Pounding the Yellow Dragon

"But they're very powerful, and there are many of them," April said hesitantly. However, from her eyes, Mu Yang could tell she genuinely disliked the Ophiuchus Legion, but was simply worried about their numbers.

Mu Yang smiled proudly and scoffed, "With those guys, no matter how many there are, they won't be a match for your big brother."

"On this planet, there aren't many people stronger than me anymore."

It wasn't that Mu Yang was arrogant; it was just the truth. Even compared to Master Roshi, apart from his vast experience which Mu Yang couldn't match, he felt he wasn't much inferior.

April's eyes lit up, remembering Mu Yang's incredible display of power yesterday. She clenched her fist and declared, "Then big brother must defeat all those bad guys!"

"Absolutely."

Over the next few days, April officially became a disciple of the Tianxin Style, learning the basics of martial arts. Upon learning that April's aspiration was to become a scientist, Aisafu and Mu Yang decided to find a school for her and arrange for her enrollment.

Meanwhile, to accommodate April's martial arts training, she was arranged to live at the Tianxin Style dojo at the foot of Da Qingshan.

It was a dojo for ordinary people, overseen by several Tianxin Style disciples who taught the locals some basic self-defense techniques. It served as a local base for the Tianxin Style.

At the same time.

In the eastern mountain ranges of Earth, the headquarters of the Ophiuchus Legion.

Commander Huai En gloomily reviewed the intelligence reports submitted by his subordinates, his brow furrowed slightly. It stated that Lusha, the person in charge of the southeastern region, seemed to have discovered something and then led a group of people into the Shaze Plains, but they never returned.

According to the reports from the follow-up teams, they found the bodies of Lusha and his subordinates there.

All the subordinates had been killed with a single blow; their firearms hadn't even been used, indicating they had no chance to resist. Lusha's head had a hole through it, pierced directly by a high-energy beam.

"Crack!" Slamming the report onto the table, Commander Huai En, in a foul mood, picked up his wine glass and downed it in one gulp.

"Who killed Lusha? Was it a powerful expert who happened to pass by, or another force with the same objective, like... people from the United Kingdom?" Huai En's expression was uncertain. If it were the former, it wouldn't be targeted. But if it were the latter, it would mean someone else was also after that blueprint.

However, under either circumstance, the blueprint he wanted was unlikely to be recovered, or rather, the hope of recovering it was extremely low!

"Useless trash. Not only did he lose his own life, but he also lost the blueprint," Huai En cursed Lusha's incompetence internally, but he still had to consider what to do next. If the United Kingdom or another force obtained that blueprint, it would be a significant disadvantage for their Ophiuchus Legion.

"Duolong, do you know of any powerful martial arts styles near the Shaze Plains?"

Commander Huai En asked his confidant.

The man named Duolong quickly recalled the information in his mind and shook his head, "The Shaze Plains is a very desolate place. There's very little human habitation within a radius of over a hundred kilometers."

"Ah, right. Further west, there's a very magnificent mountain range. It's rampant with monsters, and ordinary people can't get in. After crossing that mountain range, there is a martial arts school. However, Commander, those martial arts schools are very reclusive and possess extraordinary strength. They shouldn't be provoked lightly," the confidant named Duolong advised, emphasizing the strength of the martial arts schools.

Commander Huai En waved his hand, "Alright, let me think about it."

Anyone who could become the commander of an armed organization naturally had some brains. Huai En certainly knew the terror of martial arts schools; some powerful martial artists weren't even afraid of firearms, making armed forces ineffective against them. Moreover, Commander Huai En himself was a beast-kin martial artist, so he knew the capabilities of martial artists intimately.

However, the times were different now. With the advancement of technology, powerful weapons were constantly being produced, and the deterrence of martial artists against some organizations was declining.

But even with the slightest suspicion, Huai En wouldn't let it go easily. Of course, he wouldn't act personally.

"Someone!" Commander Huai En called out.

Soon, the door to the hall opened, and a soldier in a drab gray uniform ran in. "Commander, do you have any orders?"

"Contact Mr. Taobai, the assassin, immediately. Tell him I have a task to entrust to him and ask him to find a blueprint for me. Here's the specific address." Commander Huai En wrote down the address and handed it to his subordinate. If Mu Yang were present, he would have noticed that the address on the note was precisely the Tianxin Style's base in Da Qingshan.

Huai En's intention was simple: make a move and see what happens. If the blueprint was indeed there, that would be great. Even if it wasn't, it would just cost some money. For Commander Huai En, anything that could be solved with money was a trivial matter. He actually hoped the blueprint was there!

Upon hearing that he had to contact the ferocious assassin Taobai, the soldier's face turned pale.

"What, is there a problem?" Commander Huai En glared with his cold, deep eyes.

The soldier shivered as if being stared at by a demon and stammered, "No... I'll handle it immediately."

After saying that, he grabbed the note and scrambled out.

Commander Huai En let out a disdainful cold snort and lay down on his plush sofa for a brief, comfortable nap. Just then, a violent roaring sound echoed from a distance, a rumbling like artillery fire. The entire castle shook, and the chandeliers on the ceiling swayed precariously, as if about to fall at any moment.

"Is it an earthquake? No, someone is attacking us."

Commander Huai En's expression immediately turned grim. He walked out with a murderous aura and saw the guards outside urgently deploying, organizing a defense.

"What's happening?" Huai En asked, his killing intent palpable.

"Commander, someone has invaded the headquarters. Our forces are about to be overwhelmed," a guard said, holding his gun, his face ashen.

"Hmm?" Commander Huai En was stunned for a moment, startled by the phrase "about to be overwhelmed." Then, his ferocious face became even more savage, "Damn it, this is the headquarters of the Ophiuchus Legion! Who dares to invade here?"

"It's... a young man."
