Chapter 1938 - 1942: Secret Mission

"The Dragon Clan’s Empress has taken control... Hehe, is that Long Tianwu now completely in charge of the Dragon Clan?"

Thinking of the strongest woman in the Dragon Clan, Qin Tian was deep in thought.

"We must address her as Your Majesty now. She’s truly the leader behind the revival and strength of the Dragon Clan. I didn’t think so before, but now I’ve realized it. I am in awe of Her Majesty the Empress. Within the Dragon Clan, there’s no one more powerful or greater than her..."

At Leng Yu’s words, Qin Tian was instantly dumbfounded. When did Leng Yu become such a fan of Long Tianwu?

As he forced a bitter smile, Qin Tian was also surprised. It seemed that Long Tianwu was indeed formidable.

He remembered when Leng Yu was dissatisfied with Long Tianwu’s usurpation of power. It was only a few years ago, and now Leng Yu had completely changed her mind.

"What are your plans next?" Qin Tian asked.

"Of course, I’ll be joining my companions. What about you, Qin Tian?" Leng Yu looked at Qin Tian, "Can you still be considered one of us? After all, your identity is different now."

Qin Tian asked back, "Who knows that I’m one of you?"

"No one, I know you’re off doing big things. I haven’t told anyone," Leng Yu replied.

"Well..."

Qin Tian hesitated, realizing that another identity meant more danger, but also more opportunities.

"Why don’t you join us for this action? Decide after the mission?"

Seeing Qin Tian’s hesitation, Leng Yu persuaded him, "We have a top-secret operation coming up and we just need a top-tier expert. If you help, our chances of success will be much higher."

"Oh?"

Qin Tian was surprised, "Are you going to kill someone?"

"No, we’re going to..." At this point, Leng Yu once again confirmed Qin Tian’s gaze, determining he could be trusted, before revealing the mission, "We received definite news that in the depths of the Northern Snowfield, the Ice Clan unearthed a treasure rumored to be unopened by the Ice Clan, probably a statue of an ancient giant beast. The statue can’t be stored in a Storage Bag and is indestructible, so everyone believes it’s a treasure."

"We’ve confirmed multiple times that the Deputy Commander of the Dragon Clan in the Imperial City will lead two squads to intercept the others midway. Since it’s the Ice Clan soldiers with only a few personal guards of the Fourth Prince, if no one else intervenes, our chances of success are high."

"Of course, the personal guards of the Fourth Prince are all martial arts experts, and we’re also worried they might have some top-notch fighters among them."

Leng Yu said this while looking at Qin Tian, making her intentions clear.

"Qin Tian, why don’t you help us complete this mission first?" she said directly.

"Alright. When do we act?"

Qin Tian, who could exude Dragon Qi, always felt a deep connection with the Dragon Clan. Additionally, since this operation was against the Fourth Prince, he was willing to fan the flames.

"In five days, we’ll wait for our Deputy Commander’s orders regarding the travel arrangements."

"Alright, I’ll go with you. I’ll go back and prepare first. Wait for me at the temple, I’ll be back soon."

Qin Tian immediately left the temple, returned to Feili Xue’s residence, and left a simple note, "Out on business, wait for me," then quickly went to the temple to meet Leng Yu.

After spending the night, Leng Yu led Qin Tian to a secluded residential house in East City of the Imperial City. After exchanging a few secret codes, the two successfully entered the meeting place of the Dragon Clan’s undercover team where Leng Yu was.

In a living room of a civilian house, there were eight people in total, including Qin Tian, making nine.

Their captain was a young, very capable-looking man who appeared to be even younger than Qin Tian.

"Ice Bird, who is he?"

The captain glared at Qin Tian, "What were you thinking bringing an outsider here? Trying to get us in trouble, or him?"

"If he’s not one of us, this guy must die," said a bearded man next to the captain.

"He is one of us, his name is Bing He. We were partners before in East Capital City but got separated. My former superiors know this code name, you can send someone to East Capital for verification if you don’t believe." Leng Yu replied.

"Alright, until the verification is confirmed, he can’t participate in any of our operations and must stay in a designated room."

"Captain, that’s not acceptable, he’s really one of us..."

"No need to argue about this, I’m just following the rules."

"Fine, I comply."

Seeing Leng Yu wanting to argue further, Qin Tian immediately expressed his willingness to comply.

Anyway, they had a few days, which was enough time for them to verify.

The captain was Yang Qingyun, a noble of the Dragon Clan on Panlong Island, tasked with a team of undercover agents in the Imperial City due to his youthful talent and smart work.

They communicated using flying beasts, nearly twice as fast as people, so three days later, Yang Qingyun received confirmation from East Capital that there was indeed a person with the code name Bing He, who was Ice Bird’s partner.

"Alright, since he’s one of us, there’s nothing more to say. Let’s start the meeting."

After cautiously confirming the Dragon Clan aura on Qin Tian, Yang Qingyun let it slide and began the meeting.

"Tomorrow, we’ll join another team. Listen to the Deputy Commander and me for instructions and lay the ambush on their required path. Remember to ensure personal safety. As per the old rules, if caught, take your own life immediately."

The meeting was very brief, and the next day, the nine of them set off, heading directly north out of the Imperial City. After traveling over 50 kilometers, Qin Tian and the other eight joined another group of nine.

"Everyone’s here, I’ll keep the briefing short,"

The Deputy Commander was a middle-aged man two meters tall, looking extremely powerful.

"We plan to act at dusk tomorrow in the Snow Mountain Canyon. It’s over 3,200 kilometers from the Imperial City, and as long as we act quickly, no reinforcements from the Imperial City can reach us."

"This time, the Ice Clan has dispatched a hundred-strong escort team, but they’re nothing to worry about."

"The main concern is the Fourth Prince’s twelve-man elite squad amongst them, said to be the elite of the elite among his personal guards, and they are our main target."

"Now we’ll divide the work. I, together with Commander Chen Zhi, will take on the two leading guards of the Fourth Prince. These two are said to be very formidable."

"Commander Chen Zhi will assign two people, and Commander Yang Qingyun will assign two people to handle the Ice Clan personnel. Everyone else will concentrate on attacking the remaining ten guards of the Fourth Prince. Dispatch them quickly, support each other, and once completed, focus on taking and transferring the treasure as the final objective."
