This guy was really angry. Guan Ya, who was holding the rifle, keenly noticed the change in Ling Jun's expression.
Among the Four Young Masters, Young Master Hua was the most compassionate and cherished women. When he was young, he read "Dream of the Red Chamber" and regarded Jia Baoyu as his idol, vowing to be a man like Baoyu. He even imitated Baoyu's way of speaking, repeating the phrase "Girls are made of water and flesh, men are made of mud and flesh" as his mantra.
Not only that, when he was young, he visited the Fu family with his grandfather, the elder of the Hundred Flowers Society, and fell in love with Guan Ya in her youth at first sight, saying in surprise, "My Lin Daiyu has arrived."
Then Guan Ya punched out his front tooth.
"Turns out she's a Rong Momo," Ling Jun pulled back from the brink, abandoned darkness and turned to the light, and when he saw the little witch, he said in surprise, "Turns out my Xue Baochai is here."
His other front tooth was also knocked out.
From then on, Ling Jun harbored a lifelong grudge against the women of the Fu family.
In short, in the eyes of this contemporary Jia Baoyu, Chi Yue'an's various atrocities severely challenged his values and violated his bottom line.
While Ling Jun and his group were enraged by Chi Yue'an's actions, Kou Beiyue, who was half-conscious, had only one sentence echoing in his mind: "Are you the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning?"
He wasn't Yuan Ting, he was the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning, the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning who killed Li Xianzong, the official extraordinaire that the genius Xiao Yuan, who rose like a comet in the Songhai branch, knew. It was actually him!
Kou Beiyue was shocked, but he also found it reasonable. Xiao Yuan had high standards, and a mediocre person with a gentle nature could at most gain her goodwill, but it was difficult to become a friend.
Wait, how did he brag about the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning before? No wonder he had to brag about the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning. How could Xiao Yuan be friends with such a shameless person?
Confused, fragmented thoughts flashed through Kou Beiyue's mind. He could only indulge in wild thoughts. Chi Yue'an's fist just now had injured his internal organs, and he was probably bleeding heavily. The physique of a Bewitching Demon wouldn't die easily, but it didn't have the exaggerated self-healing ability of a Night Wanderer.
Faced with the accusations, Chi Yue'an stood proudly and sneered:
"Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning, you're not an executive yet. Do you know what the crime is for framing an executive? Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you've made an A-level achievement. That little bit of achievement is nothing in the eyes of people with truly deep foundations."
Zhang Yuanqing spat out a mouthful of blood and returned a cold glare:"At least for you, you softie, an A-level achievement is very useful. Ling Jun, that guy is a tool person supported by Chi Yue'an and has evidence of his bribery of officials at all levels in his hands." He looked at Wu Ye, who was lying unconscious against the wall.
"Okay!" Ling Jun nodded with a heavy expression and walked towards Wu Ye.
Chi Yue'an's pupils shrank. On the surface of his white suit, there was a faint red glow, brewing.
Scarlet thin gloves emitted a high temperature that distorted the air, and flames were about to burst forth.
Seeing that the two were about to fight, a chaotic and hurried sound of footsteps came from outside the hall. Ling Jun stopped and looked sideways. The dark red on Chi Yue'an's body surface subsided, and the high temperature of the gloves dissipated.
The three members of Team Two looked towards the open entrance of the hall, where a group of uniformed security guards poured in. They were holding riot shields and guns, wearing anti-theft vests and helmets, fully armed. The middle-aged man who was not holding a shield was surrounded by the security guards. This man was slightly overweight, with flesh drooping slightly on both sides of his cheeks, and he was burly, showing that he was a strong man in his youth. "Everyone, put your hands on your heads and squat down," the middle-aged man roared.
Seeing the security guards with live ammunition, Chi Yue'an was slightly taken aback. He had originally thought that the team of The Way of the Extraordinary under his command had arrived.
