Cao Yuanliang opened his mouth, but had no way to refute it.

More than 20 years ago, Mu Zhengfeng's project was not only halted, but he also suffered a loss of 20 billion yuan, and was eventually expelled from the Mu family in Lingnan.

Qin Feng glanced at Cao Yuanliang and said calmly, "Bai Xuan is my man. I can't just stand by and watch him lose tens of billions."

"If you insist on transferring me away from the Azure Dragon Guard, I can tell you very clearly that it is absolutely impossible."

Cao Yuanliang's face darkened, and his tone turned cold. "Qin Feng, so you're saying you used the Azure Dragon Guards for personal purposes?"

"Who gave you that right?"

Qin Feng chuckled. "Who told you?"

"The Azure Dragon Guards are here in Binhai for special training, while the old city is my territory!"

"The area is quite spacious, making it ideal for intensive training. Are there any questions?"

"If you're not satisfied, then go find my superiors. As long as they order the Azure Dragon Guards to be transferred, I will obey their orders."

Cao Yuanliang's face was extremely grim. He had contacted the commander of the Azure Dragon Guard before coming here, but the other party hung up the phone as soon as he learned of his purpose.

To put it bluntly, I'm ignoring him.

As for finding someone else, he didn't even dare to think about it.

Yang Xingguo, one of the ten most decorated commanders of the Dragon Kingdom, thought highly of Qin Feng. He guessed that Qin Feng was able to mobilize the Azure Dragon Guard because of Yang Xingguo.

He had no choice but to come because of the pressure from the Longyin Group and the three major families in Beijing.

As a result, he acted impulsively and offended Qin Feng with his words.

Now look what happened; they've ended up pleasing neither side.

He sighed almost imperceptibly and said apologetically, "Young friend Qin, I'm sorry. I got a little emotional just now and said some incoherent things. Please don't take it to heart."

"You're right. This project will most likely be forced to fail due to the interference of those forces."

"As the governor of Binhai, I will absolutely not allow such a thing to happen."

"Tell me, how do you want me to cooperate?"

Qin Feng didn't want to escalate the conflict with Cao Yuanliang, and seeing that the other party had made concessions, his expression softened slightly.

"You don't need to do anything, just do what you're supposed to do!"

"If you don't want to cause trouble, then don't get involved in the old city project anymore. If anyone puts pressure on you, just tell them to go find the Grand Commander of the Azure Dragon Guard themselves."

A bitter smile appeared on Cao Yuanliang's lips. He spoke lightly, but if he really did it, he might lose his position as governor.

However, since things had come to this point, he couldn't say anything more, so he nodded and turned to leave.

After watching Cao Yuanliang leave, a cold glint flashed in Qin Feng's eyes. "You couldn't hold back so quickly?"

"Looks like it's time to add fuel to the fire!"

...

Around 3 p.m.

Qin Feng summoned Yan Xiang and issued an order: 30,000 Qinglong Guards would be placed under complete martial law in the old city and abandoned villa area.

At the same time, hundreds of drones were deployed to patrol the airspace around the old town and abandoned villa areas continuously.

His sole purpose in doing this was to provoke those forces into sending people to investigate.

Then, capture the spies and fabricate a baseless charge to arrest or expel them from the various factions.

As expected, some people quietly sneaked into the old town and abandoned villa area to investigate the situation that night.

Three people were caught in one night.

They came from Yangguo Tiansheng Palace, Xingguo War Department, and Longyin Group, respectively.

All three were peak Xuan Realm martial artists, and Qin Feng personally captured them without causing any disturbance.

Qin Feng did not rush to act. His move to lure out the snakes was intended to draw out most of the forces, not just three.

Over the next few days, people would sneak into the old town and abandoned villa area every night.

Without exception, they were all captured by Qin Feng.

Qin Feng felt that everything that was supposed to happen had happened, and decided to close the net.

That day, he gathered all the people he had captured together, used soul-capturing magic to control them, began interrogating them, and had Qinghe record the interrogation to preserve evidence.

To make such a big fuss, one must have evidence to justify their actions.

Since all the major forces have experts at the Earth Realm, in order not to alert them, it is necessary to take action against all the major forces at the same time.

Qin Feng had no choice but to call Xiao Yu for help, and Xiao Yu sent more than a dozen experts at the Earth Realm.

In addition, he also summoned Meng Heyuan.

After setting a time for the operation, Qin Feng went alone to the hiding place of the spies from the Yang Kingdom's Tian Sheng Palace, located in an uninhabited village in the northwestern suburbs of Binhai.

Upon reaching the airspace above the deserted village, Qin Feng did not land. After locating the spies from the Yang Kingdom's Heavenly Saint Palace, he immediately used the Fireball Technique to release fireballs one after another and threw them down.

As expected, all the spies from the Yang Kingdom's Tian Sheng Palace perished in the fire.

These people from other countries should be treated this way; there's absolutely no need to complain, just eliminate them.

He had previously given orders to the Azure Dragon Guards to kill all the spies from the Star Kingdom's war division and the Dragon Roar Group, leaving as few survivors as possible.

As for those forces within the country, they will not be killed as long as they do not resist.

After all, the networks of these forces are intricate and complex; killing them all would cause a lot of trouble.

One night passed.

All the spies of the Star Kingdom War Department were killed, and all the members of the Dragon Roar Group except for Lu Yutong who escaped were killed.

As for the Ye, Song, and Jiang families, they all wisely requested to leave Binhai, and there were no casualties.

Almost all other forces suffered more than half their casualties, with only a handful managing to escape.

Although they successfully achieved their goal, the Azure Dragon Guard remained stationed in the old city and continued their daily special training.

Qin Feng knew that as long as the ancient tomb remained undiscovered, those forces would not give up, so he decided to try to open it.

However, with his current strength, it was impossible for him to open the ancient tomb, so he planned to seek cooperation with Mu Zhengfeng.

Mu Zhengfeng must know how to open the ancient tomb, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to endure it for so many years.

Since Qin Feng didn't have Mu Zhengfeng's contact information, he had no choice but to call Mu Qingxue.

When the call was first connected, Mu Qingxue's attitude was very cold, but she became warm when she learned that he wanted to see Mu Zhengfeng and invited him to her house for dinner that night.

Around 6:30 p.m., Qin Feng stepped out of his tent and saw Xiao Yu walking towards him with a dark expression.

Although Qin Feng noticed Xiao Yu's pale face, he didn't pay it any mind.

Xiao Yu approached Qin Feng, his face stern, and questioned, "When do you plan to send the Azure Dragon Guards back to the border?"

Qin Feng smiled slightly. "Let's wait a while!"

"Their special training is not yet complete, and ending it prematurely will not achieve the desired results."

Xiao Yu sneered. "Are you trying to fool me?"

“I’m not so easily fooled. The Azure Dragon Guard must return to the border within two days at the latest.”

Qin Feng was speechless. "Keep acting, and see if I'll even give you the time of day?"

He could guess Xiao Yu's purpose for this trip even with his bare hands.

They're just looking for an excuse to extort medicine from you.

The Azure Dragon Guards' special training during this period has yielded remarkable results, with their overall combat effectiveness increasing by at least four to five times.

How could Xiao Yu not know?

Even if you didn't know before, now that you're here, you can see with your own eyes that the Azure Dragon Guard has become stronger as a whole.
