A sudden plague swept through Greenlawn City, and a large number of people unfortunately fell ill in the cold wind.
Although Ling Corporation took timely countermeasures, the losses caused by this turmoil were still difficult to make up for.
Unfortunately, Ling Tianfeng, the head of the corporation, was one of them, and he was now bedridden.
The entire Greenlawn City fell into a leaderless situation, and the people who had been suppressed earlier jumped out one after another, causing trouble again.
“Embezzling relief supplies, taking advantage of the situation to line their pockets… how can Greenlawn City be run well with these insects?”
Inside the office, Long Yutian paced back and forth, his face gloomy.
Mo Di sat casually on the sofa, holding a cup of hot tea, silently gazing at the white wall.
Suddenly, Long Yutian seemed to have made up his mind, strode to him, and said firmly:
“Teacher, please give the order. As long as you give the command, I will lead my henchmen to wipe them all out.”
Physical elimination was always the fastest method, and he firmly believed in this.
Whether they were directors of the board or people from other external forces, every single one of them was flesh and blood.
They couldn't withstand modern firearms, nor could they withstand a casual strike from him, a Xiantian Realm martial artist.
“Have you thought it through? Do your father-in-law and fiancée know about this?” Mo Di asked casually.
Long Yutian nodded, “Uncle Ling and Qing Shuang both know and have expressed their support for me.”
“Is that so? Then I have nothing more to say, go ahead and do it.”
He drank the remaining tea in one gulp, and the still-steaming cup was placed on the table by him.
Mo Di stood up, put on his black robe, with the axe of living sacrifice hidden in the hem of the robe.
“Hindering my research and interfering with epidemic prevention measures is one thing, but they even dared to lay their hands on the shard of the light god. I think they all deserve to be slaughtered.”
Did they really think they were still in the peaceful times of the past? Still thinking about playing boring power games?
For such boring fantasies, Mo Di would use his tangible big hand to shatter them all!
The board meeting was about to be held, and the two walked to the conference room and pushed the door open.
The conference room was already full of people. Hearing the two enter, they either looked back or glanced sideways, showing no respect.
Mo Di scanned the room and found that there were no seats available.
‘It seems they implicitly excluded Long Yutian. That’s more like it… But unfortunately, we’re here for a real business war.’
The two said nothing, just silently walked towards the main seat.
Seeing the two walk towards him, a middle-aged man with slightly graying temples in the main seat flashed a hint of displeasure in his eyes, but still smiled and said:
“Nephew, my elder brother unfortunately contracted the plague, and he specifically entrusted the corporation to me to oversee for a period of time. You and Qing Han just need to take good care of him, you don’t need to worry about the corporation’s affairs.”
The implication was to tell them to get lost quickly and not interfere with the corporation’s affairs.
The two ignored him and walked straight to the middle-aged man.
This person was from the Ling Family. Mo Di remembered his name seemed to be Ling Tianming. He had been the most active during this period.
Exchanging a glance with Long Yutian, he casually extended his right hand, pressing his palm towards Ling Tianming’s head.
In an instant, an unprovoked fear erupted in Ling Tianming’s heart. He stared with wide eyes, watching as that pale palm stroked his scalp.
His breathing unconsciously stopped, and time seemed to pass as slowly as a century.
A sharp pain suddenly came. He could feel his consciousness momentarily blank out, and when he regained clarity, his face was burning.
In the eyes of others, Ling Tianming was grabbed by the head by that tall figure, flung onto the conference table, and his face slid across the tabletop for a distance before stopping.
At this moment, his face was covered in blood.
“Oh, how did this seat end up under me?”
Everyone turned their heads, only to see Mo Di sitting grandly in the main seat.
Long Yutian looked around, then followed suit, casually grabbing a person and throwing him onto Ling Tianming, while he took his seat.
“Ah!” Ling Tianming screamed, rolling from the table to the floor, staring at the two with resentful eyes, “Long Yutian, are you colluding with outsiders to usurp power?”
Long Yutian said nothing, just watched him quietly with the gaze one would use for a clown show.
Beside them, everyone finally reacted. Those close by silently moved their chairs away from the two.
And the guards standing by also made their move, attacking the two separately.
A burly man with a big beard, who had a military background, flashed a glint in his eyes and unleashed a Military Dao Killing Fist towards Mo Di’s heart.
In his eyes, a beautiful vision of him defeating the enemy and getting promoted and a raise seemed to appear.
But a sneer shattered his illusion.
“Impure killing intent, no killing intent that stakes everything, and no inexplicable love to drive it. Do you even deserve to use the Military Dao Killing Fist?”
Looking up again, he met a pair of scarlet eyes, and the monstrous killing intent emanating from them instantly engulfed him.
He was in a daze for a moment, then he saw a fist heavily smashing towards him.
“Bang!”
The fist struck the burly man’s head, shattering it into pieces with just one blow.
“This is… the Military Dao Head-Splitting Fist from the Military Dao Killing Fist.”
This thought was his last.
Withdrawing his right hand, Mo Di remained seated in the main seat, his feet not even moving an inch.
