The Law of Heaven

Chapter 66 Fu Wanghu's Hint
After being harassed by the Yan family, Aihara was taken to the Technology Research and Development Bureau's office to help organize documents.

Despite her busy schedule, Jiang Wanwu still managed to find time to go downstairs to the public restroom and bring him back. It's clear that this woman really cares about him and isn't just playing around.

But for him, the Yan family's affair was an interlude, and also a warning about his current situation.

Even though the Deep Blue Alliance promised to deal seriously with the Yan family's affairs, he was unwilling to entrust his fate entirely to so-called order and justice. The world of immortal beings follows the law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak; only the strong can protect themselves, while the weak can only be bullied.

The Yan family is a large family.

Aihara was just a nobody with no power or influence.

If the conflict truly reaches an irreconcilable point, even a fool would know what the Deep Blue Alliance will ultimately choose.

This world has always been like this: principles and order are always vulnerable in the face of power.

If the Yan family wanted, things like today could happen many more times, and they could do it even more discreetly.

Endless warnings and harassment.

Until he completely destroyed Aihara's life.

Fortunately, Aihara is strong enough to launch a series of effective countermeasures, which will make the Yan family hesitant to act rashly.

Currently, the Deep Blue Alliance is conducting an internal investigation from top to bottom, mainly because the emergence of the remnants of the Shi family has made them realize that there may be some problems within the five major families.

The board of directors of Deep Blue Union was not stupid. Through the intelligence and evidence brought back by the hunters from the front line one after another, they keenly realized that the Shi family's research in the other side was mostly supported by someone behind the scenes.

Whether it's the Shi family's weapons and equipment or their scientific research instruments and equipment, everything is based on cutting-edge technology.

In this city, almost all high-end industries are under the control of the company. If someone is really supporting the remnants of the Shi family behind the scenes, they will definitely be able to find out the clues.

At this critical juncture, anyone found to have a problem will inevitably be dealt with seriously.

So far, Deep Blue Alliance has not found any evidence that any of the five major families are supporting the remnants of the Shi family behind the scenes. On the contrary, they have uncovered a number of cases of embezzlement, bribery, or violations of human ethics, which can be regarded as an internal rectification.

Otherwise, the Yan family's retaliation against Xiangyuan would have been even more intense, and the conflict would have continued to escalate.

This is one of the reasons why Aihara never enters the other side in his true form; he wants to avoid being schemed against by the Yan family as much as possible.

It has to be said that the Hunter Market set designed by DeepBlue is really interesting.

It's like a huge open-world game with a vast map to explore, an adventurer's hall, daily quests, randomly triggered events, dynamic weather changes, time-limited dungeons, adventure guides, and rewards.

In particular, there are adventurer outposts at the entrance of limited-time dungeons, which are responsible for medical care, logistics, and post-incident work.

Aihara appears to be a cheater, not actually participating in the normal player's process.

"Ohara, do you really want to go to the other side?"

After tidying up the documents at her desk, Jiang Wanwu took out her makeup mirror to touch up her makeup and suddenly said.

"Why do you ask so suddenly?"

Aihara helped her pick up the documents and put them in the box, then looked up and glanced at her, meeting her smiling eyes.

"Your eyes and attitude show you're very interested in the hunters. But I suggest you really don't go to the front lines... Look at them."

Jiang Wanwu came to the window, pointed downstairs, and said softly, "People die every day in this kind of life. Everything the hunters get is earned with their lives. Many people say that true strongmen are forged in life-or-death crises, but you only have one life. On this path, once you make a mistake, you're gone."

The muddy off-road vehicle drove into the parking lot, and the injured hunters got off carrying heavy packs. Some of them could barely move on their own, but others collapsed onto stretchers and were taken to the emergency room.

"I know."

Aihara knew the woman was trying to persuade him to become a live-in son-in-law, but he was momentarily stunned when he suddenly saw two familiar figures emerge from an SUV.

Because it was Jian Mo and Xiao Li, both of them were a bit reserved and looked rather furtive.

Jian Mo was still whispering something in Xiao Li's ear, probably verifying her testimony to avoid giving herself away.

It seems that after what happened last night, Jianmo and Xiaoli, in order to avoid arousing suspicion, must have found a way to sneak back to the other side. They took a detour through the temporary base of the resort at the foot of the mountain and returned to the company.

But Jiang Youqing did not return.

