《World of Experts 》Chapter 161: Dead End
Advertisement
In a special room of Council Hall used for the interrogation of suspects, Zhang Han walked in with Wei Wentong and Li Heng. However, there were already three people sitting in the room. They looked strict and wouldn’t tolerate the least bit of falsehood. Behind those three people, three men were standing. The momentum of those three men was outstanding. They were not ordinary people.
At this moment, Wei Wentong looked over and stared at those three sitting bigshots. Then, no matter what he thought inwardly, he still respectfully said: “Lord Wen, Lord Zhong, Lord Zhou, you three are in good spirits…”
Li Heng also put up a look of a noble lady and displayed appropriate etiquette.
It seemed that Wei Wentong and Li Heng also knew that they should restrain themselves in front of these newly-arrived lords. If these three people didn’t make things difficult for them, then their good days would continue. Just a trifling Zhang Han, an A grade historical NPC, was not enough to kill Wei Wentong.
In fact, these three were also S grade historical NPC and rank 2 officials. Only if they cooperated could they pose a real threat to Wei Wentong.
As a matter of fact, Wei Wentong himself was also to blame. If it weren’t for always being ambitious and proud, not giving a good impression from the very beginning to these three lords, he wouldn’t have fallen into such a passive position.
Among these three lords, only Lord Wen wanted to get rid of Wei Wentong at all cost. As for the other two, they were here mostly because Wei Wenton was too lawless, moreover, Lord Wen was their good friend. Therefore, to give a bit of face and also because of this incident, they made up their minds to get rid of Wei Wentong.
The three lords said in unison: “No need to ramble, aren’t you here because you don’t believe in the result of our interrogation? Good! Li Yong is in here, you can personally interrogate him…”

Wei Wentong suddenly frowned. He hadn’t expected that Zhang Han would still play a trick on him. Zhang Had had never told him that the three lords were here.
Wei Wentong was vexed now. Wasn’t this just adding fuel to the fire, making the three lords more upset with him? Not talking about Lord Wen who hated him, the other two were not completely against him. Merely, as matters stand, there was truly no chance to ease up with them.
Since this was the case, he didn’t need to be polite with them! Rather than hoping that they would take the initiative to let him go, it was better to make sure by himself. Like Li Heng said before, thoroughly reject everything Li Hong said.
Wei Wentong also didn’t speak nonsense. He ferociously strode straight towards Li Hong.
He saw that Li Hong was heavily bound and kneeling at one side. His appearance was quite pitiful. The previous proud and arrogant appearance couldn’t be seen. Perhaps, this was his original bearing, just a cowardly hooligan without a single redeeming feature.
Zhang Han sat at one side and quietly watched the opening of a drama with interest. Li Heng, nevertheless, was a clever person. She could see that Li Hong already had no way to survive. So, she also quietly watched the opening of a drama in fear that this matter would even implicate herself…
Wei Wentong ferociously berated: “Bastard! Who on earth instigated you to slander the officials of Divine and Mighty Alliance? Do you know the punishment for everything you did?”
Wei Wentong’s sharp gaze penetrated the bones: “Considering Li Heng’s face, I supported you and took particular care of you. But I never thought that you, a worthless wretch, actually return evil for good like this. Do you want to bury your elder sister and me for you?”
Wei Wentong’s words were equivalent to telling Li Yong, ‘You can die by yourself, but don’t drag him, Wei Wentong, and Li Heng into the water’.

