When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.

Chapter 100: Disarming, Taking Down Xu Feihu
8:40 p.m.

Inside the Canghai City dock, a small light illuminated a burly figure with his upper body bare.

This is the container yard inside the dock. Some of the containers piled up around are loaded with goods, while others have been converted into dwellings for homeless people or the poor.

Xu Feihu is currently standing in one of the converted shipping containers.

This is his temporary lodging. At midnight, Xu Feihu will board a pre-arranged black boat to smuggle himself out of the country and stay there until things calm down before returning.

At that time, Qi Fangwei should have already been promoted and could have easily given himself a new identity and made a comeback.

Thinking this, Xu Feihu bandaged his wound, put on his trench coat, and sat quietly, waiting for midnight to arrive.

Ping——

A loud crash suddenly rang out, as if something had been thrown onto the container, followed by a hissing sound and plumes of white smoke seeping in from the gaps in the container.

"Tear gas!"

Xu Feihu's eyes narrowed. "Not good!"

······
······
At the same time, at the edge of the storage yard, Bai Ze and Lu Zhiping stood on a container, watching the executors throw tear gas everywhere.

"The martial arts association cannot carry firearms like security guards, but we are not helpless when facing martial artists who are stronger than us."

Looking at the billowing white smoke, Lu Zhiping picked up a small canister from the box beside him and said with a smile, "Even the strongest martial artists below the three-star level still need to breathe. Tear gas is the best way to deal with them."

Including Bai Ze, there are a total of ten executors. Nine of them are now wearing high-grade stab-proof suits, gas masks, and throwing tear gas.

Tear gas is highly irritating and can cause intense burning sensations to a person's eyes, facial skin, and respiratory tract, making it impossible to open their eyes and even causing incessant coughing.

Even if a martial artist has practiced external martial arts and is not afraid of skin burns, they still have to worry about damage to their eyes and respiratory tract.

Even the most intense physical training can't possibly train the respiratory tract and eyes, right?
Even if a martial artist has a much larger lung capacity than an ordinary person, it is impossible for them to hold their breath for a long time, especially during combat.

Therefore, even against a three-star warrior, tear gas still has a significant effect.

It just goes to show that times are changing. Throwing quicklime is outdated now; tear gas is much more effective.

A commotion was already breaking out in the area shrouded in white smoke, with people rushing out – these were the “residents” of the area.

The enforcers carried instruments that could detect fluctuations in internal energy and swept them around outside, allowing those without fluctuations in internal energy to escape.

As for those with fluctuations in internal energy, they are definitely suspects; martial artists wouldn't be reduced to living in shipping containers.

As time passed, fewer and fewer people ran out, but the white smoke did not dissipate; instead, it grew thicker and thicker.

In order to capture Xu Feihu, Lu Zhiping had two large boxes of tear gas brought in, enough to suffocate even a three-star martial artist.

Seeing that no one was running away, the officers, armed with tear gas and weapons, began to tighten the encirclement.

At that moment, a dark figure darted out from between the two containers.

"He's here!"

"Tear gas!"

Six tear gas canisters were thrown at the shadowy figure simultaneously, and four nearby enforcers surrounded and attacked with knives and swords.

All the executors were two-star martial artists. Even without someone as monstrous as Bai Ze, they could still surround Xu Feihu, a three-star martial artist, with the help of tear gas. The outcome seemed to be already predetermined.

Bang!
A muffled thud suddenly rang out, and one of the executors was sent flying like a cannonball.

The dark figure moved like a tiger or rhinoceros released from its cage, its arms swinging to simultaneously deflect the swords and blades that were attacking it. With a single, powerful thrust, it slammed the executor in front of it against a nearby container.

The executor didn't even have time to let out a scream before he died, sliding down like mud.

He was hit and killed.

The strong wind dissipated some of the white smoke, and the black steel armor came into everyone's view at that moment.

"Exoskeleton armor?!"

Lu Zhiping exclaimed in surprise, "How could he possibly have an exoskeleton armor!"

Immediately, Lu Zhiping came to his senses and couldn't help but curse, "Damn Qi Fangwei!"

Exoskeleton armor is equipment with even stricter restrictions than firearms, and is generally only possessed by members of special operations units who specialize in handling various major incidents.

However, in order to ensure that local security agencies have protection when necessary, each city security agency will also reserve two sets of exoskeleton armor.

Clearly, one of the two suits of armor from Canghai City was misappropriated and is now on Xu Feihu's body.

No wonder Xu Feihu made a special trip back to his villa, and no wonder Qi Fangwei wasn't worried about Xu Feihu being caught before.

It can only be said that Director Qi is an old hand at abusing public power for private gain.

The exoskeleton armor's helmet has an advanced air filtration system, rendering tear gas completely ineffective against Xu Feihu.

