Chapter 1014: Chapter 114 Overseas Youzi Association
Shen Qingyi left Luohua Manor after informing Feng Jun.
Kunlun, in exchange for three damaged Magical Treasures, desperately sought information related to Zhuang Shuai, including his alias Wang Guang.
In fact, Wang Guang had close contacts with Bai Mu, which was sufficient motivation for Kunlun to seriously investigate the matter—Bai Mu, whose real na is Bai Chuanmu, a person of the Nihong Descendants, cooperated internally and externally with unworthy disciples of Kunlun, almost seizing the item Feng Jun was interested in by force.
Due to this pressure, Kunlun truly used up all their ans, activating many hidden agents within The Secular World.
After acquiring specific information, they used secret techniques to notify Shen Qingyi, stationed in the manor.
Shen Qingyi also knew that the current Luohua Manor was too conspicuous for safe ssage transfer, and specifically made a trip out of the manor.
Then she reported to Feng Jun: Zhuang Shuai is serving an organization of the Nihong Descendants.
This organization is a bit peculiar, mostly consisting of Nihong descendants living overseas. Lacking governntal support from the Huaxia authorities, they are not highly regarded; Kunlun had contact with this organization twice.
However, in the eyes of Kunlun, the Huaxia Daoist Sect is not worth ntioning, let alone the barbarian Nihong people.
But they have so impressions, knowing that this organization harbors significant resentnt towards the Nihong, with quite deep conflicts.
Speaking of the Nihong nation, it also has its distinctiveness. Nihong people scattered around the world are not few; they also wish to return to their holand, but native Nihong people… have considerable discrimination against them.
Simply put… if you’re not a native Nihong person, you’re basically not considered a Nihong person.
Moreover, the discrimination by the Nihong people is quite unique; they do not articulate it openly, but use indifference and disregard to create a transparent “barrier wall,” invisible and intangible, but undoubtedly there.
Overseas Nihong people are particularly infuriated by this phenonon, yet powerless—no one openly expresses discrimination.
Feng Jun was not very interested in this, “What I want to know is, have you figured out who the mastermind is yet?”
“It’s likely a Nihong Descendant nad Ito Jiro,” Shen Qingyi first pointed out the na and then stated, “but there’s no evidence.”
Feng Jun looked at her with a half-smile, “Evidence, whether it exists or not, does it matter… Does Kunlun act on the basis of evidence?”
Shen Qingyi didn’t consider evidence important either, her ntion was rely a statent, “This person left Huaxia for Africa five days ago… Also, Bai Chuanmu is a mber of this organization.”
“Tsk, they fled quite fast,” Feng Jun smacked his lips, a trace of unwillingness in his eyes, “Besides this person… how much more do you know about this organization?”
“We know about a dozen more mbers,” Shen Qingyi replied gravely, “mainly concentrated in Magic City, with a few in Capital City and Sheep City. If you need detailed information, I can prepare a report for you.”
“Then prepare it,” Feng Jun said indifferently, but the murderous tone was unmistakable, “To deceive once or twice, the fault lies with them; if it happens three tis, the fault will be mine.”
Shen Qingyi wasn’t surprised, since Kunlun would act similarly in such situations; she didn’t think there was anything wrong with Feng Jun planning revenge, “Alright, give two days at most.”
However, that sa afternoon, Elder Yu sent soone to find Feng Jun, claiming to have so leads on the investigation of Zhuang Shuai.
Feng Jun was about to deliver dicine to Elder Yu, so he heard from him about the “Overseas Wanderer’s Association.”
Still, he didn’t want to fully accept this favor—he had also discovered so things, so he directly asked, “I want to know, when will soone nad Ito Jiro return to Huaxia?”
Elder Yu’s security was montarily stunned, “You know him too?”
“More or less,” Feng Jun didn’t look triumphant—since the person had already fled, what was there to be proud of? “This person is a pri suspect, unfortunately, I have no evidence.”
“We have evidence,” security gravely stated, “those few days when the incident occurred, he wasn’t in the Capital City. Through relevant technical ans, we can almost ascertain that he was in Zhengyang that evening.”
Technical ans… Hearing this term, Feng Jun couldn’t help but smile, presuming that as long as it’s notviolent or barbaric thods, it could probably be regarded as technical ans.
What’s with that expression? The security thought inwardly, yet continued, “We can guess that he fled out of guilt, so it’s hard to say when he will return next ti.”
“Heh,” Feng Jun chuckled, initially intent on taking covert action, but upon rethinking, decided to give advance notice as a form of gesture, hence he said, “This matter… won’t just be dropped like that.”
The security personnel suddenly fell silent, turning their eyes towards Elder Yu.
Elder Yu still bore his slow deanor, taking a long ti before speaking, “I hope you remain cautious in this matter, not blindly escalating the situation… Are you planning to escalate it?”
