Chapter 2534 Long Zhen Guo

Duan Ling Tian had long ascertained Long Zhen Guo’s location with his Divine Consciousness. However, he did not appear before Long Zhen Guo immediately since Long Zhen Guo had hidden himself in the isolated military base. If he had directly appeared before Long Zhen Guo, there was no doubt chaos would descend on the military base. Therefore, he decided against showing himself to Long Zhen Guo in such an abrupt manner.

Duan Ling Tian’s voice that had been imbued with his energy resounded in the military base. Everyone in the base could hear him. Even Long Zhen Guo had heard his voice. “I’m here to look for Long Zhen Guo, Instructor Long!”

Long Zhen Guo was an imposing man with a large and muscular physique. He had wide and angular shoulders and a thick neck. When he heard Duan Ling Tian’s voice, he was in a meeting with ten of his most trusted subordinates in a large room.

If Long Zhen Guo was the soul of the Soul of Yan Huang, then, these ten subordinates were the body of the organizations. They were irreplaceable members of the organizations.

A grave expression appeared on Long Zhen Guo’s face when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s voice. He knew the owner of the voice had to be powerful. Otherwise, his Voice Transmission would not be so powerful. “Instructor Long?” It had been a long time since anyone had addressed him as Instructor Long. After all, it had been a while since he had been an instructor in the army.

The ten subordinates’ expressions changed as well as they instinctively turned to look at Long Zhen Guo when they heard Duan Ling Tian’s voice.

Soon after, a communication device resembling a wristwatch on someone’s arm blinked. A few seconds later, as though he had received some news, the owner looked at Long Zhen Guo and said, “Director, according to the Surveillance Division, whoever’s looking for you is at the entrance of our base at this moment.”

“At the entrance of our base?!” The remaining nine subordinates were in shock.

Even Long Zhen Guo’s eyes widened imperceptibly as a surprised expression flitted across his face. He raised his hand and pressed a button on a panel on the conference desk.

A holographic image appeared in the middle of the table, showing a purple-clad young man hovering in the air at the entrance of the base. The purple-clad young man seemed to be hovering in the air without the help of any flying equipment.

The man who had spoken up first said, “The control center has run a scan on him. They did not find any electronics on him. He doesn’t even have a communicator.”

Everyone gasped at this information, including Long Zhen Guo.

A young man sitting at the conference table turned to look at his female colleague who was dressed in a green business suit and said, “If I’m not mistaken, even our elites who are skilled in manipulating wind aren’t capable of a feat like this, right?”

“Without the aid of flying equipment, I won’t be able to stay in the air for more than half a minute.” The young woman who had spoken was one of the top Wind super soldiers in the Soul of Yan Huang. Even among all the elites in the world, she would still rank at the top. This meant her words represented more than ninety percent of Wind super soldiers.

Another subordinate chimed in, “He’s quite strange, isn’t he, dressed in such ancient clothing? Is it possible he’s from one of the families in Hua who live like hermits? Based on my knowledge, there are several families who live off the grid in the deepest part of the forest and mountains. They have no contact with the outside world at all. It’s not unheard of for them to dress in ancient clothing. After all, they live as though they’re still in the ancient times.”

Long Zhen Guo pressed another button on the desk in front of him and said, “I’m Long Zhen Guo. May I ask for your identity?”

Long Zhen Guo’s voice was transmitted to the entrance of the military base through the speakers.

Upon hearing Long Zhen Guo’s voice, a wave of nostalgia rose in Duan Ling Tian’s heart. His eyes had brightened as well. “Instructor Long!” He tried his best to suppress his emotions and said through a Voice Transmission that only Long Zhen Guo could hear, “Instructor Long! It’s me! Ling Tian, Bloodwolf!”

Duan Ling Tian did not hesitate to reveal his identity in his past life. If he had just mentioned his codename, Bloodwolf, Long Zhen Guo might not remember him. However, there was no doubt Long Zhen Guo would remember his name.

