Over eight hundred years ago, a terrifying conqueror appeared on the Asian continent.
His swords tore through every civilized world he could see. His armies swept across Eurasia, and his iron hooves made all the kings of the world tremble.
He was the most fearsome warrior under the Eternal Sky, the founder of the Golden Family, a conqueror whose legend would live for ten thousand ages.
He was Temujin.
He was Genghis Khan!
The bloodline of the Golden Family had never been severed, and the legacy of the Eternal Sky's most favored warrior had never been extinguished.
Eight hundred years later, a great descendant appeared in the Golden Family.
He was as brave and wise as his greatest ancestor, Genghis Khan.
He was determined to inherit his ancestor's glory and once again spread the honor of the Golden Family across the globe.
In that dark, chaotic era of warlordism, he was almost successful. With just one more step, he would have become the ruler of China.
But he retreated at the height of his power, and no one knew why. By the time he reappeared before the public, the world had changed beyond recognition.
China had entered a new era, and he was just a piece of trash in the dusty archives of history.
He changed his name, no longer using his Golden Family name, because using that name would only tarnish his ancestors' honor before he achieved his goal.
Only when he succeeded would he adorn the crown of the Golden Family with the most beautiful gem.
His current name is the Mandarin. His abilities strike fear into his enemies, but times have changed.
Even if he had deciphered the profound scriptures passed down through his family, it couldn't guarantee that he would become the King of China again.
Because the Divine Spear Bureau had reassembled, and its 'God-Sealing' operations repeatedly thwarted his schemes.
The Chinese government never showed any mercy to individuals of a terrorist nature. So, even with his profound power, the Mandarin could only hide in the remote corners of China.
He organized the Ten Rings to work for him. The main work of this gang was to earn money for him globally and to train soldiers.
Of course, most of their activities were illegal, because the Mandarin's goal was to overthrow the government and once again become the King of China.
They had launched multiple underground wars, but the progress of these wars was unsatisfactory. The Divine Spear Bureau's control over China was too strong.
The Chinese government, didn't like to ignite fires all over the world, but instead concentrated all its power domestically. In the last war, they had lost most of their base in the Western Regions.
Now, the Divine Spear Bureau was fully engaged in rooting out the Ten Rings, and within China, traces of the Ten Rings were virtually impossible to find.
Even the Mandarin had temporarily retreated to Outer Mongolia, no longer directly confronting China.
He was just an individual. Even with many trump cards, he still couldn't compare to the superpower that is China. No one can directly contend with a national machine.
He began to expand his influence outward, to countries where domestic control was less strict. Such as the chaotic Middle East, the fragmented Eastern Europe after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and weaker South Asian countries.
Development requires money, and where does money come from? Of course, stealing it from others is the fastest way. As a Chinese man, the Mandarin had no pity for foreigners.
Among foreign enterprises, the most renowned were the three multinational corporations: Shisida Corporation, Osborn Group, and Stark Industries.
Fortunately, the Ten Rings received a deal, and the content of the deal was to kill Tony Stark, the heir of Stark Industries.
This naturally attracted his attention. A genius arms inventor might bring him great benefits, but his foolish subordinates actually let him escape.
However, after seeing the surveillance footage of Tony's escape, it sparked great interest in Tony.
If he could obtain the technology for this armor, he could manufacture a bunch of armored soldiers, overthrow China, and once again become the King of China.
These design blueprints were incomplete, lacking the core technology: the miniaturized arc reactor. So, he issued an ultimatum to his subordinates in the Middle East: Tony Stark must be brought back.
But the Ten Rings in New York, United States, told him that this foolish subordinate had messed things up again.
It was just a pity that he couldn't go to the United States now, otherwise, he would have personally taken action and captured Tony Stark directly.
"Useless things that do more harm than good." The Mandarin's face was gloomy.
The Divine Spear Bureau's 'God-Sealing' operations in China were increasingly pressuring him, and the situation in the Middle East had been completely destroyed by Tony Stark.
Now, he dared not show his face. Doing so would attract the Divine Spear Bureau. The water in China is very deep, and even he could only get involved a little.
China's superheroes completely obeyed the government's commands, and so did the Eight Immortals.
If he dared to cause any major news in China, the next ones to come would not be the God-Sealing agents, but the Eight Immortals.
However, as an ambitious villain, he had long considered China his own possession and would not cause too much destruction. Now, he needed to lay low for a while.
Otherwise, with the Divine Spear Bureau constantly watching him, he wouldn't be able to go to the United States and personally capture Tony Stark.
The Mandarin's influence receded once more, and the Divine Spear Bureau's actions were also restrained.
Dealing with such a villain, if pushed too hard, would cause considerable harm to the Chinese people. It was better to let him wreak havoc in other countries.
"These foreigners are ungrateful! Go! Create some small trouble for him. As for our deal with Obadiah, I want it on Tony's desk by tomorrow!" The Mandarin's expression was sinister as he waved his hand, giving orders to his subordinates.
"Yes, my lord," one person immediately retreated to complete the task assigned by their lord.
Tony looked at an email containing details of Obadiah's transactions with the Ten Rings, including the process and even videos.
Tony wasn't a fool. The email was clearly from the Ten Rings, openly identifying themselves.
This proved that Obadiah and the Ten Rings had fallen out and wanted to see him and Obadiah fight each other.
Tony had always been concerned that Obadiah Stane was his uncle, and Stark Industries' current success was inseparable from his efforts over more than a decade.
He had been hesitating whether to pretend he hadn't seen it. Moreover, Obadiah was no ordinary person. He commanded no less resources than Tony.
To completely purge Obadiah's influence from within the company, he had to be fully prepared, which made Tony extremely conflicted.
But now, this email subtly reminded Tony that even the death of the elder Howard Stark was related to Obadiah Stane. This completely enraged Tony.
Tony wasn't foolish enough to confront Obadiah directly. There was no point.
