Chapter 225 The Legend of the Chase
Lu Fei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Li Wen and Lao Wang? Then I'm relieved."

But soon she hugged Xu Feng again and explained with a smile, "Of course, I know your strength too."

Donnie Yen is a legend, and so are you.

Xu Feng rubbed her head: "Haha, don't worry, General Zhang said so."

If I can retrieve the equipment this time, I'll be given a chance to cultivate in the Divine Cleansing Pool.

"The Cleansing Pool!!!" Lu Fei's eyes widened.

Xu Feng smiled and said, "That's right. It seems you know this, so you should understand that this opportunity is rare."

And you know me, I will act within my means.

If it's truly impossible, I won't force myself to do it.

After all, the Cleansing Pool isn't essential for me.

Lu Fei covered her mouth and laughed, "Haha, that's more like you!"

Xu Feng chuckled, kissed her, and then glanced upstairs: "Don't tell Xiao Dan too much."

"I know," Lu Fei nodded.

Xu Feng then changed his gear, turned around, and went out.

"A-kun!"

Swish!
Ah Kun caught up instantly and flew off into the distance.

Ten minutes later.

An attack helicopter roared into the air and headed straight for the outskirts of the city.

Inside the helicopter, howling winds rushed into the cabin.

I glanced at the location on my wristwatch; the device was 252 kilometers away from the base.

The other party is fleeing towards Southeast Asia.

Xu Feng looked down at the tablet in his hand, which contained all the intelligence data and analysis about Zheng Zidan sent by Gu Cheng.

Upon seeing a certain passage, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he raised an eyebrow: "Heh, there really are such melodramatic lives."

Xu Feng shouted to the driver, "When we're 20 kilometers from the target, find a place to descend!"

"understand!"

The driver gave a thumbs up.

Then, Xu Feng looked at Li Wen and said loudly, "Mr. Li, I am really sorry for this sudden action."

The situation was urgent, and you have the strongest close-combat ability, which is why I asked you to come along.

Li Wen waved his hand expressionlessly, then asked with concern, "How's your Baguazhang practice going? When can we spar again?"

Xu Feng, both amused and exasperated, exclaimed, "Do you know how important this mission is?"

Li Wen casually shook his head: "It's not important to me!"

"Have you heard of Zheng Zidan?" Xu Feng asked again.

Li Wen frowned: "Never heard of it, is it very strong?"

Wang Lin, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

Xu Feng suddenly felt that if someone else said this, he would think that the other person was pretentious.

But Li Wen said this because he probably really didn't know.

And even if he knew, it would seem reasonable for him to say, "Is it very strong?"

Xu Feng took a deep breath and smiled as he asked Li, "Your Baguazhang is alright, but not enough to beat you!"
However, after this mission is completed, we'll find an opportunity to spar and see how my cultivation progress is.

Li Wen's eyes lit up: "Great!"

He then leaned against the bulkhead and closed his eyes to rest.

Ok.

Xu Feng glanced at Wang Lin speechlessly.

Wang Lin shrugged.

This guy is really just interested in martial arts.

Everything else is ignored.

No wonder it's so strong.

During the time the plane was chasing them, Zheng Zidan escaped for over a hundred kilometers.

The sky was filled with the roar of fighter jets and patrol planes.

The entire area within a radius of 500 kilometers of Base 9 was "illuminated".

Even if Zheng Zidan runs incredibly fast, he is still human.

Even under constant surveillance, the terrain can still have an impact.

Therefore, it was only a matter of time before they were caught up.

The other party should have anticipated this.

Such a powerful soldier would surely not ignore any possibility and deceive himself by telling himself that there was no tracking device in the equipment.

Therefore, they are very likely facing a well-prepared enemy!

"Prepare!"

"Jump!"

At Xu Feng's command, the three of them leaped dozens of meters into the air and plummeted into the forest.

Boom!Boom!
Ta~
As the three landed in the forest, Xu Feng quickly confirmed the direction and then rushed out.

however.

No one thought of it.

