<h4>Chapter 1674: Chapter 1675: The Current Situation in Xiba</h4>


    Two dayster, Scar was watching the training of his brothers when suddenly the phone rang. It was from one of his subordinates.


    "What’s up?" Scar asked directly.


    "Commander, we’ve already investigated Meng Hu and his people." The person replied.


    Upon hearing that it was about the Menghu Mercenary Corps, Scar took the phone back to his office.


    "Go ahead." Scar said.


    "Meng Hu is a local born and raised here. Initially, he was a well-known fighter in the mercenary world and eventually became the boss. But their influence was quite small, just like the current Heavenly Dragon Mercenary Corps. Later on, someone secretly supported him, which led to their rapid development." The person exined.


    "Who’s supporting them?" Scar asked with a serious face.


    "We’re currently investigating, but one thing is certain: the force behind them is not simple." The person answered.


    "Nonsense." Scar suddenly shouted, "I asked you to investigate the force behind them, and this is what you found out?"


    "I’m sorry, Commander, the force backing them is too deeply hidden. It’s not simple for us to investigate; therefore, I hope you can seek assistance from higher-ups." The person calmly replied.


    Scar took a deep breath and rxed his emotions, then said, "You continue investigating. I will report this to the higher-ups."


    After finishing his sentence, Scar hung up the phone. It now seemed that the sudden disappearance of the Power Mercenary Group likely had something to do with Meng Hu and his people.


    The Power Mercenary Group was quite powerful, and to eliminate them in one night was impossible without some support from higher-ups.


    Scary back in his office chair to calm himself, then picked up the phone and made a call.


    The phone rang twice before someone answered on the other end.


    "Scar, long time no see." A middle-aged man’s voice came from the other side, sounding very steady.


    "Captain, I’ve encountered some issues here and hope you can assist." Scar asked politely.


    Then Scar exined the matter with Meng Hu. The person was somewhat surprised too, but reassured Scar that they would quickly investigate the situation.


    After hanging up, Scar recalled Meng Hu’s expression at that time, seeming as if they were not afraid of him at all.


    "Meng Hu, you’re hiding very well," Scar murmured with a sneer.


    When he was assigned to Sabah, he was initially reluctant because he felt the battlefield here was too small to fully utilize his capabilities.


    However, after arriving, he realized the situation here was far moreplex than he imagined.


    His goal was to unify Sabah’s mercenary world within two years, but now a year and a half had passed, and their influence had only expanded a little, while Wolf Fang and others had surpassed him.


    This gave him a sense of frustration, and thinking about these things made him uneasy. Just then, the image of Xiang Yu suddenly shed in his mind.


    This troublemaker definitely has someone supporting him from behind, either Wolf Fang or the Menghu Mercenary Corps.


    The Menghu Mercenary Corps was the biggest unexpected change he predicted. He now needed to figure out the force behind them to proceed with his next actions.


    After the events of that day, Meng Hu remained very low-key and had not appeared in front of people these days.


    In his own base office, Meng Hu was also reporting the situation over the phone.


    "Commander, I need to report something to you." Meng Hu said with an ufortable look on his face.


    "Go ahead." The person said straightforwardly.


    If Xiang Yu were standing there, he would immediately recognize the voice, as it was all too familiar to him. It was Commander Cao.


    "Due to some minor issues, we’ve had a bit of a conflict with the Timberwolves." Meng Hu confessed with some guilt.


    At the time, Commander Cao’s order was to win over all forces for their use, and Meng Hu had always been doing so.


    "What happened?" Commander Cao’s tone was very calm, not getting angry over the matter.


    Hearing Commander Cao’s calm voice, Meng Hu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and then briefly exined the situation that happened.


    He did not mention Xiang Yu’s involvement. Xiang Yu was merely a minor character, not worth mentioning at all.


    "You did the right thing, don’t me yourself. The Timberwolves aren’t so terrifying; their reputation precedes them, but they’re just a mercenary group after all." Commander Cao stated.


    Hearing Commander Cao’s tone, it was clear he didn’t think much of the Timberwolves mercenary group.


    Upon hearing this, Meng Hu was very shocked, but also more delighted.


    All he knew was that his boss was Commander Cao, but he had no idea how extensive the organization was or what other forces were involved.


    Commander Cao gave off a very mysterious vibe, but he was not to be disobeyed.


    Previously, he thought that organizations like the Timberwolves and Wolf Fang were thergest in the world, next to nations.


    But now, it suddenly felt like that might not be the case. His organization should not be smaller than those.


    With that thought, he felt more confident and determined to carry out Commander Cao’s orders thoroughly.


    Commander Cao also outlined the future direction of development to Meng Hu and then hung up the phone.


    After putting down the phone, Commander Cao just shook his head and smiled slightly. He stood up and walked to a wall.


    He activated a switch on the wall, revealing arge screen disying a world map with numerous small gs marked all over.


    He used his finger to zoom in on Sabah, which instantly expanded significantly. Within Sabah’s borders, there were still many small gs. He tapped on one, which was marked as the Power Mercenary Group, and then made notes there.


    Xiang Yu and his people appeared carefree on the surface every day, but he was secretly developing his influence.


    Since they nned to establish a foothold in Sabah, there had to be a massive informationwork built.


    In this matter, Xiao Xuan was more suitable, thus Xiao Xuan selected elite members of the mercenary group and had them go undercover.


    Meanwhile, Xiao Xuan was also secretly training them.


    In fact, Xiang Yu could entirely bring in Han Rumei. Han Rumei had always been the head of Dragon Heart in the homnd, responsible for The Dark Department’s intelligence work.


    Han Rumei had already established aplete intelligencework at home, capable of detecting any major event urring there.


    However, the situation here was somewhat different from that at home, so Xiang Yu ultimately did not transfer her over here.


    When Xiao Xuan first started following Xiang Yu, he was responsible for intelligence work and thus had rich experience.


    Since the intelligence work had just begun, it was impossible to monitor all forces; they focused their energy on the Clover group first.


    Xiang Yu’s next target was Clover, first to avenge Ren Qing, and second because Clover was internally divided, potentially facing internal conflict in the near future. He intended to eliminate Cloverpletely at that time.


    During this process, more and more people joined their Heavenly Dragon Mercenary Corps. They had only one reason for defecting: because the leader was Xiang Yu...
