...
"Filthy blood, to die under the Holy Scepter is your honor."
The Church Envoy coldly shook the blood off the scepter.
As if what just happened was a trivial matter.
...
Bu Ang stood in the center of the conference room, his voice deep yet filled with undeniable authority:
"From today onwards, my son Brick will be the head of the Special Agent Bureau! Anyone with objections will end up like them!"
The crowd seemed yet to recover from their shock!
No one reacted!
Until...
"Isn’t this a bit too hasty?"
A slightly bold mid-level manager cautiously said.
Bu Ang’s gaze was piercing, directed straight at him:
"Hasty? My son’s ability is witnessed by all of you, now with the truth revealed, his baseless charges are cleared, and the position of chief belongs to him! Who dares disagree?"
The crowd looked at each other in dismay!
Seeing Bu Ang’s cold gaze and the oppressive pressure of the Church personnel, no one dared to voice opposition.
A once complicated and chaotic storm!
Under the strong measures of Bu Ang, it was swiftly pacified.
...
Brick smoothly ascended to the head of the Special Agent Bureau!
Instantly, the attitude of the people towards him changed from doubt to awe.
And in the spacious and brightly decorated office.
Bu Ang stood beside his recently released son, his eyes filled with comfort and pride.
He slightly tilted his head, gently asked Brick:
"Brick, should we take care of that Lin Lang too? After all, his relationship with Natalia is not ordinary..."
Bu Ang’s tone was calm, as if discussing a trivial matter.
As soon as he finished speaking!
Natalia, who had been quietly standing aside, tensed up and hastily stepped forward, urgently saying:
"Mr. Bu Ang, you must not do that! Lin Lang has been a great help in this incident. Had it not been for him, Xina’s family might have encountered mishaps a long time ago... Moreover, he is also working diligently to uncover the truth and clear Brick’s name."
Natalia spoke while looking earnestly at Bu Ang and Brick, hoping they would heed her words.
Brick felt a slight pain in his heart hearing Natalia defend Lin Lang.
His gaze was complex as he looked at Natalia, hesitated for a moment, and then asked:
"Natalia, now at this point, I want to know if you are still willing to be with me?"
Brick’s voice carried a hint of anticipation, yet was deeply uneasy. He stared hard at Natalia, as if trying to find an answer in her eyes.
Natalia lowered her head slightly, pondered for a while, then lifted her head and said firmly:
"Brick, I’m sorry. Now my heart, has completely leaned towards Lin Lang."
Natalia’s voice was gentle yet firm, each word was like a small hammer, heavily striking Brick’s heart.
A trace of disappointment flashed across Brick’s face, and his eyes instantly darkened.
But soon, he took a deep breath, tried to adjust his mood, looked ahead, and said:
"Alright, I respect your choice. Although it’s regrettable, I still have to thank Lin Lang for his help in this incident."
As Brick said this, the corners of his mouth slightly lifted, forming a somewhat bitter smile.
Though he felt a sense of loss, as the new chief, he also had his own poise.
...
Brick was filled with gratitude, intent on thanking Lin Lang in person.
But as he inquired around about Lin Lang’s whereabouts, he found out that Lin Lang had already left.
And had vanished without a trace, unreachable by phone or any form of communication.
Brick felt a slight sense of regret:
"This Lin Lang, how could he just leave like that, without even giving me a chance to thank him."
Bu Ang was also filled with curiosity about this elusive Lin Lang—
Especially when he learned!
That Lin Lang had remarkably killed Harrison!
And wiped out the Death God Squad!
Finally breaking through the Special Agent Bureau’s encirclement and leaving gracefully!
He lightly stroked his chin, his eyes sparkling with a probing light:
"This young man, acting so mysteriously, has indeed piqued my interest. I must see for myself who he truly is."
Bu Ang turned to the Church Envoy beside him, nodding slightly:
"Envoy, could you help me find someone?"
"Simple."
The Church Envoy understood, started chanting incantations, raising the scepter, continuously changing complex trajectories—
For a moment!
A mysterious aura filled the air, light gathered and intertwined in his palm.
With his chant!
A magic array emitting a gentle blue light slowly emerged, the blue light spreading like threads!
As if weaving an invisible net to search for Lin Lang’s trace.
Moments later!
The Church Envoy opened his eyes, a trace of surprise flashing through them, and said:
"Found him, he is currently in Phantom Star City."
However!
Before he could finish!
The previously stable magic array suddenly shook violently, the blue light flickering unpredictably!
Immediately!
With a "bang" it dissipated!
"What’s happening?"
Bu Ang’s face darkened, asking.
"This person’s power is extraordinary, he forcibly interrupted my secret technique."
The Church Envoy was completely shocked!
"I’ve never seen anyone able to so easily break our Tracking Spell, his power is unfathomable."
Yet instead of getting angry, his eyes showed even more interest:
"Interesting, it would seem this Lin Lang is far more formidable than we imagined. Phantom Star City... I must go meet him personally."
