CHAPTER 471: CHAPTER 470 YE XIN’S SUSPICION (4/5)

Ye Xin felt a scorching energy flowing through her body, almost to the point of bursting her apart.

Only after stopping the combat did Ye Xin feel the energy quiet down with her heartbeat.

When she saw a group suddenly appear and block Shangyao and the others, she was very surprised.

Because she hadn’t sensed anyone approaching.

In the instant these people appeared, Ye Xin sensed that they were very strong.

But when Ye Xin saw the woman standing at the door, facing Shangyao, she realized these were not members of the Dragon Tooth Squad, which piqued her curiosity.

In her impression, she didn’t know of any squad, other than the Dragon Tooth Squad, that could be so strong and have female guards!

When she heard Yang Chen shout the name ’Meng Po,’ she involuntarily shivered all over.

Those words reminded her of someone.

A woman who was internationally renowned and fearsome in reputation!

It is said that Meng Po is an exceptionally beautiful woman who once was besieged by ten top-class assassins but effortlessly annihilated them all before departing.

Moreover, Meng Po almost never fails in her missions.

Even though she rarely acts, when she does, it’s always high-commission and high-difficulty tasks!

Her hundred percent success rate makes her a hot figure.

Because of her beauty, she’s even a topic of conversation at the tables of faction forces.

But the real reason Meng Po is so famous is... she’s from Asura Hall!

The title of Asura isn’t one anyone can bear.

Once, someone impersonated the title of Asura, and the next day they were hung on a cliff, their photo spread across the deep web.

In faction forces, Asura is a sacred title and inviolable.

The Asura King in Asura Hall is a god-like figure, who makes people’s blood run cold.

However, on the Lijia Continent, mentioning the Asura King causes fear among all faction forces, but when mentioned before the people of Lijia Continent, they are worshipped like deities.

Ye Xin once specifically investigated the Asura King.

In her opinion, the Asura King is likely a person with a split personality.

Treating enemies with extreme cruelty, never leaving any survivors, acting decisively, fierce and ruthless.

Yet treating the people of Lijia Continent like heroes in Flame Country folk tales, robbing the rich to give to the poor, kind and charitable, many have received the Asura King’s generosity.

At the same time, the huge faction forces on the Lijia Continent are extremely protective of Flame Country’s affairs.

Several times when members of Flame Country’s peacekeeping guards encountered accidents, they were rescued by those from Asura Hall.

Also, whenever someone targeted people from Flame Country, traces of Asura Hall often appeared.

Furthermore, Asura Hall let it be known that those who dare attack Flame Country are enemies of Asura Hall!

Now widely circulated among faction forces is the ’Flame Country Forbidden Zone,’ partly due to Flame Country’s security and guard capabilities, and partly because of the Asura King.

Because internationally, people would rather offend the investigation bureau than the Asura King.

Thus, some even say Asura Hall is composed of Flame Country people!

Because Asura originates from Flame Country, Meng Po also comes from Flame Country; it’s believed Asura Hall must be a group of Flame Country people.

But those who’ve seen members of Asura Hall say they aren’t Flame Country people.

The layers of mystery have never allowed Ye Xin to truly uncover the true face of Asura Hall.

So, Asura Hall continually captured Ye Xin’s soul, and whenever she received information about Asura Hall, she would investigate immediately, never ceasing.

Now, hearing the name Meng Po, Ye Xin immediately became sensitive.

Along with this image of Meng Po, it certainly forced Ye Xin to think deeply.

After Shangyao and the others left, Ye Xin linked her arm through Yang Chen’s and asked: "Dear, who is this Meng Po..."

"My friend!" Yang Chen patted Ye Xin’s shoulder and said: "Go take care of your grandfather!"

Ye Xin hesitated for a moment and gave Meng Po a deep look.

Meng Po was also staring at Ye Xin, especially when she saw Ye Xin holding Yang Chen’s arm, her hand gripping the dagger so tightly it squeaked, her eyes constantly shimmering with cold light.

Meng Po saw Yang Chen approaching, took a deep breath, and withdrew her gaze.

Ye Xin also turned around to care for her grandfather.

Coming closer, Yang Chen looked at everyone and asked, "Where are the others?"

Meng Po said solemnly, "I let them prepare for backup, Master! Why did you let them go?"

She felt they could completely annihilate them!

Yang Chen said solemnly, "You’re not their match!"

"How is that possible?" Meng Po said, "Even if all these people are kung fu masters, their long robes surely impede movement. In combat, they absolutely couldn’t be our opponents! Also, we have the advantage in numbers, they definitely can’t escape!"

"Naive!" Yang Chen snorted coldly and scolded, "Do you truly think power is as simple as you see it? The person standing before you, at the moment you shout, could kill you a hundred times! He just didn’t act! If he did, you wouldn’t even be able to block a single move!"

"This is simply not..." Meng Po still didn’t believe it and wanted to refute.

But as soon as she spoke halfway, her hand was empty, and a dagger appeared around her neck.

"Where now?" Yang Chen asked.

Looking at the dagger in Yang Chen’s hand, feeling the cold on her neck, Meng Po’s pupils suddenly contracted, shocked beyond words.

She had no sense of Yang Chen’s movement, yet her hand was empty; there was no reaction time at all, and the dagger was already held to her neck!

Too fast!

She couldn’t resist at all.

Meng Po said solemnly, "I... understand!"

Yang Chen retrieved the dagger, handed it back to Meng Po, his expression serious, "So, I tell you now, you still have a long way to go! Don’t think that because I let you manage Asura Hall, you can graduate now. In my eyes, you’re always the little girl from the first day I taught you, who couldn’t even stand the horse stance steadily! My orders are above all; you must do what I say, execute, and never privately alter or issue any other orders!"

Hearing this, Meng Po involuntarily bowed her head.

Yang Chen said coldly, "If I know there’s a next time, I won’t let you off lightly!"

"Yes!" Meng Po agreed with her head lowered.

"Now, I require you to take half of the people back to the base, just in case! Dongzi and Yang Cao must go with you!" Yang Chen said, looking at Yang Cao: "Once you return, continue researching that bug, find an antidote, and help Master Ye solve his physical problem; it’s urgent!"

"Yes!" Yang Cao nodded, speaking solemnly.

"Also you!" Yang Chen stared at Meng Po, "You must lead the team!"

"Why?" Meng Po said defiantly, staring at Yang Chen.

"It’s an order!" Yang Chen glared angrily.

"But..." Meng Po sought permission.

"Obey orders!" Yang Chen reprimanded.

Meng Po fell silent for a moment.

"Your duty!" Yang Chen said sternly, "is to obey orders!"

Tears welled up in Meng Po’s beautiful eyes, standing straight before Yang Chen, saluting and shouting, "Yes!"

"Go back!" Yang Chen watched tears streaming down Meng Po’s beautiful eyes, a flicker of pain flashing in his eyes but instantly hidden, commanded: "The others return to the post and wait for my further orders!"

"Yes!"
