Lin Family: Zhuge Tianming, give an explanation!

The beautiful waitress's eyes darted around, half-believing, half-doubting.

"Is...is that so?"

"Yes! Now, serve the dishes!"

After Li Xunle finished speaking, he pulled out his staff, waved it, and a fist-sized red flame landed on Zhao Hao.

Then...

Zhao Hao's body seemed to burst into flames.

Seeing this, the beautiful waitress's face completely fell.

She suppressed the fear in her heart, served the dishes, and cast a sidelong glance at Zhao Hao.

Her hands were trembling slightly.

At this moment...

She was extremely terrified, constantly guessing in her mind:

Did he commit murder?

And now he's destroying the evidence? Cremating the body?

The more she thought about it, the more scared she became, worried that she would be killed by him and then also burned to ashes.

So...

Her movements became even faster.

After quickly serving all the dishes, she ran out in a panic.

At this time, Zhao Hao's first words after waking up were:

"Big Brother, did I die again, again, and again?"

"You should say, you came back to life again, again, and again."

"...Big Brother, can you give me a heads-up next time?"

"I did give you a heads-up, but you didn't listen!"

...Zhao Hao was speechless.

He went to see King of Hell at the drop of a hat.

He was practically becoming relatives with him... What the heck!

However...

Fortunately, he didn't feel any discomfort in his body... and there was no pain.

Li Xunle started eating on his own.

Zhao Hao, not to be outdone, immediately began to gorge himself.

Finally...

Li Xunle looked at the bowl of beef noodles in front of him and called the waitress over.

"What does this mean?"

The waitress replied, "It's our most distinctive beef noodle."

"I don't eat beef!"

Li Xunle finished speaking angrily, then turned to Zhao Hao.

"Ri Tian, go for it!"

Zhao Hao immediately understood and directly used his sword to cause destruction, bringing the top restaurant to a standstill on the spot.

It could no longer operate!

...Day after day.

The two ate, drank, played, and enjoyed themselves.

They constantly caused mischief in the industries under the Lin family's banner.

This egregious behavior had already been reported to the Law Enforcement Bureau.

Wang Hong looked at the continuous reports and chose to turn a blind eye.

As soon as he saw the names 'Zhao Ri Tian, the fierce bandit' and 'Li Xunhuan, the fierce bandit,' he knew it was Li Xunle and his brother Zhao Hao.

In his opinion...

These two names, for the Lin family, offered no disguise but were extremely insulting.

They were more insulting than not even bothering to disguise themselves.

However, he had also said...

As long as Li Xunle could find the luck crystal, he could walk sideways in the Ninth District.

Moreover, as far as he knew...

Li Xunle had not affected anyone else; he was only targeting the Lin family.

With Wang Hong turning a blind eye...

The Lin family's industries in the Ninth District had been thoroughly wreaked havoc by the 'Fierce Bandit Duo'.

And they were almost unable to operate.

The reason for the destruction of all the top restaurants was the same—

"I don't eat beef!"

Li Xunle's evil clutches had already extended to the Eighth District, Seventh District, Sixth District... The reports were countless.

All were reports of Lin family industries being ravaged.

And this...

Wang Hong had already informed Zhuge Tianming about this matter.

After Zhuge Tianming learned of it, he instructed the Law Enforcement Bureau in all districts to turn a blind eye.

Because he knew that Li Xunle still had a luck crystal fragment in his possession.

Zhuge Tianming chose to prioritize the bigger picture.

Even if the Lin family came to inquire, he would have a valid explanation.

The importance of the luck crystal fragment was far greater than any industry.

At least, that's how Zhuge Tianming saw it.

Without the luck crystal fragment, all industries would turn into a mirage.

The relative importance was clear at a glance.

Five days later...

Finally...

The Lin family arrived!

The commotion was huge!

Six Level 100 powerhouses, leading twenty-four Half-Level 100 powerhouses, arrived in Wolong City with imposing momentum.

Half-Level 100 refers to Level 99 experts.

A total of thirty people, all from the Lin family.

At this time...

Ten o'clock in the morning.

They were in the central square of Wolong City, creating a tremendous stir!

The onlookers all retreated three paces.

Just by looking at this group, one could tell they were not simple individuals.

These thirty experts directly called out to Zhuge Tianming and the nine Law Enforcement Bureau chiefs.

Of course, they also called out to the instigators—Li Xunle and Zhao Hao.

They told them to quickly come to Wolong City Central Square.

The leader of the Lin family's team was Lin Xiaotian, Level 100, a swordsman.

