Extraordinary Demon King Soldier

That's right, it's 'died in the line of duty'.

The news clearly described how the police chief of Ying City, Qiu Shi, was targeted by criminals during a counter-terrorism operation, ultimately sacrificing his life while confronting them.

The news painted Qiu Shi as a fearless hero of the people, complete with some misleading photos. If Ye Qiu didn't know the truth, he might have believed it.

Moreover, if the news had merely mentioned Qiu Shi's death, Ye Qiu and the others wouldn't have had this strong reaction; they already knew about Qiu Shi's death.

This news would only leave Ye Qiu and the others feeling a bit ironic.

Obviously, Qiu Shi died at the hands of the Ouyang Family, yet it was never mentioned that the Ouyang Family existed.

The Hidden Clan always remains concealed from the ordinary world, known only by a few, while to most, it's more akin to an urban legend.

The result is not merely due to the low-profile actions of the Hidden Clan, but more due to their control over public opinion and their terrifying official power!!!

Even if a battle involves many, causing countless casualties, false news will cover it up as a terrorist attack or an accident.

Ye Qiu and the others are all too familiar with such tactics.

What truly unsettled Ye Qiu and the others was the mention of Qiu Shi's family in the news.

It stated that besides his death, Qiu Shi's wife and their two three-year-old twin children suffered at the hands of criminals and were now missing, suspected of being kidnapped, with the police searching for them.

This initially seemed unremarkable, only inciting anger at the means of the so-called terrorists.

Family should remain untouched, yet these criminals targeted not only Qiu Shi but also his wife and children, which is crossing a line!!!

Of course, this is the perspective of ordinary people.

However, upon seeing the news, Ye Qiu and the others quickly sensed something amiss, feeling that the report was dubious.

Because they knew Qiu Shi wasn't killed by criminals but by the Ouyang Family!!!

Thus, there's no way Qiu Shi's wife and children were kidnapped by criminals. What truly happened to them?

If Qiu Shi's wife and kids were dead, they could have easily been brushed aside as also dying in the attack, maybe not even mentioned.

Yet the news dedicated a large section to detailing the tragedy of Qiu Shi's family, which appears deliberate to any astute observer.

The news is a tactic used by the Ouyang Family to mask the truth, implying an underlying purpose.

"Cat, what do you make of this?"

After reading the news, Ye Qiu's face darkened as he turned to Cat and the others, asking in a somber tone.

"It's a trap!"

Without hesitation, Cat quickly made his judgment.

"The Ouyang Family couldn't get the King's whereabouts from Qiu Shi, so they've taken his family hostage!!!"

As Cat spoke, his teeth clenched in anger, "Now Qiu Shi's family is likely in their hands. They want us to know this through the news to provoke the King and lure him out."

"These Ouyang Family members are too ruthless!"

Beside him, Lin Chuxue's face paled, finding it hard to believe.

Qiu Shi was killed by them, yet they won't spare him, capturing his family to lure Ye Qiu out!

Lin Chuxue's thoughts echoed those of everyone present. All were angered by the Ouyang Family's actions.

Qiu Shi was part of Demon Corps, a comrade, a brother. Not only was he killed by the Ouyang Family, but his family also fell victim to them. Anyone with a conscience would find this intolerable!

"We must find a way to rescue Qiu Shi's family."

Ye Qiu took a deep breath and decided, telling the others.

"No, King!!!"

Cat exclaimed in surprise, anxious as he tried to persuade Ye Qiu, "This is clearly a trap meant to provoke and lure you out. If you act, you'll fall right into their trap!"

"Moreover, Qiu Shi sacrificed himself to protect the King, dying at the Ouyang Family's hands. If you get lured out, wouldn't his sacrifice be in vain?!"

Listening to Cat's reasoning, Ye Qiu felt heavy-hearted, while the others, though angry at the Ouyang Family, admitted Cat had a point.

If Ye Qiu acted now to rescue Qiu Shi's family, it would not be a rational choice.

This is an evident trap; if Ye Qiu takes the bait, he will face the elite of the Ouyang Family.

Ye Qiu is still healing and hasn't regained his full strength. Against the Ouyang Family's strong members, he might end up sacrificing himself, which would be disastrous.

"But, if Qiu Shi's spirit remains, wouldn't he want us to save his family from the Ouyang Family's clutches?"

With clenched fists, Ye Qiu spoke somberly, unable to suppress his anger, "Can you stand by and watch as the Ouyang Family kills not just Qiu Shi but also his family?"

Cat, confronted by Ye Qiu's questioning, fell silent.

Because Ye Qiu was right; leaving them unrescued would be burdening their conscience.
