Seeing General Guo's loss of composure, Patriarch Chen couldn't help but frown and said, "What's wrong? He's just a colonel. His position is limited. I can still suppress this matter!"

After confirming the name and age, General Guo was once again shocked and asked, "Are you Li Xuan?"

Li Xuan!

This name was once very famous in Dongshan Province because he was the only national champion in the province.

And this year's national champion has actually grown to such a level now. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, if I hadn't just subdued him, I would have been amazed.

He simply couldn't believe this.

"Li Xuan?"

The head of the Chen family repeated the name several times in his mind and felt extremely familiar with it. At the same time, he also felt very familiar with Li Xuan's appearance.

Suddenly, a light bulb went off in his head and he suddenly remembered Li Xuan's identity.

This person is the national champion of this year!

This identity is not worth mentioning at all for someone at his level. After all, it takes at least ten years for a national champion to grow to his current level.

Most geniuses who have no background or whose talents are exhausted in the later stages are stuck on the fifth and sixth level advancement tasks.

But this Li Xuan of this session actually already possesses the fighting power to sweep them away.

This is really too scary, and coupled with his identity as a military colonel, it is simply a king bomb.

The rank of colonel is the end of military rank for many people, but for Li Xuan it is just the beginning.

As the head of a local snake family in a province, he is very aware of the human race's cultivation and attention to such geniuses. In terms of background, who can compare with him?

thump!

When he thought of this, the head of the Chen family's knees went weak and he collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud.

General Guo's face was also pale at this moment, but he quickly accepted this fact and respectfully stepped forward to hand the document to Li Xuan.

"As a military commander, you've become a lackey of these powerful families. Have you forgotten the original purpose of becoming a soldier?"

Li Xuan's question hit his heart like a headbutt.

General Guo's body swayed a few times, then he stood firm and said, "After this incident, I will voluntarily resign my position and rank and go to the battlefield of the Demon Realm to fight. I will not return until I am dead!"

At the end of his speech, his tone was hoarse and his eyes became extremely sincere. He almost betrayed these things before, but fortunately he held on in the end.

Looking at his eyes, Li Xuan understood that he had reawakened the oaths he had made about the military deep in his heart.

As the rescue signal from the head of the Guo family was sent out, the strongest man from the provincial capital rushed here as quickly as possible.

In order for a seventh-level, seventh-stage family head to send out a distress signal, an eighth-level person must be dispatched to resolve the issue, and there is only one eighth-level person in Dongshan Province.

That was the provincial governor Zhang Yueshan.

"Chen Lu, what happened?" Zhang Yueshan's eighth-level aura instantly overwhelmed the entire venue.

The smugness and arrogance on the face of the Chen family's head were gone. He just lowered his head and said, "It's all a misunderstanding."

Seeing his abnormal attitude, Zhang Yueshan glanced at the other people around him. Before coming, he had not found any eighth-level strongmen, so he did not treat it as a big enemy at all.

He didn't take anyone here seriously at all. Only the aura of one person could really attract his attention.

He turned his gaze towards the powerful man and immediately saw an old acquaintance.

"Governor Zhang."

Li Xuan looked at him with a smile. This provincial governor was also one of the guides on his growth path.

"Li Xuan?"

Zhang Yueshan was stunned at first, but then he burst into laughter. "Haha, why is it you, kid? It's been so long since we last met, and your fighting power is almost surpassing mine!"

Seeing how familiar the two were with each other, Chen Lu, the head of the Chen family, immediately closed his eyes. With his keen sense of smell, he could even see the decline of his family.

"No, if it weren't for your cultivation and protection, I would not have been able to pass the college entrance examination so smoothly and enter Jingcheng College. I have to thank you for that."

Li Xuan spoke very sincerely in front of such an elder.

Zhang Yueshan was delighted by what he said, and his face immediately lit up with joy. "It's all the result of your own hard work and talent. It has nothing to do with me. Besides, to have a genius like you is the dream of every provincial governor."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. What exactly happened here?"

Compared to Chen Lu, he naturally trusts Li Xuan more.

Li Xuan only gave a brief account of what happened, and with so many people around who could confirm it, Zhang Yueshan quickly figured out what was going on.

His expression darkened. "How could such a thing happen in my Dongshan Province? Where's the city lord? Get out here!"

He roared angrily.

Li Xuan could only point to Chen Huairen, who was lying half-dead not far away. "He's over there. I beat him half to death!"

"Hmph, he dares to act so recklessly. I'll throw him into the dungeon in the provincial capital and keep him from ever seeing the light of day!" Zhang Yueshan waved his hand.

The people from the provincial governor's office under his command immediately carried away the half-dead Chen Huairen.

"Good, well managed!"

At this moment, Chen Lu suddenly came out and clapped his hands loudly, saying, "We have eliminated a cancer for the people of Beining City, and also eliminated a scourge for our Chen family!"

Everyone present was ashamed after watching his shameless performance.

Li Xuan even wanted to give him a thumbs up: "Master Chen, you are really good at pretending. You were not like this just now."

"I was deceived by this guy before. Even if you don't believe me, Governor, you have to believe me too!" Chen Lu looked at the Governor pleadingly.

The reason why he lowered his posture so much was that he hoped the governor would show leniency and not punish him for the sake of the Chen family's influence.

Zhang Yueshan put his hands behind his back. He was naturally well aware of the Chen family's influence in Dongshan Province. It would not be easy to touch such a local tyrant.

However, if this local tyrant crosses the red line, it will be a different matter.

"Master Chen, you just said he was a cancer. Doesn't your Chen family produce cancer? Isn't your Chen family also a cancer to the entire Dongshan Province?"

Zhang Yueshan asked.

After hearing this, Chen Lu's face suddenly darkened. He knew that the situation was probably irreversible, otherwise Zhang Yueshan would not have said this.

General Guo, standing by, knelt on one knee and pleaded guilty, "Please punish me, Governor!"