Aihara took out his phone and glanced at the Hunter x Hunter internal network. The higher-ups have begun investigating the helicopter that took off from the other side last night, but there are no results yet.

After all, the helicopter had already crashed.

"By the way, do you know Jiang Youqing?"

Jiang Wanwu suddenly said.

For some reason, Aihara suddenly had a feeling that he was about to encounter a chaotic scene, and his heart trembled inexplicably: "Uh, Jiang Youqing? My senior from high school, what's wrong?"

Jiang Wanwu didn't say anything, only calmly stating, "Jiang Youqing is the most talented hunter of this generation, and she was chosen by the chairman. But as of now, Jiang Youqing hasn't come out since entering the other side."

No one knows if she's still alive, or what her current condition is. That's how it is on the front lines; anyone can die.

So, just stay by my side and behave yourself.

Aihara breathed a sigh of relief, then suddenly asked curiously, "By the way, sister, how much do you know about Jiuge?"

Jiang Wanwu tilted her head and thought for a moment, the pendant on her earlobe sparkling: "Jiuge is a grand alliance composed of nine ancient longevity families, divided into three upper families and six lower families. It is the first super power after the end of the internal strife in this land. However, after more than a hundred years of accumulation, these nine families have basically retreated behind the scenes and live in seclusion. They will not show themselves unless there is a large-scale primitive disaster."

Today, the core of Jiuge is the Central True Pivot Academy, a paradise for the immortal race and the most prosperous center of mythological civilization. Jiuge governs the world order with its power, and the Deep Blue Alliance is also a part of this order, but the two are not in a superior-subordinate relationship, but rather in a cooperative one.

However, in recent years, Jiuge has also declined somewhat, probably due to a turmoil more than a decade ago. Some new forces have risen, attempting to create a new order.

The Deep Blue Alliance sometimes sends people to the Central True Pivot Academy for study and exchange. If you'd like to go, I can try to arrange a spot for you. Would you like to go?

Aihara hesitated for a moment: "Uh, there's no rush. I'm just curious to know which families make up the Nine Songs Alliance."

"I don't remember that. Jiuge's family is quite mysterious. I only know the surnames of the two families."

Jiang Wanwu counted on her delicate fingers, "One family is surnamed Ji, one family is surnamed Su, and I don't know the others."

"so."

Aihara nodded slightly: "I've learned something new."

Jiang Wanwu pinched his cheek and said with a smile, "Alright, come with me to the venue, we're going to be busy today."

"Okay sister."

DeepBlue United's public meeting was held at Tianhe Science and Technology Museum, a large building across the street from the company headquarters.

Security personnel were patrolling the streets, roadblocks had been set up at all four intersections, snipers were positioned between the high-rise buildings, and the police station had also deployed special police units to cooperate in controlling the surrounding areas.

Chairman Ruan sat on the fourth-floor balcony drinking tea, the boiling tea in the teapot steaming and bubbling.

"The people of Jiuge are becoming increasingly arrogant."

Yan Chengwu stood behind her like a warrior and said in a deep voice, "Back then, the Ruan family was one of the six lower families. They broke away from Jiuge and came to this island city. You are, after all, their senior. Now, the representative of Jiuge has come to our territory, yet they don't even come to see you."

Zhou Yin sighed and said softly, "After all, in Jiu Ge's eyes, only those who reach the Crown Realm before the age of twenty-five are truly strong. And among the five major families, only Wang Hu possesses such talent. The only one left is You Qing, right?"

Chairman Ruan smiled kindly: "In their eyes, I'm nothing more than an old hag who's been eliminated by the times. If I didn't still have some strength left, they probably would have taken over the primitive disaster that's happening here long ago."

This woman surnamed Mu, deliberately trying to befriend Wang Hu, has no good intentions whatsoever. She simply wants to arouse my suspicion and create discord between us, aunt and nephew.”

The two bureau chiefs looked at each other in bewilderment.

As expected, the chairman saw things very clearly.

The Deep Blue Alliance would absolutely not allow Fu Wanghu, this prisoner, to associate with a super-powerful force like Jiu Ge. Although Fu Wanghu's strength hasn't reached the point of being able to control everything, his talent is simply too great. Once the corruption is cleansed, his future is limitless.

“Jiuge wants to use me to get rid of Wanghu. To Jiuge, Wanghu is a threat. And without Wanghu, we will no longer be a threat. Unless we wait another ten years until Youqing grows up.”

