Chapter 201: Chapter 178 [Desiring to Lay Charges]

In the wee hours, a passenger plane flying from Yanjing to Dong hai smoothly landed at Dong hai Pudong International Airport and taxied towards the terminal designated by the airport.

Not far from the terminal, two off-road vehicles were parked, with Lv Canghai and the two trusted subordinates who had previously gone to Ao Xiang Villa waiting for the arrival of Yanhuang Organization Elder Xing Feng.

"An arrow once shot cannot be called back. At this point, if we don’t want to suffer punishment from above, we must firmly insist that the report is true and cannot let Elder Xing see through any trickery. Do you hear me?"

As the plane slid along the runway, Lv Canghai withdrew his gaze, turned his head to look at his two trusted subordinates, and spoke somberly after seeing the panic in their eyes.

"Understood!"

Upon hearing Lv Canghai’s reminder, the two Yanhuang Organization members instinctively nodded, then took a deep breath, their faces devoid of any semblance of panic, replaced by unwavering resolve.

Because they all knew that what Lv Canghai said was true.

From the moment Ye Wenhao appeared, they had already offended him.

They saw little to no chance to ask for Ye Wenhao’s forgiveness in order to avoid punishment from the Yanhuang Organization. Their only choice was to report exactly as stated in the document, accusing Ye Fan of killing Situ Haotian and Huang Qi, injuring Qi Qi and others, resisting arrest with violence, and attacking them.

By doing so, they wouldn’t be violating the regulations of the Yanhuang Organization and still had a slim chance of survival!

Before long, while Lv Canghai and the others waited, the plane came to a steady halt on the terminal, and the cabin door swung open.

Seeing this, Lv Canghai immediately got out of the vehicle with his two subordinates and quickly went to meet them.

As one of the elders of the Yanhuang Organization, Xing Feng held a transcendent status within the organization and was treated on a par with Provincial Governors. He and his two subordinates were seated in first class and were the first to disembark from the plane under the smiles of the flight attendants.

Click!

Despite being prepared to burn their bridges, when they saw Xing Feng’s grim expression, including Lv Canghai, the three Yanhuang Organization members felt a tremor in their hearts.

Because in their memory, Xing Feng was like Yama, absolutely ruthless when it came to internal cleanups, having crippled or killed more than a few Yanhuang Organization members.

"Elder Xing."

Although they were somewhat fearful, Lv Canghai and his men knew they couldn’t afford to slip up, so when Xing Feng and his entourage disembarked, Lv Canghai and his men’s faces showed no trace of terror as they greeted and paid their respects immediately.

"Get in the car, we’ll talk there."

Xing Feng’s gaze swept over Lv Canghai and his men like a blade, and without a trace of emotion, he spoke, "Director Lu, you ride with me and report directly in the car."

"Yes."

Lv Canghai felt a tightness in his chest and responded with full deference, while the other two Yanhuang Organization members secretly breathed a sigh of relief—they didn’t have to face Yama, Elder Xing, in person!

A minute later, as passengers began to disembark from the plane in an orderly fashion and board the airport shuttles, Xing Feng and his company got into the jeep prepared in advance by Lv Canghai.

"Elder Xing, this is the report about the Ao Xiang Villa case. Please review it."

As the car started, Lv Canghai, well aware of Xing Feng’s way of doing things, didn’t bother with pleasantries and immediately handed over the report he’d prepared ahead of time to Xing Feng.

Xing Feng emotionlessly took it and began reading without a word, while Lv Canghai sat next to him, not even daring to breathe heavily.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes...

As time passed, Xing Feng’s brows began to slightly arch upward.

"Director Lu, according to the report, your subordinate named Xu Feng covertly kept watch on Huang Qi and followed him to Ao Xiang Villa. He then discovered an internal conflict within the Dong hai Gang, where Situ Haotian killed Situ Chen, Fei Si, and Liu Tianjun. Ye Wenhao’s son suddenly appeared, injured ten Dong hai Gang members, entered the villa, killed both Situ Haotian and Huang Qi, and used a mind attack to injure Qi Qi, Feng Jing, and nine others. You arrived on time with another subordinate, entered the villa together, and tried to bring Ye Fan back for interrogation. When met with violent resistance from Ye Fan, you were forced to take action and destroyed his Dantian. Then, Ye Wenhao suddenly appeared and destroyed your Dantian."

After Xing Feng finished reading the entire report, he turned his head, narrowed his eyes, and stared intently at Lv Canghai as he asked word by word, "This report differs greatly, even totally contradicts, what Ye Wenhao told me—are you sure the content of this report is true?"

"Elder Xing, every word of the report is true. Please discern the truth!" Lv Canghai replied with an air of absolute certainty.

"Then tell me, why didn’t your subordinate named Xu Feng intervene in time to stop the situation but instead allowed it to escalate?" Xing Feng mercilessly pointed out the inconsistency.

"According to him, both parties were seeing red at the time and he feared his intervention would be futile. Moreover, our intelligence suggests that Hongwu Sect Elder Huang Qi might have entered the Innate Great Success Realm, and Xu wasn’t his match, which is why he secretly notified me," Lv Canghai explained cautiously.

"So that means, Ye Fan is even more formidable than Huang Qi?"

Xing Feng’s tone was slightly somber. As one of the five Great Elders of the Yanhuang Organization, he was aware that the disciple of the Evil Emperor Chu Xuanji was also named Ye Fan, and he had even specifically sought out ’Yan’, the power behind-the-scenes of the Yanhuang Organization, three years ago to request that ’Yan’ arrange for a member of the Yanhuang Organization to give Ye Fan special training, eventually a member named Qin Hai was the one who trained Ye Fan.

