Chapter 487: Southeast, Thunder Awaits! [Part 2]

An Ruo Xing was utterly astonished.

There were actually giants in this world!

He felt like a towering iron tower was standing before him, and he had to look up from his chair just to see the man's face.

His Adam's apple bobbed up and down.

This was truly unbelievable.

The large man opened his mouth, his voice deep and booming as An Ruo Xing had imagined, with a unique hoarseness that seemed characteristic of his massive build.

"My name is Mo Gan Yun, reporting for duty. I present myself before you, Deputy Vice Minister An."

An Ruo Xing's face, tilted upwards, revealed a slightly bewildered smile. "Good, good, good. Mo Gan Yun, is that right? Are there more people behind you?"

Mo Gan Yun chuckled, his face beaming with simplicity. "Reporting, Deputy Minister. The others are here to report as well."

"Then move aside so I can see them."

Mo Gan Yun's robust body, like that of a bear king, stepped to the side, and An Ruo Xing was surprised to find not just one, but three more people behind him, completely hidden by Mo Gan Yun's massive frame.

There were indeed three more people, hidden behind Mo Gan Yun's body, and if not for their breathing, he might have thought Mo Gan Yun had come alone.

Seeing these three, An Ruo Xing finally lowered his head, and with a nod, he could look at them straight on. These three were of normal human stature.

The others who followed were also quite satisfied.

"My name is Yu Zhong Ge."

"I am Qiu Yun Shang."

"I am Jing Shuang Gao."

"I've heard of you."

An Ruo Xing was quite pleased. "The Celestial Lord Team!"

He looked up again at the red cloth on Mo Gan Yun's head, and the three clear characters were unmistakable: 'Super Fang Che'!

He couldn't help but laugh. "This one is the Red Celestial Lord."

Mo Gan Yun, standing at two meters and fifty centimeters tall, had a body like an iron tower.

His face instantly turned red, and he stammered, "Deputy Vice Minister, please don't laugh..."

Yu Zhong Ge and the others were all blushing and giggling.

It had to be said, the name 'Celestial Lord Team' was indeed... a bit embarrassing.

"Not bad. What cultivation levels have you reached now?"

Yu Zhong Ge replied, "Reporting to the Deputy Vice Minister, all four of us are currently at the peak of the ninth rank of the Emperor Realm!"

An Ruo Xing was startled. "What?"

Could he have misheard? Most of the other small teams had King-ranked inspectors, and although there were some Emperor-ranked ones, they were in the minority. The small team leaders were mostly sixth or seventh-rank Emperor Realm, with the highest being eighth rank.

The three large team leaders were Duke-ranked, but their ranks weren't high, only second or third rank.

After all, for patrol teams, it wasn't necessary to have too high cultivation levels. Having three Duke-ranked team leaders was already sufficient.

How could four ordinary bronze-ranked inspectors suddenly be at the ninth rank of the Emperor Realm?

"Ninth rank of the Emperor Realm," Mo Gan Yun and the others nodded in confirmation.

An Ruo Xing was speechless.

It seemed like the higher-ups were planning something big in the Southeast.

"Deputy Vice Minister, who is our small team leader...?" Yu Zhong Ge asked.

There was a hint of urgency in his voice, and his eyes sparkled.

The other three also had a glint in their eyes.

"The position of team leader hasn't been decided yet. Once everyone has arrived, we'll select the small team leader from among you," An Ruo Xing said.

Not decided yet?

That's perfect!

Since it's not decided, who else could it be but me?

Yu Zhong Ge immediately felt a sense of superiority.

He looked down at the other three with a condescending gaze and said, "You guys better behave. Work harder in your cultivation, and at least strive for the position of deputy team leader. Don't embarrass me."

During this time, Yu Zhong Ge's foundation was the deepest, his family background the most impressive, and his resources the most superior.

As a result, he subconsciously suppressed the other three.

Except for Mo Gan Yun's combat strength, Qiu Yun Shang and Jing Shuang Gao could only last a few hundred moves before being pinned down by Yu Zhong Ge.

