Martial artists can never be ultimately insulted.

"Terracotta Army?!"

Upon hearing Yuan Chen's words, Tong Ang was slightly taken aback, and then pondered the connection between Hong Kong and the Terracotta Army during this period.

Seeing this, Yuan Chen didn't say much, only adding a simple note:

"They were speaking in hushed tones. I only heard words like mental energy, absorption, and Vega."

Vega...

Upon hearing this name, Tong Ang frowned almost imperceptibly.

Tong Ang was deeply impressed by this monster who was skilled in mental power, whose soul was immortal, and who could easily brainwash others.

Thinking this, Tong Ang nodded and said:

"If I remember correctly, six terracotta warriors will be exhibited in Hong Kong next week... This is a very important matter, and I need to go back to the Hong Kong headquarters now to confirm the relevant information."

Also, Chun-Li, you stay here. If Shadow Luo's people show up in this area again, notify me immediately.

"no problem."

Hearing her father's words, Chunli nodded seriously.

Hearing that Tong Ang was about to leave, Yuan Chen frowned slightly.

Although I don't remember it very clearly because of the long time that has passed, if Yuan Chen remembers correctly, in the "Chun-Li Legend" comic, Interpol and even the military organizations of many countries have been infiltrated by Vega's all-pervasive mental power.

Tong Ang's arrival in Hong Kong was immediately known to the members of Yingluo.

Just as Yuan Chen was thinking about how to remind Tong Ang, Yuan, who was standing to the side, cleared his throat a few times as he watched the group talking.

This attracted the attention of everyone present.

Feeling the gazes of everyone, Yuan asked, "Have you told anyone else about your whereabouts?"

"I came straight here after getting off the plane; no one else should know..."

After a moment's thought, Tong Ang replied, "I notified Interpol's Hong Kong headquarters before my arrival."

Upon hearing this, Yuan nodded in understanding and said, "I think you've been followed."

"track?"

Upon hearing this, Tong Ang was taken aback, then frowned and asked:

"Can you be sure?"

“Yes.” Standing by the railing of the attic, Yuan subtly gestured with his chin toward an alleyway and said:

"When I got back, I noticed someone was watching the hotel, and later I realized their target was you. If you came to see me as soon as you got off the plane, you'd better be careful about Interpol's Hong Kong headquarters—it may have been infiltrated by the Shadow Organization."

Upon hearing Yuan's words, Yuan Chen thought to himself that he truly deserved to be called the assassination master who had fought countless battles.

Even without my own understanding of the plot, I can still clearly discover those hidden details.

After hearing Yuan's instructions, Tong Ang and Chunli exchanged a glance, and then Tong Ang solemnly said:

“If my whereabouts have been exposed, then the next plan will need to be revised... In that case, let’s play along.”

As he spoke, Tong Ang also looked up at Chunli and said:

"Chunli, you stay here. Report to me immediately if anything happens. I will arrange some routine duty work to confuse the situation."

"And what about you, Father?" Chunli asked.

“I’m going to gather information about the Terracotta Army,” Tong Ang replied. “This mission is top secret. Only a small number of trustworthy people at Interpol headquarters know about it. The undercover agent won’t dare to act rashly before finding out the details.”

With that, Tong Ang arranged many things for Chun Li. After the schedule for the next period of time was arranged, Tong Ang bid farewell to everyone, took a taxi, and drove away towards the Hong Kong headquarters of Interpol.

On the second floor of the restaurant, Yuan Chen, Chun Li, and the others could clearly see that shortly after Tong Ang left in his taxi, a black sedan emerged from the street corner that Yuan had pointed out and followed Tong Ang's taxi.

Seeing this, Chun-Li's eyes also revealed a solemn expression—

Although I never doubted Grandpa Yuan's intuition, the effects of simply hearing about it and seeing it with my own eyes are completely different.

"It actually got infiltrated..."

"Rest now, Chunli, you don't need to worry too much."

Noticing the seriousness on Chunli's face, Yuan shook his head and said:

"Your father is a smart man; otherwise, he wouldn't have been assigned to be an undercover agent in Yingluo. Since he already has a plan in mind, just carry it out without worry..."

