90: Chapter 90 You dare arrest Chief Po Jun?

Commander Zhang Biao's body couldn't stop trembling.

He stared at the blood-colored token in Sun Decai's hand, his face turning pale.

Greed for money and power is one thing.

Colluding with demons is quite another.

The hatred between humanity and demons is carved into their bones.

The City Defense Army had issued a death order: anyone who sees a demon must execute it.

Just moments ago, in front of so many people, Sun Decai had been shouting "Lord Blood Demon" with every breath.

The sliver of luck in Commander Zhang Biao's heart shattered in an instant.

He finally understood.

Sun Decai had bribed the City Defense Army to block news and capture rogue cultivators to drain their blood.

Behind all of this, demons were pulling the strings.

As he was thinking this, an overwhelming suppression of blood energy crashed down, making it hard for Commander Zhang Biao to breathe.

This was the absolute power of a Martial King level, or perhaps even stronger!

Thinking of this, his psychological defenses completely collapsed.

With a thud, Commander Zhang Biao's legs went weak, and he knelt on the ground.

He pulled out his City Defense Army officer ID and held it high above his head with both hands.

Then, he crawled on his hands and knees toward Li Zhengyang, kowtowing as he crawled, begging for mercy incessantly.

"My lord, this subordinate was blind! I didn't know your identity, sir; I beg for your forgiveness!"

Commander Zhang Biao kowtowed countless times.

His forehead split open, and blood streamed down the bridge of his nose.

Yet, he dared not stop.

There was only one thought in his mind.

Kowtow, keep kowtowing hard.

Until this lord was satisfied.

Sun Decai was stunned in place, maintaining the posture of holding up the token.

His gaze fell upon Commander Zhang Biao on the ground.

"Commander Zhang Biao, have you lost your mind!" Sun Decai cursed loudly.

"He is just a poor student! A piece of trash who owes me money! Why are you kneeling to him!"

Li Zhengyang walked up to Sun Decai.

He picked up the token and infused blood energy into his fingertips.

The token, forged from mysterious iron, was a high-grade spiritual material; it was wishful thinking for anyone below a Martial King to try and bend it.

Li Zhengyang, using only his finger strength, crushed it into an iron disc.

This pure physical destructive power shattered Commander Zhang Biao's perception.

The mysterious iron emitted the sound of metal twisting and breaking.

The entire token was forcibly squeezed into an iron disc.

Li Zhengyang threw the iron disc in front of Commander Zhang Biao.

"Do you know about the collusion between Starfire Financial Building and the demons?"

Li Zhengyang looked at Commander Zhang Biao, who was kneeling on the ground.

Commander Zhang Biao looked at the deformed iron disc, cold sweat pouring uncontrollably.

"This subordinate will confess! I will tell you everything!"

Commander Zhang Biao raised his head, his voice trembling.

"Half a year ago, Sun Decai made a connection. He spent a large sum of money to bribe two deputy commanders of the City Defense Army and several high-level officials in the Municipal Administration."

"They captured rogue martial artists and failed students under the guise of closed-campus schooling and financial lending."

"The people were sent to have their blood drained. I received a thirty-million bribe to be responsible for blocking outside news and turning a blind eye."

Commander Zhang Biao pointed at Sun Decai nearby.

"I really didn't know his backer was a demon! I thought it was a black-market blood energy trafficker!"

Li Zhengyang withdrew his gaze and reached into his pocket.

He pulled out a black card and threw it onto Commander Zhang Biao's face.

Commander Zhang Biao clearly saw the emblem on the card.

Pojun Division!

His pupils constricted violently, and he gasped.

Sun Decai was rolling on the ground, his gaze sweeping over the card.

His throat felt clogged, unable to make a sound.

In order to expand his business, Sun Decai had once purchased the Great Xia Military's authority chart at a high price.

He recognized this card.

The cardholder was a high-ranking official of the Pojun Division.

A single word could wipe out a defense zone, possessing the power of life and death, with authority to execute first and report later.

Someone with this status would be treated with courtesy even by the stars of the military.

Sun Decai, a loan shark in the East City, had offended such a personage.

He remembered what he had just said.

That he wanted to capture Li Zhengyang's parents to drain their blood.

A foul, fishy smell wafted from his crotch.

Yellow liquid flowed down his pant leg, dripping onto the ground.

"Sir! Grandfather! My mouth is foul! I was talking nonsense!"

Sun Decai used his remaining intact hand to support himself on the ground, kowtowing frantically.

"I didn't know you were an officer of the Pojun Division! Please, just let me go like a fart! I don't want the money anymore! I will offer all my assets to you!"

Li Zhengyang gripped the abyssal meteor dragon spear.

He thrust the spear tip downward.

Pfft.

The spear tip pierced through Sun Decai's arm, burying itself deep into the ground.

"Ah!"

Sun Decai screamed in agony again, his body twitching violently from the pain, blood flowing down the spear shaft.

Li Zhengyang pulled out the dragon spear, and blood splattered.

Sun Decai rolled his eyes in pain.

Li Zhengyang turned to look at Commander Zhang Biao, the dragon spear tapping on the ground.

"Immediately mobilize all reliable forces of the City Defense Army."

Li Zhengyang issued the order.

"Surround the Starfire Financial Building."

"Do not let a single person escape; if they dare to resist, execute them on the spot."

"As for the list of personnel colluding with demons, you arrest them according to it. If one escapes, I will skin you alive."

Commander Zhang Biao immediately picked up his officer ID and responded loudly.

"This subordinate obeys! I will complete the mission, even if it costs me my life!"

Commander Zhang Biao stood up, drew his combat saber, and roared at the soldiers behind him.

"First squad, tie this animal up!"

"Second and third squads, fully armed, get in the vehicles! Target: Starfire Financial Building!"

Once the military order was given, the City Defense Army soldiers on the training ground immediately took action.

Footsteps sounded densely.

Two soldiers ran over, pulled out tactical zip ties, and tightly bound Sun Decai's hands.

Sun Decai was forcibly hauled up, his wound still bleeding continuously.

"Make him walk in front and lead the way."

Li Zhengyang walked out, carrying the dragon spear.

"If he dares to play any tricks, chop him up and feed him to the dogs."

The soldiers escorted Sun Decai to the very front of the formation.

Commander Zhang Biao jumped onto the command vehicle, picked up the communicator, and began to mobilize troops.

The entire communication channel of the East City Defense Army instantly became busy.

Li Zhengyang stood on the steps of the school gate. He looked up toward the direction of the Starfire Financial Building in the city center.

Above the East City center, the usually clear sky suddenly underwent an anomaly.

A dark red stream of light tore an opening in the clouds.

The stream of light presented a glaring blood color, striking straight toward the location of the Starfire Financial Building.

The clouds rolled violently under the impact of the stream of light.

The thick black clouds scattered in all directions.

A massive and extremely chaotic spatial energy fluctuation spread in all directions along the trajectory of the falling light.

This fluctuation directly interfered with the distribution of spiritual energy in the surrounding area.

The City Defense Army soldiers on the training ground covered their ears one after another.

The surrounding buildings emitted a vibrating humming sound.

This was the precursor to the opening of a high-intensity spatial channel.

Li Zhengyang looked at the blood-colored beam of light and tightened his grip on the abyssal meteor dragon spear.

"Move out!"

Li Zhengyang shouted in a low voice.

The armored vehicle convoy roared out of the school gate, heading straight for the city center.