Mo Gan Yun, feeling unconvinced, said, "The team leader isn't necessarily fixed. Don't get too cocky. When the time comes, we'll definitely have a real contest!"

The four of them eagerly asked, "Deputy Vice Minister, how many more people are coming?"

"There are still four more who haven't arrived."

"Four more? That's quite a lot."

"Yes, one is called Fang Che, and another is called Dong Yun Yu..." An Ruo Xing trailed off.

"Hahahaha..."

Even An Ruo Xing hadn't expected that they would suddenly become so excited. "Fang Che?"

"Big Brother Fang?"

"Hahahaha... What a coincidence! If there's a road to heaven, he doesn't take it, and if there's no door to hell, he breaks in!"

"I've been waiting for this day for so long!"

"Finally, my chance for revenge and justice has arrived!"

The four of them laughed and shouted with excitement, their emotions overflowing.

An Ruo Xing was stunned.

Were they enemies?

If so, they would have to be separated and reassigned to different locations.

Qiu Yun Shang eagerly asked, "Deputy Vice Minister, what cultivation level is Fang Che at now?"

"His cultivation level is reportedly at the high ranks of the King Realm, and as for Dong Yun Yu..."

An Ruo Xing hadn't finished speaking when he was interrupted by the four excited men.

"Who cares about Dong Yun Yu's cultivation level? Knowing Fang Che's is enough."

Mo Gan Yun's two-meter-fifty frame suddenly leaped six meters into the air, and he burst into laughter. "Oh, oh... I can finally take off this red cloth! Wahoo, wahoo!"

"I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. I've been suppressed by him for so long... Wahaha... I've been dreaming of beating him up... It feels so good."

"I think I can take it off now." Mo Gan Yun touched the red cloth on his head.

"I suggest you wait for him to come, then beat him up on the spot, trample him, and throw the red cloth on him... It’ll be more satisfying."

Qiu Yun Shang squinted his eyes and suggested.

"Great idea!"

Mo Gan Yun praised enthusiastically.

An Ruo Xing finally understood. It turned out they were acquaintances, just that they had been beaten by Fang Che before.

"You should hold back a bit, don’t beat him too badly."

An Ruo Xing reminded them, "You’re all at the Ninth Rank of Emperor Level. Fang Che is only at the King Level, so don’t go overboard."

The four laughed, "Don’t worry, Deputy Vice Minister An. We’ll be more heartbroken if we hurt him than you."

An Ruo Xing laughed as well.

It seemed these guys had a good relationship before.

So there was nothing to worry about.

A day later, two more people came to join.

"Subordinate Feng Xiang Dong, reporting to Deputy Vice Minister An."

"Subordinate Xue Wan Ren, reporting to Deputy Vice Minister An."

They were the other two top-ranked experts from the Youth Friendship Battle, and former comrades of Fang Che! An Ruo Xing was genuinely surprised when they arrived.

Because, including Yu Zhong Ge, this place now had representatives from the three major families: Feng, Yu, and Xue!

What was going on here?

Was this an attempt to gather all the geniuses?

"What are your cultivation levels?"

An Ruo Xing asked.

"Subordinate is at the Seventh Rank of Emperor Level." Feng Xiang Dong said.

"Subordinate is at the Eighth Rank of Emperor Level." Xue Wan Ren replied.

Feng Xiang Dong suddenly turned his head, looking at Xue Wan Ren, his eyes flashing with keen light: "Wan Ren, you’ve been working hard."

"Hehe, same here."

Both were somewhat surprised but held back their reactions.

Their experiences were similar. After the last King Level battle, they were beaten repeatedly when they returned home.

Then they were thrown into their family’s secret realm, undergoing relentless hellish special training ever since.

All resources and supplies were the best the continent had to offer.

Their cultivation levels had skyrocketed as if on steroids, and they were only released upon receiving the notification. Each of them had the same feeling: "Those guys who participated in the King Level battle with me are now just small fries in front of me!"

But they never expected that the first familiar face they encountered would be almost on par with them.