Throughout the rest of the night, Xu Feng and his men kept chasing Zheng Zidan in circles through the mountains.

The group pursued them relentlessly, but they were always left behind.

But this guy would often stop in one place, as if waiting for them to chase him.

"Something's not right with this guy. I have a feeling he's deliberately stalling for time."

Wang Lin frowned.

Li Wen glanced at the map: "We're getting close to the Myanmar region."

"Are there any other forces around here? There are only five forces in the 13th Dimension right now, right? I haven't heard of any of the other forces."

Xu Feng asked in surprise.

Wang Lin explained, "Some higher-level dimensional realms do exist, but we're not sure about Dimensional Realm 13."

But during previous missions, I heard that a group of warriors from the Shiva region and the Eagle Alliance were active in the Southeast Asian area, and they seemed to have gained considerable influence.

Xu Feng looked at Wang Lin: "So, besides the five major powers, there are many smaller powers that haven't been included in the official statistics?"

Wang Lin nodded and said, "Yes."

Xu Feng frowned and said, "Zheng Zidan definitely didn't come to steal the treasure alone."

They were able to infiltrate the base, obtain intelligence, blow up the laboratory, and then successfully escape.

Only with long-term planning, meticulous execution, and the support of a powerful background can these things be accomplished.

In other words, he must be supported by one or more of the other four major regions.

It's even possible that people from all five major regions are eyeing this equipment.

Wang Lin raised an eyebrow and said, "You mean internally within the Great Xia Dynasty as well?"

Xu Feng's eyes darkened: "This isn't the first time something like this has happened."

Thinking back to what Wang Long had experienced, he knew that people's hearts are always greedy and unpredictable.

Li Wen stood up and said, "Don't worry about who's behind us, just find a way to block him."

Xu Feng raised an eyebrow and said, "Then let's split up and surround them?"

"Separate? Are you sure?" A dangerous glint flashed in Wang Lin's eyes.

"Hmm," Xu Feng sneered, "If he wants to play, then let's play it to the fullest!"

"Great!" Li Wen's eyes lit up. "Let's go!"

Swish!
Immediately, the three split into three groups and headed towards the target location.

The earth should belong to the border between Myanmar and Myanmar.

In a forest.

Xu Feng suddenly stopped in one spot and looked around.

Under the influence of his telekinetic power, a figure was crouching on the tree above his head, poised to strike.

a moment.

The two people, one in the tree and one below, moved almost simultaneously.

The figure in the tree suddenly plummeted down like a hawk swooping down on a sheep.

Xu Feng, standing beneath the tree, suddenly drew his sword upwards as if struck by lightning.

boom!
boom!
A loud, deafening roar exploded between the two of them.

The powerful airflow exploded violently, overturning and breaking all the vegetation within a radius of tens of meters.

The two figures separated immediately after touching.

"Impressive skills, but you think you can catch me with that? Great Xia is underestimating me!"

In the sky, the figure in the tattered military green combat uniform laughed loudly.

But the next moment.

His pupils contracted.

But Xu Feng, who had been thrown back to the ground, suddenly rose up and crashed into his arms.

The speed was so fast that Zheng Zidan had no time to react.

He instinctively tried to parry with his sword.

Suddenly, Xu Feng twisted his sword, which then passed right through the sword and struck him hard!
boom!
A knife through the heart.

The sword slammed into the combat suit, sending Zheng Zidan flying.

A look of surprise finally appeared on Zheng Zidan's face as he hovered in mid-air.

He was about to turn around and adjust his posture.

But Xu Feng unexpectedly took to the air once again.

As if he didn't need to land to absorb the force, he appeared in front of him and slashed upwards with his sword!

Zheng Zidan immediately realized something was wrong.

If he doesn't react the first time.

This time, he finally realized that there was an "invisible force" in Xu Feng!
Spiritualist!

As the thought flashed through his mind, Zheng Zidan suddenly reached out and slapped Xu Feng's battle knife.

Just one shot.

He actually used the force to instantly turn around and crashed towards the ground.

hum!
Xu Feng hadn't expected this guy to make such a move. Just as he was about to land, Xu Feng suddenly unleashed a mental storm.

