Chapter 1126: Chapter 1122: Lazier than Ah Fu
"You guys go ahead, I have some matters to handle first," Huang Quanjiu said. Hatred glanced at him but didn’t speak, while Gong Xiao didn’t pay much attention and simply said to the soldier in the driver’s seat, "Drive away."
The military vehicle’s engine erupted in a furious roar, its wheels began to turn, heading back on the road they had come from, growing smaller in Huang Quanjiu’s view.
"General Shang, now that this matter is over, I should go back and report to General Bai."
"Go ahead," Huang Quanjiu motioned with his hand.
As Huang Quanjiu nodded, the sergeant led a neat line of nocturnal soldiers off into the distance, leaving only Wang Dabiao and his group at the scene.
Instinct told Wang Dabiao that staying here any longer might lead to trouble, so he stood up with his group and approached Huang Quanjiu. Bending over respectfully, he said, "General Shang, if there is nothing else, we should head back too. We will report to building 18 tomorrow, at your disposal."
No sooner had Wang Dabiao finished speaking than Huang Quanjiu let out a cold snort, "At my disposal? If you come tomorrow, I’ll kill you!"
His chilling words sent a shudder through Wang Dabiao and his people, but Wang Dabiao quickly realized that Huang Quanjiu was just trying to scare them. Though he spoke of killing, whether or not he would dare to act was the real question. On the other hand, if they allowed themselves to be frightened by Huang Quanjiu’s words and dared not report to building 18 the next day, then they would truly be finished.
Regaining his composure, Wang Dabiao continued with the same deference as before, "If there’s nothing else, General Shang, then we will take our leave."
"Get lost!" Huang Quanjiu cursed irritably, causing Wang Dabiao and the others to hurriedly retreat, feeling inwardly delighted.
Watching their retreating figures, the surrounding Soldiers of the Second Corps approached Huang Quanjiu, and one Level 5 New Human said, "General Shang, should we just let them walk away like this?"
"What do you think we should do?"
The man was confused. They had agreed to spare their lives, but to go back on that and kill them now would seem unjustifiable.
However, with so many from the Second Army Corps dead, it was honestly hard for anyone to stomach just letting these murderers go free.
After a moment of silence, it was clear that Huang Quanjiu was not one for leniency; he and the people of Ruan Dynasty were cut from the same cloth—petty creatures!
It was a case of tit for tat, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
And how could he let this matter simply pass?
Huang Quanjiu’s face grew dark as he watched Wang Dabiao and his men walk farther away, until each of their figures completely vanished from his sight.
"Eighth Army Corps..." He mumbled something under his breath, his face revealing a very cunning smile.
"This matter can pass, but they can take revenge, and so can we for our lost brothers," Huang Quanjiu spoke these words indifferently.
Upon hearing this, the eyes of all the Soldiers of the Second Corps around him shone brightly.
Indeed, they could take revenge! And unlike Wang Dabiao and his group, their vengeance was backed by the support of a general.
"Come here," Huang Quanjiu gestured to a sergeant nearby, summoning him to his side, "Find some suitable people tomorrow. I will handle the materials side of things. Start your revenge plan tomorrow night, the more you can kill, the better!"
"Yes!" The sergeant responded loudly, his eyes filled with excitement as a barely perceptible killing intent emanated from him.
Tomorrow would likely be another perfect night for dark deeds.

Inside the Peace Party Building, Tang Ye looked out the window at the far-off dormitory still emitting thick smoke, a puzzled expression on his face.
He looked left and right, and then he confirmed that the explosion he had heard and the smoke rising indicated that the dormitory had been attacked.
"What’s going on over there?"
At that moment, Gong Xiao walked in, and Tang Ye casually asked.
"It’s nothing, just a group of young guys caused a bit of trouble while avenging their big brother. Quite a few have died."
"How many died?"
"Emm... should be several dozen, I guess?"
"Did you handle it? How did you handle it?"
"How else could I handle it?" Gong Xiao spread her hands, nonchalantly saying, "They seemed quite loyal, so I let them go."
"Okay then," Tang Ye said, shaking his head in resignation. This seemed too frivolous, but it couldn’t be helped. Gong Xiao was not human; she didn’t understand the variability of humans and simply followed suit. The window outside, where fire had blazed and smoke billowed, was finally met with rescue. Soldiers with water hoses doused the flames, the thick smoke swelled one last time, and then the volume of smoke gradually decreased until finally, no thick smoke emitted anymore.
At this point, Tang Ye turned away from the window, but Gong Xiao came to stand where he had been, curiously peering out. After a long stare, she still didn’t understand what was so interesting, so she quickly turned her head back, diverting her gaze to the pile of reports on the table.
"Wow, boss, haven’t you looked at all these reports?" she exclaimed.
"Can’t be bothered. I’ll just dump them all on Xu Haishui later."
"Riiight, you’re even lazier than Ah Fu." Gong Xiao grinned at Tang Ye, her face full of disdain, and then she began to flip through the reports on the table.
While flipping through them, she said, "Boss, do you know that an envoy from Dongsheng Co-management is coming tomorrow?"
"Dongsheng Co-management?" Tang Ye paused when he heard this. Dongsheng Co-management was a superpower, but as time passed, their development seemed to have issues. He knew that currently, Dongsheng Co-management had eleven Level 6 New Humans, with their technology ranking among the top of the superpowers. With their entire Sanctuary Zone’s strength, they were capable of going head-to-head with any superpower, but the chances of winning were slight, almost nonexistent.
However, a superpower that had developed to this point would naturally not let their efforts go to waste; they would definitely do everything to protect their power, so Dongsheng Co-management would not easily offend any other superpower.
But what was the connection between Dongsheng Co-management and the United District, and what were they coming for?
The only connection he could think of was their past purchase of Hunter Battle Suits from the former Mercenary Guild, and it was their Hunter B-class exoskeleton battle suits that allowed the United District to develop the Victorious Exoskeleton Battle Suits.
"What are they doing here?" Tang Ye was puzzled.
"Who knows?"