Especially Xue Wan Ren, who had pushed himself to the limit in the secret realm.

And yet, Feng Xiang Dong was only one rank behind him? This damn... What makes you so special!?

Their eyes met, and both saw sparks in the other’s eyes.

This is my greatest rival!

Though they were once close comrades-in-arms, they were now unyielding to each other. Feng Xiang Dong said sternly, "Wan Ren, don’t compete. This Captain position is mine!"

"Hehe, we’ll see after the fight."

"If I can’t get this Captain position, how face will be too ashamed to see family."

"If I can’t even become a squad leader, what’s the point of living?"

The tension between the two was giving An Ruo Xing a headache.

Just the two of you, competing for the Captain position?

You’re only at the Seventh and Eighth Ranks of Emperor Level, but over there are four atPeakButButBut... An Ruo Xing had his own plans.

And Ruo Xing’s procedures were completed without any reminders.

"Your rooms are over there, go tidy up and don’t start any fights until everyone is here."

"Competing for Captain is fine, I’ll personally oversee it."

"Understood, Deputy Vice Minister."

The two exchanged glances.

Confidently, they went to tidy up their rooms, not leaving until they were ready for the competition.

Hearing the laughter outside, both ofshowSmall fries! Don’t rush!

When the battle starts, I’ll show you the power of my position.

Though it’s just a Patrol Team Captain, it’s a matter of principle!

No one will back down!

Both knew Fang Che was coming, but as two top-tier family heirs who had been through hellish training, their eyes were only on each other at themoment"Even though Fang Che is strong, he’s already been surpassed by the higher level of training, and the eyes were only on each other.

I’ll to the higher level of training, and the eyes were only on each other.

Just as the stronger version, I’ll show you the power of my position.

"Let him in."

...

"Yu Yun Yu, reporting to Deputy Vice Minister An."

"Deputy Vice MinisterReportingDong Yun Yu, with a courteous demeanor, elegant and outstanding.

An Ruoxing took an immediate liking to him, clearly a scion of a great family!

His appearance was truly remarkable.

"Good, not bad."

Upon receiving the resume, An Ruoxing's expression turned solemn, and he looked up, "You're a Continental Hero?"

Dong Yunyu stood straight and replied, "I merely did a small deed, and the big bosses have been kind. I truly feel undeserving."

An Ruoxing was very pleased with this modest attitude and asked with a smile, "How's your cultivation now?"

"I'm not very capable, and my aptitude is average. Currently, I'm only at the Duke Rank, First Grade."

An Ruoxing coughed at once.

He felt like he had just attained enlightenment.

With seven people gathered, all so young and full of potential, it was clear that each of them had a bright future ahead.

It seemed that the higher-ups were indeed planning a grand scheme. As for including Fang Che, a King Rank, it was apparent that they intended to temper him.

After all, the two eldest sons with the lowest cultivation were already at the Emperor Rank, Seventh and Eighth Grades.

"Someone will show you to your dormitory later."

An Ruoxing was satisfied and said, "Once Fang Che arrives, we'll have everyone here. Then, we can select a captain from among you eight."

At this moment, An Ruoxing's ideal candidate for captain was undoubtedly Dong Yunyu.

He was so mature, composed, modest, and sensible.

Having such a person as the captain was reassuring.

"Has Fang Che not arrived yet?"

Dong Yunyu's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Who else is here?"

"There's Feng Xiangdong... Mo Gan Yun... and others."

An Ruoxing smiled as he recited the names.

Dong Yunyu's worries dissipated, and a reserved smile appeared on his face. "They're all quite capable. It seems like things will get lively from now on."

An Ruoxing laughed heartily and said, "Go and rest. I estimate that Fang Che will arrive this afternoon. Perhaps tomorrow, we'll start the martial arts competition to determine the captain."

Dong Yunyu smiled faintly and said proudly, "I, a mere talent, shall claim the position of captain today!"

