Where's my golden core? Did you think I removed a kidney stone?

Chapter 98 You dare represent the Azure Dragon? (Another big update, please vote!)

Su Ye stood in the center of the abandoned parking lot.

Before it was completely dark, the windows of the residential buildings in the distance lit up one by one. Su Ye stared at them quietly, his spiritual power spreading out invisibly.

The five people stopped in their tracks, their expressions solemn.

Is it just my imagination?

There was something off about this young doctor. He was standing near the abandoned parking lot, and a faint ripple seemed to spread out from him. The overwhelming feeling of water surged up, and he seemed to be standing at the center of everything.

The pressure suddenly disappeared the next moment.

Su Ye stood there, his aura flat, as if he were an ordinary person who had not experienced much of the extraordinary.

The group exchanged glances, their expressions quickly turning gloomy, their eyes filled with disdain. "Just bluffing. You almost fooled me. Is this the power of kidney water?"

The leader, from the Inner Fire Realm, said coldly, "Let's just attack directly. Why waste words with him! There are differences between the Five Internal Organs and Five Elements Realms. Kidney Water is strong in spiritual power and in deconstructing all things. If we really fight, would I avoid his sharp edge?"

Several men surrounded them menacingly.

The extraordinary being with inner fire stared at Su Ye, his tone carrying a condescending pity.

"Dr. Su, you'd better surrender. This is Jiangcheng. You've offended the wrong people. If you dare to resist, we can't guarantee you'll be alright today."

Su Ye looked at them.

In the distance, the streets are bustling with people, who are still going about their normal lives. However, this place seems more remote and gloomy, while the warmth of human life is not far away.

They've already turned this place into a shadowy corner where they can do whatever they want with people.

"How dare you act so arrogantly in broad daylight?"

The leader paused for a moment, then burst out laughing.

"So what?"

He took a step forward, and suddenly a dull heartbeat sounded in his chest.

thump.

thump.

A fiery aura surged from the depths of his heart, spreading along his blood vessels to his limbs, turning his skin an unnatural red. He had just completed a marrow cleansing, and his Heart Fire Palace was beginning to take shape. This power gave him a sense of confidence that allowed him to look down upon the extraordinary circles of Jiangcheng.

His eyes were full of threat.

"Times have changed."

Several people around them also approached.

Some people have blurry outlines appearing on their shoulders, like a pair of withered claw shadows; some people's palms have a bluish-black sheen, and their finger bones have become longer; and some people's back muscles bulge, and outlines emerge along their spine, like a rough bone spur.

Jest, mockery, disdain.

In their eyes, this little doctor from the countryside was nothing more than a pitiful wretch who had offended the powerful and was now cornered.

Su Ye suddenly smiled.

"A group of beings who have just touched the transcendent are already so arrogant."

He took a step forward.

"Jiangcheng may not be big, but it's not your place to rule the world."

The words fell.

boom.

An invisible spiritual force suddenly spread.

The entire parking lot seemed to be instantly submerged by a raging sea, the air was pressed into a solid state, the weeds in the cracks in the ground bent down one by one, and the broken streetlights in the distance emitted a crackling sound of electricity.

The expressions on the faces of the five people froze instantly.

The arrogance in the inner vision of the heart fire had not yet dissipated, and fear had already surged from the depths of the pupils.

This is... mental power??

The pressure was terrifying, as if a giant hand had instantly plunged them into the deep sea, making it impossible for them to breathe.

"you----"

Before anyone could utter a single word, Su Ye had already vanished from the spot.

The next instant, he appeared in front of the observer, his footsteps so light they made no sound, yet his movements were so fast that no one could react. Su Ye raised his hand and gripped the other's shoulder with his five fingers.

Click.

The man's appearance had barely emerged halfway from behind when it was forcefully forced back into his body by an overwhelming force. His shoulder blades shattered, and the foundation of his appearance collapsed simultaneously. The man screamed in agony and collapsed to his knees, blood and foam gushing from his mouth and nose.

The second one lunged forward with its claws.

Su Ye dodged to the side, without even being touched by the hem of his clothes.

