Chapter 866 - 865: Fated Rivals
After Desan handled four people here, the young man on the other side took care of the remaining seven or eight people on his own!The other three people with the young man sat there calmly, showing no intention of making a move.
Never mind how impressive the young man’s Spiritual Talisman skills are, just looking at his fighting talisman level, it surpassed everyone present. She could see that the other three followed his lead.
Hawkeye?
Beisitian thought for a moment; it seems this person is affiliated with the Military Department, but what’s the deal with the Association?
She always thought the Association had a national background.
The fight ended so swiftly that Zhang Di couldn’t react in time. When he did come around and thought of running, he found himself surrounded.
The young man looked at Zhang Di with a sneer, "And there’s one more thing I forgot to say, welcome back home!"
Actually, even though he fled overseas, Hawkeye could still reach him. It just seemed too resource-consuming, so they simply issued some related tasks, letting mercenaries over there deal with it. Because of this, even though Zhang Di fled overseas, he couldn’t find peace for a moment, otherwise, why would he return?
Zhang Di fell into the net of justice, and this was the first time Beisitian witnessed Hawkeye’s process of capturing someone.
After Zhang Di was captured, all those people lining up for ’good medicine’ became furious, accusing the young man and strongly demanding Zhang Di’s release, restoring his freedom!
These idiots were completely ignored by the young man who let Hawkeye’s people knock them out and carry them away.
After handling all this, the young man turned and walked to Beisitian, changing from his previous cold demeanor, and smiled at her, "Are you Doctor Bei?"
Beisitian nodded.
"I’ve long heard of your name. I’m called Cheng Shuwei, affiliated with Hawkeye. I’ve worked with Commander Luo before, and his skills are impressive, he even saved my life!"
Beisitian was a bit surprised, so Luo Xudong knew about Hawkeye before. It seems Hawkeye is kept secret from the public; she’s never heard him mention it.
But now this leaves Beisitian puzzled—if it’s supposed to be secret, why suddenly perform all this in her presence?
She didn’t think it was just a coincidence that she bumped into this.
The fake Shi Family members brought by Zhang Di were all under Hawkeye’s control, and the fools Cheng Shuwei spoke of were knocked out and carried away as well, leaving the courtyard in peace.
Beisitian responded politely, seeing that this Cheng Shuwei came over specifically to make his presence known.
As for why, Beisitian felt that the Military Department, starting to showcase its true power to Qingyu, was seeking genuine cooperation?
"I’d like to see Qi Xindao," Beisitian said.
Since Hawkeye had taken control here, Qi Xindao must be in their hands.
Cheng Shuwei paused for a moment, then said, "This old gentleman is not very cooperative, and news just came in that he refuses to talk about anything."
"So what?" Beisitian raised an eyebrow and asked back.
Cheng Shuwei said: "... So if Doctor Bei has any method, we hope you could assist us a bit."
This was his way of speaking, habitually leaving things half-said, letting the other party finish so that he could maintain the upper hand. If Beisitian continued the conversation, it would seem she was pleading to help persuade Qi Xindao, rather than Cheng Shuwei asking for help.
Cheng Shuwei wasn’t saying this on purpose; he was just used to it...
Facing Beisitian, he was still sincere, after all, Beisitian is not only Commander Luo’s wife but also a Mystic Doctor with Great Power, and the Military Department thinks so too.
Hawkeye captured this entire group in one swift move as a display of capability to Beisitian.
Beisitian indeed felt quite shocked in her heart. The Shi Family is a big family, and Shi Guang woke up to say this group had already taken control of the Shi Family. Regardless of how they managed it, at least the big family was left helpless, and yet Hawkeye eliminated this group in a heartbeat, showing that Hawkeye is the true strength of the Military Department.
After a brief reflection, Beisitian realized that the Association might just be the surface-level national power—after all, people in the Association are scattered and untidy, with no strong structure, more like a gathering of some Mystic Doctor forces from the civilian side.
Beisitian had once thought, does such a large regime rely merely on this capability?
Now the answer emerged.
When meeting Qi Xindao, the old man was sitting on a stool, panting, leaning on a walking stick angrily.
Upon hearing the door, he immediately looked up and cursed, "Get out!"
But unexpectedly, it was a familiar face that came in, seeing this familiar face made his expression even more sullen.
Desan walked in, putting away his playful demeanor, looked at Qi Xindao with deep feelings, sighed, and said, "Old brother, seeing you living so unsatisfactorily... I am relieved!"
Qi Xindao’s face started to gather clouds: "..."
Following right behind was Beisitian: "..."
After Desan finished speaking, a happy smile spread across his face, "Old brother, how did you end up like this, tell me, so I can have a good laugh!"
Beisitian: "???"
Third Doctor, we came in for some persuasion, not to add insult to injury!
Qi Xindao sneered coldly, "How are you still alive, living as a feces-producing machine? If I were you, I’d jump into the Yellow River right now."
Desan replied with a forced smile, "At least my feces-producing has some use. What about you? Starting to help a tyrant now?"
Qi Xindao angrily retorted, "What do you mean helping a tyrant, I live openly and honestly, never doing anything I’d regret, unlike you, hiding your name and dodging around..."
At this point, Desan’s face suddenly grew dark, a stark contrast to his previous teasing demeanor.
Qi Xindao seemed to realize he had misspoken; his voice lowered significantly as he glanced around for a moment and changed the subject: "What are you here for, old rascal?"
Desan wasn’t happy and didn’t want to talk, keeping a gloomy face.
Seeing this, Qi Xindao sneered again, "You’re not spending another 50 bucks, crashing someone’s dinner for a free meal, are you? A Great Power living like you might as well jump into the Yellow River!"
Desan’s face turned red upon hearing this and angrily said, "50 bucks is quite a lot, I didn’t even know them, yet I gave them 50 bucks, that’s a gift you don’t have to repay!"
Beisitian gave Desan a sidelong glance, her expression saying ’you’ve done such a thing’ made Desan’s face even redder.
Seeing that the two weren’t real enemies but rather joyful rivals, Beisitian’s little heart calmed down a bit, then she said, "Mr. Qi, those people had evil intentions. Why didn’t you leave?"
Qi Xindao cast a glance at Beisitian, coldly asking, "Who are you?"
Desan wouldn’t stand for this, "What does it matter who she is, just answer honestly!"
He went all out when arguing with Qi Xindao.
Qi Xindao ignored him. For someone Desan defended like this, he still said, "My granddaughter is in their hands, can I really not listen to them?"