Moreover, those people were only monitoring you; they didn't know your purpose in arriving in Hong Kong and had no intention of killing you.

After a pause, Yuan also pointed to Yuan Chen beside him and said:

“Speaking of which, Chunli, why don’t you take Yuan Chen with you during this time? Let them get to know each other so you can look after each other when you arrive in the Battle Realm.”

Upon hearing this, Chunli smiled and then put her arm around Yuan Chen.

Because of her height and build, Chun-Li, who is 1.69 meters tall, is definitely not short among women, but when she puts her hand on Yuan Chen, it still looks like she is hanging on him.

With a beaming smile, Chun-Li said, "Don't worry, Grandpa! I've discovered Yuan-Chen's superpower, and I'll definitely try my best to build a good relationship with him!"

Seeing this, Yuan nodded in relief.

In fact, as soon as Yuan saw Chunli and Yuan Chen arrive here unharmed, he realized that Yuan Chen was using his life energy to heal Chunli's injuries.

However, since they are all family, Yuan wasn't too worried, and only gave some instructions:

"Be careful. These days, old men have long since retired from crime; they can't be of much help if something happens."

"Of course not!"

Upon hearing this, Chunli quickly waved her hand and said, "Yuanchen and I will do whatever it takes, we won't trouble Grandpa!!!"

"I have reservations about this."

Upon hearing Chunli's words, Yuan Chen shook his head.

"Grandpa Yuan is well past retirement age!" Upon hearing this, Chunli said with disdain, "Just let Grandpa enjoy his life!"

In response, Yuan Chen and Yuan exchanged a glance, and then the two of them shrugged indifferently.

This made Chunli feel inexplicably annoyed, but then she looked at Su Ye, moved her body to make sure there was nothing wrong, and then said with great interest:

"Speaking of which, I didn't feel quite satisfied with the last fight. Let's practice some more!"

"No problem!!" Upon hearing Chunli's challenge again, Yuan Chen's face also showed an enthusiastic and spirited expression.

Volume 1: 9. News from Sagat

Life began to become more fulfilling

During the time he lived with Yuan, Yuan Chen worked hard every day to build a solid foundation, feeling, mastering, and pushing life energy to make various attempts.

But throughout the entire process, Yuan Chen rarely encountered a peer of similar strength to spar and fight with.

He did fight Yuan... but the gap was too big. Facing such a martial arts legend, even if Yuan controlled his power to a level comparable to Yuan Chen's, the absolute difference in experience and skill made the outcome a foregone conclusion.

Chun-Li, yes!

Even so, Chunli still felt a sense of shame when she heard Yuan Chen's words and recaps.

However, after spending the past two days with Yuan Chen, Chun Li has come to understand Yuan Chen's character and knows that he is really just immersed in and enjoying the battle.

And...it really is very comfortable.

Thinking this, Chun-Li couldn't help but slightly contract her core muscles to calm her excited muscles and the strange feeling in her lower abdomen.

Although it's a little embarrassing to admit, Chun-Li has to acknowledge that Yuan-Chen's technique is really good.

Even without life energy, Yuan Chen has an excellent understanding of the pathways and structure of the human body's meridians, muscles, and bones.

Thinking this, Chunli felt the same sentiment as her father, Tong Ang.

Although he was only two years younger than me, Yuan Chen's development... was indeed too advanced.

At only eighteen years old, his physical strength already surpasses that of many martial artists in their prime, around thirty years old.

And it's still developing.

In another two years, his height will probably be approaching 1.9 meters.

If he were holding me, my toes probably wouldn't even touch the ground...

Thinking this, Chunli felt something was off, but then quickly realized that she seemed to be thinking too many things she shouldn't be thinking.

Realizing the unusual situation, Chunli quickly closed her eyes to calm herself down.

Fortunately, Qigong itself has the specialty of cultivating Qi. Although I felt ripples in my heart, I managed to suppress the impulse in my body. I just need to change my underwear as soon as possible.

