Swordholder

The others were stunned for a moment, then they all realized what was happening.

Countless gazes fell upon Chen Yuan in the corner.

Most of the people in the room were shrewd and clever.

Among the team leaders, Chen Yuan had only been there for a few days and hadn't yet consumed the Demon Transformation Pill or the Beast Transformation Pill. Therefore, Xu Zhilong's purpose was quite clear!

"Bang!"

Ma Ling'en immediately flew into a rage, slamming his fist on the table and shouting at Xu Zhilong, "Are you crazy? You don't actually want this kid to be the director, do you?"

As he spoke, Ma Ling'en pointed to the group of people led by the team leader.

The crowd parted, revealing a passageway.

At the end of the passage stood Chen Yuan, arms crossed, standing leisurely.

"That's right."

Xu Zhilong admitted it directly.

Ma Ling'en smiled.

Damn it, he wants to put Chen Yuan on trial at this meeting.

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: ①⓪①ⓚⓚⓢ.ⓒⓞⓜ]

Someone actually beat him to it?

Should we promote that kid?

If that kid becomes the director, what right will he have to pronounce judgment on the other party?

"He committed insubordination and killed Director Yang. Do you want a criminal to be the director?"

Ma Ling'en gritted his teeth and roared, "How can you do this to Director Yang Guoguo, to Chief Enforcement Officer Yang?"

"Heh, Yang Guoguo led a group of people to storm into the Human Desire Building and kill people in the early hours of the morning. Captain Chen was just acting in self-defense."

Xu Zhilong said calmly.

"justifiable defense?"

Ma Ling'en scoffed, "Hmph, even if he acted in self-defense, he still committed the crime of insubordination!"

Xu Zhilong retorted sharply, "Now that he's become a director, it doesn't count as insubordination."

"Hahaha, ridiculous! Become a director? Where would there be a director's position available for him?"

Ma Ling'en spoke sarcastically.

The two were at loggerheads.

The atmosphere in the arena became tense.

Countless people held their breath, not daring to breathe loudly.

Many people agree with Ma Ling'en's words.

Even after Yang Guoguo died, a member of the Yang family named Yang Feng immediately filled the position of director.

What if Chen Yuan were appointed as the director?

That would leave the director-general without any real power.

A director is different from a team leader; a team leader needs ten people under him... Chen Yuan has three people under him, which is barely enough.

But a director has at least ten team leaders under him!

You need to have a hundred people under your command to become a department head!

Zhu Xiong remained silent, watching the two men confront each other with an unreadable expression.

"Captain Chen, would you like to say a few words?"

Xu Zhilong glanced at Chen Yuan, gave him a look, and spoke in a deep voice.

His meaning was very clear: he wanted Chen Yuan to come out and sign a military pledge!

If the remaining henchmen of the Sword-wielding faction are not brought to justice, then we shall atone with our deaths!

Then Xu Zhilong raised the question again: whoever dared to make a pledge like Chen Yuan did, he would abandon the proposal.

As for a director without any real power, that doesn't matter.

All I need is a title.

After all, in Xu Zhilong's plan, Chen Yuan was destined to die in the end.

Chen Yuan strolled out leisurely, ignoring the sharp gazes of the crowd, and came to Ma Ling'en's side.

Ma Ling'en frowned, stared at Xu Zhilong, and said angrily, "What right does he have to speak in this meeting?"

"hehe!"

Xu Zhilong smiled, "All five or six of us directors unanimously agreed that he could take on the role of director and, at the same time, shoulder the responsibility of rooting out the remnants of the Sword-wielding clique."

"You can't deny him a chance to speak, can you? Doing so will affect the unity of the organization."

As soon as he finished speaking, five or six directors beside Xu Zhilong nodded in unison, all looking at Ma Ling'en with unfriendly expressions.

Ma Ling'en's gaze darkened as he looked at Yang Feng with suspicion.

To his surprise, Yang Feng didn't say anything.

Was he suppressed by Zhu Xiong?

"I think what Director Ma said earlier was incorrect."

At this moment, Chen Yuan spoke, and everyone immediately fell silent, turning to look at him.

Xu Zhilong's face immediately showed displeasure. "I'm asking you to sign a pledge!"

What nonsense are you spouting?

He kept giving Chen Yuan meaningful glances.

Chen Yuan ignored Xu Zhilong and stared directly at Ma Ling'en.

"Boy, which of my words do you find wrong?"

Ma Ling'en said menacingly, his expression extremely dissatisfied.

If I had known that this little bastard would cause so much trouble after he arrived, I should have killed him from the start.

Thinking of this, he took out a bronze candlestick and placed it on the table.

Then he took the candle from the candlestick and started eating it like sugarcane, taking big bites and munching on it.