On the other side, Long Yutian’s extended right hand exerted a slight force, and the head he had frozen into an ice sculpture exploded into a pile of ice shards.
The entire conference room was silent. After a long while, someone finally let out a scream.
“Quiet,” Mo Di said softly, but his voice overpowered everyone, “Whoever screams again, I’ll kill them.”
Everyone immediately quieted down, fear clenching their hearts, making them not dare to breathe, only looking at the two with terrified eyes.
They were all high-ranking figures, how could they have ever seen such a bloody scene?
The bloodiness was one thing, but the key was that the two’s methods of killing were quite similar, both targeting the head.
One could only say, they were indeed master and disciple.
Mo Di looked at Long Yutian and nodded at him.
He immediately understood, stood up, and announced his decision to everyone:
“I am here to dissolve the board of directors.”
Outside the French window, a lightning bolt just streaked across, and heavy rain poured down.
“Do you have any objections?”
Regarding their own vital interests, the senior executives were stunned for a moment, then someone spoke up:
“Yutian, I know we went too far before, and we were wrong about that, but you can’t just dissolve the board of directors as soon as you come in. This will throw the entire Ling Family into turmoil.”
“That’s right, messing around will cause big problems.”
“Moreover, the world is in turmoil now, with monsters eyeing us from outside. Once Ling Family is in chaos, the entire Greenlawn City will be finished.”
All the senior executives were advising Long Yutian, and also stalling for time.
As long as their private troops arrived, everything would be fine!
They would temporarily tolerate and avoid his sharp edge.
“Now you know that messing around will cause problems? You know the world is in turmoil?” Long Yutian sneered, “Why didn’t you know earlier?”
“You,” he pointed at a man, “embezzled public funds and replaced the company’s designated special medicine with other drugs.”
“You,” he pointed to another person, “after the company took over Greenlawn City, you used your position to intensify the exploitation of the common people.”
“And you, also using the power of your position, coerced women, and even threw parties. You’re over fifty years old and still doing these things? Do you still have that kind of ability? Could it be that you had surgery and got a fake one?”
Long Yutian pointed and criticized, and those he pointed at all lowered their heads, wishing they could bury their faces in the ground.
Especially that disrespectful old man, his face was flushed, he didn’t know if it was from shame or if Long Yutian had accidentally blurted out the truth.
Finally, someone couldn’t stand having their fig leaf ripped off like this and slammed the table, angrily shouting: “Everything needs evidence! Where is the evidence for your words?”
“I think you’re just slandering us, simply wanting to take sole control of the entire Ling Family,” someone echoed.
Mo Di, who had been sitting silently in the main seat, glanced at them and suddenly spoke: “You guessed the second half right.”
He snapped his fingers, and a curse flowed towards the two who had just spoken.
Although they were in a heated conference room, the two shivered in unison.
Turning their heads, they saw that everyone around them was staring at them in shock.
The two were puzzled, and the next moment, their vision went black, and they both lost consciousness.
Only two ice corpses with open mouths remained in their seats, silently telling of the horrifying events that had just occurred.
All the senior executives fell silent, not daring to speak again.
If they could still accept the two killing the guards earlier, they truly couldn’t comprehend the current situation.
With just a snap of the fingers, two people were frozen to death. Was this still something martial arts could achieve?
The conference room door was pushed open, and a team of people walked in.
Hearing the movement, everyone thought their private troops had arrived and excitedly turned to look, only to see a team of strangely dressed people.
They were dressed in black, with an arm guard on their left arm, and a strange mask on their faces.
As soon as they entered, they surrounded the senior executives and saluted Mo Di and Long Yutian.
“The private armed forces plotting against us have been cleared. The entire Ling Corporation building is under control.”
Hearing this, how could the senior executives not understand that their private troops had all been eliminated by this unknown force?
The Ling Family was truly about to fall into the hands of these two.
“Take them down and detain them. Any means are allowed. Make sure they spit out everything they’ve taken.”
Long Yutian waved his hand, and the soldiers of the henchmen force forcibly took away the senior executives present.
They also took away several corpses.
Lightning streaked across the sky, and the heavy rain outside the window continued.
“Those short-sighted fools are finally gone,” Long Yutian leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh, “I plan to promote a group of new people to assist me in managing the corporation.”
“You can decide this yourself, you are the head of the corporation.” Mo Di stood up, walked to the French window, and looked down at the traffic below.
“However, human greed is unstoppable. In the future, among the people you promote, some will definitely go astray.”
Even Long Yutian might do so.
“Indeed,” Long Yutian did not deny this point, “I want to establish a department for overseeing the entire Greenlawn City.”
In his vision, from the corporation’s senior executives down to the common people, all would be under overseeing.
Long Yutian firmly believed that this was a necessary measure under the Mist Crisis. Only in this way could he timely discover various monsters and anomalies lurking in the city.
As for whether this would infringe on privacy rights? He didn’t care about that at all.
“Have you thought of a name for the department?” Mo Di asked with interest.
Receiving a negative answer, he immediately suggested:
“Since there are henchmen, why not call this one ‘Informants’?”
