King of Assassins-Chapter 827 - 608: Believe in Yourself
"Black Tiger is done for."
Inside the Cloud Eagle Battleship, a Special Services member muttered, his tone complex.
The Special Services Department has always looked down on the Field Department, and Leng Li constantly had opinions about Gao Xuan. Today, Gao Xuan clashed with the Noble Youth, and the Special Services members saw it clearly.
To be honest, the Special Services members didn't like Gao Xuan, and were happy to see him having a tough time. But seeing him bullied by the Noble Youth still made them uncomfortable.
This is the natural aversion the lower class has for the Noble Youth; it's a natural conflict between two classes. Their dislike for Gao Xuan was an internal conflict.
But Yu Hong'en bullying Gao Xuan was an external conflict, a class conflict.
Of course, the Special Services members never studied sociology, but they've lived long enough to know their own standing and understand their own class.
These class conflicts require no explanation; with time, everyone naturally understands them.
Gao Xuan is already considered to have escaped the lower class, but even so, in the eyes of the Noble Families, he's nothing more than a dog.
This made all the Special Services members feel a deep sense of sympathy.
Leng Li noticed the odd atmosphere and clapped her hands to remind everyone, "That's Black Tiger's problem; it's none of our business."
A Special Services member couldn't help but say, "The Noble Families are damn disgusting."
"Shut up."
Leng Li reprimanded coldly. Criticizing Yu Hong'en was fine, but bringing up Noble Families was a big issue. This is the era of the Noble Families, and any attempt to oppose them is a path to self-destruction.
The member realized he had misspoken and bowed his head without saying anything further.
Leng Li thought for a moment and said, "You don't need to worry about Black Tiger. Just now with all of Yu Hong'en's clamoring, his expression didn't change. The man is very deep and quite skilled.
"Besides, he has the Xu Family behind him. We just need to handle our own affairs."
The Special Services Department could discuss Gao Xuan's matters freely, but the Field Department didn't have the luxury.
Ten Flying Fish Battleships escorted the Yaksha Biochemical Armor, and all the field operatives kept their mouths shut tightly. They seemed afraid that words might accidentally slip out.
Especially with Gao Xuan aboard that Flying Ship, the field operatives even lowered their breathing to the minimum.
No matter their views on Gao Xuan, at this time, no one dared provoke Gao Xuan.
In front of the Noble Families, Gao Xuan was insignificant, but in front of Gao Xuan, they were even more insignificant. Especially with Gao Xuan in a very bad situation, who knows if he might go crazy.
Gao Xuan's expression remained calm and tranquil, without any excess emotion.
Everything was within expectation. Rising by stepping on people comes with a price. The Yao Family wasn't acting directly but found the Yu Family People to intervene, which wasn't that clever.
The Yao Family surely spared no efforts to get in with Yu Hong'en.
Killing Yu Hong'en would naturally be a piece of cake. However, there's no need for that.
When Gao Xuan returned to the headquarters with the shipment, completed the inspection and handover, he went to Xu Jun's office.
"Minister Xu, I have something to report to you."
Over the past three years, Gao Xuan rarely interacted with Xu Jun alone. This scion had ability, was fair in his conduct, and at least treated Gao Xuan fairly. But his inherent Noble Family habits were strong. Sitting together, there wasn't much to talk about.
After Gao Xuan finished explaining the situation, Xu Jun nodded, "Yu Hong'en, this person is quite a wastrel but is quite famous on Taurus. That's because he completed Foundation Establishment."
In this era, there are various means to aid cultivation. With piled-up resources, as long as one isn't foolish, it's possible to push through Foundation Establishment.
However, in such a large Noble Family, not everyone can enjoy abundant resources. Yu Hong'en's status in the Yu Family isn't particularly high, but he stood out entirely due to his cultivation talent.
Xu Jun knew Yu Hong'en was looking for trouble, so he immediately investigated his background.
The Taurus Star Yu Family has developed rapidly over the past millennium. Their power is substantial.
The Yu Family has little influence on Pegasus Star, but Yu Hong'en himself is a master. If he tears faces and insists on killing, the matter is indeed quite troublesome.
Xu Jun didn't particularly like Gao Xuan; he always felt Gao Xuan was too reserved, and had premeditated intentions with Xu Fang.
Including befriending Master Yuan and pleasing Wei Ying — these are all his tactics.
On the flip side, Gao Xuan truly is very capable. He can handle any task excellently. He's quite a valuable talent. His only flaw is his low origin.
Precisely because of this shortcoming, Xu Jun dared to confidently utilize Gao Xuan.
Now that Gao Xuan faces a challenge, Xu Jun, too, must help him resolve it to the best of his ability.
This is not only for Gao Xuan but also for the Xu Family's reputation. Suppressing the Yao Family's counterattack while proving the Xu Family's strength.
"Don't worry, I'll handle the matter of Yu Hong'en myself."
Xu Jun promised, "The Yao Family can find people, and our Xu Family has even more friends."
He admonished Gao Xuan, "Be careful in the coming days, don't give them any excuse to act. Endure a bit."
Gao Xuan nodded; Xu Jun was indeed reliable. At least he was willing to step up to protect him.
If Xu Jun didn't care about him, the Xu Family could avoid many troubles. But in the long run, it would lose the people's hearts.
Using someone and then abandoning them, no one would want to follow such a path.
After returning from Xu Jun's office, Gao Xuan went straight to the Medical Department. He talked to Xu Fang seriously about the situation, advising her to stay at the Xu Family for a few days.
Xu Fang was quite worried about Gao Xuan, but Gao Xuan was right; she couldn't help much, better to return to the Xu Family and reduce his burden. Furthermore, she could persuade her family to help Gao Xuan.
After arranging Xu Fang, to avoid trouble, Gao Xuan directly stayed in the office.
The Minister's office had a separate living area, complete with all living facilities, making it suitable for long-term stays.
