Under the cover of night, outside the gates of the palace.
The moonlight slipped out from behind the clouds, curiously examining the ancient structure of the palace, falling on the treetops nearby. It couldn't decipher the chaos of the battling ninjas, nor the solemnly prepared military police surrounding the palace. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves, creating a soothing rustling sound, which was overshadowed by the noise of gunfire and slaughter. Countless ard military police coldly watched the palace, their entire beings exuding a chilling murderous aura. Clearly, this was a battle-hardened elite force, not an ordinary troop.
In front of this unit were a few military vehicles parked, with several advanced officers standing beside one special armored vehicle, whispering among themselves. Strangely, beside these officers stood a man in black, silently staring ahead, with eyes emitting a beast-like cold glint, where battle flas danced within.
The sounds of fighting inside the palace gradually diminished, and low-ranking officers continually ran over to salute and report to a major general. The major general coldly remained silent. After a while, the major general glanced at the ninja, who gave a slight nod. Understanding this, the major general's eyes beca even colder, and suddenly he shouted, "Pass my order, charge in, kill without rcy, rescue His Majesty the Emperor, attack."
"Attack." Upon hearing the command, the lower-ranking officers quickly directed their troops to charge inside the palace. The major general didn't move; the ninja didn't move either. They just watched the military police charging inside with cold gazes. The gunshots and explosions inside the palace grew louder, tearing through the night sky and illuminating the surroundings brightly.
Soon, the military police all rushed in. The major general stood motionless, watching the direction of the main gate, and said in a lowered voice, "After this battle, the era of our Kaga ninjas will arrive."
"Yes, one must not be careless." The man in black said coldly.
"Indeed, it's a pity those people from Huaxia Country are hiding sowhere, otherwise, we could catch them all in one go. But it doesn't matter, as long as they're in this country, we can definitely find them. This ti, the intimate cooperation with the Pri Minister's Residence, its purpose you and I both know, is to control the imperial power through us, no problem, a win-win situation. However, with the governnt's determination and attitude, they won't be able to escape." The major general said coldly.
"I've said it before, one must not be careless; the more critical the mont, the more one needs to stay calm." The man in black reminded sowhat displeased, "You are the future successor of our Kaga ninjas; how can you be so impetuous?"
"Yes, I will rember." The major general nodded respectfully, thought for a mont, and uneasily asked, "Why did you reveal yourself? Was it intentional? What's the purpose?"
"Exposing myself to provoke their anger, prompting them to attack so that we can capture them. Otherwise, if they escape, where will we find them?" The man in black said coldly.
"Understood." The major general was stunned, realized instantly, and smiled.
Far away in the embassy, Luo Zheng looked at the frozen image on the screen, face pale with anger. It was of the man in black at the palace gate. Luo Zheng could never have imagined that this person was Yuanfei Zuo. He didn't disguise his face, making him instantly recognizable. Staring at Yuanfei Zuo, Luo Zheng was furious, a sense of deceit and betrayal washing over him. Despite all the calculations, he was ultimately manipulated by the other side, which made Luo Zheng feel defeated, but more so, filled with rage and self-bla.
Lan Xue also recognized Yuanfei Zuo, silently cold-faced, her gaze icy like eternal frost, staring at the TV screen. Everyone noticed sothing wrong with Luo Zheng and Lan Xue, were surprised, and those who had seen Yuanfei Zuo, like Mountain Eagle, also recognized him, beca furious, eyes ablaze with fury, coldly watching the screen, quietly revealing Yuanfei Zuo's identity.
When everyone heard that the subject was Yuanfei Zuo, the cooperative party, they instantly understood Luo Zheng and Lan Xue's anger, their faces changed dramatically, filled with fury. Ghost Hand coldly said, "That bastard, he exposed himself so overtly, definitely on purpose, just to let us recognize him, fine, perfect, I'll go kill him."
"I'll go too." The Scholar furiously shouted, exuding a murderous aura.
"I know the base, I'll go too." Mountain Eagle coldly said.
"What's all this noise, stand down, all of you." Lan Xue suddenly said coldly, staring at Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng turned around silently, entered his room, and closed the bedroom door with a heavy thud. Everyone was stunned, cald down imdiately, turning to look at Lan Xue. Lan Xue was also in a bad mood, sat down cold-faced, silent. Everyone gathered around, exchanged glances, ending on Ghost Hand. Ghost Hand sighed helplessly, looked at Lan Xue, and said, "Captain, don't be angry, calm down, we can take him out later."
"That bastard, I won't forgive him." Lan Xue coldly yelled, bursting out with expletives.
Everyone was stunned, then realized that Lan Xue was genuinely furious this ti; otherwise, she wouldn't have cursed like that, and dared not speak loudly, looked at Ghost Hand, gesturing for him to console her a bit. Ghost Hand helplessly shrugged, not knowing what to say, for Lan Xue in a rage was not to be trifled with.
"Don't speak; I need so quiet." Lan Xue said, and left to her room to adjust her mood.
Everyone looked at Ghost Hand, their faces solemn, lost in thought. Ghost Hand said softly, "Brothers, don't be too anxious; if we were exposed, we wouldn't be sitting here now; the enemy would've attacked already. Ghost has been cautious enough, never exposed this hiding spot, the enemy can't find us for now. Let's wait till they calm down; it's not too late. Spread the word, make sure everyone's aware, but must maintain restraint, cannot create additional chaos."
"Agreed." Mountain Eagle and Snow Leopard echoed.
"Alright." The Scholar concurred as well.
The few got up and went to other rooms to find their people. Luo Zheng stood silently outside the window, cold-faced, watching the leaves outside fluttering and dancing in the wind. His mood was stifled as if he couldn't breathe. The cooperation with Yuanfei Zuo yielded results, and Yuanfei Zuo was also calculated, but Luo Zheng didn't expect Yuanfei Zuo to hide so deeply. He almost completely trusted the other side; it now seed he still lacked acun. Fortunately, this location wasn't exposed, or it would be more troubleso. Looks like so plans need to be advanced.
After a while, Luo Zheng felt slightly better. After all, in cooperation, there's always mutual calculation, both sides can't always win without ever losing; it's a learning experience this ti. A knocking sound ca from outside; it was Lan Xue. The door opened shortly after, and Lan Xue entered coldly, seeing Luo Zheng's mood improved, she breathed a sigh of relief. She walked over to Luo Zheng, embraced him gently, and said softly, "It's good you ca around; this revenge must be exacted; what's next?"