He then slashed at the back of the neck with his blade!
boom!
The sword, like a steel whip, struck Zheng Zidan on the back, sending him crashing into the forest.

Unfortunately, it was still a little short and I couldn't strike that guy's vitals.

This blow actually accelerated its descent.

As soon as it hit the ground.

Zheng Zidan instantly disappeared into the forest.

"!"

Xu Feng was also taken aback.

What a quick response!
Last time, Mites was beaten all the way up into the sky and then tortured to death in the same way.

I never expected Zheng Zidan to react so quickly!

Xu Feng landed with a whoosh; this guy is really something.

If an ordinary person were attacked by him repeatedly like this, they probably wouldn't be able to maintain such "clear thinking".

After all, most martial artists have rarely faced mentalists.

This person's combat skills are truly terrifying, completely incomparable to the likes of Mithras.

"Watch out, he's heading north! Chase after him!"

"puff!"

Several kilometers away, in a thicket, Zheng Zidan spat out a mouthful of blood and gave a bitter smile: "I was careless."

Then a look of shock appeared in his eyes: "Hmph, no wonder he dared to send several beginners to chase me."

Unexpectedly, there was a mentalist among them. This gives us a chance to break in.

He took a deep breath, got up, and continued running towards the border.

He knew, of course, that he was playing with fire and walking a tightrope.

But he had no choice.

"I have no choice. Brothers, wait for me!"

His eyes narrowed, and he pressed forward again.

Swish!
Immediately, he leaped up again and raced towards Hornbill Valley.

“Look, there’s blood here. He must have crossed the mountains.”

Bengshan Line, along the Daying River.

Xu Feng looked down at the bloodstains on the ground and said.

Wang Lin frowned and said, "Once we cross the Tiemobeng Mountain, we're outside the base's radiation range."

"Come and see this!"

at this time.

Li Wen, who was more than ten meters away, suddenly shouted.

The two walked over and saw that a stone tablet had been erected on the ground.

"Wolf Eagle Alliance? What's that?"

Xu Feng asked in surprise.

Wang Lin glanced around: "You can think of this as the border." Xu Feng pondered: "So, there really are forces entrenched here?"

Wang Lin stood up and said, "That's right, should we still chase after them?"

Xu Feng glanced at Li Wen, who was looking at him, and said, "I'll do whatever you say."

Xu Feng immediately nodded: "Continue!"

The three then continued their pursuit along the trail of blood left by Zheng Zidan.

"Have you fought him all?"

In the woods, Xu Feng ran and asked questions.

"We've already fought. I'm not as good as him in close combat, but he's not as ruthless as me."

Wang Lin said frankly.

Finally, he added, "Or rather, he didn't kill him."

Li Wen said calmly, "This person is experienced and a master."

Their attacks were all rudimentary killing moves from military formations, but they were direct and effective.

However, when he made his moves, he always held back, seemingly not intending to kill.

Xu Feng nodded thoughtfully: "We have the same feeling."

Li Wen glanced at Xu Feng: "What do you mean?"

Xu Feng shook his head: "Focus on the target, we can deal with the rest after we catch them."

After chasing for ten kilometers, Wang Lin suddenly called a halt: "With his methods, he would never leave such obvious traces."

I have a feeling he's leading us here; there might be an ambush.

Xu Feng pondered for a moment, then shook his head: "What's the point of ambushing the three of us?"

Wang Lin also couldn't quite understand this problem.

After all, the logic of a normal person is to steal something and run away.

Instead of "swaying" like Zheng Zidan.

Li Wen took the lead and walked forward: "Why don't we go and see for ourselves? We can ask him about this once we catch him."

Xu Feng smiled upon hearing this and said, "That's true."

continue!

Go deeper!

Across the Daying River.

In the wild mountains and forests.

A dilapidated outpost, resembling a small town, stands like a secluded paradise on a hillside.

In contrast to the desolation around it, the outpost was bustling with activity and filled with dust.