He landed a punch on his opponent's ribs.

It exploded with a muffled thud.

The claws behind the man resembled glass shattered by a heavy hammer, cracking and splitting as his body flew sideways, crashing into an abandoned carport, causing half of the tin roof to collapse with a crash.

The third person in charge of external affairs wanted to run away.

Su Ye looked up.

With a gentle press of mental energy.

The man's feet suddenly froze on the spot, the bone spurs on his back trembled violently, and then crumbled inch by inch. His eyes rolled back, and he knelt on the ground, as if all his strength had been drained away.

The remaining person inside the room had a drastic change in expression.

His internal organs had just begun to function when Su Ye pointed a finger at his chest.

The spiritual energy of the kidney water directly penetrates.

The still-developing inner world within the person's body was forcibly shattered, and the originally flowing spiritual energy was like a basin of water being overturned, instantly turning into a chaotic mess.

He collapsed to the ground, his face ashen, looking like a deflated balloon.

The group watched this scene in disarray, their eyes filled with fear.

What level is this?

He was ruthless, completely disabling their appearances. Moreover, each of this young doctor's attacks struck precisely at the foundation of their appearances, using the most ruthless methods to shatter their physical forms—completely disintegrating them.

The inner workings of the leader's inner fire finally stirred.

His face flushed red, and his heart pounded wildly.

dong dong dong dong!

After undergoing a marrow cleansing, the power of his inner fire erupted within him, causing the ground beneath his feet to explode. He transformed into a crimson shadow, charging towards Su Ye with his fists enveloped in scorching heat, like an overloaded engine.

He felt as if his heart was about to be torn apart after throwing that punch.

But he had to fight.

Because if he doesn't fight harder, he won't even have the right to stand in front of Su Ye.

The fist was still three feet away from Su Ye.

An invisible force has already descended.

boom!

He was sent flying backward, the fire in his chest was instantly extinguished, and he slid more than ten meters across the ground, leaving a gray-white mark on the concrete.

His pupils contracted sharply.

next moment.

Su Ye's figure moved strangely close.

The shadow blocked his view.

He tried to struggle, but Su Ye had already placed a hand on his forehead.

A terrifying mental force instantly flooded his mind.

boom.

The light in his inner vision suddenly dissipated, and Su Ye's spiritual power temporarily dispersed his spirit, making his expression wooden.

Su Ye looked down at him, his voice calm.

"Take me to see the person behind you."

The man nodded stiffly.

"Yes."

In the parking lot, the several crippled transcendents lay on the ground, in extreme pain, yet they dared not even utter a scream. They watched as Su Ye picked up the inner realm transcendent who had undergone a marrow cleansing, their eyes filled with terror.

The person who offended Director Zheng is not as simple as they imagined!

Su Ye carried the man and headed towards the center of Jiangcheng.

The lights are already on in the shops along the roadside.

A light layer of night descended, bringing joy to many; after get off work, nothing is not something to be happy about.

Jiangcheng is very mild.

This city lacks the oppressive feeling of towering skyscrapers found in provincial capitals; the nights are filled with the sounds of ordinary people's lives—the clatter of spatulas and pots.

The sounds of collisions, electric scooter warnings, children's laughter, and the rustling of takeout bags are all subtle yet real.

But beneath this peace, darkness has already begun to grow.

What happens when power and the extraordinary are combined?

How many of the extraordinary individuals targeted in Baideng Street, He Qingqing whose interior in shop number 102 was almost demolished, and those who disappeared into the shadows in Jiangcheng, are connected to this network?

Su Ye's gaze was calm.

But beneath the quiet, the sharp edge deep within his golden core gradually subsided. Twenty minutes later, he arrived at the building where the Jiangcheng Emerging Business Formats Management Office was located.

The building is in a good location, close to the main road. The exterior windows are very clean, and several black official cars are parked downstairs. The lobby is brightly lit, and the security guard at the entrance is sitting on a chair watching short videos, with exaggerated laughter coming from his phone.

The security guard heard footsteps, looked up, and immediately stared wide-eyed.

A young man, carrying a dull-looking man in his hand, walked straight inside.

