Chapter 248 "In Fengtian City, my words, Chen Miao's, are the rules.
Although his expression didn't change much on the surface, Zhou Shen's heart still unleashed towering waves of shock. How could it be possible, one minute and over thirty seconds?
He had challenged that secret realm many times before and was fully aware of its difficulty. He knew how hard it was to clear that secret realm in one minute and thirty seconds.
At least, with his strength, it was simply impossible to achieve.
It was only with Miao's help that he had managed to clear it in just 2 minutes.
"..."
As these thoughts crossed his mind, Zhou Shen's face darkened slightly. Back then, Miao had given him a Cursed Doll with ten missiles inside. He had waited in the secret realm for over two minutes, worried that clearing it too fast would draw too much attention.
So, after two minutes, he activated the Cursed Doll.
The moment the Cursed Doll was activated, ten missiles almost destroyed the entire secret realm.
Logically speaking, his real clearing time should have been one second.
If he had known this day would come, he wouldn't have cared about drawing attention and would have activated the Cursed Doll as soon as he entered, obliterating the secret realm instantly. He would like to see how anyone could break his record after that.
...
Chen Miao glanced at the new bureau chief standing behind him and paused briefly before speaking softly, "I remember that for the position of deputy chief, as long as one has the experience and record, one can be promoted by successfully challenging, right?"
"Zhou Shen, although you resigned, both your experience and record are sufficient."
"With your current strength, it shouldn't be very hard to break this record."
"Ah?"
Zhou Shen, who had been lost in his thoughts, was startled and quickly became anxious as he heard Miao's words, "That, Miao, you've misunderstood. I didn't mean anything by it. I still think it's more promising to stay by your side, Miao."
"I just..."
"It's fine."
Chen Miao shook his head gently and said, "Go back and sit in your bureau chief's seat, you're more suited for that position. With me around, no one in Fengtian City can touch you."
"It's deputy chief."
The new bureau chief standing behind the others sneered and narrowed his eyes as he croaked, "A deputy chief can be promoted by challenging a secret realm, but a bureau chief can't be promoted that way."
"I am still standing here, how can he take over?"
Originally, he had maintained a respectful attitude, not wanting to escalate the situation, but now it seemed that since the other party had overstepped, he no longer needed to be overly polite. Otherwise, it would really seem like he was easy to bully.
Talking about taking over as Events Bureau Chief right in front of him, was this not completely disregarding him?
"And what crime would it be to kill a high-ranking government official?"
"Elaborate on that."
"Can a supernatural being, who's luckily gained some strength, really stand against the federation, against the government?"
The Head of the Enforcement Bureau, standing to the side, was utterly devoid of his usual authoritative demeanor normally shown before ordinary people. He stood stock-still as if he were one step away from ascension to enlightenment, not daring to say a word.
He didn't even flicker an eyelash.
Even a master who witnessed this scene would have to admire his skill.
How could he dare to speak?
It was best for him to play dead, given that he couldn't afford to offend people on either side. As the Head of Enforcement Bureau, what could he do? He surely couldn't start reciting the actual legal statutes, could he?
Chen Miao glanced at the new Head, who remained silent, and then turned to gaze into the distance toward Sankui Wasteland, patiently waiting for the impending event.
He wasn't fond of this young man.
There was something off-putting about him.
He seemed to give off a sense of feigned maturity and hypocrisy.
"Remember this well."
Hungry Monkey looked at the new Head with a face full of earnestness and spoke up, "Leave Fengtian City before dawn, and if you really seek revenge, obediently go to Jingjiu City, gather your reinforcements, and then come back to settle the score, okay?"
"Sometimes, when I come across stubborn people like you, it gives me a headache."
"Even if you want revenge, you can always do it later, right? Why insist on courting death?"
"Go back, go on, be good."
"Miao is kind-hearted after all, giving you the chance to go back and call for help, isn't he?"
"Reinforcements?"
The new Head, already somewhat red-faced with anger, couldn't help but retort furiously, "Do you have any idea who the hell I am? My name is Zhang Qi! I'm from the Zhang Family of Jingjiu City! Do you know the Zhang Family?"
Stay connected with empire
"The Beifeng Pharmaceutical Group with a market value in the trillions—that's our Zhang Family's!"
"Zhang Wanlin is my cousin, and the Zhang Family Head, Zhang Boling, is my uncle!"
"Do you understand what it means to talk to me so brazenly? It means you're as good as dead. The Zhang Family could snuff you out easier than crushing an ant!"