He was ranked thirty-eighth in the Xia Kingdom's Top 100 rankings, with all his equipment being Level 100 and eight-star.

His attribute gems were also fully embedded.

He had an aura that suggested he would kill gods if he met them, and kill Buddhas if he met them.

The reason he chose Wolong City Central Square was to... establish his authority!

Eighty to ninety percent of the Lin family's industries in Wolong City had been destroyed.

Lin Lei, the deputy director of the Law Enforcement Bureau, had even died directly.

However...

Zhuge Tianming and the nine Law Enforcement Bureau chiefs were surprisingly indifferent and offered no explanation.

This made Lin Xiaotian of the Lin family extremely angry.

Was there still law?

Was there still justice?

If they didn't establish their authority, wouldn't everyone be able to step on the Lin family's face?

And relieve themselves wherever they pleased?

As a top family, the Lin family absolutely could not tolerate this.

On the other side...

Zhuge Tianming and the nine Law Enforcement Bureau chiefs immediately rushed to the Central Square upon hearing the news.

With such a display, they had no choice but to go; they couldn't possibly suppress it.

Zhuge Tianming was preoccupied with worries, feeling that things were not looking good.

Although he knew this day would come sooner or later, he still couldn't help but be filled with apprehension.

Soon...

Zhuge Tianming and the nine Law Enforcement Bureau chiefs arrived at the Central Square.

They saw over thirty experts, exuding an imposing aura, standing ready.

Dissatisfaction was written on everyone's faces!

Extreme dissatisfaction!

Lin Xiaotian's face was grim, a radiant long saber in his hand.

Seeing Zhuge Tianming and his group, he immediately shouted angrily:

"Zhuge Tianming, you're finally here!"

Zhuge Tianming was still slowly walking forward, not speaking.

Lin Xiaotian continued angrily:

"Today! You must give us an explanation!"

Zhuge Tianming led his group, slowly moving closer, standing opposite Lin Xiaotian and his team.

Once they stopped.

Zhuge Tianming did not speak.

A person next to him suddenly spoke:

"Lin Xiaotian, although you are powerful, in terms of position, you cannot yell at the mayor."

The speaker was Zhuge Xingyun, Zhuge Tianming's personal bodyguard.

He was Level 99, a swordsman.

Everyone at the mayor's level could be assigned a high-level bodyguard.

Zhuge Xingyun was Zhuge Tianming's bodyguard.

Lin Xiaotian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he stared unhappily at Zhuge Xingyun, disdainfully saying:

"Who are you? I, a dignified Level 100 powerhouse with countless merits, do you have a right to speak here?"

Zhuge Xingyun was about to speak but was stopped by Zhuge Tianming.

Zhuge Tianming looked calmly at Lin Xiaotian and spoke composedly:

"Lin Xiaotian, I wonder what kind of explanation you're looking for with such a big display?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaotian immediately burst into a rage!

Was this guy playing dumb with him?

Didn't he know what kind of explanation he wanted?

Impossible! He absolutely knew!

A cunning old fox, pretending to be confused while fully understanding!

Lin Xiaotian said coldly, "You should know!"

"Recently, my old mother has been unwell, so I might have been negligent!"

Zhuge Tianming waved his sleeve, saying without batting an eye.

Lin Xiaotian's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself:

What a sly old fox, does he think he can just get rid of me so easily?

His tone was very certain:

"Impossible, you wouldn't not know that Lin Lei, the deputy director of Wolong City's Third Bureau, died."

Zhuge Tianming let out an 'oh' and said dismissively:

"I know about that. We're still investigating the whereabouts of the killer..."

Black lines appeared on Lin Xiaotian's forehead:

"The killer, everyone knows, is the fierce bandit Li Xunhuan and Zhao Ri Tian who have been destroying my Lin family's industries everywhere!"

Zhuge Tianming frowned, looking troubled:

"Yes, we are also looking for their whereabouts, preparing to interrogate them, but we haven't found them; they're very slippery..."

Lin Xiaotian looked at Zhuge Tianming, who had the demeanor of an old fox.

The anger in his heart surged:

"Nine districts, so many Law Enforcement Bureaus, so many law enforcers, and you can't find two people?"

Zhuge Tianming, however, spoke with conviction:

"I'm sure you know that our Ninth District just fell, and a large amount of our resources have been used for post-disaster reconstruction."

"..."

Lin Xiaotian's mouth twitched.

Damn it, this reason... he really couldn't refute it!

What a cunning old fox!
