed like Yan Congming was the backbone of the team. Going against him was equivalent to going against the entire team. Upon seeing that, Cao Zhenyang did not know what to do anymore. Chen Xiaobei was after all an outsider. No one would approve of what he did even if he was part of the team now. Offending Yan Congming would result in one being boycotted by those that were under him.

"The last person here is Fang Yuqiong! She is our Shimei! Big fan of Brother Yan!"

"Brother Zhenyang! Why did you tell him stuff like this? I'm not that close with that kid!"

"Ugh… Sorry… I shouldn't have said that…" said Cao Zhenyang in frustration.

He could not help but blame Chen Xiaobei for causing this internal conflict. Now that Chen Xiaobei had offended Yan Congming, he would have to become the middleman to please both sides! Upon seeing that, Chen Xiaobei could not help but laugh. After checking them out with the Netherspirit Battlescouter, all those three people's cultivations were on the same level with Cao Zhenyang – pinnacle phase of Qi refining stage and 20,000 combat power! To Chen Xiaobei, they were as weak as ants! It looked like all of them were working together to boycott Chen Xiaobei. None of them thought that Chen Xiaobei any intention of working together with them. He would go his separate ways after he found out about Xiangyu's and Lin Xiang's whereabouts.

"Brother Cao, can you tell me where we are going now?" asked Chen Xiaobei.

"Why are you asking this question? Just shut and follow us! Considering that not even I have stepped foot on that place before! I don't think you have heard of the place! So, it's pointless for you to ask any questions!" said Yuqiong.

"Yuqiong! Can you stop talking? Mr. Chen is my friend! For the sake of me, can you please stop what you are doing now?!"

"Hmph! I'm just telling the truth!"

She was in love with Yan Congming for quite some time. Naturally, she would not give up the opportunity to show off in front of him!

"Alright! If you are not going to listen to what I have to say. For the sake of Xiangyu, can you please stop talking? Mr. Chen is after all Xiangyu's Shidi!"

"Xiangyu is a powerful man! For that, I respect him! Kid! You better pray that we will be able to look for Xiangyu as soon as possible! Without him, you are just another piece of trash!"

Upon hearing that, Feng Xubin and Fang Kangyin smiled scornfully at the same time. As for Yan Congming, he did not even bother to look at Chen Xiaobei. Clearly, all three of them had just agreed with the thing that Fang Yuqiong just said. Cao Zhenyang was frustrated being stuck in this awkward situation. He was going to offend someone no matter which side he helped!

"Brother Cao! I'm asking you a question! Can you hear me?"

Behaving calmly, Chen Xiaobei was not bothered by what they said to him. To him, they were just a group of ants that he could crush easily with one foot.

"Oh…"

Taken aback, Cao Zhenyang said, "We are going to Paradise Island!"
