Number One Dungeon Supplier

Chapter 479 Cutthroat System

"WHAT?! Pull out?! Sir, you can't be serious! All we need is just your permission to enter the fray, and we can go in guns blazing!!! We have multiple civilians as witnesses claiming that they killed at least one officer! You saw that smoke cloud coming from afar. That is also on them! Why can't we enter and help?" Xue Ping refused to accept this order from her superior as she was fully decked out in combat gear, itching to go in and help the remaining innocents.

"That is not your prerogative nor mine. Those are direct orders from the Central Police HQ (Shenzhen's)" Tiangong Police Captain, Mao Pai Huo instructed Xue Ping to stand down along with her fellow husband, Lee An.

"But Sir! There are innocents inside! Stuck there! We all know that the Central Police Superintendents are being bribed and coerced to not interfere with the fight! You yourself saw how De Tian's entourage crashed through our police checkpoint to enter the Shopping District. The people there need our help!" Lee Ann reinforced his message to Captain Mao.

"BUT CAN WE DO ANYTHING IN OUR CURRENT STATE?!" Captain Mao slammed his chi infused fist on the police car's bonnet, causing a visible indentation. "You all experienced first hand how strong Wo De Tian was and we are nowhere near his level. Guns are useless if you are unable to even pull the trigger. Do you think I don't want to go in and help them?" Captain Mao retorted in a stern voice.

"You two may be capable detectives, but I am the one shouldering the responsibility of the entire fate of Tiangong station police force. Have you considered the consequences of such actions for a moment? How it may be selfish of you to drag the lives of these policemen into an undefeatable battle?!" The investigators could see that Captain Mao was holding back the rest of his anger so much that he was trembling.

"Then, Sir. Let me go in instead." A fellow in a brown jacket and a cap entered the conversation followed by two other veteran policemen.

"Ren Wei?!" Captain Mao was shocked to see one of the best police snipers in Shenzhen in his precinct. "What are you doing here?"

"Just a coincidence, my daughter and I initially wanted to visit the dungeon supplier today but looks like if we do not close this up soon, there might be no dungeon supplier to enter." Ren Wei answered as entered through the checkpoint without any interference from the other policemen and he was not taking any answers from Captain Mao.

"Bro, What about me and Gupta?!" Abdul shouted out as his buddy left them out. Ren Wei just smiled at them and jumped over the barricade. The policemen who were guarding the barriers were in a dilemma whether to chase after Ren Wei.

It was then Gupta realised what it was going and sent a private transmission message. Abdul heaved out a heavy breath and held onto to the policemen shoulders. "Sir! Sergeant Ren Wei may be from the Central Police Headquarters, but he did not make his intentions clear. Permission to enter the scene and chase after him for the clarification!" Gupta stood in attention in front of Captain Mao, and the rest immediately understood his intentions.

"Fine! You and Gupta enter and bring him back as soon as possible. You hear me? In one piece too! I do not want his daughter to be orphaned." Captain Mao ordered.

"Sir, his daughter is already in university…same age as your boy." Abdul said, and the others including the detectives, could not help but sniggered a bit.

"…WHAT are you waiting for?! Go chase after him!" Captain Mao embarrassingly looked the other way as he waved his hands off to the two policemen. They saluted, and the other police guards happily opened the barrier for them to pass through.

"Sir. Thank you." Xue Ping whispered as she empathised the Captain's situation.

"What? I am just doing my job. Now the rest of you make goddamn sure those reporter vultures do not come anywhere near the site." Captain Mao ordered his men to reinforce the barriers.

"I suggest you surrender to me." De Tian demanded as he portrayed his cultivation by releasing his chi aura to the surrounding areas. The Ruby Rats, upon feeling the densely concentrated aura within the vicinity, knew better and immediately surrendered themselves to the ground instead of trying to resist it.

In fact, it was too suffocating to even tolerate the dense chi that was being emitted. Even Chen Xun, the Triad Boss for the Deranged Dogs had to emit his own chi to counterbalance against the overly burdensome aura to maintain his balance.

"For his aura to reach up to my gang lackeys at the far end... seeing them squirm might not be that bad once in a while." Chen Xun thought as he saw them struggling their hardest in an attempt to escape from the aura. Those farthest out still had the strength to crawl out of the area as far as they could, not that it helped them much. For those nearest to De Tian, they were too weak to move a single muscle. His strength was undeniable.

The other Triad Bosses pretended to act strong against him, but whenever De Tian asked them for something they would always eventually concede or compromise to his terms because of his cultivation grade. However, the only who seemed unaffected by the aura was the opponent he was here to crush.

Jin, the Dungeon Supplier.

"Haven't you showed off enough yet? Can't you see your followers are suffering?" Jin shouted with his hands folded.

"Looks like I underestimated you a little. I've to admit you intrigue me a bit, but unfortunately for you, you managed to anger me quite a bit." De Tian replied as he threw the cigarette butt towards Jin's direction. He stopped releasing his chi aura, and the gang lackeys were finally able to take a breather. However, not all were so lucky. Those too close and too weak to handle the pressure had died from it.

"I've done nothing to you at all. Heck up until today, I haven't even met you. From my perspective, you are the one that is actively hurting the people around me. You are the one that has decided for yourself to consider me a threat that should be eliminated. Do not blame others for your own problems. If you cannot handle losses, then quit your job." Jin accused, not even caring for the butt which was thrown at him. He considered it beneath him to get out of the way only because De Tian wanted it.

