Chapter 389 -73 The Effects of Divine Authority (Two-in-One)
Before the gates of Liu Mansion.
Power?
Justice?
Hearing these words, Jiang Ning shook his head and chuckled to himself.
Since when did he become synonymous with “power”?

To Jiang Ning, the justice Liu Zhaonan spoke of was nothing but a joke.
Such words had no right to come from Liu Zhaonan’s mouth.
The Liu family had come to this point by committing countless atrocities from top to bottom.
God only knows how many homes they’ve destroyed, how many people they’ve pushed to ruin, and how many common folks they’ve exploited.
Considering the problems they’ve caused over the years, it’s been more than enough to claim the lives of thousands.
Not to mention the influence of the Black Tiger Gang in recent years.
A life for a life, but they are far from squaring their debts.
Though Jiang Ning lacked the lofty aspiration to dedicate his life to saving others, at this point, he could no longer turn a blind eye.
The next moment,
Jiang Ning said to Xie Xiaojiu and Feng Jiuge, “Take your men inside, assist the county constables in arresting people; deal with any resisters on the spot.”
“Yes, sir!”
“Yes, sir!”
Both replied at once.
At this time,
Xu Zhengnan quietly moved half a step closer to Jiang Ning’s side.
After Xie Xiaojiu and Feng Jiuge entered the Liu Mansion, and Hong Minghu and Ye Qiu were long gone, Xu Zhengnan suddenly whispered into Jiang Ning’s ear,
“Commander Jiang, to stop the weeds you must pull out the roots, shall I make a move?”
Hearing this, Jiang Ning glanced at Xu Zhengnan.
Xu Zhengnan immediately broke into a hearty laugh and then lowered his voice,
“Commander Jiang, the night is long and full of dreams! If something unexpected happens, such deep hatred could cause trouble later.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning looked at Xu Zhengnan and then nodded slightly.
Seeing Jiang Ning’s expression, Xu Zhengnan’s face broke into a smile.
Then, he gestured to someone nearby with a wave of his hand.
As that person approached, he bowed his head to listen to Xu Zhengnan’s instructions, nodding repeatedly.
A short while later,
Xu Zhengnan gestured, “Go on!”
“Yes, sir!” the man replied and then stepped into the Liu Mansion.
As the man entered, it only took a moment before a loud shout resounded from the courtyard, “Dare to resist!”
Then the sound of weapons clashing and the cries of brutal combat followed.
“Not good!” Xu Zhengnan’s expression changed.
“Commander Jiang, I’m going to suppress the uprising in the Liu Mansion!” Leaving this message behind, Xu Zhengnan stomped on the ground, soaring through the air like a hawk, over the gate, and into the mansion.
At this time,
Jiang Ning cast a casual glance at Liu Zhaonan. Despite being powerless and under the watch of arrest officers, Liu Zhaonan’s eyes were filled with intense hatred toward Jiang Ning.
“Xu Zhengnan is right; to stop the weeds you must pull out the roots. Such people will only bring trouble if left alive,” Jiang Ning murmured to himself.
The next moment,
he walked toward the interior of the Liu Mansion.
As he crossed the threshold, Liu Zhaonan’s gaze began to fade, and his eyes dimmed.
…
Liu Mansion.
Flames were rising everywhere, and chaos reigned.
The sounds of battle and the clashing of weapons were incessant.
Clearly, there were many who resisted inside the mansion.
And according to the order to show no mercy to the resisters, these people could all be executed on the spot.
Jiang Ning quickly closed his eyes.
The Spiritual Field spread out instantly.
With closed eyes, concentration could be enhanced, leading to a slightly stronger intensity in the Spiritual Field.
Using the Spiritual Field to observe, Jiang Ning quickly located the powerful Tributors in the Liu Mansion,
especially the Great Tributor, who was now fiercely battling with Xu Zhengnan.
It was clear that Xu Zhengnan could not defeat the Great Tributor in just a few moments.
But at that moment,
the Great Tributor suddenly staggered during the clash with Xu Zhengnan, his figure wavered, and his eyes became vacant as if he had suddenly become confused.
Xu Zhengnan’s eyes focused sharply, like an eagle’s.
His hand swooped down like a hooked claw toward the Great Tributor’s head.
“Ah—”
With a pained cry, the skull of the Great Tributor was lifted by Xu Zhengnan, exposing the fresh brain to the air.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Zhengnan crushed his throat bone, ending his life.
After taking care of the Great Tributor, jiang Ning turned and left.
From his observation,
Liu Mansion’s personnel had totally lost their ability to resist.
With the Great Tributor’s death, the rest stood no chance against Feng Jiuge and Xie Xiaojiu, among others.
Not to mention Xu Zhengnan was there.
Jiang Ning had seen how deep Xu Zhengnan’s thoughts could be. Allowing Xu Zhengnan to take charge here would ensure a cleanup that was even more thorough than if Jiang Ning personally handled it.
…
That night,
Jiang Ning left the Moon Pavilion.
The cold wind blew away the slight drunkenness, making him fully alert.
Recalling the events that had just occurred in the Moon Pavilion, Jiang Ning shook his head.
“Indeed, the most important thing is strength!”
Immediately, he thought of the Golden Box in his Sumeru Ring, and the Divinity and Authority he had extracted from the statue during the day; his heart suddenly became eager, and he quickened his pace to go home.
As for the merits achieved today and the Contribution Points he deserved, he was not in a hurry.
He would simply visit the Inspection Office tomorrow, and distribute the rewards to his subordinates.
He was aware that those under him were much poorer compared to those under the Deputy Commander.
Because his people had not done those conscience-betraying acts, they had not treated ordinary people tainted by the Evil God’s influence as members of the God Worship Sect to claim rewards.
…
After Jiang Ning left the Moon Pavilion,
Hong Minghu and Ye Qiu exchanged glances and lightly clinked their cups together.
