“I see!” Gu Zhengrong finally understood. Leng Hanfeng was uncertain about his identity so he came back. “There is another thing I want to ask you. When did I reveal myself and made you certain that I’m not the person you are looking for? How did you know that I will attack you.”

When Leng Hanfeng stopped his ambush accurately, he knew that he had already been exposed. It meant that Leng Hanfeng had already concluded that he was an enemy, not a friend.

“When you used your domain,” Leng Hanfeng replied to him directly.

“My domain? What’s wrong with my domain?” Gu Zhengrong was confused.

“It’s weird. It made me feel uncomfortable!” Leng Hanfeng turned and looked at the domain realm master who was stopped by his lightning bolt. He said in a cold voice, “He gave me the same feeling too, including the first domain realm master we met. You all possess different elements but the feeling you gave off is the same, and it made me uncomfortable.”

Actually, Leng Hanfeng already felt uncomfortable the first time Gu Zhengrong used his secret skill. At that time, he just thought that it was because of the secret skill. Hence, he didn’t think deeper into it. However, Gu Zhengrong shouldn’t have fought with the domain realm master for ten seconds, as it created a scene that made him realize the similarities in their domains.

At that moment, Leng Hanfeng started suspecting Gu Zhengrong. He helped him escape but he guarded against him too.

“That is why you purposely tie me on a tree and said those words to me, right? You want to make me believe that you are a soldier and was duty-bound to finish your mission which is to investigate the headquarters.” Gu Zhengrong found all the answers he needed. He knew why he had failed to find his enemy’s base inside the school.

“If you are still unconscious on the tree when I came back, I might have brought you back to my base camp. However, your patience is not as good as I imagined.” Leng Hanfeng could be as irritating as Gu Zhengrong when he talked.

Gu Zhengrong turned red in anger when he heard this. He gritted his teeth. This was why he didn’t like Leng Hanfeng. He had three temporary roommates, and Little Brother Shaoyun was best out of the three as he was cute and harmless.

“All in all, you were acting. You wanted to force me to attack. Not bad, as a domain realm master, you were willing to be beaten up so badly. Are you not afraid of being laughed at?” Gu Zhengrong retaliated.

“It’s good to be cautious as a mistake could be lethal.” Leng Hanfeng had his suspicion but before the other party attacked him, he would not reveal himself easily. He was afraid that he would make a wrong judgment and hurt his friend.

“Leng Hanfeng, you are cautious I give you that, but I think that you are too indecisive. How could you wait for me to attack when you are being chased by a domain realm master?” Gu Zhengrong smiled.

Leng Hanfeng replied, “A domain realm master is not a threat to me.”

“True. For someone who has the most powerful offensive element, you should be confident. Unfortunately, your overconfidence and your indecisive personality will kill you.” As Gu Zhengrong finished talking, purple lightning bolts formed on his hand which was being held by Leng Hanfeng. The sound of electricity was apparent.

The strong electricity forced Leng Hanfeng’s hand away and pushed Leng Hanfeng a few meters back, but the lightning spears that were pointing at the domain realm master’s throat didn’t move. Instead, it had lengthened itself.

“A lightning domain?” Leng Hanfeng frowned. He had prepared himself for the fact that Gu Zhengrong was a domain realm master. Furthermore, after experiencing the domain of his two opponents, he was confident that he could subdue them. However, the element that Gu Zhengrong had was unexpected as he had the lightning element too.

“Didn’t you use the earth element? Is your innate talent not of the earth element?” Leng Hanfeng remembered that when Gu Zhengrong fought with the first domain realm master they met, he used an earth domain. The element of the domain stem from the innate talent of a person, and there was only one innate talent in a single person... so why did Gu Zhengrong have two totally different elements? Leng Hanfeng was puzzled.

The domain realm master who was currently threatened by lightning spears by his throat smiled. He said proudly, “He is the most perfect creation of our organization. His innate talent is the strongest innate talent in the universe.”

“The strongest innate talent?” Leng Hanfeng was stunned. He didn’t know that there was an innate talent that could allow a person to use two different elements.

