"Dark!" Hearing the old man's words, Meng Fan seemed to come to his senses. He muttered to himself for a moment, as if he was trying to remember something. However, from his tone this time, he seemed to be much calmer than before.

"Why are you looking for me? I really don't know. However, if I'm not wrong, 'Dark' is a country's power. It has nothing to do with retired mercenaries like me!" Moreover, I just want to live in my hometown, and don't seem to have touched on the rules you have set! "

After hesitating for a moment, Meng Fan looked directly at the old man and spoke in a tone that was neither humble nor haughty. As he spoke, Meng Fan intentionally looked at the beautiful young woman called Little Shadow, as if he were considering something.

"Haha!" "Actually, we have been following you since you entered the country. However, with the interference of the Zhou family, we did not want to get involved. Besides, you have been quiet recently and did not provoke any trouble. Besides, you are working for the country now!"

The old man laughed heartily at Meng Fan's words, but didn't respond. Instead, he began to talk about something that didn't seem related to him. Meng Fan's thoughts began to spin.

Meng Fan was well aware of what the old man meant. He was clearly trying to show that he hadn't caused Meng Hao any trouble in the past few days. That was why he had let Meng Hao go.

Ever since he had returned to his hometown, everything had been considered to be safe. Although there had been some small problems in Dragon City, at least he had been sent to prison for his crimes. Although he had escaped later, it was not something he could control.

After getting to know Zhou Zheng, he changed his identity and got rid of his previous identity to a certain extent. Although there were a lot of things happening in Binhai recently, his goal was to protect the drug, which was also part of the national research institute, but it could be said that he helped them a lot.

After all, he was Zhou Qing's bodyguard, and no matter what, he worked for Zhou Zheng. With the addition of all the things he had done recently, he had helped them.

After thinking this through, Meng Fan felt a sense of relief. He then continued to look at the old man with a smile, "After I returned home, I was always very honest. Even if there were some troubles, they seemed to have saved you a lot of trouble! You guys wouldn't just expel me like this, right? "

After saying that, Meng Fan's expression became serious as he stared at the old man in front of him, as if he was trying to discern something from him.

As far as Meng Fan was concerned, he was already tired of drifting about in the outside world. After returning home, many things had happened, but Meng Fan felt much more at ease.

Although Meng Fan had been expelled from many countries, he didn't want to be expelled from his own country. After all, his parents and friends were here. If he left just like that, even he wouldn't be willing to give up.

As a former mercenary and killer, being expelled was a very common occurrence. At the very least, in Meng Fan's lifetime, he would probably never be able to enter any other great countries through official means. His records were very detailed in those countries, and he believed that as long as he entered, he would be expelled, just like he was now, by the country's intelligence organizations.

"You misunderstand! No matter what, you and I are from the same nation. Even though the things that you did a few years ago were somewhat preposterous, they did not endanger your homeland. I have no reason to expel you! " In response to Meng Fan's words, the old man gave a light chuckle, then gave Meng Fan a profound look and continued.

"However, I would really like to see the figure in your hands!"

"Chengying?" Meng Fan frowned and looked at the old man without blinking. After a soft hum, he continued, "I'm afraid that the matter regarding Chengying has already been explained in Dragon City. The people from those powers have all gone searching for him based on their own abilities. All of you have been staring at me, do you really believe that Cheng Ying is in my hands? "

"Of course!" As soon as Meng Fan finished speaking, the old man's face grew serious. He spoke with determination, as if he already knew that Cheng Ying was in Meng Fan's hands. He didn't hesitate at all.

The old man's reaction caused Meng Fan to be shocked. From the moment he had obtained the Shadow, even if he included himself, there were only four people who knew about it; other than Liu Xia and himself, as well as the woman who had helped him obtain the Shadow, only Liu Xu knew about it. Now that the old man was so sure of it, how could he not be shocked?

"Haha!" "Don't be surprised. With our" hidden "forces, if we don't even know what's in our territory or who's in it, how can we call it" hidden "?" Seeing Meng Fan's bewildered expression, the old man laughed loudly and looked at Meng Fan with a profound expression.

When Meng Fan heard this, his expression froze. Then, he seemed to have thought of something and immediately came to a realization. He no longer denied anything and instead looked at the old man and asked, "Then why did you call me?"

He was waiting for an answer from the old man. After all, considering the old man's status, Meng Fan knew he could not afford to offend him, so he had to be more careful with his words. Although he had questions in his mind, he didn't dare to ask them directly.

