Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 443: Chapter 442 [The People Who Despise Ye Tianchen]

”We only know from the information we possess that this time, many experts from the North Star Blade Sect have infiltrated, and their strength is no less than that of Hei Mian and his group. Their main target is naturally you. As for their whereabouts, we can’t find them!” the top leader said, glancing at Ye Tianchen.

Ye Tianchen was startled by the information the leader revealed; he hadn’t expected that the North Star Blade Sect would dispatch so many experts just to deal with him, equalling Hei Mian in strength, which meant they were not inferior to the warriors of the Heavenly Gang Level in China. Did these little Japanese devils respect him, Ye Tianchen, that much?

Was it really out of respect for him, Ye Tianchen, or was it because Sato’s status was too high? Sato was killed by himself this time, and that had caused a huge sensation among the North Star Blade Sect in Japan. Or could it be that this group of North Star Blade Sect people, having dispatched so many experts, had other bigger schemes in mind whether they were taken advantage of the situation or not?

At this moment, Ye Tianchen glanced at the leader and felt that the old man was indeed somewhat tired. After all, he was nearly seventy years old, managing countless matters every day. It was already three o’clock in the deep night, and he hadn’t slept yet; it was indeed not easy.

”Old man, can I take care of this North Star Blade Sect matter?” Ye Tianchen asked.

”This matter is not only about you, but also about our nation’s dignity. Therefore, my stance is that none of the North Star Blade Sect people infiltrated in the Capital City can be allowed to return alive; we must strike them hard!” the leader suddenly said with gusto.

”Don’t worry, I will eliminate them all!” Ye Tianchen said earnestly.

”As for the matter with the Ling family, I know you and Ling Yuxun grew up together like childhood sweethearts. If you’re dealing with the North Star Blade Sect, can you, my boy, stand by idly?” the leader suddenly asked with a smile.

”What? Old man, you guys are pretty well-informed, huh? Can’t I have a bit of privacy?” Ye Tianchen asked somewhat gloomily.

The leader looked at Ye Tianchen and said seriously:

”First of all, we are not intentionally prying into your privacy. This came to our knowledge only after the Ling family’s incident. Moreover, I want to tell you, my boy, whether you like it or not, or whether you like being constrained, you must remember that you are Chinese. When necessary, you have to exert efforts for the country and the people!”

Upon hearing the leader’s words, Ye Tianchen nodded gloomily and couldn’t help but smile wryly:

”Old man, you don’t have to be so serious; it makes me uncomfortable. With our relationship, you just need to command, hehe!”

”Don’t talk to me about relationships; do I dare command you, my boy? Aren’t you just about to say, because of our relationship, promote your father a few more ranks?” the leader seemed to have seen through Ye Tianchen completely and said a bit irritably.

Ye Tianchen stuck out his tongue, thinking to himself: old ginger is hotter indeed; as soon as he had a notion, the leader saw through it. This old man truly commanded respect. Better not to play too many tricks with them. The leader was right; one must act according to their position regardless of their past identity, plus he didn’t have many requests for them anyway.

But for the sake of his family, Ye Tianchen still hoped to take advantage of this opportunity to gain some benefits. Not everyone was like him, a cultivator indifferent to fame and wealth. Ordinary people still hoped to rise to positions of power. Even Ye Tianchen’s father was no exception. Such was the influence of environment; just like the people on Earth nowadays, born into an environment devoid of Spiritual Energy and unable to cultivate, and molded by education and ideology from a young age, they lacked any notion of cultivation.

”Hehe, old man, you can’t say it like that; I still respect you very much...”

”Ye Tianchen, what are you doing? Keep your distance from the leader...”

Hei Mian, standing by the side, finally spoke out loudly as Ye Tianchen hadn’t finished speaking yet because Ye Tianchen had walked up next to the leader and even placed his right hand on the leader’s shoulder as if they were close buddies, which in Hei Mian’s eyes showed a lack of respect, hence he couldn’t help but yell.

The leader waved his hand to signal Hei Mian not to be agitated. He understood Ye Tianchen very well; gentle approaches didn’t work on him, and harsh measures were useless too, only a combination of soft and hard tactics might persuade the young man. As for some of Ye Tianchen’s habits, naturally, they couldn’t demand of him what can be expected from a soldier, even though Ye Tianchen had also been a soldier, albeit an utterly unqualified one, the leader had long since reviewed Ye Tianchen’s file and couldn’t help but laugh and shake his head.

”Since you said yourself that you want to deal with that group from the North Star Blade Sect, I’ve decided to send a few warriors of Heavenly Gang Level to assist you. I think together with your Thirteen Heavenly Kings, there shouldn’t be much problem. As for the matter with the Ling family, make your own decision after you see Ling Yuxun,” the leader said.

