Chapter 978: Chapter 394 Top Secret Operation Chapter 978: Chapter 394 Top Secret Operation Upon receiving the urgent intelligence from the Artificial Intelligence “Dream”, Yan Fei took it very seriously and immediately halted the long-distance shifting of sand. Under his control, the drone buried deep within the Western Desert of China abruptly surfaced, ending its Subterranean Mode, and began to quickly morph back into its drone form.

Then, the drone ascended into the sky, floating upwards until it reached an altitude of 25,000 meters, and it accelerated to maximum Flight Speed. Under the cover of the pitch-black night, it silently headed towards Cangzhou, 3,000 kilometers away. The drone had left the Western Desert at 9 p.m., and by the time it arrived over Cangzhou, it was precisely 10 p.m.

The Level 5 drone possessed formidable Radar Stealth capabilities, and part of its body also had optical camouflage abilities. When it flew through the dark night sky, there was no need to worry about being detected by anyone. Indeed, throughout its 3,000-kilometer flight, no person or Detection Equipment was able to spot it.

The drone appeared over Cangzhou and then slowed down, hovering silently within a cluster of clouds above the city, completely concealing itself.

The old residence of the Cangzhou Sun Family was not located within Cangzhou City but nestled within a mountainous area on the outskirts of Cangzhou. Reaching the Sun Family's ancient estate from Cangzhou City required crossing a steep mountain. The property was vast, filled with quaint old-style buildings featuring a traditional Chinese aesthetic. Each structure was at least a century old and exuded an air of ancient charm.

There were no other houses nearby the Sun Family old residence, hence no neighbors. As such, even if vehicles occasionally passed by these ancient structures, people would only marvel at the well-preserved heritage within the mountains, never suspecting that an equally ancient family resided within these old buildings.

The Cangzhou Sun Family was an ancient and prestigious clan that had stood unwaveringly in China for thousands of years–its exact lineage spanned beyond memory. According to rumors, the Sun Family descended from an Ancient lineage with a history of at least five thousand years. Moreover, the family was shrouded in mystery and formidable strength, so much so that most people preferred not to provoke them. Due to the Sun Family's low profile, ordinary folks knew little about them, and even historical records scarcely mentioned their name.

Yan Fei had previously sought out data about the Sun Family, but the information was incomplete and only offered a glimpse into the family, far from revealing their true secrets. However, if the Sun Family indeed dated back to Ancient Times and had persevered to modern times, then they were truly fearsome.

Throughout history, very few aristocratic families had managed to persist unaffected by the rise and fall of dynasties. The fact that the Sun Family had achieved this feat signified they possessed wisdom and energy beyond common knowledge. That such an illustrious family had maintained their low profile for thousands of years puzzled Yan Fei.

After all, if the Sun Family had been high-profile and left behind historical records, they would likely have been extinguished long ago. Given the multitude of powerful individuals throughout history, it was improbable that no one had been capable of annihilating the Sun Family…

Yan Fei had previously encountered three members from the Sun Family; the first was Sun Li. However, at that time, Sun Li's strength was insignificant, without any extraordinary abilities beyond his learned techniques, utterly no match for Yan Fei. Sun Li's repeated attempts to hinder Yan Fei from killing Zhang Baocheng only succeeded in enraging Yan Fei, resulting in his own death at Yan Fei's hands.

The second was Sun Yi, the bodyguard of Yang Wanlin, the younger brother of Yang Liu. Sun Yi was tasked with protecting Yang Wanlin as they traveled from domestic China to the Headquarters of the Middle Eastern Assassins Sect for negotiations. However, Sun Yi perished in battle against Yan Fei.

Compared to Sun Li, Sun Yi was far more formidable. Normally, his strength was only at the level of an Acquired Peak, a huge disparity compared to Yan Fei and no match for him. But after engaging in a ritual akin to “inviting divine possession”, Sun Yi's strength skyrocketed, allowing him to overwhelm and batter the then-powerful Yan Fei. Despite surviving Sun Yi's peak strength, Yan Fei could not avoid Sun Yi's fatal blow at the last moment and was severely injured. Had it not been for the energy from the black sphere that Yan Fei carried with him, which allowed for swift recuperation, he might not have survived his encounter in the Middle East.

Sun Yi left a deep impression on Yan Fei, the Red Charm he possessed acted almost like a cheat device, instantly elevating his strength by an entire realm. In the end, Sun Yi resorted to a mutually destructive technique, wielding the power to slay experts stronger than himself. Sun Yi's death was not directly caused by Yan Fei but rather as a consequence of the desperate technique. This experience with Sun Yi made Yan Fei realize the menace posed by the Sun Family and became the primary reason he didn't want any involvement with them, even after increasing his own strength.

The third was Sun Gang, who had once demonstrated his power in front of Yan Fei. In Yan Fei's opinion, Sun Gang was unsurprisingly a super expert at the Innate Peak, his prowess far surpassing that of average experts at that level. Furthermore, Yan Fei noticed the same Red Charm on Sun Gang.
