Starting to Gain Experience from Push-Ups Chapter 1463 - 706

Chen Jiandong heard this, the furrowed brow did not relax, and there was a hint of inquiry in his gaze.

Zheng Hongxin walked to the stone bench nearby and sat down, hands folded and leaning on a cane, speaking slowly:

"Last time on Yong’an Island, they lost so many senior cadres, and they even withdrew their local base."

"I had people investigate, and over the past six months, the Noah Organization seems to have pulled back much of their deployed forces from around the world."

He paused and continued:

"A few months ago, Noah Pharmaceutical in East Capital was investigated by the Xia Country authorities. That company outwardly researches biopharma tech, but it is actually the core asset of the Xia Country branch of the Noah Organization, holding very important experimental data and financial lifeblood."

"And according to reliable information, the Noah Building once suffered a severe enemy assault, resulting in a large explosion. The entire branch suffered heavy losses, and many members were arrested by the Special Search Team, nearly wiping them out."

"Currently, it seems very likely that the Noah Organization is overwhelmed, or entangled with other matters, with a much bigger game to play."

Upon saying this, a hint of brilliance flashed through Zheng Hongxin’s murky eyes.

"Moreover, last year, when Luo Lie broke into the headquarters, I fought a great battle with him, deliberately using the title of ’Divine Son’ to deceive him."

"Those guys are inherently suspicious. They probably think we’ve already accessed the underwater Secret Realm and established contact with that mysterious world."

"So before they’re sure of our details, they wouldn’t dare touch this trouble lightly again."

After Teacher An’s analysis of the situation, a bitter smile appeared on the corners of Chen Jiandong’s mouth.

He looked up, glancing at the towering altar.

"Divine Son..."

Chen Jiandong shook his head and sighed:

"We know best in our hearts, there’s no such thing as a Divine Son in the True Thought Society."

"That night, the muscle-bound man with the mask, who on the sea was taking out Noah cadres with a single punch, where exactly did this expert come from? We haven’t even caught a shadow of him."

Zheng Hongxin was silent for a long time.

In his mind, the stormy slaughtering night from half a year ago appeared again.

The tall figure like a Sea God descending still evokes a hidden palpitation when he thinks about it.

"No matter who he is, at least that night he helped us clear out the remnants of the enemy."

Zheng Hongxin tightened his grip on the cane, stamping twice on the rocky ground, creating a dull thud.

"What we need to do now is hold onto the territory of Yong’an Island and closely monitor the progress of the detector, waiting for it to be completed and launched into the water."

"As long as we can successfully enter that world and find the Chairman’s trail, the situation will certainly be reversed."

"As for now, we can only leave it to fate."

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised the back of his hand to cover his mouth, unable to suppress a low cough.

Chen Jiandong lowered his eyes, quietly watching Zheng Hongxin’s hunched figure.

The teacher’s body was already on the verge of mutation due to a congenital bloodline disorder.

After the life-draining battle from half a year ago, he now appeared even more frail, with even steady breathing becoming a luxury.

The reason he managed to endure with this broken body until now.

Part of it relied on a tenacious spiritual will, the other part entirely on the Truth Stele to stabilize vitality and lock in essence.

But the Stele’s spiritual quality is still rapidly depleting, and continuing to consume it cannot last for long.

Chen Jiandong remained silent, silently hoping that the Chairman would return soon to take charge of the overall situation.

In the eyes of outsiders, the True Thought Society entrenched on Yong’an Island is a massive, unfathomable force.

Only these core members know that the entire guild now is like a leak-filled ship, ready to capsize and sink in unknown storms at any moment.

Chen Jiandong could not see the path ahead, his heart a blank slate.

The only thing that can be done now is to exhaust every effort to push forward with the deep-sea exploration plan, somewhat relieving the teacher of some burdens.

Outside the cave, the sea breeze gradually rises.

Far from the daytime hustle, Yong’an Island sheds its glamor, revealing a bit of the unique tranquility of an island.

On the distant harbor breakwater, rows of orange street lamps faintly illuminate the dim docks.

The moored fishing boats ride the swells up and down, the navigation lights on the masts alternately flashing in the night.

A full moon hangs high, its cold white glow scattered over the undulating sea surface, reflecting tiny shimmering waves.

If viewed from above, the entire island floats in isolation on the sea, like a lone boat surrounded by boundless darkness.

In the top-floor suite of the hotel, the lights are off, and the air conditioning runs silently.

Fang Cheng stood in front of the wide floor-to-ceiling window, his gaze moving past the bustling commercial street nearby, staring quietly at the distant, deep sea.

After arriving on Yong’an Island this afternoon, he first accompanied Wen Xin to fly kites on the beach for half a day, watching the little girl and Pan Wendi play and splash around in the shallow water.

After nightfall, the group also strolled through the island’s unique outdoor night market, eating a lot of charcoal-grilled oysters and local snacks along the way until the little girl was too full to walk any further.

The long journey, coupled with the high-intensity play of half a day, left Zhou Xiumei and Wen Xin, already of average physical strength, drained early on.

To restore their spirits and prepare for tomorrow’s diving at the natural coral reef on the east side of the island, the group, having eaten and drank their fill, returned to the hotel and each went back to their rooms to rest.

After watching the night view outside the window for a while, Fang Cheng retracted his gaze and turned to the large double bed.

He kicked off his slippers and flipped onto the bed.

After adjusting his sitting posture in the center of the bedding, his hands naturally dropped, interlacing at his Dantian area on his abdomen.
