The Emperor of the Three Realms

chapter 154

The three directors once again gathered at the Dragonteeth Guard headquarters.    

Shangguan Yi did not say anything, but the words Zhou Kai and Qi Tiannan almost all had the same sentence, the same version under different circumstances.    

And the essence of the conflict all pointed to one person in the Dragon Tooth Guard – Lu Wuji.    

“Director General, Lu Wuji is the nephew of Vice Director Yang. His reputation has never been so good. Elder Ning and Vice Head Shi were furious over the same person. They say that he twisted the truth and turned justified self-defense into a crime. Not only that, he tore through Elder Ning's records and nearly beat up the person sent by Vice Head Shi. Wouldn't you say that this Lu Wuji greatly underestimated all laws and regulations?”    

At this moment, Shangguan Yi finally understood why Elder Fei was so angry. If it was him, Shangguan Yi, who was captured and thrown into the Black Subterranean Space bafflingly, he would also be furious and most likely his circumstances were even worse than theirs.    

“Do you know who Lu Wuji caught?” Shangguan Yi investigated.    

“I'm not sure, Elder Ning says he is his friend.”    

“Shi Xiaoyao also said she is her friend, but she did not mention her name.”    

Shangguan Yi sighed, “His name is Jiang Chen.”    

“Jiang Chen?” The two vice directors looked at each other, not knowing what to do. Their status was high and rarely asked general matters. They had never noticed Jiang Chen's name either.    

Who is this Jiang Chen? Why do three of the four great sites protect it?” Qi Tiannan's facial expression suddenly changed. “Can he be a disciple of the Precious Tree Sect?”    

When Shangguan Yi heard the three words “Secte Precious Tree”, his face suddenly turned deathly pale. “If this is the case, then Lu Wuji has really caused an incredible disaster!”    

Right now, one of his subordinates came to report, “Director, the first Dragon Tooth Guard member to appear has arrived.”    

“Send them in.” Shang Guan Yi said hurriedly.    

Tian Shao's men, the first people to handle Jiang Chen's case, trembled as they walked in. Facing three directors at the same time was something they had never experienced before. They can barely stand up straight.    

“You're there, don't worry. I've got some questions to ask you. I don't care what pressure or threat you face before, nothing relevant. I'll be the judge for you. All you need to do is retell the issue in full. Don't color it with the slightest bit of your personal feelings, I want the truth!”    

”Shangguan Yi spoke with a bit of calmness.    

“Did you hear that? General director wants truth.”    

The teeth of the Dragonteeth Guard crackled as they calmed down with great difficulty. The captain finally opened his mouth. “The event occurred on the road where the South Palace held its grand exhibition. At that time…"    

The captain recovers the events that have happened. However, they had not seen the events that had occurred before they arrived at the scene.    

They could only retell what had happened after they arrived, including Lu Wuji's blatant interference, the forced cuts, Commander Tianshao's strong argument on fair grounds, etc. All of this was poured like beans spilled from a bamboo container.    

When they heard that Jiang Chen had beaten up a disciple of the Northern Palace, the three directors looked at each other and they were all immersed in their thoughts.    

Now that the situation had developed to this point, the resemblance of some ideas had vaguely appeared. A disciple of the Northern Palace, Lu Wuji, as well as Vice Director Yang behind Lu Wuji were all people on the same frontline, and all of them were people from the first prince.    

In this way, the seemingly simple case turned out to have implications that led to the first prince?    

“Director General, this case seems too difficult to handle.” Qi Tiannan was a little depressed.    

“I don't think there's anything difficult in this, just handle it impartially.” Zhou Kai's tone of voice was firm.    

They had all heard of the reputation of the Northern Palace. Killing, robbing, and committing robberies on the street, all these were things the Northern Palace liked to do.    

“Then, where are the witnesses and evidence now?” Shang Guan Yi asked.    

“Witness has been detained, while General Lu has taken all the evidence.”    

Shangguan Yi's face darkened and then asked the Dragon Tooth Guard, “How is Jiang Chen now?”    

“Commander Tian Shao arranged for him to be put in a single holding cell, but we are afraid that General Lu has already received the order to revoke the title of Commander Tian Shao now. We are not too sure of the actual situation.”    

Out of the three vice directors of the Dragon Tooth Guard, Zhou Kai was in charge of financial affairs, Lu Wuji's uncle, Yang Zhao, was in charge of human resources, and he was in charge of the, and Qi Tiannan was in charge of all sorts of administrative affairs.    

When talking about Yang Zhao, he understood the power of rapture and dismissal for the commander level and below, and he also had a lot of power.    

Other than the generals to be personally appointed and dismissed by general director Shangguan Yi, Yang Zhao did have the power to dismiss a commander.    

When Shangguan Yi's mind got to this point, he hurriedly said, Old “Zhou, I want you to immediately travel to the Black Underground Room and take out my Dragon Tooth Guard emblem. Stop Lu Wuji and protect Jiang Chen at all costs. If Lu Wuji dared to act out of bounds, capture him by force. Ignore everyone pleading on his behalf!”    

"Understood!" Zhou Kai accepted his order.    

“Qi Tua, take the people with you and bring important witnesses. If anyone is blocking you, press him. Don't let anything happen to the witness.”    

Thinking that a simple matter would have something to do with the four big sites and dragging everything down involved open competition and veiled strife among the princes. Shangguan Yi did not dare to lower his guard.    

No matter which way he leaned, he would definitely offend one side. The only thing they could do now was to deal with this matter impartially and restore the original truth.    

This is the only way that they side with common sense and are not condemned by the public.    

