With a crisp sound, Du Ze was sent flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of teeth and blood, crashing out of the hall and smashing through a rockery in the courtyard.

That's when it landed on the ground.

His body cracked, his bones and muscles shattered by the terrifying impact.

The internal organs were displaced, and even small fragments of internal organs were vomited out mixed with blood, a truly gruesome sight.

This sudden turn of events immediately changed the expressions of Lin Zhongtian and Li Chengfeng in the hall.

They were all shocked, and one of them subconsciously touched his face.

Li Chengfeng glanced at Du Ze, who was lying on the ground like a dead dog, and sneered inwardly.

That fool, a mere captain of the Demon Suppression Division, is only relying on Lei Tianming's backing.

They dared to act so arrogantly in front of Lin Xuan.

He even made rude remarks and threatened Lin Xuan in public.

Doesn't he know that even Lei Tianming, who is behind him, is not as important as Lin Xuan, the commander of the First Army?

Even if Lei Tianming is a member of the Lei family, so what? Lin Xuan can't touch anyone from the Lei family.

Do you think I can't even touch you?

Clearly, Du Ze was so used to being arrogant and conceited that he had forgotten his own limitations and who he was.

Compared to Li Chengfeng, Lin Zhongtian was clearly more shocked.

This was the first time he had seen Lin Xuan make a move, even though there had been rumors that Lin Xuan had killed Zi Chen, the divine envoy of the Longevity Sect.

But since he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, he was now seeing Lin Xuan slap Du Ze, whose strength was no less than his, into a dead dog.

His heart was trembling, and he felt a chill run through his body!

He secretly wondered if Lin Xuan would seek revenge for what happened before.

"This is utterly absurd. A mere captain dares to speak ill of me in front of the Commander-in-Chief."

Lin Xuan's eyes were icy cold; he didn't even glance at Du Ze, who was lying there like a dead dog.

Instead, he looked at Lin Zhongtian with a mocking expression and said, "Is the Demon Suppression Division always this unruly?"

"Ah...oh...well, to report to Commander Lin, I am not a member of the Demon Suppression Division, so I really don't know the answer to this question."

Lin Zhongtian felt extremely bitter and almost burst into tears.

He is now filled with regret.

If I had known, I would have turned down this mission no matter what. Why did I agree to accompany Du Ze to Fengle City instead of Lei Tianming?

Not only is it a thankless task, but now we've encountered this situation.

He felt like dying.

"Commander Lin is quite capable; he managed to clear himself of all charges with just a few words."

Lin Xuan sneered and stared directly at Lin Zhongtian: "They have allowed the Longevity Sect to run rampant in Xiangchu Prefecture, wantonly capturing young men and women as sacrifices."

They attempted to use the Longevity Cult to perform a blood sacrifice and open the Mangshan Secret Realm.

This was your doing, wasn't it?

"No!"

Lin Zhongtian's expression changed slightly, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. He said, "Although I am not a good person, I do not believe that I would do something like using the lives of ordinary people to achieve my own ambitions."

"hehe!"

Lin Xuan chuckled; he naturally didn't believe Lin Zhongtian's words.

This guy, when he sent him to Shanhaiguan, spoke in the same high-sounding words, just like he does now.

"Take that piece of trash and get out of here. Go back and tell that Lei Tianming to wash his neck clean and wait. Within three days, I will take his head."

Of course, he could also escape back to the Demon Suppression Bureau or the Lei family.

"See how easily I can get him..."

Lin Xuan didn't want to waste any more words with Lin Zhongtian. His eyes were cold, filled with murderous intent, and he stared directly at Lin Zhongtian, saying, "I won't kill you today."

It's not because I believe your nonsense.

This is to repay the kindness of you saving my life back then. After today, I owe you nothing.

but!

What you owe me, I will take back myself…

The chilling murderous intent sent a chill down Lin Zhongtian's spine and filled him with bitterness.

He now genuinely doubts whether he made a mistake back then, but unfortunately, there's no going back in this world.

Lin Zhongtian dared not say anything more, immediately turned around and left the hall, carrying Du Ze, who had already fainted and was in a state of near death, and hurriedly left the city lord's mansion.

"Commander, if we let him leave like this, the Mangshan training camp will definitely be prepared."

At this moment, Li Chengfeng, who was in the hall, suddenly said, "Lei Tianming will not sit idly by and wait for his death."

They will inevitably seek help from the Demon Suppression Bureau or the Lei family…

"That's right, he will definitely find people, and it's very likely that it's not just the Lei family and the Demon Suppression Division, but they might even collude with the Longevity Sect."

They've laid a trap at the Mangshan training camp, waiting for me to arrive.

Lin Xuan sneered: "But so what?"

I'm just giving him time to find someone and to make preparations..."

Lin Xuan's words left Li Chengfeng in a daze.

He really couldn't understand where Lin Xuan got such confidence. The Longevity Sect, the Demon Suppression Division, and the Lei family—weren't they all behemoths?

Can Lin Xuan really stop him?

"Alright, you can go now."

Lin Xuan waved his hand and said to Li Chengfeng, "Help me with something. Use all your connections to expose the crimes of Lei Tianming and the others."

Don't try anything funny, or the Lei family and the Demon Suppression Division will come after you.

I'll deal with you now..."

"I wouldn't dare!"

Li Chengfeng quickly replied, "I will do my best."

Li Chengfeng's face was full of bitterness, and he really felt like he was about to vomit blood. Lin Xuan was trying to drag him onto the pirate ship completely.

There is absolutely no room for maneuver.

However, he has no other choice now.

Lei Tianming is someone he can't afford to offend, but Lin Xuan is someone he can't afford to offend even more.