Chairman Ruan sighed and suddenly said, "Old Zhou, still no news about Youqing?"

Zhou Yin shook his head regretfully: "No, this little girl won't get into trouble easily, but no one can figure out what she's thinking."

"Humph."

Yan Chengwu snorted coldly: "I've said it before, we must install tracking devices on them. These kinds of people must be under our close surveillance and cannot act recklessly!"

Chairman Ruan smiled helplessly.

She looked toward a corner of the venue.

Fu Wanghu, who is usually slovenly, actually showed up in a suit, looking like a vampire who has been sleeping in a coffin for a hundred years, holding a glass of red wine in his hand with a mysterious smile.

A gloomy woman in a black trench coat smiled and greeted him. A black raven perched on her shoulder, its scarlet eyes seemingly reflecting thick blood.

The exchange between the two was like a conversation between a demon and a vampire, which sent chills down the spines of the staff watching.

About five minutes later, the woman in shadow, representing Jiuge, left, leaving only a business card.

Mu Stele.

A very unlucky name.

Mu Bei's subordinates all wore expressions as if their mothers had died, following behind like zombies.

"Tell Lao Jiang, when everything is ready, let's begin."

Chairman Ruan said softly.

"clear."

The lights in the venue suddenly dimmed, the lights on the main platform came on, and the holographic projection unfolded.

The company's senior management and executives entered one after another, including some retired elders from the five major families, as well as invited outside elites, and took their seats.

With his staff badge hanging around his neck, Aihara leisurely drank cola in the shadows backstage, concentrating his senses to observe his surroundings.

"I'm going on stage with my father later."

Jiang Wanwu was in charge of directing the backstage area. After explaining the precautions to the staff, she said with a smile, "Wait here for me for a while, and don't wander off."

Aihara hadn't met the head of the Jiang family yet. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Sister Wanwu, I think you should be careful. Things haven't been peaceful lately. Sometimes the threat doesn't come from outside, but from within."

Jiang Wanwu was taken aback: "You mean?"

Aihara said seriously, "This matter is far too important. I think someone might try to harm your father."

Jiang Wanwu was taken aback and gave him a deep look.

After a moment's consideration, she nodded slightly and said, "I understand, I will be more careful."

After saying that, she turned and left with the documents in her arms.

Aihara looked at her retreating figure, feeling inexplicably uneasy.

The main reason is that Aihara had recently run into a guy surnamed Fu, who was unusually dressed in a suit, looking like he had been invited to a ceremony.

Theoretically speaking, Fu Wanghu wouldn't be interested in such a meeting; he's not that kind of person.

So what is he here for?

Aihara looked at the first row of the audience again.

Fu Wanghu sat in the corner with a glass of red wine in his hand, raised a finger to his lips, and his lips moved slightly.

"Ready to watch the show?"

Aihara understood his lip movements.

Fu Wanghu must know something.

With his extraordinary abilities, predicting situations in advance would be incredibly easy for him.

During their private meeting this morning, Fu Wanghu was actually subtly hinting at something to him.

However, for some reason, Fu Wanghu did not seem to inform the five major families of his speculation.

and many more.

Aihara has figured it out.

If you consider the issue from Fu Wanghu's perspective, then this matter is very simple and easy to understand.

Fu Wanghu was a prisoner.

The weaker the five major families are, the more the higher-ups will need him, and the better his situation will be!
Fu Wanghu would prefer to see five families riddled with problems, rather than an invincible alliance.

Aihara looked around, but even with his senses, he still couldn't detect anything unusual.

Instead, they found Jianmo and Xiaoli in the corner.

After pondering for a moment, Aihara was a little worried about their safety, so he walked over through the corridor.

At that very moment, Mu Bei walked over with the crow on his shoulder and glanced at him, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally.

Aihara also glanced at her.

The instant their eyes met.

Mu Bei let out a soft exclamation.

"What's wrong with you?"

The subordinate asked respectfully.

"It's nothing, that kid looks a bit familiar."

Mu Bei turned around and shook her head. Just now she had seen the ID card on the child's neck, which had his name on it.

Aihara.

The surname Xiang is rare. The first family that came to her mind was that family, but their branches and collateral branches are all over the world, so it's not unusual to encounter one occasionally.

More importantly, the child's eyes weren't white, so there was nothing particularly noteworthy about them.

"Let's go see Mr. Jiang Hai."

Mu Bei gently stroked the crow on his shoulder.