Feng Jun did not expect him to ask so directly—this was his misunderstanding of people within the system, always assuming that everyone spoke in a roundabout way. In fact, the higher the position and authority, the more concise and to the point their speech, aiming to avoid being misunderstood.
He hesitated for a mont before answering, “In my plan, expansion is inevitable, I do not have the patience of a turtle… after all, they’re just a bunch of Ni Hong people, not citizens of Huaxia. I am actually curious, who gave them the audacity to create trouble in Huaxia?”
“This… we should discuss it at length,” Elder Yu slowly spoke, then turned his head to security, “You talk…”
Security started babbling, turns out this Overseas Youzi Association of Ni Hong has factions within as well.
There’s a faction that wants to return to their holand, desperately seeking recognition from Ni Hong holand. In one sentence, it’s akin to, “The holand treats cruelly again and again, yet I treat it as my first love.”
Then there’s a faction that relies on foreign strengths, primarily rrick, because in the eyes of the Nihong people, except for Mai Nation as their father, other countries are underdeveloped. Since they already have Mai citizenship, they naturally have the ground to look down on Ni Hong locals.
There’s also a faction that believes, “If you don’t love , why should I love you?” which doesn’t need further explanation.
Besides these, there are also nurous factions in the middle.
The allegiances of these factions are not entirely fixed and can be adjusted or switched.
Take Bai Chuanmu, a Ni Hong descendant with Mai citizenship, he might belong to the faction relying on foreign strengths, but he also harbors sentints for the holand faction—if he completely leaned towards rrick, he would’ve completely Westernized and wouldn’t be interested in Daoist or Buddhist culture anymore.
However, what Security ant to say was, in this Wanderer’s Association, there are actually many who are fond of Huaxia—albeit subconsciously. This could have been a force to rally, so why push these people away?
He was very worried that once Feng Jun went down the path of expanding grudges, it would disrupt and even set back related work.
After listening, Feng Jun looked sideways at Elder Yu, “Elder Yu, is this what you an?”
Elder Yu saw his expression and knew what he was thinking. The problem was, he knew Feng Jun was not soone easily persuaded, so he hesitated for a mont and nodded, “Young man, it’s good to be patient, don’t injure your allies by accident.”
“So what if there’s accidental injury?” Feng Jun smiled dismissively, “True allies aren’t afraid of being hurt. I think those indecisive allies are dispensable… if Huaxia wants to rise again, it ultimately needs to rely on itself.”
“There’s never been a savior, nor relying on fairy-tale emperors… and wishy-washy allies.”
“Heh,” Elder Yu actually laughed upon hearing this, “You should have said you wanted to vent your anger, instead of using those lofty excuses.”
“I’m indeed venting my anger,” Feng Jun also laughed, then his expression beca serious, “Strictly speaking, it’s not just about venting anger, but to warn certain people that so things are unacceptable… if you don’t hit them hard, there will be a next ti.”
Elder Yu was silent, he sighed after a long while, “Still, we should focus on the bigger picture.”
“Haha,” Feng Jun scoffed, thinking to himself how the bigger picture had nothing to do with him.
Seeing his indifferent attitude, Elder Yu sighed again, “Yes, nowadays, young people rarely think about the bigger picture.”
“Young people are just used to finding their own way,” Feng Jun casually replied, “Those who used to think about the bigger picture are mostly laid off now.”
Elder Yu was speechless, pointing at him, “You really do say so odd things.”
“Is what I’m saying odd?” Feng Jun retorted, looking unconvinced, “When I couldn’t afford a house, I didn’t see the country lowering house prices in consideration of the bigger picture, instead, they wanted to push for mortgages and harvest another round… doesn’t your conscience hurt?”
“Your idea of a bigger picture doesn’t match mine; I’m just an ordinary citizen and not that highly enlightened!”
Elder Yu, left speechless, he obviously knew, so of Feng Jun’s complaints were in fact true, but also that it’s easy to criticize without offering solutions, “Many things are too complex to explain to you… various factors are involved.”
“That’s right, big issues are not to be shared with everyone; I understand that,” Feng Jun nodded, then boldly retorted, “Since I don’t have the right to know, does that an my opinions can be ignored? Now, when my interests are hard, you want to think about the bigger picture… isn’t that too much?”
Elder Yu was left speechless, “You are being utterly unreasonable.”
“That’s a double standard,” Feng Jun responded without hesitation, “When it’s about rights, my opinions are ignored; when it’s about duties, I should sacrifice my own interests, otherwise, I’m not following the bigger picture?”
Security couldn’t hold back any longer, “Sooner or later, you’ll get an explanation, what’s the hurry?”
Feng Jun sneered mockingly, “Justice is always late, and sotis it even resigns… is that right?”
Security beca slightly anxious, retorting, “There’s a rrick-citizen Ni Hong nad Bai Chuanmu, I wonder if Master Feng has heard of him? This person has been missing for a long ti.”
