Man on the ark, forced to become king

Their ways of thinking were completely different, and Kal'tsit couldn't think of anything to say for a moment. She could only ask which place Golden Tree planned to target first, if it wasn't aimed at Kazdel.

If you want to change the world, you have to take action, right? Otherwise, why waste your energy trying to take over the Tower of Babel?

"Hmm, I haven't decided yet. I've secured a small piece of land in Syracuse, so it's not a bad idea to focus my efforts there first."

Lin Lu stroked her chin, thinking as she spoke, "I'm going to Ursus soon, and I might as well check out the situation there. I've heard the situation in Ursus isn't too good right now, so maybe there'll be an opportunity?"

Chapter Forty-Two: A Storm is Brewing, Disaster is Imminent

"Tch, that old man!"

After ordering someone to take Lin Qingyan away, Wei Yanwu walked into the blockade. The Imperial Guard Bureau's blockade was still in progress. Watching his figure disappear beyond the guard's reach, Chen snorted and cursed under his breath.

She has always disapproved of such lawless behavior.

If someone blatantly breaks the law, they should be handed over to the Imperial Guard for trial. What's the point of taking them away directly?

However, reality is never ideal. As social animals, humans are naturally bound by certain unspoken rules.

As the master of Longmen, Wei Yanwu is the most powerful person in the entire Longmen, so he can do this. Even if he orders the release of serious criminals in prison, the Imperial Guard has to obey.

Chen herself knew that no one would stand by her side. Everyone thought it was only natural, and that some people could be above the laws and regulations of Longmen.

There was nothing she could do about it except silently express her dissatisfaction.

If she really wanted to do something drastic, her colleagues would probably stand up to stop her, and even Hoshiguma would have her firmly pinned down.

If... if she could become a member of Lungmen...

After his initial frustration, Chen Pingsheng felt a small, budding desire for power for the first time.

If she had been in that seat, this probably wouldn't have happened.

No, it’s not possible, it’s certain!

If she were to lead Lungmen, she would never allow such a thing to happen!

"Sigh, stop thinking about it and get back to work."

Hoshiguma sighed, patted Chen on the shoulder, and didn't know how to comfort him.

She was a seasoned veteran of the Guard Bureau, and this kind of thing was commonplace. Most people in the Guard Bureau were the same, and only a greenhorn like Chen would have such passion.

After seeing and experiencing so much, how can one still have the impulsiveness of youth?

Let alone a big shot like Wei Yanwu, even if the boss of a large company came to the Guard Bureau, the director would do a favor in a relatively reasonable way.

That's just how society is. Not everyone who comes to the Guard Bureau is there with the intention of eliminating evil. Most people are just there to work and get by, and they also have families to support, so nobody wants to offend anyone.

"Yes, work."

Chen nodded, said nothing more, and joined the Guard Bureau's team.

Regular police officers are responsible for sealing off the area, while the special inspectorate is responsible for dealing with potential violence, which may take a long time.

"Such powerful energy."

The closer Wei Yan got, the deeper his brows furrowed.

At this moment, the golden tree didn't feel like a plant or an inanimate object to him, but rather like a living creature.

A faint glow emanated rhythmically from the tree trunk, like a human heart beating slowly, brimming with powerful vitality.

The more we know, the more we revere.

Because he was born into the royal family of Yan Kingdom and knew many unknown secrets, Wei Yanwu was even more wary of the golden tree in front of him.

This feeling... is like that of a god.

He had to consider whether his initial decision was correct, and whether it would be beneficial to keep such things in Lungmen.

Such a huge tree can only provide cover for a while, not forever. It will eventually be discovered by the Yan Kingdom, and that will likely be the time when the storm arrives.

But, should we really discuss with Lin Lu about transplanting the golden tree?

Putting aside the question of how to transport such a large tree, even if there were a way, he wouldn't dare to actually do it.

The Golden Tree is no longer something he can control.

If the energy hidden in this tree were released instantly, it could potentially level most of Lungmen!

Therefore, if they want to protect themselves, Lungmen absolutely cannot afford to fall out with the Golden Tree.

The cooperation should continue.

However, cooperation is based on equality between the two parties, so how should the relationship be maintained in the future?

Looking up at the canopy of the golden tree, Wei Yanwu fell into deep thought.

"Lord Wei, something extraordinary has appeared at Longmen."

Suddenly, a detached voice rang out from not far away, startling Wei Yanwu from his reverie. Old Long subconsciously raised his pipe, crimson light flowing through it, and the Crimson Sky Sword Qi instantly took shape and swept out!

Ding!

The metal clanged, and sparks flew.

The Crimson Sky Sword Qi collided with the black scabbard with gold patterns. The blue-haired youth's arm trembled as he took the blow. His black and red cloak fluttered slightly, revealing a large, long wooden box with a thick back.

"The steward of the year, the candle keeper, and the left musician greet Lord Wei."

Despite being suddenly slashed by a sword, the young man remained calm, bowed respectfully, and behaved with great deference.

"The Imperial Household Department, the Court of Judicial Review, huh? So you've all got your eyes on my Dragon Gate?"

Wei Yanwu narrowed his dragon eyes, an invisible aura spreading out, and a terrifying killing intent faintly emanating from his body.

He was really a little angry.

He thought that Lin Lu had left Longmen with the Nian Beast and that Si Suitai, who had not found their target, should have already retreated. He did not expect that these people would play the trick of feigning an attack while secretly advancing right under his nose. There were even people hiding in Longmen. Did they think he was dead?

"Why do you say that, Lord Wei? Longmen is part of the Great Yan territory. The Si Suitai is ordered to travel the world, so why can't they come to Longmen? Could it be that Longmen is hiding some shady business?"

"presumptuous!"

Wei Yanwu was furious, but when he saw Zuo Le's serious and youthful face, his anger subsided considerably.

Honestly, why is he getting angry with a child?

He knew Zuo Xuanliao, the son of the Grand General and Marquis of Pingchong, who was also from a noble family.

At such a young age, he entered the Si Sui Tai and became the youngest candle bearer. With such a resume, it's inevitable that he would feel proud. He's similar to his husband Chen Ye, speaking directly and straightforwardly, without knowing what it means to conceal one's sharpness.

"Young man, don't be too arrogant. The affairs of Longmen are to be handled by Longmen. This is an agreement between me and His Majesty the current emperor. It is not up to a junior like you to interfere."

"Moreover, the authority of the Year God is to monitor the Year Beasts, not to govern my Dragon Gate. Do you really think I'm too old to have any temper?"

boom!

In an instant, a gust of wind stirred up dust, and his cloak billowed without wind. Wei Yanwu stood upright, his face filled with murderous intent.

Zuo Le felt a sudden weight on his shoulders, as if the empty air was instantly filled with invisible blades. Beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead. He quickly explained, "Lord Wei, I have no intention of interfering in the affairs of Longmen. The duty of the Director of the Year is indeed to monitor the Year Beast, but... as a messenger of the palace, I also have my own duties."

"As for the people from the Dali Temple... Lord Wei, please forgive me. My aunt is impulsive and sometimes acts rashly. She did not intend to disrupt the order of Longmen. I hope that Lord Wei will consider the old Celestial Master's feelings and not hold it against her."

"Hmph, if I had the will, how could she be alive?"

With a cold snort, Wei Yanwu's imposing aura subsided, and he said indifferently, "Alright, I don't want to waste any more words with you. This matter can be big or small. You should understand what can be said and what cannot be said. Just stay in my residence for a few days, and I will let you leave then."

"Does Lord Wei want me to conceal the matter of this tree? I am afraid I cannot comply."