Li Yong was also a somewhat intelligent person. He understood the deep meaning behind Wei Wentong’s words.
However, Li Yong was not a person with a backbone. Speaking about it, he was brutally beaten up by people before, and those people were here in this room. Those people were none other than those three men standing behind the three lords.
But who were those people? Perhaps, someone might already know them at this moment. Those three were Extinct God, Dian Wei and Lu Bu.
Extinct God was Shi Hao’s disguise. Extinct God had already made an agreement with the protection force of Li Yong that they would pretend to see nothing, letting him sneak into Li Yong’s house and then kidnap the other party. Like that, these fellows would be able to vent their anger and basically whitewash themselves from this matter. In the future, even if someone found it out, they would naturally say that they know nothing in unison and Extinct God had sneaked in by himself.
Naturally, they had also considered the situation of Extinct God’s failure. After all, Lu Yi and Pan Er hadn’t agreed to intentionally let Extinct God go. If Extinct God was caught by Lu Yi and Pan Er, then that also had nothing to do with them. They would never help Extinct God.
Although they had allied with Extinct God, in this kind of matter, they had naturally made it clear that they were neither relative nor friend.
Fortunately, when Extinct God made a move, inexplicably, Li Yong was caught smoothly. Even Lu Yi and Pan Er seemed to be expecting Extinct God to take Li Yong away.
This was also reasonable. Lu Yi was Lu Bu. He and Extinct God were the actors of a drama. How could they have internal conflict? Pan Er was Pan Feng. He, however, was still waiting for Li Yong to ask for help and give him that item as a reward.
Unfortunately, Pan Er didn’t get anything. Instead, he had to fight against Lu Yi for Li Yong’s empty promise.
Pan Er’s critical hit truly pressured Lu Yi, but via Lu Yi’s skill, Pan Er’s attack was reduced by 15%, whereas Lu Yi’s attack and defense were increased by 60%. In addition, Lu Yi was more skillful. He actually used an attack to forcibly break Pan Er’s critical-hit attack. Pan Er was just able to slightly reduce his HP, which was nothing at all.
After all, at this moment, Lu Bu’s attack had reached 177.6 and Pan Feng’s critical hit attack was also 188.7. However, it was very rare to see someone attacking when facing a critical hit. It could only be done if one had an incomparably high attack bonus.
As for afterward, Pan Er naturally ran away. And Li Yong promised to give that treasure to Lu Yi, but he still fell into Extinct God’s hand. Lu Yi just had a ferocious look but didn’t make any move.
Finally, with the arrangement of Shi Hao’s handwritten letter taken out by Extinct God, Lu Bu and Dian Wei jointly beat Li Yong up and was secretly sent to Zhang Han.
Therefore, the current situation…
At this stage, Li Yong basically didn’t think much. Those three lords had said that as long as Li Yong became the witness, he would still have a way of survival. It was not impossible to peacefully live his days in prison.
Presumably, such a good offer was given to Li Yong because these three lords were determined to get rid of Wei Wentong. Otherwise, at least Lord Wen would have executed Li Yong on the spot!
Lord Wen had always advocated the way of loving common people. Even a thousand deaths were not enough for people like Li Yong.
However, things didn’t go smoothly. Wei Wentong, who was in the dead-end, erupted in final anger and pledged to keep his honor…

The Solstice Wars
In the grey-cloaked cityscape of modern London, student William Whiteswift has two secrets: the Fae walk among humanity, and they are just as vulnerable as us. His childhood was filled with them; they spawned nightmares and episodes, dreams and obsessions. The nightmares remain, of course, but the fae are his normal. Now, he heals them, for William is gifted. When he saves a faerie -- a humanoid fae -- from an injury he can’t explain, William is forced to let her stay. Finally, he may have taken on more than he can handle; Ainsel could uproot his life in seconds. Instead, she cracks a Pandora’s box of mysteries: someone just flipped her home on its head. And because of that, she did something unspeakable. And somehow, she doesn’t want to hurt him. The longer she stays, though, the crueler his nightmares grow. Worse, governments hide secrets, too: they know of faeries. To them, all fae are monsters fueled by solstices and equinoxes. As the autumn equinox approaches, the culling agency COURT hurries to track Ainsel down. With teams across the United Kingdom and Ireland -- iron-strong despite the region’s history -- they are nearing success. A world away, their country wounded, the faerie leaders hunger for justice. In the looming shadows of war and of Ainsel’s mistake, can a human and a faerie protect each other against their own kind? Could their plight mend rifts between bitter nations and bitterer people? Or will it, like past attempts at peace, shatter? Quick note! I hope you all enjoy the Irish (Irish Gaelic) words here and there! All are defined or explained within the text. This is my chance to show off speaking it at least somewhat decently. Still learning. ;D -K
