159: What happened? Why are you here?
Chapter 159 What happened, why are you here! (Please keep reading)
Liu Kuan's reaction startled Dou Wanshan, who quickly demanded:
"What happened?!"
Startled by the scene and then by Dou Wanshan, Liu Kuan shivered.
He hurriedly replied:
"Young Master Dou is covered in blood, and his lower body, his lower body seems to be crippled."
"What?!"
Dou Wanshan was completely enraged.
He only had one son, and if Dou Xiujie was crippled, he would be without an heir.
He had indulged Dou Xiujie in his pleasure-seeking pursuits precisely so he would produce a few sons early, but to his surprise, there had been no results.
He absolutely could not let Dou Xiujie be crippled.
"Quick, tell me, where is he?!"
Dou Wanshan shouted loudly.
Liu Kuan trembled as he pointed in a direction and stated a distance.
With a direction and a distance, a straight line could determine the location.
Dou Wanshan knew Liu Kuan wouldn't dare to lie to him, so he immediately ordered his subordinates to gather, then called his brother Dou Wanjiang, instructing him to accompany the troops to rescue his son.
He himself was merely a powerful ordinary Ability User, without strong combat capabilities, and would not easily risk danger.
Dou Wanjiang was a Fourth-Tier Ability User with powerful abilities, so sending him would provide greater assurance.
After Dou Wanjiang departed, Lu Zheng arrived at Tianquan Base.
He first met with Tang Jinsong, the Chief of Tianquan Base, and when Tang Jinsong learned that Lu Zheng was there to establish an aerial Safe Zone, he was incredibly excited.
"We've finally waited for your arrival!"
"The people here have been looking forward to this day for a long time."
"Order and light, only your help can achieve this leap!"
Lu Zheng waved his hand, saying:
"No need to be so polite, this is just a transaction."
"Just remember to return my crystals periodically."
Tang Jinsong laughed and said:
"We certainly won't short you on crystals."
"Do you have any other requests? Please feel free to state them."
Lu Zheng said:
"I've already made it very clear when I spoke with Chief Wang and the others."
"The first is crystals, and the second is information on special women."
"I don't need anything else."
"Earlier, your side gave Chief Wang a message, saying there was a woman named Ji Muxue who was very good."
"I'll trouble you to look after her for me."
"I've been busy lately with the construction of the aerial Safe Zone, so I'll meet her when I have a chance."
Tang Jinsong immediately smiled and assured him:
"Alright, alright, Mr. Lu, rest assured, I will definitely take good care of Miss Ji."
"I'll dispatch a special person to monitor her whereabouts right away."
Lu Zheng nodded, gave him a fruit, and established a Mental Domain connection with Tang Jinsong.
"Good, that's all then. I'm off to build the Safe Zone."
With that, he vanished, reappearing in the air to begin construction.
Meanwhile, Tang Jinsong immediately arranged for people to protect Ji Muxue, but the men had barely been dispatched for two minutes when they ran back.
"Chief, this is bad!"
"Ji Muxue has taken Officer Dou's son hostage and flown out of the base. Officer Dou has sent people to capture her and has even threatened to dismember her."
Tang Jinsong was startled and quickly asked:
"What's going on? What happened?"
"Isn't she from the Kaoshan Association? Why would she clash with Officer Dou?"
The guard quickly relayed the general course of events he had learned to Tang Jinsong.
Upon learning that Dou Wanshan's son, Dou Xiujie, might have caused the death of a girl, Tang Jinsong's face turned extremely grim.
"Immediately dispatch people, have Zhao Ye personally lead the Ability User Combat Brigade to rescue her, and recall those soldiers."
"The base's soldiers are not his Dou family's private army!"
"I'm going to find Dou Wanshan right now. Ji Muxue is absolutely not someone he can touch."
He had participated in multiple video conferences with Lu Zheng and clearly understood how powerful Lu Zheng truly was.
Not to mention his combat strength in eliminating tens of millions of bugs yesterday, just in the ocean, that person had already controlled multiple giant beasts.
Any one of those sea beasts possessed the combat power to casually slaughter tens of thousands of people.
According to satellite observations, in Canglan City, at Lu Zheng's main base, he also kept a Golden Tiger King, which had now reached the Sixth-Tier and could smash a tank with a light swipe of its paw.
Based on the calculations from above, even using a fuel-air bomb would likely not be enough to kill that giant tiger.
Moreover, everyone everywhere was now relying on Lu Zheng to establish aerial Safe Zones to gain new order and resist the impending severe cold and the invasion of bug-humans.
Anyone who angered Lu Zheng at this time, causing the Safe Zone construction to stagnate, would be a sinner against the entire Yanxia War Zone!
Ji Muxue absolutely could not be harmed.
Otherwise, if Lu Zheng became enraged, he could not bear this responsibility, and Dou Wanshan was even less qualified to bear it.
Zhao Ye was the only Fifth-Tier Ability User in the entire Tianquan Base. He was originally a soldier and was now promoted to captain of the special forces, his position within the base second only to Tang Jinsong.
He was considered a figure with absolute power.
Tang Jinsong directly sent him to handle this matter, showing the level of importance he placed on it.
After sending out Zhao Ye, he went directly to Dou Wanshan's meeting room and kicked open the door.
Dou Wanshan was already furious. Hearing someone kick his door, he angrily drew his gun and shouted:
"Which dog dares to kick my door?!"
Seeing that it was Tang Jinsong, he paused, then quickly put away his gun and awkwardly smiled, saying:
"Chief Tang, why are you here?"
Being pointed at with a gun, Tang Jinsong's face darkened even further.
He angrily said:
"Officer Dou, you're quite impressive! You even dare to point a gun at me. Do you think no one can control you now?!"
"I'm telling you, the soldiers are the base's soldiers, not your personal army."
"Now, immediately order the soldiers chasing Ji Muxue to return. If even one person is lost, I will strip you of your epaulets!"
Dou Wanshan was also filled with anger and gritted his teeth, saying:
"Ji Muxue captured my son and injured more than a dozen soldiers. Such a challenge to authority should result in her being brought back."
"No matter how many people are lost, it's all the fault of Ji Muxue, that criminal."
"Are we to abandon upholding justice because of the loss of soldiers?"
"She is guilty and must be brought to justice!"
Tang Jinsong looked at him with a cold sneer.
"Dou Wanshan, I've also heard about your son's matter."
"I have repeatedly emphasized that although it is the apocalypse, it is not a time for some of you to act as you please."
"Who is truly guilty will become clear once the person is found."
"But no matter what, mobilizing the base's soldiers to do your personal bidding is a violation of discipline."
"Now, you are suspended. We will consider your position after your son's matter has been thoroughly investigated."
Hearing these words, Dou Wanshan knew that once Tang Jinsong began an investigation, he would have no chance of regaining power.
Immediately, he hardened his heart, pulled out his pistol, and fired three shots into Tang Jinsong's chest.
Tang Jinsong had never expected Dou Wanshan to be so desperate as to shoot him. Unprepared, he was hit and fell, but at the same time, he sent a distress signal to Lu Zheng through the newly established Mental Domain.
