First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!

Just as they were hesitating.

Fu Xinghe stepped forward.

Some things would diminish Lu Ding’s status if he said them himself.

But when Fu Xinghe spoke, it gave everyone a way out.

”Esteemed seniors, let’s first take the young masters and ladies back. While the Zeng family is unprepared, you can take whatever you want from them.”

”If we don’t hurry and the Zeng family realizes something’s wrong, then... it wouldn’t match what the Grand Guardian said about minimal impact.”

What was just spoken.

Now had to be fulfilled.

No empty promises, no conditions.

Said it would be given, so it was given.What schemes Lu Ding had in mind, these people didn’t know.

But just based on this matter.

What Lu Ding did matched exactly what he said.

Not a single discrepancy.

All substance, no filler!

Impressive!

Everyone understood the meaning behind Fu Xinghe’s words.

Each one cupped their hands: ”Then we won’t disturb you further.”

”Grand Guardian, you decide the timing whenever you want. If there’s anything, just call us, we’ll come immediately.”

”Grand Guardian, inviting you to dinner would be too formal. You’re busy now, starting tomorrow, I’ll prepare fine wine and dishes every day, arranging someone to invite you promptly. When you’re free, I’m available anytime. If you’re not free, I’ll discard the food and wine, and prepare fresh ones the next day, still available whenever you’re free.”

......

Their words sounded sweeter than singing.

Lu Ding found it quite pleasant to hear.

He cupped his hands and exchanged polite farewells with these family heads.

Until they had taken all their people away, leaving only Xi Yinan behind.

Lu Ding glanced at her.

He asked Qian Jin beside him: ”What, haven’t the Xi family members arrived yet?”

”Reporting to the Grand Guardian, the Xi family is quite far, at the border between White Ridge and Asura Street, spanning both areas, so they’ll arrive later.”

Lu Ding looked at Xi Yinan again.

This was Dong Minglong’s cousin...

Unexpected, truly unexpected, that Dong Minglong would deliver himself right to his doorstep.

On Xi Yinan’s phone.

Lu Ding had seen her chat history with Dong Minglong.

The content indicated.

That Dong Minglong would arrive in the new city today.

Lu Ding couldn’t wait to meet this legendary Dragon King.

And he still wanted to cause trouble for me!?

This time I’ll make sure you come but don’t return, meeting you directly at the station for a real-life confrontation!!!

Withdrawing his gaze, he looked at the half-dead Zeng Hongnian.

”You old dog, given face but don’t want it, still thinking of suing me?”

Zeng Hongnian glared furiously at Lu Ding: ”I will definitely sue you!!! I will sue you!!!!”

Lu Ding shook his head while making tsking sounds: ”Tsk tsk tsk tsk....... Then you’ll need to survive first.”

Arrogance was displayed to the fullest at this moment.

Somehow, in a daze, Zeng Hongnian actually saw his former self.

There was a time when he had similarly humiliated those who wanted to sue him.

Lu Ding stepped forward and directly voiced the thought in his mind.

”How many people wanted to sue your Zeng family before, but they all died, ah..... How do you think they died?”

”You dare kill me!? You dare kill me!? You have no evidence, you dare kill me!!!”

Wild laughter erupted as Lu Ding raised his hand and slapped his face repeatedly with loud smacks.

”Hahahaha not answering my question? Scared? Or already know the answer in your heart?”

”I’m telling you, it was all you who killed them, every damn one of them was killed by you!!!”

”Today, you old bastard’s retribution has arrived, the them of yesterday is the you of today!”

”You killing them was called harming the innocent, it was crime, me killing you, I’m eliminating harm for the people, punishing evil and removing wickedness hahahahaha......”

”Five Restrictions expert.....”

His voice was full of mockery.

”What use is being good at fighting? In this world, you need influence.”

As he spoke, he patted Hou Dehai beside him.

”You need background.”

Then pointed at the 749 shoulder insignia on his own shoulder.

Finally pressed his finger against Zeng Hongnian’s head: ”Otherwise, you need to behave properly, cultivate dutifully, that way I can’t control you, and I don’t want to control you, but if you challenge me, I’ll take your life!!!!”

Spiritual energy surged from his hand, black mist spewing forth.

[Torture-Crushing Great Rotation] activated!!!!

The sound of sizzling could be heard.

