Chapter 85 Destroying the Corpse and Covering Up the Evidence
86.
……
Because of the arrival of people from the Holy City, Pang Lai had to leave Hangzhou ahead of time. Zhu Meng then began an investigation using the blood serum given to him by Lü Cheng. However, Luo Mian, who was already on guard, quickly cut off the clues by pointing to the deputy presiding judge, Wang Yi.
West Fortress Strategic Conference Hall.
The atmosphere in the conference room was particularly tense in the face of the impending arrival of the monarch-level Silver Dome Lord.
Although Leng Qing had already helped Lingling find the source of the plague and a solution, Xiling, where Eagle Red Grass grows, is the lair of the White Demon Eagles. If a human mage were to invade there, they would inevitably be surrounded and attacked by the White Demon Eagles. Even a super-level mage would not return alive.
With the White Demon Eagle invasion imminent, they simply don't have enough manpower to harvest Eagle Red Grass.
"By the way, the White Demon Eagle and the Sky Eagle belong to the same species. What if we send a Sky Eagle to infiltrate the Western Ridge to collect Eagle Red Grass..."
Before Military Commander Yun Feng could finish his suggestion, Military Intelligence Officer Ming Kuo interrupted him, "Commander, a few days ago when the White Demon Eagle first invaded, the Sky Eagles almost went out of control. You ordered all the Sky Eagles in the fortress to be executed. Moreover, that monarch-level demon eagle on the other side..."
Demons of the same race suffer from an incredibly terrifying bloodline suppression!
A commander-level demonic eagle is enough to make a sky eagle lose control, while the pressure of a monarch-level demonic eagle can easily make a sky eagle rebel!
Therefore, this move is simply impossible!
Meeting the strange looks from the crowd, Military Commander Yunfeng's face darkened.
Isn't he trying to find a solution?
The meeting room fell silent once again.
Zhu Meng suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "That's right, Lü Cheng is a high-level space mage, he..."
"Hey, you didn't think of me for this good thing? Why don't you contact me first?"
The conference room door suddenly opened, and Lü Cheng walked in.
Zhu Meng was somewhat embarrassed, but the situation was urgent, so he had no choice but to lower his tone. "I was impulsive about the totem issue, and I apologize, but the White Demon Eagle is right in front of us..."
"Stop, stop, stop." Seeing Zhu Meng, a big bearded man, bowing and scraping to him, Lü Cheng felt a chill and immediately placed the spatial bracelet containing the Eagle Red Grass on the table.
Zhu Meng was taken aback, "This is..."
“Eagle Red Grass.” Lü Cheng sat down.
“You people are either stubborn fools who don’t think about anything and just do things, or you’re full of scheming and do nothing.”
"As a dignified honorary councilor of the Magic Court, I go on a trip and get wanted. Being wanted is bad enough, but I also have to risk my life to do hard labor."
"My life is so bitter..."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of those present varied.
Zhu Meng felt ashamed. He had always thought that Lü Cheng had been obstructing him because of his relationship with the judge Tang Yue. He never expected that he had misunderstood the situation and had acted willfully.
“Now that the plague problem has been solved, shouldn’t we also deal with the culprit behind it?” Lü Cheng asked Luo Mian.
Luo Mian remained unmoved. "With a formidable enemy at hand, are you planning to start an internal conflict now?"
Even an honorary member of the Magic Court has a higher status and authority than him!
This guy, like Zhu Meng, has the authority to detain him!
However, if we make a move now, he will not sit idly by and wait to die. To capture him, we would need at least two super-level mages.
With a formidable enemy at hand, why increase losses at this juncture?
This kid is just a high-level mage; Zhu Meng and the others wouldn't be so reckless as to disregard the bigger picture.
"Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't consider the bigger picture, but..." Lu Cheng's figure disappeared from the spot, and the next moment, he appeared behind Luo Mian and grabbed his shoulder.