When Long Zhen Guo heard Duan Ling Tian’s words, he felt as though he had been struck by a bolt of lightning. Ling Tian? When was the last time he had heard this name? Ling Tian was the best of the best among the soldiers he had trained. If Ling Tian did not retire, there was no doubt Ling Tian’s achievements would not be inferior to his! Although Ling Tian retired from the army and became a mercenary, Ling Tian had never forgotten his homeland. Ling Tian had always prioritized the safety of his homeland. It was a trait that Long Zhen Guo admired. However, several decades ago, Ling Tian suddenly vanished without a trace. Long Zhen Guo did not receive any news about Ling Tian since then even though he had sent men out to search for Ling Tian.

“Only a few decades have passed, why does he look so different?” Long Zhen Guo studied the holographic image of the purple-clad young man. The purple-clad young man looked nothing like the Ling Tian, or Bloodwolf, from his memory. Despite being skeptical, he still wanted to meet this young man who claimed to be Bloodwolf Ling Tian. He quickly said, “That’s all for today. Meeting adjourned. I’ll be out for a while.”

“Are you planning to meet this man, Director?”

“He’s a little strange, Director. Please let me accompany you!”

“She’s right, Director. We don’t know his identity or where he came from. Meeting him without any preparation is too reckless.”

The ten subordinates around the conference began to voice their concerns.

“Didn’t you hear him say he’s Bloodwolf Ling Tian?” Long Zhen Guo asked with a frown on his face. Naturally, he was unaware that he was the only recipient of Duan Ling Tian’s Voice Transmission.

“Bloodwolf Ling Tian?!” Long Zhen Guo’s words stunned everyone in the room. As Long Zhen Guo’s most trusted subordinates, they had, naturally, heard about Long Zhen Guo’s time when he was training elite soldiers in the army. Among these elites, the cream of the crop was Bloodwolf Ling Tian.

“He’s Bloodwolf Ling Tian?” The young lady dressed in a green business suit exclaimed. Her eyes were shining with admiration.

Before his disappearance, Bloodwolf Ling Tian was a household name around the globe. He was undisputedly the very best. She was just a young girl back then, but it did not stop her from idolizing Ling Tian.

…

Duan Ling Tian had no idea that Long Zhen Guo would not be the only one who would come to meet him.

Clang!

As the large door opened, Long Zhen Guo stepped out from the base, looking as formidable as ever. Ten people followed behind him.

Duan Ling Tian quickly scanned their faces, he discovered he had sensed these people earlier with his Divine Consciousness. They were earth’s mightiest super soldiers. Their souls were as strong as an Eminent Celestial’s soul. However, due to their souls being strengthened by genetic medicine, they could only manipulate the elements.

Long Zhen Guo strode toward the purple-clad young man hovering in the air and asked solemnly, “You’re… Bloodwolf?”

“Instructor Long!” Duan Ling Tian cried out. After all these years, Long Zhen Guo looked exactly like how he had remembered him. The sense of familiarity brought a smile to his face.

With just a slight movement, Duan Ling Tian landed gently in front of Long Zhen Guo. Then, he stood with his back straight as he saluted Long Zhen Guo with the standard soldier’s salutation.

Although Long Zhen Guo was not certain if the purple-clad young man before him was Bloodwolf Ling Tian, he still returned the salutation. He asked in a low, no-nonsense voice, “You don’t look like that punk, Bloodwolf Ling Tian. How can you prove your claims?”

Duan Ling Tian looked at Long Zhen Guo, his eyes twinkling with mischief. “Do you really want me to prove my identity, Instructor Long?”

“Get on with it!” Long Zhen Guo snapped.

Duan Ling Tian said casually, “Instructor Long, I remember the first time I visited your house, you were being punished by your wife. She made you kneel on durian shells for fifteen minutes. Originally, she intended to punish you for half an hour. However, she let you off the hook due to my visit — ”

“Alright, alright! That’s enough!” Long Zhen Guo hurriedly interjected before Duan Ling Tian could finish his words. “I can’t believe it’s you…” He could feel the burning gazes from his ten subordinates who were standing behind him. He felt his face flushed and quickly changed the subject. “There’s no news about you for the past decades, kid. I sent many men out to search for you but to no avail. Where have you been all this time? Moreover, what happened to your face? You look nothing like how you used to look. I don’t remember you having such a delicate face that looks like it’ll crumble with just a sneeze…”