"Hey! What are you doing here? Where are you from?"

Su Ye glanced at him.

Just a glance.

The security guard's body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground, his phone falling to the ground with a thud.

He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

This department was recently established and may not seem high-ranking, but people in the building know in private that it deals with very special matters. There are many documents that cannot be asked about, and many people can come and go without being stopped.

Even if it's extraordinary, no one has ever seen such a scene before.

The security guard was sweating profusely.

This guy is terrifying.

Su Ye ignored him and carried the man with the Heartfire Inner Realm all the way upstairs.

The corridor was brightly lit, and the walls were covered with rules, regulations, and slogans; everything was clean and orderly.

He arrived at the door of Zheng Wei's office.

Push the door open.

There was no one inside.

The desk was tidy, the teacup was still steaming, the documents were pressed on the corner of the desk, and the bookshelf was neatly arranged.

Su Ye stood at the door, his spiritual power instantly extending outwards.

Soon, he looked behind the bookshelf.

A cold smile appeared on his lips.

"A rat hiding in the shadows."

He raised his hand.

boom!

The bookcase, along with the hidden door behind it, was blown open.

Deep inside the hidden door.

Zheng Wei was sitting in his seat, looking at the documents in his hand.

The documents on the table were all related to Su Ye.

Hospital official appointment process.

Departmental evaluation.

-

Surgical record.

He Qingqing's contact records.

There are also photos of several missing subordinates.

Zheng Wei looked at the documents with a smile on his lips.

Everything felt like a dream.

Two weeks ago, he was just a junior staff member who had been transferred to a new department.

When he was first selected, he was unwilling. Emerging Business Management Office? What kind of department was that? He had never even heard of it. In the current state of society, where are there any emerging industries? It looked like a marginal department that would be forgotten in the future.

But after he arrived, he discovered the true secret of this world.

An extraordinary arrival.

A small number of people with special talents have begun to undergo mysterious evolution.

His department is in charge of these things; the authorities want to establish order, to register, guide, and regulate.

But Zheng Wei saw another way.

What do you care?

Why should we interfere?

Are those monsters really manageable?

Only shared interests can bring everything toward a shared future!

He began to engage with the gray market, recruited extraordinary individuals, and incorporated marginal forces in White Lantern Street. He used his identity to protect them and then used their power to pave the way for himself.

half a month.

He wove a net in Jiangcheng.

Every department knew he was involved in special affairs and treated him with awe. The gray organizations knew he had an official position and were willing to follow his orders. Even those newly awakened, directionless superhumans regarded him as a powerful figure they could rely on, and his influence grew stronger and stronger.

Although he was just an ordinary person, he could say that he was in charge of the Jiangcheng Extraordinary Realm.

He liked this taste.

Sitting in the shadows.

With a flick of his finger, someone outside would do things for him.

Be the king of Jiangcheng.

Zheng Wei's smile deepened.

It was at this time that...

boom!

The walls of the secret room suddenly collapsed.

The heavy wooden veneer shattered into pieces, the glass of the wine cabinet crashed to pieces, smoke and dust billowed up, the warm gold light strips flickered violently, and a terrifying force, like a roaring dragon, tore open this luxurious dark room.

A figure stood amidst the smoke and dust.

Zheng Wei's pupils contracted instantly.

Since this department was established, no one has dared to barge in like this.

His extraordinary team was enough to instill fear in most of the Lone Extraordinary Individuals in Jiangcheng.

But now.

His capable subordinate from the Heartfire Palace stood blankly beside Su Ye, his eyes vacant, like a puppet on strings.

Zheng Wei suddenly stood up.

"Who are you!"

Su Ye looked at him.

"Haven't you been looking for me?"

"Why do you seem so unhappy that we've suddenly met?"

Zheng Wei's expression changed.

"Su Ye!"

He stared intently at Su Ye, his eyes filled with horror. He thought Su Ye was just a junior doctor, a young superhuman who had come into contact with the inner landscape of kidney water.

The fog had only been there for a month.

No matter how strong it is, how strong can it be?

