248 Who is the Hottest to Win the Championship? (2)
This guy must have investigated Yan Guangxun’s death and linked it to Ning Shi.
Previously, there had been no trace of Ning Shi, and Yan Zhensheng could not find him. This time, from the media reports, he found out that Ning Shi was watching his disciple’s competition in Freedom City.
He immediately came looking for him.
Yan Zhensheng didn’t care about Ning Shi’s words and only asked unhurriedly, “Principal Ning, you should know why I’m looking for you.
“My most beloved nephew, Yan Guangxun, was murdered three months ago.
“For this matter, I personally went to the country to investigate. Before Xun’er was killed, there was a small team leader called Zhu Daniu in the inspection office who was investigating him. He even had an argument with Xun’er.
“Zhu Daniu couldn’t handle it himself, so he invited you to the inspection office. After you came out of the inspection office, my nephew died mysteriously.
“Did you kill my nephew?”
Ning Shi smiled disdainfully and said to Yan Zhensheng, “President Yan, I don’t need to explain my whereabouts to you. If you have concrete evidence, you can go through legal procedures.
“If not, don’t waste my time.
“I won’t hold it against you for secretly tracking my whereabouts this time. If there’s a next time, hmph.
“Also, I have to say that Yan Guangxun killed his pregnant girlfriend. Such a scumbag deserves to die.”
Not only did Ning Shi not directly answer Yan Zhensheng’s question, he even threatened him and pointed out Yan Guangxun’s evil deeds.
Yan Zhensheng’s emotionless face finally flashed with a trace of anger. He stroked the beard on his chin, his eyes narrowed into a line as he stared at Ning Shi, as if he wanted to make a move.
However, when he saw Yi Guoqing standing at the side, he held back and only said slowly,
“Ning Shi, even if my nephew is at fault, he should be judged by the laws of the country, not by you!”
Handing Yan Guangxun over to the law was the same as giving Yan Zhensheng some leeway to manipulate things. It was no different from letting Yan Guangxun go.
The Yan family was overseas, and they had done too many illegal things.
To Yan Zhensheng’s righteous words, Ning Shi only replied with two words, “Haha!”
Yan Zhensheng finally couldn’t take it anymore and started threatening, “Young man, don’t be too arrogant! You are a genius, but countless geniuses have died in my hands!”
Yan Zhensheng wanted to avenge Yan Guangxun.
Unfortunately, he found the wrong target.
Before Ning Shi could do anything, Hao Meng couldn’t help but get impatient. She hated it when someone threatened Ning Shi’s safety.
In an instant, a powerful aura spread out from Hao Meng.
Yan Zhensheng felt an extremely strong threat. He took a few steps back in succession. He was bewildered. Why was there another Overlord?
Then, he turned his eyes to Hao Meng. After looking at her carefully for a while, he recognized her immediately.
As a Yunmeng national living overseas, they definitely had to pay attention to a cross-border force like the Heretic Research Institute. Yan Zhensheng had also seen the appearance and information of its director.
Previously, his attention was on Ning Shi and he did not pay much attention to the woman beside Ning Shi. Now that he looked at her carefully, he immediately remembered the information he had read before.
Yan Zhensheng was instantly silenced. Yi Guoqing alone was already enough to make him very afraid. Now that there was also the director of the Heretic Research Institute, he would definitely lose if he fought against two people alone.
His anger instantly dissipated.
Yan Zhensheng knew that he had to change his strategy. He had to temporarily put aside his nephew’s blood feud.
In Yan Zhensheng’s heart, he didn’t need any concrete evidence. He was already certain that Yan Guangxun was killed by Ning Shi, and he came here to test Ning Shi’s background.
If Ning Shi was just a pure Tier 9 awakener, then Yan Zhensheng would take advantage of the time when he was overseas to find an opportunity to kill him for revenge.
After all, although Ning Shi was a genius with great potential, his strength was worlds apart from that of the Overlord.
If he was killed, then so be it. Even if the domestic authorities investigated, Yan Zhensheng was not afraid.
Yan Zhensheng could bear the consequences.
But now, it seemed that Ning Shi’s woman was an Overlord and the director of the Heretic Research Institute.
He had only threatened Ning Shi, and this woman was about to turn hostile.
Under such circumstances, Yan Zhensheng had to weigh whether assassinating Ning Shi to avenge Yan Guangxun was worth it.
The Yan family might suffer the Heretic Research Institute’s revenge, which was no small matter.
The death of a nephew wasn’t worth dragging the entire family into a battle with an overlord realm force.
After living overseas for so many years, Yan Zhensheng knew how to advance and retreat.
He first released his domain power to resist Hao Meng’s fierce aura. Then, he calmed down and cupped his fists.
“Principal Ning, there must be some misunderstanding. I will go back and investigate it clearly before coming back to seek your advice!”
With that said, he walked away with his walking stick. His disciples behind him also followed Yan Zhensheng and left.
Seeing Yan Zhensheng’s departing figure, Yi Guoqing sighed and said to Ning Shi, “Principal Ning, don’t worry. I will definitely be responsible for your safety here.
“You are the pillar of the country, the hope of the Yunmeng Kingdom. We will never let you be in danger.
“However, the overseas Yunmeng nationals will probably experience some turmoil again.”
Ning Shi did not care about the situation of the overseas Yunmeng nationals. His perspective was already different.
His current goal was to unify the entire world. The overseas Yunmeng nationals were actually insignificant.
However, Yi Guoqing did not know this. He continued, “After the passage between the Mieln Federation and the World of Moen was opened, the economy prospered again and the country’s strength increased.”
