"They want to suppress my development?" Fade was shocked.

"Master Zhu replied, "Yes, they want to suppress not only your fighting abilities but also your status. They can't really do much to intervene with your fighting skills, but they can intervene with your development Hence, it will cause you to lose influence."

"In Capital City, you have Szeto Academy, Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc, Sincere Medicine Center, not to mention your collaboration with the Luo and Hsing family. Your forces are considered one of the most prominent ones in Capital City."

"How do they want to suppress me?" Fade raised his eyebrows and asked.

"The reason to your fast development was due to how powerful you are in martial arts. You would just directly defeat whoever stands in your way," Master Zhu explained.

He added, "So this time, they deliberately raised the murder of the Hsia family as an attempt to suppress your martial arts. You are so highly skilled in martial arts, and you would use this to your advantage to restrain all the ordinary civilians. Thus, they purposely resurfaced this matter and let the higher-ups see how terrifying your martial arts skills are, as they wanted them to be wary of your skills." Speaking of this, Fade finally understood their motives.

He nodded, glanced at Master Chu and spoke, "Have the higher-ups made up their mind?"

Master Zhu went silent for a moment, then nodded and answered, "Yes."

"So?" Fade pried further.

"The higher-ups still have quite a sharp eye. They could tell that with regards to the murder of the Hsia family, you were just trying to defend yourself. But in terms of abusing your martial arts skills, a few of them still had different opinions about it.

At last, they decided to restrict the martial artists, especially those that are far too powerful and abuse their power. The Martial Arts League and Stealth will officially conduct an operation called "Operation Rainstorm" tomorrow."

Hearing this, Fade finally understood.

This operation was to restrict their use of martial arts. As such, this would prevent them from overpowering other people and taking advantage of their martial arts to achieve their motives.

Master Zhu looked at Fade and kept silent. He couldn't help but feel uneasy.

He was also a Heaven Level martial artist. Hence, he knew exactly how terrifying the strength of a Martial Arts Master was. What's more, Fade was still so young.

If they really offended Fade and he decided to vent his anger out on society, the outcome would be a nightmare.

Therefore, when Master Zhu explained Operation Rainstorm, he was incredibly careful with his words. After all, Fade's fate was unpredictable.

Even if he wasn't offended, as long as he was dissatisfied with the high-ups, it would surely be a great loss to the country.

Fade noticed the fluctuating emotions in Master Zhu's eyes, and he could guess what was going on in his mind.

From Fade's point of view, he couldn't care less about the higher-ups' decision or the Zhao family or Dannon's attempt to suppress him at all. If he was really pissed, he would just directly slap them to death, and he wouldn't need to care about it much.

Nevertheless, he was not a lone ranger. He had so many friends and companies that relied on him.

Therefore, after giving it some thought, Fade finally nodded and responded to Master Zhu, "I certainly support the decision to carry out Operation Rainstorm. And I won't abuse my power, but provided I am not angered."

Hearing this, Master Zhu's uneasy face relaxed. He breathed a sigh of relief and said to Fade, "Fade, I'm pleased to hear that you are on board with their decision. I thank you on behalf of them for being so understanding."

"Master Zhu, there is no need to thank me. I still have something else to attend to. Can I take my leave first?" Fade uttered.

"Yes, of course you can. I'll get Hollace to send you back right away," Master Zhu hurriedly replied. Hollace and Lucille quickly walked over.

Fade nodded his head and immediately headed out of the interrogation room. Then, Hollace and Lucille personally drove Fade back to the company.

When Fade went back to his office upstairs, he saw that not only Lily and Yankee were inside, even Liza was there too.

"Liza, why are you here?" Fade was puzzled.

Liza gave him a blank look and scolded, "Fade, you promised to have lunch with me at noon. I waited for you for more than an hour and you were still nowhere to be found. So, I went and called

Miss Wei."

She continued, "I rushed over to your company the moment I heard that you were arrested."

"Fade, are you alright? They didn't do anything to you?" Lily asked solicitously.

Yankee also looked at Fade with a worried expression.

Fade waved his hand with a smile, sat on the sofa, and assured in a relaxed tone, "Don't worry, it's okay. I'm back safe and sound, aren't I?"

"But those people are from the Martial Arts League. They..." Lily was still a little worried.

Liza also asked, "Fade, I heard that you've been involved in some trouble recently. Do you mind telling me what they are? Maybe I can lend you a hand."

Fade glanced at the concerned gazes of the girls opposite him, sighed softly, and then told them the entire story in detail.

For Liza to understand more, he explained the conflict he had with the Ding family and even the shipping issue he encountered.

After hearing this, Lily couldn't help frowning and stared at Fade with a concerned expression. "Is it really okay that the Zhao family is deliberately stirring up trouble for you?"

Fade waved his hand and comforted, "It's okay. Although the Zhao family is called the imperial guards, they aren't the real bodyguards for the officials. There are some people that they can't lay their hands on." "But the Operation Rainstorm. You..." Lily was still anxious.

Fade did not take it seriously and added, "I'm not the only one who is restricted by Operation Rainstorm. There are other martial artists, which also includes the Zhao family. What's more, besides martial arts, I excel in other areas too."

Looking at how confident Fade was, Lily finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, Liza put away her mobile phone, walked over to Fade with a smile and said, "Fade, I have good news to tell you."

"What good news?" Fade was a little curious. Just now, Liza went out to make a phone call without saying anything after listening to Fade's story.

Liza sat opposite Fade and stated, "The biggest problem your company is currently facing is freight transport."

"That's right." Fade and Lily nodded at the same time.

Liza declared with ease, "Then, this is something easy to solve. Just let me handle it."

"Let you handle it? This..." Fade was puzzled for a moment.

Liza blinked at Fade and chuckled. "Fade, don't forget. I am now not only a foodie, but the head of the Hachi Clan."

She continued, "Our Hachi Clan does provide freight transport services. We can help you with your problem."
