Qi Jun never expected that this kid would have such a tough back!

A direct confrontation is definitely not an option; it will only result in mutual destruction.

Therefore, something has to be sacrificed!

As a young master, he naturally couldn't sacrifice himself. He immediately grabbed Qiao Liuzi, pulled out a pistol from his pocket, and pressed it against Qiao Liuzi's head.

"Young Master Qi, you..."

Bang!

After a gunshot, Qiao Liuzi's head exploded.

"Little Six!"

Fifth Master Qiao's eyes were bloodshot.

Although he was angry with his unfilial son, his heart still clenched when his son actually collapsed.

Young Master Qi sneered, "Director Liu, you see, I've already executed this criminal. Now, I'm done with this, aren't I?"

He had a lot of dirt on Qiao Liuzi, and he knew that Qiao Liuzi was finished. If the investigation were thorough, it would definitely implicate him. So he decided to go all the way and die so that there would be no way to prove it.

Lin Yu sneered disdainfully, "You think you can silence me by killing me? Today, you will die, and I don't need any evidence to kill you!"

Young Master Qi was stunned. He hadn't expected this kid to be so powerful. He had already admitted defeat by killing Qiao Liuzi, but this kid still wanted to kill him.

"You son of a bitch, do you think I'm easily intimidated? You're giving me the cold shoulder, I'll just stand here and not move. Come and kill me if you dare!"

Qi Jun immediately started shouting.

What gives them the right to shout?

I'm awesome!

I am a nobleman from Jiangdong, and I am rich!

My sister is a daughter-in-law of a prominent family, so I have a prestigious family background!

My maternal grandfather was the commander of Feidong, with 300,000 elite troops!

What can you, the Governor-General of Liangjiang, do? Do you have any real power? Can you mobilize the army?

He was certain that Lin Yu wouldn't dare kill him!

Can Lin Yu indulge his bad behavior?

Obviously not!

He immediately waved his hand.

Qi Jun floated in front of him like a falling leaf, then fell flat on his face.

Lin Yu stepped forward, ready to step on the mushroom.

"Your Excellency, please reconsider!"

Liu Qingyuan couldn't hold back any longer and shouted it out.

Lin Yu frowned. "What, you want to plead for him?"

Liu Qingyuan quickly shook his head. "Governor, even if Young Master Qi is guilty, killing him like this will only make things worse. Even if you are in the right, you will be in the wrong. The powerful families of Jiangdong and Yandu will not let this go easily. What if they cause you trouble because of this!"

"Hehe, perhaps you don't know me yet. The aristocratic families aren't as powerful as you think. Even princes are subject to the same laws as commoners. I've killed more than one or two aristocratic scions! And don't forget, I'm not only the Governor-General of Liangjiang, but also the Imperial Inspector of Eight Prefectures. I wield the Imperial Sword, capable of beheading imperial relatives and corrupt officials alike. What can't I kill, a mere playboy? Now that he's condoning the Qiao Gang's evil deeds, it's perfectly justified for me to kill him!"

Upon hearing this, Young Master Qi's face turned green.

"You, you mustn't forget, I still have my grandfather, my master's 300,000-strong army in Feidong. If anything happens to me, he can give the order and we'll march south immediately! And chop off your dog's head!"

"Three hundred thousand troops in Feidong, that's impressive?"

Lin Yu sneered, "With my million-strong army in the Northeast, I can flatten your Feidong with a single order. Don't even mention your mere Feidong; even if half of the Great Xia war zone came at me, I'd still chop melons and vegetables. What are you pretending for!"

Click!

Lin Yu wasn't one to tolerate such behavior, and he actually stepped on it.

The egg broke!

ah--

A piercing scream rang out, and Qi Jun sat bolt upright, his eyes now crossed.

This was no longer the imposing Young Master Qi; he resembled a defeated rooster.

Northeast Army?

Holy crap!

He is...

At this moment, some people present seemed to have already guessed Lin Yu's identity.

Although they were unaware of the appointment of the Governor-General of Liangjiang, they had certainly heard about the troublemaker in the Northeast.

With his own strength, he overwhelmed the eight great clans, causing chaos and turmoil in Yandu, and completely overturning the political landscape of the aristocratic families.

Furthermore, the greatest contributor to the covert war, a modern-day version of the legendary hero Feng Lang Ju Xu, was highly praised by the Grand Secretary! He was granted the immense power of an imperial inspector of eight prefectures, allowing him to execute first and report later!

Although there were rumors that this person had gone south, they were all hearsay, but now it has been completely confirmed.

"We pay our respects to Your Excellency the Governor!"

Some of the officials and dignitaries present immediately rolled over and kowtowed deeply.

I'm trembling!

How can it not shake?

Their presence here, celebrating Qiao Liuzi's occasion, is tantamount to a crime and is undignified!

Especially since some of these are local officials!

"Your Excellency, we have no connection with the Qiao Gang. We were only invited here. Please investigate!"

"If we had known what Qiao Bang had done, we wouldn't have dared to come. Please forgive us, Governor!"

Two of the higher-ranking individuals immediately kowtowed and begged for forgiveness.

Whether in officialdom or a gang, there's one principle you need to understand to succeed.

If you're wrong, admit it; if you get hit, stand firm!

The two burst into tears, expressing their deep regret. They even slapped themselves in the face.

Lin Yu just watched coldly.

"Are you done talking?"

"I don't believe you didn't know what kind of person Qiao Bang was before you came, but you still came today!"

"I can forgive you, but will the people forgive you? Huh? Tell me loudly!"

Lin Yu was furious.

This collusion between officials and bandits is utterly disgraceful!

Forgiveness is tantamount to betrayal. Where does that leave the people who have suffered persecution by gangs?

When Lin Yu yelled at and questioned them, everyone trembled with fear. Some of the more timid ones even wet themselves on the spot.