He held power, departments, and the combined strength of several gray organizations within Jiangcheng, which is why he thought killing such a guy would be as easy as crushing an ant. Moreover, killing an Inner Realm Transcendent would establish his authority within Jiangcheng. But this scene before him sent chills down his spine for the first time.

Zheng Wei's expression was cold and stern. Although he was somewhat frightened, he pointed at the extraordinary heart fire and asked, "What did you do to him?"

"Do you know the consequences of trespassing here today?"

Su Ye didn't answer. In front of Zheng Wei, he raised his hand and touched the chest of the person in the Inner Heart Fire Realm. The little bit of Heart Fire Minggong that was still left in the person's chest cavity suddenly went out completely with a hiss, like charcoal extinguished by water.

The fire in my heart has been extinguished.

The interior collapsed.

The man's body went limp, as if all support had been removed, and he collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

Zheng Wei's pupils shrank to a single point.

In the past two weeks, he has come into contact with many extraordinary people.

But the guy in front of him made him truly feel fear.

Zheng Wei forced himself to calm down. He glanced at the sign for the Emerging Business Management Office at the door, and his fear seemed to dissipate considerably. Then he looked at Su Ye.

"I represent the official position."

His voice was low, but it carried the last bit of strength he had left.

"You may have gone far on the path of the extraordinary, but this world is not as simple as you think. If you leave today, then let's join forces, take control of the extraordinary world in Jiangcheng, and achieve a win-win situation. What do you say?"

However, Su Ye looked at him with disdain.

Do you think you can represent the official position?

"Don't be silly."

Su Ye took a step forward.

"You represent no one; you are just a dirty thing born from personal selfishness."

"7

Zheng Wei's breath hitched, then his expression twisted into a ferocious grimace as if something deep within him had been struck. He roared, "You're too young! You understand nothing! I represent a force you cannot resist!"

"My position is destined to place me above all other extraordinary beings!"

"The government possesses the most powerful machine of violence, the Azure Dragon! A new order has arrived, and I am working for this order!"

He became more and more anxious as he spoke, and a kind of mad light even appeared in his eyes.

Su Ye looked at him and suddenly felt a little sorry for him.

This person glimpsed a bit of the extraordinary and grasped a bit of power, and then thought he had ascended to the throne of a god.

Su Ye took out his phone and made a call.

Zheng Wei looked at his actions with confusion at first, then felt a slight sense of relief.

Su Ye did not kill him directly.

That means he still has reservations.

It's good that you have reservations.

As long as there are concerns, things can still be discussed.

But not long after, Zheng Wei's own phone suddenly rang.

He glanced at the caller ID, his expression changed slightly, and he quickly answered the call.

A voice on the other end of the phone, barely containing its anger, came through.

"Zheng Wei!"

"What exactly did you do in Jiangcheng?"

"That old man from Canglong just called personally to demand an explanation! Are you out of your mind? Who gave you the audacity to set up a supernatural network in Jiangcheng under the guise of official authority? Who gave you the guts?"

The color drained from Zheng Wei's face instantly.

He held the phone and swayed slightly.

He's now using the Azure Dragon as a front.

It's precisely because of Canglong's current authoritative reputation within the extraordinary community—he's an official, and Canglong is also an official—that his statement, though somewhat opportunistic, can be glossed over. Canglong's reputation has recently scared away too many extraordinary individuals.

But now—

Who exactly is this young man named Su Ye?

The person on the other end of the phone was still angrily berating him, but Zheng Wei could no longer hear them.

Su Ye put away his phone and looked at him calmly.

"Transcendence is a path that all beings contend for; your existence will only taint this path."

Zheng Wei's lips trembled; he wanted to speak, but couldn't utter a single word.

Su Ye continued, "After you die, Jiangcheng will be reshuffled."

"Whitelight Street will also usher in a new order."

"Go in peace."

Zheng Wei suddenly looked up, and fear finally overwhelmed everything in his eyes.

"No----"

Su Ye pointed it out.

puff.

A bloody hole appeared between Zheng Wei's eyebrows.

His body stiffened, the light in his eyes quickly faded, and he slumped backward into the expensive leather chair.