"You suggested earlier that we capture the girls I brought and use them to threaten me into showing myself?"
"I..." Luo Mian was startled. He was about to use shadow magic to escape when he found that he could not move at all.
A powerful spiritual force invaded his mental world!
"Trying to run?" With a thought from Lü Cheng, Luo Mian's limbs were instantly crushed by an immense pressure.
The air was thick with the smell of blood, and Luo Mian, who had lost all four limbs, lay dying on the ground.
Upon seeing this, the people present had different expressions, but no one stepped in to stop it.
What Luo Mian did and the damage it caused were enough to warrant a death sentence.
Now, Lü Cheng has simply had his death sentence carried out ahead of schedule.
That's perfect, saves them the trouble of finding evidence.
As for Luo Mian being instantly defeated by Lü Cheng, although everyone was surprised, it wasn't that unexpected.
After all, Lu Cheng created such a large floating island, so his mental strength must be incredibly powerful.
With the powerful boost to his mental strength, Lü Cheng is also a high-level mage in both the mind and space magic systems.
With this combination, even a high-level mage would be defeated if caught off guard!
"I'm a congressman, you can't kill me..."
Bang!
Before he finished speaking, Lü Cheng made a grasping motion in the air, and Luo Mian exploded into a bloody mist.
"A councilor? You make it sound like no one is..." Lu Cheng waved his hand, and the blood mist in the air burst into flames and vanished instantly.
Not even ashes remained!
"Oh! Where's Luo Mian?"
Having just finished disposing of the body, Lü Cheng suddenly looked at everyone in the conference room in surprise.
"Weren't they just here a moment ago? How did they disappear in the blink of an eye?"
"..."
Everyone looked puzzled.
Such exaggerated acting.
"Yes, where is Councilor Luo Mian?" Tang Zhong looked at Zhu Meng with a puzzled expression.
"Did you see that?"
Zhu Meng's eye twitched slightly. "I didn't see it."
"With such a formidable enemy at hand, could he have run away?" Judge Li Tian asked, his face showing dissatisfaction.
Military Commander Yunfeng coughed twice, "Perhaps there's an emergency at home?"
"..."
Seeing the attitude of the leaders, everyone else in the conference room also raised their eyes.
They saw nothing.
……
"You're really efficient."
On the way back to West Lake, Leng Qing, who was following Lü Cheng, had a very strange expression.
They actually executed Luo Mian in front of everyone.
Although that old bastard deserved to die, he was a member of parliament. If the interrogation process were followed, the old man would at most spend the rest of his life in prison and would not be sentenced to death. In fact, if the evidence was insufficient, the old man might not even be able to go to prison.
If Zhu Meng and the others hadn't pretended to be stupid and cooperated when Lü Cheng did this, he would have been in trouble.
“I’ve already destroyed the evidence, they won’t contradict me for someone who didn’t exist,” Lü Cheng said.
"Besides, that island in the sky is still floating. Even if they want to mess with me, they'll have to consider whether that thing will suddenly fall down."
Leng Qing's eyes twitched slightly.
Threat!
A naked threat!
As long as that island remains floating, no one will dare to lay a hand on Lü Cheng!
After all, if that thing falls, the city of Hangzhou will be gone!
"What, is the incorruptible Senior Sister Leng trying to find something on me?" Lü Cheng said.
"I wouldn't dare," Leng Qing said, pursing her lips.
"You're a formidable person who can even instantly kill a councilor who is a super-level mage. If I were to catch you red-handed, I might not even know when I'll be reduced to ashes."
To completely obliterate a super-level mage without any resistance, even though Lü Cheng relied on a sneak attack, there was still no trace of his body!
Mind-based attacks gain the upper hand, spatial attacks deliver instant kills, and fire-based attacks destroy evidence!
One-stop service!
She knew very well that many people in the conference room were actually intimidated by Lü Cheng's move, which was why they didn't dare to say anything.
