Subsequently.
As the misunderstanding was cleared up and the excitement had died down, Zhang Wei and his group did not linger.
Seeing Zhang Wei and his group depart.
The Korean ghost exorcist beside him finally couldn't help but ask Jin Zhenghe:
"Mr. Jin Zhenghe, there was no need for you to go so easy, right? Although that Zhang Chao and Wu Nian are the future leaders of China's Maoshan Sect and Wutai Mountain, you beat them like this. I think the international forum will explode again tomorrow."
His intention was obvious: he felt that if Jin Zhenghe was beaten like this by Zhang Wei and the other two, the international forum would definitely mock Korea, saying that Korea's top ghost exorcists couldn't even defeat young people from China, and Korea would be ridiculed.
This was indeed the case.
When Jin Zhenghe and Zhang Wei were fighting, their commotion was significant. Some nearby ghost exorcists came to watch out of curiosity, and the fight was posted on the international forum, which was now generating huge click-through rates.
Jin Zhenghe's mouth twitched:
"Do you think I don't understand what you're saying? The key is that I wasn't going easy at all, I used my full strength."
His voice was not loud, but all the ghost exorcists present heard it, and they looked at Jin Zhenghe as if they had seen a ghost, thinking they had misheard.
Jin Zhenghe ignored them and said frankly:
"From the moment I made my move, I recognized it was Zhang Wei. I intended to go easy and resolve the misunderstanding first, as it was my misunderstanding in the first place. But I couldn't go easy at all. Zhang Wei's strength was not inferior to mine, not to mention his two friends."
"Although those two friends have the strength of a Ghost King and a mid-tier Ghost King, they definitely brought the top-tier magical artifacts from the Maoshan Sect and Wutai Mountain. Damn it, although I am at the Half-Step Zhenguo level and wasn't injured, it still hurt a lot. The two slaps on my face were delivered by them."
In his words.
Jin Zhenghe did not hide his resentment:
"Do you think I don't care about Korea's reputation? The key is that I was beaten so badly that I couldn't fight back. Shiball, how could China produce Sheng Xuan, and now Zhang Wei has appeared. Don't mess with that Zhang Wei."
"Gulp..."
When the ghost exorcists heard this, they couldn't help but swallow. One of them seemed unconvinced and hesitated before asking:
"Mr. Jin Zhenghe, is that Zhang Wei really that powerful? Could it be that because of your misunderstanding, you didn't use deadly moves? What if it was a real life-or-death duel?"
Jin Zhenghe glanced sideways at the other person:
"In a real life-or-death duel, I wouldn't dare to guarantee a sure win. I can feel that Zhang Wei also held back when he made his moves. He also realized the misunderstanding when he fought me, but he is very protective of his own people. Knowing that I made a move against his friend, he had to teach me a lesson. Ah, Shiball."
"This..."
Everyone fell silent. The person who spoke earlier murmured in shock:
"So the rumors about Zhang Wei are true? He really made it into the top ten of the veteran list?!"
...
On the other side.
In the taxi.
Zhang Wei was unaware of the discussion between Jin Zhenghe and his group, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care. He was chatting and laughing with Zhang Chao and Wu Nian.
"Haha, Zhang Wei, your strength is impressive. I thought Xiao Xuan exaggerated about you, but I didn't expect you to have truly become a Half-Step Zhenlong Guard."
Zhang Chao clenched his fist and continued with great satisfaction:
"I can't believe I, just after being promoted to Qilin Guard, got to beat up a Half-Step Zhenlong Guard. It feels so good. So this is how a Half-Step Zhenlong Guard feels. Wu Nian, how do you feel? Isn't it great, haha."
Inevitably.
Zhang Wei and Zhang Chao both looked at Wu Nian.
Feeling their eager gazes, Wu Nian sighed, clasped his hands together, and said:
"Sin, sin. When I was fighting just now, I was indeed a little excited, and I had similar thoughts to Zhang Chao. I didn't expect to be able to fight a Half-Step Zhenlong Guard."
As soon as he spoke.
Zhang Wei and Wu Nian both grinned at each other, as if letting Wu Nian beat people up was more satisfying than them fighting Zhenguo-level experts.
Wu Nian saw through Zhang Wei and the others' thoughts and clasped his hands together:
"Amitabha, don't plot against this humble monk. This humble monk would only make a move because the other party attacked first, and they attacked Zhang Wei."
"What about me? If I were beaten, would you make a move?"
Zhang Chao asked casually.
Wu Nian nodded directly:
"Amitabha, although Zhang Chao, you are a bit vulgar and have no Buddhist affinity, you are this humble monk's friend. If you are beaten, this humble monk will naturally make a move."
"Haha, I love you, Wu Nian. Come, let Brother Zhang Chao give you a kiss."
As Zhang Chao spoke, he was about to kiss Wu Nian, but Wu Nian blocked his face with his hand. At the same time, Wu Nian seemed to have thought of something and asked Zhang Wei:
"Zhang Wei, I heard Donor Jin Zhenghe say that the reason for the fight was the ghost from before, the one suspected to be related to the missing person case. If that's the case, the mastermind of the missing person case dares to attack Zhang Wei's friends and has the strength to not fear a Half-Step Zhenlong Guard. You must be careful."
Zhang Wei nodded:
"I will be careful. As for you, Wu Nian, you should also be careful. With your looks, you are even more dangerous than me."
...
On the other side.
Korea, a large villa estate.
The gardener was sitting in his garden, tending to a freshly planted flower. It was a flower planted by Zhang Ping on his grave on his death anniversary this year, which she, as always, brought to the garden to plant.
"Hmm? You're saying Jin Zhenghe got into a fight with Zhang Wei?"
The gardener stopped fiddling with the soil in his hands, a chilling expression on his beautiful face. The butler beside him trembled and nodded, reporting the matter truthfully.
Immediately.
The gardener's eyes were filled with unbridled anger:
"Damn Jin Zhenghe, what is he doing?"
In his words.
His heart was roaring with rage, like a mother scolding her son who was being bullied at school:
"Damn you, Jin Zhenghe, how dare you touch my godson? And beat him? Good, good, good. Originally, I just wanted to use you as bait to attract attention. You brought this upon yourself. I must kill you tomorrow, no! I'll kill you tonight!"
With a crack.
The enraged gardener snapped the small weeding shovel in his hand. The butler beside him trembled at the sight.
At this moment.
The gardener spoke:
"Go and find the guests who came today. Tell him that tomorrow's operation is moved up. The reason is that I accidentally alerted the enemy and need to act in advance."
"Yes, Master, I'll go right away."
Although he didn't know why the gardener was angry, the butler didn't dare to stay with the gardener for long and scurried off to find the fat man.
Soon.
The fat man was found:
"Gardener, when do we depart?"
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and walked over, looking ready for a fight.
Just now.
The fat man was invited over by the butler. Since the gardener had instructed him to treat the fat man as a distinguished guest, the butler did not hide anything when the fat man asked about the situation. He revealed that the gardener had said they had alerted the enemy and specifically, kindly provided the information that Jin Zhenghe and Zhang Wei had gotten into a fight.
As a result...
When the fat man heard this, the yawn that had just appeared on his face disappeared. He immediately got up from his notebook desk, claiming that since it was moved up, there was no need to delay, and they should start the operation immediately.
In fact.
The fat man was also furious in his heart:
"Your grandmother, Jin Zhenghe, how dare you make a move against my friend? If I don't kill you, how can I, the villain, stand! You must die today!"
