Chapter 55: The Eternal Night of Ten Thousand Ages, Activate the SSS-Level Operation Order!
Hearing Ye Fan's words, Guo Fei narrowed his eyes slightly.
The meaning behind Ye Fan's words was very clear—he was on bad terms with these uniformed officials.
Yesterday, after recognizing the token of the Xuanwu Heavenly King, Guo Fei immediately reported the situation to his superiors.
The reappearance of the Heavenly King's token had directly alarmed the highest commander of Xuanwu. He personally contacted Guo Fei and asked him to give a detailed account of everything that had happened.
In the end, the order he received was:
Cooperate fully with the Heavenly King in all actions. Regardless of what appearance the Heavenly King assumes or what orders he gives, they must be obeyed unconditionally. He may even mobilize all forces under Xuanwu.
Guo Fei wasn't stupid.
From the commander's words, he could already sense that there was more to the matter.
The youngest young master of the Ye family had been able to become the Heavenly King of the Xuanwu region. He definitely possessed genuine ability.
More importantly, Ye Fan was currently pretending to be mentally disabled, yet the higher-ups were still protecting him so strongly.
That could only mean one thing.
Ye Fan most likely wasn't actually a fool. He was pretending in order to deceive his enemies.
“Take them down!”
Without the slightest hesitation, Guo Fei immediately gave the order, instructing his men to take control of all the uniformed personnel.
Those who had intended to take Su Yixue away lost their freedom in the blink of an eye.
Although they were wearing official uniforms, they were no match for Guo Fei's men in terms of numbers, combat strength, or any other aspect.
“Deputy Commander Guo Fei, do you know what you're doing?”
The leading officer among the uniformed personnel still tried to argue.
“We are carrying out official duties. By openly opposing us like this, you're interfering with our work. Can you bear the consequences?”
But Guo Fei showed them no mercy.
“Shut up! Do I need you to teach me how to do my job?”
“Take everyone away!”
“Let me make this clear to you: the Su Corporation is one of our military's pharmaceutical suppliers. If you dare to take action against the Su Corporation, you are making yourselves enemies of our military. Whatever problems there are, we'll discuss them after you go back!”
Gasp!
Guo Fei's voice wasn't particularly loud, but everyone who remained at the scene heard his words clearly and felt their hearts tremble.
When had the Su Corporation become a pharmaceutical supplier for the military?
Ye Fan, however, glanced at Guo Fei and raised his eyebrows.
This kid really knows how to handle things!
Ye Fan couldn't guarantee anything about other areas, but as for the Tianlong Army and Xuanwu Army, if they purchased medicine from the Su Corporation, the annual business volume would probably amount to at least several hundred billion, right?
Hmm.
Looks like this really could be arranged.
Clatter!
In only a brief moment, the uniformed personnel who had been acting so arrogantly were all taken away.
Su Yixue stared blankly at Ye Fan.
When did Ye Fan become acquainted with people from the Xuanwu military?
Normally, the military didn't interfere in the lives of ordinary civilians.
Yet because of just one sentence from Ye Fan, Guo Fei had directly taken away so many uniformed officials.
And those officials had represented a joint law-enforcement operation involving three major departments!
At that moment, Su Yixue suddenly realized that she couldn't understand Ye Fan anymore.
What secrets was Ye Fan hiding?
He was still pretending to be mentally disabled, yet he was already this powerful.
If Ye Fan eventually recovered and returned to his former monstrous genius state, what kind of terrifying existence would he become?
Suddenly, Su Yixue became filled with anticipation for the future.
If Ye Fan really awakens someday, then as his wife, wouldn't that be an incredibly wonderful thing for me as well?
The immediate crisis facing the Su Corporation had been temporarily resolved.
Next came the problem of the company's frozen bank accounts.
Freezing a company's accounts required the cooperation of the industrial and commercial authorities, police, and several other departments.
But the most direct authority involved was the bank itself.
“Miss Su, don't worry. I've already contacted some old friends. They'll have news very soon!”
“I also contacted some of my elders and friends, Yixue. They'll find a way to help!”
“Miss Su, I've already asked Yuncheng's Governor Sun Qian to go speak with the president of Huaxia Bank!”
Lei Qianjue, Yu Linglong, and Xia Hao all began making phone calls frantically, using their connections to help the Su Corporation resolve the problem.
Ye Fan glanced at Guo Li.
“I need to go to the bathroom. Old Guo, come with me.”
