Thinking of this, Chen Zhennan broke out in a cold sweat, his legs trembling.
Was he tired of living to arrest such a big shot?
Chen Zhennan darted in front of Zhan Tianlong and bowed respectfully, "My lord, it is I who have eyes but failed to recognize you..."
"Scram!!!" Before he could finish, Zhan Tianlong roared and cut him off.
"Yes!"
"I'll get lost now, I'll get lost immediately!"
Chen Zhennan was not angry at all. He bowed and agreed, even feeling a sense of relief from escaping death. Then, he swiftly led the city defense forces away.
"Governor!"
"You can't leave!"
"Governor, arrest them all!"
"Governor..."
The Zheng family members were dumbfounded.
Because Chen Zhennan was their hope of killing Bai Zihe.
But Chen Zhennan... acted as if he hadn't heard them, and even ran faster.
Arrest them, my foot!
Am I tired of living?
If you want to die, go ahead and die, but don't drag me down with you!
In the blink of an eye, Chen Zhennan's official car and countless city defense soldiers disappeared from everyone's sight.
Zheng Ding Tian, Zheng Haoxiong, and the others were stunned.
What was going on?
One moment he was majestic, the next he was bowing and leaving in embarrassment...
He was the Governor!
He managed the entire Suhang's political affairs, and it was no exaggeration to say he had a free hand in Suhang. How could he flee like this?
Surprise.
Astonishment.
What followed was boundless fear!
Even Governor Chen Zhennan was so afraid of Bai Zihe, did they have any hope of survival?
"Zheng Ding Tian."
Bai Zihe glanced at him coldly, his words like the final ultimatum of a devil, "What other tricks do you have, what other trump cards does the Zheng family have, bring them all out!"
"You can even call the Ling family and the Qin family."
"No matter what schemes or trump cards you play, I, Bai Zihe, will accept them."
"Otherwise, when the day comes to erect my mother's tomb, your worthless lives will no longer be under your control!"
Swish!!!
Endless killing intent permeated the air, instantly bursting out, engulfing the Zheng family.
At this moment, everyone felt like a blade of grass in a raging storm, on the verge of being swallowed and destroyed at any moment.
They dared not even breathe, and only began to breathe heavily long after Bai Zihe had left.
Only then did they realize that their bodies were already drenched in sweat.
Inside the villa.
Bai Zhanhong and Bai Ruoyi breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Bai Zihe return.
"Brother, you're finally back!"
Bai Ruoyi stumbled forward, her eyes scanning Bai Zihe, checking if he was injured.
Although Bai Zhanhong did not come forward, his gaze was always on Bai Zihe.
"Brother, you scared me to death!"
Bai Ruoyi's eyes turned red. In the past few minutes, she had imagined countless scenarios: "If anything happened to you..."
"Silly girl."
"I'm fine, aren't I!" Bai Zihe comforted her dotingly.
"Zihe..."
Bai Zhanhong couldn't help but ask, "How have you managed all these years?"
His son wasn't even afraid of the army.
He had become successful!
But he was even more curious about what Bai Zihe had experienced.
"It's nothing, really."
"I just happened to learn some skills by chance."
Bai Zihe didn't dwell on the matter and instead said, "Now that I've returned, it's time to take revenge!"
"The three great families joined forces against our Bai family, it's time to settle this score!"
"Also..."
"The landscape of Suhang City is also about to change."
Bai Zihe's voice was decisive and firm: "Our Bai family will stand at the pinnacle of Suhang once more!"
"Good!"
"Excellent!"
Even the army couldn't do anything to Bai Zihe, which meant he wasn't just boasting, but possessed truly dismissive power!
Bai Zhanhong was infected by his confidence and dominance, and couldn't help but praise him.
He tremblingly took out an item from his pocket, a photo of his deceased wife, Lin Wanzhen, and his eyes welled up with tears, "Wanzhen, do you see?"
"Zihe has become successful!"
"Our son has become successful!"
...
The Zheng family.
Zheng Ding Tian still sat in the main seat.
But this time, his face was ashen.
His grandson was dead.
His second son was also dead.
Even the Governor of Suhang was afraid!
Was heaven going to destroy their Zheng family?
He was not reconciled!
"Patriarch!"
"That Bai Zihe is terrifying. Even the Governor fears him like a tiger. How can our Zheng family be a match for him?"
"Why don't we just do as he says?"
"Yes, Patriarch."
"Let's prepare the wreaths and drums. Perhaps Bai Zihe will soften his heart then, and we can..."
When Zheng Ding Tian heard these words, his already hate-filled heart exploded.
"Useless!"
"A bunch of cowards!"
"You're arrogant and domineering on weekdays, but when trouble comes, you only know how to wag your tails and beg!"
"How can my Zheng family have so many useless people like you!"
Everyone dared not breathe.
But they...
They just didn't want to die!
After careful consideration, Zheng Ding Tian made a series of decisions: "Haoxiong, go and contact the Qin family and the Ling family immediately."
"I will go to Langshan myself."
The second son was, after all, an important figure in the military, a confidant cultivated by the Commander of the Suhang Military Region.
Bai Zihe might have someone behind him who could suppress Governor Chen Zhennan, but he definitely couldn't suppress Commander Hong Tianyin!
Because.
The military and political powers are separated!
The military commander of a major city like Suhang directly reports to the highest authority!
Bai Zihe killing the second son on the spot was an insult to Hong Tianyin. If he watched his second son's corpse and did nothing, he would lose his prestige among his subordinates!
Who would dare to follow him in the future?
Night.
The wind was biting, and the people felt desolate.
Zheng Ding Tian stood alone with a coffin on the road that Commander Hong Tianyin would pass.
Swoosh...
Heavy rain poured down, but Zheng Ding Tian remained motionless, like dead wood.
After an unknown amount of time, the siren of a military vehicle was heard.
Hong Tianyin was back!!!
Indeed.
Soon after, a tall figure appeared in Zheng Ding Tian's sight.
"Commander Hong!"
Because he had waited too long and was rained on, Zheng Ding Tian's voice was hoarse and dry, which startled Hong Tianyin greatly.
"Who are you..."
"Your humble servant is Zheng Ding Tian, the father of Zheng Yingxiong!"
Zheng Ding Tian knelt down directly, his voice filled with despair, "Today, Yingxiong was harmed by a villain and died tragically on the spot!"
Hong Tianyin was shocked and looked at the coffin beside him.
Indeed, Zheng Yingxiong lay there stiffly, his body pale and rigid, clearly having been dead for a long time.
"That Bai Zihe, relying on his martial arts skills, beat my son to death."
"I tried to seek justice from Governor Chen Zhennan but failed, so I can only come and beg Commander, hoping that Commander will, for the sake of our past relationship, help me seek justice!" After speaking, Zheng Ding Tian knelt down in supplication.
"What?"
"There is such a thing?"
Hong Tianyin was already furious.
Zheng Yingxiong was a confidant he personally promoted. He had good capabilities in all aspects and could potentially become his right-hand man in the future.
But Zheng Yingxiong...
Was beaten to death today!!!
This was not just an insult to Hong Tianyin, but like cutting off one of his arms!
"Old man, please get up quickly."
"I will gather my men immediately and seek justice for him!"