An Ruoxing smiled in satisfaction. As expected, he was not only modest but also possessed the sharpness and pride of youth, which was how a genius should be. With a pleasant expression, he said, "It's only right to take on the responsibility. Go and rest."

"Yes."

Dong Yunyu bowed respectfully and turned to leave.

"This Dong Yunyu is truly impressive."

Watching Dong Yunyu's departing figure, An Ruoxing was extremely pleased, with a smile on his face and praise in his heart.

He had no idea that when this young talent left the Dong Clan, the family was setting off firecrackers as if it were a grand celebration.

The firecrackers continued to crackle until Dong Yunyu traveled across thousands of miles to report to the Southeast Headquarters.

At this moment, Fang Che had already arrived at Dong Hu Zhou.

He hadn't reported yet because he was searching for a real estate agent to find a house.

After all, he had brought his family along, unlike those bachelors.

He needed to find a suitable place for Ye Meng first.

Finding a house wasn't difficult.

The key was the location.

Fang Che wanted to find a place near the Patrol Hall.

There was only one large house available in the area.

"This house is a bit too big..." The real estate agent was in a dilemma. "It's said to be an ancient imperial mansion... It's changed hands many times over the years, and they say it's haunted..."

Until he heard the words 'imperial mansion' and 'haunted', Fang Che's eyes lit up like light bulbs.

"We'll take this one!"

"Ah!"

The agent was startled. "Do you really want such a big one?"

"No smaller ones!"

"It's haunted!"

"I won't take it if it's not haunted!"

"Damn!"

The agent reluctantly took Fang Che to see the house, and Fang Che was immediately satisfied. The ancient cypress trees, the deep courtyard, and the high walls of the mansion...

It looked invigorating.

"The imperial mansion covers an area of two hundred and twenty-two acres."

The agent's mouth twitched. Boss, you're just two people, a couple living in an imperial mansion? Won't you feel empty at night?

"Not bad, it's good."

Fang Che asked Ye Meng, "What do you think?"

Ye Meng pursed her lips and said, "It's good."

"Then it's settled! How much is it?"

The agent was speechless.

This young master had asked about the price for the first time since arriving here, and he had already made a decision.

"It should be at least two hundred thousand taels."

"So cheap? I'll take it!"

Fang Che waved his hand decisively.

The agent's mouth hung open.

"Hurry up with the paperwork! I'll pay, and I want to move in!"

"..."

"It'll take some time... it's quite complicated..."

"For this house, how much commission do you get?"

"Um... our commission should be twenty thousand taels."

"I'll give you fifty thousand. Complete all the paperwork within two days. How about it?"

"..."

The agent was stunned.

Holy shit, where did this super rich young master come from? He's so badass!

"If the big boss handles it personally, it'll definitely work out!"

"Then let's do it."

Fang Che immediately paid the money, negotiated the price, and settled on a house price of seventeen million taels; then, he paid the full fifty thousand taels commission.

"Go and handle it."

Then, he took Ye Meng and left.

They found the most luxurious inn and booked the Heaven Number One Room, staying there for a month.

As for the money given to the real estate agent, Fang Che wasn't worried.

Swallowed?

This fucking... I was just worrying about where to find my first business deal, and if I were to scam him for money, I bet Fang Che would be thrilled.

Ye Meng was settled into an inn.

Then, Fang Che immediately rushed to report.

With a sword at his waist and a knife on his back, he strode in with a heroic and vigorous demeanor.

Although he already had a spatial ring, other items could be stored, but his knives and swords could no longer fit inside.

It was too obvious.

The Inspection Bureau.

Looking at the solemn and dignified plaque, Fang Che's first impression was, "It's about the same size as my Imperial Mansion."

Then, he marched in with a proud and lofty stride.

"Who are you looking for?"

"I'm here to report."

"Hmm... Are you the last one?"

"What do you mean by the last one?"

"Vice Minister An is over there, I'll take you to him."

"Thank you."

A moment later.

An Ruoxing looked at Fang Che and nodded in satisfaction, smiling as he said, "Fang Che, how are you? It's good to see you again."

