Chapter 57 Poor Eyesight

Dao Repository?

Soon, Ji Jingqiu got the answer from Li Buyi.

Dao Repository is the Legacy of the Dao School of Martial Arts.

Decades ago, a mysterious rumor quickly spread throughout the Federation: East 3 Huang Star contained a Dao Repository left behind by Marshal Ji.

Although the rumor was quickly confirmed as false, the higher-ups of the Supreme True Buddha Sect seem to have a different view and have been making moves on the East 3 Huang Star in recent years.

Ji Jingqiu shook her head, feeling it was a bit outrageous.

Since it’s the Dao Repository left by Marshal Ji, how could it be anyone else’s turn? Do you think the Ji Family is just freeloaders?

He now wants to know how Dao obtained the spiritual secrets and accompanying physical cultivation techniques of the 【 Fire Dwelling Buddhist Hell Contemplation Diagram 】 from the Supreme True Buddha Sect.

Having become familiar with the spiritual network of the Supreme True Buddha Sect, Ji Jingqiu prepared to leave.

Today’s objective has been achieved, and we’ve also included some inside information, but unfortunately, we didn’t get a list of the moles.

A fire of light blazed above his head, and the bodhi tree sprouted branches and leaves, as if taking root in this Buddhist kingdom and regarding it as nourishment.

During the waiting period.

Looking at the pure white Buddha statue sitting quietly with its eyes closed, Ji Jingqiu felt that her eyesight had been a little poor lately, and in a daze, she saw herself sitting there in its place.

After returning to the Pure Land.

Ji Jingqiu began to think about tomorrow’s “secret” mission.

There’s a mole within the Security Bureau, so information can’t be shared, and most importantly, he can’t explain the source of the information.

However, Master Yang mentioned earlier that this mission was assisted by the Security Bureau and the Public Security Bureau, meaning that he was in charge and there was room for maneuver in the matter.

All you need to do is find an excuse to act ahead of time.

…

The next day.

A fierce and burly figure appeared in front of the martial arts school and took Ji Jingqiu and Yang Yao away.

It was none other than an acquaintance of theirs, Zhang Xingshan’s second elder brother, Zhang Xingyi.

” Security Bureau? They’re busy cleaning up their own mess right now.”

Zhang Xingyi gloated whenever the Security Bureau was mentioned.

“Let me explain the situation to you first.”

Zhang Xingyi picked up the terminal and tossed it to the two people behind him.

As a screen of light rose, it displayed a fierce -looking man with bulging arm muscles and an exceptionally thick chest, exuding a powerful aura.

Before Zhang Xingyi could speak, Yang Yao pointed at the man’s finger on the screen and said to Ji Jingqiu… Dao:

“Look, this person has large finger joints, he must be a master of close-quarters grappling. When you fight this kind of person, you must be careful when you get close.”

Also, did you see the lines on his arms? Those aren’t tattoos, they’re implants. He’s a Martial Artist who abandoned the future to pursue immediate power.

Ji Jingqiu kept nodding; these details were pure experience.

Zhang Xingyi, the driver in front Dao: “That’s right, this person is called Cheng Yan. He’s the leader of a newly emerging gang in the lower ranks. A few years ago, he forged a lower-level martial arts body and then had an implant transplanted. He’s extremely formidable. Last time, the two True Seeds accompanying the Security Bureau…” He killed one Martial Artist and seriously wounded another.

Yang Yao’s eyes gleamed: “This man’s implant is no ordinary item. Whether a gang leader like him has the financial resources is another matter, but the troublesome one is Qu Dao. He probably has powerful backers. Ordinary Divine Travel…” Martial Artist may not be able to take him down anytime soon.

“Are you confident?” Zhang Xingyi asked seriously. “This person is a huge problem for us. We don’t have Divine Travel right now.” Martial Artists provided the support.

Yang Yao Dao: “Where is your deputy minister?”

