47: I'm not your father, why should I spoil you?

Her beloved puppy was dead!

Everyone in Jiangzhou City knew Xie Jinyu was hers!

Who on earth had the gall to do this?!

She spun around, her eyes blood-red, scanning frantically through the crowd: "Speak! Who exactly did this?!"

Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling's sudden outburst of a Fourth Realm aura swept through the entire hall like a tsunami.

The solid wood floor of the Night Watch Division instantly cracked, and the bronze lampstand in the corner shattered with a 'clank'.

The Logistics Department personnel below the Third Realm were caught off guard, pressed to one knee by the immense spiritual power, blood spilling from the corners of their mouths.

"Speak!" Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling's voice, imbued with spiritual power, boomed in everyone's ears, "Who killed him."

The entire hall was instantly enveloped in a deathly silence, with only Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling's roar, as if from hell, echoing.

The Logistics Department personnel's faces were pale, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, almost suffocating under the pressure of the Fourth Realm aura.

When Xie Jinyu was suddenly transferred to Jianghai City, there were rumors that he had climbed the ranks by attaching himself to some powerful figure.

Now it seemed the rumors were indeed true.

It was just hard to imagine how Xie Jinyu could stomach such a plump, pig-eared woman...

"None of you are going to speak, are you?" Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling stared intently at Wei Changfeng and the others, her gaze as if she wanted to devour them alive.

Suddenly, her gaze locked onto Lu Ming, who stood calmly at the edge of the crowd.

"You little beast! Was it you?!"

Everyone's eyes instantly focused on Lu Ming; even the Logistics Department personnel still struggling to breathe painfully raised their heads.

"How could it be him? Has this woman lost her mind?"

"Little beast?" Lu Ming's smile faded, and his expression darkened.

Chen Ziliang's heart immediately tightened, and he quickly whispered, "Brother Lu, calm down, that's a Fourth Realm Inspector!"

"That's right, it was me."

Lu Ming pushed Chen Ziliang aside and stared at Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling without fear.

"Don't worry, I was very quick; he didn't suffer at all when he died."

"Oh, and he didn't seem to mention your name before he died. Looks like he didn't like eating pig's head meat."

Everyone else abruptly turned to stare at Lu Ming, a chill running down their spines.

He just admitted it so brazenly!

Didn't he see that woman was about to go crazy? Why would he provoke her further?

Sure enough, Lu Ming's words made Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling completely lose her mind.

"Ah! I'm going to tear you apart!"

Before Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling's roar finished, her figure darted in front of Lu Ming like a ghost.

The long sword in her hand, carrying a biting cold gleam, slashed fiercely towards Lu Ming's neck.

Lu Ming let out a scoff.

No questions asked, no explanations sought, just going straight for the kill at the slightest disagreement.

Who cares what kind of Inspector you are, I'm not your father, why should I indulge you!

If you act like a jerk, you deserve a beating!

The next second, everyone's pupils suddenly constricted.

Lu Ming stood still, not even glancing at Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling.

He just slowly raised his right hand.

The moment Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling's long sword pierced his skin, his palm swung out forcefully.

"Slap!"

A loud slap rang out, without even the roar of spiritual power colliding.

Everyone only saw Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling's movements suddenly freeze, then like a broken-winged flying pig, she arced clumsily through the air, and with a "thud," slammed heavily into the distant wall.

That wall, already riddled with cracks from the previous struggle, immediately collapsed from Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling's impact, sending rubble and dust flying everywhere.

The entire hall was silent, everyone staring at the scene dumbfounded.

A deathly silence.

The entire Night Watch Division building seemed to have been put on pause.

The old hands of the Logistics Department gaped, their earlier discussions now stuck in their throats, their expressions frozen in horror.

"Hahaha, that's hilarious. A Second Realm newcomer suppressed a Fourth Realm Inspector with a mere wave of his hand."

"Has this world gone so crazy that I don't recognize it anymore? Mom, I can't tell, I really can't tell!"

Li Yan's pupils suddenly constricted; he had shattered Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling's spiritual energy with only physical strength!

No wonder Shi Hu fell; he deserved it!

The opponent should be a Fourth Realm Body Cultivator, but when did Jiangcheng Night Watch Division produce such a monster?

He suppressed the turmoil in his heart, stepped forward to help Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling up, and seeing her swollen cheek, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.

This foolish woman couldn't die yet.

She could perfectly distract the attention of the Jiangcheng Night Watchers.

Li Yan suppressed his anger: "Isn't Your Excellency going too far? We are Inspectors dispatched by the central Night Watch Division!"

Ultimately, they didn't know enough about Lu Ming.

If they had investigated beforehand, they would have known.

Lu Ming was exactly the type of person who loved to deal with Inspectors like them.

Just ask Zhang Tao next door; he'd received so many national subsidies for new energy going to the countryside that his hands and feet were soft.

Facing Li Yan's questioning, Lu Ming shrugged: "Oh, and then what? Are you going to show your credentials? I think it's unnecessary; you just standing there is your birth certificate."

Li Yan's face instantly turned a livid, purplish-red.

After Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling regained consciousness, she stared at Lu Ming with a face full of resentment: "Just you wait, you just wait for me!"

Lu Ming flicked away non-existent blood from his fingertips, his gaze as calm as a deep pool of water.

He didn't even look at Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling, just spoke faintly, his voice not loud, but clearly reaching everyone's ears:

"Get lost, you fat pig!"

These words struck everyone's hearts like a heavy hammer.

The Assistant clutched her mouth tightly, afraid she would snort like a pig with laughter.

Well said!

She had disliked this fat old hag for a long time!

Director Zhao's nephew was simply too handsome!

"Where's Director Zhao?" Lu Ming suddenly turned to her and asked.

The Assistant was startled by Lu Ming's sudden question, quickly poking her head out from the corner, her face still showing unconcealed excitement.

She had just been silently cheering for Lu Ming; now, being asked, her cheeks instantly flushed crimson, and she stammered in reply: "Di-Director Zhao... is... is in her office..."

As soon as her voice fell, Zhao Qingge walked down from upstairs, with Wei Changfeng following behind her.

Apparently, Old Wei had taken advantage of the chaos to explain the whole story to her.

"Lu Ming, come with me." Zhao Qingge called softly, her voice not loud, but carrying a strange authority.

Lu Ming turned to look at her, nodding slightly: "Mm."

Zhao Qingge's gaze swept over Lu Ming, then glanced at Li Yan, and finally landed on Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling, tossing over the video Old Wei had provided, and spoke faintly:

"Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling! Xie Jinyu harbored ill intentions and secretly attacked a Jiangcheng Night Watcher; his death was well-deserved. Let's consider today's matter closed."

Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling's face was ashen; she hadn't expected Xie Jinyu to be so careless in his actions. He died, and he even left evidence.

Li Yan knew that Patrol Envoy Wang Lingling was in the wrong first, and he gave Lu Ming a deep look: "Alright, I will report this matter truthfully to the central authority!"