Warm golden light illuminated the luxurious, dark room, where wine, mixed with blood, seeped from a shattered bottle into the thick carpet.

Su Ye stood still, his expression calm.

Outside the window, the night in Jiangcheng remained gentle.

In the distance, thousands of lights were on.

This city still has a long way to go.

provincial capital.

In an office, a middle-aged man in a dark jacket sat at a desk. The tea on the desk had gone cold. He held a cigarette in his hand but hadn't lit it. His eyes were serious, and there was even a hint of barely suppressed panic.

This is a big problem.

The old man from Canglong personally called to inquire about this matter.

Jiangcheng.

A city that's neither too big nor too small.

He hadn't taken it too seriously at first.

The Emerging Business Formats Management Office was originally an experiment after the fog descended. The province was also exploring, and the local areas were feeling their way in the dark. This extraordinary thing came too quickly, and many systems were still on paper. Many things could only be delegated first, allowing the lower levels to test on their own.

But he never expected that such a terrible thing would happen in Jiangcheng.

That idiot Zheng Wei actually used the department's name to collude with the shady industry, turning an abandoned street into a semi-public underground network, allowing the shady industry to run rampant, and even more brazenly than the Xuanjing Society.

What's more troublesome is...

The Azure Dragon personally intervened.

The middle-aged man put the cigarette back in the pack and tapped his fingers on the table a few times.

He's a shrewd person.

Jiangcheng is just a small city. Logically speaking, how could it possibly catch the eye of someone like that?

The fact that the Lord of the Azure Dragons would personally make a phone call suggests that there must be an unapproachable entity behind this.

"We can't delay."

He muttered to himself in a low voice.

"I have to go to Jiangcheng."

After killing Zheng Wei, Su Ye sighed.

The dark room was now a complete mess.

Shattered wood paneling, a collapsed wine cabinet, spilled wine everywhere, and Zheng Wei's body slumped on a leather chair—warm gold—

The lights shone on the mess, making the stench of blood in the air even more pungent.

After the thick fog descended, who knows how many filthy things were hidden in this secret, dark room.

Just one month.

Su Ye sighed softly.

He had just reached the door when his phone vibrated.

The caller ID reads: Mr. Wang.

After Su Ye answered the phone, Old Wang's voice came through, but it carried a hint of suppressed anger.

"Xiao Ye, I have a general understanding of what happened here. Don't worry, I will send people over there to handle the aftermath immediately. You can just leave."

Su Ye stood in the corridor, the white light falling on his shoulders.

"Um."

On the other end of the phone, Old Wang sighed.

"I never expected that what was originally just a proposal would turn into a criminal organization composed of extraordinary individuals in Jiangcheng."

97

"With Zheng Wei backing them up, the White Lantern Street and those things hidden under Jiangcheng are getting bolder and bolder. They strip away the outward appearance, fabricate the inner scene, collect newly awakened people, and use people as materials. It's utterly absurd."

Old Wang's voice turned cold.

"The Xuanjing Society was just destroyed, and now this kind of thing has popped up in Jiangcheng. It seems that the Xuanjing Society has also been scapegoated for many people."

Su Ye looked out the window.

Outside the building's glass windows, the night view of Wuhan unfolds.

The lights were soft, and the streets were calm.

"Many missing persons cases are not necessarily related to the Xuanjing Society."

Old Wang remained silent for a moment.

"I see."

"Leave the rest to Canglong."

"You don't need to get involved anymore."

Su Ye hung up the phone.

The unconscious inner world of the Heart Fire on the ground has no chance of waking up again.

With a casual flick of his wrist, Su Ye completely extinguished the remaining flames in his heart.

Such people follow Zheng Wei in tyranny and have too much blood on their hands; keeping them around is just asking for trouble.

As for the few crippled Outer Forms in the abandoned parking lot outside, someone will naturally take care of them.

Azure Dragon's Thunderous Methods.

Those people will probably disappear completely.

Su Ye walked out of the building.

At the entrance to the lobby, the security guard was still slumped on the ground.

