Chapter 813: Threatening When You Can't Win
The man's words were full of threatening tone, and he even brought up Yang Haoran's superior.
His words were not hard to understand. If Yang Haoran didn't cooperate, he would report the matter to his superior, and Yang Haoran's superior would take care of him.
Yang Haoran had long expected the other party to use this to threaten him, so he didn't feel surprised at all.
"My friend, although she is a demon, is also a Spirit Police officer. Her contributions to Lecheng are evident to all. You demon hunters want to eliminate demons, I can understand, but you can't be indiscriminate. There are good people and bad people, and demons are the same. It's clear that my friend is a good demon. If you really want to kill her, it's not about eliminating evil, but about depriving Lecheng of a guardian. This is something not only I won't agree to, but the entire Lecheng population won't agree to either."
Yang Haoran's tone was firm and confident, as if the facts were really as he said.
The man's eyebrows furrowed, but before he could speak, Yang Haoran cut in again.
"The Administration Director isn't a fool. If my friend were a wicked demon, the Administration Director would have found a way to eliminate her long ago. Why would they keep her until now? After all, before the world was in chaos, our Lecheng Administrative Bureau was under the protection of the Highest Administrative Court, and they had the power to eliminate my friend and intimidate other villains. If the Administration Director didn't do so, it's proof that my friend isn't a wicked demon."
As soon as Yang Haoran finished speaking, the woman coldly rebuked him, her face filled with frost, her eyes revealing a cold killing intent.
"Who are you insulting with your twisted words?"
"Don't get angry, I didn't mean to insult you intentionally. I was just stating a fact, and was interrupted by this lady. Let's continue our previous conversation."
Yang Haoran smiled and said, his calm demeanor making the man's eyebrows furrow even more.
"As the Burial Master of Lecheng, why would I be so close to a serpent demon? I must explain this. My friend, although a serpent demon, is also a devout believer of my god. This can be proven by the Death God pendant around her neck. Is it wrong for me to be close to my god's believer?"
The woman, who was already furious, couldn't help but rebuke again.
"Nonsense, a demon becoming a believer of your Yin Division's Death God? Do you think we're fools?"
Yang Haoran's face was still smiling, his eyes looking at the woman, and then he smiled and said.
"This lady has a strong racial prejudice, but it's understandable. As a demon hunter, you have a strong bias against demons. However, my god doesn't discriminate against race. As long as someone is willing to believe in my god, my god will accept them. So, my god has never rejected demon believers, and our Yin Division has never had a rule that Underworld Envoys can't associate with demons."
Here, Yang Haoran looked at the man and continued to smile.
"This big brother's words, I naturally understand. Even if my superior knew about this, they wouldn't blame me, because I didn't do anything wrong. I'm a person who always follows the rules, and I know the laws of the Yin Division like the back of my hand. Someone like me, who follows the rules, would never do anything to tarnish the reputation of the Yin Division."
Yang Haoran's words were extremely shameless. If he were to be considered someone who follows the rules, then the Death God would probably be furious. After all, he had secretly refined soul pills using souls, and even privately raised ghosts, and had even cultivated his own Ghost Army. If this could be called following the rules, then the Death God would probably be outraged.
Let's talk about the Yin Division's laws. To say that he can recite them like a flowing river is just nonsense. The laws recorded in the Yin Division's iron book, he hasn't even read them thoroughly, he only knows some of them, but not completely. To say that he can recite them like a flowing river is just bragging.
However, bragging is a matter of whether others believe it or not. If others believe it, then it becomes a fact. MyVirtualLibraryEmpire(MVLEMPYR)appreciatesyourreadershipatthesource.
The two demon hunters in front of him, although they have some understanding of Yang Haoran, it's only superficial, and they only know what they've heard from others. They don't know anything deeper.
So, when Yang Haoran speaks, they don't completely believe him, but they still believe most of it, because in their eyes, Yang Haoran doesn't seem like he's lying.
Yang Haoran sees their reactions and remains expressionless, but inside, he's secretly laughing. He then adds another knife to their chest.
"If this big brother needs to find my superior, it's very simple. I just need to contact our divine envoy, and I believe he'll definitely come. You also know that our Yin Division has been in chaos lately, especially in the Jingling Continent. If something big happens here, I believe he won't ignore it. When he comes, you can ask him yourself if our Underworld Envoy has racial discrimination, and if we can contact demons."
Yang Haoran's words immediately make the man's face fall, his eyes narrowing, and a cold, icy glare bursting out.
"Are you threatening me?"
The man's voice is low and menacing, but Yang Haoran just smiles calmly and responds.
"I dare not threaten you two. I'm just stating a fact. As an honest person, I don't like to tell lies, and I don't like to see others tell lies."
Once someone loses their shame, they won't blush no matter what they say, because they've lost their face.
At this moment, Yang Haoran is in such a state, speaking nonsense with a straight face, making it sound like the truth.
"If you're a good person, I'll get struck by lightning and die, stop pretending in front of us!"
The woman coldly scolds Yang Haoran, but he doesn't get angry, instead smiling and responding.
"I'm just saying that I'm honest, not only do I not like to tell lies, but I also can't stand seeing others tell lies. But I didn't say I'm a good person, and I didn't say I'm a bad person. Whether I'm good or bad isn't for me to say, it's for others to evaluate. I can't even control myself, let alone control others."
Yang Haoran smiles and explains, but the woman is furious, wanting to speak again, only to be stopped by her husband.
"We didn't come here to discuss what's good or bad. We just want to take away that serpent demon from you."
The man doesn't want to continue arguing with Yang Haoran, feeling that if he continues, he doesn't know what Yang Haoran will say next. Earlier, he wanted to put pressure on Yang Haoran, making him understand the situation and not interfere, or else he'll get caught up in it too.
But the result is that he's speechless. He not only didn't achieve his goal but was also dominated by Yang Haoran. He's worried that if he continues, he'll become even more passive, so he decides not to beat around the bush and directly states his purpose.
"I almost forgot to say that I'm not only honest but also very loyal. You want to take away my friend from me? That's clearly impossible, unless you step over my dead body."
Yang Haoran's words leave no room for compromise, directly blocking the couple's retreat.
This time, the couple simultaneously erupts with strong killing intent, their powerful star spiritual power bursting out from their bodies.
"You think you're something, wanting to play with us? If it weren't for the Yin Division's face, we wouldn't be wasting our breath on you. Since you're not cooperating, don't blame us for not being polite!"
As the couple's star spiritual power erupts, Master Wu and Bai Xue also burst out with their own power fluctuations, although their power is far inferior to the demon hunters', but they don't show any fear.
"Heh heh, your strength is truly formidable, strong enough to make me feel terrified. But since you're so brazen, I'm sure many people have already sensed it. If I really meet an untimely end, do you think our Yin Division won't know that you did it, and won't take the initiative to find you?"
Yang Haoran doesn't burst out with his own power fluctuations, instead smiling and asking the two demon hunters.