Thinking about this, Chunli also felt a bit emotional—life energy is useful, but its attraction is too great.

The feeling of your body coming back to life is unforgettable once you've experienced it.

While she could feel her body getting better and better, she was also clearly aware that she might have developed some dependence...

Upon realizing that Yuan Chen had finished, Chun Li sat up as well.

Thanks to her experience a few days ago, she had prepared some things in advance, so there were no abrupt water stains when she pushed her hips. Chunli also stretched and yawned while relaxing.

As the cracking sounds of bones emanated from him, he had intended to praise Yuan Chen, but upon looking up, he found that Yuan Chen had politely looked away.

Looking down, Chun-Li swallowed hard, then said somewhat awkwardly, "Uh... I'll go take a shower first."

After washing up, Chunli changed into her Interpol uniform and greeted Yuan Chen, who had also finished washing up.

At first, Chunli felt a little ashamed, after all, some of her private parts had been seen. But when she saw that Yuan Chen was completely calm, as if he hadn't seen anything, Chunli breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it was a bit rushed, it was still possible to calm down for a few minutes.

The two then went on patrol together.

While using Tong Ang's connections to infiltrate Hong Kong and thus mislead the Shadow Lo mole who had already infiltrated Hong Kong headquarters, they also took the opportunity to gather information about Xia Du'er, Shadow Lo, and Wei Jia.

Thanks to the qi-cultivating skills of Qigong, Chunli didn't show too much concern because of her previous relaxation—or rather, as Yuan Chen's sparring partner during this period, Chunli had more or less gotten used to some things.

Feeling much more relaxed, Chunli chatted with Yuanchen about her cultivation experiences while leading him on a tour of the streets.

Just as the two were still discussing, Chun-Li's communicator started beeping.

"Chun-Li, head to Hibiki Dojo in Kowloon Street." Tong Ang's voice came through the communicator: "Sagat is there. Hold him off as long as possible. I'll get there as soon as possible!"

Hearing her father's words, Chunli's eyes flashed with seriousness. After briefly recalling the contents of the walkie-talkie, Yuan Chen quickly replied:

"It's 500 meters from here as the crow flies, just two intersections away. Run there."

"Okay!" Chunli nodded quickly upon hearing this, her expression serious.

Although Yuan Chen had spent most of the past three years practicing in restaurants with Yuan Xiu, he was still quite familiar with Hong Kong.

Especially because of Yuan Chen's extraordinary mental strength and vitality, he also has a pretty good memory.

As he is now, although he rarely goes to other areas, he has memorized the map well in advance.

On his way there, Yuan Chen quickly tried to recall what Hibiki Martial Arts School was.

hibiki... hibiki?

For those familiar with Japan, the first thing that comes to mind might be a type of whisky.

But Yuan Chen is different; he lives in this fighting game, a combination of Sagat and Hibiki...

Xiangwu Martial Arts School?

Upon remembering the name, Yuan Chen also recalled the Street Fighter storyline involving the Hibiki Dojo, so he quickly said as he ran with Chun-Li towards the target location:

"If I remember correctly, the owner of Hibiki Dojo is a Japanese martial artist named Takeshi Hibiki! He ate at the restaurant and mentioned that he planned to start his martial arts career here."

"From outside? Then it seems like they're quite capable."

Upon hearing this, Chun-Li also looked surprised.

Traditionally, martial artists from other places who want to open a martial arts school need to pass some tests by the locals, or demonstrate their strength to gain recognition.

Therefore, those who can open a martial arts school as outsiders often have genuine skills, which is vastly different from the petty thugs on the streets and the old men and women fighting and stealing vegetables over discounts.

"Yes, it certainly has a remarkable aura."

Yuan Chen nodded, then continued:

"Five hundred meters as the crow flies...that's Kowloon Avenue...it's the territory of the Xia Du'er gang! And it's related to Ying Luo!"

While Yuan Chen and Chun Li were heading to the Xiangwu Martial Arts School, Sagat's eyes were filled with irritation and indifference in front of the school.
