"You bastard! I only embezzled a few million, is that a capital offense?"

Li Gang, on the contrary, sped up.

Wang Yong advised, "Drive slowly, it's okay. Nalan Feng is my brother in arms. He deliberately let us go. Drive slowly."

Li Gang nodded, but his speed didn't slow down at all.

He looked nervous, muttering to himself, his eyes blank and filled with intense resentment and hatred.

"Why? Why on earth?"

He said dryly, "There are many corrupt officials, but even those who embezzle tens or hundreds of millions are not directly executed. What makes Fang Zong so special? Just because he's a thug in a suit?"

Li Gang couldn't understand it at all.

Although he embezzled more than ten million, it's not a lot!

Although some municipal construction projects were not completed well because of his corruption and bribery, they were all small projects. At most, they would collapse and kill a few people. At most, it would be indirect murder. Why should he be executed?

This was just a matter of replacing some sewage channel gates; nothing went wrong. Why is this happening?

Wang Yong frowned as he listened to his muttering, wishing he could slap his second uncle.

At other times, it's one thing, but even if it's a shoddy construction project, it takes months or even years for problems to arise, and it's very difficult to find an official indirectly responsible.

But this time, it's the work of a hungry demon. Giant rats are eating people. The fence gate wasn't made sturdy enough, and the giant rats easily broke through and ate people. What should we do?

How much is a human life worth?

[You bastard! If you weren't my second uncle, and if Mother hadn't died young, and you weren't her only brother, I would have killed you with my own hands!]

Wang Yong was furious.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from the sky. A helicopter flew over the roof of the car and landed in front of it, where several people got off.

Leading the group was Chen Hezheng, followed by three tall young men who squatted in a horse stance with their hands outstretched.

"You bastard! You think you can stop my car?"

Li Gang had completely lost his mind. Either way, he was going to die, so he'd rather commit a capital offense and die first. Instead of stopping, he accelerated.

I'll run you over!

"You'll only end up killing yourself."

Wang Yong shook his head, kicked open the car door, grabbed Li Gang by the collar, and swiftly pulled away from the speeding vehicle.

Just before getting out of the car, he kicked it again, causing it to flip over onto the curb and roll and break apart in the ditch.

He landed twenty meters directly in front of Chen He, put Li Gang down, and said in a deep voice, "Give me a way out."

"The commander has given the order: in this critical period, anyone who dares to hold back will be killed on the spot."

Chen Hezheng shook his head decisively and said, "You should know who the current leader of Zhongshan City is. Let him go; you can't protect him."

Wang Yong shook his head with a wry smile.

He didn't want to protect a brainless corrupt official, but unfortunately, this person was his second uncle, his own second uncle.

"Chen Hezheng, you are just an ordinary person, don't concern yourself with the affairs of us military officers."

Wang Yong took a deep breath, wishing he could punch his conscience a few times, but still said with a stern face, "I know that Zhongshan City is currently under the control of the suit-wearing thug Fang Zong, but you must also understand that he is only number one on the Leopard List, not me!"

He jabbed his chest hard, biting his lip until it bled: "I, Wang Yong, am neither virtuous nor talented, like mud at the bottom of a ditch, without wind or dust. But my master is ranked sixty-third on the Tiger List, a sub-magic level expert with two spells. Even if Fang Zong is here, he will still give me some face!"

"Oh, I didn't expect that to cause trouble for Fang Zong, he would actually save the kind-hearted Wang Yong?"

Suddenly, a strange laugh came from the west.

This is a north-south highway, with a downward slope to the west leading directly to a river that encircles the city.

At this moment, scarlet beast eyes appeared in the river water, and a giant rat slowly crawled out. On the giant rat's head sat a leisurely, pitch-black figure.

Upon seeing this person, Wang Yong and Chen He were both visibly surprised, exclaiming, "A Flower?"

This person is actually the missing flower, a top twenty figure on the Leopard Ranking.

But he was already dead; what came was a ghost.

Yizhihua smiled and said, "I am already dead, so I am no longer a military general. My memories of the past are also very vague, but I know that you are the kind-hearted person ranked thirty-second on the Leopard Ranking. Although your strength is weak, your interpersonal relationships are excellent. You are not at all ashamed of the title of kind-hearted person."

Wang Yong glared angrily, but dared not make a move, and asked, "What do you want?"

"Hehe." Yizhihua continued to smile.

He just smiled, but everyone present, including Wang Yong, Chen Hezheng, and the seven or eight military officers that Chen Hezheng brought, dared not move.

A terrifying sense of oppression emanated from Yizhihua's body, spreading around them, making it clearly perceptible to them—

Yizhihua is even stronger than when she was alive, and has become a powerful expert at the peak of the ninth level of the Dharma!

"Not that great, but I am now Lord Hungry Demon's subordinate."

Yizhihua was very satisfied with the fearful expressions on everyone's faces. She suggested to Wang Yong, "Why don't I save you and then you can use your energy properly when you get back? What I asked for, no, what Lord Hungry Demon asked for, is very simple: to make Fang Zong live in constant fear and anxiety."

I know your capabilities. You were right earlier, even if Fang Zong were here, he'd still give you a run for your money... Holy crap!

Suddenly, a powerful pressure swept across the land.

Everyone present felt a sense of unease. They looked up and saw a large shadow, as if a dragon had fallen from the sky!

Spell - Netherworld Tremor!

With a loud 'thud,' Fang Zong landed perfectly on Yizhihua's head.

Before Yizhihua could even utter a single "Holy crap!", her ghostly body was flattened, like a dumpling wrapper that had been rolled out countless times.

He vomited greenish-blue ghost blood, his entire ghost body was dull and lifeless, and he went from a ghost at the peak of the magic sect to a little ghost that even ordinary people feared.

"Shit, I'm sitting on the wrong side!" Fang Zong picked up Yizhihua, his expression one of utter despair.

The damage radius of the Netherworld Shock is fifty meters, and the closer to the center, the stronger the damage.

He originally landed about fifty meters to the left of Yizhihua, but unfortunately, he didn't have enough energy. As a newly ascended sub-magic level expert, his ability to manipulate spells was quite limited.

So I sat on one side.

So... he sat there until he died.

Fang Zong was in a bad mood for wasting a level nine ghost. He shook his arm and sent the flower flying into wisps of smoke.

Then he walked over and asked, "What happened?"

“This…” Chen He was looking at Wang Yong.

He gestured with his eyes: "Since the leader is here, you can talk to him yourself."

Chen Hezheng couldn't guarantee whether Fang Zong would give the nice guy Wang Yong any face.

However, firstly, Li Gang's crimes didn't warrant death, and secondly, a sub-magical level expert with two types of magic was truly powerful, so he felt—

They'll probably give it to you, right?

Fang Zong will probably give Wang Yong some face.
