Chapter 719: Admitting it is fine

At this time, a tall, long-haired woman standing on the right side of Du Lao scolded Xu Tian.

The woman's long hair was tied high into a ponytail, and she looked very capable. She had a delicate appearance, but because of her arrogant demeanor and aggressive aura, the woman seemed somewhat mean.

"You should also find a mirror and look at yourself properly to see if you are qualified to be against our Wuji Martial Arts Association? Others are afraid of you, but in our eyes, you are just a clown bluffing! Don't wait until you really anger us to regret it!"

"Regret it?" Xu Tian smiled lightly and waved at Zhong Yu beside him. "Zhong Yu, go teach her what it means to regret it."

"Yes."

Zhong Yu responded in a light tone. Before everyone could react, she took a step toward the long-ponytail woman and slapped her.

With a "pop" sound, half of the long-ponytail woman's face swelled up.

She covered her face in disbelief, a strong hatred and unwillingness flashing in her eyes.

But before she could speak, the little girl slapped her several more times on the face, directly beating her cheeks until they were swollen and she couldn't even speak.

The members of the Azure Wolf Hall who followed Xu Tian in were surprised to see how Xu Tian didn't give face to the Wuji Martial Arts Association.

However, they soon returned to calm. After all, given the Wolf King's personality, it was already considered very merciful not to have Zhong Yu kill the person directly.

"Just because of you, you dare to be disrespectful to our Wolf King?" Zhong Yu beat the long-ponytail woman until her nose was bruised and her face was swollen, then grabbed her collar and threw her outside, actually throwing the person out like a sack.

"Ah!" A scream came from the entrance of the conference room.

It seemed that the woman had fallen quite heavily.

"Wolf King!" The other members of the Wuji Martial Arts Association saw their companion thrown out and roared at Xu Tian angrily, "Don't go too far!"

"Go too far?" Xu Tian sneered. "On my territory, you must follow my rules. Or have I been away for too long, making you forget my methods, Ding?"

"Also, don't use Thorn to pressure me. When I led the brothers of the Azure Wolf Hall to attack Thorn back then, you small fries were probably not even able to touch the gate of the Wuji Martial Arts Association."

"Zhong Yu, whoever dares to be presumptuous again, throw them out together!"

The conference room was suddenly silent. The members of the Wuji Martial Arts Association looked at the Azure Wolf Hall members protecting Zhuang Shanchang with iron-blue faces, but for a while, they were really helpless.

Without Du Lao's order, they didn't dare to act without authorization.

Zhuang Shanchang had already prepared to take the blame for the Wolf King. If he could exchange his own sacrifice for the boss's safety, it was nothing.

But now, other members of the Azure Wolf Hall were blocking in front of him, united against the outside, giving him an urge to have tears in his eyes.

Being able to know such a group of loyal brothers and a leader who protected him, he could die without regrets.

"I said, you can't take him away," Xu Tian smiled faintly. "These subordinates of mine are hot-blooded; even I cannot influence the decisions they make."

"Heh... since you, the Wolf King, cannot control your subordinates, why don't you let our Wuji Martial Arts Association manage them for you!"

Xu Tian sneered upon hearing this: "Du Lao's hand reaches quite far. So you are determined to pursue this to the end?"

"As a manager of the Wuji Martial Arts Association, I naturally have to enforce the law impartially. Since Zhuang Shanchang has violated the rules, he should be punished. Don't say he is a small Azure Wolf Hall high-level; even the patriarch of the three great families must be treated equally!" Du Lao replied with a strong tone.

On Wuji Island, the use of thermal weapons was a taboo for everyone, even the three great families and other prestigious forces could not be an exception.

But Xu Tian was unmoved.

"Du Lao, Wuji Island does prohibit the use of thermal weapons, but it doesn't prohibit the use of models, right? It's just a simulation model, without even bullets; why do you have to be so nitpicky?" ===== CHAPTER 720 =====

"It's nothing." Xu Tian pressed hard on his temples, collecting his thoughts and trying his best to ignore the fragmented memories in his mind.

Those fragments were too familiar; they might just be his original memories.

But the current occasion was not appropriate for him to reminisce about them.

After adjusting his expression, Xu Tian looked at Elder Du and spoke again.

"I have only just returned, and there is still a lot of official business in the Azure Wolf Hall waiting for me to handle. If Elder Du has nothing important, then take your people and go back; I don't have time to chat with you."

"The Wolf King is indeed a straightforward person." Elder Du took in Xu Tian's change in demeanor, a flash of confusion appearing in his shrewd eyes.

Although he had heard of the Azure Wolf Hall leader Ding Yi before, he had never dealt with him, and today was his first time seeing this unruly Wolf King.

However, when he met Xu Tian's gaze, he always felt that this person looked somewhat familiar, as if he had met him before.

But Elder Du did not take this

matter to heart; after all, Ding Yi is the famous Wolf King who once dominated Wuji Island. Perhaps he had met him somewhere before the other party disappeared.

"I did come here with something to ask you." Elder Du spoke slowly, "I wonder if you, Wolf King, know of the Xiang family."

"Of course I do," Xu Tian replied.

The first person who offered him a helping hand after he arrived on Wuji Island was Xiang Yunfei of the Xiang family. If she hadn't taken him in, he likely would have been caught by the Patrol Squad long ago.

"It's good that you're willing to admit it." A cold light flashed in Elder Du's eyes. "I received a report that you once violated the regulations on Wuji Island at the Xiang family's place by privately using a firearm, a hot weapon. Tell me, did this really happen?"

Upon hearing Elder Du's words, the expressions of the Azure Wolf Hall members present all changed.

Everyone is clear about the rules on Wuji Island; the use of any hot weapons is not allowed here.

Moreover, this regulation was not set by the Wuji Martial Arts Association alone, but was a consensus reached by the three great families and other factions.

This rule has been in effect for nearly a hundred years, and any violator faces the death penalty, without exception.

The reason other countries in the world allow Wuji Island to exist is also because the rule here is that no hot weapons are allowed.

This regulation has greatly reduced the threat Wuji Island poses to the outside world, which is why there is the current situation of peaceful coexistence with other countries.

Therefore, people on Wuji Island have always adhered to this ironclad rule. Even during the peak of the Azure Wolf Hall's power, the Wolf King never violated the regulation against using hot weapons.

Of course, this is not because the Wolf King fears the Wuji Martial Arts Association and the three great families.

Rather, as a person of Wuji Island, he should uphold the stance of Wuji Island.

As for other rules unrelated to the survival of Wuji Island, he still disdains to follow them.

After entering the Azure Wolf Hall, Xu Tian also learned about the various regulations on the island and was naturally clear about the severity of privately using hot weapons.

Let alone that he is just a fake, even if the real Wolf King were here, he would absolutely not use a handgun.

But when Xu Tian first arrived on the island, the reason he took out a handgun was due to the pressure of the situation. Now that he is being confronted by Elder Du, he is naturally not stupid enough to admit it directly.
