Chapter 165: Quick Resolution

Chapter 165: Quick Resolution

Smack!

A loud slap echoed, and the Light Dragon, who had been knocked out in pain, came back to his senses.

Upon waking up, the Light Dragon was slapped again, causing a few of his front teeth to go flying.

"Sorry, I thought one slap wouldn't be enough to wake you up," said Wang Si apologetically. Then, he pushed the soul communicator in his hand against Light Dragon's face.

A voice that was all too familiar to Light Dragon sounded from the soul communicator.

"Hey, little brother, is that you? Say something..."

Hearing the familiar voice, Light Dragon instantly became agitated. However, with a few missing teeth, his speech was rather slurred.

"Umm... err... back... silver..."

Smack!

Wang Si slapped Light Dragon unconscious again. Listening to his stuttering was irritating.

"Looks like it's you, then. Do you want to take revenge for your little brother?"

"Get lost! How dare you treat my little brother like this? If I ever find you, you're dead..." A gnashing voice sounded from the other end of the soul communicator.

"Don't bother looking for me; I've already found you, Guang Biao, Captain of the Donghai Mech Squadron," Wang Si replied. "Tsk, tsk, tsk... and someone like you is a Mech Squadron Captain? Seems like Donghai City isn't up to much."

Without giving the other party a chance to react, Wang Si hung up the call.

Lifting his gaze, Wang Si turned to look at Liu Yue.

At that moment, Liu Yue was making a call, and sensing Wang Si's stare, she couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

After saying a few more words, Liu Yue ended the call.

"What's going on? How dare you create such a ruckus near Donghai Academy!" Liu Yue, holding onto Na'er's hand, was about to step forward and say something when a stern rebuke rang out from the other end of the snack street.

This place was near Donghai Academy, and the pig-like scream that had just sounded naturally attracted the attention of some of the Donghai Academy security team.

Facing these useless security officers, Wang Si turned his head to glance at Liu Yue.

He didn't want to deal with these minor troubles.

Seeing that the troublemakers were ignoring them and leaving, one of the security officers shouted to stop Wang Si.

In response, Wang Si simply ignored them.

Liu Yue stepped forward and looked at the onlooking crowd.

"They are all eyewitnesses. This guy here started the commotion."

Hearing Liu Yue attempt to rally the crowd, Wang Si, who had taken a couple of steps, turned his head and gave Liu Yue a strange look.

"Can't you tell? These guys are in cahoots with that bald guy. There's no point in reasoning with them."

Understanding Wang Si's implication, Liu Yue knew what he wanted her to do.

But... forget it, she'd just unleash her martial soul.

Six soul rings—purple, purple, purple, black, black, and black—appeared around her, and this configuration was far more persuasive than any amount of reasoning.

.................

In the center of Donghai City, a phone call was made with a simple purpose: to thoroughly clean up the environment around Donghai Academy.

Additionally, there was a Soul Emperor named Guang Biao in the Mech Squadron who was to be dealt with, no matter the consequences.

.................

Over at the Mech Squadron, Guang Biao, who had located his younger brother's position, was gathering his subordinates.

Just as he was doing so, his superior suddenly called, claiming that there was a task that needed his attention.

.................

"The two seniors said that they wanted you to keep a low profile on this trip, but you've caused such a huge disturbance. Isn't that a bit inappropriate?" Liu Yue remarked, feeling a bit helpless as she looked at Wang Si, who had caused such a ruckus but seemed nonchalant about it all.

Wang Si clicked his tongue in disbelief, then offered a helpless smile.

"You're still too naive. Why would we run into this kind of trouble just by going out to eat?

Some people must have noticed our movements, or someone might have exposed our whereabouts. This was a deliberate scheme against us.

If we had actually listened to them and kept a low profile, we would have to waste time dealing with these issues every time we encountered them.

If we lose half a day today and a few hours tomorrow, what about my cultivation progress? What about my forging process?"

After seriously considering Wang Si's words, Liu Yue realized that he did make sense.

It would indeed be very unwise to let their schedule be disrupted by some insignificant troublemakers, hindering Wang Si's cultivation.

Seeing Wang Si's eager-to-start-trouble expression, Liu Yue finally sensed that something amiss was about to happen.

.................

"We have investigated Guang Biao's situation, and he indeed abused his power and caused a negative impact on society. We have already dealt with him accordingly.

Additionally, we have thoroughly cleaned up the snack street near Donghai Academy, ensuring that it is now lawful and regulated, and there will be no more cases of extortion.

Furthermore, we found a modified mecha that Guang Biao had secretly kept in his residence.

We are not sure how to handle that mecha, but after dismantling the dangerous weapons attached to it, we will send it over to you."

The mayor of Donghai City, a Soul Douluo who looked to be in his early thirties, visited Wang Si's residence to express his apologies for the recent incident.

"Mayor, you are too kind. I never expected you to personally handle such a minor matter.

I have truly experienced Donghai City's hospitality. Rest assured, I plan to stay in Donghai City for quite some time from now on."

Wang Si patted his chest, assuring the mayor.

Certainly not because the mayor was willing to give him a mecha.

The mayor also breathed a sigh of relief after receiving Wang Si's agreement.

If not for Wang Si's shopping records from a few years ago in Donghai City, the mayor wouldn't have known his preferences.

It seemed that this attempt to cater to his interests had been very successful. However, giving someone a mecha could be a risky move!

To be safe, the mayor felt he should still remind Wang Si that if he used the mecha for any vulgar or malicious purposes, it would reflect poorly on the mayor himself.

Wang Si was well aware of the implications, and there was no need for the mayor to explicitly remind him.

Although Wang Si readily agreed, the mayor still turned to Liu Yue, hoping that she would keep an eye on this young man.

In response to the mayor's gaze, Liu Yue nodded slightly, but she secretly thought: This isn't my house, and that guy makes the decisions here.

"By the way, I'm not sure if you have learned how to operate a mecha before. If not, we can arrange for a senior mecha master to teach you.

While maintaining the mecha, we hope that you will be able to skillfully pilot that mecha within the next two years."

Mentioning the mecha, Wang Si looked at Na'er, as she had spent some time at the Dou Armor and Mecha Association.

He had no idea if she knew how to pilot one.

"I've only studied mecha design and care and haven't learned how to pilot them," Na'er replied.