After receiving the notification, he sent messages to the captains under his command and then rushed to support them first. Judging by the time, those guys should have arrived. Unexpectedly, the first to arrive were his colleagues from the Shakou District Public Security Bureau.
"Director Lu, why are you here?" Chi Yue'an said in a steady voice.
Director Lu? The deputy director who instructed Kong Liangping to forge evidence and protect Chi Yue'an? Zhang Yuanqing raised an eyebrow. Kou Beiyue, who was seriously injured and lying on the ground, began to breathe rapidly.
"I received a report from the public saying that lawless people broke into a private residence and maliciously killed people," said Director Lu, wearing a bulletproof vest and a bulletproof helmet, with a serious expression. Chi Yue'an nodded slightly, pointing to Ling Jun and the others:
"It's them!
"This group of people is of unknown origin, committing murder and extremely dangerous. Director Lu, you must be careful." Director Lu understood the hint, maintained a dignified posture, and said loudly:
"You four, put your hands on your heads and squat down, warning once."
Then, he spoke almost without interruption, not giving anyone a way out: "Warning twice, warning three times, fire!"
The surrounding security guards turned a blind eye to the superior's illegal orders and unconditionally obeyed. They immediately raised their guns, and more than a dozen people with more than a dozen guns fired at the same time, pouring down a rain of bullets on the four. Zhang Yuanqing felt a chill in his heart. Such a dense rain of bullets could directly threaten him.
The worst thing was that Chi Yue'an and the director of the Shakou District Public Security Bureau were in cahoots, clearly trying to use these ordinary security guards to create trouble and crisis for them. Killing security guards would change the nature of the situation, and moral points would have to be deducted.
"Crack!" The bricks under Ling Jun's feet broke open, and a vine decorated with green leaves emerged from the ground, forming itself into a round shield with a diameter of three meters. Bang bang bang!
All the bullets hit the hard wooden shield, either bouncing off or embedding themselves in it.
Ling Jun snapped his fingers, and with the sound of the snap, the floor tiles under the feet of the security guards cracked, and roots of gnarled vines emerged from the ground, growing wildly. The security guards with live ammunition were thrown off their feet, unable to stand steady.
The arm-thick vines either whipped or chopped, making cracking sounds, and in an instant, they knocked more than a dozen security guards to the ground with muffled groans.
Director Lu retreated repeatedly, suddenly feeling a pain in his back, and looked down in horror, seeing a vine drilling out of his abdomen, stained with blood. He screamed in pain.
The other security guards were no better off, their bones were broken and their tendons were fractured by the vines, and they were in so much pain that they couldn't even scream. "You dare to hurt the director of public security, dare to hurt the security guards?"
Chi Yue'an, who was watching with cold eyes, raised an eyebrow and sneered, "Young man, impulsiveness comes at a price."
"Security guards or directors, whoever is noisy when I'm not happy, I'll kill you." Ling Jun, who wasn't smiling, exuded gloom all over his body. He walked slowly towards Chi Yue'an and said coldly, "Chi Yue'an, I've seen many people who are more cruel and vicious than you, but not many can make me angry."
As he spoke, Ling Jun's body suddenly swelled, his loose short sleeves ripped open, and dense, mottled black and yellow fur grew on his exposed arms and cheeks. His palms widened and thickened, and sharp black claws popped out. His flip-flops shattered, and his feet turned into the hind paws of a tiger.
His nose widened, and his brown pupils contracted, turning into a pair of amber-colored fierce pupils, and the black hair on his forehead formed a "king" pattern. In two or three steps, he transformed into a bipedal, two-meter-tall giant tiger.
The humanoid giant tiger slowly fell forward, its front limbs touching the ground, and a deep, majestic roar rumbled in its throat as it pounced on Chi Yue'an. "Beast King?"
Chi Yue'an didn't panic. They were all Saints, and the gap wouldn't be too big. The scarlet thin gloves spewed flames, forming a bright yellow long whip. "Pa!"
