If there's soone full of terror and stuck in a dangerous situation, it's Fan Hong, the director of the situation, who might feel even more astonished than Team Leader Lin and the others.
From what Elder Feng had said, Director Fan Hong had already guessed that Ge Dongxu was very powerful, and he might even be on par with him. But he never dread that Ge Dongxu could be so terrifying!
He could casually summon nature's spiritual energy and even use techniques to command the vegetation to serve him, instantly subduing all of them.
If this kind of strength were shown by several old predecessors who remained hidden from the world, Director Fan Hong could have accepted it. But for Ge Dongxu, an 18-year-old high school student, to display such power, it was enough to send chills down his spine.
If such a person were given more years to grow, once he brought calamity upon the world, it would probably only be possible to eliminate him by deploying the military.
"Mr. Ge, please don't misunderstand, I am Fan Hong, director of the Special Ability Managent Bureau, and this is Du Suiping from the National Security Departnt, who Elder Feng personally selected to work with us on the investigation." Of course, at this mont, the spirit energy had transford into a sword pointing at his Baihui acupoint, and if it pierced through, the consequences would be unimaginable. Director Fan Hong, already pale with fear, hastened to reveal his identity.
"So it's Director Fan and Mr. Du, my apologies for any offense." Ge Dongxu, hearing this, retracted the small Peach Wood Sword and the aura emanating from his body. He cupped his hands towards the people in the courtyard and apologized.
As Ge Dongxu withdrew his imposing presence, the spiritual energy dissipated, and the lawn on the ground also returned to its peaceful state. The people in the courtyard imdiately felt a sense of lightness and couldn't help but take a deep breath of relief.
Upon exhaling, they realized that their backs were completely soaked through.
At this point, even without the information previously gathered by the Jiangnan Provincial National Security Bureau, Director Fan Hong and the others already knew that the issue definitely lay with Li Bisheng.
It was laughable; with the strength Ge Dongxu had just shown, even without Elder Feng's background, he wouldn't bother provoking Li Bisheng, let alone resorting to any sly tactics.
"Mr. Ge exaggerates, exaggerates indeed. It was my people who offended you earlier. It's only natural for Mr. Ge to be cautious now," Fan Hong said hurriedly, with a very polite and respectful manner.
Whether it was due to the terrifying power Ge Dongxu had just displayed, or his relationship with Elder Feng, Fan Hong couldn't afford to put on airs, not to ntion that he needed Ge Dongxu to show rcy in this matter.
Ge Dongxu accepted Fan Hong's words without objection and nodded indifferently. Then he made a special effort to give a fist and palm salute to Du Suiping: "I truly appreciate you coming all this way from the capital late at night. I'm sorry for the trouble."
"Heh, it's only right," Du Suiping said with a smile.
"Elder Feng must have briefly ntioned the situation to you. Now that you are here, I will go over it in detail one more ti," Ge Dongxu nodded and, after welcoming the group into the villa's living room and everyone was seated, his expression turned serious before he began to speak.
"There's no need for that kind of trouble, it must be their fault!" Fan Hong said.
"No matter whose fault it is, you and Mr. Du are here to handle the case, so let's follow the procedure. I'll recount what I know for you to take down, and then you can continue with taking their statents as necessary. I don't need any special treatnt from you because of Elder Feng; I just want a fair outco based on the investigation results," Ge Dongxu waved his hand, rejecting Fan Hong's offer of consideration.
Fan Hong, looking at Ge Dongxu with great respect, couldn't help but inwardly smile wryly, thinking it was no wonder he was on brotherly terms with Elder Feng. This man was truly sothing! It seed that he wouldn't be able to back off from this matter without a thorough investigation.
"Alright, I respect Mr. Ge's wishes. I, myself, will ask the questions, and Suiping, you take notes," Fan Hong said.
"Alright," Du Suiping nodded, his eyes showing a hint of admiration towards Ge Dongxu.
This person is extraordinary!
By then, Team Leader Lin and the others were thoroughly terrified.
At this point, they had naturally understood to whom Ge Dongxu had made the call, and finally realized why Fan Hong and the others had managed to arrive here from the capital in such a short ti.
The young man before them was actually one of Huaxia Country's remaining few generals, the younger fellow disciple of Elder Feng! And they had almost shot him with a gun!
...
As Ge Dongxu spoke, his account was naturally much more detailed and comprehensive, matching perfectly with the evidence the Jiangnan Province National Security Bureau had gathered.
As for what happened at Xiao Yuan Mountain, Ge Dongxu didn't go into detail, only ntioning that Team Leader Lin and his n had ambushed and attacked him and that Tao Jun had used a gun.
But just those simple few sentences were enough to make Fan Hong and his colleagues break out in a cold sweat once again.
This late at night, a gunman's ambush, and the result was Ge Dongxu erging completely unscathed—this indicated how terrifying his power was! Of course, it was also fortunate that Ge Dongxu wasn't hit; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"Smack!" Just as Ge Dongxu finished speaking, Fan Hong slamd his palm down onto the coffee table, abruptly standing up with a face ashen with rage, pointing at Team Leader Lin and the others, he angrily said, "You really did proud! You dared to set a trap and ambush soone without clarifying anything, and you even used firearms! Tell , who gave you the authority to do that?"
"Director Fan, I also didn't expect that Li Bisheng, as Cui He's disciple, would dare to break the law knowing the law, using techniques to fra the president of Qinglan Costics Company and thus..." Team Leader Lin replied with a pale face.
"What a 'didn't expect'! Can you decide soone's life with just a 'didn't expect'? Who gave you the audacity? Who gave you the power?" Team Leader Lin's attempt to deflect and make excuses only served to infuriate Fan Hong even more.
"I... I didn't intend to take Mr. Ge's life, I... I just wanted to injure him and then capture him, but I didn't expect Tao Jun to use his gun without authorization," said Team Leader Lin with a trembling voice.
Fan Hong and the others imdiately turned their gazes towards Tao Jun, and Ge Dongxu did the sa.
Team Leader Lin's response had slightly altered Ge Dongxu's opinion of him. Otherwise, if he had ordered his n to shoot from the beginning, Ge Dongxu would have held him accountable, no matter what.
Because that would have definitely amounted to reckless disregard for human life!
"It was the elder brother that told to shoot," Tao Jun said with a shiver as everyone's eyes turned towards him. He glanced at Master Cui He, then hurriedly turned to Li Bisheng.
"Jun Sheng, interrogate him," said Fan Hong, not so easily deceived as the head of a departnt. His face darkened abruptly, and he commanded a man with a stern look behind him.
This man was in charge of discipline in the special departnt!
Each mber of the special departnt had cultivation within them, dealing with either people from Qin, zombies, evil spirits, and other non-human creatures. Naturally, they couldn't interrogate suspects in conventional ways.
Known for his impartiality and ruthlessness, Jun Sheng's stern expression and the harsh aura he emitted caused Tao Jun's entire body to tremble uncontrollably, his eyes continuously seeking Cui He.
If Cui He had harbored any chances of luck before, from the mont he knew that Ge Dongxu was Elder Feng's younger fellow disciple and that Du Suiping was a leader in the National Security Departnt personally appointed by Elder Feng, he knew that he couldn't hide this incident, and that he couldn't escape his fate tonight.
"There's no need to trouble you, Team Leader Jun. I was the one who ordered Tao Jun to shoot," Cui He finally spoke, his old face aging drastically as if he had beco an old man on the brink of death.
