Chapter 666: Chapter 666: The Scapegoat!

Qu Yaowu’s reason for the furious roar was because he realized that almost all of his meridians throughout his body were destroyed.

As a Body Refining Saint Realm practitioner, having his meridians destroyed meant he was finished...

Zhou Yu said coldly,

"As a Martial Artist who held a high position in the Martial Cabinet and yet colluded with local forces to entrap others, getting rid of you is also to eliminate a threat for the Martial Cabinet and the Martial Arts World."

"You are not wronged at all."

"You..."

Phew!

Qu Yaowu spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

As the Deputy Director of the Hail State Martial Cabinet and a great expert of the Saint Realm, he had always held significant power from his lofty position.

But now, he had lost everything.

The huge disparity from falling from the clouds to the ground made him rage to the point of a heart attack, and before he could finish his sentence, he fainted.

Seeing this scene, Yan Zhengquan and his son were almost scared silly.

Zhou Yu looked towards Yan Kaining and said indifferently,

"Roll over here and kneel down."

Yan Kaining’s face was filled with terror, and he didn’t dare to approach, instead, he looked towards Yan Zhengquan for help.

"Dad..."

At this moment, Yan Zhengquan was also filled with horror.

His mind raced, and he said with a severe outward appearance but an inner timidity,

"You killed the Deputy Director of the Martial Cabinet, do you know how grave a crime that is?"

"If the Martial Cabinet finds out, they will never let you off."

He said this, and then his tone suddenly changed.

"However, if you let us go, we guarantee, we will not reveal a word about what happened here, and I will settle this matter for you."

"From now on, my Yan Family can treat you as an honored guest, offering you a large number of cultivation resources every year."

Zhou Yu let out a cold laugh.

"You and Qu Yaowu were in cahoots, entrapping others, and you came looking for trouble with me; I was only defending myself. Do you think I would be scared?"

"Besides, I have the Governor’s support; if the Martial Cabinet really wants to cause trouble, do you think they would target you or me?"

"Don’t you think your threat is laughable?"

Hearing what Zhou Yu said, Yan Zhengquan’s face turned extremely ugly.

He knew Zhou Yu was right.

With the Governor backing him, Zhou Yu was most likely safe, while the furious Martial Cabinet would look for a scapegoat, and without a doubt, among the Governor, the Martial Cabinet, and the Yan Family, it didn’t take much thought to realize that the Yan Family would definitely be the scapegoat.

Just a few days ago, the Yan Family had offended the Governor, and now they had offended the Martial Cabinet as well; even Yan Zhengquan couldn’t see any way out for his family!!!

Yan Zhengquan’s heart was in complete turmoil.

"You... what exactly do you want?"

Zhou Yu said coldly,

"What do I want? Wasn’t what I just said clear enough?"

"Don’t make me repeat myself."

Yan Zhengquan swallowed his saliva and looked towards his son.

"Kaining, go."

Yan Kaining was almost crying out of fear, crawling over to Zhou Yu, lying down with his face to the ground, his expression full of pleading, begging Zhou Yu to spare his life.

Zhou Yu couldn’t be bothered to say more.

He lashed out with a kick.

"Ah—"

Yan Kaining screamed as he was kicked away by Zhou Yu, rolling to the feet of Chen Feihu who stood in the distance.

"Go, take him, and get a copy of the surveillance footage here," said Zhou Yu indifferently.

After all, having disabled the Deputy Director of the Martial Cabinet, even if Zhou Yu were to ask Zhang Zheng to intervene, he would need to prepare evidence.

After witnessing everything that had just transpired, Chen Feihu now practically viewed Zhou Yu as a god in his heart.

Too awesome.

Kicking the father and son of the Yan Family, disabling the Deputy Director of the Martial Cabinet, and so young too.

If he were to cling tightly to such a powerful figure, wouldn’t his, Chen Feihu’s, future be smooth sailing?

At this moment, his mood had undergone a complete and earth-shattering change from before he entered.

Chen Feihu’s face was filled with excitement.

"Yes, Mr. Zhou, I’ll go do it right away."

Chen Feihu grabbed Yan Kaining and dragged him out directly.

Meanwhile, Zhou Yu’s gaze fell upon Yan Zhengquan.

"You, come over here, too."

Yan Zhengquan’s heart was full of frustration, but he dared not show it and could only obediently come over and kneel in front of Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu said indifferently,

"The Yan Family sent someone to Qin State to trouble Shui Tianyue from Huan Yu Corporation. What was the purpose?"

A flicker of panic that was hard to detect flashed in Yan Zhengquan’s eyes.

"This... I don’t know."

Slap!

Zhou Yu swung a slap directly at him.

Yan Zhengquan let out a scream and rolled away.

Teeth mixed with black blood continuously gushed from his mouth.

"Ah, ah, ah—"

Yan Zhengquan’s screams continued.

Zhou Yu said coldly.

"Don’t play tricks in front of me. This is your first warning, and it will be the last."

Yan Zhengquan, having been beaten, completely lost the courage to resist. Enduring the pain, he wailed,

"I’ll talk."

"Huan Yu Pharmaceutical, a subsidiary of Huan Yu Corporation, has launched three cosmetic medical products, reportedly with miraculous effects. Our Yan Family’s business also has a large portion in the cosmetic medical industry, so we wanted to find out about Huan Yu Pharmaceutical’s products..."

"I see."

Zhou Yu frowned.

"I’ve only heard about the products of Huan Yu Pharmaceutical. I haven’t even seen the finished products myself."

"How did you know about them?"

"Besides, Huan Yu Pharmaceutical is a newly established company. How did the Yan Family come to pay attention to it?"

Yan Zhengquan cried out,

"I really don’t know that. It was the Family Head who asked me to arrange for people to investigate."

Divine Touch sensed that this time, Yan Zhengquan was not lying.

Zhou Yu’s eyes twinkled with a sharp light.

This matter had to be clarified.

"I’ve told you everything I know, please, I beg you, spare us," Yan Zhengquan pleaded bitterly.

Zhou Yu said indifferently,

"Spare you? That’s possible."

"The condition is still the same as before, but now there’s one more person."

"The fixed price is 50 billion!"

Yan Zhengquan’s face turned extremely ugly, but he dared not bargain.

He gritted his teeth and said,

"Fine, I’ll pay."

After saying that, he immediately took out his cell phone to make a call for the transfer.

Just then, a middle-aged man in a suit ran in.

After seeing the scene here, he was completely stunned.

Then, he immediately ran over to Zhou Yu.

"Mr. Zhou, hello, I am the secretary of Governor Zhang. My surname is Mao."

"Secretary Mao, hello."

Secretary Mao hurriedly spoke,

"Mr. Zhou, by Governor Zhang’s orders, I’ve come to ask you to save Uncle Liu."

Zhou Yu was taken aback.

"What happened to Uncle Liu?"