There was a loud bang upstairs, and the whole building shook. He almost thought the gas had exploded, but he didn't dare to ask.

The young man's glance from earlier still haunted him; it was truly terrifying. The security guard watched Su Ye pass by, his throat bobbing, and he didn't dare utter a sound for a long time.

Only after Su Ye had walked far away did he grab his phone from the ground and stagger to his feet.

"Damn it, only 2,800 a month, why should I work my ass off?"

He walked out grumbling.

He didn't even bring a security guard hat.

Su Ye stood outside the building.

A night breeze blew in from the street corner, carrying a hint of dampness.

The city's nights are ordinary.

A gentle breeze caressed his face, yet the myriad aspects of human life remained plainly presented before Su Ye. Sometimes, he even doubted whether the darkness he had witnessed along the way was truly real.

As Su Ye watched all this, a sense of peace suddenly settled over him.

This city is sick.

He just had a piece of tumor removed.

As a doctor, he hopes his patients will get better; as someone living here, he also hopes this city will get better and better.

But where there are people, there is darkness.

Many things cannot be contained.

Su Ye chuckled and shook his head.

It's just needless worry.

Everything in the universe has its own destiny.

He turned and left.

Jiangcheng No. 1 Hospital.

Vice President Zhao sat in his office, his face extremely grim.

He had been on the phone all afternoon, refilling his teacup again and again until his voice was hoarse, but the matter was still not truly resolved.

Who exactly is the person targeting Su Ye?

He couldn't find it.

This gave Vice President Zhao a ridiculous sense of despair for the first time. He was a vice president of a top-tier hospital and a well-known figure in Jiangcheng's social circles, but today he felt that the city was so deep that it was hard to breathe.

"Depend on!"

-

Vice Dean Zhao put his phone on the table, his eyes slightly red.

He mobilized almost all of his connections.

The result was not very fruitful.

Everyone is practicing Tai Chi.

Everyone was telling him not to ask too many questions.

This feeling is so frustrating.

He thought for a moment, then called the dean again.

The dean was very busy; there were voices and the sound of documents being turned in the background, but after listening, the dean only gave a faint smile.

"I just asked around in the provincial capital and I know a little bit about it."

Vice President Zhao immediately sat up straight.

"What's going on?"

The dean's voice was steady.

"Jiangcheng recently launched a new department that touches on things we couldn't access before."

Vice Dean Zhao frowned.

"A new department, with that much power?"

The dean didn't answer directly, but instead said something mysterious.

"It seems our brilliant rookie doctor isn't as simple as he appears."

Vice President Zhao was stunned.

"What do you mean?"

Don't worry about it.

The dean spoke in a very soft tone.

"The matter should be over soon."

After the call ended, Vice Dean Zhao held his phone, speechless for a long time.

This old guy definitely knows something, but I didn't tell him.

But not long after, phone calls started coming in one after another.

"Dean Zhao, there's been a misunderstanding about what happened today." Vice Dean Zhao remembered that this guy's tone was the coldest that morning, and he still remembered the disdain and mockery in his voice. Why is he acting like this now?

Why aren't you being arrogant anymore?

"We asked according to procedure and absolutely did not mean to target any young doctors at the First Affiliated Hospital."

Vice President Zhao sneered.

"Really? I seem to remember someone saying they wanted to suspend all of Su Ye's medical privileges?"

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and then the voice softened completely.

"It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding."

Following that call, one call after another came in, all from the departments that Vice President Zhao had contacted that morning. They were all behaving so humbly that Vice President Zhao found it somewhat absurd.

"Dr. Zhao, is Dr. Su's condition stable now?"

"Please don't overthink this matter, our hospital has already withdrawn the relevant materials."

—"

"Dr. Zhao, it's a good thing to focus on training young doctors. We might have been a bit too hasty today, please bear with us."

Vice President Zhao was furious, but he couldn't help feeling a little satisfied.

These people were all acting all high and mighty this morning.

Now they're all apologizing like grandsons.

He didn't give them a friendly look, but they weren't angry. Instead, they seemed relieved. After hanging up all the calls, Vice Dean Zhao leaned back in his chair with a thoughtful smile on his face.

