Chapter Summary
If this were a large gathering place, the Xue family, who ranks high in the town government, would certainly not dare to do such a thing. You must know that this is the Xue family, one of the four great families, not some small, insignificant family. After all, even the Human Council is unwilling to get involved with the four great families, let alone a mere town lord.
The gate was originally closed, but these people were barging in and out. If the guards at the gate hadn't run fast enough, they probably would have been knocked down.
The Xue family, one of the four great families, is just that arrogant. Not to mention now that something has happened, even when nothing has happened, they do things the same way. This is the first time Liu Ning has seen the arrogance and domineering nature of the four great families.
I had heard before that the people of the four great families were human, while everyone else was not. Today I have seen it for myself. In order to investigate the cause of death of their own family's young members, they did things without any regard for others. After entering, they guarded the high ground around them and started firing into the air, driving everyone to the center of the square. If anyone was not moving fast enough, they even sprayed bullets into the open space in front of the crowd. Some of the rubble injured many civilians.
This is absolutely outrageous! Liu Ning was about to go over and teach them a lesson, but Wei Xiong stopped him. This is a turbulent time, and Wei Xiong loves this gathering place the most. But Wei Xiong hasn't lost his mind yet, and he can't let Liu Ning lose his mind. If they make a move here, the chances of them being suspected will increase several times over. Maybe he's feeling a little guilty. Liu Ning knows that's the reason, so he can only hold back for now.
In addition to the dozen or so black SUVs, several trucks drove in from outside, and about 300 people got off. These people were all dressed in black combat uniforms, wearing helmets similar to those on motorcycles, and carrying large-caliber submachine guns. There were even some more advanced weapons on the trucks.
This is the Xue family's guard. Although they are not legally allowed to exist, the Xue family is one of the four major families, and the garrison headquarters dares not interfere. In terms of the sophistication of their equipment, they may be even more formidable than the government officials of the garrison headquarters.
The community martial arts gym is a monitored area, but so what? That's how they operate; do the patrol officers dare to interfere?
The patrol station had already seen it on the surveillance footage. Normally, even if they didn't come over, they would at least call to inquire. But now there's been no response at all, which can only mean one thing: they dare not get involved.
The same thing happened throughout the entire process. For every small team that left the city during that period, the Xue family would send out one of these teams. At this point, Liu Ning also realized that the Xue family's strength was truly unfathomable. For an ordinary force, having one such team would be quite impressive, but for the Xue family, sending out hundreds of such teams at the same time was as easy as turning one's hand.
What surprised Liu Ning and his companions even more was yet to come. As these people's movements became increasingly rough, Liu Ning and his companions realized that these people were not ordinary people, but all of them were warrior apprentices.
At Liu Ning's gathering point, which had nearly 30,000 people, there were fewer than 20 apprentice warriors, a remarkably low ratio. However, in the Xue family's guard, even the ordinary henchmen were apprentice warriors. The difference between the two groups was simply too great.
For the local residents at the gathering point, the change was quite significant. Just moments ago, they were celebrating, and now they were prisoners. Moreover, these people had actually assaulted others. If it weren't for the Xue family's orders prohibiting any injuries, they probably would have opened fire on the crowd. After all, the Xue family had stated that these individuals might be involved, so they had to await the final verdict.
Even without an order to kill, these people had no control over their actions. They used gun butts to beat civilians, and we could only endure it. Liu Ning wanted to fight them, but Wei Xiong held him back tightly.
A small act of impatience can ruin a great plan. As long as we get past this first round of investigation, we'll basically be done with it. But if we beat up these low-level guards at this point, then more trouble will come our way. After all, there are suspicious things about them. Investigators are always omnipresent, and we can't let them find any fault with us.
Liu Ning and the other powerful figures were panting heavily, wishing they could go up and beat the guards up, but they all suppressed the thought. Even if they took action, they probably wouldn't be able to win, because the real powerhouses had appeared. Then two more black SUVs entered, and several people got out of the cars. These people were all warrior-level, and even stronger than Wei Xiong. One of them was a high-level warrior.
Even from a distance of several dozen meters, Liu Ning could already sense the aura of a powerful figure emanating from that guy. If the two were to fight, Liu Ning could feel that even if he could defeat this high-level warrior, he would be severely injured.
"Very good, but don't do anything rash. This inspection might be the last one. If you beat them up, we'll be inspected every few days. Do you think we'll pass?"
Wei Xiong took a deep breath. He used these words to persuade Liu Ning, to persuade the other powerful figures, and even more so, to persuade himself.
"The people at the naval base are all a bunch of scoundrels. How could something like this happen under their jurisdiction? All our taxes have been wasted."
Li Tie was also extremely angry.
"You don't need to think about these things. The people in the town government must have reached some kind of agreement with the Xue family. Otherwise, how could those bastards in the Xue family dare to do this? The people in the town government are still the most powerful in this city. However, the Xue family's entry into our area is not related to the core interests of the town government. Don't expect the people in the town government to stand up for us."
Zhang Chu immediately revealed the truth of the matter: although the naval base claimed to protect every citizen, people were dying every day under its protection, and the naval base had no way of finding the murderers.
If this were a large gathering place, the Xue family, who ranks high in the town government, would certainly not dare to do such a thing. However, Wei Xiong's gathering place is on the very edge of the world. Let alone ranking, whether it can even exist is another matter. How could the town government possibly stand up for them? You must know that this is the Xue family, one of the four great families, not some small, insignificant family. If the town government wants to oppose them, even the town government's assistant has to consider his own future. After all, even the Human Council is unwilling to get involved with the four great families, let alone a mere town lord.
