Special Expert of Beauty CEO-Chapter 1545 - 1549: Did Xu Junwei Confess?

When Xuan Ye arrogantly called out Xiao Zhan's name and finished speaking, the entire living room fell silent instantly, the atmosphere suddenly tense.

Qin Tian and Lei Shi both saw that Xiao Zhan's expression changed instantly!

His cheeks began to twitch, with a look of anger in his eyes!

He forcefully suppressed his anger, staring at Xuan Ye.

Xuan Ye was obviously aware that Xiao Zhan was angry, but he seemed indifferent and said, "What, you don't understand what I'm saying? Humph, you think you, as a Governor of East Capital City, are high and mighty?"

Xuan Ye stared at Xiao Zhan with a disdainful sneer: "In the Imperial City, I've seen high officials two or three levels above you, even members of the Royal Family, whom I dare to disregard. And you? Are you dissatisfied with me?"

"If you're dissatisfied with me, you can report to the Imperial City. Of course, you can also act now and kill me, if you have the guts and the ability."

Xuan Ye's words grew increasingly excessive, and Xiao Zhan's jaw trembled with rage.

"Humph, Xuan Ye, do you have a temper? Do you think the old man will be afraid? Fine, today I won't hand over the person! In East Capital City, I'm curious to see what ability you have to take someone from my hands!"

Xiao Zhan was thoroughly enraged, his words shouted with True Qi, instantly stunning Xuan Ye and Fu Long.

They seemed to not expect that the usually non-confrontational Xiao Zhan with the Soul Suppressing Hall would be so tough this time.

"Xiao Zhan, you asked for this!"

Fu Long stepped forward, preparing to draw his weapon!

Qin Tian and Lei Shi stepped in front, saying in unison, "You dare!"

The atmosphere suddenly turned tense, just as Fu Long was about to forcefully act, Nangong Minghua and Nangong Bingfeng hurried in from outside.

"Gentlemen, gentlemen, we're all on the same side, no need to get angry, no need to get angry!"

Seeing Xiao Zhan and Xuan Ye both refusing to back down, Nangong Minghua hurried to mediate.

"Governor Xiao, this matter does involve a suspect from the Long Yin within your troops, and it's said that the Soul Suppressing Hall already has evidence. If you continue to obstruct, this might be too much... For my sake, could you cooperate with the Soul Suppressing Hall to investigate properly?"

Nangong Minghua went to Xiao Zhan's side and said in a low voice, "Brother, why bother fighting against the Soul Suppressing Hall? They are the Emperor's people, and if this escalates to the Emperor, whom do you think he will support? It's not worth it for us."

Before Xiao Zhan could reply, Nangong Minghua turned to Xuan Ye and said, "Hall Master Xuan Ye, today's issue is purely a misunderstanding. With a Long Yin appearing in the City Guard Army, Governor Xiao is as shocked and infuriated as any of us, so there was some anger, but surely you can be magnanimous."

Nangong Minghua said with a smile, "Hall Master Xuan Ye, how about this, this Wang Yushan is locked in the City Guard Army prison. Well, the City Guard Army will be responsible for his safety. If any incident occurs with Wang Yushan before your interrogation is complete, the City Guard Army will take responsibility. How about it?"

Xuan Ye paused, his brow slightly furrowed.

Nangong Minghua leaned in and said, "Hall Master Xuan Ye, this is just a small matter. We'll be working together in East Capital City for many years. Why make an enemy of Governor Xiao? He controls the four city gates, and our goods will inevitably need his cooperation. Show him some respect this time, and I'll handle the intermediary work. He'll surely reciprocate in the future..."

"Fine, City Lord Nangong, this time for your sake, this Long Yin will be detained with the City Guard Army."

With Nangong Minghua's reminder, Xuan Ye's expression instantly softened, and he approached Xiao Zhan, saying, "Governor Xiao, it's all a misunderstanding. No need for us to fall out over a Long Yin, right? How about this, you handle the detention, and I'll handle the interrogation. What do you think?"

"Alright, since Hall Master Xuan Ye puts it this way, if I, Xiao Zhan, refuse to give face, it would be my fault. Let's do it this way. When do you want to conduct the interrogation?" Xiao Zhan said.

"Starting today, I want to conduct a swift investigation," Xuan Ye said.

"Alright, just in the City Guard Army's first prison cell, go ahead."

Xiao Zhan pursed his lips, suppressing his surprised expression, and said, "Someone, escort the Soul Suppressing Hall's officers to the prison!"

After Xuan Ye left with the Soul Suppressing Hall people, Xiao Zhan said to Nangong Minghua, "Brother Nangong, thank you for resolving the conflict just now."

"Haha, no need to be polite, it was a small matter."

Nangong Minghua said, "By the way, brother, this Wang Yushan was your rear logistics commander, and he's actually a Long Yin? All these years, how didn't you notice?"

"This guy, he's hidden too deeply..."

Xiao Zhan shook his head, his gaze turning to Bai Xiuqin.

Bai Xiuqin awkwardly lowered her head and hurriedly said, "It was a dereliction of duty on my part. I really didn't detect any sign of Wang Yushan being a traitorous Long Yin... To me, he never seemed like one..."

"Haha, General Bai, you can know a person's face but not their heart. I used to think East Capital City was absolutely safe. Who would have thought that the remnants of Long Yin in East Capital City would be so numerous? Besides Wang Yushan, I heard the Soul Suppressing Hall also caught two others. One is a Long Yin from the Imperial City—his name I don't know—but I heard he confessed to many things."

"Another person you won't guess... Haha, the remnants of Long Yin really spared no effort. They even planted someone at our East Han Academy! And it's a teacher of high standing and moral integrity!"

Nangong Minghua was extremely remorseful and said, "The teacher Xu Junwei from East Han Academy is actually a Long Yin! Can you believe it?"

Hearing this, Xiao Zhan and Lei Shi were both shocked, and Qin Tian quickly showed a surprised expression as well.

Lei Shi said speechlessly, "Is it confirmed that Xu Junwei is indeed a Long Yin? Wow, I've met Xu Junwei a few times, and I quite admire him, selfless and a good person... Is he really a Long Yin? I just can't believe it."

"That's the scary part about Long Yin. They hide so well that ordinary people simply can't tell,"

Nangong Minghua shook his head, "Before, East Han Academy had placed great trust in Xu Junwei, but who would have thought he was a traitor? He has brought shame to East Han Academy! If it hadn't been for a confessed Long Yin, Xu Junwei might have continued hiding, and none of us would have discovered it!"

Nangong Minghua marveled and shook his head, "Everyone used to say Long Yin was powerful and terrifying. I didn't understand before, but now I finally know why the Ice Emperor set up the Soul Suppressing Hall specifically to deal with Long Yin! They are indeed a great threat to the Tianyuan Dynasty!"

"I've specifically attended Xu Junwei's classes before..."

Bai Xiuqin was equally shocked, looking at Nangong Minghua and said, "City Lord, did Xu Junwei confess? Did he admit to being a Long Yin?"