"Of course it's for Cheng Ying! But don't worry, we aren't asking you to hand over the shadow, we just want you to cooperate a bit! " As the old man spoke, he tapped the table with his finger, forming a rhythmic sound.

Meng Fan's mind raced, and he couldn't help but squint as he carefully observed the old man. However, as the old man tapped the table with his finger, Meng Fan was shocked to find that the sound of the old man's finger tapping was actually consistent with his heartbeat.

Meng Fan was familiar with these techniques. They were just some subtle means of negotiation that allowed the other party to subconsciously control their breathing and reach an agreement with the sound, thus controlling the atmosphere in the room.

As he thought about it, Meng Fan's expression did not change. He secretly took precautions against the old man in front of him as he chuckled, "I admit that Chengying is in my hands, but I do not wish for him to appear in this world. Otherwise, it might not belong to me anymore. I'm really curious! "

"Meng Fan!" Do not think that this is some secret, because the news of Cheng Ying in your hands is no longer a secret. If you did not bring Cheng Ying back to the country, you would have already been hunted down and killed in a foreign land! "

However, before the old man could even say anything, the beautiful young woman called Little Shadow snorted coldly and said something that caused Meng Fan to be shocked.

"What did you say?" After all, to him, the matter of Cheng Ying was a top secret. However, to Meng Hao, it seemed that many people knew that he had Cheng Ying in their hands.

From his words, it wasn't hard to tell that Meng Fan had every reason to believe that he had Cheng Ying in his hands. The old man's previous actions hadn't been an act either, and that was enough to surprise Meng Fan.

Of course, what surprised Meng Fan the most was the content of the words of Little Shadow. Many people knew that Cheng Ying was in his hands, and that the reason why these forces hadn't acted yet was because he was returning home.1

After all, if what Little Shadow said was true, then this matter was no ordinary matter. The only thing that could be considered fortunate was that after he obtained Shadow Bearing, he already had the thought of returning to his own country, and thus was able to avoid a calamity.

When he thought about this, Meng Fan couldn't help but feel a bit scared. He subconsciously looked at the old man, but the old man didn't try to stop Little Shadow. He even looked at him meaningfully.

"What she said was true! So, you need our help, and we also need your cooperation. This time, you have a reason to work with 'Shadow', right? " Noticing the expression on Meng Fan's face, the old man's expression suddenly became serious. He looked at Meng Fan with a solemn expression as he spoke.

"How do you want me to cooperate?" After learning all of this, Meng Fan was well aware of the seriousness of the situation. After learning of the critical details, he looked over at the old man and asked the question.

Meng Fan had always been someone who knew how things stood. Currently, he was in the country, and in Little Shadow's words, he had already been targeted by many great powers. And these powers, since they could be considered "hidden", were clearly not existences like the Wolf King.

Now that the 'hidden' people had taken the initiative to look for him, he naturally had reason to work with them. At the very least, he could ensure the strength of his side.

"Very simple!" I don't care how you make Chengying appear in the world, as long as he appears in the country. Once he appears, he can lure the snake out of its cave! This is the result I wanted! " Seeing that Meng Fan was no longer against him, the old man's face relaxed, and he unhesitatingly explained.

"Penetrating Shadow has appeared? "You must know, if I were to appear in the world, I will definitely become the center of this storm. I'm afraid that even if there are people who are" hidden "among you, I will still be in danger!" Hearing the old man's explanation, Meng Fan frowned. Although he didn't reject him, he clearly didn't approve of his plan.

"When did you become so careful?" Don't worry! I naturally have my own plans. With 'hidden' forces, protecting you in the country is still very simple! "Of course, you can also choose to be expelled by us. When the time comes …"

"Alright!" I promise, but I hope that you will not interfere in my actions and at the same time grant me some privileges! " Meng Fan didn't wait for the old man to finish speaking. He suddenly opened his mouth and interrupted him. He had already agreed to the old man's previous request, but had also offered his own conditions.

As far as Meng Fan was concerned, he could imagine the result of his expulsion. Not only would he be exposed to the other powers, he would also be the target of the old man's attention. In the end, he would be the target of public criticism.

With that in mind, Meng Fan had no choice but to comply with the old man's request. However, in terms of cooperation, he had made his own request, which was also Meng Fan's last resort.

However, he would never give up the benefits that he deserved. When he said this, he did not hesitate at all, as if the old man would really take the initiative to appear in front of him if he refused his request. Instead, he began to threaten the old man.
