Chapter 112: The Right to Kill
Meanwhile, at the Splendor Mansion.
Wang Benchu, who used to be confident and graceful, was frantically dialing the phone in front of him in a panic.
Located near the Interstellar Expressway, the Minor World was connected to the main network. Wang Benchu had Hall Master Zhao's private number, and now, he was dialing it while looking at the middle-aged man in front of him in utter panic.
After hearing about Meng Yu's incident in the Qingye Small World, Councilor Wang Benchu was a bit scared too. However, he had several big deals to discuss locally, so he decided to stay.
Although this was a First Grade Minor World, it had everything needed such as a Teleportation Array and the Interstellar Expressway. He just had to handle a few things before he could leave. Yet, who could have imagined that someone would make their way all up to his office!
Watching the surveillance footage from downstairs, he saw that person cutting through opposition like a knife through butter. The heavily paid bodyguards lay on the ground, the Formations set up were useless, and after the sealed doors were shattered, that middle-aged man arrived in front of him, then looked at him with a smiling gaze!
A gaze as if the breeze were light and the clouds were calm, utterly indifferent.
Before this, Councilor Wang had realized something and hurriedly called the Planet Governor, claiming that the person coming to kill him was Meng Yu. He contacted the Enforcement Hall and told them that Meng Yu had arrived on this small planet and to quickly send eight to ten Death Squads over, immediately!
He thought that once that person entered, he would kill him right away, but the man curiously roamed around the office, looking at those valuable ornaments, allowing Councilor Wang to desperately make calls, including contacting all sorts of reinforcements.
"Meng Yu, this is just official business between us!"
Councilor Wang yelled in desperation, but the middle-aged man, simply smiled without speaking, not admitting his identity, and even his weapon was just an ordinary long sword.
"Zhao Chongyang will be here soon, you should leave now while there's still time!"
Councilor Wang shouted loudly, trying to scare the man away, but...
The middle-aged man, who was Meng Yu, remained silent, simply perusing the room's furnishings, unbothered by it all.
Indeed, what did Meng Yu have to fear?
Even Meng Yu was curious whether the Enforcement Hall would now send down a Death Squad. The Teleportation Portal was hundreds of kilometers away, would the Death Squad come by plane, or would they use a Teleportation Array to directly deploy people here?
Is it possible?
A massive organization must follow stringent procedures, and anyone within must avoid making an organizational mistake as much as possible!
Especially in the procedures involving the use of force.
The Death Squad was the strongest force of the Immortal Sect in a First Grade Minor World, and the Enforcement Hall could use it in various ways, but each authorization had to be taken responsibility for, and reported afterward. Could it be allowed under irregular circumstances, where there's no evidence and it doesn't conform to the regulations, for the Enforcement Hall to just send out three to five Death Squads based on the plea of a councilor, one phone call?
Who is he, why can't he get in, does he need a key? How many keys should he get?
Meng Yu looked up, letting the camera capture his face.
In Hongye Prison, Meng Yu learned many things. A Qi Refinement Practitioner can change their appearance, height, and details; even fingerprints and pupils are not an issue, like how he was now wearing gloves and a pair of sunglasses.
How can you confirm that this person is Meng Yu from any place?
"Meng Yu, there's still time to turn back from the edge of the cliff, you..."
A holographic projection appeared in front of Councilor Wang — the face of Hall Master Zhao, which looked no different from before, an experienced Golden Core Master with jade-like skin and an aura of authority.
He was babbling something to Meng Yu, but Meng Yu just treated it as nonsense.
Meng Yu didn't speak, he just continued to stand in front of Councilor Wang.
Finally, Councilor Wang collapsed. Suddenly he realized that this person in front of him was after his life, and at this point, there was absolutely no possibility of being rescued!
"Meng Yu, I have money, I'll give you as much as you want!"
"I can help you, we are not enemies!"
"Please, spare my life, I..."
He pleaded and howled, while Meng Yu stood quietly in front of Councilor Wang. After he had cried and howled for ten minutes, after the call had gone on for ten minutes, after the Enforcement Hall had watched for ten minutes without giving an order.
He helplessly shrugged his shoulders, put on a bitter smile, and with no other choice, stepped forward and stabbed Councilor Wang to death.
Meanwhile, Hall Master Zhao clenched his fist tightly, alongside the big shots of the Enforcement Hall, looking at the scene on the screen with flushed faces.
This was Meng Yu's second slap in the face!
There he was, in Councilor Wang's room, waiting for them, yet he just couldn't give the order to send out the Death Squad through the Teleportation Array!
There was no evidence to prove that the man in front of Councilor Wang was Meng Yu!
Deploying the Death Squad would be against the rules!
Councilor Wang could die, but the rules could not be broken!
Stay connected through empire
Of course, the most important thing was, even if he sent the Death Squad and broke the rules, could they capture Meng Yu?
After being beaten up, authority started to reason, started to understand that impatience could spoil great plans.
Meng Yu killed, Meng Yu left, and not long after, the detectives swarmed in. At this time, what the entirety of the Enforcement Hall hoped was that the middle-aged man was not Meng Yu.
That way, everyone could save face.
But soon, news came that the middle-aged man's identity was fake, and the traces he left at the scene, such as the discarded glove, proved that the person was indeed Meng Yu!
What did this imply? Was it Meng Yu's carelessness?
No, everyone in the Enforcement Hall knew very well what the public opinion would be.
Meng Yu wasn't showing off anymore, wasn't flaunting his might, wasn't making a grand spectacle. He had disguised himself and acted quietly, stabbing Councilor Wang to death, indicating that in any First Grade Minor World of the Immortal Sect, Meng Yu could kill whoever he wanted to, without any issue.
In the first battle, he bravely withstood the attack of the Five Peaks.
On the second planet, his despicable and shameless actions chilled people's hearts.
However, no one mocked Meng Yu's evasion, as he had already proven himself to be tough in the first battle. As for the rest... Councilor Wang had been hopping up and down during the hearing, directly confronting and accusing Meng Yu.
This was Meng Yu's swift and gratifying revenge.
What happened on the second planet taught everyone that as long as you resided in a First Grade Minor World, if you offended Meng Yu, then congratulations, Meng Yu could take out anyone.
No one could possibly have a Death Squad by their side at all times.
The day Councilor Wang died, many people fled from the First Grade Worlds and moved to the Second-Order World, and then someone raised a question.
Is the Second-Order Minor World also unsafe?
If Meng Yu didn't reveal his true identity but disguised himself like this to carry out assassinations, what then?
Alright, some people fled to the Third Grade World, but then what?
The third planet's battle took place a little over a month later, and the target of the attack was another construction factory of Star Industrial.
