Tang Zheng glanced at Number One and Number Three, completely unconcerned. He had no ill intentions towards the Bureau Chief, so why should he be afraid of them?
The Bureau Chief's face darkened as he looked at Tang Zheng sternly and said, "Do you know what you've done?"
Tang Zheng calmly accepted it and lightly said: "Could it be that you think that I was the one who started all of this?"
The Bureau Chief was slightly startled. He didn't expect Tang Zheng to dare to refute him. This was a challenge to his authority. In that instant, his gaze became extremely sharp.
The atmosphere in the study changed. Number One, Two, and Three all tensed up, as if they would take down Tang Zheng as soon as the Bureau Chief gave the order.
The Bureau Chief didn't give the order in the end. He only stared at Tang Zheng sternly, as if trying to see through his thoughts.
Tang Zheng was like a big ball of cotton, causing all the power he released to disappear. He helplessly snorted angrily and said, "What's with that roar?"
Obviously, compared to other things, that dragon's roar was what he was most concerned about.
Tang Zheng shook his head as usual and pretended not to know. He said, "I don't know. I guess it's the sound of some monster."
"Hmph, monster, what monster?" The Bureau Chief asked, unwilling to give up.
Tang Zheng shrugged and said, "There are millions of monsters in the world. How can I recognize all of them? Moreover, it's just a sound, so I can't tell."
The Bureau Chief looked at him suspiciously and suddenly said, "Someone said it's a dragon's roar. What do you think?"
Tang Zheng raised his eyebrows and pretended to be surprised. He asked, "Dragon's roar? Are there really dragons in this world? "
He didn't seem to have any flaws, as if it was really the first time he heard of such a judgment.
But his heart was beating like a drum. To be able to judge that it was a dragon's roar with just a roar, it seemed that the officials had many talents and guessed correctly.
Number Two also asked in surprise, "It's really a dragon's roar?"
Obviously, it was also his first time hearing of such a judgment. Number One and Number Three obviously knew about this beforehand. They glared at Number Two fiercely, indicating for him to keep quiet.
After Number Two's interruption, the Bureau Chief's aura weakened a little, but he still persisted in asking, "You don't think it's the Dragon Roar?"
"How would I know?" Tang Zheng shook his head without hesitation. "Could it be that dragons really exist in this world?"
The Bureau Chief didn't find any flaws and couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. Tang Zheng was like an airtight wall. No matter how strong the wind was, it couldn't penetrate through.
Tang Zheng did not give up and asked, "If there really are dragons in this world, it would be a huge discovery."
"Dragons are real." The Bureau Chief continued, "This is clearly recorded in ancient documents, but it's very confidential and not known to outsiders."
Tang Zheng pretended to be enlightened. "I see."
"That dragon roar came from the palace. Don't tell me you didn't discover anything else?"
Tang Zheng shook his head. "At that time, all I cared about was avoiding the explosion. I didn't even have time to run for my life. How could I have the time to care about other things?"
The Bureau Chief nodded to himself. That kind of powerful explosion was indeed too dangerous. What Tang Zheng said was not unreasonable.
"Then how did you manage to escape?"
"Didn't I already say? Cultivators have their own life-saving methods. "
"I'm very curious, so I want to listen and broaden my horizons."
Tang Zheng's expression turned cold. "I'm afraid I can't comply. If my life-saving methods are made public, how can I survive in the future?"
"Not saying? Could it be that you want to go against us and are afraid that we will use this method to deal with you? "
Tang Zheng was stunned. This question was not easy to answer. The other party was obviously testing him. Since he had chosen to be tough, he couldn't compromise midway. Otherwise, he would be forced into a dead end by the other party.
Tang Zheng smiled faintly. "Why would I go against you? However, in this world, one must always be vigilant against others. Moreover, there are too many people, and it's hard to avoid leaks. So, forgive me for not being able to comply. "
The other three instantly stared at Tang Zheng with unfriendly expressions, as if they couldn't wait to attack immediately. However, the Bureau Chief calmed down. He had already tested Tang Zheng's bottom line, so he didn't dare to take another step.
Don't dare?
When he thought of this word, he couldn't help but find it funny and sad. He was a superior above millions of people, but he had to care about the feelings of a young man. It was really ridiculous.
Although he was helpless, he had to admit that this was the truth.
Tang Zheng saw the intention to retreat from the Bureau Chief's eyes, and a trace of joy flashed through his heart. It seemed that his tenacious persistence was fruitful.
"I heard that you don't intend to bury the hatchet with the Rockefeller family?" The Bureau Chief changed the question.
Tang Zheng sneered. "Bury the hatchet, do you think it's possible?"
"Why not? The Rockefeller family is a big family and knows how to weigh the pros and cons. As long as we come forward to mediate, they will definitely take a step back. There's no need to fight to the death. Young man, take a step back and you'll have a better view. "
Tang Zheng shook his head without hesitation. "It's none of my business. The Rockefeller family is not targeting you, so of course you can say that. Not only does he want to kill me, but he also wants to harm the people around me. This is my reverse scale. If anyone dares to touch it, I will definitely deal with him to the end and not let him have an easy time. "
After a slight pause, he emphasized his tone and repeated, "Anyone!"