If the Ye Fan involved in this case was the disciple of the Evil Emperor Chu Xuanji, Ye Fan, then the situation couldn’t simply be described as thorny— even ’Yan’, as Huaxia’s number one powerhouse and controller of the Yanhuang Organization, had to show ample respect to the Evil Emperor Chu Xuanji!

"Yes, he possesses strength not inferior to the Innate Great Success," said Lv Canghai untruthfully. In his view, since Ye Fan’s Dantian had been destroyed by him, it would be impossible for Xing Feng to verify the truth anyway.

"Where is Xu Feng now?"

Xing Feng casually shifted the topic, discarding the possibility that the two Ye Fans were the same person. After all, in his memory, the disciple of Chu Xuanji had not yet reached the Great Perfection Realm three years ago, and it was impossible for him to become an Innate Great Success strong person in a mere three years!

"He is in the car up ahead," Lv Canghai said, with a hint of guilt.

"Once we arrive, we will interrogate him again."

Xing Feng said in a cold voice, then changing the direction of the conversation, he asked, "Also, based on the situation report just now, all the survivors in the villa suffered mental injuries and have become vegetative. And the villa’s surveillance system temporarily malfunctioned, leaving no recordings?"

"Yes, Elder Xing, this is the assessment from the Dong hai Armed Forces Hospital. As for the surveillance recordings, neither we nor colleagues from several other departments have found them," Lv Canghai responded.

"What about those Dong hai Gang members injured by Ye Fan outside the villa, what do they say?"

Xing Feng asked next, considering that those individuals were not martial artists, the interrogation was handed over to the police, and the situation report Lv Canghai just gave him did not include the interrogation results from the police.

"According to the information from the police, they were all the trusted subordinates of Qi Qi, the person in charge of the Dong hai Gang’s Nansu Branch. Qi Qi ordered them to stay at the villa entrance, to stop anyone who approached immediately. After Ye Wenhao’s son, Ye Fan, arrived, he wanted to enter the villa and ended up chopping off their limbs!" Lv Canghai explained without changing his expression.

"One last question, what happened with Ye Wenhao attacking you?"

Xing Feng asked again. This time, as he spoke, his brows were tightly furrowed, and his tone became heavier—Ye Wenhao’s involvement was the most crucial and complicated aspect of the case, and more importantly, by attacking and destroying Lv Canghai’s Dantian, it was a serious violation of the Yanhuang Organization’s rules!

"After Ye Wenhao arrived, he first asked what had happened. Before I had a chance to explain, his son made up stories, and after Ye Wenhao heard them, he believed them to be true and didn’t listen to my explanations before he attacked and destroyed my Dantian!"

Lv Canghai claimed with a mixture of truth and lies, "This can be vouched for by my two subordinates! Moreover, they were so frightened that they knelt down and begged Ye Wenhao to spare them!"

"Once we arrive, you two will individually interrogate Director Lu’s two subordinates, to verify the contents of the situation report, and I will confirm other details with other departments," Xing Feng arranged, having listened to Lv Canghai’s words.

"Yes, Elder Xing!"

The two Yanhuang Organization members who had accompanied Xing Feng immediately accepted the order.

"Sigh~"

Seeing that Xing Feng had temporarily believed his words, Lv Canghai inwardly breathed a sigh of relief, understanding that the reports from the other departments would focus on the events after the incident. And based on the foundation of that situation report just then, nothing would be revealed.

Thus, as long as his two subordinates resolutely confirmed the authenticity of the situation report, not only could he and his trusted subordinates evade punishment from the Yanhuang Organization, but they could also pin the crime on Ye Fan!

As Lv Canghai inwardly exhaled in relief, over at a luxurious suite in the Dong hai International Conference Center.

Ye Wenhao stood with his hands behind his back, standing in front of a floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the Bund’s buildings across the Huangpu River, lost in thought.

"Although Xiao Fan managed to kill Huang Qi in a critical moment by comprehending the Killing Move ’Qi Rushes to the Sky’ from ’Xuansha Fist’, derailing the development of the event from the Bai Family’s original plan, they can now turn the tables and frame Xiao Fan based on the current situation, forcing you to come to his rescue!"

On the sofa, Chu Ji, who had hurried over from the police station, patiently went over the details of the case and pondered, "Previously, not only did you attack and destroy Lv Canghai’s Dantian, you also threatened Guan Yi. In such a situation, if they succeed in framing, and you still try to rescue Xiao Fan with a tough stance, it will surely cause dissatisfaction among those higher-ups, and possibly ruin your political career!"

"I know."

Hearing Chu Ji’s words, Ye Wenhao didn’t turn around but continued staring at the Dong hai nightscape, saying indifferently, "The moment Guan Yi exposed my relationship with Xiao Fan, I guessed all of this."

"Then what will you do?"

Chu Ji’s face changed upon hearing this, she couldn’t understand why, if Ye Wenhao had already foreseen the course of events, he hadn’t intervened, and instead let the situation worsen.

"I didn’t disrupt or expose their plot, I just want to use this matter to tell everyone that Ye Fan is my son, Ye Wenhao’s son!"

Ye Wenhao spoke again, his voice was not loud, but it was exceptionally firm, "If anyone tries to wrong my son and frame him, I wouldn’t mind showing them that even King Yama has only one pair of eyes!!"
