<h4>Chapter 1439: Chapter 1440: Why Are You So Good to Me?</h4>


    "The environment here is harsh, so the training must be even stricter." Xiang Yu said with a frown: "The more you train in peacetime, the less blood you shed in war."


    Wu Jing understood Xiang Yu’s meaning and nodded: "Don’t worry, Brother Yu, I’ve always been strict with their training. For two years, I’ve never cked off."


    Xiang Yu knew he was telling the truth. Seeing the demeanor of his brothers, he realized this was a formidable group.


    Though there are only twenty-five of them, theirbat effectiveness might rival a hundred men.


    "You’ve just arrived, so rest for a day tomorrow. We might have a mission soon," Xiang Yu said.


    Wu Jing was also a bit excited to hear there was a mission right when he arrived, so he said: "Understood, Brother Yu, we’re on standby anytime."


    Xiang Yu patted Wu Jing on the shoulder and let him go.


    Around seven in the evening, Xiang Yu originally intended to find Cheng Wn, but she came looking for him first.


    The two of them went outside and chatted while walking. Now that they had both calmed down, it was the best time to talk.


    "It seems like you’re hiding something from me." Cheng Wn said first.


    Xiang Yu didn’t deny it and nodded: "These people are my brothers; one of them is a coach I brought in."


    Hearing it was a coach brought by Xiang Yu, Cheng Wn perked up and turned to Xiang Yu: "Is it that skinny kid who looks like a monkey?"


    Xiang Yu: "..."


    Seeing Xiang Yu’s awkward expression, Cheng Wn realized she had misspoken.


    "Is he capable?" Cheng Wn immediately asked with doubt.


    "Not under Ivan." Xiang Yu replied decisively.


    Cheng Wn nodded upon hearing this. Although she didn’t fully agree with Xiang Yu’s view, since he was so confident, it probably wasn’t far off.


    Moreover, with Ivan gone, she couldn’t find a better instructor for some time.


    "It seems you’re not very familiar with Ivan. He’s quite renowned in the mercenary world, a pretty good instructor." Cheng Wn said.


    Xiang Yu didn’t argue. Since Ivan had run away, it wasn’t necessary to bring him up again.


    "There’s one thing I’m puzzled about." Cheng Wn stopped and looked at Xiang Yu: "Why did you join the Orchid Group?"


    Xiang Yu smiled faintly: "I didn’t join voluntarily. Your group leader, Wang Xiao, saw my skills were decent and pulled me in. When the mercenary group was formed, I got pulled into this side in a daze."


    Cheng Wn: "..."


    Xiang Yu wasn’t entirely truthful on this matter. In fact, he approached Cheng Wn with a purpose. He wanted to find out about Zhong Min’s whereabouts and the current situation.


    Finally, he had her whereabouts, but not when he wished for it.


    Cheng Wn didn’t pursue this matter; as long as Xiang Yu wasn’t against her, everything was negotiable.


    "About your friend, what do you n to do?" Xiang Yu finally asked.


    Cheng Wn looked at Xiang Yu with some confusion, sensing that he was overly concerned about this.


    "I’ll find a way gradually." Cheng Wn sighed.


    After all, that ce is heavily guarded by the military; even the rebel army doesn’t dare approach it. How could she attempt a rescue?


    This issue weighed down on Cheng Wn like a mountain, leaving her at a loss.


    "Why not seek other mercenary organizations?" Xiang Yu suggested.


    Cheng Wn sneered and said: "You’re overestimating the mercenary world. They can do anything for money, but there are limits. Asking them to rescue someone from a heavily guarded national key city is a task they’d refuse."


    "Wouldn’t Wolf Fang ept?" Xiang Yu asked offhandedly.


    At the mention of ’Wolf Fang,’ Cheng Wn couldn’t help but tremble all over, a look of yearning in her eyes.


    Wolf Fang is top-tier in the mercenary world, a height many mercenary groups aspire to. Her newly established group is nowhere near their level.


    "I don’t know about that." Cheng Wn answered honestly.


    After all, the mercenary groups she dealt with were those in the nearby cities. The most mysterious was the one Zhong Min was involved with.


    She previously thought Zhong Min was a leader in a mercenary organization. But now, with her captured by **** andbeled a terrorist, she knew things were far from simple.


    Xiang Yu didn’t press further; with his knowledge of mercenary organizations, he probably wasn’t beneath Cheng Wn.


    Cheng Wn’s social circle was still too limited.


    In the past, Xiang Yu had dealt with mercenaries. Some organizations could even influence a country’s regime.


    Cheng Wn feltplicated emotions and sighed: "Even if they could take on the task, I wouldn’t know where to find them, nor could I afford the exorbitantmission."


    Xiang Yu already had an answer in mind. Regardless of Cheng Wn’s approach, he’d lead his team to rescue her friend.


    Though his team only had twenty-five members, he dared guarantee their skills were unmatched by any organization.


    "I can save her." Xiang Yu said suddenly as they walked ahead.


    Cheng Wn was startled and then shook her head: "You can’t. It’s too heavily guarded there."


    Cheng Wn knew Xiang Yu had great skills, and from previous missions, she knew his capabilities were vast.


    But she absolutely refused to let him take on this task.


    In her view, Xiang Yu’s offer was purely for her sake. Zhong Min was her good friend.


    Xiang Yu just wanted to rescue her friend.


    At that moment, Cheng Wn felt touched. She didn’t doubt that if she were captured, Xiang Yu would risk his life to save her.


    Thinking of this made her blush, tenderly gazing at Xiang Yu.


    "As long as you provide the weapons, I’ll take my team to rescue her." Xiang Yu was unaware of Cheng Wn’s chaotic thoughts.


    Seeing the determination in Xiang Yu’s eyes, Cheng Wn’s heart softened. She turned to Xiang Yu and asked: "Why are you so good to me?"


    Xiang Yu was preupied with the rescue, so this sudden turn of events caught him off guard.


    He didn’t understand when he had been good to her; he just wanted to save Zhong Min.


    Cheng Wn thought Xiang Yu was embarrassed to speak his mind, so she turned and continued walking, no longer asking.


    Xiang Yu didn’t know what to say, so he said nothing and followed her ahead.


    He was determined to rescue Zhong Min, no matter the obstacles, even if the path was treacherous and fraught with danger.


    Especially since it was in Little Ba, not his homnd. To save Zhong Min, he’d carve a bloody path without regrets.


    They walked further, but Cheng Wn didn’t agree to supply Xiang Yu with weapons. Without reaching a consensus, they parted ways and returned separately...
