Door Blocked by a Local Tyrant

"Greed never ends—what kind of Way is that supposed to be?!"

Hearing Tian Chiliarch introduce the Jinghai Gang's leader, Li Yan sneered. "I refuse to believe Lu Jinghai doesn't know about the mess in Jinmen. No matter what connections he has, the Jinghai Gang must be wiped out. Every last one of them!"

Tian Chiliarch was clearly taken aback. "Young Hero Li, people like these can never be killed all. We only need to eliminate Jianmu. If you want to avenge Master Wu, killing Yu Wenhai will suffice. But if you truly uproot the Jinghai Gang, I'm afraid you'll offend Prince Ying, which would be detrimental to you..."

Li Yan's expression immediately turned ugly.

"Young Hero Li, don't misunderstand."

Tian Chiliarch hurriedly shook his head. "I have no malicious intent whatsoever."

"To be frank, although I've long since set life and death aside while investigating Zhao Changsheng, I truly lack the power to do much. Only you, Young Hero Li, have seen through his schemes time and again. This concerns the fate of the Divine Land, so we must not be careless."

As he spoke, he sighed. "I serve in the Commandery Commandant Office and have seen too many of these rotten matters in court. Interests become tangled, everyone drags everyone else in, and often even His Majesty must compromise. There are too many villains in the world. Don't let them make you lose sight of the greater matter."

Those words were truly heartfelt advice.

Li Yan's expression eased somewhat, and he cupped his fists. "Thank you for your good intentions, my lord, but this matter permits no compromise."

Tian Chiliarch's face grew solemn. "Young Hero, you insist so firmly. Could there be another reason?"

Li Yan nodded and said in a low voice, "Fushou Paste!"

"Fushou Paste?"

Tian Chiliarch
