Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 433 Is the Liu Family Really That Powerful?
Qing Cang said proudly. He knew what he might face, but he was not afraid. Before leaving, he glanced at Elder Yun, his eyes full of disappointment.
He knew that Elder Yun had always wanted to help them, but Elder Yun was timid. Because of his commoner background, he was somewhat weak. Therefore, he wasn't very forceful in helping them!
And this time, Elder Yun's performance also disappointed Qing Cang. He knew that Elder Yun's cowardice was because he was afraid of losing his position as an elder. With the power of the Four Great Families, it wouldn't be difficult to remove him and replace him with another commoner elder.
Although Elder Yun rarely spoke at the council, as an elder, his life was still quite affluent. He certainly wouldn't be happy if he were suddenly reduced to his original state and had to live the life of a commoner again.
So he didn't dare to insist, because he had a large family to support. Because of this, although Qing Cang was disappointed with Elder Yun's performance, he didn't resent him in his heart!
It's a kindness for others to help you, and there's nothing wrong with not helping you. After all, no one owes anyone anything. It's not realistic to expect Elder Yun to risk his family to help him with all his might!
Therefore, Qing Cang only glanced at Elder Yun, but said nothing, and walked directly towards the conference room. Liu Buzhu gestured to his two guards with his eyes. The two understood and immediately followed, their eyes fixed on the evolution drug in Qing Cang's hand!
Liu Buzhu himself looked at Elder Yun and said coldly:
"Elder Yun, I advise you to go back and rest quickly. You should know how serious this matter is. If you don't want to be implicated, it's best not to say anything! Go home quickly, and say hello to your family for me!"
Elder Yun didn't speak, but nodded helplessly, turned around and left with a look of loneliness...
Li Chenzhou's room was a sealed space with no windows, only a door. The walls, floor, and ceiling of the room were all made of the same kind of metal material. The material itself emitted light, so there was no need for lamps. The room was brightly lit, and the light was very soft, not at all dazzling!
Just looking at this room, Li Chenzhou knew that the technology of this world was definitely far beyond his own. Therefore, Li Chenzhou couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.
Think about it, even a world with technology far surpassing his own has become a farm for Devourers. Does his side really have the ability to fight against the Devourers?
However, the Devourers will inevitably come, so whether they can do it or not, they have to fight. Otherwise, their planet will be completely reduced to a farm for the Devourers, at their mercy!
On the other side, Qing Cang had also entered the conference room. Facing the crowd in the conference room, Qing Cang was not at all timid. When he volunteered for the suicide squad before, he had already taken life and death lightly.
"Let me see the potion in your hand."
After Qing Cang entered the room, everyone was looking at the potion in his hand. Several of them had greedy gleams in their eyes. An old man took the lead in speaking.
Qing Cang didn't waste any words and directly placed the injection on the round conference table. Then, he spoke again, carefully explaining the function of the potion as Li Chenzhou had said.
He had barely said two sentences when Liu Buzhu and Captain Jin walked in. Liu Buzhu didn't speak, but listened carefully to Qing Cang's introduction. When they heard that the evolution potion had such heaven-defying effects, everyone's eyes lit up.
As for Captain Jin, he was also interested. However, he was just here to watch the show, and because he himself was a commoner, he knew that Liu Buzhu wanted to target Qing Cang, so he came to keep an eye on things.
Qing Cang wasn't Captain Jin's family or anything, so Captain Jin could protect Qing Cang within a limited range, so that Liu Buzhu wouldn't dare to go too far.
"Have you said everything? Is there anything missing?"
After Qing Cang finished speaking, Liu Buzhu finally spoke.
"No, that's all!"
"Alright!"
Liu Buzhu reached out and picked up the evolution potion on the table, looked at it, and said:
"Then the matter about that person has nothing to do with you. Now, you need to explain why you attacked my guards. Of course, we have something to do now and don't have time to listen to your explanation, so you should go with my guards! They will handle it impartially!"
Hearing Liu Buzhu's words, the others looked at each other, but no one said anything. The people here were all from the Four Great Families, because no one knew before that the outsider would have such good things, so they didn't take it seriously.
The Avengers Alliance and the military did not send anyone over. Only the Four Great Families sent people who were actually not valued in the family, who came in just to occupy a position, as well as Elder Yun, who had just been driven away.
Among these people, Liu Buzhu was the most special, because he was the youngest, and also a direct descendant of the Liu family. To put it bluntly, he came here to gain experience and achievements, to pave the way for future promotion.
Therefore, he has always been relatively strong here, and others don't talk much. Although they all represent the Four Great Families, the degree of importance is different, and the right to speak is naturally different.
None of them wanted to easily offend a direct descendant of the Four Great Families, because once there was a conflict, the family might sacrifice them to smooth things over. This was also the main reason why Elder Yun didn't dare to be tough!
However, Captain Jin didn't care about Liu Buzhu's identity. The Avengers Alliance was a unique existence. As long as they didn't commit any principled problems, basically no one would argue with them!
And now, Liu Buzhu's handling method obviously did not conform to the rules. Even if Qing Cang hit the Liu family's guards, the Liu family was definitely not allowed to interrogate him privately. What's more, Liu Buzhu actually wanted Qing Cang to follow his guards?
"Since when have the Liu family's guards been able to exercise the rights of a judge? Is the Liu family already so powerful now?"
As soon as Liu Buzhu finished speaking, Captain Jin asked coldly.
"This... Captain Jin, I just... feel that this is a small matter and doesn't need to be reported. As long as we take him back, we can solve it privately."
Liu Buzhu was stunned, and when he looked back, he realized that Captain Jin had also come in, so he quickly said.
It wasn't that he was afraid of Captain Jin, but he mainly didn't want to provoke the Avengers Alliance for the family.
"If it were someone from your Liu family, then it would naturally be inconvenient for me to interfere. But Qing Cang is from the military, so this matter cannot be resolved privately by your Liu family!!!"
Captain Jin said with a cold face.
"Thank you, Captain Jin!"
Qing Cang smiled and thanked Captain Jin, then looked at Liu Buzhu:
"Even if Captain Jin doesn't say it, I don't have time to explain anything to you now, and your guards are not qualified to take me away. Besides, I have to go back and reply to Li Chenzhou!"
"Hmph! I've already said that this matter has nothing to do with you from now on! Also, I have to remind you that today's matter is not over, I will remember you!"
Liu Buzhu stared at Qing Cang gloomily...
