The one issuing the challenge was none other than Rol, who had just walked out from the Cleanliness Departnt.
That night, he celebrated his escape by throwing a lavish banquet at ho.
Halfway through the drinking, he boldly declared at the table, "This matter won’t just end like this; those who wronged should be trembling!"
Having just been released, he was so arrogant that so guests started thinking—aren’t you causing trouble for the family?
Soone in the family also realized the inappropriateness, quickly coming out to smooth things over, saying Rol was just overly excited.
Anyway, this guy is always flashy in his actions, please understand him and don’t take his words seriously.
However, after the banquet ended, those words still spread far and wide.
The quartet received the news the next day, and this ti it was Zi Jiu Immortal who couldn’t sit still—wasn’t that arrogance a bit too much?
She contacted Qu Jianlei via her watch, wanting to discuss whether they should make a certain response.
"Let’s keep waiting," Qu Jianlei stated calmly, "When the heavens rage, rain falls; when humans are arrogant, calamity cos. I’m quite looking forward to their counterattack."
He was never a passive person and didn’t like handing over initiative to others, but this ti was an exception.
This was a thod of struggle in a peaceti environnt, relatively innovative, not simply following the law of the jungle,
he purposely wanted to see how the situation would ultimately develop, which would help him deeply understand the Imperial societal conditions.
Moreover... Gwendolyn had yet to show any new movents, which he was also sowhat expecting.
In the afternoon, Ye Xiangkong went to the library to find Qu Jianlei, bringing new information—not related to the Green Water quartet.
A few days ago, the Ye Family asked so people to secretly put forth efforts, aiming to completely suppress Rol.
Because of Zi Jiu Immortal’s stance, their efforts weren’t substantial.
But even such a small effort was carefully traced out, and today these few faced either overt or covert targeting.
Ye Xiangkong wasn’t concerned about their situation—that was sothing the adults in the family needed to consider; he was worried about Panda Teacher.
So he hurried over to remind the teacher that it might be best not to go out casually in the near future.
Upon hearing, Qu Jianlei was not as indifferent as before—this was the rhythm of revenge not overnight?
He frowned slightly, "This family acts so wildly... how could they still develop to this point?"
Ye Xiangkong nodded in agreent, "Robin Hood acts this way too, the true man is really annoying."
After his sentint, Qu Jianlei didn’t forget to remind the other, "Let your family worry about this matter, just focus on your studies well."
The next morning, Bellini couldn’t resist her anger, catching Mosman on a minor mistake and harshly criticized him.
Mosman, being quite introverted, was nearly brought to tears by her scold.
He could guess why the teacher’s attitude towards him had changed.
After class, he called his dad—what exactly did you tell the teacher?
At noon, Bellini received a call from Gwendolyn.
He calmly spoke on the other side, "Bellini Teacher, is it interesting to vent an adult matter on a child?"
Bellini, of course, denied it outright, "You’re overthinking, there’s no relation between the two; a student made a mistake, can’t a teacher criticize?"
This answer left Gwendolyn at a loss for more words; he snorted coldly, "Do you think transferring my child is difficult?"
Bellini, having a tomboy temperant, was not very gentle, "How you decide doesn’t need to be reported to ."
Wengnis sighed upon hearing this, "Truth be told, I wasn’t initially planning to actively contact you all."
"I was always waiting for you all to proactively contact ; otherwise, sothing too easily obtained won’t be cherished by you."
"Now that you’re targeting my child, I’ll ask one question, have you thought over how to end this?"
Aside from an irregular orientation, Bellini really didn’t have much of an issue; she snorted coldly in response.
"First, I didn’t target anyone; second, I don’t know why I need to end, was there ever a beginning?"
"You’ll know in a few days," Gwendolyn snorted coldly and hung up the communication.
Afterward, Bellini inford the other four about the situation.
Then... no one spoke, the room fell silent.
After ten seconds or so, Qu Jianlei and Xiang Xue asked in unison, even their tones were identical, "Do these two families have a Supre?"
"Supre?" Bellini was startled by the question, "Isn’t your perspective a bit too high?"
However, the always graceful Zi Jiu Immortal spoke up, "Vision doesn’t matter, just estimate the enemy liberally."
Bellini pondered and replied, "It’s possible to know a Supre, but probably no specific support; otherwise, they wouldn’t act this way."
If a Supre were willing to intervene, they’d co at it directly.
A rarely speaking Aunt Liu chid in, "Then let’s wait and see what they intend to do."
Bellini, always apprehensive of this taciturn person, was stunned, "Without a Supre, aren’t you afraid?"
Aunt Liu’s face remained expressionless, but Xiang Xue lightly snorted, "Supres also vary in strength."