Chi Yue'an swung his arm, whipping at the onrushing tiger.
The tiger, running at high speed, bounced to the left, and the long whip missed, leaving a deep crack in the ground. "Pa pa pa!"
Chi Yue'an vigorously swung his arm, unleashing one fierce attack after another.
But the mottled tiger dodged left and right, agilely avoiding the strikes, and rushed to Chi Yue'an, pouncing fiercely. Deng deng deng, Chi Yue'an retreated several steps, retracting the long whip, turning it into a straight sword.
Then, heat waves erupted from Chi Yue'an's body, and his aura rose layer by layer. Unleashing "Berserker," he paused and stopped retreating. His leg muscles swelled, propelling his body like a cannonball towards the oncoming tiger.
He knew that the opponent was the Beast King, possessing powerful recovery abilities, but Chi Yue'an wasn't afraid of exchanging blows. In terms of healing power, the Sweet Dew inner armor was enough to match the Beast King, and the burning attribute of the Crimson Flame Divine Weapon could suppress the Beast King's recovery. Exchanging injuries was a favorable trade for him.
Suddenly, the mottled giant tiger in front of him twisted its body like a boneless fish, and stretched continuously. The next moment, the mottled giant tiger transformed into a black-scaled giant snake as thick as a bucket.
Zzzzz, the straight sword that should have pierced the tiger's heart grazed its scales, creating charred wounds. The giant snake's head flicked, its fangs bared, and it bit Chi Yue'an's neck.
Terrible! Chi Yue'an had never seen a Beast King transform so quickly. Caught off guard, he was about to self-destruct to force back the giant snake. However, a strong sense of fatigue suddenly surged in his body. His hands, which could tear apart tigers and leopards, were powerless, and his knees weakened, causing him to fall to the ground.
He was poisoned.
The giant snake's fangs contained terrifying toxins, injected into his bloodstream through the bite, paralyzing his body. "Heh heh," Chi Yue'an's eyes widened, and he let out an unwilling roar in his throat.
The giant snake released its mouth, stood upright, its scales retreated into its body, and legs and feet grew, returning to human form. His private parts were covered by thick long hair. "The gap between Saints is very large."
Ling Jun mocked and looked back at Li Dongze, saying, "Take that damned bastard to get the evidence." Li Dongze nodded and picked up the unconscious Wu Ye.
Ling Jun then looked at Zhang Yuanqing, squinting and saying, "I'll stand up for you in this case, but you should think carefully about how to explain your association with evil professions to the elders." This trash is so strong! Zhang Yuanqing was still in shock.
A Level 4 Saint with full experience was incredibly weak in front of him. Moreover, it was clear that Ling Jun hadn't used his full strength.
At this moment, hurried footsteps came again, and seven or eight The Way of the Extraordinary, holding firearms, swarmed into the hall.
Seeing the chaotic scene and Chi Yue'an, who was slumped on the ground, these official extraordinaires suddenly stopped, looking at each other.
Chi Yue'an struggled to raise his head, and when no one was paying attention to him, he moved his lips towards his subordinates who had arrived, mouthing a sentence: "Save me, otherwise, I'll reveal everything you've done."
Dawn, pet store.
A curly-haired teddy bear jumped onto the wooden table, and the potted plant on the table stretched out its tender green whiskers, consciously turning on the laptop, powering it up, entering the password, and logging into the voice conferencing software. The curly-haired teddy bear waited silently for more than ten minutes until the meeting time began.
In the meeting room, four avatars came online one after another.
Elder Gou coughed steadily, giving the opening remarks: "You've all seen the video evidence, right? Lao Huo, Chi Yue'an is your subordinate, how to deal with him, you decide."
The elder with the avatar of a fire deity said in a muffled voice, "According to the gang rules, according to the alliance rules, he must die. My opinion is, execute him on the spot. If it's inconvenient for you to do it, return him to me, and I'll deal with him personally." There were dozens of videos, including rape, gang rape, and abuse. Regardless of other criminal evidence, these alone were enough to sentence Chi Yue'an to death.
