However, being arbitrarily taken by the Special Task Force filled Chen Xuan with a simmering rage. Even without thinking hard, he knew who was behind this. In Luojiang City, there was no one else but the Antique Association.
As for the Liu Family Group, they were unlikely to be behind this; after all, the Blood Kill Group had just failed to assassinate him. The Liu Family Group couldn’t have moved this quickly.
Soon, the door to the small room opened, and three Special Task Force agents entered. The leader, a man with a cold smile, sat down and looked at Chen Xuan, saying, "The intentional injury case at the Antique Association today should be related to you, right?"
Chen Xuan shrugged and replied, "That should be a private dispute. Are you saying this falls under the Special Task Force’s jurisdiction?"
"Hmph, kid, I’m the one asking the questions here. You better answer truthfully, or don’t blame me for using force on you."
"Using force?" Chen Xuan’s eyes flashed with coldness as he said, "You can try."
In the capital of Tianchao, in a quiet courtyard, a burly man sat cross-legged, holding an ancient seal technique as he practiced a mysterious breathing method facing a tranquil lotus pond.
At this moment, a tall and upright man entered and spoke to the seated man, "Prince, there’s been a small change in Jiangzhou. He’s been taken by the Special Task Force."
Hearing this, the seated man suddenly opened his eyes, which gleamed like sharp swords cutting through the sky. He took the materials his confidant handed over, which contained details about Chen Xuan’s recent activities and network. After a quick glance, he committed all the information to memory.
"A bunch of insignificant people think they can show off in front of the Dragon. Ah Jiu, how is it that there are so many who don't know when they’re courting death?" His aura was powerful, exuding an overwhelming pressure.
Ah Jiu responded, "Prince, after all, he’s still young."
"Hmph, even if he’s young, he’s still a dragon. How dare ants challenge the majesty of the Dragon? Tell Xiao Qi about this."
Ah Jiu nodded and continued, "Prince, there’s another matter. King of Beiman is returning to the country ahead of schedule. He will arrive in Tianchao soon."
Upon hearing this, the prince’s eyes flashed with a cold light, and after a long pause, he coldly snorted, "Doesn’t follow the rules. But it’s good that he’s returning early. He’s been in exile for so many years, and those who bear a deep blood feud are probably waiting for this day."
Meanwhile, at the Special Task Force Headquarters in Tianchao, a beautiful, capable woman—the youngest ever head of the Special Task Force, often referred to as the "most beautiful woman in the Special Department"—was going through some important files in her office. At this moment, an old-fashioned phone suddenly rang. She opened the drawer and looked at the phone, which hadn’t rung in over a decade. Her deep eyes showed a flicker of intense emotion.
She immediately picked up the phone, and a hoarse voice said, "He’s entered the world. The information has been sent to your email."
The person only spoke these brief words before hanging up. The woman’s face trembled slightly. The person destined to entangle her fate was finally going to appear.
She immediately opened her email to read an encrypted file. The file contained just one page, but it was very detailed. Attached was a somewhat youthful-looking photo—Chen Xuan’s photo.
After reading the file, her face immediately turned cold as she stared at the youthful young man in the photo. She quickly used an internal phone to dial a number, "Connect me to the Luojiang branch of the Special Task Force."
At that moment, the director of the Luojiang Special Task Force, Hou Aiguo, was smiling and making a phone call, "Secretary Zheng, please rest assured, I will personally look into this matter. I will make sure no citizen is wrongfully accused."
After hanging up, Hou Aiguo’s expression immediately darkened. "Damn it! Who the hell below dared to mess with the wrong person? I’ll skin them alive!"
