Chereads / Immortal Venerable's Order / Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: The Truth

Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: The Truth

With an indifferent expression, Yan Rufeng walked lightly to Brother Leopard's side and shouted sharply, "Insulting the Immortal Venerable, die?"

Yan Rufeng emphasized the word "die" heavily. Brother Leopard looked at Yan Rufeng in terror, instantly breaking into a cold sweat, stammering, "You, what do you want to do?"

"Slap."

A slap was thrown over.

"Wow!"

Broken teeth, along with fresh blood, fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

"You little punk, no one has ever dared to hit me, Brother Leopard. You are doomed. No matter who you are, you won't leave this place today."

"Hehe!"

"Oh really?" Yan Rufeng sneered.

In the next moment, Yan Rufeng moved, so fast that no one could see how he lifted a nearly 200-pound fat man.

"Let, let me go. Do you know who I am? You're dead. No one can save you." Brother Leopard, who had his neck grabbed, not only didn't beg for mercy but also threatened Yan Rufeng.

"Heh!"

Yan Rufeng gave a cold smile.

"You and I have no grievances. Why are you provoking me? Tell me, who instructed you to do this?"

Brother Leopard didn't respond to Yan Rufeng. He thought Yan Rufeng wouldn't dare to harm him because, under the rule of law, no one would dare to break the law.

However, he seemed to forget that the person who arranged this told him to cripple Yan Rufeng regardless of the consequences. Moreover, he had not done little in bullying men and women in his daily life.

"Alright, fine, you don't want to talk, then?"

Yan Rufeng increased the pressure. Instantly, Brother Leopard's face turned purple, even struggling to breathe. No matter how much Brother Leopard struggled, he couldn't break free from Yan Rufeng's hand. Instead, the more he struggled, the more painful it became.

Brother Leopard became terrified. He realized Yan Rufeng was extremely calm, as indifferent as a beast facing its prey.

Brother Leopard's heart panicked instantly. He could feel that if he didn't confess, he would stop breathing in the next moment.

"Hero, please spare me, I'll tell you everything!"

Yan Rufeng let go of his hand.

"Thud."

A muffled sound followed as Brother Leopard, curled up on the ground, started gasping for fresh air.

"Who was it? Don't leave out a single word when you tell me."

"Hero, although I don't know what grudge you have with Young Master Dong, he instructed me to cripple the person in the photo anyway." After speaking, Brother Leopard took out his phone, opened WeChat, and handed it to Yan Rufeng.

After reading the content on WeChat, Yan Rufeng smiled faintly. Indeed, just as he had expected, both the early departure of the bus and Brother Leopard causing trouble were prearranged by Chen Wanqiu and Young Master Dong.

Not only that, Young Master Dong was afraid Yan Rufeng's family would trouble Chen Wanqiu after crippling Yan Rufeng, so he spent a huge amount of money to have Brother Leopard go to Yan Rufeng's house and cripple his parents as well.

In his previous life, Yan Rufeng never thought that even leaving Chen Wanqiu couldn't escape being schemed against. Even in the Cultivation World, he silently blessed Chen Wanqiu. However, reality was so cruel. The woman he once deeply loved turned out to be so ruthless that she wouldn't even spare his family to avoid his entanglements.

The phone slipped from Yan Rufeng's hand, followed by a long wailing to the heavens.

"Hurting me is one thing, but never would I have imagined that your hearts would be as venomous as snakes and scorpions, even wanting to harm my parents. In this life, I, Yan Rufeng, swear that I will make you regret being born into this world."

Yan Rufeng, with piercing eyes and a body filled with murderous intent, stomped on Brother Leopard's thigh. Following a sound of bones cracking, Brother Leopard let out a pig-like howl.

Yan Rufeng stretched out his hand, releasing a suction force, grabbing Brother Leopard's spine. With a light toss, Brother Leopard instantly vanished into the air above the parking lot.

Brother Leopard was discovered again three days later. At the top of a mountain three hundred meters from the parking lot, the corpse of the fat man was hanging on a mobile signal reception tower.

Brother Leopard's death became a mystery. No one knew how he was threaded onto the signal tower like a skewer. For a while, many locals believed it was heavenly punishment for Brother Leopard's evil deeds.

However, not everyone thought so. After failing to solve the case for a long time, the Zhongzhou Special Task Force came to the morgue where Brother Leopard was placed.

"This person was beaten to death and then hung on the signal tower."

The speaker was a hot-bodied female police officer named Wen Tong, cold and glamorous like her name.

"Captain Wen, even if the deceased was beaten to death, who could hang a two-hundred-pound fat man on a signal tower? How did you determine this?"

The one questioning was Director Li, the police chief responsible for the area where Brother Leopard met his end.

"I said it, so it is. No reason needed," Wen Tong answered coldly.

"Captain Wen, you're being too authoritarian."

Director Li continued, "Captain Wen, it's obvious the deceased fell from a high altitude onto the signal tower. However, according to my investigation, no helicopters or any flying artifacts have flown in my jurisdiction a month prior to the discovery of the deceased. Moreover, there are no signs of climbing on the signal tower either, ruling out the possibility of someone hanging him there. How do you explain this?"

"Hehe."

Wen Tong sneered.

"There are too many things you don't know."

Then, Wen Tong took out her phone and dialed a number.

"Hello, sir. We've determined the cause of death."

A magnetic voice on the other end replied, "Good. Give me a brief report so I can arrange personnel to assist you in solving the case quickly."

"Yes, sir."

After examining the deceased again, Wen Tong spoke into the phone, "Sir, the deceased had his thigh bones crushed and spine shattered by someone, resulting in death. Then, they were thrown onto the signal tower."

The caller fell silent for a moment.

"This is somewhat problematic. First, investigate the people the deceased interacted with and the places he visited before his death. Review all surveillance footage. If any suspicious individuals are found, arrest them immediately."

"Understood."

Wen Tong saluted, and the caller hung up.

"Sigh, looks like I have to personally intervene and ask them for help."

A middle-aged man stubbed out his cigarette and hurriedly left the police station.

As Wen Tong reviewed surveillance footage within a ten-kilometer radius of the parking lot, she encountered a bizarre situation. All surveillance footage from the area was blank. Upon inquiry, all surveillance system computers were damaged by magnetism and underwent repairs.

Even the deceased's phone seemed to have encountered strong magnetic interference. When turned on, the screen displayed static. Even connecting it to a computer didn't yield any valuable information, forcing Wen Tong to stop her investigation…

After throwing Brother Leopard out, Yan Rufeng leaped and disappeared from the scene. When he reappeared, he was seated on that same bus heading home. Watching the sleeping passengers, with a thought, the bus had an accident.

However, this accident was one-sided. Besides the driver, who died instantly, no other passenger had even a scratch on them. The bus only had one broken window.

When rescue personnel arrived and accounted for the passengers, Yan Rufeng and others were transferred to another bus and returned to Zhongzhou.