"Is it enough to just sentence him to death?" The female elder with the avatar of a river snorted:
"I've reviewed Chi Yue'an's general physical examination data. He has extremely strong hatred of women and violent tendencies. How did you manage to turn a blind eye to such a psychological assessment? You should have investigated him long ago. As an elder, you also have a responsibility."
"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Elder Chi Huo Bang said angrily.
For Fire Masters, discrimination against women and violent tendencies are normal. As long as the mentality is not completely distorted, there is no need for key observation. "Perhaps, I can also teach you how to be a person," the female elder of Shui Shen Gong said in a somber tone.
The Zhong Ting elder stepped forward to smooth things over, saying:
"The video evidence must be submitted to Jingcheng. I wonder how the involved officials in Shakou District will handle it." Elder Chi Huo Bang sneered:
"Those without a background will be beaten to death with Sun Dasheng's iron rod. Those with a background will just have their mounts taken back. We don't need to manage officialdom matters. Let's talk about the Bronze Sparrow Tower case." Elder Gou said:
"The first thing, Chi Yue'an supported organized crime, and over the years, he amassed more than two billion in wealth, but we have not tracked down the whereabouts of the赃款."
"Are you saying that there is someone behind Chi Yue'an?" The elder of Bai Hu Bing Zhong said, weighing his words.
"Just a guess," Elder Gou chuckled. "He used to be Zhu Family's son-in-law."
"Kill him and ask the spirits," Elder Chi Huo Bang said directly.
"Foolish, the execution of an executive requires headquarters approval, and headquarters review and investigation take time," the female elder of Shui Shen Gong mocked. Water and fire are incompatible, the two elders argued as soon as they met, and fought as soon as they met.
Elder Gou said:
"Second, several extraordinaires teams in Shakou District and Chi Yue'an accused the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning of colluding with evil professions and harming colleagues. Ling Jun and the Second Team of Kangyang District admitted that there was a Bewitching Demon present at the time." Elder Chi Huo Bang said in a deep voice:
"I have checked the surveillance at the scene of the Bronze Sparrow Tower, and the situation is true. What explanation does he have for this?"
Elder Gou said:
"The explanation given by the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning is—to punish evil and promote good."
"Punish evil and promote good," the female elder of Shui Shen Gong repeated in a low voice. Elder Chi Huo Bang snorted coldly:
"Perfunctory! No matter what the purpose, associating with the bloodthirsty Bewitching Demon is a stain that he can never wash away. According to the alliance rules, secretly associating with evil professions is punishable by expulsion from the Five Elements Alliance, or imprisonment, or death." "Considering that he revealed Chi Yue'an's crimes and made contributions, and also has an A-level achievement, I think he should be given a major demerit and imprisoned for half a year."
The elder of Bai Hu Bing Zhong immediately said, "I object!"
A major demerit would affect the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning's promotion. The Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning is a member of Bai Hu Bing Zhong, and he cannot agree. Elder Gou said:
"Let me explain here, the sister of that Bewitching Demon was one of the victims of the Bronze Sparrow Tower, and was killed by Chi Yue'an two years ago. He became a Bewitching Demon because of this. This person has been taken into custody by Fu Qingyang and interrogated. He has not killed any ordinary people."
Hearing this, the female elder of Shui Shen Gong, who was originally hesitant, immediately expressed her opinion: "I also object."
Elder Chi Huo Bang and the Zhong Ting elder did not express their opinions, nor did they let go.
The Five Elements Alliance has always been ruthless towards members who collude with outsiders. The agents of Dark Night Rose are killed without hesitation. A major demerit and imprisonment for half a year are already very lenient.
