Chapter 517
"This aura, it's a Rank 9 Martial Saint!"
"That old guy Wang Zhen really did come looking for trouble!"
Xu Jingming's gaze flickered.
The lightning dragon wings behind him unfolded, and his whole body turned into a golden phantom, quickly flying out of the training room.
At this time, the Awakened at the entire Leiting Martial Hall headquarters were also one after another feeling uncertain because of this voice.
"This voice! It's a high-rank Awakened!"
"It must be an Awakened above Rank 8! Even a Rank 9 Martial Saint!"
"He's here specifically for the Thunder Emperor! How did he provoke such an existence?"
"..."
Swish, swish, swish!
Figures one after another curiously rushed toward the direction where the voice came from.
"Wang Zhen? Why did he come to our place?"
Vice Hall Master Hu Hu Jinyu in the villa naturally also sensed Wang Zhen's aura.
While puzzled, a gloating smile also appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"Regardless of why he came, just listening to this tone, it should be a good show to watch."
The next moment, Hu Hu Jinyu's figure vanished from the villa instantly.
At this time, in the mid-air in front of the Leiting Martial Hall headquarters.
A tall, burly man was suspended there, his whole body wreathed in Qi and blood.
The aura he radiated casually made people feel a powerful sense of oppression, as if even their blood was about to coagulate.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
At this time, three figures flew over from the distance one after another, standing still in the air not far in front of Wang Zhen.
They were precisely Su Su Qingli, Hu Hu Jinyu, and Gu Ming, the three Hall Masters and Vice Hall Masters of the Leiting Martial Hall.
"The Hall Masters have arrived!"
Quite a few Awakened had already gathered on the ground, and seeing Su Su Qingli and the others arrive, they also subconsciously raised their heads to look at the sky.
"Teacher."
At this time, Xu Jingming also flew over, respectfully suspending himself at a position to the rear left of Su Su Qingli.
"Xu Jingming!"
Wang Zhen, not far away, saw this and immediately glared, his violent Qi and blood surging wildly toward Xu Jingming!
"Wang Zhen! What are you doing?!"
Su Su Qingli's willow brows stood upright, and the aura belonging to a Rank 9 Dharma Saint erupted!
With a wave of her jade hand, terrifying dark cyan lightning flashed, isolating all the Qi and blood outside.
"Xu Jingming killed my beloved son Wang Mang; I can't even punish him a little?"
Wang Zhen's eyes were scarlet, roaring like a wild beast.
As soon as these words were spoken, the Awakened on the ground were all in an uproar!
"Damn! What's the situation? The Thunder Emperor actually killed the descendant of a Rank 9 Martial Saint?"
"Wasn't the Thunder Emperor still competing in the preliminary rounds a while ago? How could he have gone to kill Wang Mang?"
"Who knows, but this is big news! No wonder someone would come directly to the headquarters."
"..."
Immediately, gazes with different emotions one after another looked at Xu Jingming in mid-air.
There was curiosity, confusion, and also gloating...
Wang Dong, Xia Lan, and Lin Hui were also in the crowd on the ground, but the former's expression was stunned, while the latter was full of worry.
"Wang Mang contacted a killer organization without authorization and attacked Xu Jingming's family; you can't possibly not know about this, right?
Xu Jingming killing Wang Mang was entirely out of anger.
If there hadn't been a prior cause, such a consequence wouldn't have appeared in the end.
Therefore, all of this was brought upon by your son himself."
Su Su Qingli had already prepared her rhetoric for this, and she replied with a crisp voice.
"What?!" Wang Zhen doubted if he had heard wrong.
He had originally thought that no matter what, it was Xu Jingming who killed his son.
Although Su Su Qingli wouldn't go so far as to arrest him on the spot, surface-level criticism was definitely unavoidable.
But he hadn't expected Su Su Qingli to be so biased toward her student!
"Holy crap! So it was Wang Mang who attacked the Thunder Emperor first!"
"So that's how it is; I said, how could the Thunder Emperor attack for no reason."
"I know this guy Wang Mang; he's been a playboy since a long time ago.
I had long predicted he would cause a huge disaster, but I didn't expect him to bully the Thunder Emperor!"
"..."
Family can be said to be the reverse scales of all Awakened!
After Su Su Qingli's explanation, the Awakened on the ground suddenly realized.
But understanding is one thing; if it were them, they definitely wouldn't dare to lay a hand on the descendant of a Rank 9 Awakened...
"Even if my son was in the wrong first, it's not Xu Jingming's place to take private action; the Security Bureau will handle it!"
Wang Zhen knew he was in the wrong, snorted coldly, and turned to criticize Xu Jingming's wrongdoing.
"I return this sentence to you exactly as it is."
Su Su Qingli's indifferent voice sounded, her tone filled with the majesty and seriousness of a Leiting Martial Hall Master:
"Xu Jingming's matter will be handled by the Security Bureau; it's not your place to manage it. Or are you saying you want to provoke the majesty of my Leiting Martial Hall?"
Crackle, crackle—
Brilliant and violent dark cyan lightning wreathed around Su Su Qingli's body, radiating terrifying energy fluctuations.
Although Vice Hall Master Hu Hu Jinyu didn't get along well with Su Su Qingli, under these circumstances, he naturally wouldn't be stupid enough not to listen to Su Su Qingli's orders.
So, together with Gu Ming beside him, he erupted his Awakened ability to face the outside together!
Under the aura oppression of three Rank 9 Awakened, Wang Zhen's expression suddenly changed.
"Fine, fine, fine! It seems you are determined to be biased toward Xu Jingming!
Just wait! I will report this matter to the National Council and see how they handle it!"
Now that things had reached this point, Wang Zhen also knew that continuing to entangle would be meaningless, not to mention he couldn't fight three.
So, after fiercely glaring at Xu Jingming, he withdrew his gaze and quickly flew away from this place.
"Wang Zhen, just left like that?"
"I always feel that this Rank 9 Martial Saint is a bit cowardly."
"Cowardly my ass! With Hall Master Su and the others here, what else can Wang Zhen do besides talk tough?"
"That's true; if it were another Rank 8 Grandmaster who came, they would probably have been slapped away long ago."
"But speaking of which, Hall Master is really biased toward the Thunder Emperor; such a big matter, and she didn't even have a hint of blame."
"..."
Seeing Wang Zhen leave in such an anticlimactic way, the Awakened on the ground were all somewhat emotional.
The treatment Xu Jingming received from Hall Master Su Su Qingli seemed to be excessively good.
"I'm really envious; if only I could have the treatment of killing a Rank 9 Martial Saint's descendant without being blamed."
"Heh, then you'd need to possess an SS-rank Awakened ability and become Hall Master Su's student.
Besides, do you really think a Martial Saint's son is that easy to kill?
It's only the Thunder Emperor who can easily do this."
"That's true, but this Thunder Emperor is really ruthless; he kills when he says he will, leaving no room at all."