"Seems that despite being a you are not as useless or lazy. You seem to have quite the bite. Perhaps that's why the Tigers seem to have taken a liking to you. Let's get down to business." De Tian said as he renewed his cigarette.

"Seeing as how you have me surrounded, I doubt your conditions will be any more appealing than this situation, but I am willing to listen," Jin replied as he continued to stand ready with his Head staff.

"It's easy. Join me, give me your dungeon supplier technology as well as those portal technology patent rights. In turn, you will get out scotfree, and I will make you into a very rich man." De Tian offered.

"Sounds not as detrimental as I thought, but what if I were to decline?" Jin questioned with a firm tone.

"I am a very generous in nature, so I shall present you with two other choices. Your second option is that I let you live, but cripple your cultivation. After you hand over what I want we will allow those you protected to get out unharmed and you will begin your new life as my slave. You should make a perfect cigarette ashtray."

"Of course, we can always go with the initial plan and turn this day into your death anniversary. You can be assured that your miniscule land and property will be in good hands afterwards. " De Tian announced, and the rest of the Ruby Rats chuckled at the choices.

"How about I give you a better suggestion?" Jin asked with a grin as he suddenly walked sidewards while tapping his staff on his shoulder.

"What? Don't tell me you are one of those with some sort of superhero complex? Do you seriously think you have a chance at killing me? There are three other Triad bosses with me. Not even that old hag Yuan, would stand a chance." De Tian laughed at that prospect.

"Hahaha, I advise you to be reasonable. You should accept the first choice before De Tian changes his mind." Chen Xun chimed in. "Even if you managed to defeat all four of us. There is the matter of revenge by the entire four gangs. You know we can be a very tight knitted family in cases of revenge. Especially if it concerns our good reputation."

"I wouldn't dream of it. We all know that with your influence, even if it would count as self defense, all of you are important enough to get resurrected and come back to haunt me. Killing you in someone else's territory would be useless. Still, you might wanna take a look at this before you decide on what do to next." Jin typed something on his phone and then threw his phone towards De Tian. He caught it with ease and looked at the contents, which made him feel like crashing the phone.

"How…? How??? WHAT DID YOU DO?! This has to be a bluff!" De Tian shouted back with anger, but before he could crash the phone, Peppers performed her favourite (party) trick of exploding the phone right out of De Tian's hands.

The other Ruby Rats immediately took out their weapons out as the phone flew back into Jin's hand. "You saw correctly. Either you get out of here, or I will happily enact the laws! That blast was just a warning shot. I can do far worse!" Jin shouted, and De Tian used his hand to move the smoke away. He did not get out of the explosion unscathed, and Chen Xun was ready to enter the fray, but De Tian stopped him.

"What? What's wrong? Aren't we supposed to finish him before that Guardian hag arrives?" Chen Xun shouted at De Tian. He was eager to get this over with. If possible, he would rather avoid fighting Grandma Yuan.

"He bought the friggin place. The entire goddamned Shopping District." De Tian uttered with disbelief as well.

"Well, if you do not believe. Feel free to consult my lawyer. I assume you know Xiong Da from the HHH Law Firm." Jin shook his shoulders while giving a smirked face back.

"But you said that the place is only up for grabs starting next year onwards!" Chen Xun retaliated back, and the news made the other two bosses in the car to chatter as well.

"That should be the case. Unless…he has the money to buy it prematurely." Tang Wei spoke out from the window. "With the new Building Law that was placed two years ago, the tenants of the district have the right to purchase it one year before the development lease on the place has been expired at 1.5 times the amount the land was valued."

"What bullshit! It already costs at millions of Yuan to buy at the normal rate. How would he have the money to buy it out beforehand. He is just a Dungeon Supplier!" Chen Xun cursed, and Jin's lip curled.

"IT IS BECAUSE I AM A DUNGEON SUPPLIER!" Jin shouted back at them. "So what are you going to do? You know what is going to happen if you fight in someone's own territory, right?" He eyed at De Tian intently.

"…the rules he set within his own territory cannot be overruled in court, and whatever casualties inflicted may not be a cause of revenge. If he manages to kill us, he may even legally get rid of our Dantians in his territory." Tang Wei spoke out, and Chen Xun banged the car's side door.

"This has to be bluff. De Tian. It's impossible for that to be the case!" Chen Xun could not believe this brat in front of him would have the financial capability to perform such a deed. More importantly, how did he found out that they were eyeing for this land…unless it was the source was from another Triad.

The Three Eyes Tigers.

"You know, I'm happy to wait here. You can get your secretary to verify...

No, better yet. Get all your secretaries, my dear Triad Bosses and check with them that I had already procured the land. Also, expect me to send you the check for the repairs for all the damage you have inflicted on my turf." Jin proclaimed with utmost confidence even though internally he was sweating like mad.

There was a break in the discussion as all the Triad Bosses were indeed double checking the facts. Jin saw their faces when they received the confirmations by their secretaries, and it was indeed priceless. "System has taken a picture of all their shocked faces as it believed User would appreciate having a memento." The System notified him.

"System, you know me, oh so well." Jin widened his smiles at the side of his mouth. He could not have done this feat without the System.

The devious, ruthless cutthroat of a System.
