"Yo, Accountant Liu, what are you hiding from?"
Li Tianjiao raised an eyebrow.
Liu Pangzi couldn't help but chuckle awkwardly at the remark. "No, no, nothing. I was just wondering why Village Chief Lao Tian suddenly fainted?"
"Heh, don't worry about him. He harbored a fugitive and committed a serious crime himself. You'll likely be the village chief soon. You should find someone to take over your accounting duties quickly!"
Li Tianjiao sneered and called out.
As his words fell,
Liu Pangzi could only force a dry laugh, while the surrounding villagers quickly gathered around.
They didn't care about the life or death of Village Chief Lao Tian!
They only knew one thing now.
That was that the accountant position would be vacant. Who couldn't do basic math these days? Moreover, Qing'ao Village was originally a poor establishment with not much money to count. Therefore, this easy job with a guaranteed meal was naturally something everyone desired!
Just as these people were crowding around Liu Pangzi, discussing the accountant position,
Li Tianjiao turned back and gave Ling Feng a thumbs-up. "Well done. So you had everything arranged long ago. Now, this fatso is in for a panic!"
Ling Feng remained unfazed and raised his hand to signal the four soldiers.
Nalan Xing on the ground was immediately lifted by the four soldiers.
"Take him back to the base for execution!"
Ling Feng's indifferent words fell, and the four soldiers, grabbing Nalan Xing, were about to head out.
Nalan Xing instantly became agitated and shouted, "Ling Tianci, you can't kill me! I, I still have things I can tell you! You can't kill me!"
These words caused Liu Pangzi, who was surrounded by villagers, to change his expression drastically.
At this moment, Liu Pangzi truly regretted not having Village Chief Lao Tian kill Nalan Xing.
If he had known earlier that Village Chief Lao Tian was going to be captured, he should have let Village Chief Lao Tian make his move just then.
Now, the situation seemed very passive.
No, it should be said that the current situation was extremely tense. Their actions were completely exposed, and because of Nalan Xing alone, their years-long intelligence network might be exposed.
This was naturally a fatal blow to them!
"I'm not interested in listening. Take him back for immediate execution!"
Ling Feng added indifferently.
The figures of the four soldiers taking Nalan Xing had completely disappeared.
When Ling Feng turned back again, the three Grand Elders couldn't help but gasp.
"There's something wrong with the people in this village!" Elder Bei spoke first.
Elder Nan nodded repeatedly. "Yes, that Village Chief Lao Tian is definitely problematic!"
"Heh, do you two need to state the obvious? Did you help at all from beginning to end? Besides causing trouble, what else can you do? This was all Ling Tianci's plan, something you two could never see through! Hmph, go back and prepare to be shot!"
Li Tianjiao directly reprimanded the two. After several years of being in the Elder's Court, today was the most satisfying day for Li Tianjiao.
It truly felt like a moment of triumph!
"What? You dare to shoot me?!"
"No, this has nothing to do with us. Why should we be punished?"
The two Grand Elders immediately became somewhat cowardly.
Only those with true strength had the right to speak. Nalan Xing had indeed been captured, and now they were the losing side. They had lost all right to speak in front of Ling Feng and the other.
Elder Xi beside them could only shake his head with a wry smile, then said to Ling Feng, "Heavenly Venerate, isn't this punishment a bit too severe? Even if we were negligent, we shouldn't be shot..."
Ling Feng ignored everyone and, with a wave of his hand, led everyone out.
All the experts from the Elder's Court followed with trembling steps.
Cars had already been arranged outside. Fighter jets consumed energy, and they had only used them to act quickly.
Now, there was no need to rush.
So, the few of them got into the cars and slowly meandered back along the mountain road.
However, the atmosphere in the car at this moment was extremely solemn.
The faces of the North and South Grand Elders remained deathly pale. They were truly extremely anxious.
They were afraid that Ling Feng would indeed follow Li Tianjiao's words and have them shot.
"I'll give you a chance. Hand over everything in the black market, abdicate from the Elder's Court, and live out your remaining years in peace!"
Ling Feng spoke indifferently.
The North and South Grand Elders' faces changed drastically upon hearing this.
After exchanging glances, the conflicted expressions and flames of anger in their eyes were fully revealed!
"The complexity of the black market is beyond your imagination. If we hadn't stabilized the black market, it would have descended into chaos long ago. Do you know how many people can lose their lives due to the profits in the darkness?"
Elder Nan took a deep breath and said coldly.
But as his words fell, Ling Feng turned back directly.
He extended a hand, as fast as lightning. Everyone around had no chance to react.
Even Li Tianjiao, seeing this, widened his eyes in extreme shock. "This freak's strength seems to have improved again. With such a move, I wouldn't be able to dodge it. Elder Nan is finished!"
Crack!
A crisp sound was heard. Elder Nan's neck was snapped, and at the same time, scorching blood-red flames appeared around him. In just an instant, a super expert from the Elder's Court turned into ashes!
Elder Xi beside him widened his eyes, gasped, and couldn't help but shake his head repeatedly.
Elder Bei, however, exclaimed in horror and pointed at Ling Feng, angrily reprimanding, "You, you actually dared to kill Elder Nan directly?!"
"So what if I killed him? The stability of the Elder's Court and the prosperity of the city were built through the countless efforts of the predecessors of the Elder's Court. Do you really think it was your strength? Do you not know how much profit you've controlled over the years? I don't want to pursue the money and wealth anymore, and I don't want to bother with your descendants. Now I'm giving you a way out, and you're still dawdling!"
"Hmph, do you really think I, Ling Tianci, wouldn't dare to kill people?"
Ling Feng reprimanded coldly, each word making Elder Bei tremble all over!
"Because of this guy's nonsense just now, you've lost your last chance. I will have people reclaim everything your two families shouldn't have taken over the years. You are not qualified to live in peace. You will be imprisoned in the Elder's Court forever, waiting to die!"
Ling Feng's order was extremely domineering, leaving no room for rebuttal.
Of course, Elder Bei's face turned ashen. He opened his mouth, only to see Ling Feng raise a hand slightly.
He trembled all over, gritted his teeth, and sat back down.
Then, he completely slumped, knowing that everything had come to an end.
Li Tianjiao, standing beside him, couldn't help but frown slightly. "Killing them all might cause some turmoil in the black market."
"As the King of the Town, you failed to manage them properly, allowing them to cause so many problems. Are you still relying on me to clean up your mess? The black market naturally needs you to rectify it, and there's probably a lot of profit to be made!"
Ling Feng said casually.
Li Tianjiao was initially a little displeased, but upon hearing about the profit, his eyes lit up.
However, he noticed Elder Xi looking at the two of them with a dumbfounded expression.
Li Tianjiao then coughed. "What profit or no profit, I'm not like them. A gentleman loves wealth and obtains it righteously. As the saying goes..."
"If this matter is too troublesome, you can also work without salary!" Ling Feng's words choked Li Tianjiao!
