Chapter 719: An Headache
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Under the huge psychological pressure, Lang Nan still made a final decision. If he eliminated Shan Yue, he could still sit in this position without worry and even be promoted to the position of governor.
However, if Shan Yue continued to live in the central city of the Federation, he would not be able to live in peace for the rest of his life. He would either have to accept the punishment of the law or live in Shan Yue’s shadow forever.
With a light tap of his finger, the phone was dialed. Only a few seconds later, the other end picked up.
“What a rare guest. What brings Deputy Governor Lang here? I wonder why a high-ranking official like you is looking for us?”
An old and deep voice came from the other end of the phone. He was one of the elders of the organization.
However, he had a good relationship with Ling Yue. It could be said that he had watched her grow up and loved her very much.
He still remembered the explosion. He had watched her grow up and loved her like a granddaughter. It was hard for him to accept that she was suddenly gone.
“Huo Jue, although we don’t have much of a relationship, we’re old acquaintances after all. 1 was very determined to call you today. I hope you can do me a favor.”
Lang Nan knew very well who the other party was, so he didn’t waste any time. “You also know that I’m the deputy governor now. It won’t be long before 1 can be promoted to the governor. How can I give up such a good opportunity? But now, there’s this blind person who wants to stop me. She must drag me down from this position.”
“So who is the other party that can give Deputy Governor Lang such a headache?” Huo Jue asked.
“An entrepreneur who has been in the Federation’s Central City for half a year.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Huo Jue let out a very obvious laugh. “Stop joking. Are you calling to make fun of an old man like me? You’re the deputy governor. The other party is just an entrepreneur who has only been here for half a year. He has no power or influence. Don’t tell me you can’t deal with him?”
“You don’t say. If 1 could deal with her on my own, I wouldn’t have called you. Don’t think she’s just an entrepreneur. She has countless helpers.”
Lang Nan sounded very helpless. “Zhou Xuan from the Zhou Corporation is her lover, and Dong Peng from the Dong Corporation is also very close to her. Even Yu Sen, who is in charge of medicine, is willing to work for her. What’s even more ridiculous is that she has the protection of an expert by her side. Her own skills are also superb. At least, my people can’t deal with her at all.”
“Is your person that trash Ah Yong? That kind of person doesn’t even have the threshold to enter my place, so don’t speak.”
Huo Jue didn’t give him any face at all. “I can casually pick out the trashiest bronze plate assassin here. He’s several times stronger than your All Yong.”
Actually, it was not Huo Jue’s fault for being so arrogant. After all, what he said was the truth.
There was a strict hierarchy in the organization. Everyone was divided into three levels: bronze, silver, and gold.
Only by accepting enough missions and ensuring the success rate of the missions could one be promoted after passing a special assessment.
As the threshold to enter the organization was not something ordinary people could reach, there were not many people in the organization, but they were definitely elite existences.
After reaching the level of a gold-plate assassin and reaching the standard of the assessment, one could be chosen by the various elders to become their last disciple. After successfully coming out of seclusion, one could become a junior manager and have a chance to inherit the position of an elder in the future.
However, Shan Yue had crossed all the procedures. For her, there was no assessment or disciple recruitment.
Because she was personally chosen by Ji Chen, her status was already above everyone else except the elders.
“Ah Yong has already been killed. The deceased is the most important. Give him some respect. Don’t say these things at this time.”
Lang Nan tried his best to save All Yong’s last shred of dignity. “I know these people of mine can’t be compared to your subordinates at all, so the first person 1 think of when something happens is you.”
“Let’s talk about the specific process.” Huo Jue’s tone was very calm. Even so, those few short words exuded a strong sense of oppression..
