Chapter 244: Chapter 243: Yanhuang Group is Taking Action
While Bai Zhiqing and Lu Tianxing were playfully teasing each other, at the Modu Police Station, Ye Futu sat on a chair, smoking a cigarette with an extremely ugly expression on his face. On his desk in front of him lay a blood-red, sinister invitation.
Xue Bing and Zhao Shan stood in front of the desk, not saying a word, filling the office with a suffocating atmosphere.
"Damn bastards, what the hell do they want to do? Do they really want to turn Modu into a river of blood? Damn it, damn it, it’s infuriating."
Ye Futu violently threw away the cigarette in his hand, stood up, and cursed loudly while slamming the table, his eyes filled with a frustrated and frantic look.
As the director of the Modu Police Station, he knew far more than Xue Bing did about what the Judge’s Mark represented.
A single Judge’s Mark could lead to a massacre across the land; its appearance often signified rivers of blood.
More importantly, the appearance of the Judge’s Mark in Modu meant that people from the Netherworld Mercenary Corps had also arrived in Modu.
About the Netherworld Mercenary Corps, Ye Futu didn’t know much, but it was not too little either.
The Netherworld Mercenary Corps was one of the top forces in the underworld, universally acknowledged as the number one mercenary group, with extremely formidable strength. The number of people in the Netherworld Mercenary Corps was not large, only a mere few hundred in scale.
But as the saying goes, the quality of troops is more important than the quantity. The Netherworld Mercenary Corps may not have many members, but its combat capability is absolutely not to be underestimated. Others may not be fear-inspiring, but the combat abilities of the several leaders of the Netherworld Mercenary Corps are terrifyingly strong, considered top-notch experts. And the only ones who could use the Judge’s Mark, apart from the leader of the Netherworld Mercenary Corps, the Judge, were those leaders.
Now that the Judge’s Mark had appeared in Modu, there was only one explanation: one of the leaders of the Netherworld Mercenary Corps had come to Modu, and moreover, they were protecting Bai Zhiqing. In other words, the appearance of the Judge’s Mark was a declaration of war against those assassins and mercenaries in Modu. If they did not back down, they would be wiped out completely, and the battlefield would definitely be in Modu.
Thinking about all this, Ye Futu felt a headache coming on. According to rumors, the least powerful among the leaders of the Netherworld Mercenary Corps were Heaven-level Martial Artists. If such Heaven-level Martial Artists turned Modu into their battlefield, the resulting devastation could only be imagined, creating a disaster not unlike a natural calamity for ordinary people.
"Right, Director, I just remembered something. When we received this invitation, Bai Zhiqing’s assistant, Lu Tianxing, said something. It seemed like he mentioned ’Fu Tu’?" Zhao Shan suddenly spoke up from the side.
"Zhao Shan, what did you say, ’Fu Tu’?"
Ye Futu couldn’t maintain his composure any longer, his face filled with disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost. In the police department’s archives, one piece of information was recorded—Fu Tu, one of the leaders of the Netherworld Mercenary Corps, a Heaven-level Martial Artist with divine knife skills and the ability to slice through water, was an enemy one must not provoke.
"Zhao Shan, are you certain you didn’t hear wrong?" Ye Futu took a deep breath and asked urgently.
Zhao Shan had never seen Ye Futu in such a state of disarray and stuttered, "I... I didn’t hear it very clearly. I vaguely remember him mentioning those two words, but whether it is indeed ’Fu Tu’ I’m not sure."
"Director, Zhao Shan didn’t make a mistake. I heard it too, it was definitely ’Fu Tu.’ Director, what should we do next? Should we send someone to detain Lu Tianxing first and get something out of him?" Xue Bing suggested from the side.
"No, don’t act rashly."
Ye Futu flatly rejected Xue Bing’s suggestion without a second thought. The Netherworld Mercenary Corps was a group particularly protective of their own, known for their principle of an eye for an eye, and their belief in not troubling others unless troubled first.
If Lu Tianxing knew someone from the Netherworld Mercenary Corps and had one of their leaders protect Bai Zhiqing, it indicated that Lu Tianxing’s status within the Netherworld Mercenary Corps was definitely strong. To rashly provoke them could lead to unimaginable consequences.
"Director, why?"
Xue Bing’s face was full of unwillingness; she had suspected that there was something off about Lu Tianxing for a while now, and was certain that apprehending him for interrogation would reveal more.
"If Lu Tianxing truly knows the host of this invitation and is connected to him, we definitely cannot touch him lightly. This is not something we can get involved in. I will report this to the higher-ups to handle," Ye Futu said slowly, taking a deep breath.
"The urgent task at hand is to investigate why this group of assassins has shown up in Modu. If they could carry weapons openly, it must be because someone is backing them in the shadows. No matter what, we need to root out this infestation and bring them to justice. I don’t want the citizens of Modu to mock the Modu Police Station’s inaction by wearing bulletproof vests and helmets every time they go out. Do you understand?"
"We don’t understand. You cops are really regressing. Since you’re too scared to act, why not hand him over to us? I’ve been eager to see for myself what makes the Netherworld Mercenary Corps think they’re on the same level as us."
Just then, a mocking voice came from outside.
As the voice sounded, the door was pushed open directly, and two figures, Broken Blade and Jiao Long, walked in. Jiao Long’s expression was calm, his demeanor nonchalant, while Broken Blade wore a mocking sneer of arrogance.
Seeing the two barge in, Ye Futu furrowed his brows and said solemnly, "Gentlemen, I’m aware of who you are, but I think you should know what Lu Tianxing’s identity is. If you act recklessly and something happens, you won’t be able to take responsibility for it."
"You needn’t worry yourself about that, Director Ye. We have our own plans. A mere Netherworld Mercenary Corps doesn’t deserve our concern," said Broken Blade, unconcerned.
Recently, they had been covertly investigating Lu Tianxing and discovered that he behaved like any ordinary person, which greatly reduced the pressure he posed in their minds. So what if he were a Judge? He was nothing but a figurehead, and if the leader himself was just for show, one could only imagine the caliber of the rest of the Netherworld Mercenary Corps members.
To Broken Blade, Lu Tianxing was but trash, at best a so-called strong man hyped up by others, with no right to be compared with the leader of the Yanhuang Group, Sima Lingyun. This time, he was determined to show everyone that the Judge was nothing special.
"Director Ye, please cooperate with our operations. Although we don’t interfere with police matters, we’d also like you not to interfere with those of the Yanhuang Group. If anything happens, we will take full responsibility," Jiao Long spoke lightly.
Both of them were geniuses of the Yanhuang Group with exceptional talents, destined for legendary status above even the Heavenly Level if they survived. In their view, what did Lu Tianxing count for? To the Yanhuang Group, he was nothing but a bumpkin, hardly a threat.
"What do you mean by that? Do you think we’re afraid of death?" Xue Bing said indignantly, her expression sour.
