Celestial Night Emperor

Chapter 10: Chapter 10: This Person Is Dead, Go Get Your Dad

Young Master Jiang stood atop the command vehicle, looking for all the world like a general leading a mighty army!

As Jiangning City’s number one menace, of course he had to make the grandest entrance!

"Listen up! When the time comes, cut the chatter and act on my command!" Young Master Jiang sneered. "With me here, no one is turning Jiangning City upside down!"

At the South City Orphanage, all was quiet in the temporary camp.

A report had arrived from the sentries, but everyone present looked utterly contemptuous.

"Quite the spectacle. But compared to the Outer Celestial Demon Army, it’s a joke!"

"Heh, Celestial Demons? You’re comparing this trash to Celestial Demons? I could go out there and wipe them out by myself!" War Venerable Wutian was speechless.

Qin Tianxuan, however, cut straight to the point. "This Young Master Jiang, what’s his relationship to Jiang Qianjun?"

Jiang Qianjun. Once a subordinate of the Night Emperor, a Little Commander under Wutian. No one had expected the Sir to still remember his name.

"This Young Master Jiang is Jiang Qianjun’s adopted son! Jiang Qianjun was my subordinate. He’s now the Governor of Jiangning, in charge of the entire city’s affairs!" War Venerable Wutian said uneasily, bowing. "I will handle this!"

Qin Tianxuan walked out and sighed softly. "During the war in the Northern Territory, Jiang Qianjun fought in three major battles and never once retreated. He suffered sixty-four wounds, yet he still charged at the vanguard. He was a good soldier!"

The others also looked somber. Jiang Qianjun had indeed performed great service, but the adopted son he’d taken in was a real piece of work.

"Wutian, go over there and tell that Young Master Jiang I’m giving him one chance: get lost immediately and turn himself in!"

Qin Tianxuan stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his decision made.

This was only out of respect for Jiang Qianjun’s past merits.

Black-clothed Wutian immediately led his men to the first sentry post to stand guard.

Across from them, Young Master Jiang disembarked aggressively from the command vehicle, his various forces lined up in neat formation behind him.

Looking at Wutian, Young Master Jiang chuckled derisively. "Tell that Qin fellow to get out here. You think you’re worthy of speaking to me?"

Wutian’s gaze turned cold. "The Sir has given his order. You have one chance. Get lost immediately and turn yourself in!"

What?

Young Master Jiang’s men were stunned for a moment, then burst into uproarious laughter.

Young Master Jiang howled with laughter, doubling over as he pointed at his own nose. "Me? Get lost and turn myself in? I’ve never seen someone act so high and mighty! This is Jiangning, and my adoptive father is the law! You think you’re above the law?"

Wutian remained silent, simply raising his hand in a gesture. "Two minutes. You have two minutes to decide."

Young Master Jiang’s face instantly turned livid.

His eyes bulging with fury, he pointed a thumb over his shoulder. "I have the Police Department’s special agents, the Joint Defense Garrison, the Law Enforcement Division... every department with real power in Jiangning is right here. Do you understand?"

"The way things are these days, if just one of these departments showed up, you motherfuckers would be on your knees calling them ’Granddaddy’! I’ve brought five departments and over three hundred men, and you’re telling me to retreat? Sorry, my legs feel a bit heavy. I don’t think I can move!"

In the end, it was all about one thing: power.

Black-clothed Wutian was utterly speechless.

Just then, footsteps sounded, and Qin Tianxuan appeared.

His gaze swept over the pack of wolves across from him. With his hands behind his back, Qin Tianxuan said, "So, you’re refusing the chance I gave you?"

Young Master Jiang grinned viciously. "I’m the one giving you a chance. I’m ordering you to hand over Zhao Wuji within five minutes. Then all of you will kneel and await my judgment!"

Zhao Wuji... Heh.

Qin Tianxuan said coolly, "He’s already dead. Tell your adoptive father to come see me."

What!

Young Master Jiang was stunned.

The scoundrels with him were stunned, too.

Dead?

The only son of the Zhao Family, the city’s most powerful family, was dead? Just like that?

"No, impossible. No one would have the guts..." Young Master Jiang muttered to himself.

Behind Qin Tianxuan, Black-clothed Wutian smiled and pointed nearby. "The first pit to the south. Zhao Wuji is in there. You’d better take a good look!"

On the flat ground, thirty-seven pits!

A wooden plaque was planted before each pit, bearing the name of one of the Zhao Family’s thugs.

Young Master Jiang’s eyes looked as if they would pop out of their sockets. "Good. How brazen! This is complete lawlessness!"

Qin Tianxuan said lightly, "Heaven is above, and the law is clear. The only truly lawless ones here are scum like you."

With that, he pointed a finger. "Dig another pit. For this Young Master Jiang."

Yes, sir!

In the blink of an eye, a deep pit appeared, and a plaque bearing Young Master Jiang’s name was planted before it.

Qin Tianxuan had lost his patience. "Call Jiang Qianjun. Repeat my words to him exactly."

"In the name of the Night Emperor, I am disciplining your adopted son. Do you have any objections?"

The seventeen words were sent, exactly as spoken.

Young Master Jiang’s bravado completely vanished. For some reason, a chill ran down his spine. The man before him didn’t seem insane; rather, he seemed utterly confident, as if he held all the cards and was simply toying with him.

Behind him, however, his cronies from the Police Department were losing their patience.

Their leader stepped forward, aiming his gun directly at Qin Tianxuan. "Everyone heard that. You just admitted to the killings. Heh. Do you know who I am? I’m a special agent from the Police Department’s Fugitive Division!"

The other corrupt officers gathered behind him, their faces full of mockery. "Now I’ve really seen it all. You’re going to act crazy right in front of us? Do you have no respect for the Police Department? Who do you think you are?"

Qin Tianxuan gave them a long, hard look, then turned his head and commanded, "Connect me to the Imperial Capital. I need the Celestial Pavilion Elder in charge of the Police Department!"
