Chapter 1087: Chapter 953: Good or Evil

Tanguli sat at a small roadside stall, sipping a drink by himself, his gaze somewhat distant.

These types of roadside stalls are common on Qingsha Star, although they are not necessarily low-end, they are certainly not high-end either.

Less than eight hundred meters away was his ”Jingxin Tea House,” which wasn’t particularly upscale either, but at least it had a yard.

As the owner of the tea house, he would certainly find it more peaceful to drink in his own yard.

Yet he simply preferred to sip at the small stall; after all, the tea house was being looked after, and he had no reason to worry.

He took another sip of his drink and let out a long sigh, feeling the weight of age as nostalgia set in.

No one knew why he preferred to drink alone at the small stall.

Only he understood, that many years ago, it was at a place like this that he met the benefactor of his destiny.

That year, his wife was pregnant with their first child and was suddenly in a car accident, the treatment costs were astronomical.

At that time, he hadn’t been in the City Guard for long, and he had borrowed all the money he could, but it was to no avail.

Watching as a tragic end seemed inevitable, he was sitting at a small stall trying to drown his sorrows, when his benefactor appeared.

Tanguli thought Kong Se saw potential in him within the City Guard and expressed willingness to cooperate.

But considering the stature of a Lord, why would he care about repayment from a small C-level person?

Later, the area Tanguli was in charge of was worlds apart from the territory Kong Se operated in, and there was no way to repay him.

So he just repaid the money on schedule, but when the debt was fully paid, he made a point to deliver a small gift.

Later, when he was about to advance to B-level, he encountered a major case, which he strongly suspected was the work of competitors.

None of that mattered now though; the short of it was, he unexpectedly lost a leg.

Then he took early retirement with some disability compensation and periodic subsidies, but not a lot of money.

Originally, he didn’t want to seek further help from Lord Kong Se—the prosthetic provided by the City Guard was decent enough.

No one is innately indebted to you, especially such a significant figure.

But he soon found that the prosthetic was ultimately inadequate, yet he didn’t feel comfortable going to see him.

However, somehow, Kong Se heard about it and directly arranged for him to undergo limb regeneration treatment.

Profound gratitude goes unspoken, and a few years ago, when the Lord encountered trouble, Tanguli took the initiative to visit—What can I do?

Kong Se immediately refused, in a very determined manner—You’re too small, just hearing you speak these words is reassuring enough.

Tanguli knew well that the image of the Lord in people’s eyes was not entirely positive.

But the Kong Se he encountered was warm and generous; as a beneficiary, he wouldn’t consider other people’s opinions.

After the Lord’s entire family was eradicated, some people came to investigate him.

But after all those years in the City Guard, unless he admitted, others couldn’t do anything about him.

Besides, he didn’t have much contact with the Lord, nor had he done anything significant for him.

As for having visited twice... that’s nothing unusual, considering the Lord’s influence and local prominence, many people visited.

Thinking about how someone avenged Kong Se not long ago, only to suddenly disappear afterward, Tanguli couldn’t help but sigh again.

What a pity, the guilty have not all been punished!

He was letting his thoughts run wild when suddenly, a shadow appeared in front of him, silently watching him.

”Not too drunk, are you?” Tanguli rubbed his eyes, realizing there was indeed a woman standing in front of him.

He stared at the individual for a full five seconds, then averted his gaze, ”You’re blocking my view of the night scenery.”

The woman softly spoke, ”I just came from Koning Supreme’s mansion.”

”Hmm?” Tanguli instantly sobered up, Koning... you dare address the Supreme by name?

Then he instinctively looked around and spoke softly, ”I don’t think I know you.”

The woman answered quietly again, ”We’ve met before; if I’m not interrupting, I’d like to consult you on something.”

After speaking, she turned and walked towards a large tree not far away.

Tanguli hesitated for a moment, then slowly stood up to settle the bill and, seeming casual, walked towards that tree.

The woman didn’t stay long under the tree; as she saw him rise and come over, she continued walking to the other end of the street.

Tanguli wandered aimlessly, occasionally stopping, while he kept a distance, following the woman.

The woman entered a park by the roadside, and before long, Tanguli followed her inside.

Seeing the woman sitting on a bench next to the bushes, he walked over and sat down on the other end of the bench.

He casually looked around and asked softly, ”Where have we met?”

The woman turned her head, her appearance had changed significantly, ”No impression at all?”

Tanguli also turned his head and, in the next moment, was frozen as if struck by a Body Fixing Skill.

He was stunned for about seven to eight seconds before he spoke incredulously, ”Are you... Yingying?”

”It’s me,” Celestial Sound nodded, ”Long time no see; thank you for visiting my uncle during his toughest times.”

Tanguli paused for a long while before slowly shaking his head and letting out a sigh.