However, from the reactions of all parties, Shangguan Yi also guessed that it was likely eighty percent true that the Northern Palace disciples had attempted a robbery.    

The Black Underground Room.    

Lu Wuju was sitting cross-legged with a very comfortable expression, as if he was a hunter toying with his prey and enjoying the psychological sensation of this deviant mindset.    

As for Tian Shao, he sat cross-legged on the other side of the Black Underground Room.    

Even though Lu Wuji was domineering, he still knew that he could not use force before he received the removal order. If he were to use force to take down Tian Shao, then he would really have already crossed the line.    

Even if he asked his uncle to wipe his ass, this would be a difficult problem to overcome if reported upwards. In any case, interfering in this case is an out-of-bounds step.    

He was not in a hurry at the moment either. Instead, he enjoyed this feeling more. He was like someone who received a precious sword and Tian Shao as well as Jiang Chen were still waiting for the slaughter.    

It was a pity that the two stubborn children still refused to cry out in pain even at this moment. This made his spirit feel a little less.    

Therefore, he continued to use words to provoke Jiang Chen.    

“Jiang Chen, I heard you have some beautiful women among your subordinates. I'll look after him for you after you die. It says that you also have some men. Heh heh, our Skylaurel Kingdom also has a slave market. It would be like recycling garbage if I sold it later.”    

“And you, Tian Shao, I heard you have an eight-year-old daughter? And a very beautiful wife? Did she?"    

Tiger eyes Tian Shao glared as he snorted, “Shameless little villain! The sky watches over the actions of men. Lu Wuji, use your power to oppress others. You have absolutely no respect for the law, sooner or later heaven will take care of you!”    

"Heaven? Haha, I am the heaven here, what is the importance? Heaven number two and earth number three. I, Lu Wuji, am the boss!”    

Jiang Chen sat down cross-legged and did not say a word. When he heard these words, his eyes suddenly glared and let out a terrifying streak of cold light. “Lu Wuji, paradise retaliation is slow but sure. You defy heaven and underestimate the law, heaven will give you justice.”    

As the son of the Celestial Emperor in his past life, the words Jiang Chen could not hear the most were foolish words blaspheming the heavens and earth.    

“Langit will give me justice?” Lu Wuji laughed out loud. “Even if there is such a day, I am afraid you will not be able to see it. Let me tell you what heaven is. Life is heaven. To die is to be a ghost. Jiang Chen, you will soon become a ghost. The angel of death will come to you soon.”    

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, “Angel of death? Very good, when you are greeted by them someday, be sure to greet them for me.”    

A killing intent exploded on Lu Wuji's face. “Son, you faced your death and are still stubborn.”    

Footsteps sounded from outside at this moment. It was the person Lu Wuji had sent to file the removal order earlier. He entered with hasty footsteps, and a transfer order in his hands.    

Lu Wuji was overjoyed and raised it in his hand. “Tian Shan, open your dog's eyes and take a good look. The removal order is here. From now on, you are no longer a commander in the Dragonteeth Guard. Put down your commander's shoulder cover, remove your Dragon Tooth Guard uniform, and don't resist arrest!”    

Tian Shan turned his head back and shouted, “God, why are you so unfair to let such a petty criminal rule? I, Tian Shao, with a firm and unyielding character, will be insulted by such petty criminals on this day!”    

Jiang Chen on the other hand, spoke weakly, “Commander Tian, the laws of real nature and victory or defeat have not been decided at this point. Come here and we'll go forward or back together.”    

In fact, this Black Underground Space could not trap Jiang Chen at all.    

With Jiang Chen's current level of training, he would be able to take care of himself even if he met Liu Can of the first level spirit realm.    

Although these Dragon Tooth Guards were an army of wolves and tigers, in the end they were only true qi realms.    

If he really wanted to become an enemy, he had an eighty percent chance of breaking free.    

Lu Wuji coldly laughed continuously, “A caged animal made his death struggle? Jiang Chen, do you know what I enjoy the most is admiring the scenery of the prey in his death struggle?”    

Jiang Chen laughed out loud, “Lu Wuji, I don't know if I made my death fight. One thing I believe is that I, Jiang Chen, will definitely not die before you.”    

“Dreams of an idiot.” Lu Wuji grimaced with laughter and suddenly shouted, “Kill, with legitimate authority, the repeated perpetrator of Jiang Chen in his attempted prison break!”    

Lu Wuji was a cruel person. He wanted Jiang Chen dead and he did not even want to wait until the final decision of the case. He wanted Jiang Chen dead now.    

Therefore, jailbreak is certainly the best reason.    

Turning off the jailbreaker is a very logical and reasonable thing, it can be done perfectly. Lu Wuji was very good at this matter and he had no psychological pressure at all.    

"Kill!"    

The Dragon Tooth Guard that Lu Wuji had brought attacked like wolves and tigers.    

"Stop!"    

A furious and shocked roar sounded from the outskirts of the Black Dungeons at this critical moment. “Stop, all of you! You useless piece of trash, do you want to die!?”    

This voice was like lightning in the blue sky that resounded throughout the Black Subterranean Space, shaking so that the Dragon Tooth Guard's eardrums buzzed. Heaven and earth shook and they could barely stand up. They staggered and trembled, unable to hold the weapon firmly in their hands.    

In the next moment, the number two figure of the Dragon Tooth Guard, Vice General Zhou Kai, came in with a great presence along with a group of elites.    

The heart that jumped down Zhou Kai's throat returned to his chest as soon as he saw no sight of flesh and blood flying everywhere.    

Thankfully, disaster was averted. There is still time to save everyone!