"It seems I've been meddling in other people's business."

Despite this, he was in a great mood.

The frustration that had been weighing on my chest all morning has completely dissipated.

They walk with a swagger.

He called Zhang Yuanping directly.

"Old Zhang, have Su Ye come to work tomorrow."

Zhang Yuanping's side paused noticeably.

"Resolved?"

"Resolved."

Vice President Zhao spoke in a lighthearted tone.

Zhang Yuanping breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good."

After hanging up the phone, Vice President Zhao stood by the window, looking down at the traffic and outpatient crowds below the hospital.

The smile in his eyes slowly faded.

This incident made him realize something.

The world is undergoing some kind of change that he doesn't understand.

Perhaps everything he has now will become insignificant someday in the future.

The dean seemed to know something.

Old Zhou probably knew as well.

Vice President Zhao stroked his chin.

"They're all keeping things hidden."

That's really not fair.

Not long after Su Ye returned home, he received a message from Zhang Yuanping.

I'll be working as usual tomorrow.

He glanced at his phone but didn't react much.

This matter came quickly and went quickly.

Black and white, out of control, disguised, lurking in the shadows—this world is truly a chaotic mess.

Su Ye took a shower and changed into clean clothes.

As night deepened outside the window, the neighborhood quieted down, with the occasional electric scooter passing by, its tires making a soft sound as they rolled over the paving stones.

Deep within the lungs, the golden elixir floated quietly.

The kidney water and golden elixir sank to the other end.

The two forces fell silent.

-

Su Ye lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning.

The middle-aged man from the provincial capital arrived in Jiangcheng.

His name is Liang Shaoting.

As soon as the car exited the highway, several high-ranking officials from Jiangcheng were already waiting for it.

A group of people greeted us with smiles, each one more enthusiastic than the last.

"Director Liang, you must have had a long journey."

"There has indeed been a problem in Jiangcheng, and we will definitely cooperate with the provincial investigation."

"Please feel free to tell me what you need."

Liang Shaoting wore a polite smile, but he was anything but relaxed inside.

He had no interest in such polite words.

They went straight to the building where Zheng Wei died.

-

Police tape has been put up outside the building.

Several men in black robes stood inside the office.

They were dressed in matching black robes, their aura restrained, yet they exuded a chilling aura that made people afraid to approach. As the wind blew outside the building, the hems of their robes swayed gently, like shadowy blades shrouded in the night.

As soon as Liang Shaoting stepped forward, his mind went blank.

Azure Dragon.

It really is a blue dragon.

Working in the provincial capital's official system, and moreover, the department he was in charge of was similar in nature to Zheng Wei's department, how could he not have heard of Canglong?

Some time ago, Canglong Leiting made a move, destroying the four major bases of Xuanjing Society overnight and directly eliminating a major threat to Jiangnan Province.

In the entire extraordinary circles of Jiangnan Province, the name "Azure Dragon" now carries a weight that makes people feel breathless.

mystery.

tough.

terror.

A truly official, extraordinary violent organization.

Liang Shaoting's heart skipped a beat.

He stepped forward, forcing a smile.

"Comrades, I am Liang Shaoting from the Provincial Emerging Business Formats Coordination Group. Regarding the Jiangcheng incident, I would like to understand the situation on the ground. If it's convenient—"

He hadn't finished speaking.

A man in black robes raised his hand to stop him.

Beneath the black robe, the man's voice was cold and devoid of any emotion.

"The Azure Dragon is in charge."

"All irrelevant persons, step back."

Liang Shaoting's smile froze, and the high-ranking officials from Jiangcheng behind him also fell silent; the air seemed to freeze.

Liang Shaoting stood there, his throat moved, and in the end he could only take half a step back.

"clear."

He dared not ask any more questions.

This trip to Jiangcheng was destined to be fruitless.

But it was precisely because he returned empty-handed that he realized something even more clearly.

The situation in Jiangcheng was far more complex than he had imagined.

It was so profound that even the Azure Dragon himself intervened.

He doesn't even have the right to get close to the truth.
