Chapter 12 : Immortals Fighting, Mortals Retreat
- The rain poured down wave after wave, and the more than 150 people from the Tian family marched forward in a grand procession. The car lights looked like rainbows in the dim rain and fog.
- Soon, the Tian family arrived at the foot of the mountain.
- "Stop the car!" Tian Zhennan suddenly shouted, and the car instantly came to a halt, stopping in front of Liang Tan and the others.
- "Liang Tan, I didn't expect you to be so fast!" Tian Zhennan got out of the car and walked slowly towards Liang Tan.
- Naturally, Liang Tan had to push the door and get out of the car. He said, "With such an incident, as the director of the inspection department, how can I not come? But what exactly happened between your family and the Mu family? As the saying goes, the strong dragon does not suppress the local snake. Why did the two families have such a big conflict today?"
- Tian Zhennan said in a deep voice, "A foolish dog dared to harm my son on the streets of Jiangcheng. This has violated the taboo of my Tian family, which is a capital offense. Yet the Mu family still wants to protect this person. Can my Tian family tolerate it?"
- Liang Tan said in a deep voice, "Even so, there's no need for such a big show, right? Killing that foolish kid would be enough. Your grand display of force has made it difficult for me to handle. As the director of the inspection department, I can't just ignore it, can I?"
- "Tian Lao Ye!" Tian Zhennan suddenly pushed open the car door.
- "Wow, it turns out to be Tian Lao Ye. I didn't expect even you to be alarmed," Liang Tan was quite surprised.
- Tian Lao Ye snorted and pointed at Tian Yaohu, saying, "Do you know who he is? Of course, I think you should know him, but Yaohu has another identity that you probably don't know."
- Liang Tan said seriously, "Please tell me more."
- "Jiangdong Pavilion! Yaohu joined Jiangdong Pavilion five years ago!" Tian Lao Ye said proudly, then continued, "In addition, the two people beside Yaohu are the managers of Jiangdong Pavilion. I ask you, Director Liang, can you still handle this matter today? Do you dare to handle it?"
- Liang Tan was stunned. As the director of the inspection department, he naturally had heard of the formidable Jiangdong Pavilion. For a moment, he was frozen in place.
- Tian Zhennan sneered, "Director Liang, considering our good relationship in the past, let me remind you that it's best not to meddle. If you really want to interfere, we can't guarantee what accidents might happen in the end."
- "Let's go, climb the mountain!" Tian Lao Ye waved his hand, and the group immediately moved forward quickly.
- Liang Tan was still standing there, his face slightly pale.
- At this moment, his deputy asked, "Director, should we go up or not?"
- Only then did Liang Tan come to his senses and gritted his teeth, saying, "Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what Tian Zhennan said? That's Jiangdong Pavilion. If I really go up there, will I come back alive?"
- The deputy dared not speak anymore.
- Liang Tan sighed, "Damn it, the Tian family has hidden themselves so well. Yaohu joined Jiangdong Pavilion five years ago, and even two managers from Jiangdong Pavilion came to help today. The Mu family is probably doomed today, no, they are definitely doomed!"
- However, at this moment, Liang Tan's phone suddenly rang. He looked down and saw that it was a call from the Chief Inspector of the Southern Inspection Department. His expression changed again.
- "Hello, Chief Inspector, why did you personally call me?" Liang Tan asked.
- "What's the matter? Liang Tan, are you currently at the Emperor's Scenic Bay?" the voice on the other end asked.
- "Chief Inspector, you truly have extraordinary foresight. Even from a thousand miles away, you can know what's happening in Jiangcheng," Liang Tan said with a smile.
- "Stop sucking up to me. Now I order you to immediately leave with your people. Get as far away as possible!" the Chief Inspector's tone was extremely serious.
- Liang Tan's heart skipped a beat and he tentatively asked, "Chief Inspector, do you also know that the Tian family has invited people from Jiangdong Pavilion to help, so you don't want me to get involved?"
- "Jiangdong Pavilion? What is it!" the Chief Inspector coldly sneered, "In front of that person, Jiangdong Pavilion probably doesn't even qualify to be his shoe shiner!"
- Hiss...
- Liang Tan suddenly took a deep breath, unable to help but ask, "If even Jiangdong Pavilion is just a small fry, then who is that person? Could it be..."
- Suddenly, Liang Tan had a vague guess in his heart. Could it be the person who targeted the young master of the Tian family?
- The voice on the phone coldly interrupted, "Stop wasting time. Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Let me tell you, not to mention you, even I don't have the qualifications to inquire about that person's existence. In the upcoming battle of the immortals, it's not something you can participate in. Leave with your people immediately!"
- "I'm telling you, don't try to satisfy your curiosity by eavesdropping or spying. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that you will live to see tomorrow's sun!"
- After saying this, the call was abruptly hung up.
- Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Liang Tan could clearly feel his heart pounding.
- "Damn it, what's happening in Jiangcheng tonight? There are always powerful figures that we can't afford to provoke. When immortals fight, mortals retreat. If I can't handle it, then I'll hide. Let's go, let's go back home!" Liang Tan cursed loudly after a while, then turned and walked into the car.
- However, at this moment, he happened to catch a glimpse of the Tian family members entering the villa halfway up the mountain like a pack of wolves.
