Chapter 412: Chapter 107: Death of the Blood-faced Ghost_2

Li Fei fell silent.

After learning that the provincial capital planned to establish a new university, Bian Jingru’s intention to win him over had become unmistakable.

However, as a Garrison Commander, to apologize to him, a man under twenty, showed considerable sincerity.

Li Fei stood up once more and returned the courtesy:

“Mr. Bian, you are putting too much weight on this matter, I cannot blame you.”

“You young one, I said no need for such formalities.”

Bian Jingru once again asked Li Fei to sit, then abruptly and casually inquired:

“Xiao Fei, what do you think of this man, the Blood-faced Ghost?”

Upon hearing this, Li Fei’s expression remained unchanged as he calmly said, “Sir, I do not know any Blood-faced Ghost.”

“Hahaha.”

Bian Jingru laughed, looking at him meaningfully, “Of course, you certainly wouldn’t have any connection with such a lawless thug.”

“Xiao Fei, the court has given me three months to capture the Blood-faced Ghost, and I am under a lot of pressure. If you have any leads, be sure to let me know.”

“Yes, if there are any leads, I will definitely report them to you immediately.”

“…”

After conversing for a while longer, Bian Jingru personally escorted Li Fei out of the office.

Back in the ‘Qilin’ vehicle, Li Fei closed his eyes and contemplated.

Today, Bian Jingru had summoned him for two reasons: first, to let him know who the real mastermind behind the scenes was, and second, to win him over, to let him know that only by relying on Datong Prefecture and on Bian Jingru himself would he have a chance to get revenge and exonerate Shangguan Xiao in the future.

That final part about the Blood-faced Ghost was a warning.

Don’t get tangled up with the Blood-faced Ghost!

However, Li Fei wasn’t worried that Bian Jingru might capture the Green-faced Ghost and hand him over to the court as the Blood-faced Ghost.

In fact, the most rational choice was not to attack the provincial city’s special train.

But Li Fei did not regret his impulsiveness.

He had considered the worst consequences before attacking the provincial city’s special train—giving up the persona of the Green-faced Ghost!

But now he was no longer worried.

If there was a potential establishment of a new university on the provincial side, Bian Jingru’s priority would be how to counter the provincial side.

The Green-faced Ghost was a very sharp knife!

Even if this knife might injure himself, Bian Jingru would not easily give it up.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have specifically called Li Fei over today to talk, specifically to ‘remind’ him of the ‘three-month period’ given by the court.

This was actually hinting at Li Fei to remind the Green-faced Ghost not to stir up trouble under the identity of the Blood-faced Ghost anymore.

…

Several nights later, Li Fei used the One Leaf Covering Eyes Technique and the Vajra Seal·Treasure Vase to leave Wuda soundlessly.

In the shadows, he finished changing:

His body shrunk, and he put on a human skin mask.

Thus, the Blood-faced Ghost, currently wanted by the entire Feng Province, appeared again!

Li Fei had guessed what Bian Jingru planned to do—it was nothing more than finding someone to replace him, impersonate the Blood-faced Ghost, and then be killed on the spot during a fierce battle.

Put on a show for the court.

If the central government truly wanted the culprit, they wouldn’t let just Datong Prefecture handle the capture alone.

They would surely send a special task force to participate.

What the Chief Minister truly wanted was an acceptable explanation from Bian Jingru.

To let everyone understand, those who dare to disregard the court’s laws and despise its authority will not end well in the end!

This, Bian Jingru, a seasoned official, very much understood.

Li Fei, having spent ten years within the system in his previous life, understood this just as well.

So, Li Fei decided to ‘help’ Bian Jingru a bit.

Since the Blood-faced Ghost was going to ‘log off’ soon anyway, why not make the most of it before his ‘death’?

…..

In a study room filled with various precious collectibles,

a man sat on a Taishi Chair, playing with a string of Buddha beads.

The man, wearing a Purple Gold Crown and his hair tied with a White Jade Hairpin, had a Jade Wrench made from the body material of a fifth-grade Exotic Beast on his thumb.

The Buddha beads in the man’s hand and the jade wrench he wore together were worth hundreds of thousands!

The man was called Gu Xianglin, known in the World of Datong Prefecture as the Gun King!