Beneath the bronze candlestick, a shadow seemed to spread down from the tabletop, extending towards Chen Yuan's shadow.

Upon seeing this, everyone gasped in shock.

Those Wuxiang Guards who were familiar with Ma Ling'en's actions all understood!

Director Ma was furious!

Finished!

That kid's dead meat!

Xu Zhilong was annoyed that Chen Yuan had caused trouble. When he saw the bronze candlestick, he wanted to speak up to remind him, but after thinking about it, he kept his mouth shut.

At the same time, Chen Yuan placed his hands on the edge of Ma Ling'en's chair, leaned forward slightly, and leaned closer, his eyes lowered, and he said in a low voice:

"You're asking where there's a director's seat available for me? Haha, if your seat becomes available, then there's one, isn't there?"

Ma Ling'en's face instantly turned cold, and his eyes flashed with murderous intent. "Kid, you son of a bitch..."

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Yuan grabbed the bronze candlestick he had placed on the table and smashed it into his mouth!

boom!

His teeth flew out of his mouth, and blood splattered everywhere!

Even the candle he was chewing in his mouth was violently pushed into his throat, rendering him speechless!

"Ah...hoho...you...!!"

Enraged, Ma Ling'en spat out blood and candle shards, his words coming out incoherently.

He was about to resist when a large hand suddenly gripped the back of his neck!

A terrifying force pushed his head so hard that it slammed against the edge of the long stone table!

boom!

A tremendous sound reverberated outwards, and before anyone could react, Chen Yuan grabbed Ma Ling'en by the back of the neck and repeatedly slammed his head against the edge of the stone table!

Bang, bang, bang!

One, two, three...

Every impact was incredibly fierce!

"Ughhhhh!"

Ma Ling'en screamed in agony, his hair disheveled, as he tried his best to resist.

In terms of physical strength, he was no match for Chen Yuan.

At this moment, cold and deep black scales appeared on Chen Yuan's arm, greatly increasing his strength!

Ma Ling'en was completely unable to react or resist!

After seven or eight impacts, his forehead was split open and covered in blood!

"You...stop!"

"Release Chief Ma!"

Someone realized what was happening, immediately shouted, and rushed over!

Chen Yuan's expression was cold. He threw aside the bronze candlestick with his left hand, and a gleaming kitchen knife appeared in his hand!

Swish!

With his right hand, he forcefully pressed Ma Ling'en's head onto the table, and with a swift stroke, severed Ma's head!

puff!

Fresh blood gushed out from the neck of the headless corpse!

In an instant, the entire stone table was covered in dark blood!

Chen Yuan grabbed Ma Ling'en's bloodied head and threw it at the oncoming man.

"Here's your Chief Ma back."

The man instinctively hugged it, then looked up in astonishment and held his head up to his face.

Ma Ling'en stared at him with wide eyes!

His eyes were filled with resentment!

"what!"

The man was startled and threw his head forward again!

Gudong!

Its round head rolled on the table and rolled right up to Zhu Xiong and Xu Zhilong.

Ma Ling'en's eyes, wide with fear and resentment, stared at Xu Zhilong!

"!!!"

Xu Zhilong's heart skipped a beat!

Directors Zhu Xiong and Yang Feng were all dumbfounded!

The rest of the people stood frozen in place!

Everyone stared in disbelief at the boy's figure, speechless.

No one expected that Chen Yuan would suddenly attack and cleanly and efficiently kill Ma Ling'en!

This beast looks even fiercer than any of the beasts in the arena!

What the hell!

You're telling me this is something a human boy could do?

Even Zhou Ye's mouth was wide open!

He had assumed that Chen Yuan would swear an oath and make a pledge in order to become the director!

Using the pretext of capturing the remnants of the Sword-wielding clique, and with the strong recommendation of Xu Zhilong and others, they escaped today's calamity!

But to everyone's surprise, the other party killed Ma Lingtian.

The reason given was that Ma Lingtian should relinquish his position as director!

At the same time, to everyone's shock and stunned gaze, Chen Yuan grabbed Ma Lingtian's body and threw it onto the table with a bang.

He sat down in Ma Lingtian's seat and crossed his legs.

"Director Xu, I have executed Ma Lingtian as you requested. Now, I am the director of the Ninth Division."

"Don't worry, I promise to stand with you. If you want to become the Chief Director, I will definitely support you!"

Chen Yuan looked at Xu Zhilong and said earnestly, then looked at the five or six dumbfounded directors, "Thank you for your support as well."

Xu Zhilong felt as if he had been slapped in the face.

Holy crap?

I told you to kill him?

Don't you dare spout such nonsense!

The other directors immediately became uneasy.

It feels like I've boarded a pirate ship.
