Chapter 291: Chen Zhengdao

While everyone was chatting, Qin Kai changed into a new set of equipment and appeared in front of everyone.

He rode the magic glide wings, wore the green magic armor, with only the helmet off, making it recognizable as Qin Kai, not someone else.

Long Hanjie looked at Qin Kai in shock and asked, “Old Qin, how did you become like this? What is this thing? Green magic equipment?”

Qin Kai smiled and replied, “Exactly.”

Long Hanjie exclaimed, “Where did you get this thing from… Wait, is it from Ye Xuan?”

Qin Kai continued, “Yes, Ye Xuan gave me this set of green magic outfit, giving me enough combat power to participate in this mission.”

As Qin Kai spoke, he manipulated the magic glide wings, swiftly maneuvering in the sky, impressing Long Hanjie.

Only now did Long Hanjie understand why their relationship suddenly improved, realizing that Ye Xuan had invested heavily in this.

This green magic suit could give an ordinary person the strength equivalent to an A-class Awakener.

Qin Kai, who was previously powerless, could now fight alongside Long Hanjie and others because of the green magic suit gifted by Ye Xuan. If Qin Kai were a girl, he might have had to offer himself in gratitude.

Understanding this, Long Hanjie felt it was understandable.

Later, Ye Xuan said, “Hanjie, saving people is like saving a fire. This time, we rely on you for efficiency.”

Long Hanjie’s strength had greatly improved compared to before, and he now had the ability to transform. Heading to the mining area to rescue people, Long Hanjie was the most suitable mount for this mission.

Ye Xuan’s Sky Dominator Body had now advanced to the Heavenly Saint Body, losing the ability to transform. Although he could fly through electromagnetic manipulation, it was not as convenient as Long Hanjie’s form.

Long Hanjie immediately said, “No problem, let’s set off!”

Then, with a dragon chant, Long Hanjie transformed into his true dragon form before changing into the form of a giant bird.

While the true dragon form was powerful and majestic, it was not comfortable to ride on and not very fast. Therefore, the giant bird form was more suitable for carrying people and long-distance flights.

After transforming into the giant bird form, Long Hanjie’s companions landed directly on his back.

With everything prepared, the giant bird let out a cry, soared into the sky, quickly turning into a black dot and disappearing.

On the other side, Chu Han arrived with Fang Junfeng at a quadrangle courtyard.

In the pavilion of the quadrangle courtyard, two old men were playing chess. One of them was Su Mengli’s master from the previous life, now known as the number one person in China, Chen Zhengdao.

Facing him was a Go master with exceptional skills.

Chen Zhengdao was not very skilled at Go, but surprisingly, he had the upper hand in the game.

Whenever Chen Zhengdao was about to lose, he would use his ability to turn the situation around with a single sentence, changing the disadvantage into an advantage.

Relying on this cheating method, Chen Zhengdao played evenly with the Go master.

Changing the outcome of a Go game had almost no impact on Chen Zhengdao, not even consuming much of his lifespan or spiritual power.

The reason the Go master enjoyed playing with Chen Zhengdao was that it helped hone his skills. So, they would play a few games together from time to time.

After Chu Han arrived, he said, “Chen, still playing Go?”

Chen Zhengdao smiled and asked, “Yes, do you need something from me?”

Despite the crisis in China, Chen Zhengdao seemed unusually relaxed. His abilities were overdrawn, and he didn’t have many years left.

Therefore, the official decision was not to trouble Chen Zhengdao unless it involved the life or death of China, allowing him some leisure time recently.

Chu Han explained, “Chen, you continue playing Go first. We’ll talk after you finish.”

Chen Zhengdao, thinking there was something important, hastened his moves without resorting to cheating.

After finishing the game, Chen Zhengdao asked Chu Han, “Alright, what’s the matter?”

Chu Han pointed to Fang Junfeng and introduced him, saying, “Chen, let me introduce you. He is Feng Junfeng, and his ability is very special.”

Chen Zhengdao looked at Fang Junfeng and asked, “Is his ability related to his eyes? What’s the situation? Is there a problem with his eyes?”

Chu Han explained, “Chen, his ability is indeed unique. He can bring someone back to life at the cost of losing one eye.

Chen, everyone is aware of your physical condition. Over the years, you have depleted too much life force. If you could live another life, the pressure on China would be greatly reduced.”

Chen Zhengdao looked at Fang Junfeng and said, “Is that the ability? Well, let’s forget about it. I have lived for decades, it’s enough. It’s not worth it for a junior to lose an eye to save me.”

Chu Han immediately said, “Chen, you are the strongest in China, and your deterrence against the beasts is immense. What’s not worth it? Fang Junfeng, isn’t that right?”

Fang Junfeng had been obedient under Chu Han’s influence during this period.

He wholeheartedly agreed with Chu Han, “Leader Chu is right. Chen, you are the pillar of China. If you could live another life, you could save countless people of China.

If I could save you, it would be my honor. As for me, you don’t need to worry. Without a country, where is a home? Without a home, where am I?

If China falls, I have no future. On the contrary, if I save you, even if I go blind, with the merits I earn, I will have someone to take care of me in the future. You don’t have to worry; I am absolutely willing.”

Regardless of whether Fang Junfeng was willing before, under Chu Han’s various means, he was now genuinely willing.

Chen Zhengdao looked at Fang Junfeng and said, “Young people with such enlightenment are rare nowadays. Alright, go ahead and try your ability.”

With his lifespan running out, Chen Zhengdao had rarely intervened in recent years. Feeling overwhelmed, he knew his time was limited.

In the following years, Chen Zhengdao was forced to act under the threat of the Yin Emperor and eventually met his demise at the hands of him.
