Dong Wen's tone remained arrogant, and everyone present was deeply shocked by his strength.
Just what kind of monster was this guy!
He looked about the same age as Chen Peiyue, yet his strength had utterly crushed them, a bunch of seasoned veterans!
Chen Peiyue stared intently at him. Before this, she had always thought her talent was quite good; even if she wasn't the absolute best among her peers, she was at least a genius.
But now, all she felt was profound helplessness.
Chen Pao and the others immediately rushed forward to shield Du Tian, not for protection, but to quickly form an offensive and defensive formation.
Dong Wen only sneered at their actions, and Yuan Bei, who had remained stationary, was expressionless.
"Are you alright?"
Chen Pao asked with concern, but Du Tian did not reply.
Just then, Qi Jing's figure also rushed back, holding two people in his hands.
"Yes, President Zhou!"
Eagle Eye's exclamation once again tightened everyone's hearts. What shocked them even more was that the other person Qi Jing was holding was Hai Yan!
Who was Qi Jing? Even the monstrous Dong Wen called him master. Zhou Tong and Hai Yan were completely powerless in his hands. The latter tossed them aside like garbage, throwing them carelessly onto the ground.
Hai Yan was merely a weak woman, and she let out a muffled groan, nearly passing out. Zhou Tong quickly crawled to Hai Yan's side, anxiously asking, "Xiao Yan, are you alright?"
Hai Yan suppressed her unease and pain, shaking her head, "I'm fine."
At this moment, the two were less than ten meters away from Chen Pao and his group. Chen Pao instinctively wanted to rush over and bring them back, but Qi Jing flashed forward, and Chen Pao was once again sent flying backward.
Puff!
A large mouthful of blood sprayed from his mouth. Rou Shan was quick and caught him.
"Captain!"
The others finally reacted, their gazes turning angry towards Qi Jing.
"The weak should have the awareness of the weak. Did I tell you to move?"
Qi Jing coldly snorted, then turned to look at Yuan Bei, "Brother Bei, this company is as the report indicated, full of martial practitioners, so many at such a small company."
Yuan Bei nodded, "Then we'll proceed according to the rules. Take all relevant personnel back."
The three stood on one side, and Chen Pao and his group stood on the other, separated by less than ten meters, but their conversation was as if they were the true masters here. In a few words, they had convicted Chen Pao and his colleagues!
At this moment, Zhou Tong suddenly spoke, "Wait a moment, esteemed sirs, is there some misunderstanding? We are a legitimate company. Even if there's a report of a problem, shouldn't people from the Market Supervision Bureau come?"
Yuan Bei calmly said, "Are you the boss here?"
Zhou Tong shook his head.
"Then you are not qualified to know. Take them away."
As Yuan Bei was about to turn, Zhou Tong quickly stood up, shielding Hai Yan, "Aren't you too lawless? This is Shangjing. Even if there's a crime to arrest people, shouldn't people from the General Bureau come?"
In fact, Zhou Tong knew that reasoning with these people was futile. After all, their strength surpassed his side, and even Du Tian, who was the hidden strength, was now standing aside, clutching his chest.
He was clearly not lightly injured.
However, the words of the three also gave Zhou Tong a glimmer of hope. At least they didn't intend to kill anyone at the moment!
Yuan Bei and the other two were all wearing white robes, clearly indicating they belonged to some organization. But Zhou Tong searched his memory and couldn't find the words "Ping Min Hui," nor anything related to it!
That was why he wanted to use the General Bureau to stall for time, as Li Chonglou had said he needed at most thirty minutes!
No matter how strong the enemy, Zhou Tong believed that as long as Li Chonglou returned, all problems would be solved!
Yuan Bei said calmly, "It seems you only know of the General Bureau. Let me tell you this, when we from the Ping Min Hui act, even the General Bureau has to step aside."
Upon hearing this, everyone was instantly shocked.
Even the General Bureau couldn't compare to them?
It was now nearly evening, and a cool breeze began to blow. The three figures in white stood there like three giant beasts, suppressing everyone so much that they dared not even breathe.
Zhou Tong hadn't expected that there would be an existence in Shangjing that even the General Bureau dared not offend, and for a moment, he didn't know how to respond.
It was the young man, Dong Wen, who suddenly spoke, "Brother Bei, their boss hasn't returned yet. Why don't we wait a bit, so we don't have to make another trip?"
Yuan Bei thought for a moment and looked at Zhou Tong again, "Hearing them call you boss, you must be the second-in-command here. When will your boss return?"
Zhou Tong's heart instantly relaxed, and he quickly said, "Soon, our boss is rushing back, in about fifteen minutes at most."
Yuan Bei suddenly raised his hand. Zhou Tong then noticed that he was wearing a white watch on his right wrist. Strangely, this watch was not of ordinary style but bore a triangular symbol he had never seen before.
"Then we'll wait fifteen minutes for you. If the person hasn't returned in fifteen minutes, don't blame me for being impolite."
Although he didn't feel any inner force aura from Yuan Bei, when he spoke these words, everyone felt an unprecedented pressure.
Chen Pao quietly asked Du Tian beside him, "Old man Du, you've seen a lot. Do you know what this Ping Min Hui is?"
Du Tian replied with a grim expression, "I've lived in seclusion for most of my life, how would I know these things."
At this moment, Eagle Eye also walked over, "Captain, can we really only wait here?"
His expression was filled with unwillingness. He hadn't played any role among the few. Ever since Li Chonglou gave him a new weapon, he hadn't had a chance to test it.
Chen Pao shook his head, "Don't act rashly. President Zhou only stepped out to stall for time. We are no match for the strength of these two."
Alas.
The four sighed almost simultaneously. None of them expected that the first guarding mission would fail so miserably.
Just then, a familiar aura suddenly appeared in their senses.
What is this?
Chen Pao subconsciously turned his head, and saw that not far behind the three, a small white figure had appeared at some point.
Eagle Eye's eyes lit up, and he quietly reminded, "Isn't that the boss's pet?"
Just then, Dong Wen suddenly walked towards them.
The attention of the four was immediately drawn back, and they simultaneously noticed that Dong Wen's gaze was fixed on Xiao Yue!
Qi Jing and Yuan Bei also noticed Dong Wen's unusual behavior, but after seeing Chen Peiyue's figure, they both revealed expressions of understanding.
Qi Jing chuckled, "This kid is indeed a good prospect."
Yuan Bei calmly said, "Tell Xiao Wen not to get too carried away. We are here on a mission after all."
Qi Jing smiled and said, "Don't worry, Brother Bei, Xiao Wen knows what he's doing."