The black armored figure charged wildly, easily breaking through the encirclement, then turned its head and precisely locked onto Bai Ze and his companion in the distance.

kill!

He didn't speak, but the murderous intent in his eyes clearly revealed his intentions. His steel leg armor slammed into the ground, his feet cracking the earth, and he charged forward like a black lightning bolt.

"Let's go!" Lu Zhiping's expression changed drastically.

"Don't worry."

Instead of retreating, Bai Ze advanced, kicking the box containing tear gas toward the black lightning, and drew his longsword.

Zheng!
The sword cleaved open the box, even breaking apart a significant amount of tear gas inside, and white smoke and gas containers enveloped Xu Feihu from head to toe.

Xu Feihu was naturally not afraid at all. He didn't even need to use a blocking stance and rushed straight into the white smoke.

However, at that very moment, Bai Ze's voice suddenly rang out.

"Remove armor."

The helmet of the exoskeleton armor automatically detached from Xu Feihu's head, and thick white smoke hit Xu Feihu's face directly.

"what!"

His eyes stung as if they were on fire. Xu Feihu flailed his arms wildly, creating gusts of wind as he tried to disperse the tear gas.

"Remove armor, remove armor, remove armor."

The sounds rang out one after another as the chest armor, arm armor, and leg armor detached from Xu Feihu's body, and in a short time, the exoskeleton armor was removed from him.

The sharp blade tore through the white smoke and slashed at Xu Feihu's left arm. Countless serrations slashed wildly along the blade, tearing through his clothes and slicing through his flesh.

"Roar!"

The excruciating pain made Xu Feihu roar wildly. He was like a mad tiger, his left arm muscles bulging, and he forcefully clamped the sword blade with his arm, grabbing the blade with his backhand.

Despite the jagged edges tearing at his palm, Xu Feihu, like a mad tiger, formed a claw with his other hand, tearing through the air and grabbing at Bai Ze's throat.

Bang!
Qi armor spontaneously materialized, blocking Xu Feihu's throat. Bai Ze reached out and grabbed Xu Feihu's wrist.

The internal energy burst forth with a loud bang, accompanied by a fierce wind and a surge of heat.

"Blue silver entanglement."

An invisible aura materialized along Xu Feihu's arm, transforming into vines that entangled his right hand. At the same time, Bai Ze gripped the Xiaolian Sword and pulled hard, causing blood to spurt out.

In the brief exchange, Bai Ze, with his calculated advantage, severely injured Xu Feihu, severing one of his arms and gaining a complete upper hand.

Xu Feihu's left arm was torn apart by the serrated edge of the sword, and half of his arm was severed. The excruciating pain caused the veins on his body to bulge. He forcefully broke the inner energy vines and broke free from Bai Ze's grip.

"White Pond!"

He roared and slammed his headbutt into the materialized air armor.

A large amount of hot air was released, the Qi Armor was consumed violently, and then a powerful surge of internal energy flowed in.

Although Bai Ze was also within the range of tear gas, he had internal breathing and could selectively absorb substances in the air, so he didn't need to worry about respiratory damage. His eyes also had an invisible aura that blocked the white smoke.

His pores and acupoints were rapidly absorbing vital energy, even forming a flowing wind. The powerful internal energy fluctuated within his body and also took shape outside his body.

Bang!
"Internal energy transforms into form."

The words became law, driving the invisible aura and the armor to combine and form a solid barrier. A fierce force erupted from above, forcibly shaking Xu Feihu away.

immediately--

"Cloud-Dispelling Palm".

An invisible aura stirred up tear gas, and billowing white smoke surged toward Xu Feihu.

At the same time, a pale blue arm phantom made a hand seal and struck out horizontally.

Boom!
The palm strike collided solidly with Xu Feihu's bent arm, the force exploding like a shotgun shell, hitting him, while the tear gas made frantic contact with the wound.

Bang!
The force created a fierce wind that erupted from the point of impact. Cracks appeared on the pale blue phantom arm, but at the same time, Xu Feihu's body was also suddenly covered in blood.

Bai Ze seized the opportunity, his sword flashed horizontally, an invisible scabbard materialized, and he unleashed his sword-drawing technique once more.

"Wandering clouds startle the dragon."

A sharp sword light slashed at Xu Feihu's right arm, and with a flash of blood, the phantom arm pressed forward, slamming Xu Feihu to the ground.

Bai Ze approached, gripping his longsword, and looked down at Xu Feihu on the ground, saying, "Tell me all the shady dealings you had with Qi Fangwei."

Language transformed into an invisible force, descending upon Xu Feihu's mind and sweeping through his consciousness.

With his injuries so severe, Xu Feihu was completely powerless to resist, and the power of his words became law, forcibly controlling his mind.

"Yes."

Xu Feihu, like a puppet, ignored his injuries and slowly revealed the secret buried in his heart.
