182: Chapter 181 The flood washed away the Dragon King's temple! You were born before Chen Lin!

"Don't offend the Grand Duke of the Year?"

"Who the f*ck are you pretending to be?!"

"The number one person below the Life Wheel?"

"Go out and ask around, see who I, Chen Lin, am!"

The long-haired man's pupils contracted sharply.

He didn't even have time to react before Chen Lin kicked out.

It was a simple kick, with no fancy moves, no earth-shattering special effects.

It was just fast.

And it was powerful!

Mountain-Moving Strength, the Dao of Strength, plus Chen Lin's body comparable to a giant dragon—a triple accumulation!

Boom!!!

The long-haired man flew backward like a cannonball, smashing through the fire cabinet at the end of the corridor, then crashing through the wall. Dust and smoke billowed all the way, and there was no telling how far he flew before stopping.

The iron fan flew out of his hand, spun in the air a few times, and clattered to the ground, the fan surface shattered into several pieces.

Dead!

The corridor was quiet again.

Chen Lin retracted his foot, brushed the dust off his pant leg, and looked back at the law enforcement recorder on Wang Gu's chest.

"Did you record it?"

Wang Gu swallowed, nodding mechanically: "Recorded... it's recorded."

"Fine, whatever." Chen Lin turned around and continued walking forward.

After taking two steps, he stopped again, tilted his head to look at the big hole in the wall, and added casually, "The number one person below the Life Wheel? Who the f*ck are you pretending to be."

Ye Huang opened his mouth beside him, wanting to say something, but in the end, he only managed to choke out: "Brother Lin, didn't we say we were going to enforce the law properly..."

"I am being proper," Chen Lin said without turning his head: "He made the first move."

"He... what did he move?"

"He was acting tough. Acting tough is a provocation, and provocation is making a move."

Ye Huang: "..."

So that counts as making a move?!

But it didn't matter. The long-haired man had clearly intended to start a martial artist duel with Brother Lin just now.

Being kicked away only meant his skills were inferior.

On the other side, in the office of the Mineral Department.

Yan Wang sat in a high position, his fingers continuously tapping on the desktop, making a rapid "tap, tap" sound.

It signaled the torment in his heart.

The scene was deathly silent; no one dared to breathe loudly.

"Is the Martial Scholar... going to be okay?"

Finally, someone muttered in a low voice: "His long hair looks unreliable, and he doesn't usually talk, like a ghost."

"He should be fine. Minister Yan showed him favor; he was the one who pulled him out of a pile of beggars back then. Besides, he is a Martial Scholar after all; he's got some skills." Another person swallowed.

Yan Wang listened to the whispering below, forced himself to steady his mind, and said in a deep voice: "My subjects, calm down."

"The Martial Scholar will be back soon. I've inquired; he was very strong in the past, and his iron fan skills were godlike. He will definitely take Chen Lin's head..."

Before he finished speaking.

"Boom!!"

A loud noise, like something had been launched.

Immediately after, a crashing sound of bricks and stones shattering came from the end of the corridor.

Yan Wang's words came to an abrupt halt.

Someone gathered the courage to pull the door ajar and take a look outside. Their face turned pale instantly, their legs went weak, and they almost knelt.

"Minister... Minister Yan!" The person turned back, their voice trembling: "The Martial Scholar has been kicked away! He even went through the wall!"

"He's probably dead as a doornail!"

???

Yan Wang's pupils contracted violently.

His fingers gripping the chair armrests tightened suddenly, his knuckles turning white.

He couldn't block it?

Even the Martial Scholar couldn't block it?

"It's over..."

Yan Wang's brain was buzzing, and he regretted it so much he felt like he had swallowed ten thousand ants.

"If I had known, I shouldn't have listened to that B Fengchu! Wouldn't it have been better if I had just admitted defeat earlier? Why did I have to act so tough!"

He had been the Deputy Minister of the Mineral Department for over a dozen years, using his authority to act as an umbrella for private mine owners. He had taken so much dirty money, suppressed so many whistleblower letters, and turned a blind eye to deaths at the mines.

Over these years, he thought he was a big shot, and no one dared to touch him.

And the result?

The other party didn't care about officialdom at all; they just kicked.

"I really regret it... honestly, I really regret it..."

Yan Wang clenched his fists and let out a cry of desperate regret toward the sky.

"You don't regret it; you're just afraid."

The door was kicked open, and Chen Lin walked in carrying the mountain-splitting axe, the tip of the axe gleaming with a cold light.

"If you really regretted it, you would have regretted it a long time ago. Did you need me to come here personally for you to regret it?"

Chen Lin pointed at Yan Wang with the tip of the axe, his voice as cold as ice.

"Now I'll give you two choices—voluntarily give up resistance, or have this bunch of trash fight me, Chen Lin?"

"Waaah, don't hit me, I'm soft-boned."

As soon as Chen Lin finished speaking, the scene erupted in wailing.

"Damn it, you little cutie." Chen Lin spat.

"So no one is going to fight me?"

"Minister Yan, you're pretty awesome!"

"I gave you such a high position, and you don't work for the Great Xia or the people, but instead, you just indulge in pleasure?"

"You're even more of a bastard than I, Chen Lin, am?!"

As the words fell, Yan Wang's face turned pale.

Especially looking at the civil and military officials he had raised, all of them were like whiny crybabies, squatting on the ground with their hands over their heads.

At this moment, Yan Wang knew his situation was lost.

He looked at Chen Lin and couldn't help but mock himself: "This day has finally come, but I didn't expect the one to arrest me would be a young brat."

Yan Wang didn't care what Chen Lin thought.

He stood up and walked to Chen Lin's side.

Although he was in the Star Bridge Realm, and in the late stage of the Star Bridge Realm, Yan Wang knew he couldn't beat Chen Lin.

He came to Chen Lin, offered no resistance, and just said in a calm voice: "What do you plan to do next?"

Chen Lin looked at him: "Of course, I'm going to deal with you."

As the words fell, Yan Wang's face remained calm, as he had already anticipated this scene.

After a moment of hesitation, he spoke: "You can't deal with me!"

"Although I am guilty of heinous crimes, my teacher will definitely protect me."

Hearing this, Chen Lin laughed: "Your teacher, who is that?"

"The Dean of the Law Department at Zhengxin Academy!"

Yan Wang's voice turned cold. Seeing Chen Lin stunned in place, he thought he had scared him.

Heh.

"You're so arrogant just because you have some law enforcement power! My teacher is the Dean of the Law Department. Just try touching me... ah!"

With the last sound, Yan Wang screamed.

Because Chen Lin pressed his head and smashed it directly onto the table.

"Who the f*ck are you pretending to be? Isn't he just a teacher?"

"Mad dog! If you have the guts, don't hit me! Go act tough with my teacher! My teacher won't let you off!"

Chen Lin laughed: "Fine, I'll call right now. Let's see how a Zhengxin Academy Dean is going to deal with me?"

He picked up his phone and dialed.

"Hello, Little Yan, what's wrong?" An old voice came from the other side immediately.

Hearing this, Yan Wang cried bitterly, as if clutching the last straw, begging: "Teacher Wang, Teacher Wang, you have to save me! I just gave you a calendar last year. If you don't help me, no one will!"

"What exactly happened?" The other side asked in a deep voice.

"A student from Lixian Academy came to arrest me!"

Student?

Teacher Wang's face darkened: "Come, give the phone to him. I'm eating with Representative Luo Hong from Lixian Academy right now. I'll let Representative Luo Hong talk to him!"

"Damn it, which student is so bold, daring to arrest my people!"

"I don't think he wants to stay in Lixian Academy anymore!"
