Chapter 325 Another Assassin Sent!
Chapter 325 Another Assassin Sent!
"Senior Brother, I’ve finally seen you!" Lin Feng also sized up his Senior Brother, Wang Anjun, who had an average build and weight, but the man exuded an aura of authority that made others want to submit. The square, broad face with its thick beard made one feel almost as if they were looking at the legendary Zhang Fei in the flesh, albeit with a different temperament.
"Senior Brother, let me introduce you—this is Chu Meng, the Sect Leader of Cloud Fund and also a disciple of our master, just like you; she’s my Senior Sister." Seeing the confusion in his Senior Brother’s eyes, Lin Feng swiftly introduced Chu Meng’s identity to Wang Anjun.
"Senior Sister, like you, he is also a disciple of our master, Wang Anjun, currently the Chief of the Special Action Department of the state." Lin Feng introduced Wang Anjun to a puzzled Chu Meng. It didn’t matter if they hadn’t known before, but since they’ve met now, they had to get to know each other—moreover, there could be times when siblings in the martial arts would need to help each other in the future.
"Hello, Senior Brother!" Chu Meng could never have dreamed that she not only had a Junior Brother but also a Senior Brother, who was the Chief of the Special Action Department of the state. Such news was truly unexpected. From her Junior Brother’s words, it sounded like this Senior Brother was also an honorary disciple, like herself. How did her Junior Brother come to know this Senior Brother, and just how many honorary disciples did their master have?
"It never occurred to me that I would have a Junior Sister, haha!" Hearing the introduction from his Junior Brother, Wang Anjun learned for the first time that this young and beautiful woman was indeed his Junior Sister, which surprised him greatly. If the master had only one direct disciple, Lin Feng, then Chu Meng, like himself, must also be an honorary disciple. He had never expected to see other siblings here.
Apart from his Junior Brother who had actively contacted him, years had passed without anyone else looking for him, so he didn’t know how many siblings he had. However, meeting both his Junior Brother and Junior Sister today was certainly a very happy occasion.
"This isn’t the place to talk; let’s continue on the plane," Wang Anjun suggested, glancing at their surroundings. He felt it wasn’t the right time to talk and proposed they leave the dangerous area with his Junior Brother and Sister first. There was no rush now that they had met.
"Senior Sister, let’s get on the plane, too," Lin Feng agreed with his Senior Brother’s suggestion. It was best to leave this place for now—there would be plenty of time to interact later.
"Okay!" Chu Meng understood the brother’s points and agreed. The three of them then boarded the helicopter in succession.
"Senior Brother, how are you going to get us out of Kenya and back to China?" As soon as Lin Feng boarded the plane, he raised the most crucial question. The safety of his Senior Sister was of the utmost importance; they couldn’t afford any further delay here. He wasn’t afraid of the guns and bullets, but his Senior Sister was an ordinary person, which was definitely not acceptable.
"Junior Brother, I’ve put pressure on the President of Kenya with a phone call. Given the current situation, those generals won’t do anything too outrageous. Also, I’ve contacted a general whom I have a very good relationship with, to borrow his private airstrip. Our plane is already waiting there, and once we get there, we’ll head straight back to our country," Wang Anjun shared his arrangements with his Junior Brother, to reassure both him and his Junior Sister that he had certain privileges to use abroad.
"Oh, that’s great! Senior Sister, we can peacefully return to China now," Lin Feng said, fully reassured by his Senior Brother’s plans, no longer worried about their return journey.
"Senior Brother, how long have you been in Africa?"
"Don’t even mention it, it’s been three years already."
"Why didn’t you return to China?"
"I wanted to, but couldn’t! Otherwise, I would have gone back to find you, Junior Brother. By the way, how did you get in touch with Junior Sister?"
"She was contacted by Junior Brother over the phone."
"Me too!"
...
On the way to the airport, the three casually chatted, happy to be talking with fellow disciples of their master, whom they had never met before. They learned a lot during their conversation, and Wang Anjun discovered why his Junior Brother and Junior Sister had suddenly appeared in Kenya, Africa. It turned out Chu Meng’s Cloud Fund had been set up, and without Lin Feng, she might have lost her life.
When Wang Anjun first received the call from his Junior Brother, he was puzzled as to why such a person would fear these military men—it turned out to be for the sake of his Junior Sister’s safety. It was quite fortunate that he too had stayed in Africa and had not left; otherwise, today’s events would have been even more troublesome.
Chu Meng was also very happy; she had thought she was surely going to die, and had not expected to encounter her fellow disciples. This feeling was truly one of having survived a calamity, and it made her emotions incredibly complex.
...
Not long after Lin Feng had finished calling his senior brother Wang Anjun, on the other side, General Karo received a message from the president. Moreover, the other generals were also pressuring him, telling him not to act rashly anymore, which greatly frustrated him.