"Greetings, Vice Minister."

"Hmm, you've been promoted quite quickly."

An Ruoxing clicked his tongue twice, "After just a few days as an Overseer, you became a Gold Star, and then in just a few days, you became the General Overseer, and then the Two Chamber General Overseer, and now you've directly become the Southeast Guardian Headquarters Inspector... Tsk, I wasn't even as fast as you."

"It's all thanks to Vice Minister's nurturing and promotion."

"Don't... I never nurtured you. It's your teacher who's always causing trouble for me here."

"My teacher? Who?"

"Shen Zhi Xuan, isn't he your teacher?"

"So that's where the old man is... I was wondering why I couldn't find him."

Fang Che was pleasantly surprised.

"In the future, try to persuade your teacher. His temper is like a powder keg, and he's almost blown up the Southeast Guardian Headquarters several times."

An Ruoxing sighed, "Moreover, this bastard's cultivation progress is..."

Fang Che vowed, "I'll definitely persuade him."

"That's good. Fang Che, this is your opportunity."

An Ruoxing had a very good impression of Fang Che. He lowered his voice and reminded him, "This team of Inspectors, they're all geniuses. This opportunity isn't something ordinary people can get. You must work hard, learn from the others, and build good relationships. It'll be very beneficial for your future."

Fang Che was surprised, "Is that so? Vice Minister, rest assured, I'll study hard and work diligently."

"In short, observe more, listen more, learn more, be more humble, and make more connections."

"Yes."

After An Ruoxing finished his reminder, he asked, "What's your cultivation level now?"

"Emperor Rank Second Stage."

"Emperor Rank Second Stage is not bad... Hmm? What? Emperor Rank Second Stage?" An Ruoxing widened his eyes.

"Yes."

"How did you progress so quickly? When you participated in the King Rank battle, weren't you at King Rank Third Stage? Has it only been a few days?" An Ruoxing was stunned.

"Maybe it's because I... have exceptional talent?" Fang Che said cautiously.

"Hmm..." An Ruoxing rubbed his forehead, "Then you should also be careful. Everyone in this group is a genius, and the lowest cultivation level is Emperor Rank Seventh Stage Peak..."

"I understand."

"Here's your uniform and waist token. You don't need the standard weapons, right? I remember your knives and swords aren't ordinary."

"No need."

"Your dormitory is over there, I'll have someone take you there."

"Er... Vice Minister, I have a request."

"What is it?"

An Ruoxing asked.

"I came here with my wife. Can we skip the dormitory?" Fang Che said, "We're a married couple, we can't live apart, right?"

An Ruoxing laughed, "Of course not, but having a dormitory is necessary. You can go home, the dormitory is just for convenience."

Fang Che nodded, relieved.

Then he heard An Ruoxing add, "As for the other seven single dogs, they can only stay in the dormitory."

"Hmm..." Fang Che was speechless.

"Have you found a place to stay?"

"Yes, but I need some time to decorate it."

"That's good. If you need any help, just ask, don't be shy."

"Not at the moment, but if I do, I'll seek Vice Minister's assistance."

"Haha, go ahead."

Fang Che was taken to the dormitory area.

It was already afternoon.

The gentle rays of the setting sun shone down, casting a golden glow on Fang Che.

From the direction of the dormitory, it seemed like a golden-armored god, radiating golden light, was approaching.

An Ruoxing stood at the window on the upper floor, watching Fang Che walk over, with appreciation in his eyes.

And also deep in thought.

The eight geniuses, the seven great families, and Fang Che.

Moreover, they were directly arranged by the higher-ups.

What was the intention behind this? What did the Ninth Master mean? Was this... to thoroughly cleanse the Southeast?

He had a hidden premonition. The seven great families, plus an ultra-law-abiding and iron-faced Fang Che, would truly make the entire Southeast tremble!

If they discovered any illegal activities or suspicious behavior, the power of these eight individuals could push through everything!

Even to the point of bloodshed!

An Ruoxing could sense that above the Southeast sky, thunder was about to strike!"
