Just then, Guo Xuyang’s phone rang again, and he quickly answered it.
“Yangzi, we just received intel that unidentified personnel are attempting to approach you.”
Jiang Qixin’s voice came from the phone.
“Do you know who it is?”
“We don’t know the specifics of the people. Several groups have entered our country disguised from different cities recently, presumably heading for you.”
“How can you be sure they’re coming for me?” Guo Xuyang asked.
“These people’s destination is the provincial capital. Based on the entry information and some of the individuals’ identities that have been intercepted, it’s still related to the spaceship incident.”
“Alright then. Does Brother Liang know about the situation?”
“I’ve already informed Liangzi. He’s currently arranging for people to guard your villa.”
“I understand. We’ll keep each other informed of any developments.”
“Liangzi might be looking for you soon. Be very careful.”
“Okay, President Jiang.” Guo Xuyang hung up the phone.
“What’s going on?” Li Minxi asked.
“Nothing much. I might have to go out for a few days. You should rest well at home. If anything comes up, consult with Mom more. You were very right earlier. Mom is truly good to you all. I’ll have to be mindful of my words when I get back. I’ll arrange for Liu He to prepare more lamb for you. If it’s not enough, I’ll replenish it promptly.”
“President Jiang called you at this time. Was it something important?”
“I need to go out for a few days. I have a mission.” Guo Xuyang lied, not wanting Xiao Xi and the others to worry about him.
“Then you must be careful,” Li Minxi said.
“I will,” Guo Xuyang replied as he opened the door and left.
“Brother Liang, where are you?” Guo Xuyang called Lu Liang.
“I was just about to call you. The boss just called and said that unidentified people have arrived in the provincial capital through several channels and we need to be alert. I’ve already dispatched personnel. I’ve also notified Xiao Qi.” Lu Liang said.
“President Jiang called me too. Do you know the specifics?”
“Not clear. What we know is that four waves of people have arrived, and the exact numbers are still unclear.”
“Is there anything you need me to do?”
“I suggest you leave home now. It’s best to lure those people to a specific location and then capture them. If you stay at home, I’m afraid there might be collateral damage,” Lu Liang said.
“Do you have a suitable place? Recommend one.”
“We have a safe house in the suburbs. Drive to the safe house now, and try to circle around a few times to let these people discover your whereabouts. This way, the people at home will be relatively safer. I’ll send you the location.”
“I’ll do as you say. Did President Jiang mention the Li Minyu matter to you?”
“He did. Once we capture these people, I’ll take you out. We can’t just defend passively; we need to take the initiative.”
“Feint to the East and attack in the West, so that the opponent can’t fathom our true intentions?”
“Exactly. They want to dig you out, don’t they? Let’s surprise them.”
“The security of these two villas is entrusted to your people. Especially the personal safety of my parents, it must be well protected.”
“Don’t worry about that. You’ll see the situation around you as you head out.” Lu Liang hung up.
Guo Xuyang sensed slightly and understood why Lu Liang said that. There were already dozens of people, both overt and covert, waiting around the villa. The same was true for the King’s Villa. However, no additional guards were assigned to Xiao Hong by the hospital, only Liu Zi and a short man were stationed at the ward door.
Guo Xuyang drove out, deliberately honked his horn lightly at the gate, and then drove forward. Two cars immediately followed. This was likely arranged by Lu Liang in advance to facilitate Guo Xuyang’s protection. Guo Xuyang led the two cars around several blocks in the provincial capital’s main roads, then headed towards the location Lu Liang had sent him.
The enemy’s intelligence was also quite good. They were originally heading towards the artificial lake villas. Upon receiving the news, they also pursued Guo Xuyang. When they were still five to six kilometers away from the safe house, the two cars protecting Guo Xuyang were hit by rocket-propelled grenades. However, as the rockets approached, Guo Xuyang had already brought the people protecting him into his mind. The rockets only blew the cars away. However, the enemy was quite arrogant, daring to use rocket-propelled grenades within the country. Enemies were to be dealt with ruthlessly. As the car was blown away, the person who used the rocket also disappeared. He was directly absorbed into Guo Xuyang’s mind.
Guo Xuyang extended his senses fully and discovered that his trajectory had long been mastered by the enemy. There was a remote sensing aircraft at an altitude of eighty thousand meters, constantly following him. No wonder the enemy could so accurately locate his position. But he wasn’t afraid; this was better, as he wouldn’t have to worry about his family’s safety. He discovered there were twelve people in total. Excluding the three he had absorbed into his mind earlier, there were nine more who were pursuing and intercepting him.
“Yangzi, how far is it to the location I gave you? Just now I heard the report saying there was a rocket attack on your end?”
“It’s alright. Those who were protecting me, I saved them. The cars were destroyed by the enemy.”
“As long as you’re safe. How much further?”
“Less than three kilometers. What’s the origin of these people? Have you found out?”
“No. They should be a group of expendables. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have brought rocket-propelled grenades.”
“The enemy is planning to destroy me,” Guo Xuyang commented.
“It seems so. If they can’t have you, they want to destroy you. These people are never benevolent.”
“In that case, I won’t be polite either. Do you still need any live targets?”
“You found them?”
“There are a total of twelve people tracking me this time. I’ve already killed three, and there are nine left. As for the others, I haven’t found them.”
“Leave two alive and bring them directly to the safe house. The rest can be eliminated.”
“Okay. Where are you now?”
“I’m almost at the safe house. We should arrive around the same time.”
“We’ll talk when we meet,” Guo Xuyang said and hung up the phone.
The remote sensing aircraft in the sky was a good piece of equipment. Guo Xuyang sensed it and, when he was about one kilometer away from the safe house, directly absorbed the aircraft into his mind.
“Fuck, the target’s trajectory suddenly disappeared, and the signal is gone.” In a treehouse on a high mountain, a disheveled man cursed angrily.
“Frank, don’t be like that. Check again and see exactly what went wrong,” a voice came from a nearby monitor.
“The aircraft lost control, and the target’s signal is also gone,” the man called Frank said loudly.
