My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 262: Redressing a Grievance

"Group Leader Xu, you may not know this, but my previous company was destroyed by the Kang City Commercial Alliance using these very same methods. I have some documents here you might find interesting. They detail how the Kang City Commercial Alliance used coercion and enticements to steal my company's patented technology, and even how they harmed innocent people."

At that moment, Yang Qi took out his phone and transferred several files directly to Xu Tiancheng's phone.

"And this gentleman is...?" Xu Tiancheng looked at Yang Qi, completely astonished.

To think someone could sit on equal footing with the War God King. It's astounding!

"This is the owner of Qifei Group," the War God King said indifferently. "And he is my friend."

A friend! A friend of the War God King!

Xu Tiancheng's eyes widened in disbelief.

This is too astonishing! The behind-the-scenes boss of Qifei Group is actually a friend of the War God King. Thank goodness I was cautious this time. If I had wronged Qifei Group, I would've been finished!

Soon, the autopsy report arrived. The victim had indeed died from a drug overdose, and it was from an entirely different medication. Combined with Xu Tiancheng's earlier investigation, it was revealed that just before his death, the victim had signed an agreement with the Chen Family. It stipulated that his family would receive one million Dragon Coins in compensation. The conclusion was undeniable. This was a setup, a malicious frame-up!

"You are a very capable man," the War God King said, waving his hand, "but I hope you won't let preconceived notions guide your work. Go now. I want the results by tomorrow!"

"Yes!"

Xu Tiancheng was seething. The Kang City Commercial Alliance had nearly ruined him this time. Fortunately, he hadn't fallen for their trap. And fortunately, Qifei Group had argued its case rationally, with the War God King himself mediating. Otherwise, he really would have delivered a wrongful judgment. He now despised the Kang City Commercial Alliance and the Chen Family with a passion.

"Thank you for your help, War God King!" Yang Qi said with genuine gratitude. If he had been forced to handle this himself, it would not have been so simple.

"Think nothing of it. I am merely upholding justice," the War God King said with a smile. "The Energy Pill is a good product. I've used it myself, and everyone in the military says it's excellent. I can't allow such a fine medicine to be slandered! Besides, you are my benefactor."

Regardless of his reasoning, Yang Qi was deeply thankful. As the War God King, he could have easily stayed out of the affair, but he chose not to. That alone commanded immense respect.

「The next morning」

The special task force announced that all details and results of the investigation would be disclosed that day.

Hearing this news, the Chen Family Head and several vice presidents of the Kang City Commercial Alliance were already celebrating their supposed victory.

"Hahaha, this Xu Tiancheng is truly something else! So upright and incorruptible. He doesn't give face to anyone. Lei Qingtian and Zhao Xiong both tried to talk to him, and he ignored them as well!"

"Indeed! We had to pull a lot of strings and spend a fortune to get him put in charge of the task force!"

The Chen Family Head sneered, "Otherwise, do you think it would have been such a coincidence?"

"Brilliant, Family Head Chen! You had it all planned out from the start." Everyone was full of admiration.

"Of course. After all, this Yang Qi is connected to Qifei Group, and by extension, to Zhao Xiong and Lei Qingtian. If it were anyone other than Xu Tiancheng, they might have just let it slide. That's why it had to be him!" the Chen Family Head said proudly.

"Excellent! Then let's wait for the results!"

Everyone raised their glasses. "To our great victory! Cheers!"

BANG!

Just then, the main doors to the Chen estate were slammed open. A group of guards from the Heavenly Supervision Hall swarmed in, surrounding everyone. Though the Chen Family's martial artists were formidable, they wouldn't dare oppose the Heavenly Supervision Hall.

The Chen Family Head and the vice presidents of the Kang City Commercial Alliance were dumbfounded, having no idea what was happening.

Xu Tiancheng gave them a cold glance, flashed his credentials, and announced, "Xu Tiancheng, Group Leader of the special task force!"

"Xu Tiancheng!"

The crowd was even more bewildered. What was he doing here?

"Group Leader Xu! What brings you to my humble home? My sincerest apologies for not coming out to welcome you!" the Chen Family Head said, forcing a calm facade as he clasped his hands in a polite gesture.

"Heh, you all seem to be in high spirits. Are you celebrating a successful plan, perhaps?" Xu Tiancheng sneered, his eyes sweeping over the lavish spread of food and wine on the table.

"I'm afraid I don't understand what you're talking about, Group Leader Xu," the men said, feigning confusion.

"You don't understand? Then I'll be blunt. You are all under arrest. The Chen Family and all its subsidiary businesses are to be seized!" Xu Tiancheng declared coldly. At his side, an officer immediately produced an arrest warrant.

"No, that's impossible!" the Chen Family Head cried, shaking his head. "I haven't committed any crime! Why are you arresting us? Group Leader Xu, you must have made a mistake!" 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"No crime?" Xu Tiancheng scoffed. "You poisoned a man by having him ingest a massive dose of harmful drugs, and then you framed Qifei Group for it. Family Head Chen, the man you sent to do your dirty work has already been captured. He confessed to everything and even provided some very interesting materials. Furthermore, you attempted to destroy the corpse to cover your tracks. Unfortunately for you, I had the body switched out beforehand! What else do you have to say?"

BOOM!

The news struck them like a bolt from the blue. The Chen Family Head, who had been desperately holding his composure, finally collapsed to the floor.

「Three hours later」

The special task force held a press conference, releasing all the evidence and the results of their investigation.

To the astonishment of countless people, Qifei Group was declared innocent. It turned out to be a frame-up orchestrated by the Chen Family, one of the four great families of the Kang City Commercial Alliance. All individuals involved had been arrested and would now face the judgment of the law.

Qifei Group's name was cleared.

In front of the media, Xu Tiancheng made a public apology. "This incident has caused tremendous loss and damage to Qifei Group's reputation. For that, I must apologize!"

At last, Qifei Group was completely exonerated.

But that wasn't all. Even more groundbreaking news followed. The War God King mentioned Qifei Group's Energy Pill in a public address, stating that he himself used it. He assured the public that its effects were surprisingly good and that everyone could use it with confidence.

Although the War God King wore a mask, Yang Qi was truly grateful to him. The War God King's influence was far greater than Chen Guo's. His single endorsement caused Qifei Group's reputation to skyrocket.

In public statements, Ye Fei and Li Qingyan announced that the company would guard against arrogance and rashness, continue to produce the best possible medicine, and repay the love and support of the War God King and their loyal customers.

As a result, not only did Qifei Group's business operations fully recover, but their orders surged to an all-time high.

In contrast, the Kang City Commercial Alliance suffered immense losses. Its market value was nearly cut in half. Many companies and families that had originally joined the alliance withdrew one after another, leaving it weaker than ever. Of the four great families of the past, only the Song and Qi Families remained, and their combined market value had plummeted to less than a tenth of its former glory. It was a truly miserable outcome.

「Somewhere in the Dragon Country」

The place was like a paradise, its existence likely unknown to ordinary people. The scenery was breathtaking, teeming with rare and exotic creatures. Nestled amongst the encircling peaks, a massive, ancient-looking structure sat upon the mountainside, radiating an aura of timeless charm.
