#893 - Hard
About a quarter of an hour later.
The meeting hall, a scene of utter chaos, was deathly silent. A dozen or so people looked at each other, unable to utter a single word.
Moments before, Wei Changtian had finally left.
And of the six experts who had assassinated him yesterday, four were dead and two had been captured.
Faced with such a situation, the mood of everyone in the room at this moment was imaginable.
Half an hour ago, they were righteously indignant, vowing to fight Wei Changtian to the death, but when the latter actually appeared before them, not a single one dared to stand up.
They just watched as Wei Changtian broke into the government office, killed people, arrested people, and then left swaggeringly.
If they were to recall what they had just said, everyone would want to find a crack in the ground to hide in.
At first glance, this contrast seemed quite ridiculous.
Just as Wei Changtian said, it was as if everyone in this room was nothing more than hypocritical trash.
But in reality, this was not really a question of "hypocrisy."
Previously, under Su Qi's instigation, everyone's bold words must have been heartfelt, and most people did have the determination to sacrifice themselves for righteousness.
If they had really planned carefully and then faced Wei Changtian according to the plan, perhaps these people would have really dared to fight.
It was just a pity that Wei Changtian came too suddenly.
The sudden change caused a huge psychological gap for everyone.
To put it bluntly, although they had the determination, they were not ready.
In addition, Wei Changtian had intimidated everyone with thunderous methods as soon as he came up, which led to such a humiliating ending.
Of course, in any case, things had come to this point, and everything was irreversible.
From the moment Wei Changtian walked out of the government office unscathed, this originally very fragile alliance had already fallen apart and could no longer be reunited.
"Su... Lord Su, farewell."
After an unknown amount of time, someone finally bowed his head to Su Qi, and then quickly walked out of the meeting hall.
Then the others also left one after another. Some would say a word to Su Qi, but more did not say a word.
Perhaps everyone was too ashamed to say anything, or perhaps they didn't know what else to say.
In short, not long after Wei Changtian left, the originally "lively" meeting hall became empty, leaving only Su Qi standing in place, staring at the four corpses lying on the ground as if he had lost his soul.
Although he had long heard that Wei Changtian could kill a Rank 2 expert with one move when he was in Rank 6.
Although he had long known that three emperors had died at the hands of Wei Changtian.
Although he had long been aware that Wei Changtian had broken a million-strong army alone under Fengyuan City.
Although he had long been aware of all the "feats" Wei Changtian had done, and had never dared to underestimate such a "living Yama".
But at this moment, when Su Qi saw Wei Changtian take action for the first time, he finally truly realized how terrifying the latter was.
He finally understood how unscrupulous a master who could instantly kill a Rank 2 martial artist could be, and even more understood how unimaginable the consequences would be if this power was in the hands of an "evil person" like Wei Changtian.
"..."
His body trembled不停, and there was nothing but despair in his eyes.
Su Qi was not despairing for himself, but despairing for the fate of Daqian.
So... did he choose the wrong path?
On the other side, the mansion in the east of Linchuan City.
Just as Su Qi was陷入in deep self-doubt, Wei Changtian had already brought the two Rank 2 experts who had been beaten half to death to the place where the four members of the Nine Truths Sect were staying.
That's right, Wei Changtian did not take the mysterious man's warning to heart.
Well... that may not be accurate.
Strictly speaking, he would not be controlled by the enemy because of a mere hairpin.
After experiencing so much intrigue and life-and-death struggle, Wei Changtian had long understood a truth—
No matter what threat you face, you must never show the slightest obedience or weakness.
Although everyone objectively has weaknesses, if you show strength, then they are no longer your weaknesses.
Only when you show a flaw because of the enemy's threat, or even succumb to the threat, will they become your real weaknesses.
Therefore, now Wei Changtian not only wanted to continue to investigate the identity of the mysterious man, but also used more激烈的means than originally planned.
Dare to threaten me?
Go to your mother!
"Young Master, this..."
Soon, the four members of the Nine Truths Sect saw the two Rank 2 experts who had been "fighting side by side" with them yesterday.
Looking at the two people who were瘫软on the ground, not knowing whether they were dead or alive, and then looking at Wei Changtian's calm face, the four swallowed their saliva, and after a long while, they asked cautiously:
"Young Master, you just went to the government office?"
"Yes."
Wei Changtian did not explain too much, but solemnly吩咐said: "These two people will stay here with you for the time being. Be sure to guard them strictly and don't let them escape."
"At the latest tonight, I will send someone to审问them. At that time, you must cooperate well with this person."
"Yes, we understand!"
The four looked at each other, and then齐齐answered, not daring to ask any more questions.
And Wei Changtian did not intend to leave. He walked to the table and sat down, and then continued:
"Also, I need you to immediately send a message to Huo Tianyang, saying that I want to meet him."
"This..."
His eyes were stunned, and the four did not expect that Wei Changtian would suddenly make such a request.
It's not that it's strange that Wei Changtian wants to see Huo Tianyang.
After all, the four knew that Wei Changtian was investigating the mysterious man behind Huo Tianyang, so it was normal to start with Huo Tianyang himself.
It's just that Huo Tianyang is the leader of the Nine Truths Sect, a prominent figure in Daqian, how could they summon him with a single message?
What's more, Wei Changtian had directly revealed his identity, so how could Huo Tianyang投网?
"Young Master, we are not questioning you, it's just..."
After hesitating for a moment, the old man in yellow finally spoke cautiously.
He first试探said half a sentence, and seeing that Wei Changtian's expression did not change, he continued:
"It's just that Huo Tianyang is a suspicious person by nature. Moreover, the Nine Truths Sect is far away from Linchuan City. Unless we can give a reason why he must come, I'm afraid he won't come."
"There is naturally a reason."
Obviously, Wei Changtian had already thought about this matter, so as soon as the old man in yellow finished speaking, he directly replied:
"Kill son and奪運."
"Pass these four words to him, and tell him that I know all his secrets."
"If he wants to know why, come to Linchuan to see me."
