Chapter 1584: China Martial Unification Organization!
"You brat, I should be the one asking you that question!"
Chen Longxiang, even more out of patience, glared at Jiang Feng and said, "Speaking of you, my impression is that you’re like Sun the Monkey who jumped out of a crack in the stone, your skills are simply miraculous, breaking conventions, even I have to constantly reassess you! But of course, you didn’t really emerge from a crack; you must have your background and lineage. So tell me the truth now! I guarantee I won’t leak it out, nor will I stand against you!"
"Old man!"
Jiang Feng tapped his fingers on the table, "Do you know what it means to answer a question when asked? I asked you first, what’s with all your chattering? Spill it! Stop rambling!"
"You..."
Chen Longxiang’s beard bristled with anger, but he had to suppress his temper, "gnashing his teeth" as he said, "Alright then, I’ll formally introduce myself, I’m with the National Martial Unification Bureau."
"Martial Unification Bureau?" Jiang Feng frowned; what kind of ghost department is that, even when he was the young master of the Jiang Family in the Capital City, he’d never heard of it!
"Unheard of, right? It makes sense if you haven’t heard of it!"
A rarely seen smug smile appeared on Chen Longxiang’s old face, "For the sake of discretion, let’s call it the Martial Unification Organization. The Martial Unification Organization is the official department of China that manages and recruits martial artists, under the National Security Department! Internally, the martial artists are of course all with official status. Previously, you only knew there were many rogue martial artists in Jiangdong, and you’ve seen quite a few, but you probably haven’t seen any official martial artists, right? I’m one of them! Moreover, I’m the deputy director of the Jiangdong branch of the National Martial Unification Bureau, you could also say the deputy team leader."
Now Jiang Feng finally understood why Chen Longxiang knew so many secrets that were elusive to ordinary people and had even wider sources of information; he actually had an official status!
"When I speak to you in such an official tone, you probably don’t understand, so let me make it more digestible: you’ve surely heard of the Chinese Dragon Team, haven’t you?" Chen Longxiang smiled again at Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng immediately understood, so the Chinese Dragon Team is this Martial Unification Organization!
"Heard of it, go on." Jiang Feng said calmly.
Looking at Jiang Feng’s unflustered demeanor, Chen Longxiang secretly admired his courage.
No wonder he’s a person who can defy the heavens at such a young age; in reality, hearing the name of the Dragon Group, yet still remains calm and composed, like still water.
"I’ve introduced my identity, weren’t you curious why I always receive the news from the Netherworld Hall so promptly? That’s because the Dragon Group’s network is beyond your imagination, for adversarial organizations of the ranking like the Netherworld Hall and the Eighteen Hells, we naturally have our own undercover monitoring them; as for more, I shouldn’t disclose. We are on par with the Secret Service of Eagle Country and the CIA of America!" At this, Chen Longxiang’s face was full of pride!
Jiang Feng found it amusing, "I have heard the great name of the Dragon Group like thunder, but since you know the location of the Netherworld Hall and that it’s filled with heinous criminals, why don’t you launch an operation to wipe them out? Why do you let them repeatedly enter China to stir trouble, causing problems for me?"
"What do you know, kid!"
Chen Longxiang rolled his eyes, "The primary goal of the Dragon Group is to protect home and country, not to strike first! Besides, although the Dragon Group is strong and filled with experts, the Netherworld Hall is no push-over either; if a conflict arises, it could very likely end in mutual destruction. If too many Dragon Group members die, where can we find so many experts to replace them, wouldn’t it be a big loss?"
"Of course, it’s not that the Dragon Group can’t wipe out the Netherworld Hall, in fact, it’s quite the opposite, as long as the Dragon Group leaders at the head level take action, it would be almost effortless!"
"But those people are vital to the state, once they make a move, it would give adversary countries a handle to criticize us internationally, leading to immense international public opinion, as we have always claimed to be a nation that doesn’t resort to force but convinces by reason..."
"Moreover, even if the Dragon Group obliterates the Netherworld Hall, there’s still the Eighteen Hells above them! The Eighteen Hells is a formidable organization comprising more than one country, and although not a match for China in a direct clash, their multitude and spread are problems. If they infiltrate just a few to cause destruction domestically, we can’t bear the consequences, which is why China won’t act against the Netherworld Hall unless absolutely necessary!"
Jiang Feng nodded, he could understand these things.
It’s just like a villa, knowing that there’s a wasp nest hanging from one of the corner walls, they wouldn’t rashly mess with it.
Wasp stings aren’t lethal, but if stung, it does hurt a lot, better to avoid getting bothered by those insects and maintain peace.
"Alright, now I know your identity, but as for my identity, I can say nothing, there’s no need for you to inquire."
Jiang Feng leisurely took a sip of tea and said.
Chen Longxiang nearly spat out his tea!
He didn’t expect Jiang Feng to be so shameless, after he finished talking, Jiang Feng was unwilling to reveal anything!
"Boy, you’re not being fair!" Chen Longxiang flared his nostrils and glared.
Jiang Feng shook his head, smiling, "It’s not that I’m unfair, but even if I tell you about myself, you won’t believe it or understand. Just know that I’m unlike any martial artist you know, I’m an outsider!"
"Of course, I know you’re an outsider, ordinary people wouldn’t make me this angry!" Chen Longxiang fumed!
"One more question," Jiang Feng chuckled, "since you’re the deputy leader of the Dragon Group’s Jiangdong branch, how come you’re also a Tributor to the Baili Family?"
"That’s because Baili Xi once saved my life."
Chen Longxiang snorted, "Moreover, he and I get along very well, almost like sworn brothers, so protecting the Baili Family is only natural. The Dragon Group enjoys many privileges, and such scenarios are common, not just me, we have more freedom than you imagine. Even in our free time, we can pursue our favorite professions or do what we like, as long as we’re ready to respond when needed."
Jiang Feng had a playful expression, with that logic, it seems very fitting for Jing Wuming, who excels at playing dead when there’s nothing to do, but rushes first when there’s trouble!
"Kid, telling you so much also had another intention."
Chen Longxiang suddenly took a sip of tea, earnestly staring at Jiang Feng, "I’ve introduced the benefits of the Dragon Group to you, and after my observation, you’ve passed numerous tests. Now I ask you, are you willing to join the Chinese Dragon Group? I’m formally inviting you as the Jiangdong Deputy Leader!"
