Chapter 701: Don't Let Him Die Too Easily
Plead guilty?
Xu Tian raised his eyebrows slightly and sneered in his heart.
Pleading guilty was just an excuse; coming here specifically to show off was their purpose.
Just as the elders filed in, Zhong Ling and Jiang Chuan also quietly came in from outside and stood at the door of the office.
Especially Zhong Ling, who had been observing every move of Xu Tian since she entered the door.
For her, this was a good opportunity. If he was an impostor, he would definitely reveal flaws.
"My Lord, you've been away from headquarters for such a long time, and you haven't contacted us during this period. Let me ask, what have you been doing during this time?"
Seeing Xu Tian not speaking, the Fourth Elder decided to strike first.
"Do I have to report to you what I'm doing?" Xu Tian replied coldly.
"My Lord, you misunderstood, I'm just concerned..." The Fourth Elder lowered his eyes, showing a very disciplined appearance.
"Concerned?" Xu Tian slammed the table hard and threw a stack of photos at the Fourth Elder. "Zhou Lao Si, is this what you call concerned?"
Xu Tian's sudden attack shocked everyone present.
Especially Zhong Yu, Jiang Chuan, and others, who looked at Xu Tian in disbelief.
Now the elder council had controlled 70% of the Azure Wolf Hall's power. Xu Tian was going to turn against them so quickly; was he already prepared?
"My Lord, what are you doing?" Zhou Lao Si didn't expect Xu Tian to suddenly attack either. He hid the cold light in his eyes and lowered his head slightly to look at the photos at his feet.
The protagonist of the photos was Xu Tian, and the shooting location was also yesterday.
They were followed on their way to the arena.
"I still want to ask what you want to do?" Xu Tian snorted coldly. "You wouldn't know anything about the actions of that cheap son of yours, right?"
Zhou Lao Si's eyelids twitched, but his face was innocent.
"What are you talking about, My Lord? I don't have any cheap son. You didn't recognize the wrong person, did you?"
"No?" Xu Tian gestured to Zhong Yu. "Bring Zhou Mingrui up."
"Yes!" Zhong Yu immediately walked toward the outside of the office.
After coming out of the arena yesterday, Xu Tian called Zhong Yu to catch Zhou Mingrui, who was lying in the hospital ICU, back.
Zhong Yu listened to Xu Tian very much and went to execute it without even asking for the reason.
Zhong Yu didn't go out for long before a mobile hospital bed was pushed in.
The person on the bed was wrapped like a mummy, and his legs were still in plaster. It was Zhou Mingrui, who had been severely taught a lesson by Zhong Yu yesterday.
After seeing Zhou Mingrui, the Fourth Elder flashed a cold light in his eyes, but it was well hidden by him immediately.
"Zhou Lao Si, you don't recognize this person?" Xu Tian said.
"Never seen him before." The Fourth Elder replied without changing his expression.
"Really?" Xu Tian pretended to be surprised. "This person used your name to be arrogant and domineering, spoke rudely to me, and it has nothing to do with you?"
The fact that Zhou Mingrui was Zhou Lao Si's illegitimate son was almost an open secret.
This Zhou Lao Si was really a ruthless character; he could deny it without changing his expression even when his own son was in front of him.
"This bastard actually dared to use my name to pretend to be powerful! I think he really doesn't want to live anymore!" Zhou Lao Si immediately looked at the two Azure Wolf Hall members who pushed the hospital bed in.
"You send him back to the hospital for treatment first, and after the injury is healed, send him to the headquarters' dungeon to be interrogated properly!"
The two members were at a loss. One was the Wolf King, the other was the Fourth Elder. Who should they listen to...
"Wait." Xu Tian waved his hand. "The Fourth Elder has a kind heart. This person took the initiative to provoke us in the private room where we were eating, not only insulting Jiang Chuan and Zhong Yu but also speaking rudely to me. Now you still want to send him for treatment?"
"My Lord, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Although this kid is indeed hateful, he didn't cause any serious consequences. You just treat it as meeting a mad dog and don't be general with him."
"Not be general with him?" Xu Tian's tone became even colder. "I have never believed in cause and effect; I only know that I must repay my grudges, and those who go against me will die!"
"You..." Zhou Lao Si's facial muscles twitched, trying his best to endure the anger that was about to erupt.
"Zhong Yu, according to the rules of the Azure Wolf Hall, how should this person be handled?"
"Insulting the Wolf King, kill without mercy, implicate the nine clans!" Zhong Yu's crisp voice sounded in the office.
"Fourth Elder, you are also an old man of the Azure Wolf Hall, how could you forget the most basic rules?" Xu Tian stared at Zhou Lao Si.
"Subordinate didn't forget, subordinate just feels that you just returned, My Lord, it's not appropriate to cause extra trouble." Zhou Lao Si almost squeezed this sentence out of his mouth through gritted teeth.
"What if I insist on causing extra trouble?" Xu Tian asked back.
"My Lord, do you really want to see blood?" Seeing Xu Tian insist on pursuing it, Zhou Lao Si's emotions miraculously calmed down.
"For the sake of the Fourth Elder, I can also not pursue it. Of course, the premise is that he is your son." Xu Tian smiled faintly. "Otherwise, why should I show mercy to an irrelevant person?"
Zhou Lao Si was silent.
Although everyone present was clear that Zhou Mingrui lying on the hospital bed was his son, if he didn't admit it, even the Wolf King couldn't do anything to him.
Because he was clear that once he admitted Zhou Mingrui's identity, he would also have to bear the crime of disrespecting the Wolf King. The Wolf King had just returned, the situation wasn't clear, and Zhou Lao Si didn't intend to tear his face with him immediately.
"My Lord, don't joke. How could I give birth to such a son who doesn't distinguish right from wrong." Zhou Lao Si still refused to admit it.
"Fine, then this person has nothing to do with you, then I have no worries." Xu Tian originally wanted to involve Zhou Lao Si through Zhou Mingrui, but he didn't expect Zhou Lao Si not to take the bait at all.
"Zhong Yu, I'll leave this person to you, don't let him die too easily." Xu Tian gave Zhong Yu a wink.
Don't look at this little girl as harmless and obedient; in fact, her methods were even more cruel than the unsmiling Zhong Ling.
"No problem, I will definitely make him regret coming to this world." A sweet smile appeared on Zhong Yu's face, but anyone who knew her knew that behind this smile represented cruelty and bloodiness.
Jiang Chuan had once seen this little girl pick the tendons of a traitor's hands and feet without changing her expression, and then pour chili oil on them.
"He should be very regretful that he wasn't beaten to death by you directly yesterday." Jiang Chuan followed Zhong Yu toward the mobile hospital bed. He also liked torturing people.
"Unreasonable! Daring to speak rudely to the leader of our Azure Wolf Hall, no need for you to take action, I will solve this beast today to act for heaven!"
Before Zhong Yu and Jiang Chuan could walk over, Zhou Lao Si rushed to Zhou Mingrui's hospital bed first, raised his palm, and slapped it hard on his crown.
In an instant, everyone heard a crisp sound of skull cracking. ===== CHAPTER 702 =====
