Jiang Shinan's body rolled off his Mount, and at that moment, the cheetah beneath him wanted to avenge its master. However, just as it prepared to pounce on Liu Guanfeng, it realized it could no longer get up.
Turning its head, it saw a large black head above it watching closely. Little Black had already placed its two front paws on the cheetah's body. With a grin, Little Black said to the cheetah below, "Little cat, do you still want revenge? You should take a look at your own strength; just accompany your master to the afterlife."
After speaking, Little Black bit down on the cheetah's throat. Although Little Black could use magic, for some reason, when it came to killing an opponent, it preferred to use primal methods. Perhaps this was simply a matter of beastly instincts.
Liu Guanfeng looked at the dead cheetah and asked, "Senior brother, have those little shrimp been dealt with?"
Little Black nodded. "They were hardly worth mentioning. If one or two managed to escape, would I still have the face to call myself your senior brother?"
"Then let's dispose of their bodies quickly and leave here."
Little Black nodded and opened its mouth; dozens of fireballs quickly ignited all the bodies. After a while, a gust of wind blew through, leaving nothing but bloodstains and charred black marks on the ground.
Liu Guanfeng looked at the traces on the ground and nodded in satisfaction. Then he reached out to pat Little Black's head. "Senior brother, let's go home."
Riding on Little Black and accompanied by his two beasts, Liu Guanfeng opened up the path ahead and soon returned to the fishing village. When Liu Guanfeng walked into the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, Huang Tie immediately spotted him and rushed out from behind the counter. "Master, you're back!"
Liu Guanfeng nodded. "Yes, is everything well at home?"
"Everything is normal at home, Master."
"What about the armor I asked you to forge before I left?"
"All the blacksmiths are still working hard on it; we currently have twenty-seven thousand sets completed."
"Good, let the blacksmiths continue to work hard. We'll take as many orders as the country needs this year."
Huang Tie smiled upon hearing this. "I'll go tell the craftsmen right away." He turned to run inside but then stopped and turned back. "Master, weren't you captured? How are you still discussing business with the country?"
Liu Guanfeng briefly explained what had happened, and Huang Tie was impressed, giving a thumbs up. "Master, you really are something. You were originally taken like a criminal, and not only are you fine, but you've also secured such a deal."
"Enough with the flattery. I'm going to wash up and rest for a bit."
"By the way, Master, Hou Chuan and the others have returned," Huang Tie said in a lowered voice.
"Oh? When did they come back?"
"They've been back for almost a week. When they heard you were captured, they wanted to rescue you, but I and Cui Leader managed to stop them."
Liu Guanfeng nodded. "Well done. I'll go wash up and have Hou Chuan wait for me in the study."
"Understood, Master."
Huang Tie accompanied Liu Guanfeng to the backyard. Liu Guanfeng greeted familiar faces along the way and went straight to his room to wash up, while Huang Tie informed Qifeng Ge of everything Liu Guanfeng had just told him and also told Hou Chuan to wait in the study for Liu Guanfeng.
After washing up, Liu Guanfeng changed into a clean set of clothes and headed to his study. At that moment, Hou Chuan and two Special Forces Members were already standing at the door of Liu Guanfeng's study. These two members were instructors that Liu Guanfeng had sent out with Hou Chuan.
When Hou Chuan and the two instructors saw Liu Guanfeng arrive, they all knelt on one knee. "Master (Vice President)."
Liu Guanfeng waved his hand for them to rise. After getting them up, he stepped into his study, and the three followed him inside.
"You two have worked hard."
Two Special Forces Members said, "President, you are too polite. This is what we should do."
"How are those people training on Wolf Island?"
One of the Special Forces Members stepped forward to respond, "In response to the President, these team members are very diligent. All the tasks we assigned to them have been completed, and each of them now has their own Mount."
Liu Guanfeng was satisfied with this answer and said to the two Special Forces Members, "You two can leave for now. Later, go to the treasury to collect one hundred gold coins each as a reward."
"Thank you, President. We will take our leave." The two Special Forces members cupped their fists towards Liu Guanfeng and turned to leave the room.
After seeing them off, he smiled slightly at Hou Chuan and asked, "Hou Chuan, how did you feel about going out this time?"
"In response to my master, I truly gained a lot from this outing. When you first sent me out, I had some resistance, but after seeing the two instructors, I realized that my skills were indeed lacking. So I have been training quite diligently since then."
"What Mount did you contract?"
"In response to my master, I only contracted a Sixth Tier Mutated Wind Attribute Wolf."
"You've got some skills; being able to contract a mutated wolf is impressive. Hou Chuan, I have another task for you. Are you willing to take it on?"
Hou Chuan knelt down on both knees and replied, "I will follow my master's orders."
"Gather everyone who went out tonight in my courtyard. I will naturally inform you of the task details then."
"Yes, master."
"You can go now and rest well."
