A train was heading toward Jibei Province.
In one privately booked carriage sat a middle-aged man with unremarkable looks, but a certain air of approachability.
His leather shoes were polished to a shine, and he wore an imported formal suit that was not quite new but very neat. A hat lay beside his hand, and his hairline had receded somewhat.
Some implant body seams were visible on his face, something very uncommon in the Purity Faction.
Zhan Jiyue, a Fighter of the aspect of the gods. This was merely a body he inhabited, one of his many possessed bodies, but also the one that held the most memories.
Quite a few Purity Faction Fighters had already gathered in Jibei Province Central City, making it inadvisable to send another powerful Fighter there. Yet sending someone without sufficient standing would fail to demonstrate the importance headquarters attached to the matter. This time, they had therefore settled on a compromise and appointed him their special envoy.
The power of the body he possessed this time was restricted by agreement. It carried very little of his own abilities and, at most, could negotiate and relay information. His decision to come by train rather than airship further demonstrated his willingness to restrain his power.
At that moment, he was reading through Chen Chuan's file.
Though he had read it more than once during the journey, he still felt the same amazement as when he first saw it.
What a talent.
"No wonder headquarters finds this difficult," he murmured to himself.
This man had only joined the faction a short time ago, yet in just two or three years, he had not only rebuilt the nearly destroyed Jibei Province Branch, but also achieved a string of successes that many branch offices had not seen in years.
