It was noon at the Beijing military compound.
An extremely low-key BMW slowly drove into a retro courtyard. Wherever it passed, no one dared to question it.
Ye Chen walked out of the car while carrying his daughter. The young man from before lifted his hand at the courtyard. "Mr. Ye, our boss is inside. Please!"
Two fully armed sentries stood at the entrance of the courtyard house. Their figures were tall and straight, and they looked straight ahead like two statues.
Just when Ye Chen was going in while carrying his daughter, the two sentries stopped him all of a sudden. They looked at Mengmeng who was in his embrace expressionlessly. "This child can't go in. Also, we're going to search her. Please cooperate with us."
Ye Chen looked cold. "Move away!"
Just when the two sentries were going to search him by force, an extremely majestic voice came from the house. "Let them in."
The two of them then moved aside. Ye Chen carried his daughter and walked in without saying a word. The door was then closed.
The decorations in the house were simple. However, there were many calligraphy hanging on the wall, especially one that read, 'Those who offend my China will be killed no matter how far away you are!'.
The brush was bold and powerful. It was eye-catching.
At that moment, an old man in a Chinese tunic suit walked out of the cubicle. He was of medium height and was approximately 60 years old.
Although the old man looked mediocre, his eyes were extremely sharp as if he could see through everything in the world with just a glance. Most importantly, he was exuding a righteous aura at all times.
Meanwhile, there was a young man in a suit behind the old man. The young man had a crew cut and looked honest. He had thick brows and big eyes. He was approximately 30 years old, and there was a battle intent in his eyes when he looked at Ye Chen occasionally.
The old man in the Chinese tunic suit wrapped a tobacco leaf and said to Ye Chen kindly, "Should I call you Ye Chen or Mad Southern Ye?"
"You can call me whatever you want, Commander Chen."
Ye Chen smiled calmly and had his eyes on the young man behind the old man because he sensed a battle intent.
In reality, he had figured out the old man's identity since he walked in.
He was the commander-in-chief of the military, Old Chen.
The old man in the Chinese tunic suit wrapped the tobacco leaf and reached out to take a cigarette from the young man's hand. After lighting it up, he began to smoke.
"Alright then, I'll call you Ye Chen. You don't have to call me Commander Chen. Just call me Old Chen, or you can call me Director Chen."
"Sit, don't just stand there."
As he spoke, he took the initiative to hand over a stool.
Ye Chen sat down while carrying his daughter. His expression remained the same as if the person standing before him was just an ordinary old farmer.
A look of admiration flashed in Old Chen's eyes. "I invited you here today mainly for two things. First, I represent the Chinese military to invite you to join the special forces brigade and become the chief instructor of the Divine Arms Battalion."
"Old Chen, I've already said that I have two conditions," Ye Chen said.
"The first condition you mentioned is that after you join, you will not interfere with the Divine Strategy Battalion's matters, much less come to train, right? I can promise you that. "
Old Chen nodded. Subsequently, he said while frowning, "As for your second condition, I can't promise you the Geographical Vein just yet because I don't know where the Geographical Vein is at the moment. However, I can promise you that I'll definitely find it if there's one."
Ye Chen smiled lightly. "The day the Geographical Vein is found will be the day I officially join the Divine Arms Battalion."
"You've got guts, brat. You're the first person who dares to negotiate with me."
Old Chen laughed out loud and changed the topic. "Let me ask you. Is there a grudge between you and the Su family?"
"Old Chen, you have sharp eyes."
Ye Chen squinted and took a good look at him. He admitted it openly.
He was not surprised at all. If the military could not even find that, they would be no different from trash.
Old Chen looked straight at him. "So, you're here in Beijing to destroy the Song family?"
"That's right."
Ye Chen answered honestly.
"Young man!"
Old Chen took a deep breath in, and the aura on his body changed. "How dare you admit to me that you want to destroy the Su family? Do you think that you can come and go as you please in my place? "
His voice fell.
The young man who was standing behind him took a step forward. The ground did not show any signs of cracking, but a majestic force charged at Ye Chen through the ground at high speed.