The pain made Zeng Hongnian tremble, wail, scream, and struggle.

But the louder he screamed, the louder Lu Ding’s laughter became.

Until finally.

Half of Zeng Hongnian’s head had been ground flat, hanging from Hou Dehai’s arm like a dead dog.

To deal with such inhuman creatures, one must use inhuman methods.

Evidence? Rules? Reason?

Those are for those who make minor mistakes, or for those who don’t make mistakes.

For this old dog guilty of heinous crimes, of course the more ruthless the better.

After all, things like using violence to counter violence were what Lu Ding handled most smoothly.

Fu Xinghe handed over a towel from the side.

Lu Ding took it and wiped the blood from his hands, then threw it at Xi Yinan’s face, who was pretending to be unconscious.

Startling her like a rabbit, trembling on the torture rack.

”Stop fucking pretending, I know you’re awake. I heard you’re quite favored in the Xi family, remember to go back and promote well how arrogant I am, how rampant I am!”

This person deserved to die!

But couldn’t be killed now. The Xi family spanning two districts would be the key hub for Lu Ding’s future cleansing of White Ridge and annexation of Asura Street!

Xi Yinan looked pale, her teeth chattering as she stared at Lu Ding.

If nothing unexpected happened, for a long time to come, Lu Ding would become the source of her nightmares upon waking at midnight.

A Five Restrictions expert had been brutally tortured to death right before her eyes.

Who wouldn’t be terrified by this?

Xi Yinan nodded with difficulty: ”I... I understand... I’m... sorry... I won’t dare anymore... I’ll behave properly in the future...”

Who asked her about that?

As if behaving properly in the future could cover up the facts of her previous wrongdoing.

In this damn new city, how many aristocratic families, powerful forces, family clans, and sects were clean?

Yes, but as the saying goes, few!

Lu Ding smiled disdainfully and walked out of the interrogation room.

He was gone, but his voice still echoed in the interrogation room.

”Hang this old dog up beside Luo Tianning’s corpse at the main entrance, as a warning to everyone!”

Outside the main door.

In the corridor.

Adhering to the principle of asking when you don’t understand, learning when you don’t know how, Fu Xinghe spoke:

”Brother Lu, I didn’t understand the reasoning behind what you just did.”

Lu Ding knew what he was asking about and explained it to him.

”In terms of one-on-one combat, White Ridge 749 can steadily crush any single one of these families, but when they band together, we can’t handle them, and our safety would be at risk.”

”You and I are both at First Restriction, we can’t compete with them.”

”So, we need to use our brains.”

”As long as we seize an opportunity, we take out one first, develop slowly, where there’s a will there’s a way, eventually there will be a time when we eliminate them all. Boiling a frog in warm water, that’s the principle.”

”As for the Zeng family’s industries and such, do you think if I let them take it, they would really dare to take it with clear consciences?”

Fu Xinghe suddenly understood: ”So, in the end, the Zeng family still belongs to us?”

Lu Ding corrected him: ”No, not ours, but divided three ways. It’s ill-gotten gains, it’s bandit suppression, it’s quelling rebellion, and we don’t even need to clean up the battlefield ourselves. The other families will clean up the Zeng family spotlessly.”

”Then deliver the packaged goods to us.”

”This is called being understanding.”

”Those who understand get to eat. Those who don’t understand have already been killed. Guess, will they understand?”

At this point, Fu Xinghe understood.

Everything was the art of language and behavioral suggestion.

Of course, this kind of thing only Lu Ding could do.

Others couldn’t.

Because Lu Ding had a premise that others didn’t have.

That was, his cultivation progressed very quickly.

Once he developed, then these families would become the next batch to be liquidated by Lu Ding.

The main strategy was information asymmetry and developmental inequality!

First use these families to get through the development period, then harvest them once developed, implementing the great unification of White Ridge!

After all, Lu Ding had never said he wouldn’t investigate the dirty and rotten things they had done before.

To deal with these people, one must use unreasonable methods.

Reasonable and legal but non-compliant.

At most you can go sue me.

Let’s see whether the Great Han 749 highest court believes Lu Ding, the special merit award recipient, special investigator’s account of enduring humiliation to achieve his purpose, working with wolves, and settling accounts after the fact.

Or believes your dark forces’ accusation of him abusing power, going back on his word, entrapment, and regulatory violations.
