Chapter 371: Chapter 371: The Wheel of Fortune Turns_1
Wan Yang’s words regained the upper hand.
He loudly accused, "Moreover, Miss Xia is in your arms, and Falcon Squad is standing by your side. Could it be, you intend to use Miss Xia as a hostage?"
Chu Feng was greatly alarmed upon hearing this and immediately summoned all his subordinates, saying, "Prepare for battle, capture Ye Ming! Remember not to harm Miss Xia!"
Ye Ming’s expression was cold, and he no longer had the patience to waste words with them.
With just a few words from Wan Yang, Chu Feng was ready to point his guns at him. Faced with such a group of people, why should he continue to hold back?
At this moment, Wang Yating’s temper also flared up.
Seeing Chu Feng’s men daring to draw their guns, she immediately shouted, "Falcon Squad, all members, protect Ye Ming!"
With a clattering sound, all members of Falcon Squad raised their weapons.
In their hearts, Ye Ming was sacred and inviolable. If anyone dared to harm Ye Ming, no matter who it was, they would consider them an enemy and naturally show no mercy.
The two groups immediately faced off against each other, and a major battle seemed imminent.
Wan Yang hastily retreated a few steps, already frightened and weak at the knees. If a real fight erupted, the situation would truly escalate, and if the matter was exposed, his life would be at risk.
Therefore, he planned to immediately withdraw from the battle and leave quietly.
Just as both sides were on the edge of a tense standoff, suddenly, a gust of wind swept through.
A helicopter gradually descended from the sky.
An authoritative voice of interrogation came from above, "Chu Feng, what are your intentions? Are you trying to provoke infighting among us?"
Everyone looked up at that moment.
As the helicopter slowly descended, the figure of Yang Tianxiong came into everyone’s view.
Chu Feng’s heart trembled, and he hurriedly called out, "Why have you come?"
He might manage affairs, but only those that were apparent on the surface. Yang Tianxiong was the one with real power!
In the presence of Yang Tianxiong, Chu Feng’s rank was not high enough.
Facing Yang Tianxiong’s questioning, Chu Feng didn’t dare to show the slightest bit of anger. Instead, he wore a smile and asked, "Mr. Yang, what did you mean by your words just now?"
"I was merely capturing a criminal. How could I provoke any infighting among you? Even if you gave me a hundred times the courage, I wouldn’t dare to oppose you and cause trouble without reason!"
After landing, Yang Tianxiong let out a cold snort and said, "Is there anything you wouldn’t dare to do!!??"
"You’ve already done the deed, and now you want to deny it?"
Chu Feng was a crafty man, and after being subjected to Yang Tianxiong’s cynically charged words, he gradually calmed down and began to ponder Yang Tianxiong’s statement.
After thinking it over, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
He seemed to have suddenly understood something. The person Yang Tianxiong was referring to could only be one person on the scene who met the criteria—Ye Ming!
Yang Tianxiong didn’t give him the chance to continue speaking; instead, he turned his gaze to Ye Ming.
In front of Ye Ming, his expression changed immediately, and with an affable smile on his face, he said, "Little Ye, you left in such a hurry last time that I didn’t get the chance to confer your title!"
"This time, I came in haste too and cannot organize a ceremony for you, which truly puts you at an inconvenience."
Ye Ming quickly shook his head, full of respect for Yang Tianxiong, and said, "Mr. Yang, you’re too kind. I don’t need these formalities; as long as I can make a contribution to the Martial Department, that is enough for me."
"The fact that you’re willing to confer a title on me already honors me greatly. How could I possibly ask for a ceremony?"
Yang Tianxiong was very pleased, continuously patting Ye Ming’s shoulder, his eyes filled with affection.
Chu Feng was treated as if he were air, sidelined, and what’s more, when the men he brought saw what Yang Tianxiong did, hundreds of warriors immediately distanced themselves from Chu Feng, their eyes filled with resentment.
Because of him, they had almost attacked their direct superior, which was simply unforgivable.
But Chu Feng’s status was there; had he been a commoner, he probably would have been dead already.
Chu Feng had never suffered such humiliation, not only had he recognized the wrong person, but he had also almost completely offended Yang Tianxiong and the force behind him.
If it had really come to that, losing his position would be the least of his worries, whether he could keep his head was another matter.
"Wan Yang, do you have anything else to say now?" Chu Feng immediately turned his murderous gaze onto Wan Yang.
Now that things were clear, he naturally had to deal with this troublemaker who had spread false rumors.
Wan Yang felt a tremor of dread, sensing that trouble was at hand.
When he thought to run, he discovered he was already trapped.
He didn’t dare make any rash moves and hurriedly tried to explain, "Perhaps... there’s been a misunderstanding."
"Whether it’s a misunderstanding or not, you’re coming with me, and we can explain things properly afterward!" Chu Feng’s face had turned utterly dark.
Wan Yang glared at him venomously, feeling a sense of helplessness rising in his heart.
He had no manpower with him, only two bodyguards; how could he dare to confront Chu Feng?
At this point, he could only use verbal threats.
"Chu Feng, you know who I am, I am from the Wan Family! By doing this, you’re going against our entire Wan Family!"
"You better think this through carefully!"
Chu Feng snorted coldly and said, "If you really did something to Miss Xia, if you harbored any ill intentions towards her, it wouldn’t matter if you were from the Wan Family, nobody would be able to save you!"
"We will see what’s what after you come with me!"
"Take him!"
At that command, the air instantly fell silent.
Due to Chu Feng’s earlier misjudgment, he had lost the hearts of the people, and no one heeded his orders.
Seeing this, Wan Yang’s hope reignited, and he summoned his two bodyguards to his defense, planning to escape.
As long as he could just make it home, none of this would matter.
He believed his family’s power could protect him.
But Ye Ming wasn’t about to let him off so easily.
"Falcon Squad, heed my command, detain Wan Yang and hand him over to Mr. Chu for interrogation!"
Ye Ming too was playing the strategy of using others to eliminate his enemies.
He didn’t plan to act personally, but instead dumped the responsibility onto Chu Feng, letting him handle it.
The crowd responded in unison, encircling Wan Yang completely.
With his back teeth gritted tightly, Wan Yang cursed his luck, never anticipating it would turn this quickly.
With no other choice, he surrendered...
"Ye Ming, our business isn’t over, you just watch, I’ll make sure you pay dearly for this!" Wan Yang said viciously, and then, he was seized by two Falcon Squad members, brought before Chu Feng.
