Chapter 436: Fire Phoenix of Shadow One
Fire Phoenix, with wave-like red hair cascading over her shoulders, wore a blue tight-fitting dress that perfectly accentuated her exquisite figure.
As she walked slowly, her steps were light, her gaze indifferent. Despite the absence of any visible aura, her presence made it hard for people to breathe, as if she naturally exuded the majesty of a ruler, chilling the hearts of those who saw her.
People on both sides lowered their heads, embodying a solemn and respectful demeanor, expressing their awe of Fire Phoenix.
"My lady." The suited man's gaze shifted from Habson and the others, adopting a formal posture to bow his greeting.
Habson bowed, maintaining the emotion of meeting a deity, and said, "Sorry to disturb your rest, my lady."
The three members of the Superhero Team involuntarily bowed their heads. In the presence of Fire Phoenix, they seemed like small beasts in the mountains facing the beast king, naturally developing a sense of solemnity.
The hearts of the three were pounding with astonishment. If Ye Fan was a type of master that restrained his power, and one had never seen Ye Fan in action, then they wouldn't know Ye Fan's prowess. Yet, the concentrated aura of majesty from Fire Phoenix immediately made one understand that the beauty before them was not just a thorny rose, but a queen commanding life and death.
The name Fire Phoenix is one she chose herself, and she has had it for less than a year's time.
Fire Phoenix has a prohibition: one must not call the name "Fire Phoenix" directly. Endeavoring to remember this name in your heart is enough. If one lacks certain skills, they dare not utter this name in front of Fire Phoenix.
Uninterested, she waved her hand, and only then did the bowed individuals stand straight, as if it were a rite of worship, not daring to raise their heads without her direction.
This underground boxing ring is a remnant force of the God Organization. Globally, since the event of the Terminator assassinating the top brass, most of the bases suffered annihilating strikes. However, some bases remained intact, including this underground boxing ring. Even if Kasam knew of this, he would not dare send assassins.
Countries bold enough to strike the God Organization are mighty nations. Ba Country does not dare act recklessly.
Even when the God Organization was publicly denounced, the bases in places like Ba Country remained unscathed.
If Ye Fan were here, he would recognize Fire Phoenix at first glance as the identity of Shadow One, one of Terminator's two shadows, quietly working behind the scenes to achieve Terminator's legendary status and myth.
"You must be Habson, the Taimei Company's representative in Ba Country, possessing extraordinary business acumen and methods. For Taimei Company, you are a talent." Fire Phoenix said lightly, "Doesn't the Superhero Team have a few members acting as bodyguards for you? In Ba Country, few could challenge them. Tell me, who drove you into such a corner that you came seeking me for protection?"
The Taimei Company is a multinational corporation, and its branch in Ba Country is merely the tip of the iceberg.
The Superhero Bureau is precisely the foundation upon which Taimei Company survives, relying on the Bureau's fighters to be invincible in the business battleground.
The eight members of the Superhero Team around Habson are merely a fraction of the Bureau's strength.
HaHabson's backer possesses such immense power, yet remains obediently disciplined before Fire Phoenix, illustrating how despite the powerful blows received, the remnants of the God Organization are still so formidable, making the Underworld dread them like tigers.
"Reporting to my lady, recently a new force has emerged in Ba Country, originating from Huaxia's Chu Group. By merging with Poisonous Spider's roots, they annihilated the Lone Wolf Mercenary Corps and established the Wild Alliance Security Company, swiftly becoming a pillar of Ba Country and winning the favor and solicitation of forces like Kasam, Yahward, and Farhadi." Habson cleared his throat and explained in detail, "My lady knows, Taimei Company and Wanpu Company aim to monopolize the business battleground in Ba Country. This instruction has long existed, and after consulting with Okamura Jiro, I decided to eliminate this threat while the Chu Group was still unstable. But unexpectedly, a Ye Fan appeared and, with terrifying strength, crushed our plan effortlessly, resulting in a life-threatening situation that forced me to seek your protection. Across Ba Country and beyond, none can save me but you, my lady."
Habson spoke truthfully, without exaggerating Fire Phoenix in the slightest, sticking strictly to facts.
"Just a flash in the pan, what Chu Group, Ye Fan, to think they could establish themselves in Ba Country is merely wishful thinking," Fire Phoenix mused internally after hearing Habson's words, her expression and tone unchanged. Such trivial matters were beneath her consideration, so upon suddenly hearing about the Chu Group's rise in Ba Country and its considerable power, she was only slightly surprised and didn't care at all.
"The Taimei Company and we have a good relationship, the reason you know about me is because the higher-ups in Taimei Company, considering your heavy responsibilities, made you aware of my identity as a precaution and possibly assist you," Fire Phoenix said slowly, "Take him away. As for the invaders, I'll handle them."
Her tone was full of fearlessness and grandeur, with an air of superiority, entirely disregarding Ye Fan.
"Thank you, my lady." Habson expressed deep gratitude and was then led away.
Fire Phoenix asked with puzzlement, "Who is Ye Fan? What kind of existence is the Chu Group?"
"Reporting to my lady," the suited man bowed before speaking, "the Chu Group in Huaxia is not on the rich list and did not have much fame before, recently gaining fame and almost securing a spot on Huaxia's rich list. Recently, they've been highly active in Ba Country, I sent someone to investigate, but such trivial matters didn't warrant reporting. As for Ye Fan, he's a young man from Huaxia, around twenty-five years old, not very handsome. According to news from Huaxia, since Ye Fan appeared beside Chu Mengyao, the Chu Group's development accelerated. Originally, a shareholder within the Chu Group hired Poisonous Spider to eliminate Chu Mengyao to annex the Chu Group, but unexpectedly, after the successive deaths of the heads of Poisonous Spider, the chief leader Ku Eryue inexplicably pledged allegiance to the Chu Group."
"Interesting, to possess such skills, I must see for myself what kind of almighty being this is," Fire Phoenix's eyes flashed.
At this time, Ye Fan entered the boxing ring.
Ye Fan, upon glimpsing Fire Phoenix, was momentarily taken aback.
Fire Phoenix was also quietly astonished.