Carriages and horses kept emerging from the mountains and forests and merging into the area.

At the same time, many vehicles also drove out.

The entire outpost looked extremely lively.

however.

From a distance, there were no flags of any faction on the outpost.

The only flag depicts a fierce wolf and an iron eagle facing each other.

It was on a cliff about two kilometers away from the outpost.

Zheng Zidan sat casually on the edge of the cliff, one leg dangling over the edge, quietly watching the outpost in the distance.

Looking back on the journey, the past glories and the present humiliation and disgrace.

His face was filled with disappointment and endless hatred.

"Shh!"

As a cold blade pressed against his neck, Zheng Zidan's body stiffened slightly, but he quickly breathed a sigh of relief.

"What, it seems you've been waiting for us on purpose?"

Xu Feng stood quietly behind Zheng Zidan, looking at the outpost in the distance.

He recalled the ridiculous background information Gu Cheng had given him and speculated: "You didn't take on the mission to steal equipment because of this outpost."

Then they wanted to use this incident to attract experts from the Great Xia military to come here.

Then I'll help you deal with these mercenaries, okay?

Zheng Zidan remained silent for a long while, then asked in shock, "How did you know all this?"

Xu Feng was speechless for a while before frowning and saying, "To be honest, when I saw the intelligence report about the return of a so-called 'King of Soldiers' and the discovery that his daughter was living in a doghouse..."

When his brother helped him, they were all severely injured and captured by mercenaries.

I really thought my friend was writing a novel.

Zheng Zidan gave a wry smile: "If only it were just a novel."

Xu Feng frowned and asked, "Why didn't you explain the situation to the authorities?"
I don't think the Great Xia would abandon its own people, especially those who have rendered meritorious service.

Zheng Zidan turned to look at him, his face full of surprise: "Is this your first day in the workforce?"

Xu Feng paused for a moment, then brought the blade a few inches closer to his neck: "You think you're so great?"

Zheng Zidan raised his hands and honestly explained, "I have no powerful backers, and my boss is very dissatisfied with my arrogant behavior in the past."

When I was young, I did do a lot of things that made my superiors lose face.

Reality has made me suffer enough from this.

Besides, no one will stand up for a group of retired veterans because there aren't enough benefits to be gained.

Xu Feng shook his head slightly: "To be honest, your story is indeed very tragic."

I haven't experienced your suffering, so naturally I can't persuade you to do good.

However, you stole our things, and our orders are to retrieve them.

Therefore, I don't care about anything else, I just want the equipment.

Hand it over; I don't want to harm a legend.

After all, I've read about your past. Even now, you've never killed a member of the Great Xia military.

For that reason alone, I can be more lenient with you.

However, Zheng Zidan shook his head: "I really don't know how someone as naive as you has managed to get to where you are today."

The fact that you're pursuing me suggests that besides your abilities, your status is probably quite high as well.

But I'm sorry, I can't agree to that.

I've hidden the equipment; no one but me can find it.

Unless you agree to my conditions, I will not tell you where the equipment is.

Xu Feng pursed his lips.

He knew, of course, that things wouldn't be resolved so simply.

But I still want to give it a try.

It's no trouble at all to give it a try, and what if it works?
But okay.

Reality taught him that nothing in this world is ever as one-sided as wishful thinking.

Just as he wouldn't help someone for no reason.

It is indeed difficult to comment on Zheng Zidan's situation.

But what does this have to do with him?
He is not a saint.

"You know that the Great Xia government has never negotiated with terrorists."

Since you won't cooperate, I have no choice but to take you back.

After all, the authorities don't necessarily have to take the equipment back. As long as no other force gets control of it, it doesn't matter.

If all else fails, we can just rebuild one.

After all, you said yourself that no one but you could find it, right?
In other words, once I bring you back, my mission is complete.

Upon hearing Xu Feng's words, Zheng Zidan was also stunned: "You—"

"What are you!"

Before Zheng Zidan could react, Xu Feng's two broken blades and several throwing knives enveloped him from all directions.

At this distance, in this sitting posture.

