Chapter 849: Chapter 498: Who Approves, Who Objects?
Domineering!
Arrogant!
Confident!
At this mont, Chen Yuan, who sat at the head position, exuded such an aura, directly ignoring everyone, looking down on all in the Heavenly Patrol Hall with contempt.
Including the two Heavenly Patrol Golden Envoys inside the hall.
At this mont, ti seed to freeze, and no one dared to break the silence. The several Vice Envoys of the Core Realm, while shocked, simultaneously focused their eyes on Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi.
Originally, the head position was occupied by Huangfu Qi, but later, due to a power struggle with Feng Jiuying, both sides reached an impasse, and it was tacitly agreed that the seat would remain vacant until a victor erged.
After all, everyone understood the significance represented by this position. Even though their official ranks were all Heavenly Patrol Golden Envoy, only the one seated there held the authority of the Liangzhou Golden Envoy.
Do not underestimate the prefix ‘Liangzhou,’ because it represents authority and leadership over the Liangzhou Heavenly Patrol Bureau, controlling everything.
But…
Now, Chen Yuan had blatantly occupied the seat, even without a word of greeting, an utter display of contempt. How would the two Golden Envoys respond?
Thoughts swirled in the minds of these Vice Envoys, and so even considered that things would not end peacefully today, potentially leading to a massive confrontation, and causing chaos within the entire Liangzhou Heavenly Patrol Bureau.
Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi watched as Chen Yuan directly ascended to the head seat, their brows furrowing simultaneously, a flicker of anger arising from the indifferent and serene gaze of Chen Yuan.
Contempt!
This was blatant contempt!
They originally thought Chen Yuan was sensible and knew his place, that he would co forward and greet them with respect, and they were prepared to speak first before Chen Yuan had a chance.
Yet…. it was completely beyond their expectations.
Chen Yuan actually sat at the head position.
How dare he!!!
Previously, they even considered that as long as Chen Yuan was sensible and respected them as seasoned Golden Envoys, they would give him so benefits, sharing a part of their power with him.
Once he had polished his credentials, they would ceremoniously send him off from Liangzhou.
Now it seed unnecessary.
Even though Chen Yuan’s reputation had spread throughout Jianghu, they could not tolerate handing over that position to him. If they had such intentions, why struggle and fight so fiercely?
They must teach this brat a lesson!
Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi simultaneously had this thought, took a deep breath, and reprimanded:
“Presumptuous, Chen Yuan, how dare you directly occupy the head position, do you not see us!”
Huangfu Qi’s voice was rough, like a great bell, imdiately speaking after Feng Jiuying’s rebuke:
“Scoundrel, are you courting death!”
In an instant, the atmosphere in the Heavenly Patrol Hall shifted from silence to one of tense confrontation.
Facing the barking of Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi, Chen Yuan paid it no mind, looking down at them and said:
“Do you think you deserve to be in my eyes? It’s not that I’m targeting anyone, but I believe everyone present is worthless. Since you dare not sit in this position, then I’ll take it!”
“Arrogance!”
“Presumptuous!”
Hearing Chen Yuan’s words, Huangfu Qi and Feng Jiuying imdiately took a step forward, their imposing aura instantly surrounding Chen Yuan, as if to act imdiately.
But such an aura was insignificant to Chen Yuan now.
With his strength, unless it was soone in the top five of the Fengyun List, he wouldn’t even consider them, let alone Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi? These two may have enough qualifications, and are not lacking in strength.
They might have the strength equivalent to the bottom of the Fengyun List.
However, there is a vast difference between the top five and the bottom.
Chen Yuan was already able to kill Tang Xianzhuo while in the True Core Realm, let alone them?
So, faced with the simultaneous imposing presence of the two, he just naturally smiled and said:
“Our Heavenly Patrol Bureau is different from other Governnt departnts. Others rely on seniority and rit, but in the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, especially when you and I are of equal standing, it should be strength that decides everything.”
“Always plotting in secret only makes others laugh at your incompetence. It should be an open and fair competition. If you win, I will resign and seal my credentials, no longer serving as the Liangzhou Golden Envoy, and whether I stay under you or leave Liangzhou will be for you to decide.”
“But… if I win, then I take the Liangzhou Golden Envoy seat, and should you harbor any further ambitions, I will simply crush you two useless weaklings!”
Chen Yuan’s tone gradually turned chilly, as if utterly unconcerned with their erupting aura.
“How do you want to compete!”
Huangfu Qi glared at Chen Yuan, being reprimanded by this young upstart was an imnse humiliation, enough to make him forget the strength Chen Yuan had previously displayed.
But Feng Jiuying hadn’t forgotten, he retained a bit of clarity, understanding that Chen Yuan’s posture was aid at forcing them into action, and once the three of them moved, the higher-ups would turn a blind eye.
If it were an ordinary Heavenly Core level, it might be manageable, but Chen Yuan ranked twenty-first on the Fengyun List, and neither he nor Huangfu Qi could be his match in a one-on-one duel.
It was extrely disadvantageous for them!
Then he spoke:
“Chen Yuan, what you’re plotting is clever, but you should know that internal conflict is prohibited in the Heavenly Patrol Bureau. If this matter spreads, there won’t be good outcos for us.”
Chen Yuan was aware of Feng Jiuying’s caution, so he addressed him:
“I understand your concerns, mainly that you fear not being my match. So, to avoid accusations of bullying from my side, I’ll give you a chance to join forces.