”Alas, don’t mention it, in the end, my strength is low, I can’t help the Lord much.”

He paused for a moment before speaking again, ”Was that affair with Wan Hao related to you?”

Celestial Sound answered calmly, ”My boss and a few seniors did it, the Qian Cengxue family was slaughtered by me.”

”The Qian Cengxue family?” Tan Guli was somewhat in a daze; he had heard about the massacre on Sharp Claw Star.

Once the Supreme dies, the family gets slaughtered... This is the Imperial society.

He had worked at the City Guard for many years and had never encountered such a case, but he’d heard of too many.

He had no intention of commenting on Yingying’s actions, the Lord’s family was gone too, even if the whole process wasn’t as bloody as the Qian Cengxue family.

As a family member of the victim, they have the right to make corresponding retaliations, a bit excessive... that’s their choice.

Tan Guli just expressed blankly, ”Actually... there are still those who deserve to be killed.”

Celestial Sound nodded, ”That’s right, I came to you this time to find out who’s still missing.”

Tan Guli turned his head to look at her, stared for three or four seconds before speaking, ”The Lord’s title...”

”I’m really sorry about that,” Celestial Sound sighed softly, ”I’m just a niece.”

If it were possible, she would certainly want the title to be inherited, she knew well how much her uncle cared about this title.

But it’s really impossible, even if Lord Kong Se were still alive and willing to pass the title to her, it would be difficult to easily inherit it.

After all, she’s just a niece, from the standpoint of the Imperial law, theoretically, it doesn’t support such an inheritance.

”Then...” Tan Guli slowly uttered two words, his voice somewhat desolate and heavy.

After a while, he asked again, ”Will you not return to take over the Lord’s estate?”

”The mines must be reclaimed,” Celestial Sound answered indifferently, ”To be worthy of my uncle... but in the name of Koning.”

Lord Kong Se died for this, it didn’t matter to her to give the profits to the team, her uncle’s family had no descendants left, she had the right to dispose of it.

But in any case, it cannot fall cheap to outsiders!

Koning! Tan Guli heard the name again, sighed lightly, had the Lord’s niece grown so strong?

”So, in dealing with those who slipped through the net, can you do whatever it takes?”

”That’s right,” Celestial Sound nodded, feeling a bit helpless inside.

Originally, she planned to wait until her advancement to A-level to personally trouble those people, she didn’t want to trouble her boss too much.

But with Hillary Supreme’s move, to deter the petty ones, the revenge plan had to be advanced.

”That’s good,” Tan Guli’s voice became somewhat relaxed, ”Just as well... I did a thorough investigation.”

Then he stood up, ”I didn’t dare to keep the material at home, it’s hidden at the tea house, I’ll go get it now.”

Celestial Sound watched him leave, whispered, ”Thank you.”

Tan Guli’s footsteps paused, helplessly forced a bitter smile, ”All I can do is this... do you need help?”

”No need,” Celestial Sound replied softly, ”Having the relevant material, I’m already very grateful. You have family and children.”

Tan Guli shook his head and continued to step out, with a long sigh in his heart.

Yingying is so young, she could have had such a bright future, but was forced down a path of no return, damn this society!

In no time, he returned and handed over a storage device, ”It’s all on there.”

Celestial Sound expressed gratitude again, then said, ”...hurry back, don’t go out casually in the near future.”

Tan Guli was a bit stunned, then shook his head with a bitter smile, ”I feel so useless!”

As he was about to turn and leave, a voice came, ”Wait, could he oversee the future mine?”

Celestial Sound was stunned for a moment before speaking, ”Uncle Tan, my boss is asking you.”

”Oversee... boss?” Tan Guli was also stunned for a moment, then carefully asked, ”Can I?”

”I don’t have trusted people at hand either,” Celestial Sound nodded, ”It’s a good job, and the danger is small.”

After all is said, the team truly lacks people, besides, ”Those with goodwill should be rewarded.”

”You don’t move for now, wait until we finish the matter, I’ll contact Koning Supreme.”

Tan Guli did not expect that the materials he submitted would lead Qingsha Star into a storm of blood.

The next day, Qu Jianlei and others spent the whole day verifying the material.

During the verification process, they found that after Kong Se fell, there were indeed too many who grew fat and full.

Still, Tan Guli excluded many people and forces with relatively usual methods.

Seven or eight months ago, three Supremes of Wan Hao were killed, and many of those who had wronged the Lord or took the opportunity to enrich themselves went into hiding.

Months later, they found nothing happened, so they reappeared.

Now Koning is integrating resources, trying to take over the mines, yet there are people secretly making trouble in the procedures again.

Paranoid flipped through some of the materials, couldn’t help but feel, ”These people... deserve to have their entire family killed!”

Celestial Sound nodded, spoke coldly, ”I think so too.”