At this time, the elder of Bai Hu Bing Zhong said: "Fu Qingyang has contacted me and hopes to connect with us." The meeting room was silent for a moment, and Elder Gou said:
"Let him in."
The other three elders did not object.
A dozen seconds later, Fu Qingyang's avatar appeared in the meeting room. Unlike the other elders who used profession-related elements as avatars, Fu Qingyang's avatar for all chat software was himself. "Elders, the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning is my man. Regarding his disposal, I have something to say."
Fu Qingyang's voice was neither humble nor arrogant, his pronunciation was standard, and his words were sonorous. "Are you going to plead for him?" The Zhong Ting elder spoke.
"I will not plead for anyone, I will only state the facts," Fu Qingyang said in a calm tone.
The Fu family's young master's respect for the elders has always been superficial. After all, even the female marshal is trash in his eyes, and everyone present is definitely trash. "First of all, I want to report on the psychological assessment of the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning—a philosophical idealist; he isn't recommended to be given too important of a position at this stage.
"By understanding this person, we can find a reasonable logic in his behavior. That Bewitching Demon is called Kou Beiyue. Two years ago, his sister disappeared for no reason and was later killed. He became an extraordinaire because of this.
"This person's nature is still not bad. He has not killed innocent people, and is even more lawful than many orderly professions. Therefore, the philosophical idealist Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning has an intersection with him. Therefore, the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning will take action to help, leading to tonight's Bronze Sparrow Tower incident.
"In law, he is wrong. In emotion and reason, I don't think he is wrong."
The Zhong Ting elder sighed: "For law enforcers, philosophical idealism is not a good thing."
Fu Qingyang said lightly: "Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, let's not discuss it for now. At least he is a good person. The elders don't object, right?" The five elders did not speak, which was considered tacit consent.
Fu Qingyang spoke eloquently:
"There is no problem with the composition of the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning. Next, let's talk about the handling of this matter. It's impossible to cover it up at this point. We must issue an announcement and explain to various branches and headquarters."
"Chi Yue'an's actions have damaged the image of the Five Elements Alliance, both internally and externally. Therefore, we need to downplay the seriousness of the matter and set an example. Elders, you don't want to be held accountable by headquarters, right?"
The Shui Shen Gong elder smiled, "Continue."
Fu Qingyang continued:
"We can characterize Chi Yue'an as a member of Dark Night Rose, lurking in the Five Elements Alliance, doing evil and extorting money. All of this is the fault of Dark Night Rose. What does it have to do with our Songhai Branch? We are also victims." "The general physical examination has just ended. The Five Elements Alliance is no stranger to the erosion of Dark Night Rose. It is completely acceptable. But if it is just like this, it still cannot convince everyone, and the blame for negligence is inevitable.
"Therefore, we need to guide public opinion."
Elder Gou pondered for a moment, "Guiding public opinion is a good idea. Talk about your thoughts."
"Following the general physical examination, the Songhai Branch launched a thunderous attack, dispatching the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning to investigate the executives. As expected, they uncovered a member of Dark Night Rose. The Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning single-handedly took risks, collected evidence, and after several life-and-death experiences, cooperated with the Kangyang District Spirit Realm Team to destroy the bandit's nest and capture the traitor." Fu Qingyang finished speaking in one breath, and said in a serious manner:
"Bad things have turned into good things. What do the elders think?"
As for the disposal of the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning, isn't punishing a hero like slapping yourself in the face? The meeting room suddenly fell silent.
After a moment, Elder Gou shook his head slightly: "Inappropriate!" Fu Qingyang raised an eyebrow, "What's inappropriate?"
Elder Gou: "The title is too long."
The other elders remained silent.
Fu Qingyang understood: "I will order someone to rewrite the title now, and it will be posted on the forum at dawn." Eight o'clock in the morning.
The Songhai Branch posted a post on the forum:
#Dark Night Rose is too deceptive, the Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning single-handedly destroys the traitor's nest#
ps: Wrong words, update later.