The lightning spear started crackling menacingly in Gu Zhengrong’s hand. It looked the same as the one Leng Hanfeng had in his hand. Gu Zhengrong looked at his weapon with satisfaction. He could sense the dangerous lightning energy coursing through his body. This was the domain he wanted. It was worth going to the Central Scout Academy for this.

“I don’t know what kind of innate talent can be considered the strongest in the world.” His lightning innate talent was keyed as the strongest in terms of offensive ability, but it didn’t dare to be called the strongest innate talent. “Even if there is one, it will only appear in the future. It will not be something someone already has.”

“No, this innate talent has already appeared. Your military just missed it.” Gu Zhengrong smiled proudly. “However, our organization didn’t. We spent more than 20 years trying to decipher this innate talent, and it was finally passed onto me.”

“You make me curious. What kinds of innate talent did our military miss? What innate talent made you all so crazy? You were willing to spend so much time and manpower trying to decipher this innate talent.” Leng Hanfeng was really curious.

Gu Zhengrong smiled happily. “A god-class operator, one of the ten generals in your Federation, Ling Xiao. His innate talent is Duplication. That is the strongest innate talent in the world. However, you all didn’t seem to notice it. As for Ling Xiao, I’m not sure if he understands his true capability. I don’t even know if he is a domain realm master yet.”

Leng Hanfeng’s expression changed entirely. “If he is a domain realm master, he would know that he could duplicate other people’s domain, right?”

Leng Hanfeng now understood why Gu Zhengrong had the lightning element. The other party duplicated his domain. The earth domain from before was duplicated from someone else’s domain too. From the looks of it, the innate talent of duplication was indeed the strongest.

Gu Zhengrong smiled. He had said everything he could. The information which couldn’t be said would be kept a secret.

As for Ling Xiao’s secret, it was time to let it spread. Ling Xiao’s existence helped to keep the Federation safe for long enough. In the past, other countries had no choice but to hold back their desires to attack, but this didn’t align with the motive of their organization. Hence, they must swarm Ling Xiao with problems so that he wouldn’t have the time to care about them. That way, they could fish in troubled waters.

“Ah, my father’s innate talent is the strongest one. He can duplicate other people’s domains. Woah! As expected of my father, he is so strong.” Little Four’s eyes were filled with respect. He was elated.

On the other hand, Ling Lan was worried. If Leng Hanfeng told the Flying Dragon Special Forces about this, it would be troublesome for her father. Ling Lan believed that the Federation would not let anyone with this powerful innate talent have any freedom.

In that instant, Ling Lan wanted to kill the three people in front of her, including Leng Hanfeng who was from the Flying Dragon Special Forces. This was the only way her father’s secret would remain a secret. However, she calmed down quickly.

Since the other party said Ling Xiao’s secret so blatantly, it meant that they had made ample preparations. It would not be of any help if she killed the three of them. The organization that Gu Zhengrong was in would use other channels to spread the secret.

Ling Lan sighed. She hoped that her father could safely pass through this crisis.

“I’m still too weak...” Ling Lan was a low-level officer. She couldn’t help her father in confrontations between high-ranking officers. “Looks like I have to become stronger and climb up the hierarchy. This is the only way I can help father...” Ling Lan felt a strong sense of urgency.

Both parties got what they wanted. Leng Hanfeng and Gu Zhengrong didn’t have any intentions of talking to each other anymore. They looked at each other in the eyes silently for three seconds. Suddenly, the domain realm master who was threatened by Leng Hanfeng’s lightning spears moved away quickly. When he finally escaped from the spears, he felt a huge sense of relief.

Leng Hanfeng showed him some mercy because he wanted to focus on Gu Zhengrong. If not, the domain realm master would not have succeeded so easily.

At the same time, Leng Hanfeng and Gu Zhengrong attacked one another.

The shrill sound of electricity echoed through the forest.

Two lightning spears collided. Sparks flew everywhere. The two of them were on par with one another. After a few rounds of fighting, the domain realm master at the side noticed a weakness and decided to act.
