God-Level Special Forces Soldier

Chapter 398: Chapter 395

”Guess?” Xiao Tian quickly caught the key point: ”So, he isn’t sure about the reason for your grandfather’s disappearance?”

Peng Qi, lying on the hospital bed, shook his head and said: ”It’s not about my grandfather’s disappearance but about the ’Peng Jiamu’ who melted in the rain.”

”According to the old man’s recollection, the reason for my grandfather’s disappearance indeed was the Double Fish Jade Pendant,” Peng Qi continued, ”Later, the events became too bizarre; the report was sent up, and no one believed it; but since tens of thousands witnessed it firsthand, an expert group was established at the top.”

”The expert group quickly moved into the desert for on-site investigation and concluded that the two Jade Pendants contained immense magnetic energy.”

Peng Qi coughed twice and continued: ”Just like magnets, the combination of the two generated a massive energy field, so my grandfather was ’sucked’ into another world; as for the grandfather who returned to the base later, it was a ’mirror image’ produced by a repelling reaction.”

Although finding Peng Qi’s story somewhat unconvincing, Xiao Tian couldn’t help but ask: ”So you took the risk to seize the Double Fish Jade Pendant at the exhibition to verify the experts’ hypothesis of that year?”

”No!”

Unexpectedly, Peng Qi shook his head again in denial. This time he paused for a long while before slowly saying: ”Because I have another Jade Pendant in my possession!”

Xiao Tian was stunned, a vague answer surfacing in his mind: ”That Jade Pendant is yours...”

Peng Qi nodded, confirming Xiao Tian’s guess: ”That’s right, the old man gave me that Jade Pendant, and according to him, my grandfather suddenly disappeared only after combining the two Jade Pendants.”

By now, Peng Qi’s purpose was quite clear: he intended to unite the Jade Pendant in his hand with another at the exhibition to explore the mystery of Peng Jiamu’s disappearance.

After hearing Peng Qi’s story, Xiao Tian turned to leave first: ”I’ll go rescue your two brothers, as a reward for listening to your story!”

Peng Qi looked at Xiao Tian’s back and earnestly requested: ”Could you help me?”

Xiao Tian paused, unable to deny that Peng Qi’s story did pique his curiosity, and immediately agreed: ”Okay, you take a good rest, and I’ll bring you your two brothers.”

...

”What?” In the luxurious villa, Jerry immediately jumped off the sofa after listening to Heizi’s narration: ”You’re saying a mysterious expert appeared in Shanghai? And it’s our enemy?”

Jerry calmed down, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes. It seems necessary to inform the family to send more people!

Ever since coming to Shanghai, he has suffered successive losses in Xiao Tian’s hands, then encountered robbers attempting to seize artifacts, and now, a mysterious and unpredictable adversary expert has appeared, each step fraught with difficulties.

The series of blows stirred Jerry’s ferocity; such a small Shanghai could produce so many troubles. No miscellaneous hybrids dare to bite him; is the Turner Group so easy to bully?

As for Heizi’s tale of fighting the expert for hundreds of rounds and being both terribly injured, Jerry, of course, didn’t believe it. Heizi’s previous performance showed he was no longer trustworthy.

The more Jerry looked at Heizi, the angrier he became, and he sneered: ”The expert you mentioned wasn’t Xiao Tian, was it?”

Jerry certainly couldn’t confirm whether the masked expert was Xiao Tian; he was just looking at Heizi’s behavior, feeling angry, and also suspicious about the Dark List’s ranking credibility.

Heizi caught the sarcasm in Jerry’s words, coldly snorted: ”I’ve fought him before; that kid can’t be that strong.” Implying that Xiao Tian was not in the same league as himself.

Little did he know that Xiao Tian just didn’t want to cause a larger scene that day.

Jerry gestured for Heizi to leave the Jade Pendant and then dialed the family to report the recent series of changes, of course omitting the part where Xiao Tian humiliated him.

Upon hearing the family member they were sending this time, Jerry’s confidence immediately surged: ”Xiao Tian, this time, I’ll make dying hard for you!”

...

The subsequent matters became much simpler. After witnessing Xiao Tian’s prowess, British agents agreed to jointly protect the inner layer with Huaxia security personnel.

As for Xiao Tian, he spent his days inside the venue drinking tea and chatting with foreign girls, having a rather leisurely time.

Until the third day...

On this day, slightly missing Xiao Tian, not entirely trusting him, Yu Ningxue arrived at the venue without any prior notice.

Yu Ningxue was indignant. That bastard, after their phone call, only returned to the police station to relay an utterly absurd story to her, and then there was no further information.

”Hmph! I want to see what that bastard is busy with?”

Yu Ningxue bent down, secretly peering through the crack of the door, her head slowly moving over, one eye open, the other closed, resembling a peeping tom in the movies trying to catch a woman bathing.

Yet, before she could see what was inside, suddenly, she felt a tap on her shoulder, and her mouth and nose were covered. Startled, her body reacted immediately.

Yu Ningxue grabbed the hand covering her face with both hands, pulling it forward forcefully, pinning the entire arm against her shoulder, then with a swift and powerful motion, tossed it forward, witnessing a petite figure soaring overhead.

”Ouch!” Le Yaoyao cried out, clutching her waist while lying on the ground, inwardly relieved that ’luckily, it wasn’t a frontal landing’!

If she had gotten a scar, would her uncle care...? Eh, what was she thinking?

Yu Ningxue saw that the person she assumed a villain was actually a young girl, who, at the moment, was struggling to stand up off the ground.

Seeing this, Yu Ningxue quickly helped her up, asking nervously, ”Are you, are you okay? I, I didn’t mean it! I thought you were...”

Le Yaoyao, being helped up, looked angrily at Yu Ningxue, one hand supporting the wall, the other holding her waist, with her chest heaving up and down: ”You even ambush a beautiful girl like me?”

Rarely did she sneak out from her little aunt Lin Bingxuan to Xiao Tian’s location, intending to surprise him, but as she arrived at the doorway, she saw a woman sneak around like a thief.

Worried she might make some noise, alerting Xiao Tian and ruining her plan, Le Yaoyao hurriedly covered Yu Ningxue’s mouth, resulting in...

Yu Ningxue, hearing Le Yaoyao accuse first, found it amusing: ”I ambushed you? Clearly, you ambushed me first, didn’t you?”

Le Yaoyao felt a surge of anger, thinking about the previous ’beautiful’ over-the-shoulder throw, which didn’t seem like something an ordinary woman could perform, and, breathing heavily, said: ”Hmph! Just wait, I’ll have my uncle-in-law fire you!”

Yu Ningxue raised her head, maintaining a ’bring it on’ demeanor, saying: ”Fine! I’ll be waiting!” thinking how her ’disciple’ Xiao Tian was such a high-ranking official, how could anyone fire her? What a joke!

The two flung the doors open to see...

At this moment, Xiao Tian was surrounded by a group of blonde-haired and blue-eyed beauties, with the women forming a circle and Xiao Tian sitting in the center.
