The blind boxer with spinal injuries was almost half-disabled, letting out a trapped beast's roar, yet it was no longer much of a threat.

Leng Feng's expression was grim; after all, the boxer was his right-hand man. The military knife had broken his right arm, and now the boxer was blind, which meant the two strongest men under his command were completely ruined.

Leng Feng's mood couldn't possibly be good.

"Li Feng, don't think you've won. It's not over yet."

Li Feng looked at Leng Feng, who was still able to talk tough, then glanced at the incredibly calm Duan Qirui. He raised his hand and beckoned.

"Take them to the upstairs room."

"Please, both of you."

The bodyguard stepped forward and "invited" the two upstairs, and as for the still-rampaging boxer, he was quickly subdued and pinned to the ground.

"Find a place to confine him separately."

Li Feng took another look at this boxer. The exoskeleton on the boxer and the modifications within his body were not something easily achieved.

"Yes, Young Master."

A Dragon Guard nodded, then had the boxer tied up like a dumpling and transported away from Outer Heaven in a business car.

"Dismissed."

Li Feng turned to the neatly uniformed bodyguards in the hall and gave the order to dismiss.

"Feng, leaving Duan Qirui and Leng Feng here, Lin, the Heavenly Master, probably won't let this go easily. It's just hard to predict their next move,"

Wang Qian followed behind Li Feng, pondering.

Kidnapping Lin Wanzhou had already made the situation tense enough. Now, with Lin, the Heavenly Master's sent Duan Qirui and Leng Feng also failing in Huacheng, it's hard to say what Lin, the Heavenly Master, would do next.

Now the situation feels like gods clashing, and Wang Qian completely couldn't measure up to this level.

Li Feng chuckled lightly.

"What are we afraid of? 'Soldiers come, we'll block; water arrives, we'll cover.' This is Huacheng."

Wang Qian nodded upon hearing this.

Yes.

This is Huacheng. Here, even dragons must coil, and tigers must lie low because Huacheng has Hidden Dragon and even Lin, the Heavenly Master, must bow.

Li Feng returned straight to his room, while the security defenses of Outer Heaven were naturally handled by Dragon Guard bodyguards, who were truly master-level in this aspect.

Unless Lin, the Heavenly Master, managed to deploy the Guard or even used heavy weapons.

Otherwise, simply rallying those world masters to forcefully attack Outer Heaven was impossibly futile.

This was already the third night of Li Feng's predetermined timeframe.

"Young Master."

"What's the matter?"

Li Feng turned his head towards the hurriedly approaching Dragon Guard who directly replied, "An Xi has returned; she's already landed."

Li Feng furrowed his brow, "Is she healed? Why return without notifying anyone? What are the Dragon Guards on the Southern Federation side doing?"

"Young Master, you should know."

The Dragon Guard showed a helpless expression. An Xi held quite a high status within the Dragon Guards; she had always been by the Young Master's side and had now developed into his confidante.

Plus, as one of the few women in Dragon Guard, with beauty and exceptional intelligence, they had both admiration and a bit of awe for her.

Li Feng hummed; he knew An Xi's little temper well. Known within the Dragon Guards as a witch, An Xi could elicit no thoughts of resistance.

Especially since she's a woman; the Dragon Guards were indeed "afraid" of An Xi under the premise of not crossing the line.

Women remember grievances, after all.

"Where is she now?"

"She should be on her way."

Li Feng had initially intended to go upstairs, but upon hearing that An Xi was returning, he turned and waited for her in the lobby.

After smoking a few cigarettes, a Dragon Guard stepped forward and said, "Young Master, An Xi will be here soon."

Li Feng extinguished the cigarette butt, stood up, and walked out of Outer Heaven's door. Moments later, a car stopped in front of the hotel entrance.

The car door opened, and An Xi jumped straight out of the car, throwing herself into Li Feng's arms.

"Those bastards, I told them I meant to give you a surprise, but they still tipped you off."

Li Feng looked at An Xi hugging him.

"Are your injuries healed? You came rushing back."

"Yes, almost fully recovered. Being there all alone and unable to see you, I was about to go crazy if I stayed any longer."

"Besides, I heard you seem to have offended a formidable opponent on the Mainland. Of course, I have to come back to be your think tank."

"Alright, the wind is strong outside, let's go in. Have you eaten dinner?"

"Not yet."

"Tell the restaurant to send some food to the room."

Li Feng instructed, then escorted An Xi upstairs, ensuring everyone else left before looking at her.

"Take off your clothes."

An Xi blushed deeply, her eyes watery as she looked at Li Feng, "Do you have to be so eager? At least let me eat something... to have the strength...!"

Before An Xi finished, Li Feng flicked her forehead.

"What are you thinking? I want to see how well your wound has healed."

Previously, in the Southern Federation, An Xi was suddenly shot by assassins sent by the Diamond Family. Luckily, the bullet missed vital organs, but it was still troublesome.

Li Feng even had to leave An Xi in the Southern Federation to undergo surgery and recover, but unexpectedly, she returned in less than a month.

An Xi pouted but still complied with Li Feng's order and took off her outer garment.

"The wound has healed quite well, though the bullet wound will leave a scar. I'm already thinking about how to remove it."

An Xi herself was from a family renowned for ancient medicine, with quite extensive knowledge in medical research.

Li Feng glanced at An Xi's healing wound, "It's recovering nicely. Whether there's a scar or not doesn't matter; your full recovery is what matters most. How's the internal injury?"

"It will require some time to recuperate. The bullet pierced the lung, so I can't perform strenuous activities, or breathing will become difficult."

An Xi spoke, shyly glancing at Li Feng, "Young Master, I might not be able to accompany you for a while."

"Focus on recuperating. I'll prescribe you medicine later. First, put your clothes on."

Li Feng picked up An Xi's clothes and handed them to her.

An Xi slowly dressed, while Li Feng sat back on the sofa, slightly flustered by An Xi's deliberate teasing.

"An Xi, do you remember when we attacked that Erwin Research Institute in the Northern Federation?"

"Erwin Research Institute, you mean the Biological Pharmaceutical Company?"

An Xi was slightly surprised, turning her head towards Li Feng, "What about it? Wasn't that institute already blown to ruins?"

"Do you still remember what project they were developing?"

"Yes, of course. They were researching a kind of Cell Enhancement Potion, supposedly to create biochemical Super Soldiers. It was said they had already begun human trials, though it seemed unsuccessful and resulted in creating some grotesque monsters."

"Why suddenly mention this?"

"I suspect that this research institute may not be the only one,"

Li Feng said.

"Hmm?"
