Super Combat Soldier

80: Chapter 80 [Arriving at the Destination]

80 -80 [Arriving at the Destination]

Ye Tianchen was always someone who hated being restrained, whether in this life or during the apocalypse, his personality remained constant.

He preferred a life of being able to come and go as he wished, and if it weren’t for his desire to witness the powerful mercenaries and inscrutable Superpower Users abroad this time, Ye Tianchen would have never accepted Cang Lang’s request.

What Ye Tianchen hadn’t expected was that the person he was to protect turned out to be Liu Rumei, the woman whose entire body he had once seen by stealth.

Within his vague memories, Ye Tianchen could still recall Liu Rumei’s slender waist and jade-like buttocks, especially that white and large butt, which just looking at could make one’s desires swell.

Originally, Ye Tianchen absolutely did not want to have any more entanglements with Liu Rumei.

After all, both of their reputations had suffered a bit because of that incident.

However, Liu Rumei’s words had moved Ye Tianchen somewhat, and he also had some admiration for her.

As the number one beauty of Capital City, it would have been effortless for Liu Rumei to live a life of luxury and enjoyment.

Yet, this woman was no mere vase, possessing the drive of a strong and independent woman.

To complete the secret document exchange and enhance the military strength of China as a whole, Liu Rumei braved the risk of traveling to M Country for this transaction.

It was precisely this magnanimity and righteousness in her that deserved respect.

Liu Rumei’s arguments were reasonable and addressed Ye Tianchen’s suspicions.

The incident from those years ago was very likely to have been a setup by someone else.

Who exactly wanted to tarnish both Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei’s reputations with a single arrow?

Or rather, who was aiming to deal with the Liu family and the Ye family simultaneously?

In the end, Ye Tianchen decided to make a trip to M Country, where there was something he needed.

If he wanted to elevate his Superpower Realm, he would need much tougher and more brutal experiences.

After giving a scolding to Jiang Meng and Fei Yun, Ye Tianchen collapsed back into his seat to sleep, infuriating Jiang Meng and Fei Yun to the point where they could barely resist striking out.

The two of them were elite members of the Falcon Unit, and yet Ye Tianchen deemed them worthless, indeed stoking a fire in their hearts.

“Miss, let’s go over there and have some coffee!” Yong Chun Tai suggested with a smile upon seeing that Liu Rumei was also red-faced with alternating anger and paleness.

“This bastard, I really want to strangle him!” Liu Rumei fumed, stomping her red high heels with vigor, glaring at Ye Tianchen who was fast asleep on the side, and itching to rush over and beat him up.

Yong Chun Tai smiled slightly, shook her head, and then walked over to another dining table to continue drinking coffee.

Liu Rumei, having no other choice, pouted her sexy little lips in frustration and followed.

As for Jiang Meng and Fei Yun, they were already grinding their teeth in anger.

Had it not been for the importance of the mission, they would have already taken action against Ye Tianchen.

“This kid, I’m going to teach him a harsh lesson and beat him into a pig’s head,” Fei Yun said fiercely.

“There will be plenty of opportunities, focusing on the mission is what’s important,” Jiang Meng said with a smile.

Liu Rumei went to the dining table, sat down huffily, and Yong Chun Tai handed her a cup of coffee, saying with a smile, “Miss, don’t be angry; completing the mission is what’s important.”

“Yong Chun Tai, I really don’t understand why Cang Lang chose this guy.

With his refusal to comply and unwillingness to follow orders, if we encounter a powerful enemy attack, it will be hard to come out unscathed, let alone complete the secret document exchange,” Liu Rumei said, somewhat worried.

Yong Chun Tai smiled, sipped her coffee, and listened.

She had been protecting Liu Rumei for more than ten years, watching her grow up, and had come to view Liu Rumei as her own granddaughter.

That was why she had imparted the essence of Yong Chun Fist to her so willingly.

The mutual animosity between Liu Rumei and Ye Tianchen was inevitable.

Even if Ye Tianchen’s peeping on Liu Rumei bathing was a setup and not intentional, it wouldn’t immediately dissolve the grudges and misunderstandings between them.

One could imagine how a girl, a peerless beauty, would feel being seen naked by a man, if she wasn’t in a romantic relationship with him, how could she face him?

“Miss, from what I see, if we want to successfully exchange the secret documents this time, we have to rely on Ye Tianchen!” Yong Chun Tai said in a low but earnest voice to Liu Rumei.

“This… Yong Chun Tai, do you really think so highly of him?

He’s really unreliable, just like he was back then…” Liu Rumei asked with a touch of blush.

“Miss, although Ye Tianchen may be somewhat frivolous and may appear unserious and unreliable, once he gets serious, he will undoubtedly become an unstoppable Demon King.

Our M Country trip this time is no less than entering a tiger’s den, aiming to acquire those secret documents.

To succeed, we must rely on Ye Tianchen,” Yong Chun Tai said solemnly.

Liu Rumei was taken aback.

Yong Chun Tai had been by her side, protecting her for over ten years.

Although ostensibly their relationship was that of master and servant, Liu Rumei had always seen Yong Chun Tai as her mother-in-law, as her own kin, never as a subordinate.

