"Who's being arrogant!"

Nangong Nayue couldn't help but interrupt, "In the end, it's because you're too outgoing! Keep some distance from me!"

"How heartless!"

Lin Que shrugged and didn't continue the conversation on that topic, instead turning to more serious matters.

"What's the situation now? You should have relayed my words to the higher-ups at Itogami Island, and see what they said."

"What else can I say? Of course, I didn't agree."

Nangong Nayue curled her lip: "Those old guys said that Itogami Island welcomes the arrival of the Fourth Progenitor."

"However, Itogami Island is Japanese territory, and we cannot establish the Night Empire here."

"If you insist on doing this, you'll have to go to Japan and communicate with the authorities."

Of course, that was just a polite remark.

Itogami Island is indeed Japanese territory, but only in name.

As a special zone for demons, Itogami Island is actually a special administrative region with an independent political system, and it is not under the jurisdiction of Japan on a normal day.

Sending Lin Que to find Neon now is just a way to stall for time and pass the buck.

Lin Que naturally understood this principle as well.

He glanced thoughtfully at Nangong Nayue in front of him, a look of curiosity on his face.

"Little Natsuki, you wouldn't have kept quiet about how strong I am just to save face, would you?"

"I'm sorry, I did say that."

Nangong Nayue shook her head: "But those old guys seem to have some trump cards up their sleeves, so they stick to their own ideas."

Of course, more importantly, the higher-ups on Itogami Island did not believe that Lin Que would dare to take forceful action.

The Demon Zone is a place where demons can live and move freely, and it is protected by the [Sanctuary Treaty].

If anyone were to forcibly attack the Demon Realm Special Zone, it would be tantamount to making an enemy of the three Night Empires and all the human nations that have also signed the [Sanctuary Treaty].

Even terrorists only attack the Demon Realm, not conquer or occupy it.

Even Nangong Nayue, who had witnessed Lin Que's power firsthand, thought that Lin Que would display his power and force the higher-ups of Itogami Island to submit before seeing the Deep Ocean Tomb.

However, after seeing the Tomb of the Deep Ocean and learning about Demitoris from the gap in the forest, Nangong Nayue's idea began to waver.

"Lin Que... what are you planning to do next?" Nangong Nayue asked tentatively.

"How? By taking action, of course!"

Lin Que replied, "I hate things that are done in circles."

“Since they are unwilling to submit, then let them go down and join Demitorie.”

"Wait! Calm down!"

Hearing this worst possible answer, Nangong Nayue's heart sank.

"We can't act rashly. If all the high-ranking officials of Itogami Island die, it could cause panic."

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll be careful."

Lin Que waved his hand: "Those who died were all those who were planning to cause trouble. I didn't kill any of the neutral ones."

"But we can't just kill indiscriminately, otherwise... um? What did you mean by that just now?"

Before she could finish speaking, Nangong Nayue suddenly realized something was wrong: "What do you mean by 'those who died were all troublemakers'? What did you do?!"

"Literally of course."

Snap~!

Lin Que snapped his fingers, summoning a series of semi-transparent screens that appeared in front of Nangong Nayue.

"I killed them."

On the screen, figures appeared either slumped on the ground or leaning against chairs, motionless.

Nangong Nayue was not unfamiliar with them; these people were the councilors and directors of Itogami Island.

Among them, Nanami Nagatsuki even spotted Yase Kenjiro, who held the position of chairman of the board.

Unlike the other high-ranking officials who looked like they were asleep, he appeared to have just gone through a fierce battle.

On the walls of the room, there were large, long, narrow cuts, as if they had been sliced ​​open by a sharp blade.

Even so, he still could not escape his fate of death, collapsing to the ground with a look of pain still on his face.

"This old guy is the strongest among this group. Even the aura I sent at the beginning couldn't crush him."

Seeing that Nangong Nayue was staring at Yase Kenjiro's screen, Lin Que casually explained.

"I was originally going to spare his life for the time being, but he made quite a commotion when he resisted."

So he intensified his pressure, causing Yase Akishige and the others to suffer shattered hearts and brains, dying instantly.

.......

Chapter 174 I Want to Be the Boss, Any Objections?

What a strange reason that is!

After hearing Lin Que's explanation, Nangong Nayue's expression stiffened.

To be honest, Nangong Nayue was somewhat resistant to Lin Que's behavior of killing people without warning.

The problem now is that the other party has already made their move, and there's nothing she can do to stop them.

The only consolation was that the people Lin Que dealt with were the ones Nangong Nayue had a bad impression of.

It's clear that Lin Que wasn't lying; those he killed were all people who were planning to cause trouble.

With a somewhat helpless sigh, Nangong Nayue asked, "What are you planning to do next?"

"Of course, it's taking over Itogami Island."

After greeting the Deep Ocean Maid Group not far away and asking them to steer the ship into the harbor, Lin Que looked at Nangong Nayue again.

"Let's go, let's go to the Keystone Gate."

"Call the rest of them over and inform them that Itogami Island has changed hands."

"...That's really simple and straightforward."

Rubbing her forehead with a slight headache, Nangong Nayue couldn't think of any way to stop Lin Que for the time being, so she could only let nature take its course.

"I'll go get help for you. Don't kill people randomly anymore, it'll cause a lot of trouble."

"Don't worry, Natsuki."

Lin Que gave an OK sign: "I've killed most of the ones who needed to be killed in the last wave, so I basically won't be making a move against 537 again."

In other words, is it still possible for them to take action?

After glancing silently at Lin Que, Nangong Nayue said nothing more and disappeared from the spot.

Let's warn the others first, so they don't make the same mistake again.

...

"Long time no see, Mr. Lan Yu."

Beneath the Foundation Gate, Yase Ikuma greeted the middle-aged man walking towards him.

"You look a little pale. Didn't you sleep well?"

"Yes, something happened at home."

Thinking of his wife, who had been hospitalized for some time and whose condition showed no signs of improvement, Lan Yuxian sighed wearily.

"Let's not talk about these things, there's nothing to discuss."

"By the way, why are you here in place of your father today? Isn't Chairman Yase on Itogami Island?"

 JB Yase Ikuma paused for a moment, then said, "My father... has passed away."

"Passed away... Huh? Passed away?!"

Lan Yuxianzhai, who was about to say a few words in response to the topic, paused and stared in surprise.

"What happened! He was perfectly fine when I saw him yesterday!"

Not only is he perfectly fine, but he's also incredibly lively and energetic, daring to talk freely about the upcoming arrival of the Fourth True Ancestor.

How could he have suddenly died in less than a day?

The reason for this is quite complicated.

Thinking of what Nagatsuki Nanami had just said, Yase Ikuma felt a headache coming on.

Outside of Itogami Island, he could kill the formidable Yase Akishige simply by virtue of his aura.

This kind of thing sounds terrifying.

As Yase Akishige's temporary representative, Yase Ikuma is now genuinely afraid of Lin Que, constantly worried that he too might suddenly die.
