Chapter 2145 - Public Enemy

The youths voice boomed throughout the nine floors.

This kid doesn't seem too bad. Whose kid is he? He has quite the air of righteousness!

Many quickly noticed him.

Hes Lin Jianchen, the second son of the Third Branch Master, Lin Xiaoyun. He should be in his forties.

Hes just pa.s.sed his thirties and is very domineering. Very much the style of the Lin Clan.

His name implied that he may have some link with Lin Jianxing.

Is that Lin Feng still not coming out?

He knows he screwed up, so hes hiding inside. Weve all seen too many criminals like him.

People all craned their necks.

Lin Jianchen, go in and catch him before he escapes! many shouted.

Lin Jianchen and his teammates looked at each other. Take action!

At this moment, a white-haired youth leisurely walked out from the dark cultivation room.

Wow, such a turn-out! Tianming was startled to find thousands gathered around. He hadnt come out as he had been using the carefree wonder, the Greenspark Tower, and his strong Primordial Chaos Beast Physique to wipe the drug from his system. It was quite the drug; it had even seeped into his albi. It could drive him mad and inflame his pa.s.sion, causing his judgment to be affected. Confusion had been the druggers true purpose. Tianming had spent quite a bit of effort to calm himself down, otherwise, he would have been easily led around by the nose.

Suddenly, a voice boomed like lightning, Lin Feng!

Tianming turned and saw a handsome man with a righteous aura dressed in sword robes. [1]

How daring of you! You relied on your status as a direct descendant to threaten and force yourself upon a lady of your clan. You ignored the rules of the family and harmed the image of the clan. Such vile deeds have made you the shame of the clan. We have witnesses and evidence, so our Myriadsword Patrol will apprehend you and bring you to the Hall of Discipline today!

Many people started clapping at Lin Jianchens words.

He deserves it.

Its karma coming for him.

This Lin Feng was born with a decent appearance, but what a filthy man he is on the inside.

I mean, its obvious when you remember who his father was.

Lin Jianchen led his teammates toward Tianming to apprehend him.

Tianming stepped back, his expression confused. Wait, what? Forced myself upon who? Witness and evidence? Show me first.

Lin Jianchen stopped and looked toward Lin Xingqing and her companions.

Shameless! When we came up, we saw you a.s.saulting Big Sis Xingqing. You even ripped her clothes!

If you werent too weak, how could Big Sis Xingqing have escaped?

Go and die!

Those ladies all began angrily cursing him.

Lin Feng. They personally witnessed it, what do you have to say? Lin Jianchen frowned.

Are these your witnesses? Theyre all her friends, how can their words count?

Then what do you think? Lin Jianchen frowned, clearly wanting Tianming to dig his own grave.

Clearly, theyre framing me. Tianmings reply was full of confidence. Just as Lin Jianchen had wanted, his fearless expression set everyone off.

How could anyone be so shameless!

Theyre from your own branch! A bunch of young ladies and you claim theyre framing you? How could they have the courage?

This b.a.s.t.a.r.d!

Lin Xingqing and the other ladies were furious as well.

Dont argue with him, theres no point. Lin Xingqing panicked.

Big Sis Xingqing! No need to be scared, everyone here will help you!

No one will believe his defamation. Think of who his father was, can this sort of person be brought up well?

As Lin Jianchen had planned, Tianmings reb.u.t.tal had incited public wrath.

Dont let him drag it out. If his grandparents come, black will become white.

Yes!

As part of the audience, Tianming sighed in amazement. Impressive. They know how to feign weakness and win sympathy from pa.s.sers-by with a sense of justice. If enough people say it, you can stick any label on me and turn me into a public enemy. Disciples of a sixth-level nova source world really knew how to play the game of manipulating emotions.

n.o.body present knew the truth; or rather, the truth didnt matter. They were more willing to believe a group of weak-looking women than the infamous son of Lin Mu.

Lin Feng, if you want to dissemble and use your status to bully others, do it at the Hall of Discipline. Dont ruin the business and embarra.s.s us before outsiders. Lin Jianchens goal had been reached. Unless Tianming cut open his stomach, there was no way to prove there were drugs in his system. The patrol quickly charged forward once more.

However, they didnt expect Tianming to take out a gold-and-black sword and rest it on his shoulder.

You dare to resist? Lin Jianchen roared.

Tianming smiled and shrugged, looking at Lin Jianchens disciple card. He was a second son of the clan and a grade-four disciple! His occupation was the team leader of Team Seventy-Three of the Myriadsword Patrol.

Howre you related to Lin Jianxing? Tianming asked.

The question gave Lin Jianchen pause. He hadnt expected Tianming would ask that in this situation. Hes my cousin, why?

They indeed werent siblings. Lin Jianchen was the son of the Third Branch Master, but Lin Jianxing wasnt Lin Xiaoyuns son. That meant that Lin Jianchen was higher in status. However, he was younger and hadnt reached Lin Jianxings level yet.

One of the youths next to Lin Jianchen whispered into his ear, Team Leader, the hysteria herb wont last for long. We should kill him while its in effect! Dont let him babble on! This was their purpose in drugging him. To them, Tianmings seemingly suicidal actions were a result of the hysteria herb; otherwise, shouldnt he be quaking in his boots right now?

Go!

However, they didnt expect Tianming to swing his sword and his expression to turn frosty. Dont move!

You want to resist arrest? Another crime! Lin Jianchen was furious.

A load of hogwash. Dont try to pull a fast one. I may have just come here yesterday, but I already know the Lin Clan House Rules like the back of my hand. Listen up: number one, all fighting is prohibited within the Myriadsword Emporium! Number two, the Myriadsword Patrols responsibility is to maintain order within the emporium. Youre to deal with troublemaker customers, not your own clan members. You lack the authority to bring me to the Hall of Discipline. Third, if you try to attack me here, you all are the ones disrupting order and violating the house rules. Understood? Tianmings words smoothly flowed, giving pause to the patrol team.

What? Want to bully a newcomer? Tianming snorted and flicked his sleeves. The patrol is a nice way of saying security guards. A security guard wanting to arrest a supervisor? Did you even stop to think how ridiculous that sounds?

Security guards! They really hadnt expected Tianming to remain so fearless even now. The audience was furious at his logic.

How can you be so fearless when youre just relying on your grandparents?

He really has no shame.ReadNovelFull.com

If he escapes the law like this, those ladies from just now will have a bad end. Their corpses may mysteriously show up some day.

So scary.

Some Lin Clan disciples helplessly said, Hes right.... According to the house rules, the patrol team may even get into trouble if they touch him.

We have to wait for the Hall of Discipline!

Tianming smoothly made his next move. As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped out of the ninth-floor window and landed on the street outside.

He wants to run!

Dont let him escape!

If he gets to those protecting him, hell turn black into white and may even frame those ladies!

Please help in the name of justice, everyone!

Ive always hated this kind of beast the most!

When Tianming jumped down, he was followed by several thousand people. Clearly, his ident.i.ty as Lin Mus son and a brewing scandal had led to a lot of attention.

Many people made s.p.a.ce when he came down.

What happened?

I heard that the son of Lin Mu a.s.saulted several subordinates on his first day as supervisor.

I heard he even killed a few people to cover it up.

Lin Feng, was it?

Thats him!

Tianming could already hear the rumor mill working full time to exaggerate things as soon as he arrived. The crowd had also swelled to tens of thousands of people.
