Chapter 758: Chapter 796: The Super Soldier

Ning Xin’er had left, and He Fangqing’s wound had been stitched up. Although he still dared not engage in vigorous activities, his normal life and work were not affected. With so many things happening in the company, she couldn’t wait to start working there again.

Li Yifei, too, had returned to work on Monday, but he only stayed in the company for a short while before making a phone call to ask Xu Yingying for leave.

At that time, Xu Yingying was meeting with several key middle managers and directly hung up on Li Yifei’s call. Li Yifei had no choice but to send a text message to Xu Yingying, telling her that he had to step out to handle some matters, to which Xu Yingying did not even reply.

Li Yifei couldn’t worry about whether Xu Yingying was upset or not at that moment; he had things he had to do. The South Chen Organization knew the whereabouts of their enemy. Having failed this time, they would surely strike again. Li Yifei knew this organization all too well; they were like adhesive plaster on their enemies, impossible to shake off unless you scared them enough to deter them from bothering you again.

Another concern weighed even more heavily on Li Yifei: once the news of his presence in Mile City as the Golden Eagle got out, it would not be just the South Chen Organization seeking revenge. There would certainly be others coming after him.

As a member of the top special forces unit in Huaxia, and the strongest within that elite group, he had inevitably clashed with several terrorist organizations. Many important figures from those organizations had died by his hand, harboring grudges against both Huaxia as a nation and Li Yifei as an individual. Opposing the mighty Huaxia was beyond their capabilities, but seeking personal revenge against him was relatively easier.

Moreover, killing Li Yifei would bolster the morale within those organizations, a common and effective practice among their leadership to win over their people’s hearts.

If Li Yifei were to face these challenges alone, he truly wouldn’t stand a chance, even if he mobilized all his mercenary forces. Such an effort would pale in comparison to well-established terrorist organizations, let alone the possibility that it wasn’t just one but several organizations involved, which would overwhelm Li Yifei even more.

Li Yifei was not impulsive or one to play the hero. After contributing so much to his country, all he wanted was to live a peaceful life. Yet his retirement had brought him so much trouble that he naturally needed some assistance from the nation.

With such powerful support from the state, even without engaging those terrorist organizations directly, simply by strengthening security measures, it would be much harder for those organizations to enter Mile City.

With some intelligence supply as well, Li Yifei could launch proactive strikes, as he had done the last time when he eliminated three experts from the Yamaguchi Group before they could lay their hands on him, eradicating the impending threat.

After leaving the company, Li Yifei went to a tea house. Upon giving the room number, a server guided him inside, where a man in his fifties, impeccably dressed in a Zhongshan suit, sat with great vigor. As Li Yifei entered, the man immediately smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Young man, I can’t believe you’ve only decided to contact me now. That’s not very considerate of you."

Li Yifei laughed and sat down, replying, "I just didn’t want to trouble the country with matters I could handle myself."

"Don’t pretend now. I know you too well. Can you ever truly settle down? With your restless nature, if you were to live in peace for two years, you’d probably get restless," he said as he poured a cup of tea for Li Yifei and then gestured for the server to leave.

In the private room left with just the two of them, Li Yifei looked at the elder, dropping his joking demeanor. Despite the elder’s unassuming appearance, his name once instilled fear in countries worldwide; he was Zhou Boyu, the previous Head Eagle of the Flying Hawk Squad.

In the eyes of the outside world, the Flying Hawk Squad was considered the peak of Huaxia’s military elite. Even the heads of major families and key national leaders were of the same opinion. However, the highest authorities in Huaxia knew of an even more special force, one stronger than the Flying Hawk Squad because it comprised the true Head Eagles from various generations of the squad. Considering Li Yifei’s capabilities, an organization consisting of individuals with comparable abilities was unimaginably powerful.

This organization was known as "Phantom," comprising solely ten members. Although there have been more than twenty Flying Hawk Squad leaders, some did not qualify for Phantom due to their lackluster skills or having died in battle, so the current number remained at ten.

In Phantom, rank had no bearing; members referred to each other as brothers. The oldest was seventy-three, while the youngest was Li Yifei.

After sipping his tea, Li Yifei said, "Fifth Brother, is your visit to Mile City because you’ve received some news?"

Zhou Boyu nodded, "Tenth Brother, indeed. I don’t know who leaked the information of your presence here as the Golden Eagle, but many organizations are now converging on Mile City, all wanting your life."

