Hearing Lei Tai say this.
The professionals of the Bai Family all had strange expressions.
Those who knew Lu Ran understood that Lei Tai was telling the truth. They participated in this Bai Family operation without any intention of killing Lu Ran, and they couldn’t kill him anyway.
They were just here to join the fun and get paid.
As for those who didn’t understand Lu Ran, they were dismissive.
They thought, no matter how strong a rookie professional is, can’t so many of us kill this person?
It was simply a joke!
And it was precisely because of these expressions that Liu Xinxin and the others understood.
Even though Lu Ran had already made such an astounding performance in the Imperial Capital, there were still many who didn’t understand his terror.
"There’s no helping it, Longxia simply has a large population, and so does the Imperial Capital. You can’t expect everyone to thoroughly understand how incredible Lu Ran is," Yu Qingcang said, glancing at Liu Xinxin.
At this mont.
Bai Yunzong shouted, "He’s just a provisional mber. Is it worth it for your Four Major Guilds to do so much? To oppose our Bai Family?"
Huh?
Yu Qingcang raised an eyebrow.
Instinctively said, "Is it so difficult to oppose your Bai Family? Whether it’s worth it or not, with our Four Guilds here, your Bai Family isn’t going anywhere today."
These words were even modest.
Forget the Four Major Guilds; even just the Celestial Path Alliance alone, the Bai Family couldn’t handle it!
Far from it!
The reason the Four Major Guilds gathered in such a high-profile manner was to pave the way for Lu Ran, establish his foundation and status in Longxia.
The Bai Family was rely a minor cleanup, not even worth their consideration.
"Then let’s fight to the death, I’d like to see if you can protect Lu Ran!" Bai Yunzong yelled with a twisted face.
Liu Xinxin and the others were dumbfounded upon hearing this.
This Bai Yunzong, losing his son, couldn’t take the blow and went completely mad.
Still wanting a fight?
What does your Bai Family have to fight with?
"I already told you, Lu Ran doesn’t need our protection. Are you deaf or what?" Lei Tai shouted frustratedly.
And Liu Xinxin.
Was even more direct.
Glancing at the Bai Family’s professionals.
She said indifferently, "You are professionals belonging to the Bai Family, used as pawns this ti, achieved nothing, you’re innocent, and can leave anyti, we give you the chance."
Uh, this...
If they left, wouldn’t the five million Bai Yunzong promised be gone?
Leaving so easily, there would be nothing to gain.
"There’s only one chance, if you don’t leave and insist on fighting, we will suppress you by force, disregarding casualties." Liu Xinxin repeated.
Upon these words.
The Bai Family’s professionals imdiately beca agitated.
They could be greedy; they could want money, but they also wanted to live!
The Four Major Guilds were right in front of them; if a fight broke out, how could they fight, wouldn’t that be a sure death?
Bai Yunzong noticed that the atmosphere was a bit off.
Quickly shouted, "Don’t listen to their nonsense, we may not be incapable of fighting them, moreover, Lu Ran is just a provisional mber. Even if we want to kill him, before we do, it’s not a cri, and their Four Major Guilds wouldn’t dare kill you without cause, at most they’d control you and restrict your actions."
Admittedly, Bai Yunzong’s words had so effect.
This was the Imperial Capital.
It wasn’t a place where the Four Major Guilds could run rampant.
And if Bai Yunzong was right that no one would die, then what was there to fear?
They could still get the five million!
This made the professionals who had been planning to leave waver again.
But just then.
Soone ca walking from the other end of the street.
Leading them was a short-haired woman, dressed neatly and smartly, followed by a few others.
"We’re from the supervisory group, I’m the leader, and here’s my identification, here to inform Bai Yunzong from the Bai Family that, due to corporate cris, all your assets have been frozen. Until a thorough investigation is complete, they cannot be accessed or used." The short-haired woman directly stated.
She didn’t consider how tily her arrival was.
This statent was like a heavy bomb, instantly detonating the entire scene.
Bai Yunzong’s face instantly turned extrely grim.
Talk about coming at the right ti!
Though Bai Yunzong anticipated this, he didn’t expect it to happen so quickly!
The state’s intervention, standing behind Lu Ran, was astonishingly efficient!
This level of efficiency was far beyond Bai Yunzong’s usual dealings with the state!
It also showed how high Lu Ran’s status was with the state.
And the Bai Family’s professionals were dumbfounded.
Huh?
The Bai Family’s assets were frozen?
Then what’s the point anymore!
Risking a beating, even if they wouldn’t die, there’d be no money to be made!
So then...
"Mr. Bai, sorry, my wife’s giving birth, I’ve got to go."
"Next ti for sure!"
"I’ve got water boiling at ho, oh, I forgot."
"Next ti, next ti, I’m leaving now."
"I’m not leaving because there’s no money, I genuinely have a stomach ache, see, I’m already losing health, probably poisoned."
...
In an instant, half the people scattered.
The remaining ones were hesitating, not because of money, since there’d be none, but because they wanted to leave too.
However, Bai Yunzong’s gaze swept over them; so among them had been treated well by the Bai Family before, so it felt awkward to leave.
Since there was no money, might as well give it a fight, taking hits wouldn’t kill them, and at least they’d save so face.
But then.
Another group suddenly approached.
They looked familiar, and the insignia on their chests was clearly visible.
People from the Full-ti Alliance!
And these were high-ranking mbers.
"Bai Yunzong, you are suspected of attempting to murder a National Hero. The Full-ti Alliance received notice from above to apprehend you first." The leading man said sternly.
What?
Bai Yunzong was stunned.
"What nonsense are you spouting? How many National Heroes does Longxia even have? When did I attempt to murder a National Hero?" Bai Yunzong retorted.
"This is the certificate of honor, just issued from above but not yet announced. Lu Ran, for his rits in city defense, is inducted into the Longxia Hall of Fa, concurrently granted the honor of National Hero." The man replied.
He even presented Lu Ran’s honor certificate.
From afar, it wasn’t clear, but Yu Qingcang next to him could see it clearly.
Four big words were on it: Matchless National Hero!
This made Yu Qingcang and the others gasp, it was entirely unexpected!
The nation’s recognition of Lu Ran reached such heights!
National Hero!
But thinking about it, it made sense. Single-handedly handling a level six monster siege, saving the entire Imperial Capital!
This level of skill, honor, was unprecedented!
Unparalleled!
Coupled with his previous suppression of the U.S.A. in the Deathmatch Arena, and subduing Japan’s Nanami in the Endless Tower.
Such a talent, the title of National Hero was well deserved!
Bai Yunzong was utterly shocked, he didn’t expect this!
The man glanced at the remnants of the Bai Family’s professionals and continued, "Bai Yunzong’s attempt to harm a National Hero is unforgivable, participants refusing advice share the sa guilt, executed on the spot!"
