Yang Cheng nodded and said, "That's inevitable. Wu Tianqing has amassed so much wealth over the years. Some he kept for himself, some he distributed to his subordinates and confidants, but most of it was definitely used to bribe his superiors."
There's definitely someone within the Demon Extermination Alliance headquarters who's Wu Tianqing's backer. If you two submit the case, it might get suppressed.
Fei Zhongshu sighed deeply. He was older and knew that what Yang Cheng said was very likely to happen.
Zhao Mingzhu asked, unwilling to give up, "Then what should we do? Are we just going to sit idly by and watch that scoundrel Wu Tianqing get away with it?"
Yang Cheng said in a deep voice, "I do have an idea, but I don't know if you two are willing to take the risk."
"What idea?"
Yang Cheng squinted and said, "It's very simple. We'll act first and report later. We'll kill Wu Tianqing directly, and then hand over the case files of his various crimes to solidify his guilt!"
Even if he has connections at headquarters, who would be willing to speak up for a dead man?
Fei Zhongshu and Zhao Mingzhu exchanged a glance, both of them inwardly horrified.
Killing a leader of the Demon Extermination Alliance sounds simple, but it is actually very difficult.
Those who can become leaders are generally not very strong or capable. They are not even confident of defeating Fei Zhongshu alone, let alone facing Wu Tianqing's trusted subordinates.
Yang Cheng then said, "If you two are willing, I can help you kill Wu Tianqing."
Fei Zhongshu and Zhao Mingzhu both witnessed Yang Cheng's strength on Mount Baisheng.
The opponent was able to wipe out Hundred Victory Mountain and kill those great demons; he truly possesses such strength.
However, Fei Zhongshu did not agree immediately. Instead, he asked in a deep voice, "Brother Yang, I believe you have the ability, but why are you helping us like this?"
Yang Cheng said directly, "To be honest, I'm not helping you, I just want revenge."
Previously, Wu Tianqing wanted to kill me and lured me into a dangerous situation to try and kill me, but luckily I had some skills and managed to escape.
Life is nothing more than a matter of seeking revenge and repaying kindness; if this grudge isn't avenged, my heart will not be at peace!
If Yang Cheng said he wanted to kill Wu Tianqing for justice and for the honor of the Demon Extermination Alliance, Fei Zhongshu really didn't believe it.
But when Yang Cheng so frankly said that he wanted to settle a personal score and get revenge, he actually believed him.
In addition, Yang Cheng was their savior, and given this karmic connection, Fei Zhongshu nodded and said, "Alright! I'll leave everything to you, Brother Yang."
Even if you could kill Wu Tianqing, he still has a group of trusted subordinates, and those won't be easy to deal with.
Yang Cheng said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, Wu Tianqing is not as powerful as you think."
He was too harsh and ungrateful. Within the entire Demon Extermination Alliance branch, only a small number of people were his confidants; most of the others were simply acting out of fear of his power.
As long as we can take down Wu Tianqing, the others are no threat.
"In a few days, it will be the gathering of the executioners from the Liang Kingdom's Demon-Exorcising Alliance branch. I will kill them in front of everyone then. You two just need to reveal your identities as inspectors to maintain order."
The Demon Extermination Alliance Gathering is a regular event for all branches of the Demon Extermination Alliance in Kyushu.
Each branch will choose a day each year as a gathering day, which can be attended by either members of the branch or members from outside the branch.
The main purpose of the gathering was for the leader to show off his achievements over the past year, such as how many monsters he had killed and how many things headquarters had distributed.
Other ghostwriters would also share at the gatherings the dangerous and mysterious places they had discovered, as well as some troublesome monsters.
Those who are interested in ghostwriting will team up and then take action to eliminate the enemy, sharing the credit.
So, to put it simply, this gathering can be considered an annual meeting of a branch of the Demon Extermination Alliance, and it was quite lively.
When the time came for the gathering, Yang Cheng and Fei Zhongshu, brother and sister, did not disguise themselves. After verifying their sword-wielding tokens at the entrance, they went directly into the branch headquarters.
Although Fei Zhongshu and his sister were patrol officers, they also had waist badges indicating they were patrol officers, so others could not tell from the waist badges that they were patrol officers.
The branch headquarters was quite lively at this time, with many of the assistants chatting or making a lot of noise. However, some of the assistants looked rather grim, clearly because this year's profits were not good.
Most of the ghostwriters are cultivators from the Wild Fox Zen sect, belonging to the lower tier of cultivators. They don't have much power themselves and can only rely on a loose organization like the Demon Extermination Alliance.
As a result, Wu Tianqing also deducted their points, which made some of the lower-level ghostwriters even unable to make ends meet.
A moment later, Wu Tianqing finally came out of the inner hall, and the entire branch fell into silence.