“Master, Master Liu has returned.”

A subordinate spoke softly outside the door.

Gu Xianglin did not look up, continuing to study his Buddha beads:

“Bring him to see me.”

“Yes.”

The subordinate left.

Moments later, a middle-aged man pushed open the door of the study and entered.

“Master.”

“How is it?”

“The plantation at Jiuchuan Mountain has been completely taken over by us.”

Master She reported.

Besides Human Face Villa, Beast King Yu Longqing’s influence within Datong Prefecture also included three Exotic Beast Food Plantations and several raw material production sites.

After Yu Longqing’s death, Qingyuan City Management Company and Zhang Family, together with ‘Queen’ Feng Sanniang, competed with ‘Gun King’ and ‘Poison King’ for the three Exotic Beast Food Plantations and the several raw material production sites.

Initially, Qingyuan City Management Company had the upper hand, but Li Fei suddenly killed Feng Sanniang, causing the alliance to break apart and bringing retaliation from Feng Sanniang’s power.

As a result, ‘Gun King’ and ‘Poison King’ took the opportunity to step in.

And Li Fei, during this time, had no intention of dealing with these matters, so eventually the three Exotic Beast Food Plantations and the several raw material production sites fell into the hands of ‘Gun King’ and ‘Poison King.’

“Well done…”

Just as Gu Xianglin was about to commend his subordinate, a noise suddenly came from outside the study.

“Assassins—”

Boom!!!!

The ground shook violently.

Gu Xianglin suddenly stood up from his chair, and asked sternly,

“What’s going on?”

“Sir, assassins have broken in!”

The outside guard immediately reported.

“How many people?”

“Seems to be just one person.”

“One person…”

A sense of unease immediately surged in Gu Xianglin’s mind.

His residence was under 24-hour surveillance by Inspectors and Martial Artists from Zhi Ge General Hospital.

Others residing in this street’s mansions were also significant figures of Datong Prefecture.

For many years, they had never encountered an assassin.

“Let’s go!”

Gu Xianglin decisively chose to evacuate and planned to leave through a secret passage.

But just a few steps out of the study, a figure, like a cannonball, smashed through the outer courtyard wall and landed at his feet.

Gu Xianglin looked down, his pupils contracting.

The person on the ground, beaten like a dead dog, was his strongest Tao Foundation Stage warrior—Ouyang Cheng who had participated in the ambush against Green-faced Ghost King in the wilderness and was the sole survivor of that battle.

Now, this sole survivor was also dead.

“Could it be…”

A guess flashed in Gu Xianglin’s mind.

He then felt a towering killing intent!

A shadow, surrounded by a haze of blood, drew a series of afterimages in the night, breaking through layers of defense lines, and charged towards him like a force unstoppable:

“Are you the Gun King?”

“You…”

Gu Xianglin wanted to say something.

But the other party obviously had no intention of communicating:

“I’ll borrow your head for a moment!”

As the words fell, a blood-red crystal filled Gu Xianglin’s entire field of view…

The person was naturally Li Fei.

Bian Jingru had told him, “A gentleman’s revenge is not too late, even after ten years.”

But he felt that revenge should also be sought “without delay!”

‘Beast King,’ ‘Gun King’ and ‘Poison King’ had joined forces and set a trap to ambush him twice before.

Now, since Beast King Yu Longqing had been dead for nearly two months, Li Fei felt he had already waited too long.

It was time to settle the remaining scores and send the other two down as well…

That night, a fight broke out first in Changping Street of Datong District, where ‘Gun King’ Gu Xianglin was killed in his mansion.

Later, the murderer was pursued by the Inspection General Bureau and Zhi Ge General Hospital across another street, breaking into ‘Poison King’ She Zhun’s mansion.

Eventually, She Zhun was chased into a secret passage and beaten to death!

In just one night, two prominent figures who had dominated the World of Datong Prefecture for decades were successively killed.

The next morning, the Government of Datong Prefecture issued a public notice:

The murderer who committed the crimes last night in Datong District was the wanted Blood-faced Ghost.

During last night’s fierce battle, the criminal was killed on the spot by a master sent by the government!

Thus, a notorious criminal fell.
