"..."

Director Hu's calm voice rang out in the center of the exchange venue, reaching everyone's ears.

The crowd, already in shock, couldn't help but purse their lips upon hearing his last words.

Good heavens, good heavens!

Is it about redeeming people without killing them?

This statement by Director Hu is utterly outrageous.

However, at this moment everyone realized that the young lieutenant general who had killed people was no ordinary lieutenant general.

It is entirely possible, as Director Hu said, that he will soon become the youngest general in the Great Xia Dynasty.

"No wonder Director Hu is the head of the law enforcement bureau in the entire Tianbei Base City. His ability to judge cases is truly remarkable."

Cao Fengqi smiled as he watched this scene and heard Director Hu's words.

"Director Hu is right."

He slowly began to speak, saying, "This Tao Jia is definitely a criminal. We can call in a Soul Listener for a Soul Listening Trial to prove that my actions were to punish evil and eliminate scourge for the people."

As soon as Tao Jia was able to make threatening remarks, Cao Fengqi concluded that he was no good.

"..."

"..."

Upon hearing his words, everyone turned to look at him again.

Punish the wicked and eliminate evil, rid the people of harm?

Should I award you a five-star Good Citizen Medal?

This is outrageous and bullying!

Even the dead are subject to soul judgment, their past deeds investigated—it's terrifying!

However, everyone watched with flickering eyes, glancing at the official side out of the corner of their eye, and were also amazed.

The three generals from Tianbei Base City have all arrived and are standing to the side.

Although he remained silent, his attitude was very clear.

They were there to support that person.

Tao Xingshan watched this scene and listened to Director Hu's words, his expression constantly changing.

Hearing Cao Fengqi's words again, he was filled with rage.

What's the difference between this and killing someone and then launching a J-10 fighter jet?

"Yes, perhaps we can hear other things from the soul."

Director Hu nodded slightly, his eyes flickering.

"???"

Upon hearing these words, all of Tao Xingshan's anger vanished instantly, replaced by a deep chill.

Director Hu's words contained a chilling meaning.

Tao Xingshan knew perfectly well what kind of person his son was.

If the laws of Tianbei Base City were truly followed, then death would be a fitting punishment.

But that doesn't matter. As his own son, he knows many secrets of Longtou Mountain.

As the mountain's owner, how could he not understand the reputation of Longtou Mountain?

When officials really take things seriously, even he is considered unforgivable.

"Director Hu, no need."

Tao Xingshan took a deep breath and quickly said, "I didn't discipline this bastard in my family properly. He got used to bullying the weak and being arrogant. Today, this kid deserves to die. He can go to another world to be reformed."

"I've wanted to kill this brat for a long time, but I've never been able to bring myself to do it. Today, I'm extremely grateful to Lieutenant General Cao for his intervention!"

As he spoke, he cupped his hands in thanks to Cao Fengqi.

"..."

"..."

At this moment, everyone watching Tao Xingshan's actions could hardly contain themselves.

"Holy crap, this actually works?"

"Awesome, otherwise Tao Xingshan wouldn't have been able to become the leader of such a powerful force."

"His own son was killed, yet he's now thanking the murderer. He's truly flexible and adaptable."

"Tao Xingshan isn't stupid. The authorities are clearly trying to protect this Lieutenant General Cao. If Tao Xingshan keeps pressing this matter, the authorities will definitely conduct a thorough investigation of Longtoushan. Given their messy way of doing things, Tao Xingshan might end up joining his son in death."

Some people couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

"Sure, sure!"

Cao Fengqi raised an eyebrow when he saw that Tao Xingshan was so sensible.

"In that case, let's just drop this matter."

At the front, General Chen spoke up, "The day after tomorrow is Lieutenant General Cao Fengqi's awarding ceremony. All of you from various forces should come along as well, and we can also discuss the upcoming relocation issue."

"Okay, Mr. Chen."

Tao Xingshan was the first to speak.

His expression was obedient.

He has now accepted the fact that his son is dead. After all, he has more than one son, and besides, he can have more children.

There's no need to spend your life in mourning because of a son.

"It's Old Chen."

"receive!"

The high-ranking members of the various forces in Tianbei Base City around them immediately responded.

"This is the last exchange meeting for our Tianbei Base City. Let's have a good exchange, and when we go out into the world, we will all be Tianbei people."

General Chen nodded and said finally, "Let's continue."

"Yes."

"That's right, that's right, hehe, I wonder what good stuff you've brought out for this trade, Elder Chen."

The group of powerful figures smiled and echoed their agreement.

--------

"Tianbei Base City is no different from Liangmin County."

Seeing that the matter was over, Cao Fengqi raised his head slightly to look at Sister Youya and spoke leisurely.

"..."

Xiao Youya looked at him, unsure of what to say or ask.

Cao Fengqi today has brought him too much shock.

In the past, she was the deputy county head of Liangmin County, while this guy was just an ordinary young man.

What about now?

The young man in front of him, whom he considered inexperienced, had actually become the youngest lieutenant general in the Great Xia Dynasty.

"Elegant Sister, you two chat first, I'll go say hello to them."

Cao Fengqi said something to her again and walked forward.

"Hmph, kid, you think you're so lawless?"

Xu Zhenjiang saw him approaching and snorted coldly.

"Old Deng, isn't this what I learned from you?"

Cao Fengqi looked at him and said calmly, "Especially that line of yours, 'Who in the hall is accusing this official...' Tsk tsk, I must say, it was quite pretentious!"

"Oh? Feng Qi, you mustn't follow this old man's example, or you'll go astray!"

General Chen said with a smile from the side.

"Yes, indeed, I still have to learn from Elder Chen and Elder Song."

"Haha, that's right, that's right!"

When General Song and his men heard this, they couldn't help but laugh.

Xu Zhenjiang's face darkened as he stomped on them. He was no match for them in a 1v3 situation, so he turned his head away and stopped talking.

Director Hu and his colleagues were no longer surprised by Cao Fengqi's relaxed and joking conversation with the three generals.

However, everyone's attention remained focused on them.

Those present were all extraordinary individuals, so they could hear the conversations clearly.

This also made them fully realize the status of "that boy".

In Tianbei Base City, a prodigy, lawless youth emerged.

This is truly a case of murder going unpunished.

If you offend him, you'll really be stuck in the ground like a ginseng root.
