Chapter 314 – Crazy Person (2)
“Greetings, Commander!”
“Greetings, Commander!”
A series of shouts came from outside the room.
The furious Dai Shizhong perked up and looked at the door.
Su Jingxing also stopped thinking and turned to look.
Before long, a muscular man who was nearly two meters tall with a fierce aura and a bare head walked into the room with thumping footsteps.
“Greetings, Commander!”
“Greetings, Commander!”
Dai Shizhong and his subordinates shouted respectfully at the bald man.
“Senior, this is Commander Teng Hejing, the Commander of City Governance of the Martial Suppression Office.”
.
Dai Shizhong introduced him to Su Jingxing.
Then, he also introduced Su Jingxing to Teng Hejing. “Commander, this senior is the one who discovered and killed the barbarian warrior in good time.”
“Mm.”
As soon as the burly and imposing Teng Hejing entered the private room, Lu Xinyan and Lu Xincheng shrank their necks and retreated to a corner, not daring to make a sound.
The man who had bitten Jiang Jiuyang to death and his wife also kept absolutely silent.
Teng Hejing’s aura was too dense and domineering.
Without any restraint, he was like a ferocious tiger that strode down the mountain, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws
Even though they were standing still, their hearts and bodies were trembling.
But this did not affect Su Jingxing at all.
Teng Hejing’s physique was indeed very strong. Clearly, he had cultivated a special body-tempering martial art.
With such physique, the strength of his blood and Qi alone could rival a sixth-grade martial artist.
Perhaps, like Su Jingxing previously, he had reached the limits of the human body!
“Commander Teng, what do you think of the barbarian warrior’s corpse?”
Without any pleasantries, Su Jingxing went straight to the point.
Teng Hejing did not answer immediately. Instead, he first examined Jiang Jiuyang’s corpse. Then, he waved at Dai Shizhong and ordered calmly, “Bring everyone out of the club first.”
“Yes,” replied Dai Shizhong respectfully. He instructed his soldiers and generals to bring the Xin siblings, the man and his wife who had escaped death as well as Jiang Jiuyang’s subordinates away.
Everyone left the club.
Teng Hejing faced Su Jingxing and cupped his fists respectfully. “May I ask if you are in the third-grade, Senior?”
“So what if I am, and so what if I’m not?” Su Jingxing smiled calmly.
“If you aren’t a third-grade martial artist, then the only way for me to deal with the barbarian warrior’s corpse is to incinerate it. The matter of Jiang Jiuyang hiding a barbarian will be filed away,” Teng Hejing replied rigidly.
Su Jingxing raised his eyebrows. “And if I am one?”
“If you are a third-grade martial artist, I would like to be so bold as to ask you for a favor,” said Teng Hejing respectfully.
Su Jingxing narrowed his eyes. “What favor?”
“To get rid of a lair of scourges in Anyang City,” Teng Hejing replied calmly. “To be honest, this isn’t the first time I’ve discovered barbarian corpses in the city. Before this, I’ve already seen two of them. They were both wearing mechanical battle armor and were fully equipped when they were alive. The person controlling them is as powerful as Jiang Jiuyang. Their organizations aren’t small nor big, but they both have a certain amount of areas they manage.”
“And then?” asked Su Jingxing coolly.
“It’s extraordinary for barbarian warriors to be wearing mechanical battle armor to begin with. The appearance of one such case is shocking enough, let alone two. Including this time, there are three cases. As for those hiding in the dark, I don’t know how many there are.
“As the Commander of City Governance of Anyang City’s Martial Suppression Office, I began an investigation immediately after discovering these matters. I didn’t do it openly, but secretly. In the end, I discovered that including Jiang Jiuyang, everything behind the scenes all point to a faction.
“The Jia Family!”
“The Jia Family is a local martial arts family with a legacy of more than 200 years. They are deeply rooted in Anyang City and are involved in various industries. They are powerful and influential.
“Let’s not talk about the things in secret. On the surface alone, the Jia Family has four fourth-grade experts and as many as 20 fifth-grade ones.
“The background of the barbarian warriors’ issue pointed to the Jia Family behind the scenes, so all the more I didn’t dare to act rashly. I only reported the incident on the surface and continued to investigate in secret. In the end, I discovered that the Jia Family was related to a certain faction in the capital. Or rather, the Jia Family was controlled by a large faction in the capital.
