Ye Longlin watched the surging crowd rush towards him, a knowing smile appearing on his lips.
Zhao Dahai’s audacity wasn't without reason; he indeed had the backing.
These dozen or so individuals were all war criminals, and moreover, they were all Yuan Xin’s subordinates.
Upon seeing Ye Longlin, Zhao Dahai sneered, "Kid, where's Yuan Gang? Didn't you say last night you'd cover for Yuan Gang? I'd like to see how you'll clean this up now!"
Ye Longlin had employed disguise techniques, so even acquaintances could only recall him as vaguely familiar.
"Come on, try to touch me again!"
Zhao Dahai walked up to him, pulled out a gun, and pressed it against Ye Longlin's head.
Ye Longlin narrowed his eyes, "Are you sure you want to point a gun at me?"
However, the ignorant Zhao Dahai, holding the gun, patted Ye Longlin's face, "You're still pretending, aren't you..."
The next moment, Ye Longlin suddenly grabbed his wrist, twisted it forcefully, causing a wrist fracture, and kicked him in the chest, sending him flying and crashing to the ground.
How could a mere village head possibly possess a gun?
"Go for him!"
Zhao Dahai clutched his chest and roared ferociously.
The group of war criminals also charged forward, but they were not facing ordinary individuals.
Twelve people. Ye Longlin took less than thirty seconds to bring them all down!
"Serial numbers 1701-1712, twelve Class-A war criminals, plus Yuan Xin. You've been hiding pretty well, managing to hide all the way in the countryside. Heh heh."
With a kick, he sent the last war criminal flying, coincidentally smashing into an approaching police car.
Witnessing this, Zhao Dahai deliberately put on an act of being the victim and shouted at Long Cha, "Comrade Long Cha, he has a gun!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the riot police formed a shield wall, their weapons all aimed at Ye Longlin.
"Citizen, please put down your weapon, or we will be forced to act!"
The leading Level-3 Long Cha captain said sternly.
"Who gave you the courage to point a gun at the boss?"
Yuan Gang's voice, like thunder, echoed at that moment.
Everyone turned to look in Yuan Gang's direction. They saw Yuan Gang and Cao Fanghua appearing in the courtyard, walking slowly forward.
Upon seeing this, Level-3 Long Cha Wang Biao gasped, shock flashing in his eyes.
"Three... Three-Star General!"
How could such a dragon emerge from this remote village!
"Put... put down your gun."
Wang Biao took another deep breath and gave the order.
He was the first to lower his gun and approached Yuan Gang, saluting, "Wang Biao, Level-3 Long Cha of the Lingqu County Long Cha Bureau! Greetings, General!"
Zhao Dahai, meanwhile, walked up to Ye Longlin and whispered menacingly, "There will always be times when you're not around. When you're not here, I'll see how I kill her..."
Ye Longlin's eyes narrowed, and a hint of killing intent appeared. He suddenly sidestepped and kicked Zhao Dahai in the mouth, sending him flying and crashing heavily onto an excavator, killing him on the spot!
Yuan Gang glanced over and then quickly walked up to Ye Longlin.
"Yuan Gang, First Legion of the Asura Army, pays respects to the Heavenly King!"
Hearing this, Wang Biao's legs turned to jelly!
His mind went blank.
Heavenly King... That was the Heavenly King... The Great Xia Empire currently had only one Heavenly King, and he was so young!
With the day's events unfolding, the demolition of the houses was also put on hold.
"Continue demolishing. Who told you to stop?"
Ye Longlin's voice rang out. The roar of the excavators resumed, continuing to tear down the rows of small buildings.
"Wang Biao, was it? Explain to me why a village head has a gun? And a Long Cha standard-issue pistol."
Upon hearing this, Wang Biao's body went limp, and he nearly collapsed.
"Reporting to the Heavenly King, I... I don't know... We haven't had any reports of missing firearms."
"Oh."
Ye Longlin's casual "Oh" sent Wang Biao into a frenzy of wild thoughts.
He took out his phone and made a call, saying openly, "Investigate Wang Biao. I need detailed information."
They really weren't treating him as an outsider.
They were calling to check his background right in front of him.
Meanwhile, the villagers were also stunned.
Seeing Wang Biao's respectful demeanor, they realized that Yuan Gang and this young man's identities were absolutely extraordinary. They stopped their futile resistance and could only watch helplessly as their homes were torn down.
Wang Biao was truly at a loss for what to do now. With such a high-ranking figure investigating his background right in front of him, if anything wrong was found, it would be truly disastrous!
"Hea... Heavenly King, I have never done anything to abuse my power. Please investigate fairly!"
He said, tears threatening to fall, wishing he hadn't come today.
Ye Longlin looked at the information in his hand, nodded after three minutes, "Alright, you can go. In the future, diligently investigate whether there are any illegal activities in the villages below. I don't want to see a situation like this again."
Wang Biao nodded and saluted, "Understood!"
He quickly withdrew with his men, mainly due to the overwhelming aura of the other party.
"Wait." Ye Longlin suddenly spoke.
Wang Biao scurried back, smiling obsequiously, "Heavenly King, what are your orders?"
He pointed at the group of war criminals on the ground, "Take them away."
"Understood."
Ye Longlin looked at the villagers before him, a cold smile playing on his lips, "What? Now that there are people more evil than you, you don't dare to act? Weren't you all making a fuss earlier?"
No one spoke. Only pairs of eyes stared at him, wishing they could devour him alive.
However, with Zhao Dahai as a precedent, they dared not provoke him.
Didn't they see that Zhao Dahai was already thoroughly dead!
"Do you have anything else to say?" Ye Longlin looked at Yuan Gang.
Yuan Gang shook his head.
Cao Fanghua watched the scene and sighed heavily, looking towards her home, silently thinking, Old man, you can rest in peace now. Your son has made something of himself.
"Drive, let's go back to Star City."
Ye Longlin tossed him the car keys and helped Cao Fanghua into the car.
At the same time, at the Lin family villa.
Lin Tianai had called Ye Longlin forty to fifty times, all of which went straight to voicemail. She couldn't reach him at all!
"Ye Longlin, if you have the guts, don't come back!"
Lin Langsheng, seeing his daughter's behavior in the living room, gave her a cold glance.
"You didn't like him before, and now that he's ignoring you, you're actively seeking him out."
"Lin Tianai, when will you ever take what I tell you to heart?"
