After a while, Chen Xiaobei asked, “So?”
Jiang Ziya put down his phone, looking like he was about to throw up.
“Lei Zhenzi confirmed that things are exactly as you said…”
Chen XIaobei said, “You have to accept that you are never going back to the heavenly realm! You might want to consider sticking with me!”
“No, even if the Primordial Lord of Heaven is angry and reprimanded Queen Mother, it doesn’t necessarily mean that I won’t be able to return!” Jiang Ziya said, “I’ve already geared myself to go back and ask for forgiveness. Unless the Primordial Lord of Heaven kicks me out of the Chanism, I will never betray my faction!”
Chen Xiaobei nodded and said, “I like people who are loyal and I will respect your decision! Only time will tell how things will pan out! Before you get your confirmation, I will protect you!”
“There’s no need for that!” Jiang Ziya said, “You only need to send me back to China! What danger would I be in? I don’t have any enemies.”
“Sometimes, danger comes from your own people!” Chen Xiaobei warned.
“That’s impossible! No matter how angry the Primordial Lord of Heaven is, he is still my Sifu!” Jiang Ziya was adamant. “The worst that could happen is that I get kicked out! There is no way there would be any sort of retaliation! Don’t try to sow any discord between us! I will not fall for it!”
“Let me say something!” Six Ear Macaque pursed his lips and said, “Based on Chanism’s nature, they would be more than willing to kill their own subordinates!”
“You stupid monkey! You just asking to be beaten up aren’t you?” Jiang Ziya barked.
“Hehe! As a matter of fact, I am! Come on then, show me what you’ve got!” Six Ear Macaque said nonchalantly, “Don’t forget that you don’t have your Deity Lashing Whip with you right now. You are just an ordinary person!”
“So, what if I don’t have the Deity Lashing Whip? I won’t allow you to slander Chanism’s name! Or else, I will have to teach you a lesson!” Jiang Ziya was riled up. He refused to believe that his own faction would do such a thing to their own people!
“Alright! Elder Jiang! Don’t you say another word! We’ll stop it here!” Chen Xiaobei looked thoughtful. “I am also just assuming. No one knows exactly how things will turn out!”
“At least you know a little bit about humility! Or else, you would’ve been given a good beating! How can I not know my Sifu?” Jiang Ziya harrumphed, rolling up his sleeves.
“Jiang Ziya really is a stubborn chump!” Six Ear Macaque rasped, “He didn’t even think about all those things that his Chanism did! Just because the Primordial Lord of Heaven bullshit about benevolence and morality doesn’t mean that they really practice it!”
“As a long road tests the strength of a horse, so time reveals a person’s true heart! Sooner or later, the truth will be unveiled!” Chen Xiaobei said, “Don’t you go and pick a fight with Elder Jiang! We should be protecting him!”
Six Ear Macaque nodded and said, “I understand. You want to take him under your wing, right? I will watch over him!”
“That’s good.” Chen Xiaobei said, relieved.
“Do you need me to do anything else? Like badger Elder Jiang?” Six Ear Macaque licked his lips.
“No.” Chen Xiaobei chuckled, as if he knew something. “Like you said, Chanism’s true nature. We won’t have to do anything. They will force Jiang Ziya out themselves!”
Six Ear Macaque laughed in his heart and said nothing more about it.
“Alright! I will have to leave again. Call me if there’s any problem!”
As he spoke, Chen Xiaobei summoned the Somersault Cloud.
“Xiaobei!”
Seeing that Chen Xiaobei was about to leave, Li Xiang quickly ran over and asked, “It’s so late already, where are you going? We still haven’t discussed our plans in detail yet!”
“You don’t know anything about the Divine Sovereign Sect, so, I will have to figure this out on my own. Don’t worry. I will make sure I do what I promised you.”
Chen Xiaobei assured, then disappeared into the dark skies on the Somersault Cloud.
……
In the Imperial Household Agency Hospital.
A few minutes ago, White Tiger Enigmatic Ninja was sent here, straight into the operating room.
Outside the ward, Phantom Rain and her men were finally able to breathe.
“Today was too dangerous! White Tiger is really lucky, he only had a brush with death. Black Tortoise will never be able to come back…”
Phoenix Enigmatic leaned against the wall, pale-faced and dismal.
“You can say that again.” Green Dragon Enigmatic Ninja let out a long sigh. “If we haven’t seen it with our own eyes, who would’ve imagined that there is such a formidable creature here on earth!”
“Now is not the time to talk about that!” Nikkawa Uchu snapped. “Chen Xiaobei is dead. The Poseidon Operation fell flat and now we won’t be able to get our hands on Professor Lin’s research result. How am I supposed to explain myself to the Americans?”
Phoenix Enigmatic Ninja retorted, “So what? The most they would do is put up more economy sanctions! It’s nothing as grievous as our Tenshou’s Four Enigmatic Ninja losing one member and the other mutilated!”
“Hmph! You still don’t know, do you?” Nikkawa Uchu retorted, “Your Master Phantom Rain is an American’s S.H.I.E.L.D agent! She was in charge of catching Chen Xiaobei! Now that Chen Xiaobei is dead, she will be interrogated and either punished or convicted!”
“Is… Is that true?”
Phoenix Enigmatic Ninja looked back and forth at Phantom Rain and Green Dragon Enigmatic Ninja.
“That’s true…” Green Dragon admitted. “This was a secret mission involving the American’s state secret! The security clearance stops at my level! Operation Poseidon was actually the Americans’ master plan!”
“But why?” Phoenix Enigmatic Ninja was trying to wrap his around all this new information. “The US Navy dominates the four seas, has ten fleets of the world’s best carrier battle group, and boasts of a multitude of allies. Why would they need Operation Poseidon?”
“You don’t know…” Green Dragon Ninja shook his head and said, “The Chinese Navy has advanced almost overnight. They already have two Aircraft Carrier in possession and are on their way to building three more! If Professor Lim’s research is successful, I’m afraid that the throne of the Ocean Ruler will change hands!”
“Is Professor Lim’s research really that powerful?”
Phoenix Enigmatic Ninja seemed a little hesitant.
NIkkawa Uchu said, Professor Lim is researching a super material, that is undetected by radar! Once applied to warships, submarines and fighter jets, they would be ‘invisible’! Think about it, in complete stealth mode, by then we were able to spot their ships, they would already have reached out front doors! Tell me that’s not powerful!”
Phoenix Enigmatic stood stunned as he digested the facts.
That would be the quintessence of stealth technology!
Their enemies would be caught with their pants down!
No wonder the Americans want in on it!
“Needless to say, Chen Xiaobei’s death meant that the failure of Operation Poseidon. That is my responsibility. I will return to the S.H.I.E.L.D to ask for forgiveness!” Phantom Rain finally spoke, “But, Nikkawa Uchu, what you really need to think about is, could you bear your responsibility toward the Tenshou?”