Li Yifei smiled faintly, "Seems like my life is quite valuable if so many are vying to take it."

Zhou Boyu said with a smile, "Of course, some organizations have a vendetta against you and want to eliminate you for satisfaction, while others see an opportunity to make a name for themselves. Killing the world-famous Golden Eagle would bring unimaginable prestige to their organization."

Li Yifei squinted his eyes and said, "You mean, all the major organizations know about this news now?"

"Exactly, the person who can release this news must be extraordinarily bold and well-connected to all these organizations. Keep in mind that no matter which organization gets this message, they won’t just tell anyone, unless they want to use others to kill you. But the likelihood of that is not high. The real concern is the person who actually publicized your information; they are the biggest conspirator and the one we need to be most cautious of."

Li Yifei slowly sipped another cup of tea and said, "Not only a conspirator but they must also have enough power to back it up. Now, which organization in the world has such power?"

Zhou Boyu spoke calmly as well, "There are only two organizations that might have such power: one is the Green Hand Party in Europe, and the other is the Holy War Organization in America. However, whether it is one of these two organizations, we are not sure."

Li Yifei’s mouth twitched and he said, "Then it’s basically impossible for it to be the Holy War Organization."

With a smile in his eyes, Zhou Boyu asked, "Why do you say that?"

Li Yifei rubbed his nose and replied, "I just have that feeling."

Zhou Boyu burst out laughing and said, "Whenever you rub your nose, that’s a sign you’re feeling guilty. I heard that the saintess of the Holy War Organization is a blonde beauty. You didn’t fool around with her, did you? The saintess is a symbol of the Holy War Organization. If you messed with her, it would be perfectly normal for them to stop at nothing to come after you."

Li Yifei’s face turned dark and he said, "Fifth Brother, you’re giving me too much credit."

"Haha, not only are you as strong as us old folks, which we all readily acknowledge, but I would also agree placing you in the top three. There are always two who would disagree, but when it comes to being the Head Eagle and completing missions, you managed to flirt around the world like no other, and for that, we are all truly impressed."

Li Yifei gave a dry laugh as an image of a woman with golden hair reaching her waist and skin as fair as an angel’s appeared in his mind. She was a woman who could make any man worship her.

In Huaxia, there’s Su Mengxin, not only recognized as the number one beauty of Huaxia, but she’s also acclaimed as the number one beauty in all of Asia. Meanwhile, the saintess is considered the number one beauty in the West. Li Yifei not only had seen her but also had a bit of a story with her.

"Fifth Brother, stop joking around with me. Although I’ve met the saintess and had a few encounters with her, I really didn’t ’play’ her. We didn’t have any conflict with their organization, so they have no reason to trouble me," he said.

Zhou Boyu chuckled and suggested, "Could it be that this saintess took a fancy to you, and then you didn’t reciprocate, so she’s causing trouble for you? It’s also very possible. The heart of a woman is indeed the hardest to fathom."

"No! No!" Li Yifei shook his head like a rattle-drum and said, "That’s absolutely impossible. Fifth Brother, what do you take me for? Even the saintess would fall for me and become spiteful out of love? You sure have quite the imagination."

Zhou Boyu narrowed his eyes at Li Yifei, his gaze meaningful, and slowly said, "Our Huaxia’s number one beauty fell into your hands. It wouldn’t be such a stretch for a saintess to fall in love with you either."

Li Yifei’s face darkened as he replied, "Fifth Brother... You know about that too?"

"Nonsense, Su Mengxin set up a company in Mile City and is always hanging around with you. If she didn’t fancy you, how could that be? Only a fool wouldn’t see through it. Now many in the Capital City are aware of you, and it’s only a matter of time before Old Master Su calls for you."

Li Yifei rubbed his nose and said, "That would be difficult. Old Master Su has a rather foul temper."

"Haha... that will depend on your skills. But you’ve married a wife and still got involved with Su Mengxin. Old Master Su is indeed very upset. If it weren’t for the constant busyness of recent events, he might have already made his way to Mile City."

Li Yifei was thoroughly scared by this. The elders in the Capital City were not easy to deal with, and among them, Old Master Su was certainly one of the most demanding. Facing such a senior leader of the Central Government, Li Yifei really felt quite powerless.
