The Rise of a Special Forces Soldier Abandoned by a Wealthy Family

A temporary interrogation room in the Beijing Military Sub-district, which has been cleared out and is now empty.

The lights were a stark white, shining on the cold walls.

Zeng Linglong's grandmother, uncle Zeng Qiang, aunt Zeng Ting, aunt Zeng Ling, cousin Zeng Xuan, cousin Zeng Yuan, and cousin Zeng Ke—all members of the Zeng family gathered here.

After Zeng Linglong came in, his grandmother hugged him and cried for a very long time.

She knew about Zeng Linglong's condition; her grandson had endured so much suffering, and now he would have to endure another five years of illness.

Other members of the Zeng family also had tears in their eyes and hugged Zeng Linglong.

Until Wu Jun was brought in.

Wu Jun's assistants: Dong Jian, Si Luo, Yingzi, Sawada Ryuichi...

Everyone involved in Zeng Linglong's switcheroo case eighteen years ago has been brought in.

When Wu Jun saw so many people being arrested, his face turned pale and his whole body trembled.

Seeing that his assistant was still alive, his mind went completely blank. He collapsed to the ground, limp and disoriented, muttering:

"How is this possible... how is this possible..."

Zeng Linglong looked down at Wu Jun, who was like a lump of mud, and said in an icy voice:

"Wu Jun, one of the three young masters of Beijing, the eldest grandson of the Wu family, a top family in Beijing, and the pride of Old Master Wu."

He kicked Wu Jun in the chest:

"But you have another identity—a member of the Cosmic Organization, and the sole spokesperson for the Dragon Kingdom."

"I know perfectly well how many dirty tricks you used against your political opponents when you were in politics, and how many dirty tricks you used in business."

He took out an A4 sheet of paper, which was full of Wu Jun's crimes, evidence found from the USB drive.

He slapped the A4 paper hard across Wu Jun's face, ignoring him completely.

Then his gaze fell on Sakura—the culprit who had taken him away right under his mother's and father's noses.

Zeng Linglong looked at her as if she were dead:

"Don't worry, your crimes are enough to warrant death ten times over. You're a member of the Cosmic Organization, the head of the Dragon Kingdom's secret network, and another identity is a spy for the Sun Kingdom."

"Very good, a double agent."

"No wonder your heart is more venomous than a viper."

"Using her sexuality to control hospital leaders, she indirectly caused the death of their wives, and then cooperated with Wu Jun to control and coerce them through intimidation, thereby switching me with someone else."

"In the end, they tricked these people into leaving the Dragon Kingdom and then killed them all."

"You think that just because you did it so perfectly and secretly, I won't be able to find out?"

"Impossible! Impossible! You couldn't possibly know that much!"

"Sakurako's eyes were filled with fear as she shook her head in disbelief."

"A thin figure rushed up to her and slapped her hard across both faces repeatedly."

"You devil! You vicious demon...!"

"My son was so young then, why did you harm him?"

"Why did you switch him with someone else? You made me suffer the pain of separation from my own flesh and blood for so long! You made my Long'er suffer so much pain and torment!"

He Jing cried as she vented her inner pain.

"Hahaha—" Sawada Ryuichi laughed maliciously.

"You should thank your husband."

His hair was disheveled, his teeth were grinding, and he stared at Zeng Sheng:

"Your husband killed my son twenty years ago, he killed my only son!"

"And your Zeng family are all my enemies. My father and my brother both died at the hands of your Zeng family!"

"This is my blood feud! I hate it! I, Sawada Ryuichi, wish the Zeng family would be utterly destroyed!"

He looked at Zeng Linglong:

"Eighteen years ago, I devised such a perfect plan, using all the resources, yet I didn't kill you or destroy your Zeng family."

"I've devised another plan, but I still haven't killed you."

"God has been so unfair to me! Why? Why?"

He roared on the ground like a vicious dog, then wept uncontrollably.

"I am now all alone, a lonely old man filled with hatred. Why aren't you dead, Zeng Linglong?"

He chuckled:

"But I know that even if you don't die now, you won't live much longer."

"Because I used chemical warfare agents, mustard gas will turn you into a cancer patient."

"You won't live much longer, and the team members you lead will slowly die out as well."

"Hahaha! I know I'm not going to live, but with you, Zeng Linglong, and so many of your Chinese special forces soldiers to die with me, it's all worth it for me, Sawada Ryuichi!"

Zeng Linglong looked at him calmly:

"I will make you die with hatred and despair."

"Because I will not die, and neither will the team members I lead."

"Because I can be completely cured, because my team members had already evacuated, and they didn't inhale any mustard gas at all."

Are you very disappointed?

"Impossible!" Ryuichi Sawada shook his head frantically, his face full of disbelief.

Zeng Linglong took out his phone and opened the video.

The scene depicts the final evacuation of the Dragon Shadow team members:

"Look carefully, my team has already withdrawn before your men even arrived."

"And I took all the blame by myself, but I'm still alive and well, and I'm here to judge you."

"I told you, I would make you die in despair and hatred."

"You've spent decades painstakingly infiltrating, all just to obtain the Cosmic Organization, right?"

"But you didn't get it either, yet in the end, it made me who I am."

"But now, I've become the one in charge of the Cosmic Organization."

"Tell me, how ridiculous and sad this is."

"What did you say?" Sawada Ryuichi's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

Zeng Linglong connected with Zeus via video call.

On the phone screen, Zeus sat on his throne, smiling as he spoke:

"Judgment, you should have arrived in the Dragon Kingdom by now, right? What are your instructions?"

Zeng Linglong pointed the screen at Sawada Ryuichi:

"Zeus, your old friend is here. Say hello to him and see him off."

On the screen, Zeus looked at Ryuichi Sawada and chuckled:

"Oh, so you're my strategist! No, I should call you Sawada Ryuichi now—the ace spy of the Sun Country."

"How are you still alive? Still in the Cosmic Organization?" Sawada Ryuichi seemed to be frozen in place.

Zeus's smile was mocking:

"Because the Judgment released me, and because I sided with the Judgment, I am still the God of the Universe, and of course I am in the Universe Organization."

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! You are all deceiving me! God of the Universe, I have been by your side for so many years, you are so proud and arrogant, would you submit to Zeng Linglong? This is impossible!"

Zeus laughed heartily:

"Sawada Ryuichi, you have planned everything, but you don't know that the Judgment already knew about the Cosmos Organization, discovered Wu Jun and Slo, and had people infiltrate the Cosmos Organization's headquarters."

"Your plan is excellent, but you don't know that the Judge has another identity—he is Zero, the captain of Squad Zero."

"He has the Hellfire Mercenary Group, the Imperial Armed Forces and the Sai Armed Forces, as well as many dark forces."

"Even if you, Ryuichi Sawada, take control of the Cosmos Organization, you will still die, and the Cosmos Organization will not fall into your hands."

"So everything you've done is in vain."

"Alright, considering you are a dying man and a pitiful old man in your twilight years, I, the God of the Universe, have taken pity on you and that's why I've said so much to you."
