Tranxending Vision - Chapter 656

Chapter 656: 656

At the end of the road was a village and he saw it half an hour later . This place was no longer in the territory of Bailu Town . It was very remote and Xia Lei had never been here before .

A lean dog was barking fiercely at Xia Lei’s Chevrolet Suburban car . However, the dog quickly ran away when Xia Lei pressed the horn . In front of him, Yelena rode the electric moped on an even smaller road on a hillside . Xia Lei could no longer drive the car up the road at this point . He got out of his car and started to climb up the hill .

Yelena still didn’t stop, and she soon disappeared on a small, shady road . Xia Lei had climbed about a few hundred meters upwards when he saw a farmhouse dwelling . There were several green-tiled buildings, a courtyard wall, and a bamboo forest in the back of the house . There was also a denser forest further back from the house .

The door of the farmhouse was locked tightly and the paint on the planks of the door had almost peeled off completely . Some of the planks had been painted black, some parts were white, and other parts were red . The colors didn’t look bright at all, which gave off the feeling that it had been eroded away by the wind and rain for several decades . Xia Lei walked over and pushed the door open without knocking because he already saw what was behind the door .

In the courtyard was Yelena, standing behind a middle-aged man . That man had a tanned face and large, calloused hands . This made him look like he was a genuine farmer, but Xia Lei knew that he wasn’t a farmer because he was his father, Xia Changhe . Just like Yelena, he was also wearing a silicone mask on his face .

Xia Lei can’t help smiling . He was worried that he couldn’t find his father, Xia Changhe, but his father would always appear every time he wanted to see him .

“Dad, have you been living here?” Xia Lei closed the courtyard door and walked towards his father .

Xia Changhe opened his arms and hugged Xia Lei . He patted Xia Lei’s back twice, hard . He said, “The FA Organisation and the CIA are chasing me down everywhere . Where would be the safest place for me? The answer is China . Since you came back from Germany last time, I already took a fancy to this place . The owner of the house moved to the city and he was going to abandon this place, but I rented it . This place is close to where you live, so if you ever get into any trouble, I can rush over and help you as soon as possible . ”

“I would’ve never thought that you would be right by my side . ” Xia Lei couldn’t help smiling .

Yelena said, “When there was nothing to do, I would go to Bailu Town to collect information on you . Both your father and I knew pretty much everything that happened at your place . Why did you think that I would appear today otherwise?”

“You guys already knew what happened?” Xia Lei was a little shocked .

Yelena suddenly put her finger in her mouth and whistled loudly .

Xia Lei suddenly realized something and turned to look at the direction of the courtyard door . The door disappeared in his left eye’s view and he saw a young man wearing a security uniform walking towards them with a package in his hand . What shocked him was that the package that he was holding was the one Xia Xue had given him . Xia Lei had not taken it with him when he climbed up the hill . Then, his gaze froze on the man's face . He was stunned .


The young man was one of the Thunder Horse military Factory’s security guards, and Lu Shen’s subordinate . Xia Lei remembered his name was E’er Demutu . He was a Mongolian . When the Thunder Horse Military Factory was hiring a group of security guards, he was recruited because he was a military verteran . He never expected that such a typical worker would appear in front of him in this fashion!

E’er Demutu pushed the door open and walked in . Upon seeing Xia Lei, he lowered his head and said shamefully, “Director Xia, I’m sorry… I work for your father . ”

Xia Lei smiled flatly . He wanted to say something but he couldn’t say it .

It was such a relief that he was helping his father . If he was helping the FA Organisation or the CIA, then it would be terrible .

E’er Demutu handed the package to Xia Changhe .

Xia Changhe opened the package and looked inside . He laughed grimly . “They finally used me to threaten you . It looks like both the FA Organisation and the CIA have exhausted their patience with you . ”

“This package was delivered by Gu Kewen . I suspect that she is a double agent . On the surface, she’s the Asia manager of the CIA, but she’s actually assisting Dark Mona from the FA Organisation . Back then, Long Bing killed Gu Kewen in Japan and Dark Mona took her corpse . But since Gu Kewen’s alive, then the only person who could’ve saved her was Dark Mona,” Xia Lei said .

Xia Changhe glanced at E’er Demutu and said, “You can leave . Go keep watch outside . ”

E’er Demutu nodded and left the farmhouse courtyard .

“Dad, can he be trusted?”

“If he’s not to be trusted, he would’ve been dead a long time ago . I’ve known him from ten years ago . He was only nine at that time . His mother suffered from an illness and his father broke his leg on the worksite . I gave him the money to seek treatment for his mother and also funded his education . I used to go to Mongolia every winter to personally train him,” said Xia Changhe .

Xia Lei couldn’t help glancing at Yelena . Yelena was like the Russian version of E’er Demutu . It seemed like his father was skilled at using this method to grow his power .



“Dad, how many more of these kinds of people do you still have?” asked Xia Lei . He was curious about this .

