They dare to sink our speedboat, so they dare to blow up the entire freighter!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy was a complete violent maniac.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehe.\" The man with golden hair sneered, then stood up: \"I'm going to talk to Apollo.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the stern of the ship, his gaze distant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, there was an observation deck. At this moment, Ximen Wudi was holding an assault rifle, leaning against the railing, smoking quietly, seeming to be gazing at the stars in the distant sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think my decision might not make Mr. Apollo very happy, but I think you need such a result.\" The man with golden hair said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who are you? What right do you have to represent us!\" This man in black shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the next second, this guy's eyes widened, and then a bloodstain appeared on his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood splattered!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man in black clutched his neck, knelt on the deck, and after rolling continuously for a few laps, he died on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man with golden hair turned slowly, walked back to the cabin, and closed the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the corpse of the man in black lay on the cold deck, gradually stiffening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corner of Ximen Wudi's mouth curled up in an arc, and he said: \"It seems this person is quite polite.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jian said: \"He said you need to recuperate. Does your wound still hurt?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm alright.\" Ximen Wudi grinned: \"I'm just waiting for the enemy to take the bait now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was his style; the more critical the situation, the more one had to remain calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such an environment, the more one couldn't panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss, are we going back now?\" Li Jian asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not for now. Let's just wander around the surroundings.\" Ximen Wudi narrowed his eyes: \"Wait for Lopez to appear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lopez had stayed in America for many years. This time, coming to Huaxia, he had only hurriedly met a few people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His figure was thin, wearing a simple sportswear, canvas shoes, a baseball cap, and sunglasses, looking like an ordinary tourist, and no one suspected him at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind him followed four people, these people had serious expressions, a standard agent look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This combination wouldn't attract anyone's attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lopez wandered around the southeast coast of Huaxia for a few laps, confirmed that Ximen Wudi had already left Huaxia, and only then set off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was going to the West.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for what he was going to do in the West, no one knew, including Lopez himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His figure had completely merged into the night, gradually disappearing from view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>………….\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss, Lopez has already left America. He is rushing to the West now.\" A subordinate reported: \"Can we immediately mobilize helicopters to intercept?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm, we can't delay too much time in Huaxia. I need to rush back to America. This transaction is crucial to us.\" This man with golden hair said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His name was Alex Frederick, one of Lopez's right-hand men.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This blond man is extremely powerful and ranks quite high among Lopez's subordinates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the core figure of this team was Lopez, because of the huge value Frederick had exerted in this mission, his power had also been distributed to other two senior agents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if Lopez wasn't willing to hand over control, then Frederick wouldn't have any complaints at all—this man's brain was absolutely flexible enough; otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to come to Huaxia from America and finally join Lopez's command.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had stayed in America for five years. During this time, he used the resources Lopez left in his hands to accumulate strength. During Lopez's seclusion, Frederick expanded the sphere of influence of this mercenary group several times over, becoming Lopez's most loyal running dog and claw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even, Lopez was already considering handing over this mercenary group to Frederick to manage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this time, Lopez chose to send one of his right-hand men to Huaxia. I really don't know if this counts as a wise choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss, aren't you afraid that we will be attacked halfway? After all, Huaxia's anti-terrorism forces have already set up checkpoints at the border.\" Another senior agent asked with a furrowed brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his view, if Ximen Wudi really dared to appear actively, then they would definitely blast him into slag without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He is Apollo.\" Lopez said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't explain too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So what if he is the Sun God? Could he still defy the heavens and change fate?\" This senior agent still shook his head dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you really encounter the Sun God, don't act rashly.\" Lopez said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why should we listen to him?\" This agent continued to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lopez didn't answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, I'll listen to you, boss.\" This agent answered very respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lopez's gaze was still looking outside the window: \"You might not know that the submarine I operated in Huaxia was blown up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sentence took both senior agents by surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That was the wreckage of an aircraft carrier, which I spent 20 billion USD to buy.\" Lopez said: \"The water ghosts I hired with money all died, so... the remaining one water ghost should be nearby.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pausing for a moment, he added: \"And, it's alive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two senior agents shivered in unison after hearing this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because they clearly remembered that Lopez had personally told them just now that he had sent the \"water ghost\" out to execute a mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But only a few hours had passed, and the other party had already returned?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, they hadn't even been able to find a trace!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You know, in Huaxia waters, wanting to find a living person was simply too difficult!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These people didn't believe Ximen Wudi could do such a thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how fast his speed was, it couldn't be faster than a plane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, next, Lopez's next sentence scared them so much that their souls were lost!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Therefore, you must find him as soon as possible, and then bring him to me.\" Lopez said indifferently: \"If you can't find him, then bring your heads to see me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bring your heads to see me!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the two agents' hair stood on end, and their whole bodies felt cold!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Lopez spoke lightly, he was exceptionally ruthless! This guy was determined to kill the super warrior of the Sun God Temple!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover... those words he said weren't a joke!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at this time, Ximen Wudi wasn't taking a plane, but was driving a broken fishing boat, heading toward the Huaxia capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fishing boat hadn't sailed out of Huaxia territory, but it was already less than three kilometers away from a certain mountain range in northeast Huaxia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ximen Wudi sat at the bow of the boat, drinking wine, smoking, with a very comfortable expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind him, there were dozens of figures wearing camouflage uniforms standing straight, looking like military training instructors, each with a gun tucked into their waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the Sun God Guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were all waiting for Ximen Wudi's order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ximen Wudi looked leisurely, but in fact, his speed wasn't slow. His mind was evolving the previous battle scenes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't worried about his own safety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because, before coming here, the military advisor had urged Ximen Wudi, saying that Lopez was a very cautious man and must not be reckless. Therefore, on the way here, Ximen Wudi had already adjusted his state to the peak, ready to burst out with the strongest combat power at any time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And how much weight this Lopez had, the military advisor wasn't very clear, and she didn't think Ximen Wudi could steadily win against this guy, so this Sun God Concubine had already made the worst plan in her mind—if things didn't go smoothly, she would immediately rush out to rescue Ximen Wudi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, her speed was definitely faster than Lopez's. As long as Ximen Wudi gave a call, she would launch a fierce surprise attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before that, the military advisor still needed to figure out why Ximen Wudi chose to go to the appointment alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Apollo, we have arrived at the island in Southeast Asia.\" At this moment, Ximen Wudi received a text message from Victoria.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1448,"2026-06-15T03:02:23.300Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","927c1e15d8a502265145b4038d367191f308e4353ba98046f7f7331f3a4a9deb","wuxia-shocking-the-empress-at-the-start-chapter-1385","wuxia-shocking-the-empress-at-the-start-chapter-1383",1409,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwuxia-shocking-the-empress-at-the-start-cover.jpg"]