"Master, you should also take a rest. I won't disturb you any longer," said Hou Chuan as he turned and walked out.
After dinner, the sky gradually darkened. Under Hou Chuan's guidance, all the soldiers who had gone to Wolf Island for training gathered in Liu Guanfeng's courtyard. With the help of the lights, Liu Guanfeng could see that some of their faces still bore scars. Although a long time had passed, the marks were still clearly visible on their faces.
From this, Liu Guanfeng could tell how hard these individuals had trained. His voice was not loud, but over two hundred people in the courtyard could hear him clearly: "Welcome back. You have all suffered outside. However, avenging your parents for the sake of your homeland is worth it. Moreover, the opportunity for revenge is approaching. I hope you will not retreat at that time; you must show the same fighting spirit you had during your training on Wolf Island. Now, I am assigning you another mission. Remember, this mission will determine whether the uprising in the New World can succeed. Do you have the courage to try?"
"Yes," over two hundred voices answered in unison. The two individuals Liu Guanfeng had sent to Wolf Island were quite eloquent among the guards. After arriving at Wolf Island, they not only arranged training programs but also conducted ideological education as per Liu Guanfeng's requirements. At this moment, these individuals seemed completely brainwashed, showing absolute loyalty to the New World.
In their minds, Liu Guanfeng was like a godly figure—someone in his thirties with unfathomable strength and unique business acumen, who also owned such a vast island with tens of thousands of wild wolves as his private property. What an incredible feat that was! Therefore, those guards returning from Wolf Island believed Liu Guanfeng's words without question.
"Alright, you two hundred people will now be divided into four groups," Liu Guanfeng said as he stood there watching. Twenty individuals stepped forward from the ranks, each leading nine others. The rest followed their respective leaders quickly, forming four small squares in the courtyard with fifty people in each group.
In addition to Hou Chuan and the two instructors from Wolf Island, Liu Guanfeng assigned a member of the Special Forces to each of the four groups. He then stated: "You see the person in front of you; from now on, that person will be your captain. Everyone must unconditionally obey the captain's orders. Anyone who disobeys will be executed immediately. I sent you out to fight; there must be no mistakes. Do you understand?"
"We understand," came the loud response once again.
Liu Guanfeng nodded in satisfaction and said: "You can return to your rooms to rest now. Tomorrow morning, your captain will inform you of your mission. Now, at my command, disperse."
After Liu Guanfeng issued the command to disperse, the two hundred guards immediately scattered without making a sound during the entire process. Even as they moved together, their footsteps were remarkably quiet; one would hardly know that two hundred people were walking.
This was exactly the kind of team Liu Guanfeng wanted. He smiled and nodded at Hou Chuan and the two instructors before addressing the four captains: "Come with me to my study."
Liu Guanfeng returned to his study first, followed closely by the four captains.
Liu Guanfeng sat down in his chair while the four captains stood before him: "Hou Chuan, Golden Mad Eagle, Wang Ying, Liu Jiang—I have called you here today for a challenging and dangerous mission. Are you willing to go?"
"Willing," they all replied in unison.
"Very well, your mission is to take your respective squads into the four major cities of Luo Heng Island and wait for our army to arrive at the city gates before opening them. If even a hint of this mission leaks out, all of you will face total annihilation. Additionally, you may encounter thousands of soldiers. Are you not afraid?"
"We are not afraid."
"Good, I will assign your tasks now. Golden Mad Eagle, you will take your squad to Winter City; Wang Ying, you will lead your team to Autumn City; Liu Jiang, you will go to Summer City, and as for the capital's Spring City, that will be entrusted to Hou Chuan. Do you have confidence in completing this arduous task?"
"We guarantee to complete the mission."
"Alright, you each find a time to leave, but do not leave together; that would make you too big of a target. When you depart, each of you should go to the treasury and withdraw ten thousand gold coins. Once you arrive at your destinations, you will fight independently. If funds are insufficient, you can directly approach the Merchant Guild shops in each city for withdrawals. Make sure to keep these four tokens safe." Liu Guanfeng pulled out four iron tokens from his pocket; the front side bore Chinese characters while the back featured a five-clawed golden dragon.
The four individuals each took a token and placed it in their pockets, standing straight as they awaited Liu Guanfeng's instructions.
"Remember, many of you may not return from this mission, so do not be stingy with food and lodging; let our warriors eat well, drink well, and enjoy themselves as much as possible. As for everything else, handle it as you see fit. I won't say more; let me conclude with this: 'Be cautious in all matters and return home safely!'"
"Thank you, President."
"You may leave now. Take some time to rest over the next few days."
After bidding farewell to Liu Guanfeng, the four turned and left his study.
Starting the next day, the four captains briefed their team members. Over the course of a week, many guards discreetly left the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in pairs or small groups, appearing like ordinary guests and drawing no attention from outsiders. Thus, a group of two hundred people quietly vanished within the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
