Chapter 268: Chapter 266: Buried with Him

Sima Lingyun’s voice was filled with anger, somewhat disappointed, as if he was dealing with someone who had failed to meet his expectations. Not acting against Lu Tianxing was not only because of Lu Tianxing’s identity. More importantly, it was due to the Netherworld Mercenary Corps. Within the Netherworld Mercenary Corps, Lu Tianxing’s influence was akin to that of a deity, while the others were like devout followers of the deity. If the deity were to be harmed, the followers would go mad, venting their fury in an uncontrollable frenzy.

If that were all, pure force could totally suppress them, but what Sima Lingyun truly dreaded was Mandala from the Netherworld Mercenary Corps, a master of poison skills whose artistry was divine, and she was a woman at that. A crazed woman is the most terrifying. Should she be provoked, merely unleashing her poison skills in any city and planting lethal toxins could lead to unimaginable consequences.

Jiao Long held the phone, standing dumbfounded on the spot, completely unprepared for the chaos that capturing Lu Tianxing would unleash. Now, hearing Sima Lingyun’s words, he felt a chill around his neck. If the Netherworld Mercenary Corps really sought revenge, unless they neither ate, drank, nor slept, their heads could be plucked off at any moment.

They were Earth-level Peak Martial Artists, but several leaders of the Netherworld Mercenary Corps were Heaven-level Martial Artists. Killing them was as trivial as crushing ants.

"Go release him," Sima Lingyun commanded. "I remind you again, your job is to clean up Modu’s mercenaries and assassins, and quietly monitor the Judge. Don’t touch him; he’s not someone you can handle. This is the first and only time. If it happens again, I’ll personally take action to purge our ranks. Yanhuang Group lacks many things, but never a genius."

Sima Lingyun felt a surge of fury in his heart, while also regretting deeply in his mind. Why had he sent these two fools to Modu? Of all the people to provoke, they had to pick Lu Tianxing.

"Also, warn Broken Blade," he added. "I don’t care how much hatred he harbors or if he got beaten. It was his own fault. If he dares to make a move, show no mercy."

With that, Sima Lingyun ended the call before Jiao Long could respond again.

Clutching his phone, Jiao Long was slow to recover. He had never seen Sima Lingyun so furiously enraged. It was clear to him that Sima Lingyun’s anger had reached its peak. If they continued along this path, he believed that Sima Lingyun would have no qualms about personally purging their ranks.

And Sima Lingyun was right, Yanhuang Group lacked many things, but never geniuses.

"Jiao Long, you’re not really considering releasing him, are you?"

Broken Blade sat next to Jiao Long, having heard every word of Sima Lingyun’s. His pig-headed face was filled with resentment. He had been thoroughly humiliated by Lu Tianxing, and yet he was powerless against him, a fact that was incredibly suffocating.

"What other choice do we have? We underestimated Lu Tianxing’s influence. We thought he was alone and vulnerable in China, but it turned out he had so many supporters. Let him go! This situation is beyond our control."

Jiao Long sighed deeply. He hadn’t anticipated so many complications, from being cornered by the military to being pressured by the business sector. Yanhuang Group had now become a target for many.

"I can’t accept it. He beat me up like this, I can’t accept it,"

Broken Blade clenched his fists, the joints cracking loudly as his face twisted in spite with venomous hate. He wished he could kill Lu Tianxing, tear his body into pieces to avenge today’s humiliation. This was the first time he had ever suffered such a great indignity, being utterly trampled upon.

"Accept it or not, did you not hear the leader’s words? We’ve already caused such a big mess. Yanhuang Group not stripping us of our powers and expelling us is already fortunate enough. What else do you want, to see us get purged completely?"

Jiao Long let out a deep sigh as he glanced at Broken Blade’s resentful face and shook his head. He was not troubled by Sima Lingyun’s words at the moment, but rather by how to whisk Lu Tianxing away from the trial prison tomorrow morning.

It was the first time Jiao Long felt such a headache; inviting the gods in was easy, but sending them off was difficult – how true that saying was.

"I wonder if the chairman of Bai’s Group would work."

An image flashed through Jiao Long’s mind and he silently made a decision.

Zero Point Bar.

Even though it was the peak hour of operation, Zero Point Bar lacked its usual buzz and clamor. Even the whole street had become eerily quiet, carrying a thick, unshakable air of solemnity.

Rose sat in front of the bar counter at Zero Point Bar, dressed in a blood-red cheongsam that accentuated her curvaceous figure enticingly. From afar, Rose seemed like a fierce blaze or a tumultuous pool of fresh blood, strikingly eye-catching. A pistol lay next to her as she quietly savored her wine.

Opposite Rose, dressed in casual attire, Ye Futu sat there with Zhao Shan standing behind him. Surrounding them were several members of the Rose Society, staring indifferently at the Modu Police Department chief, showing not a trace of fear.

With a slight sip of her drink, Rose said calmly, "Director Ye, what brings you here today?"

Rose had little fear of Ye Futu. Although the Rose Society was a criminal organization, there had never been any instances of forcing the good into illegal deeds or drug trafficking on their territory, and Ye Futu couldn’t do anything about her.

"President Rose, we are all wise to this, so let’s not beat around the bush and get straight to the point. This time, what exactly does the Rose Society want? The government acknowledges your existence because it wants to use your influence to stabilize the underworld, not for you to endanger society," said Ye Futu, with a steady gaze and a low voice.

"Really? And what of it!"

Rose’s expression unchanged, she retorted blandly, "My man has been captured by you, and you still ask me what I want? Don’t you blush when you say that, Ye Futu? Do you expect me to clap and cheer on that, or perhaps to set off fireworks to celebrate? Spare me the grand principles. I’m just a simple woman with no grand ambitions; I just want to live a good life with my man. But anyone who dares to lay a finger on my man will pay a painful price."

"And is that price the lives of innocent people?" Ye Futu said, his expression turning unpleasant.

"I can’t worry about all that. When you captured my man, you didn’t think about these consequences."

Rose picked up the pistol from the table and started to meticulously wipe it: "Director Ye, I’m a woman and I dislike grand principles. If anything happens to my man, I assure you, you will regret it for the rest of your lives. I will make all of Modu mourn him and bury him with him."