He had just received a report that those two appeared at a small airport, and the news thrilled him. If he could capture the two, he could negotiate a certain price with Max Dorrell, and get something in return. Just when he was planning to mobilize his forces to catch them, to everyone’s surprise, the president intervened in the matter. Now, he had no choice but to stand down; otherwise, displeasing the other generals and the president would not be worth the loss.
"Hello, Mr. Max Dorrell, this is Karo. I can’t arrest Chu Meng now!" With no other option, General Karo could only inform Max Dorrell, so that later, Max Dorrell couldn’t blame him for not trying his best to help catch her.
"Hm? Why? General Karo, what happened?" Max Dorrell found it very strange when General Karo said he couldn’t catch them. After all, General Karo was one of the most powerful generals in Kenya, so how could he not be able to catch someone?
"It’s like this: Chu Meng and a young man just went to an airport, and then they stole a car and escaped amid gunfire from my men. Right when I was about to assemble a team to pursue them, I got calls from the president and several other generals telling me not to act recklessly. It’s certain that there’s a significant force influencing this, and now I can no longer make a move," Karo said, explaining the current situation to Max Dorrell. Facing such circumstances, there was nothing he could do. If it were possible, he would defiantly have captured those two and handed them over to Max Dorrell.
"What? Is that so?" Max Dorrell was furious upon hearing this from General Karo. It should have been an easy matter—once Chu Meng’s plane had an accident, she would have been as good as dead. But to his surprise, not only did Chu Meng not die, but she was also running for her life, and what was more infuriating was that there was a young man with her.
If nothing went wrong, that young man was the one who had killed Li Dongtian. His files had never mentioned Chu Meng had such a formidable person with her. He knew that Li Dongtian was an AA grade late-stage or peak expert, and it was hard to imagine that this young man could have killed Li Dongtian.
Moreover, the situation had now become even more complicated, with the president of Kenya and other generals getting involved. This meant that a very strong force was meddling in the affair; if mishandled, Chu Meng might well escape death and come back to cause trouble for him.
Although her Cloud Fund no longer existed, who knew if she had any contingency plans? If she managed to make a comeback in China, he, as the person responsible for this affair, would certainly be subject to her revenge. Especially now that there was a master at her side, it was absolutely imperative that Chu Meng not be allowed to leave Africa alive.
So what should he do now? By his estimate, Boss’s assassin, Li Daqi, should have arrived in Kenya by now, but without a trace, how could Li Daqi make a move?
"General Karo, are there any traces of them now?" Although Max Dorrell was extremely angry with Karo, he did not vent his frustration because he knew that a powerful force was influencing him, and nothing could be done about it. However, the most important thing now was to find traces of Chu Meng and the young man, so that Li Daqi could kill them.
"Right, if you hadn’t asked I would have almost forgotten. Just now, one of my men told me that a foreign private plane had landed at another small airport. I don’t know if it’s related to them?" When General Karo heard Max Dorrell’s question, he suddenly remembered a report from one of his men prior to his phone call with Max Dorrell.
"That must be the plane they intend to leave on, General Karo. Please, do me one last favor—go to Nairobi Airport and pick up an Eastern man named Li Daqi. Then send him by helicopter at top speed to the location you mentioned with the foreign private plane. That should be feasible, right?" Max Dorrell’s eyes lit up as soon as he heard General Karo mention that. He had been anxious about finding no trace of Chu Meng and her companion. A foreign private plane that had landed at some remote small airport at this time had to be there to pick up Chu Meng and her companion. In Kenya, a country ravaged by poverty, only Nairobi could be barely called a city; the purpose of this plane’s arrival at such a time was definitely to help the two escape.
Now that he knew this, it would be easy enough to direct General Karo to send Li Daqi to the airport and kill Chu Meng and her companion. Time was of the essence, and it was crucial to kill them before they left!
"Of course, that’s not a problem. I’ll arrange it right now," General Karo immediately agreed after hearing Max Dorrell’s request, as it was a simple enough task to do.
"You must act quickly. Once Chu Meng is dead, we can renegotiate the price of the transaction." Max Dorrell tempted General Karo with a promise of profit, assuring that Karo would give his fullest effort.
"I will arrange for the fastest and best helicopter immediately. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it now," said General Karo before hanging up the phone and then quickly calling his subordinates to order them to deploy the helicopter he usually used...
Upon hearing General Karo’s response, Max Dorrell finally felt at ease. Today was surely the end for Chu Meng! With everything arranged so by him, Chu Meng’s death was certain! Thinking this, he quickly sent a message to Li Daqi, informing him of the situation and instructing him to ensure that Chu Meng and her companion were killed.