Of course, this "anyone" was not limited to the Rockefeller family, but also included other people. The people in front of him were no exception.
This was a resolute expression of his attitude. This kind of behavior was undoubtedly very provocative, especially for such a person with such a high position and power.
The Bureau Chief's face changed instantly. It became gloomier and more serious. His sharp gaze was like a knife, about to pierce through Tang Zheng.
But Tang Zheng did not retreat at all. After experiencing the Rockefeller family incident, he became cautious and wanted to strangle all possible dangers in the cradle.
It didn't matter if they dealt with him, but if they dared to target the people around him, then he would definitely be angrier and fight to the death with them.
The Bureau Chief understood the deep meaning in Tang Zheng's words. That was why he was so angry. He was threatening him to his face.
He really wanted to flare up and have someone arrest Tang Zheng, but after all, he was not a three-year-old child. He was very good at weighing the pros and cons.
At this moment, having an enemy like Tang Zheng was definitely not a good thing for him.
So, he took a few deep breaths and finally suppressed the anger in his heart. He looked at Tang Zheng and said, "Rockefeller is not so easy to deal with. If you cause such a big disturbance again, then I won't sit back and do nothing."
"That's not up to me. You know what kind of people the Rockefeller family is. Bats, werewolves, these guys will definitely cause panic when they appear in public. This is not something I can control. Actually, I have a very good suggestion. You find Rockefeller's people, and then I'll deal with them myself. It's better for everyone to end this matter early. “
Although Tang Zheng knew Rockefeller's hiding place from Li Xiaotian's mind, with such a big commotion in the Imperial City this time, Rockefeller was not stupid. He must have moved long ago.
If there was official assistance, it would definitely be twice the result with half the effort. These people who were hiding their heads and tails would definitely not be able to escape.
However, the Bureau Chief shook his head firmly. "No."
Even though Tang Zheng felt a bit regretful, there was nothing he could do. He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then I will dig three feet into the ground to find them. However, if the commotion is too big, then don't blame me."
"Impudent!" Number One suddenly shouted, his eyes glaring angrily.
The corners of Tang Zheng's mouth curled up in a cold smile. He met Number One's eyes and said, "What do you want?"
"Tang Zheng, are you still from Hua Xia? How dare you be so rude to the Bureau Chief! "Number One scolded.
Tang Zheng laughed loudly. "If I'm not from Hua Xia, why would I be standing here? Hmph, when my life and the lives of my family were threatened, where were you? Now you're here to question whether I'm from Hua Xia. What right do you have? Or, let me ask you bluntly, who do you think you are? "
This attitude was undoubtedly arrogant to the extreme, as if he was scolding the locust tree. But what he said was not without reason.
Tang Zheng was a young man, so he had the hot-bloodedness of a young man. If he acted like an old and wise person in everything, then there would be a problem.
Tang Zheng had experienced so many big and small battles, so the hot-bloodedness in his bones was very strong. It was just that he had been deliberately suppressing it.
Now that it was stimulated by Number One's questioning, the atmosphere became very tense, as if both sides could start fighting at any time.
Number One's face turned red from the questioning, and he muttered, "The country has its own considerations. How can you sacrifice the interests of the whole for your own personal interests?"
"I don't care about the interests of the whole, I only care about myself. Only when I'm not threatened can I care about others. Moreover, without an individual, how can there be a whole?"
Tang Zheng was very eloquent and was not something a martial artist like Number One could compare to. For a moment, Number One was refuted until he was speechless.
The Bureau Chief's expression was uncertain, and he kept staring at Tang Zheng. Seeing Tang Zheng's hot-bloodedness, he was not surprised. The so-called hot-bloodedness, to him, was just the impulsiveness of a young and ignorant person.
If a young man was too mature and wise, and too shrewd, this was what he was most afraid of. Looking at the impulsive Tang Zheng, he felt a sense of relief.
Young people.
There was a limit to their shrewdness, so they were easy to deal with!
For a moment, he could not help but feel relieved. He threw this conflict to the back of his mind and waved his hand, indicating that the two of them should stop talking.
After this incident, he believed Tang Zheng's words a little more. After all, the dragon was a legendary existence. How could Tang Zheng have the ability to meet a dragon?
Moreover, if he really met a dragon, could he still survive?
Dragons were noble and mysterious, but it was said that they were violent by nature. Tang Zheng did not have the ability to make a dragon treat him differently.
After thinking through all this, the Bureau Chief's expression turned from dark to bright, and a smile appeared on his lips. He softened his tone and said, "After all, Rockefeller is closely related to the Atlantic Empire. The government will not step in. This will cause more conflict. As for you, we can't do anything about it."
