Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 728 - 85 The Collapse of Order_3

728: Chapter 85: The Collapse of Order_3

728 -85: The Collapse of Order_3

The grand trend was unstoppable, and Song Zhuo fully realized that he had been utterly defeated.

Song Que’s reputation would soon return to its peak; people’s trust in the Judgment Knight had already completely crumbled.

That so-called statement from the scientist of the Eye of Nature had also been one of Song Que’s tactics.

This man used to be very honest, but now he had become crafty and calculating.

Song Zhuo believed that while Song Que might not flaunt his control over the First Bastion everywhere, he had already firmly established himself there.

The stability of the Pyramid system for hundreds of years was also going to be damaged.

For a moment, Song Zhuo suddenly felt a regret about why anyone would give birth to him instead of Song Que.

…

…

Baichuan City.

In stark contrast to the chaos and panic of the Pyramid, the winter days in Baichuan City were too cold for comfort, yet the streets were peaceful and tranquil.

Song Que was growing even fonder of this place; through his and Li Xiaoyu’s efforts, Baichuan City was gradually restoring its former glory.

After handling the bastion matters, Song Que instructed Lin Jue and others to continue detaining Song Zhuo and the rest of the Song Family.

In Song Que’s view, it wasn’t time yet to release these people.

As for Song Que himself, he went to find Li Xiaoyu to report on some work.

“Has Tang Xian not returned yet?” asked Song Que.

“No,” Li Xiaoyu replied naturally, maintaining a facade of normality even in front of Song Que.

“He won’t be in trouble,” said Song Que, who was aware of the girl’s concerns for Tang Xian.

“Hmm.

How about your side, everything going smoothly?”

“Yu Xiaozhe and Qin Qian are in charge of the extradition.

If all goes well, Baichuan City will once again welcome a large group of bastion residents within a month.”

“Good,” Li Xiaoyu was very satisfied with Song Que’s increasing efficiency in getting things done.

She now understood why Tang Xian had taken such a liking to Song Que back then.

She still remembered Tang Xian’s admiration for Song Que during that dance.

This man was a hero.

No one could replace Song Que because heroes—were just too rare in this era.

The matters of gods and demons were to be handled personally by Tang Xian while those related to people were better suited for Song Que.

Because heroes tend to influence others unconsciously.

“My father and sister, they might also be in the next migration.”

“Song Gengzhao?” Li Xiaoyu always referred to the Song Family members by their given names.

Song Que didn’t mind.

“Song Gengzhao I remember was always competing with my dad.

Has he stopped now?” Li Xiaoyu’s eyelids trembled slightly.

Song Que shook his head, his expression filled with content:

“We all change, and growing up is a continuous process of changing oneself.

This is true for our fathers’ generation.

Mr.

Li has changed too.”

Li Xiaoyu turned her head away, not letting Song Que see her expression.

Her tone stayed as usual, deliberately repressing her emotions:

“My dad is very stubborn.”

Song Que had intended to tell Li Xiaoyu that the Li family had actually been a big help this time.

But he was not clear about why exactly Li Wanye had made people doubt the Judgment Knight.

He explained to Song Zhuo that Li Wanye had seen further ahead, and indeed, that was true.

But just how far into the future had Li Wanye seen?

Was his stepping back truly to assist them?

These were things Song Que wasn’t sure of either.

Therefore, he didn’t speak up; the words reached his lips but then were swallowed back.

Li Xiaoyu merely smiled faintly.

She was incredibly intelligent.

Although Song Que had not spelled it out, she could imagine that if there was a problem with the Judgment Knight, the root of it lay either with Constantine or the Li family.

And whichever it was, the present highest authority of the Pyramid System surely knew.

People beginning to doubt the Pyramid System would naturally start questioning the Li family.

Li Xiaoyu suddenly felt envious of Song Que; after all, he could live with his family.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately couldn’t form the words.

The inner anxiety, the worry about the Li family, at such a time she didn’t know who to talk to.

At this moment, how much she wished Tang Xian were right there by her side.

(The volume is coming to an end.

As before, the most exciting parts of the plot are saved for the end of the volume.

The same is true for this time.

The last dozen or so chapters are still in the process of being thoughtfully crafted, with the aim to surpass the previous volume if possible.

Then again, despite showing a good number of readers, subscriptions are dwindling, and the subscription ratio is getting lower.

I hope everyone can support the official release…)