Ye Chen stepped onto the ground softly.
He dissolved the force instantly. At the same time, surprise flashed through the young man's face behind Old Chen. The battle intent in his eyes when he looked at Ye Chen was growing.
"Since I, Ye Chen, dared to come here alone, naturally, I have the confidence to leave safely. Moreover, I don't think Old Chen has any enmity toward me."
Ye Chen said without changing his expression.
"Mad Southern Ye, you're even crazier than the rumors say."
Instead of being mad, Old Chen smiled. The admiration in his eyes was getting more obvious. "Do you want to hear me out?"
"Go ahead, Old Chen."
Old Chen wiped the smile off his face and said in his deep voice, "This is Beijing, the capital of China. I don't want you to stir up trouble. Even if you're Mad Southern Ye and the No. 1 on the Heaven Leaderboard, you can't challenge the country's bottom line. Do you understand?"
"Are you trying to stop me from touching the Su family, Old Chen?" Ye Chen squinted as his smile turned cold.
"Touch the Su family?"
Old Chen said in all seriousness, "The situation in Beijing is complicated. Meanwhile, the Su family has a deputy national level, two high officials, five director-level people, and one-third of their direct descendants in the military. Tell me, how are you going to touch them?"
Ye Chen said nothing, but he was secretly a little surprised. Never had he thought that the Su family, one of the eight clans in Beijing, would possess such great power despite looking insignificant.
"Young man, sometimes you can't solve things with just your strength alone. Are you going to kill them with your sword? Then? Then, the Su family will retaliate! "Old Chen proceeded to say.
Ye Chen shook his head and said in a noncommittal manner, "But I still think that nothing can withstand a single blow from absolute power."
"So, do you think your power is above the law? Do you want to go against a country? "
Old Chen looked dignified without being angry. "Moreover, this is the country that gave birth to you and raised you. Your ancestors have been living and sleeping on this land for generations. Your parents have even enjoyed benefits such as subsidies and medical insurance from the country."
Ye Chen said coldly, "I never said that."
Old Chen stared at him for a few seconds and said, "Therefore, you must do things within the scope of the law. For example, if the Su family is corrupt and violates the country's interests, and the boss falls from power, you, the major general of the Firearms Division, will have the right to kill the traitors.
"Of course, I'm just saying if. I don't mean anything else. Don't overthink it and put away those dangerous thoughts of yours."
Old Chen looked sincere as he spoke to this point.
The corner of Ye Chen's lips twitched slightly as he nodded calmly. "Don't worry, Old Chen. I know what to do."
"Alright, go back. I won't ask you to stay for dinner. The food here is simple. You won't get used to it."
Old Chen turned around, looking rather dispirited. "Xiaotian, send them out personally."
Ye Chen carried his daughter and walked out of the courtyard house. The young man in the suit led the father and daughter out of the military courtyard without saying a word.
"Thank you!"
Ye Chen said coldly.
The young man in the suit lifted his eyes to look at him. He said while scratching his head, "Did you bully my sister?"
Ye Chen was slightly stunned. He failed to react at that moment.
"You bullied my sister. I really want to beat you up."
The young man in the suit was in a dilemma. He looked at the courtyard house. "But the boss doesn't allow me to fight anyone. I'm in a dilemma. Why don't we fight when I'm free one day? No matter who wins or loses, I'll let you go for bullying my sister. "
"Sure!"
Ye Chen smiled and left while carrying his daughter. However, he could not stop recalling as he walked.
'When did I bully his sister?'
…
In the courtyard house.
Soon after Ye Chen left, a middle-aged man in military uniform walked out of the house. He looked at Old Chen who was practicing calligraphy and hesitated to speak, "Commander, aren't you being unfair today? You're hinting at him in such a crazy way. "
Old Chen didn't say a word. When the last stroke was done, a big "Su" character appeared.
A faintly discernible voice rang out.
"Some people seem to have gotten carried away all these years. They think that No.1 can't lift a saber anymore. Isn't a saber delivered just in time?"
