Su Heiming listened carefully to his subordinate's report.

"News has arrived from the Mohadi Domain. Apart from Lord Ban Ze, who returned safely, everyone else was wiped out. Lord Ban Ze seems to have suffered a severe mental blow. After returning to his tribe, he sank into despair and shut himself away. He has remained silent about what they encountered. Their King summoned him several times, but he refused each time on the grounds of illness. This time, they sent a new group to fulfill their agreement with us. However, two of them quietly left the group as soon as they entered the Federation. I immediately sent men to follow them. We have now determined that their target is very likely Tang Hanpei."

"Tang Hanpei?" Su Heiming narrowed his eyes, his gaze dark and sinister. An air of extreme danger quietly rose around him. The intelligence officer standing before him grew tense, hardly daring to breathe.

"Yes! I dared not act on my own authority. Please give us your instructions, sir!"

"What are they going to Tang Hanpei for?" Su Heiming looked thoughtful.

"Their intentions remain unclear," his subordinate hurriedly replied in a respectful voice.

"Hmph. Are they trying to keep a foot in two boats?" Su Heiming murmured with a cold laugh. "Still, we can't let them have their way."

After a moment's thought, he said gravely, "Tang Hanpei is the greatest enemy of my life. If he joins forces with that lot from the Mohadi Domain, hmph! Intercept those two, pry their mouths open, and hear what they have to say. That fellow in the Mohadi Domain is no simple character."

"Yes!" His subordinate accepted the order solemnly.

"The others are behaving themselves, I take it?" Having settled one matter, Su Heiming was in quite a good mood.
