At the same time, Duan Wensheng, skeptical, opened the official website of the Alien Group. At the top of the page that loaded, it was written: "Congratulations on the fourth Alien Order being presented to the hero of the capital!"
Long Yi looked at Duan Wensheng leisurely and jokingly said, "Master Duan, am I now qualified to bring the lady behind me into the venue?"
At this time, Duan Wensheng's face was burning. He brought his men to swipe their ID cards to enter the venue, originally intending to show off, but he didn't expect that the other person's status was far higher than his, and he became a clown instead.
The guests watching behind him were also amazed.
"Who is this young man? Could he be one of the elders of the Inhuman Group?"
"Have you ever seen such a young elder? I just checked the official website and it says this Alien Token is specially given to heroes in the capital."
"Tsk tsk, this young man is truly a hidden talent. Given time, his achievements will surely surpass Duan Wensheng's. However, once he leaves High Heaven Pavilion, he'll be in great danger from Duan Wensheng's revenge."
Ye Qingxue secretly waved her fists, her pretty face flushed with excitement. She whispered in Long Yi's ear:
"Honey, is this what it feels like to play the pig and eat the tiger? It's so cool, I feel my adrenaline rushing."
Long Yi laughed in his heart. This girl must have been very angry just now, and now she could indirectly vent her anger.
"It's not like he's playing dumb, after all, he was the one who started the fight, so he ended up losing more than he gained."
Long Yi took Ye Qingxue's hand and walked towards the auction venue, ignoring Duan Wensheng.
"Sorry, Mr. Long, please stay. Your VIP card is still with me." The guard apologized.
He was too nervous when he saw the Alien Order, so he only returned the Alien Order to Long Yi, but Long Yi's VIP card remained in his hands.
Long Yi said: "It's okay, please just send it to me."
The guard was about to jog to Long Yi with the VIP card in hand, but was stopped by an officer next to Ling Lei.
The officer stared at the VIP card in the guard's hand with an unnatural expression on his face, and a hint of heat appeared in his originally calm eyes.
"Please show me the VIP card in your hand, thank you." Although the officer's words were polite, they still gave people a sense of unquestionableness.
The guard looked at Long Yi inquiringly, after all, this VIP card belonged to Long Yi.
Long Yi nodded in agreement. He was a little surprised by the officer's reaction. After all, he didn't think there was anything special about this VIP card.
The officer who requested the VIP card was a colonel, just one step away from being a major general.
After the colonel took the VIP card, he carefully rubbed the right corner of the card with his fingertips, and after a moment, he tried hard to hold back the tears in his eyes.
Ling Lei was a little surprised at the colonel's reaction. The colonel was the chief military official in charge of the Lingxiao auction. Why would he have such a strong reaction to a VIP card?
He asked, "Colonel Liu, are you okay? Do you need to rest for a while? I'll have someone from High Heaven Pavilion maintain order at the scene."
Colonel Liu took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "I'm fine. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Young Master Ling."
Then, he walked towards Long Yi solemnly, and finally stopped one meter in front of Long Yi and saluted with a very standard military salute.
"Major Liu Yuecheng, commander of the 3rd Infantry Regiment stationed in Jinghai City, sends his greetings to the commander!"
Long Yi was stunned for a moment. He had never even been to a military camp, so how could he become a major leader?
Before he could ask, Liu Yuecheng shouted in a resounding voice, "Where is the Feng Camp?"
In the distance, every ten meters, a powerful voice could be heard: "From all of us in the Phoenix Battalion! Greetings to the Commander!"
After the Feng Battalion finished shouting in unison, they placed their rifles upright on their chests with their left hands and saluted with their right hands in a very standard military salute.
Above the entire mountain top, words of "Greetings to the Chief" echoed in the valley, stretching endlessly down along the ridge, full of momentum!
Faced with this exciting scene, Long Yi's blood was boiling in his heart, and he naturally returned a military salute to the other party. Although he had never had any military career, this military salute was extremely standard.
Duan Wensheng was filled with rage, and looking at the scene before him, he couldn't help but sneer, "Colonel, have you been deceived by Long Yi? I just checked his information, and there's no mention of a military career at all."
His subordinates echoed, "Master Duan, forging a false military rank to deceive public officials is a serious crime. This guy is finished!"
Colonel Liu glanced at Duan Wensheng, and when the latter met those murderous eyes, he felt a chill on his neck, as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and he immediately shut his mouth obediently.
After a long while, Long Yi lowered his right hand and shouted, "The ceremony is over!"
Colonel Liu lowered his right hand after hearing the order and returned the VIP card to Long Yi very respectfully, "Commander, your VIP card."
After Long Yi took the VIP card, he said seriously, "Colonel Liu, I just felt my blood boiling at that moment, so I returned your military salute. Actually, I am not a soldier."
Colonel Liu didn't show any surprise. "I know, but you holding this VIP card is like Commander Liao coming to the scene, so you deserve the military salute just now."
"This card... although it was given to me by Liao Jicheng, it seems to be just an ordinary platinum VIP card of Zhang Lingxiao Pavilion. Is there anything special about it?" Long Yi asked.
Colonel Liu said: "Look at the lower right corner of this VIP card, there is a word "Liao" engraved. It was engraved by Commander Liao himself. There are definitely no more than three things that Commander Liao personally engraved on them. They were all given by Mr. Liao to extremely important people.
I was trained by Commander Liao, and I know the rule of seeing the person in person. So, in my eyes, you holding this card is like Commander Liao being there in person."
Colonel Liu's eyes were already wet after he finished speaking. His mind was filled with Liao Jicheng's teachings and the glorious years they had spent together.
When Long Yi heard this, he felt a warm feeling in his heart. He originally thought that Liao Jicheng had just given him a card, but he didn't expect that it contained such a favor. It seemed that he had not misjudged him before.
At this time, Duan Wensheng, who was watching from afar, was dumbfounded. Who was this Long Yi? He originally thought that Long Yi's possession of the Alien Order was already his biggest trump card, but he didn't expect that he had such a close relationship with Commander Liao in the capital.
Ye Qingxue glanced at the time. There were still twenty minutes until the Lingxiao Auction started. She tugged at Long Yi's clothes and said, "Hubby, the auction is about to start. Let's go in now."
"Yeah." Long Yi said jokingly as he passed by Duan Wensheng while holding Ye Qingxue's hand:
"I originally wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but what I got in return was alienation. I won't pretend anymore. I am the number one brother in Beijing. I am laying my cards on the table."