“Twelve . I don’t need dozens or hundreds of people in my team . I only need an elite team that can complete any mission . They are located all over the world and are ready to come and go under my command at any time . These people have been personally trained and selected by me, but each of them has their own speciality . The one that just left, his code name is Tiger,” said Xia Changhe .

Xia Lei suddenly felt like his father was an old shark, with many hidden layers to him .

Xia Changhe moved aside and pointed to Yelena . “Her code name is Rooster . ”

“Rooster?” Xia Lei didn’t expect Yelena’s code name to be a rooster under his father’s commands .

“Rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig . ” Xia Changhe said, “They are code-named after the twelve Chinese zodiac animals . The one who was killed by Liang Siyao was Pig . ”

Xia Lei had not forgotten about that woman . Her name was Yevgeniya . In Haizhu, Liang Siyao had killed her using a sniper rifle . At that time, she was just about to reveal Liang Siyao’s real identity to him .

“Yevgeniya is dead . ” After a pause, Xia Lei asked, “Is there anyone replacing her?”

“Of course . ”

“Who?”

Xia Changhe laughed . “I will keep her identity a secret for now, but I will let you know when it’s time for you to know . Remember, the zodiac battle team is the only decent gift that I can give you . Now, I will give you this team . From now on, they will only listen to your orders . ”

Xia Lei was stunned .



He knew very well that the reason why his father was able to survive under the intense pursuit of the CIA and the FA Organisation was due to this team . Xia Changhe was able to control the news from all over the world thanks to his team . This team was like his talisman against danger, yet now he was giving it to him .

His father’s love was as great as a mountain . Xia Lei’s eyes became moist . “Father, what are you going to do after you give me the team that you had spent so much effort to build?”

Xia Changhe sighed . “You came to look for me in such a rush, so how could I not know what you’re thinking? You have done so much to build up merits with the Chinese government, isn’t all so that I can live peacefully to an old age? Isn’t it all so that I can take a nice stroll in the park with my grandson? I’m getting old and it’s time for me to retire . But for you, your life is just starting . I hope this zodiac team can be a great help to you . ”

He couldn’t hide anything from his father . After all, an old shark was an old shark .

“Dad, does that mean that you agreed?”

“If I refuse, won’t all your efforts be in vain? Xia Xue probably almost forgot about me . If I don’t go home soon, she will probably no longer recognise me . Isn’t she getting married soon with that guy named Liu Zhengnan? I don’t want to miss her wedding . ” Xia Changhe’s eyes were filled with tranquility, and expectation .

No father would want to miss his daughter’s wedding, even if it was a shark-like father like Xia Changhe .

Xia Lei couldn’t help his excited smile . “That’s great . I can ask the higher-ups . Since I have contributed so much, there’s no way that they won’t agree to my request . ”

“Then how are you going to tell those people about your father’s identity?” said Yelena worriedly .

Xia Lei laughed . “That is not important . What’s important is the fact that he is my father . If they don’t accept my request, I will make them regret it . ”

“I’m not worried about that . I’m worried about the FA Organisation . Based on the FA Organisation’s way of doing things, I believe that it’s not as simple as sending you a package and threatening you,” said Xia Changhe .

“If they attack, I will fight back . I will make them regret what they did . This time, I must kill Gu Kewen no matter what,” said Xia Lei .

“You don’t have any decent guards by your side . You should bring Yelena with you . Her gun skills are very good . She is very good at eliminating potentially dangerous targets . Do you know why her code name is Rooster? Roosters can eat all the insects hiding in the grass,” said Xia Changhe .



Xia Lei looked at Yelena . “Are you willing to follow me?”

Yelena’s lips curved in a smile . “Only because of your father . I can do anything for you . ”

Xia Lei smiled . “Well, I need a secretary by my side . So, I guess you’re it then . ”

He was going to make the human resources department help him hire a secretary, but now that he had Yelena, he didn’t need to hire an outsider secretary .

“You’ve already met two members of the Zodiac team . There are still ten more members left . After my problem’s solved, I will gather them together to meet you . I will announce this news with all of them present,” said Xia Changhe .

“Will the person with the code name Pig come?” Xia Lei asked .

Xia Changhe patted Xia Lei’s shoulder . He smiled and said, “You can rest assured, you will know who she is when that day comes . ”

Xia Lei couldn’t help trying to guess the identity of Pig, but he still couldn’t guess who it was .

“Yelena, follow Xia Lei back . From now on, you will be one of his people . Now that you’re his secretary, you don’t have to hide anymore . You can take the mask off,” said Xia Changhe .

Yelena said nothing; she only nodded . She took off the mask, revealing her original appearance underneath . She had blond hair and a pair of beautiful blue eyes, and was tall with long legs . Yelena looked very sexy, but she also gave off a dangerous aura .

Xia Lei also understood that the only reason such a dangerous figure like Yelena was willing to follow him was because of his father . Although his father had already “retired”, these people still listened to his orders . Therefore, as long as his father was still alive, then the Zodiac team would be united around him and follow his orders .

Now that he was facing threats from both the CIA and the FA Organisation, Xia Lei felt like his fist had finally toughened .