Xu Feng could kill Zheng Zidan instantly if he made any unusual move.

"despair--"

Xu Feng threw out the specially made shackles.

"As for your comrades-in-arms, daughter, and the like, we will report to our superiors after we take you back."

I firmly believe that the authorities will not stand idly by while their own people are arrested, especially those who have previously distinguished themselves.

After a long silence, Zheng Zidan finally smiled.

A disappointed smile.

"It seems you are not quite aware of my abilities."

He suddenly spoke.

As he spoke, he moved, intending to exchange injury for freedom.

Before he could even get up, he was enveloped by an invisible force.

That power was so terrifying that it almost made your skin crack.

It was as if the moment the other party made a thought, they would instantly die.

Zheng Zidan stared in astonishment at the seemingly ordinary dagger in Xu Feng's hand.

Xu Feng replied calmly, "It seems you are not very clear about my abilities."

Zheng Zidan exclaimed in shock, "Divine power surpassing even the God of War?"

Xu Feng shrugged: "Is there a problem?"

Zheng Zidan took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.

He really didn't expect that the other party would directly block all his ideas and ways out with one move.

I thought it was already quite remarkable that the Great Xia had sent such a skilled expert.

As it turned out, things were even more shocking than he had imagined.

He was completely desperate.

What's the point of going back like this?
He lay back as if he had given up completely, and didn't even touch the shackles.

Xu Feng was speechless.

A person who is not even afraid of death is not much of a threat.

Think for a moment.

Xu Feng suddenly spoke up: "Now you should know my identity. This stalemate can't go on."

How about this, let's compromise: you tell me where the equipment is, and I'll go back and report it for you.

Given my position, my words should carry some weight, even without the backing of others.

His words were like a lifeline, giving Zheng Zidan, who was on the verge of drowning, a glimmer of hope.

He sat up abruptly and looked at Xu Feng: "How can I believe what you say?"

Xu Feng thought for a moment, then raised the dagger in his hand: "Just this."

Zheng Zidan's pupils contracted, then he pursed his lips and sat back down.

"The equipment is located 13 kilometers north of here, under a giant cedar tree."

That cedar tree was the tallest tree there, very conspicuous.

Xu Feng repeated the message into the communicator, and then began a long wait.

Shortly after.

Wang Lin's voice came through the communicator: "The item has been found, intact."

Xu Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

He then looked at Zheng Zidan again: "You didn't lie to me after all."

“Because it’s meaningless,” Zheng Zidan shook his head. “Once I make a decision, I won’t question it.”

Right or wrong, it's all a choice you made.

Xu Feng shrugged, sheathed his battle sword, and also sheathed his throwing knife.

"What do you mean?" Zheng Zidan looked at him, somewhat puzzled.

Xu Feng let out a slight sigh: "I said, the Great Xia government will not abandon any of its own people."

All those things I said to you before, and how I tried to reason with you, were just to achieve my goal.

Now that we have the equipment, there's no point in targeting you anymore.

Actually, after seeing those things in the intelligence reports, I planned to do something.

However, I don't know you.

Furthermore, if I inform you in advance, I fear there might be unforeseen circumstances, and I also worry about your emotional state.

"But can you represent the official position?" Zheng Zidan asked doubtfully.

Xu Feng smiled faintly and said, "Let me introduce myself."

Xu Feng, with the rank of Senior Colonel.

He is the chief engineer and belongs to the Engineering Department of Base 9.

Five prestigious universities jointly appointed lecturers and associate professors.

"A pioneering and meritorious warrior of the Great Xia era, have you heard of my name?"

“No.” Zheng Zidan shook his head.

Xu Feng: "."

The atmosphere was slightly awkward.

But when Zheng Zidan suddenly laughed, Xu Feng realized that the other party was actually in the mood to joke with him.

He turned and walked to the edge of the cliff: "In short, with my qualifications and status, I should be able to represent a part of the Great Xia government here, right?"

Zheng Zidan squinted at him for a while before thoughtfully saying, "So you are Xu Feng."