Hearing these words from Yong Chun Tai, Liu Rumei knew that Yong Chun Tai had a high opinion of Ye Tianchen and was even placing the bet for the success of this mission on him.

“Yong Chun Tai, even if Ye Tianchen’s martial skills are strong, I can’t imagine they could surpass yours.

I believe with you by my side, we can definitely complete the mission,” Liu Rumei said with a smile.

Yong Chun Tai glanced at Liu Rumei and shook his head with a smile, “Miss, even though I just exchanged a move with Ye Tianchen and we seemed evenly matched, that was a sneak attack.

To tell the truth, I could feel the immense energy latent within Ye Tianchen, like a dormant dragon hiding within.

Once awakened, it would be unstoppable.

I might be able to fight him with all my strength, but I absolutely couldn’t defeat him.”

“Yong Chun Tai, aren’t you being too modest?

With your skills, it’s hard to find many in China who could fight you as equals.

No matter how powerful Ye Tianchen is, he definitely can’t beat you,” Liu Rumei disagreed with a smile.

“Miss, to be honest, Ye Tianchen is stronger than me,” Yong Chun Tai said earnestly, nodding at Liu Rumei.

Liu Rumei was utterly shocked, staring at Yong Chun Tai with her eyes wide open in astonishment.

Since childhood, Yong Chun Tai had always protected her, and she naturally knew how powerful he was.

Not to mention being the top martial artist in China, being among the top five was without question.

But hearing Yong Chun Tai admit to being less skilled than his opponent was a first for Liu Rumei.

After all, Yong Chun Tai was the premier master of the Ancient Martial Sect’s Yong Chun Fist, as well as its 92nd Sect Leader.

His power was unfathomable.

Having practiced Yong Chun Fist for nearly half a century and having faced several formidable enemies in over a decade of protecting Liu Rumei—defeating them all—it’s safe to say that Yong Chun Tai’s reputation held a deterrent force in China, a country where few could match his level.

So how could Liu Rumei not be astounded when he declared he was not as skilled as Ye Tianchen?

“This…” At a loss for words, Liu Rumei turned and glanced at the slumbering Ye Tianchen in his seat, looking sleazy, and wondered if they really had to rely on this bad guy for the mission this time.

“Miss needn’t worry.

In my opinion, since Ye Tianchen has agreed to stay, this mission will surely be accomplished,” Yong Chun Tai reassured her.

“Yong Chun Tai, do you really trust him that much?” Liu Rumei found it strange.

This was the first time Yong Chun Tai had met Ye Tianchen, and they only exchanged one move.

Yet, Yong Chun Tai had such trust in Ye Tianchen, she couldn’t fathom what made him so exceptional.

“It’s not about trust; it’s about strength.

He has such strength!” Yong Chun Tai also glanced at the Snoozing Ye Tianchen and spoke.

The conversation between Yong Chun Tai and Liu Rumei, filled with Liu Rumei’s astonishing disbelief and skeptical gaze towards Ye Tianchen, came to a close without Jiang Meng and Fei Yun overhearing.

Jiang Meng and Fei Yun were elite members of the Falcon Unit, with formidable skills themselves.

They were dispatched by the Falcon Unit’s leader, Yan Long, to protect Liu Rumei.

Whereas Ye Tianchen was sought out by his rival, Cang Lang.

Yan Long and Cang Lang were mortal enemies, like fire and water, incompatible.

Hence, Jiang Meng and Fei Yun had enmity towards Ye Tianchen, who likewise had no fondness for them.

Maintaining a balance, to not let it affect the mission, required deft handling.

Early in the morning, around seven o’clock, the helicopter carrying Ye Tianchen and his company landed on the outskirts of Washington.

As Ye Tianchen, Liu Rumei, Yong Chun Tai, Jiang Meng, and Fei Yun deboarded, three black Lincoln limousines waited on the grass, ready for their arrival.

The leading figure was a middle-aged man with a deep scar across his face, stretching from the corner of his left eye down to his jawline.

A little bit closer, and his left eye would have been destroyed.

Yong Chun Tai and Liu Rumei led the group, followed by Ye Tianchen, while Jiang Meng and Fei Yun remained on high alert, scanning the surroundings to preempt any sudden attacks.

The three bodyguards—Ye Tianchen, Jiang Meng, and Fei Yun—performed their duties impeccably.

With Jiang Meng and Fei Yun trained and cautious, trailing behind and continuously scanning the area, the heavily overgrown environment would offer no cover in case of an ambush, making them easy targets.

“The two of you blockheads, stop looking around,” Ye Tianchen said, turning to Jiang Meng and Fei Yun.

“There’s no ambush.

The Liu family’s estate here in Washington seems to be capable of not being followed by the enemy.”

“Humph, who do you think you are?

A clairvoyant?

Just because you say so, there isn’t an ambush?” Fei Yun retorted contemptuously.

“Don’t talk big.

If we encounter a strong enemy and you end up wetting your pants, that won’t be a good look,” Jiang Meng also mocked.

“The pair of fools should keep your energy up; there’s bound to be a big fight tonight.”

Ye Tianchen ignored Jiang Meng and Fei Yun.

As soon as they landed, his Superpower Perception had spread out.

He was aware of everything within a kilometer.

Knowing that there were no ambushes and that it was absolutely safe, he didn’t bother with them.