“Okay!”
Guo Li knew that Ye Fan must have another hidden trump card behind him.
He immediately agreed and was about to leave with Ye Fan.
Wang Fugui hurriedly followed them.
“Big Brother, I'll come with you too!”
Although Wang Fugui wasn't particularly clever, he had recently begun to realize that Ye Fan seemed to be hiding something from him.
Ye Fan told Xia Hao about certain things but didn't tell him.
Are my lips really that loose?
“Old Wang, seriously...”
Guo Li was speechless.
“Big Brother is just going to the bathroom. What are you worried about? I'm a Grandmaster-level expert. Can't I protect Big Brother?”
“You stay here and contact your grandfather. Hurry up and ask him to help resolve your sister-in-law's family's problem!”
Guo Li was certain that Wang Fugui had also noticed that something was going on.
“Right, right!”
“You're right! Look at my brain—I completely forgot that I could ask Grandpa for help. I'll call him right now!”
While Wang Fugui was making his phone call, Ye Fan and Guo Li quickly entered the company's bathroom.
“Old Guo, lend me your phone.”
Given the current situation, Ye Fan had decided to mobilize the power of the Tianji Pavilion.
However, he didn't want to reveal his identity so quickly.
The message recorded inside the Dragon-Pattern Ring had clearly stated that ever since the previous Pavilion Master had fallen, the Tianji Pavilion itself had not been completely united.
If news that a new Pavilion Master had appeared leaked out, Ye Fan's current strength might not be enough to deal with the trouble that followed.
After taking Guo Li's phone, Ye Fan quickly entered a long string of encrypted codes.
He then dialed a number.
“When the wind rises from the duckweed, the eternal night begins!”
These were the secret words of the Tianji Pavilion.
They were also one of the recognition phrases recorded inside the Dragon-Pattern Ring, serving as one of the proofs of succession between the previous and new Pavilion Masters.
After the simple eight words were spoken, there was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.
Then a burst of movement could suddenly be heard.
“Your subordinate Pang Hai pays respects to the new Pavilion Master!”
“This old servant has waited for twenty years. Has the Tianji Pavilion finally begun its revival?”
Pang Hai was the general steward of the Tianji Pavilion.
Before the previous Pavilion Master was killed through a plot against him, he had spoken with Pang Hai once and instructed him to temporarily take charge of the Tianji Pavilion's internal affairs.
The new Pavilion Master would appear fifteen years later.
And now, the new Pavilion Master had finally appeared!
“Yes.”
“But it's inconvenient for me to reveal myself right now. Don't contact me unless absolutely necessary.”
“I called you today because there's an urgent task.”
“The bank account of the Su Corporation in Yuncheng has been frozen. I need you to mobilize the Tianji Pavilion's forces and have the account unfrozen within ten minutes.”
“Also, suppress all negative news concerning the Su Corporation.”
“Can you do it?”
“Rest assured, Pavilion Master. This old servant will do everything in his power!”
Over the years, Pang Hai had barely managed to keep the Tianji Pavilion operating, and he was already mentally and physically exhausted.
Within the Tianji Pavilion, various factions had been secretly preparing to make their moves.
With the Pavilion Master having disappeared for fifteen years, even Pang Hai was almost unable to keep them under control.
At this moment, the appearance of the new Pavilion Master represented the hope of the entire Tianji Pavilion's revival.
Naturally, Pang Hai would give everything he had to accomplish the new Pavilion Master's very first mission.
Although the Tianji Pavilion had suffered considerable internal losses over the years due to its internal struggles, it was still one of the top three massive organizations in the world.
Resolving such a small matter in Yuncheng was naturally no problem for them.
Pang Hai's public identity was the president of Jiuzhou Group, a trillion-yuan conglomerate that dominated the eighteen provinces of Southwest China.
Inside the Jiuzhou Group's office, Pang Hai hung up the phone.
He practically ran across the room to the wall opposite his office.
He pressed a switch on the wall.
A hidden door immediately opened, revealing a passage behind it.
Pang Hai entered.
After passing through the secret door, he arrived at a massive command center.
The room was enormous and could accommodate at least several hundred people.
Various data-monitoring screens were displayed everywhere, while countless electronic screens continued flashing.
No one would ever have imagined that this place was actually the temporary headquarters of the Tianji Pavilion!
“All personnel, move immediately!”
“Activate the SSS-level operation order!”
“Execute the mission at the fastest possible speed...!”