“We and the deputy ministerial level officials from the Security Bureau have all been banned from participating in this secret mission. The last escort mission failed, and the Municipal Government suspects that the deputy ministerial level officials leaked the information.”

Yang Yao wasn’t surprised.

After the attack at the last martial arts tournament, he and Master suspected that there were moles among the deputy ministers of various departments in Taian City.

“Then I’ll take care of this person.” Yang Yao stared at the light screen and slowly said, “There shouldn’t be any problems.”

Zhang Xingyi grinned and said, “Your martial arts school has always been known for its humility. Since you’ve said that, then there’s definitely no problem.”

Yang Yao smiled.

“Aside from Cheng Yan, there aren’t any other Martial Artists who are too difficult to deal with.”

“The main difficulty of this mission is that we must ensure the safety of the girl, so we cannot use a large number of firearms.”

” The safest course of action is for Martial Artists to infiltrate and rescue the people. Once you find them, send us a message and we will launch a full-scale attack to meet you.”

Yang Yao raised an eyebrow: “Aren’t you coming in with me?”

Zhang Xingyi’s rugged face showed a hint of shyness as he said, “I’ve been appointed as the commander-in-chief this time, so I can’t participate.”

Yang Yao exclaimed in astonishment: “Wow, you’re the commander-in-chief of this operation? You’re getting a promotion!”

Zhang Xingyi immediately perked up: “It was Secretary Zhang who suggested that I take overall command. I have to thank Jingqiu for this! I’m benefiting from his help, it’s all because of what happened last time!”

After reviewing the documents and action plan, Ji Jingqiu suddenly asked, “Second Brother, why are we only starting the operation at 8 PM?”

“What’s wrong? Do you think the timing is inappropriate?”

Ji Jingqiu said seriously: “Let’s move it forward. If there’s a mole within our ranks, then this mission has likely already been leaked.”

Zhang Xingyi pondered for a moment and said, “We’ve been monitoring them, and so far we haven’t detected any signs of them moving. But… since Jingqiu said to move it up, then let’s do it up. You’re my lucky charm!”

Ji Jingqiu Dao: “We’ll move out at five o’clock!”

“good!”

…

…

Lower level.

Inside the dilapidated house, the wooden stairs creaked eerily underfoot.

“Boss, the woman has been drugged as you instructed, and she won’t wake up for two days.”

Listening to his subordinate’s report, Cheng Yan nodded without saying a word, wiping the knuckle duster in his hand. The light from the oil lamp danced on his rugged profile, and in the interplay of light and shadow, his eyes were deep and sharp.

“Boss…should we go somewhere else?” the underling asked uneasily. “I have a feeling we’re being watched here.”

Cheng Yan glanced at the time and said in a hoarse voice, “If no one comes to pick up the package before six o’clock, we’ll move to another location.”

“Understood,” the younger brother replied, but still didn’t leave.

“What’s wrong?” Cheng Yan looked up at him, her brows furrowing slightly.

“Boss…we’ve offended the Public Security Bureau and the Security Bureau this time, do we even have a chance of survival?”

Cheng Yan did not answer, but tilted her head slightly and fell into a long silence in the shadow of the light.

“…There shouldn’t be any left.” After a long while, he remained expressionless.

“Oh.” The underling pursed his lips. “It’s alright, boss. We don’t regret following you at all. We’ve worked our way up to this point, so it’s been worth it in our lives!”

The man picked up his gun and turned to leave.

Cheng Yan’s tense face twitched slightly.

He sat behind the light, his gaze more profound than the shadows.

Some things have a price tag from the beginning. The outcome was already predetermined when he chose to accept that contract a few years ago.

Compared to A-mei being able to escape this garbage dump and see the sky and the sun outside, his death is really nothing to regret.

It’s a pity about the brothers who followed him.

Of course, in a fair assessment, none of them died in vain.

His lips curled slightly, a smile that was both mocking and sarcastic, as he awaited his death.
