At this instant, Fade Chen's expression was cruel and remorseless. Grim and pitiless, it was a dreadful sight to behold, and Captain Hu could not help cowering in fear.
Captain Hu shuddered in terror, realizing too late that he was facing a martial-artist of the Black Level. Shancus Wan had been slain by this young man of high skill and strength.
Captain Hu had always reveled in his status as a Late Yellow Level martial-artist, even if it was not as high a level as Fade Chen's. Also, as the leader of the Stealth Team, he had assumed Fade Chen would not act in the insurrection.
Their disparity in strength and skill was apparent, and everything that he had prided himself on had no bearings whatsoever. It was almost ludicrous.
Ultimately he regretted his decisions and understood Sergeant Wang's intention in trying to come to a compromise. After all, they were dealing with a Black-level martial-artist.
Parallel to this, at Bay City's Stealth team department, Officer Qin was tense and
agitated. He tapped his fingers on the table, asking, "Any news from Vice Officer Liu? Has he managed to stop Rocky Hu?"
His secretary looked up, confused at Officer Qin who was in jitters. He had posed this question less than three minutes ago. Why the need to pester? However, the secretary proceeded to check on the relevant updates, reporting, "Officer Qin, Captain Hu has arrived at Mr. Chen's mansion. Vice Officer Liu is still on the way, he said he will reach shortly."
"What! Already at the mansion!" Officer Qin stood up in alarm, looking nervous. "Rocky Hu better not cause any trouble, or sacking him ten times would not suffice."
"Try to contact Rocky Hu again and restrain him from further action. Tell Vice Office Liu to hasten, he has to stop Rocky Hu before the situation gets out of hand." Officer Qin said.
The secretary carried out his instructions promptly, answering, "Rocky Hu's cell phone is in silent mode and I can't reach him. Vice Officer Liu has replied that he can currently see the mansion at a distance and will arrive shortly."
"Get there in time, don't get into trouble!" Officer Qin muttered distractedly.
He was still reeling from the previous phone call. The information he received was so mind-blowing, he was stunned in disbelief. It took him a few seconds before he could recover from it.
It was beyond his comprehension that such a legendary character could exist in such a small town like Bay City. To receive a phone call from such upper- level authorities was unthinkable.
Another thought crossed his mind. If Rocky Hu offended Mr. Chen, not only would he lose his job and title, he might even lose his life!
At this, Officer Qin became even more agitated and distressed. He began to urge the secretary again. "Can you find out once more if Vice Officer Liu has arrived?"
Silent and confused, the secretary immediately contacted Vice Officer Liu via cell phone. "Vice Officer Liu, Officer Qin asked if you have reached your destination?"
On the other side, Vice Officer Liu was getting off the car outside the mansion. Clutching the phone, he ran towards the mansion, panting. "I'm here, I'm here, rest assured Officer Qin, I will stop Rocky Hu immediately."
