First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!-Chapter 723: Think It Over—I’ll Say Just One Thing: Only Those Not Standing in Front of Me Count as the People
Lu Ding stood up.
Since the invitation had been issued, he would definitely make a grand entrance.
There was just one thing that was quite a pity.
If Ding Busi hadn't surrendered and instead chose to stick with his brother, walking the dark path to the end, that would have been better.
In that case.
Lu Ding wouldn't have to consider whether he might accidentally harm the normal members of the Ding Family.
Given the current situation, he could only send a message.
[Think for yourselves. I'll only say one thing: those who do not stand before me are the common people.]
If the members of the Ding Family branch stood together with the main family members, blocking Lu Ding's path.
Then there would be nothing more to say.
Responding to the investigator who came to report, he said, "I understand. Send them a reply. I will attend the banquet shortly."
The investigator closed the door and left.
Walking towards the changing room, Lu Ding said, "Xinghe, go gather the men. Set up the weapons. After I start the fight later, clear the surrounding residents as quickly as possible. Remember, do not casually let a single person escape!"
Today was a grand spectacle.
Therefore.
Lu Ding didn't plan to use the [Black Prison of Death's Body]. He was going to stage this grand spectacle for the entire New City to see!!
To tell everyone!
The past was the past, and the present is the present.
In the past, Wuwang could act arrogantly in front of the old 749 Bureau. But the current Wuwang, in front of the 749 Bureau he leads, cannot afford to be arrogant!!!
Elite!?
He was here to crush the elite!
In the past, everyone knew that Wuwang members came and went without a trace, fighting and fleeing as they pleased, making it difficult for the 749 Bureau to deal with them.
But today!!!
Lu Ding would tell everyone that once you come, you fucking don't even think about running away!!
Life, he decides. Death, he also decides.
If he doesn't agree, not even the Heavenly King himself could save these Wuwang demons.
Lu Ding would use this open and aboveboard battle to sound the horn for recruitment.
To establish the prestige of the 749 Bureau!
Even if it meant leveling the area for a hundred, a thousand miles around the Ding Family, it would be worth it!
What's the big deal about paying compensation?
The current White Ridge 749 Bureau could afford it!
Once the surrounding residents were all cleared away, Lu Ding would let them feel what it meant to be dominated by a giant's fear!
"Yes, Brother Lu!"
Fu Xinghe knew that Brother Lu was about to go all out.
As he spoke, the corner of his mouth lifted: "Brother Lu, can we witness your full power once again this time?"
Lu Ding walked into the changing room, changed into his scholar-warrior sleeves and black wide-swinging robe, and emerged.
His chin lifted slightly, arrogance on his face: "Have you seen my peak period?"
Fu Xinghe was stunned for a moment: "Haven't I?"
Lu Ding laughed: "Not just you, even I haven't seen it. Maybe we'll get to see half of it today."
He turned and walked towards the door.
Fu Xinghe paused for a moment: "I haven't seen it........"
Then he hurried to catch up.
At the same time.
The Ding Family.
The Wuwang members intending to deal with Lu Ding had basically all arrived.
Inside the side courtyard.
Ding Busan cupped his hands in a level salute, showing courtesy to these people.
Although deep down, he didn't really think much of them.
Each one hiding their heads and tails, not daring to show their true faces.
But, he still had to say the nice things:
"Esteemed heroes of Wuwang, Lu Ding has already agreed to attend the banquet. I have prepared a colorless, odorless poison. Once the wine has made three rounds and the dishes have been tasted five times, I will signal by smashing a cup. You can then swarm him and chop him into six, seven, eight, nine pieces hahahahaha........"
"Corpse-Shattering Taishui, dismembered into pieces instead. Isn't that beautiful!!?"
He spoke with relish.
But he didn't notice that the expressions of the surrounding Wuwang members, which had been somewhat acceptable, instantly darkened upon hearing his plan to use poison.
Although they weren't good people.
Among them, some also used poison.
But they at least wouldn't do something as despicable as luring someone over under the pretense of feasting, only to poison the food and drink behind their back.
Despicable!!!
However, things had already progressed to this point. The arrow was on the bowstring and had to be released.
So no one said anything.
They just silently scorned this behavior in their hearts.
As a result, Ding Busan, far from feeling ashamed, took pride in it.
Thinking others approved of his actions.
He was still talking: "After the deed is done, I must trouble you heroes to help me, Ding Busan, put on a little act. Otherwise, I cannot bear the charge of conspiring to murder a Special Envoy."
Yuwen Longyuan, as the organizer and leader of this operation.
Stepped forward and said, "Don't worry, Family Head Ding. We will handle the aftermath properly."
He emphasized the word "will".
If this Ding Busan hadn't pulled this poison stunt, Yuwen Longyuan might have still helped him put on an act.
Although he and that Corpse-Shattering Taishui were on opposing sides, with conflicting interests.
For such a heaven-defying genius and powerhouse, a man who truly did his duty in his position, Yuwen Longyuan still held respect in his heart.
Such a man, even in death, should die a proper death in battle!
Not from poisoning.
Therefore, facing Ding Busan, this cunning character who was neither a hypocrite nor a true villain.
Put on an act?
Act my ass!
When the time comes, we'll act until your family is ruined and its members dead.
Yuwen Longyuan had already decided. After it was done, he would definitely shout loudly, 'Thank you, Family Head Ding, for helping us kill Lu Ding!!!'
Then you can go bear the wrath of the 749 Bureau.
Ding Busan didn't catch the profound meaning in Yuwen Longyuan's reply.
Satisfied with himself, he said, "Then I must trouble you heroes to temporarily act as guests and wait for the banquet. I will first go to the entrance to await and receive Lu Ding. After all, he is a Special Envoy. We should still go through the proper formalities. Let him enjoy the airs of a Special Envoy one last time before he dies."
"Come, Ding Xing, accompany your Great Grandfather to receive the Special Envoy."
In the past, even though Ding Xing's talent and combat power were high, his status as a branch family member made Ding Busan feel that no matter how high Ding Xing's talent was, the branch family was always the branch family.
Now, however, the more he looked at Ding Xing, the more pleasing he found him. He even considered changing Ding Xing's status to that of the main family.
He couldn't wait to take him everywhere.
"Yes, Great Grandfather."
As Ding Xing replied, he secretly winked at Yuwen Longyuan. The two instantly confirmed each other's identities.
After the old and young of the Ding Family had left.
Several members spat in unison.
"I spit on that!"
"Disgusting!"
"Despicable!"
Even Gao Qiuli shot a disdainful glance.
Then she asked Yuwen Longyuan, "What about him? When will he arrive?"
Since arriving here, she had been looking for the figure of Lu Ding's vest, but none of the people she saw resembled him.
Now that they were about to take action, that person still hadn't shown up.
She couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Yuwen Longyuan smiled meaningfully: "I'll ask him."
He formed hand seals, establishing a connection.
[Where are you?]
The message was sent.
Instantly, he received a reply.
[Almost there. Are all your people gathered?]
"He's on his way, coming quickly."
Yuwen Longyuan said this to Gao Qiuli.
Then he continued forming hand seals.
[Yuwen Longyuan: We are all prepared and ready. We're just waiting for you.]
[Then I'll pick up the pace a bit.]
[Yuwen Longyuan: Waiting for you.]
[Mmh.]
The hand seals dispersed, ending the chat.
He looked at Gao Qiuli again: "He's speeding up. He should probably arrive before Lu Ding gets here."
