Chapter 355: Chapter 354: What an imposing aura!
Binhai University campus, faculty office.
Having just finished a class, Qin Yanyang returned to her office. She had barely sat down when her phone alerted her with a special text message notification.
Her heart stirred, and she took out her phone to check the message.
Immediately, a look of anger appeared on her face.
The military had actually taken action!
However, her husband had indeed caused such a commotion in broad daylight without any regard for propriety, treating the national laws as if they were nothing and challenging the bottom line of the military.
But the fact that the person leading the operation today had acted without seeking her approval was infuriating; did they no longer consider her authority?
With a sense of helplessness towards Yang Fei’s way of doing things and anger at the military leader for not consulting her, Qin Yanyang left the office immediately upon receiving the message and drove straight to the scene of the incident.
...
Top floor of the Li Family’s Financial Group corporate building.
As an armed team appeared, Yang Fei, Li Xiaoji, together with his two guards and several other employees who had heard the news and come over, all showed expressions of surprise.
Even Yang Fei slightly furrowed his eyebrows, a hint of surprise showing on his face.
This team was dressed somewhat differently.
All of them were fully armed, and the guns they held were different from the usual submachine guns.
When these weapons were pointed at Yang Fei, it gave him a chilling feeling and posed a great threat.
Moreover, these people exuded a sharp aura; with Yang Fei’s current eyesight, he could tell at a glance that they were all experts at the Energy Transformation Realm.
But they were different from the usual Martial Cultivators at the Energy Transformation level; the team gave him the impression that their combat abilities were close to the Middle Third Grade of Energy Transformation Realm, yet their internal True Qi seemed somewhat thin and not sufficiently condensed.
They were not pure Martial Arts cultivators, but rather, they resembled Martial Arts experts who were systematically cultivated and built up by making use of special methods and relying on a robust resource system.
These people were adept at killing, skilled in combat, and more like war machines.
Yang Fei’s expression became slightly more solemn.
This kind of team he had encountered overseas before, but, relatively speaking, the team before him seemed even more dangerous.
This was the greatest assurance that countries had when facing cultivators or superpower users.
"Clack clack clack!!!"
The crisp sound of dress shoes hitting the floor echoed continuously, and before long, a middle-aged man dressed in an army green cloak appeared at the entrance.
This man appeared to be in his late thirties to forties, with a square face, thick brows like knives, deep-set eyes, and a serious expression on his face.
Upon his arrival, his gaze swept over the tragic scene on the ground and then fixed on Yang Fei with an intense, sharp look.
Yang Fei met his gaze and smiled faintly.
"Hehe, I was wondering who it was; turns out it’s the famous Yang Fei of the Martial Arts World who has been making a name for himself recently," the man chuckled and said.
From the man’s tone, Yang Fei knew that he had bad intentions. Indeed, without waiting for his response, the man spoke with a cold voice, "Although you are a legend of the Divine Continent Martial World and an Innate Realm powerhouse, as a citizen of the Divine Continent, you cannot disregard the laws of the Divine Continent. To dare to show off your martial power and go on a killing spree in broad daylight, Yang Fei, do you admit your guilt?"
Yang Fei frowned.
This person, fully aware of his identity, spoke to him in this manner, which showed he was prepared and had even come specifically for him.
Yang Fei didn’t mince words, and replied indifferently, "What crime have I committed?"
"How dare you!"
The person’s gaze turned icy as he scolded sharply, "You killed so many people in public and still claim to be innocent?"
"Since you recognize me, you know I am a Martial Artist, and also an Innate Realm Martial Artist. May I ask if an Innate Realm Martial Artist can be provoked?" Yang Fei asked indifferently.
The person’s expression was ice-cold as he huffed, "Are Grandmasters beyond reproach?"
Yang Fei nodded, "These are the rules of the Martial World. I acted within the rules, so what crime have I committed?"
"Hahaha, do you think you can escape your crimes using the rules of the Martial World?" The man sneered. "On the Great Divine Continent, no rules can supersede the laws of the Divine Continent. Moreover, among those you killed today were foreigners, who are not part of the Divine Continent Martial World. By killing him, you’ve violated Martial World rules and even more so, you’ve touched upon the laws of the Divine Continent. Therefore, I must arrest you and bring you to justice."
Yang Fei’s pupils contracted slightly as he stared at the man, "Who are you, which department do you belong to, and what right do you have to capture me?"
"Remember this, my name is Luo Ping, Vice Thousand Households of the Divine Continent Military Department in Jiangnan County. According to the laws of the Divine Continent, the Military Department has the special authority to decide the fate of all Martial Artists or Superpower Users within Divine Continent, specifically managing and restraining Superpower Users. You, Yang Fei, being a cultivator, fall under the jurisdiction of our Military Department. Since you’ve caused trouble within my jurisdiction, I am justified and lawful in arresting you."
Yang Fei’s brow furrowed deeply upon hearing this.
This was his first time hearing about this department, the Military Department, after returning to his country.
And this department’s power was indeed not small at all.
He always thought that the Martial Alliance of the Divine Continent Martial World was the department responsible for governing Martial Artists, helping the nation to restrain the conduct of Martial Artists, establishing their own rules and systems, restraining Martial Artists within these systems, and aiding the nation in managing Martial Artists to prevent Martial Artists from committing crimes with their strength.
It was unexpected that, in addition to the Martial Alliance, the nation had established a special department like the Military Department.
However, although he was shocked, Yang Fei was not afraid.
Now that his combat power had recovered to more than ninety percent of its potential, the confidence of his past had long returned to him.
When he first returned to the country, he kept a low profile everywhere, thinking of not causing any trouble and living a peaceful life in Binhai.
His mentality was different now.
Having recovered his strength to this extent, he had already started to seek revenge for the past incident when the International Madman was besieged. Therefore, even if he could no longer stay in Divine Continent Country, it did not matter; he could just leave the Divine Continent.
It was for this reason that he had chosen the simplest and most brutal way to deal with the provocation and trouble caused by Li Zhongni.
He had thought that with his current reputation in the Divine Continent and his relation with the Qin Family, such a minor issue would not cause any stir. He had not expected the emergence of the Military Department, and furthermore, for the Vice Thousand Households of Jiangnan County himself to lead a team to arrest him.
He knew this must involve deeper levels of conflict.
"Take him, away!" Luo Ping commanded decisively after explaining his identity and authority, waving his hand to give the order.
Immediately, several armed men approached Yang Fei.
A cruel smile appeared on Luo Ping’s lips as he said coldly, "Those who resist, kill without mercy!"
Military Department law enforcement was always merciless.
Yang Fei snorted coldly, and a ferocious aura suddenly burst forth from him.
He would not surrender without a fight.
Even if he had great confidence in Qin Yanyang, he would not allow himself to be controlled by others.
Life comes only once, and a person like him could not allow himself to be put in jeopardy.
As the domineering aura emanated from Yang Fei, the expressions of the four Martial Artists from the Military Department became solemn as they prepared for action.
Luo Ping’s gaze darkened, as he said coldly, "Do you dare to resist arrest and disobey orders?"
Yang Fei did not intend to argue with him anymore. Just as he was about to make his move, a crisp and resonant voice rang in his ears, "Luo Ping, how arrogant you are to even dare to capture my man!"