”I can handle this matter myself; old man, don’t interfere. You have countless matters to attend to; there are many other things to be busy with!” Ye Tianchen chuckled and said.

”You young man... haha!” the chief chuckled as he shook his head.

”Ye Tianchen, with our Heavenly Gang Level warriors willing to aid you, why do you keep making excuses?” Hei Mian’s face, already dark, grew even darker as he spoke displeased.

Ye Tianchen glanced at Hei Mian and yawned before speaking:

”To deal with the North Star One-Blade School crowd, my Thirteen Heavenly Kings and I are more than enough. You Heavenly Gang Level warriors are so busy, better to attend to other meaningful matters. Besides, old man, I need real-time information; you know my intelligence channels aren’t developed!”

”Alright, once we spot the trace of the North Star One-Blade School, I will have someone inform you immediately. You can go with Hei Mian to meet the Ling family father and daughter now!” the chief nodded and replied.

Ye Tianchen didn’t say much but nodded and walked out of the chief’s office with a smile. Hei Mian was quite displeased. He hadn’t anticipated that with the help of several Heavenly Gang Level warriors himself included, Ye Tianchen would reject the assistance; wasn’t that too arrogant? Did he believe that he and his Thirteen Heavenly Kings alone could eliminate all the masters from the North Star One-Blade School? Even if Ye Tianchen’s power had greatly increased, Hei Mian didn’t think he had that capability, surely he was just bragging and acting pretentiously.

As Ye Tianchen and Hei Mian walked out of the chief’s office, a man in plain military uniform appeared from a side door. He had a square face, was around 1.8 meters tall, about 45 years old, exuding righteousness with an imposing aura. Although his rank wasn’t apparent, his emergence from the chief’s side door was enough to suggest his extraordinary status. He stood beside the chief, looking at the now closed office door and said indifferently:

”Chief, is that Ye Tianchen?”

”Yes, what do you think of this young man?,” the chief asked with a smile.

”His strength is decent, and he has great potential, but he still doesn’t catch my eye!” the square-faced man stated coldly.

”Man Tian, are you being too highbrow?” the chief pondered before asking.

”It’s not that I’m highbrow; it’s just that I simply look down on that young man. He doesn’t even regard Heavenly Gang Level warriors, so does that mean he doesn’t regard me, the captain of the Heavenly Gang Level warriors, either?”

Man Tian spoke sternly, his eyes sharp. He was a man who had battled his way through the war, naturally implying extraordinary strength. He had become the captain of Huaxia’s strongest single combat force, which spoke volumes. Moreover, the righteousness and killing intent he emitted were indeed terrifying.

”Although Ye Tianchen may be somewhat capricious and unreliable, he is capable in his endeavors and a very promising young man. I believe he is not a bad person!”

This was the chief’s assessment of Ye Tianchen, yet it somewhat displeased Man Tian. It wasn’t that he had issues with the chief, but rather that Ye Tianchen’s refusal to accept help from the Heavenly Gang Level warriors upset Man Tian. Being the captain of the Heavenly Gang Level warriors, doubting their members was akin to doubting him, Man Tian!

No one had ever dared to question the power of the Heavenly Gang Level warriors. Ye Tianchen, merely in his twenties, despite having some strength, was bold enough to disdain the Heavenly Gang team, which was effectively a direct insult to Man Tian. Man Tian was eager to teach Ye Tianchen a harsh lesson, to show him the strength of the Heavenly Gang Level warriors. It wasn’t about resentment but an embodiment of the pride that came with being a powerful warrior, a dignity that could not be violated.

”Chief, that’s your assessment of him. I neither deny nor agree, but with his young age and such arrogance, I will take the opportunity to discipline him!” Man Tian spoke bluntly.

The chief, looking at the documents in his hand, did not immediately respond. He was well aware of Man Tian’s personality, absolute loyalty to the nation and its people, yet also a fiery temper often displayed on the battlefield—a true war monger. Also, the Heavenly Gang Level warrior team, in Man Tian’s view, was his family, all the members his brothers. Ye Tianchen’s refusal to accept help from the Heavenly Gang Level warriors certainly upset Man Tian.

”Well, that’s up to you. I was actually considering, if possible, to recruit that young man into the Heavenly Gang Level team,” said the chief.

”If he has the capability to pass the Heavenly Gang Level warrior’s test, I’ll give him that chance. Or if he could withstand ten moves from me, I’ll also give him that chance... but I doubt he can!”

Man Tian’s tone was filled with disdain, and the chief didn’t push further. After all, many things depended on them, and forceful measures often yielded no sweetness!
