500: Control the scene

The voice was like a raging lion, full of menace and oppression.

With that, Ma Dong suddenly waved his hand, and in an instant, a group of armed thugs rushed in like evil spirits emerging from hell.

Their faces were fierce, and the weapons in their hands gleamed with a cold light under the illumination.

Some thugs gripped thick clubs, while others held firearms, their eyes revealing a bloodthirsty madness.

Seeing this, Bai Luo's eyes instantly sharpened; her almond-shaped eyes widened as she glared at Ma Dong and questioned loudly.

"Ma Dong, what do you mean? Daring to make a move within our Yu Beast Association, are you looking down on us?"

Her voice was clear and resonant, full of anger and authority.

No sooner had she spoken than a hurried and orderly sound of footsteps came from all directions.

More members of the Yu Beast Association rushed into the hall as if they had heard the call to battle.

Their expressions were serious, and their eyes revealed determination and fearlessness.

They quickly surrounded the hall, forming a solid defense line.

Ma Dong was so enraged to see Bai Luo protecting Li Yang like this that he was fuming; his face turned crimson, and the veins on his neck bulged.

He pointed at Bai Luo and cursed exasperatedly.

"Bai Luo, are you crazy? If we don't teach this kind of person a lesson, he won't understand his place."

His voice was somewhat hoarse from anger, and every word was filled with dissatisfaction towards Li Yang and accusation towards Bai Luo.

Bai Luo snorted coldly, a hint of disdain and determination in her eyes, and responded fearlessly.

"Hmph, I don't care about any of that. The fact that you made a move inside my Yu Beast Association is an insult to us, and I will definitely intervene!"

Her words were firm, indicating her resolve to Ma Dong: I am not protecting Li Yang, but upholding the dignity of the Yu Beast Association.

Li Yang was genuinely surprised that Bai Luo would protect him so much; he couldn't help but stare at Bai Luo, his gaze full of surprise and doubt.

A thought flashed through Li Yang's mind instantly.

"This... could she know my identity?"

But as soon as this thought appeared, he dismissed it himself.

He pondered carefully in his heart: if Bai Luo truly knew his identity, why would she reveal those insider details to him so carelessly?

After all, those messages were extremely important secrets for any force, and telling him would undoubtedly be walking into a trap.

Ma Dong's face turned ashen with anger when he saw Bai Luo so resolutely protecting Li Yang; his chest heaved violently, and he glared at Bai Luo, gritting his teeth as he spoke.

"Alright... First meeting, and you're protecting this outsider so much. It seems I should report this to the higher-ups to teach you a lesson. But before that, I'm telling you, today, I will definitely teach this person a lesson!"

His voice was full of anger and threat, every word like a thorn.

With that, Ma Dong fiercely waved his right hand, and his armed thugs, like Soldiers hearing a charge bugle, immediately rolled up their sleeves, their eyes glinting with bloodlust, ready to swarm forward.

Seeing this, Bai Luo also raised her hand without showing weakness; the members of the Yu Beast Association instantly became spirited, gripping their weapons and meeting them with determined eyes.

The two groups were at daggers drawn, the air thick with the smell of gunpowder, and a fierce showdown was about to erupt.

Just at this critical moment, Li Yang, who had been silently observing, finally spoke.

His voice, though not loud, resonated like a great bell, clearly spreading through the tense atmosphere.

"Stop!"

These two simple words seemed to possess a magical power; everyone present stopped their actions, their gazes uniformly turning to Li Yang, their eyes filled with curious doubt, all wanting to see what he was about to say.

Everyone couldn't help but wonder if Li Yang had finally recognized his situation and was ready to obediently join one of their factions.

For a moment, the hall was so quiet you could hear a pin drop; everyone held their breath, waiting for Li Yang's next words.

At this tense, confrontational moment, Li Yang slightly turned his head and gave Pal beside him a meaningful look.

Pal understood immediately and quickly walked to the front of Li Yang, raising his hands and gently clapping them together.

The crisp clap echoed in the silent hall.

Before anyone could react, the surrounding space seemed to be distorted by a mysterious force, and a large number of Imperial Soldiers in neat battle armor instantly appeared out of thin air.

They stood tall, their eyes cold, their energy guns emitting a chilling glow, their muzzles uniformly aimed at everyone in the hall except Li Yang and Pal.

Those cold muzzles, like countless eyes of death, sent shivers down one's spine.

It turned out that as early as when Bai Luo left the office and Li Yang was on his way to the hall, he had already quietly instructed Pal to dispatch enough Imperial Soldiers from the starship.

He had meticulously planned all of this in secret, and this was the source of his composure from beginning to end.

In this seemingly chaotic situation, a net had already been cast.

This sudden scene stunned everyone present as if they had been cast under a spell.

They widened their eyes, their faces filled with terror and disbelief.

Those who had been clutching their weapons now dropped them to the ground as if they were holding hot potatoes, creating a chaotic clatter.

Their legs trembled uncontrollably, as if they might collapse at any moment.

Ma Dong was even more astonished; his mouth was slightly open, his eyes filled with doubt and fear.

He couldn't understand why so many Imperial Soldiers had suddenly appeared.

Various thoughts flashed through his mind: could this seemingly ordinary human citizen have an identity he didn't know about?

This thought made a cold sweat break out on his back.

Just as everyone stood frozen, not daring to move an inch, Li Yang cleared his throat and spoke in a clear and resonant voice.

"Everyone, thank you for your information; it has made me aware of the corruption issues on this planet and even in this Galaxy."

Saying this, Li Yang opened a light screen, and on the other end of the light screen was He Dong's figure.

"He Dong, dispatch a regiment of troops to control the entire Bianlong Star. Without my orders, the entire Bianlong Star will enter closed management, and all Extraterrestrial Civilizers are forbidden from entering and leaving!"

"Yes!"

After giving the order to He Dong, Li Yang opened another communication channel.

"Notify all officials in the administrative center of the entire Longlan Star Cluster to immediately gather in the conference hall!"

Li Yang's words were like a giant rock thrown into a calm lake, stirring up a thousand waves.
