Seeing Ye Tian's disbelieving look, Tu Sandao smiled wryly.
"Mr. Ye, you should know about the Seven Clans and One Palace in Jiangnan City, right?"
Ye Tian frowned and shook his head.
"I've never heard of it."
Tu Sandao was stunned and looked at Ye Tian in disbelief.
The Seven Clans and One Palace have dominated Jiangnan City for decades, making them a behemoth.
It's normal for ordinary people not to know, but how could Ye Tian, as a Xuan-rank martial artist, not know?
How is that possible?
However, Tu Sandao still explained to Ye Tian.
"The so-called Seven Clans and One Palace refers to the eight largest forces in Jiangnan City."
"The Seven Clans are the seven most powerful families in Jiangnan City."
"The first hall is the Skull Hall."
"These eight major forces, although they fight each other constantly for their own interests."
"But they all have one thing in common: the founders were all servants of a powerful figure."
"And Hu Wei had the honor of shining shoes for that important person for three years."
"Although I am not quite a servant, I have had connections with that important person."
"This is the source of Hu Wei's arrogance!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Tian immediately laughed.
"Is a shoeshine servant worth your so much fear?"
"Mr. Ye, you don't know this!" Tu Sandao sighed.
"Those seven clans and one palace house a large number of martial artists."
"They've been itching to plunder wealth in Jiangnan City and expand their own power for a long time."
"But they have been closely monitored by the special investigation team at the provincial level, and they have been unable to find a suitable reason."
"Now that Hu Wei is dead, these eight major forces will surely take the opportunity to cause trouble."
"At that time, they will definitely use the pretext of avenging Hu Wei to kill, rob, and seize wealth."
"The consequences would be unimaginable!"
Ye Tian raised an eyebrow after hearing this.
Only then did I understand what Tu Sandao and Liu Ying were worried about.
It turns out that Hu Wei is not so scary.
What's frightening is that his death could become the trigger for disrupting the balance between the special investigation team and the major powers.
This gives the eight major powers a blatant reason to break the rules.
Ye Tian was all too familiar with this scene.
Back in the Immortal Realm, the various powers often used the same tactics to kill and plunder.
They could fabricate a story about a lost treasure or a missing disciple to frame a wealthy but not very powerful sect or family.
Then, they joined forces with other forces to launch a coordinated attack and destroy them.
Countless treasures fell into the hands of these people, leaving behind only countless corpses and wronged souls.
Ye Tian has always looked down on this kind of approach.
However, they also know that this is the law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak.
It was simply unavoidable.
“Managing martial artists and maintaining order is the responsibility of your special investigation team, and you should take the lead in this task.”
puff!
Upon hearing Ye Tian's words, Tu Sandao nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
You make it sound so easy!
My special investigation team consists of only a few people.
Of the six deputy team leaders, you killed two and crippled another.
What am I supposed to use to make this?
Moreover, you are the one who caused this trouble.
You, on the other hand, wiped yourself clean and pushed the blame onto the special investigation team, as if it were none of your business.
That's outrageous!
Despite his dissatisfaction, Tu Sandao knew he couldn't do anything to Ye Tian.
He laughed angrily, a resolute look in his eyes.
“Great chaos is about to break out, and the special investigation team will naturally not stand idly by.”
"I will not back down even if I slay three times."
"There's no point in saying more now that things have come to this."
“Mr. Ye, if you still want to kill me, then go ahead and do it.”
"If you don't kill me, I'll keep my life and fight the rebellious warriors to the death!"
"Charge forward without hesitation, even at the cost of death!"
Ye Tian, with his hands behind his back, glanced at him and said calmly.
Why make it sound so tragic?
"Since this matter originated from me, I will help you settle it."
Ye Tian was not an arrogant person. Since killing Hu Wei had brought such a great hidden danger, he was willing to accept it.
Then why not take action myself to eliminate the hidden danger!
"Settle this matter?"
Tu Sandao looked shocked and asked.
"How do you plan to resolve this matter?"
Ye Tian raised his chin, his tone arrogant and authoritative.
"It's simple, kill!"
"Anyone who dares to cause trouble, I will kill!"
"Use ruthless methods to carve out a bright and just world!"
