Excessive ferocity due to caution

Huang Liangmeng, who was sulking in his office, was awakened by the butler outside.

"Sir, new newspapers have suddenly started circulating widely in the capital. I've brought you a copy."

There are many ways in which public opinion can be disseminated.

The fastest and most efficient method is through the internet.

But people in the capital still can't shake the habit of reading newspapers.

The reason is simple: compared to the chaotic information flying everywhere on the internet, the information in newspapers is obviously cleaner and more organized. Moreover, the news that makes it into newspapers is basically from high-end media in the capital, so its 'reliability' and 'importance' are relatively much higher.

Huang Liangmeng suppressed her anger, took the newspaper handed to her by the butler, glanced at its contents, and immediately froze.

"Entertainment company executive Xin Wang was massacred, and the serial killer Zhao Yizhi called to threaten him?"

"Really?"

Huang Liangmeng's eyes kept flickering.

The butler, looking at his leather shoes, stammered:

"The news about the Lü family... should be pretty accurate, right... um..."

His tone was quite hesitant.

In fact, the butler had some knowledge of the media outlets under the Lü family's control.

Whether the truth is clear or not, the matter is unlikely to be fabricated.

"So, Prince Xin is really dead..."

Huang Liangmeng rubbed his temples, calming down considerably.

In fact, he and Prince Xin had quite a few personal grudges, but they hadn't reached the point of bloodshed. When he saw Prince Xin being killed, he actually felt a little bit of satisfaction.

This slight feeling of pleasure greatly reduced his previous irritability.

Huang Liangmeng picked up the newspaper again and looked intently at the breaking news.

The general description is that the murderer Zhao Yi and Feng Nan colluded and committed atrocities. Because Prince Xin refused to hand over the film's internal resources, the two attacked Prince Xin and slaughtered him and all his capable subordinates!

The newspaper article accused Feng Nan of being extremely hypocritical, forbidding others from cheating while remaining silent about his own desire to cheat. He was accused of being despicable, hypocritical, and, when discovered, of committing a heinous act of silencing them.

Where is justice? Where is fairness?

Are there any laws?

Is there no law left?

If such a person can continue to live unscathed in this world, what a great irony and harm it is to other law-abiding people.

Looking at the lengthy 3,000-word essay, Huang Liangmeng was almost stirred up by emotions.

This time, the person who wrote it clearly has considerable skill.

The entire text is almost entirely about the law, but in reality, it's all a roundabout way of criticizing Zhao Yi and Feng Nan, and accusing them of their evil deeds.

Ultimately, it was stated that the world needs some heroes to step forward.

If the law cannot punish them, then justice must step in!

Whoever can punish these two wicked scoundrels will be a great hero of the capital!

Furthermore, this short essay contains various hints that anyone who becomes a great hero in the capital, or who makes a significant contribution in the process of eliminating evil, will be able to receive a "generous" reward afterward!

Upon seeing this short essay, Huang Liangmeng couldn't help but marvel at the Lü family's propaganda weaponry.

He was almost certain that this short essay would have a greater appeal than the bounty offered by the Li family back then!

"These rats in the capital are truly insidious; sending these people to find Zhao Yi... might actually be twice as effective with half the effort."

The dream of wealth and glory is something to ponder deeply.

This is a great opportunity for him!

At a time when the whole world is targeting Zhao Yi, if someone were to stand up and be willing to beat the drum to plead for him and clear his name, they would surely gain Zhao Yi's trust very easily!

At least... that's how Huangliangmeng sees it.

He was well aware that doing this would offend many important figures in the capital.

But those important figures couldn't take his life.

But the church can.

Therefore, Huangliang Dream must make a choice.

This is the best opportunity!

"Chen Peng, keep a close eye on this matter. Notify me immediately if there's any news about Zhao Yi!"

The dream of wealth and glory was given.

Butler Chen Peng said in surprise:

"Sir, do you also want to ambush Zhao Yi?"

Huangliang Meng looked up.

The chilling murderous intent in his eyes was even more intense.

Chen Peng was startled and quickly took several steps back, apologizing:

"I'm...I'm sorry, Mr. Huang, I shouldn't have asked!"

"I'll arrange it right away..."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out the door, his steps unsteady.

After Chen Peng left, Huang Liangmeng picked up the cup on the table and took a sip of cold tea.

His gaze never left the newspaper on the table.

...

Qin family.

Holding the token, Qin Bai overcame numerous obstacles and arrived at the small courtyard where Qin Zheng was.

Sure enough, Qin Zheng was fishing again today.

"Brother Zheng, don't you get bored fishing every day?"

Qin Zheng didn't turn his head, but sat down on the big rock, closed his eyes, and neither looked at the water in the lake nor at the fishing rod.

"A calm mind brings peace."

"Brother Bai, how's things going with Zhao Yi?"

Qin Bai rubbed his head.

"I saw it... but my head hurts a little."

Qin Zheng asked:

"What did you see?"

Qin Bai described the scene that Zhao Yi had shown him.

He tried very hard, but his speech was still vague.

After talking to himself for a while, Qin Bai suddenly saw Qin Zheng, who had his back to him, reach out his hand, holding a piece of paper in his hand.

"See, is this how it is?"

Qin Bai hurriedly stepped forward and took the paper.

His eyes went completely black the moment they met the pattern on it!

He lost his balance and swayed, almost falling to the ground.

The darkness didn't last long. Just when Qin Bai thought he had gone blind, a ray of light shone in.

A familiar scene appeared.

However, compared to the ancient city that Zhao Yi had shown him, the city in front of him was much less imposing.

The city before me is completely still.

It is an inanimate object.

In a daze, the scenery in Qin Bai's eyes returned to normal.

Qin Zheng was already standing in front of him, his expression unusually solemn.

"Brother Bai, did you see it clearly?"

After a moment of confusion, Qin Bai said in a daze:

"It's that city...it's that city."

"Almost exactly the same, except the city that Brother Ichiko showed me... was alive."

"There are still many shackles binding the outside."

"Those shackles are terrifying; they'll turn into giant snakes and devour people..."

As he spoke, Qin Bai slowly raised his head:

"But, Brother Zheng, how do you know about that city?"

Qin Zheng's face was ashen.

"Brother Bai... do you know what that city is?"

Qin Bai shook his head, looking confused.

Qin Zheng slowly placed his hands on Qin Bai's shoulders and said, word by word:

"That's... the former palace from which the Lemarchan labyrinth was separated."

Qin Bai was stunned when he heard about the Le Marchan Maze.

"Brother Zheng, the Le Marchan Maze... isn't that something made up?"

"Our predecessors have already investigated and found that there is no such thing as the Lemarchan Maze in this world. It is just a place where evil gods dwell, fabricated by those madmen of the Skull Church."

Qin Zheng remained silent and did not speak.

The latter realized it in a very short time...

"Zheng...Brother Zheng, the Le Marchand Maze...it can't be real, can it?"

"Do evil gods really exist in this world?"
