Chapter 691

~4 min read 704 words

"No, I heard it was opened by one of Liao Yuankai's Beast Taming Masters!"

"Then there's no problem!" Su Yang nodded and shouted loudly, "Liu Mengyun!"

Liu Mengyun pushed open the door and entered the office: "What is it, my lord?"

Su Yang ordered: "Take a team, shut down the casino that kidnapped Liu Li, lock up everyone there, charge them with illegal gambling and human trafficking… just pick any charge that fits and use it!"

At this stage, red-light districts and casinos are tacitly accepted.

During the Early stage of the Cataclysm, people still sold their children and daughters; the Huaxia Federation was overwhelmed and had no time to pursue them.

But the Huaxia Federation never abolished the laws from before the Cataclysm.

The actions of those casino owners can certainly be deemed illegal!

Liu Mengyun asked: "I heard they have ties to the Precious Pavilion. What if someone resists?"

"Then kill them. If there's any problem, I'll take the blame!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Without hesitation, Liu Mengyun obeyed Su Yang's order.

"Go!"

"Follow me!"

Liu Mengyun said to Fang Jing.

"Alright!"

Liu Mengyun found Tong Junhao, who was on duty tonight, and relayed Su Yang's order to him.

She couldn't possibly bring everyone back by herself.

"But the Brother's Casino seems to have ties to the Precious Pavilion!"

Tong Junhao voiced his concern.

"The city lord said, if there's any problem, he'll take responsibility!"

"Really?"

"Do I have any reason to lie to you?"

"Then there's no problem!"

Tong Junhao had heard of Su Yang's deeds.

He knew their city lord, Su Yang, was famously protective of his subordinates.

He once clashed with the Shengjing City Garrison just to defend his deputy.

You see, subordinates fear their superiors dumping blame and abandoning them like pawns.

In this regard, Su Yang's reputation was excellent!

The Shengjing City Garrison, by any measure, is far stronger than the Precious Pavilion in Mount Dajiao, isn't it?

So Tong Junhao no longer hesitated—he led thirty elite troops and three hundred regular city guards straight to the Brother's Casino with Liu Mengyun!

On the way, Tong Junhao learned the general course of events.

He didn't think Su Yang was overreacting; instead, he felt the Brother's Casino was foolishly defiant.

Night fell, and Mount Dajiao was plunged into darkness.

Only a few wealthy households had lights on.

This was prime time for casino business.

After more than ten minutes, Liu Mengyun arrived with her troops at the Brother's Casino.

Two Bronze-rank Beast Taming Masters standing at the casino entrance looked puzzled as they saw the Beast Taming Master unit approaching.

After all, Liu Mengyun's group looked anything but like customers—full of hostile energy.

One of the Bronze-rank guards asked: "What are you here for?"

Liu Mengyun had no intention of answering him; she ordered directly: "Surround the place! Don't let anyone escape!"

Over a hundred soldiers hesitated briefly, then followed Liu Mengyun's command.

They all knew the Brother's Casino's background—some had even gambled there themselves, and knew the hidden owner was linked to the Precious Pavilion.

But now, they couldn't afford to care.

"This is the Brother's Casino! Our boss is from the Precious Pavilion!"

"Enough nonsense!"

The moment Liu Mengyun spoke, the two casino guards turned into ice statues.

Liu Mengyun entered the casino with Tong Junhao, her cold gaze sweeping over everyone inside. She channeled her internal energy and shouted: "Everyone! Put your hands on your heads and get down on the ground!"

Liu Mengyun's voice exploded like thunder in the ears of everyone in the casino!

The previously noisy casino fell instantly silent.

"Madam officer, our casino…"

Liu Mengyun didn't even look at the man; white mist spread throughout the entire casino.

Everyone was frozen in that instant.

Tong Junhao looked at the ice statues and gave a bitter smile.

He finally understood—the rumors were right: Su Yang had a bad temper.

In fact, it was Liu Mengyun, Su Yang's deputy, who had the worst temper of all!

"Search the casino thoroughly. Gather all evidence, confiscate all gambling proceeds, and lock up every single casino employee!"

"Yes!"

Casino staff were easy to identify—most wore uniformed attire.

Even if some were wrongly arrested, it wouldn't matter much.
