Special Expert of Beauty CEO

Almost in the blink of an eye.

To be precise, in no more than five seconds.

Those twenty-some people, resisting or not, all lay on the ground.

Not one could speak again, all lay dead on the spot!

The scent of blood lingered at the venue’s entrance.

Inside the venue, everyone was silent, eerily quiet like death!

Killed.

All killed!?

In such a short time, General Qin Tian killed all twenty-some people by himself?

The generals inside the venue were dumbstruck like fools, completely unable to believe what they’d just seen.

These were more than twenty mid-level generals, yet Qin Tian killed them so easily?

They glanced toward Qin Tian again.

Qin Tian casually sheathed the Red Sword, step by step, walking toward the podium.

”Clear the venue, continue the meeting.”

As if nothing had happened, Qin Tian sat back down, continuing, ”We were discussing the adjustment and arrangement of positions just now. Now, some positions, I need to continue adjusting…”

He mentioned a whole lot of position adjustments.

In the silent venue, everyone remained speechless.

Until Qin Tian finished speaking, asking: ”That’s the adjustment for now. Once the positions are settled, I’ll present them to His Majesty. Do any of you have opinions?”

Sweeping his gaze over the crowd, everyone lowered their heads.

Opinions?

Having an opinion means death, who would dare have an opinion?

Of course, among the remaining generals there were still some inserted by other forces from the Tianyuan Dynasty, but they were insignificant, not a threat.

”If no one has opinions, then, as I announced, the orders will be officially executed starting tomorrow. Meeting adjourned!”

Qin Tian immediately stood up, walking backstage, while the generals sat stunned for a long moment before getting up and leaving.

Some took deep breaths; this was probably the most nerve-wracking meeting they’d ever attended.

...

In this round of position adjustments, while suppressing the power of the Crown Prince and Ninth Prince, Qin Tian naturally placed those with military power in key positions among his own people.

Now in West State, aside from Qin Tian as the top leader, the second-ranking figure was Zhao Lanjin, followed by Xu Kuan, and then Lin Yu, Ye Kun, and Zuo Yuanhao.

These people formed Qin Tian’s current direct lineage.

And Zhou Yang was like Qin Tian’s strategist, helping Qin Tian strategize and win from afar.

Xiao Zhuang managed their independent intelligence system quietly, sparing no expense or resources to help Qin Tian recruit experts and intelligence talents.

Now Qin Tian, in West State, after recruiting and reorganizing troops, held fifty thousand soldiers, essentially becoming a formidable force.

...

Imperial City.

When the Ninth Prince learned that Qin Tian had killed his generals in West State, this currently most influential figure in the Imperial City was instantly enraged!

”That dog Qin Tian dares to bite!”

The Ninth Prince’s gaze was fierce, standing up, saying: ”He thinks, being far away in West State, I can’t deal with him? Humph, you killed my people, I’ll make you pay!”

Standing beside him was Su Xinlie, the Ninth Prince’s eyes flashed as he instructed Su Xinlie: ”General Su, immediately take men, surround Qin Tian’s mansion, and secretly kill everyone inside!”

Though Su Xinlie was known as a general who kills without blinking, he was momentarily stunned upon hearing the Ninth Prince’s order: ”Your Highness, such a fanfare, killing everyone in Qin Tian’s mansion?”

The Ninth Prince thought for a moment, saying: ”Take your trusted experts, launch the attack after disguise, yes, kill everyone!”

Su Xinlie was stunned, knowing the Ninth Prince was angry, and immediately nodded: ”As you command, I’ll prepare at once!”

Su Xinlie left Yitian Palace, immediately gathering troops to prepare for action, and with two hours till nightfall, assembled two thousand men, ready to move.

At the same time, to coordinate Su Xinlie’s operation, the Ninth Prince ordered Duan Xiaodao to withdraw all the patrol soldiers around Qin Tian’s mansion, leaving no patrol troops from the Dynasty within a dozen miles.

However, noticing the anomaly during this operation, combined with the news of Qin Tian’s killings in West State he previously heard, Duan Xiaodao immediately sensed something amiss.

Before nightfall, Duan Xiaodao, concealing his identity, headed directly to Qin Tian’s mansion, intending to warn them of the danger.

But upon secretly arriving, he was stunned to find Qin Tian’s mansion, apart from four rotating guards, completely empty inside!

”Boss is indeed boss, brilliant strategist.”

After a moment of admiration, Duan Xiaodao left Qin Tian’s mansion at ease.

Less than ten minutes after he left, Su Xinlie arrived with a large troop, preparing to surround Qin Tian’s mansion.

However, just as they were about to form the encirclement around Qin Tian’s mansion, a large group of black-clothed men approached from a nearby street!

”Who are you!?” Su Xinlie turned and shouted loudly from behind.

”Move aside! Otherwise, no mercy!”

The newcomers were entirely black-clothed, with one shouting angrily.

Both sides, enraged and murderous, suddenly started fighting outside Qin Tian’s mansion.

In an instant, the mansion was ablaze, True Qi raging wildly.

Su Xinlie killed more than ten of the opponents, eventually encountering a martial expert.

After exchanging dozens of moves, the opposing black-clothed man retreated, glaring at Su Xinlie: ”Flaming Heartburn!? Who are you really?”

”Humph, knowing my Flaming Heartburn yet not knowing who I am? You dare to protect Qin Tian, you’re on a dead-end path!”

Su Xinlie snorted coldly, True Qi surging, preparing to unleash a killing move.

”Hold on!”

The man hurriedly waved his hand, saying: ”Did we misunderstand each other!”

”Misunderstanding?”

”In the Imperial City, only General Su Xinlie could wield Flaming Heartburn with such skill, right? Haha, it was a misunderstanding, how could we be here to protect Qin Tian’s mansion? We are here to destroy it! I believe you are too, General Su, right?”

As the black-clothed man spoke, he signaled for both sides to stop fighting.

”To destroy the small Qin Tian mansion, the Ninth Prince had to send General Su himself, isn’t that overdoing it? Haha.” The black-clothed man spoke with evident disdain for the Ninth Prince.

Su Xinlie now, naturally understood what was happening.

Earlier he sensed something wrong, and indeed, they fought without clarity, both coming to destroy Qin Tian’s mansion.

He glanced around, after half an hour of battle, both sides each had around two hundred dead and one or two hundred wounded.

And when they stormed into Qin Tian’s mansion, seeing only four killed guards, they were directly stunned.

Su Xinlie and the black-clothed man both had embarrassed expressions.

Hell, ran all this way, lost hundreds of men, and in the end, only killed Qin Tian’s four people?
