Replace me as the top scholar? Go talk to my Marshal Grandpa!

Bai E spoke vividly, with rich details and full of emotion.

The fear and pain on his face looked very real, not at all fake.

And that is indeed the case.

He had recently experienced Wang Xian's "special treatment," and those painful memories were still fresh.

It's just that you can't tell from the outside.

Zhao Mingyuan, standing to the side, watched Bai E's "wonderful" performance and secretly clicked his tongue in amazement.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

"Wow, impressive!"

"The emotions are so on point, the details so rich! I never knew Young Master Bai had the makings of an actor!"

"His talent is incredible!"

Zhao Mingyuan never expected that Bai E wasn't acting; he was simply stating the facts.

The effect of the "Nanoscale Repair Agent" is just too good.

After listening to Bai E's accusations and seeing his miserable appearance, the provincial governor Li Mo nodded slightly.

He was very satisfied with the "excuse" that Zhao Mingyuan had offered.

This reason is perfectly valid and sufficient to deal with Sun Tianrui.

Li Mo's face remained expressionless.

He raised his hand, waved it casually, and gave the order in a calm but unquestionable tone:

"Sun Tianrui, as the director, knowingly broke the law, abused his power, and committed serious violations of discipline."

"Take him away immediately and bring him back for serious investigation."

"As for that Wang Xian, he was no good either, as he assisted in the murder."

"Cripple his hands and feet, and take him back for interrogation."

He said it so casually.

It seems that crippling a person's limbs is as simple as breaking a tree branch.

As soon as Li Mo gave the order, the black-clad guards he brought immediately sprang into action.

Their eyes were cold, and their movements were swift.

Several people surrounded Sun Tianrui.

The others pounced on Wang Xian, who was standing behind them, seemingly determined to carry out the order to "cripple his hands and feet."

This sudden turn of events took both Sun Tianrui and Wang Yuanshan by surprise!

Others may not know Wang Xian's true identity, but the two of them know it perfectly well!

Wang Xian is a direct descendant of the Wang family in the capital, the orphan of Major General Wang Quan, and the grandson of Marshal Wang!

Previously, Wang Xian had been kidnapped and stripped of his talent, which was enough to enrage the entire Wang family and make Marshal Wang furious!

If it were now...

Right under their noses, Wang Xian's hands and feet were crippled in public...

Sun Tianrui and Wang Yuanshan simply couldn't imagine the consequences!

That day, things might really get exposed!

The Wang family's wrath will destroy everything!

Marshal Wang's thunderous rage was something that they, and even the higher-ups of Nanzhao Province, could not withstand!

And those two, as the protectors at the scene, failed in their duty, allowing the young master to suffer such a severe injury. Their responsibility is...

Even if they had nine lives, it wouldn't be enough to compensate! They might not even be able to die then!

Thinking of this, Sun Tianrui and Wang Yuanshan's backs were instantly soaked with cold sweat!

Without the slightest hesitation, the two moved at the same time!

Wang Yuanshan suddenly unleashed all his power and flashed to block Wang Xian's path.

Sun Tianrui moved even faster, appearing like a ghost on Wang Xian's other side and firmly protecting him behind him.

He roared at the charging guards, "Stop! All of you, get out of the way! Let's see who dares to touch him!"

Wang Yuanshan remained silent.

But his cold gaze swept over the guards, and he exuded an extremely dangerous aura.

The guards were reprimanded and hesitated for half a second.

But they saw that Li Mo didn't react at all, just staring coldly.

Without further hesitation, they continued to approach, preparing to forcefully break through Sun Tianrui and Wang Yuanshan's obstruction.

They saw that the guards ignored the warnings and were about to take action.

Sun Tianrui became anxious and furious!

He no longer cared that the other party was some kind of provincial governor!

Sun Tianrui suddenly turned his head, his gaze sharp as lightning, staring intently at Li Mo not far away.

With all his might, he roared out in a voice as loud as thunder:

"Li Mo! Stop right there!"

"Do you even know who this boy you're trying to harm is?!"

"Let me tell you! If you dare to harm a single hair on his head today! Everyone here, every single one of you, including you, Li Mo! Will all die with him! Do you believe me?!"

Sun Tianrui's words were shouted with all his might, filled with extreme anger and warning.

He was completely reckless, showing no respect whatsoever to Li Mo, the provincial 005.

These words, along with Sun Tianrui's desperate act of protecting her, his eyes blazing with fury, stunned everyone present.

The guards who were about to make their move stopped, looking at Sun Tianrui with some suspicion, and then at Li Mo.

Li Mo was also stunned, and frowned slightly.

Looking at Sun Tianrui, who was losing control of his emotions, he suddenly had a bad feeling.

Sun Tianrui is at least a municipal bureau chief, not a madman.

He dared to speak to me in such a tone, and even said things like "everyone will be buried with him"...

Could this young man named Wang Xian really have some extraordinary background?

but.

The thought only flashed through my mind.

Li Mo quickly suppressed this doubt.

Who is he?

He is the provincial governor of Nanzhao Province!

He's one of the top five most important people in the province!

He also has powerful backers!

In this region of Nanshao Province, he is the god!

What he says is the rule!

What extraordinary identity?

Even if he's the governor's illegitimate son, if Li Mo says he'll depose him today, then he's deposed!

There might be some trouble afterward, but he can handle it perfectly!

He wasn't afraid at all!

Moreover, if Li Mo were to be intimidated by Sun Tianrui's few words in front of so many people, how would he ever be able to face the world again?

Where do you put your face?

Where is the dignity?

Thinking about this...

His unease vanished completely, replaced by an offensive anger.

Li Mo's face darkened, and he let out a cold snort.

Looking at Sun Tianrui, his eyes were filled with disdain and contempt.

"Heh, Sun Tianrui, I think you've lost your mind!"

"You're about to die, and you still dare to spread alarmist rumors and spout nonsense! You clown!"

He paused, his tone becoming even colder and more forceful:

"I don't care who he is! I'm saying this right now!"

"Don't tell me he's the son of some Heavenly King! Even if he really were the Heavenly King himself! Today, if I say I'm going to cripple him, he'll be crippled!"

Done.

Li Mo stopped looking at Sun Tianrui.

He sternly rebuked the guards who had stopped:

"What are you all standing there for?! Didn't you hear my command?!"

"Move! Take Sun Tianrui down immediately!"

"Break Wang Xian's arms and legs and drag him here! Anyone who dares to stop him, take him down too!"

Hearing Li Mo's stern shout, the guards no longer hesitated.

Their eyes hardened, their auras exploded, and they fiercely pounced on Wang Xian, who was being protected by Sun Tianrui and Wang Yuanshan!

But the next moment.

A deep, resonant voice came from the sky:

"Oh, really?!"