“In order to support the Jia Family to hold down the fort in Anyang City, the faction in the capital sent a third-grade expert over.

“The favor I want to ask from you is to hold back this third-grade expert!”
Teng Hejing stared at Su Jingxing with burning eyes.
Su Jingxing raised his eyebrows and said calmly, “Be more specific.”
“Alright.” Teng Hejing nodded and said seriously, “After many explorations, deductions, and investigations, I’ve obtained shocking news. The Jia Family has more barbarian warriors hidden in their manor, not outside the city, but in the Jia Family’s residence in the north of the city!
“Hiding barbarian warriors in the city. No matter what schemes the Jia Family has, they are a huge danger. In order to get rid of this danger, I moved around in the dark for a long time and successfully surrounded the Jia Family’s residence. I also invited the two generals of the Prefecture Army to cooperate with me.
“However, because there is a third-grade expert guarding the Jia Family’s residence, the operation hasn’t started even until today.
“Senior, if you’re in the third-grade and are willing to help restrain this third-grade martial artist, I’m 80% sure that I can round up everyone else in the Jia Family’s residence in one swoop!”
With that, Teng Hejing fixed his gaze on Su Jingxing.
Su Jingxing’s expression remained unchanged.
Deep down, he was surprised.
That’s right, Teng Hejing’s investigation was very accurate.
Through Jiang Jiuyang’s Memory Card, he learned that the Jia Family had indeed hidden barbarian warriors in their manor. Su Jingxing had even “seen” the exact location.
The Jia Family’s influence and strength in Anyang City was equivalent to the Li Family in Qinghe City.
Teng Hejing actually wanted to get rid of them. He had to admit that he was truly gutsy and bold enough.
Compared to Li Linzhou, Teng Hejing’s style was clearly more domineering.
“Since you’ve brought in the Prefecture Army, wouldn’t it be better for you to get a commander to be in charge of restraining the third-grade expert from the capital?”
Su Jingxing analyzed calmly, “As long as the commander from the Prefecture Army sees through the Jia Family’s conspiracy to harbor barbarians, no matter how powerful the Jia Family’s backer is, the family will be abandoned.”
“I want that too, but I’m not 100% confident.”
Teng Hejing’s expression did not change. He said calmly, “The Jia Family also has connections in the Prefecture Army. The two generals I found are my own connections. Strictly speaking, this is considered operating in private, so they are also bearing significant responsibility.
“Once the encirclement and suppression of the Jia Family fails, they will be expelled from the Prefecture Army. As for me, I might lose my life. No, I most probably will!”
Hearing this, Su Jingxing chuckled and sized up Teng Hejing. He said indifferently, “If you fail, you will die. But you still dare to crack down on the Jia Family? Or rather, are you, Teng Hejing, never afraid of death?”
“Who isn’t afraid of death? But being afraid of death doesn’t mean that you don’t dare to take action.”
Teng Hejing said in a deep voice, “Opportunities come with risks. If we succeed in encircling the Jia Family, I will also get a huge reward. At least a 50% chance of advancing to the third-grade!”
Got it.
This is a domineering person, a rational person, and a crazy person.
There was a 90% chance of dying if he failed, but if he succeeded, there was a 50% chance of advancing to the third-grade.
For the sake of the third-grade, the 80% chance of successfully annihilating the Jia Family was enough for him to take a gamble.
Of course, this probability was based on the premise that Su Jingxing was a third-grade martial artist and held back the third-grade expert in the Jia Family’s residence.
If Su Jingxing didn’t help, he wouldn’t even have a 10% chance of success.
As for rashly confessing to Su Jingxing and asking for help, it was obvious that Teng Hejing had already studied Su Jingxing’s background on his way here.
Lu Xinyan and her brother had rescued an expert who had fallen from the sky.
In order to repay the siblings, he took action to get rid of Jiang Jiuyang.
Finally, he killed the barbarian warrior who ambushed him and got someone to inform him to come over.
No matter where such a person came from or what his identity was, he could at least befriend him.
Of course, Teng Hejing also made a bet.
If he lost the bet, he would lose his life.
If Su Jingxing was related to the Jia Family, Teng Hejing would be courting death by saying these words.
However, if he won the bet, Teng Hejing would have a 50% chance of advancing to the third-grade.
For the third-grade, he would take the gamble!
Crazy!
At this thought, Su Jingxing did not say anything else. He only manifested his Martial Art True Intent, the Sishui Horned Dragon.
Roar!