Bellini’s mind imdiately turned furiously: does that an... even a weaker Supre, wouldn’t you be afraid?
At this mont, her gaze towards Xiang Xue was full of anticipation, "You’re not deceiving ?"
"Is it necessary to lie to you?" Xiang Xue glanced at her helplessly, "We are the ones involved, not you!"
Two days later, new news ca that an official nad Poliana was found and provoked by soone.
The person who provoked her had a similar cultivation level, both B-level, and is currently a Mine Master.
They were actually classmates, and it is rumored that sparks flew between them back then, but unfortunately, those young sparks couldn’t withstand the test of ti.
The official had so say over the mine, but Poliana rarely put a "chokehold" on her "ex-boyfriend."
The two were getting along just fine, and then suddenly this incident popped up, which was quite unexpected.
The ex-boyfriend accused her, saying she had been taking advantage of him for years and made so unspeakable demands.
He demanded that Poliana duel with him on the life-and-death platform, or he would keep reporting her.
This news spread, and most people simply didn’t believe it. Would soone as proud as Poliana settle for leftovers?
The real issue is the accuser himself, who has been loitering around brothels for years and has fathered over ten illegitimate children.
Anyway, no matter how you look at it, this whole thing reeks of oddity.
Poliana didn’t accept his challenge and rely said, "If you want to report, just go ahead and do it."
Afterwards, soone noticed that the unexpected events faced by this female security officer were likely Rol’s retaliation.
One is a B-level, the other a C-level—albeit a crippled C-level, is that a fair match?
In so way, it actually can be.
Poliana is relatively young, and with her higher cultivation and status than Rol, it’s natural she finds his arrogance unbearable.
But Rol was a typical example crafted by the governnt, and he wasn’t directly under her command, so not listening to her was also normal.
In short, they couldn’t stand each other, yet neither could do anything about the other, making their relationship quite poor.
After Rol was taken away by the Cleanliness Departnt for a chat, Poliana publicly stated: "They took him away too late!"
A person like him should’ve been removed long ago, and the fact that the Cleanliness Departnt acted only now just shows they’re not entirely blind.
As a B-level warrior holding a high position in the governnt, she definitely knew that the Cleanliness Departnt’s principle of action was having no principles.
So her statent at the ti was essentially adding insult to injury.
However, in truth, Poliana usually didn’t act so conspicuously.
To most people, her statent seed impulsive, which made Rol resentful, prompting him to send soone to humiliate her.
But those from the Ye Family knew well that Poliana spoke because they asked her to.
She already couldn’t stand Rol, so it was quite natural to take advantage of the opportunity when soone asked her to speak.
However, the Ye Family found themselves in a headache: the people they asked went even further than Poliana!
Yet Rol chose her as the first target for revenge!
On the surface, no one would think the Ye Family and Poliana were deeply connected.
The two barely had any links, just having crossed paths and acknowledged each other in passing.
And that’s truly the case, if the Ye Family’s target wasn’t Rol, it’d be almost impossible to enlist Poliana.
But Rol’s counterattack picked her as the breakthrough point, which certainly had an odd flavor.
Poliana used to mock Rol frequently, yet people like her weren’t rare in the officialdom.
Thus, so people didn’t quite understand, why choose her for revenge?
Not only is she large in stature, but it’s also easy to arouse collective indignation within the officialdom.
However, since the Ye Family were directly involved in this affair, they naturally had a different understanding.
They noticed Poliana being targeted and instantly realized: "This is targeting our Ye Family!"
Rol had already confird that Poliana was assisting the Ye Family in striking hard!
How did the news leak? Now, that question isn’t very important!
What’s important is that Rol obscurely hinted that his priority target is the people backing Poliana!
So, you dare not directly target the foreign community?
However, to say he absolutely doesn’t dare, isn’t necessarily the case, since those three foreigners, besides being female, are also B-level.
So selecting Poliana as the adversary might also serve as a demonstration.
Then the Ye Family notified Zi Jiu Immortal that there’s more than ets the eye in Rol’s choice of targets.
They weren’t necessarily seeking help because the Ye Family wasn’t devoid of foundation themselves.
Moreover, while Poliana’s influence might be sowhat thin, she wasn’t without friends and relatives.
The Ye Family just hoped the foreigners would pay more attention to their safety because Rol has beco quite deranged.
A normal person wouldn’t consider targeting foreigners specifically, but a madman is an exception.
Upon receiving the news, Zi Jiu Immortal went to find Qu Jianlei: "This is purely the situation where the tree wishes for quiet, but the wind will not subside!"
Qu Jianlei listened to the news without expression and said, "Understood...just waiting around is no solution either."
