Chapter 791: Chapter 388: Where is Lin Yuan?

“Li Chang’an, calm down!”

Liu Na’s voice came through the communicator, laced with a hint of urgency.

“I’ve already contacted the Battle Team Alliance. They’ll come and handle this.

You guys need to pull back for now!”

“The Battle Team Alliance?”

Li Chang’an’s brow furrowed.

“Yes, it’s the best option we have right now.”

Liu Na’s tone sounded certain.

“Trust me, the Battle Team Alliance will ensure justice is served.”

Li Chang’an fell silent.

A moment later, he nodded.

“Fine. We’re pulling out.”

He retracted his Saw Chain Sword, turned to Shen Qiuyue and the others, and said, “Let’s go!”

The four of them left the Galaxy Group Headquarters building.

“Manager Zhao, you’re just letting them walk away like that?”

A bodyguard leaned in close to Zhao Qiming and asked in a low voice.

“What else? You want to go head-to-head with them?”

Zhao Qiming snorted coldly.

“Don’t forget, this is Lion’s Fang Star, not Galaxy Group’s home turf.”

“But… the matter of the Second Young Master’s disappearance…”

“Headquarters will send someone to deal with it.”

Zhao Qiming cut the bodyguard off.

“We just need to cooperate.”

…

Back at the Interstellar Warrior Base, Li Chang’an went straight to Liu Na’s office.

“Liu Na, when are the people from the Battle Team Alliance getting here?”

Li Chang’an got straight to the point.

“It should be soon.”

Liu Na said.

“I’ve already given them a detailed report of the situation. They said they’ll send someone as soon as possible.”

“I hope they can provide a just resolution.”

Li Chang’an sighed.

“They will. They definitely will.”

Liu Na comforted him.

“After all, the Battle Team Alliance is an organization that protects the rights of Interstellar Warriors. They won’t just stand by and do nothing.”

“Let’s hope so.”

Li Chang’an still felt uneasy.

‘Galaxy Group’s influence is just too vast.’

‘Whether the Battle Team Alliance can withstand the pressure is still an unknown.’

The wait became excruciatingly long.

Li Chang’an paced back and forth in the office, his mind restless.

Every so often, he would walk to the window and gaze outside.

Shen Qiuyue, Sun Yang, Han Ruoxi, and Bai Lin were also in the office. The atmosphere was oppressive.

Finally, amidst the anxious wait, a ship bearing the Battle Team Alliance emblem landed at the Interstellar Warrior Base.

Li Chang’an and the others immediately went to meet it.

Stepping off the ship was a tall woman with a cold, stern expression.

She wore a crisp Battle Team Alliance uniform, and on her epaulets, three gold stars shone brightly.

“I am Su Wan, Minister of the Battle Team Alliance’s Inspection Department.”

The woman’s voice was frigid, carrying an unquestionable authority.

“Where is Lin Yuan?”

“Minister Su, hello. I am Liu Na, the commander of the 42 Combat Group.”

Liu Na quickly stepped forward, her tone respectful.

“The Battle Commander… he was taken away by people from Galaxy Group.”

“Taken by Galaxy Group?”

Su Wan’s eyebrows knitted together.

“What happened?”

Liu Na gave Su Wan a detailed report, explaining the whole sequence of events.

“Absurd!”

Su Wan rebuked coldly after listening.

“Galaxy Group is completely lawless!”

“Minister Su, I’m begging you, please save our Battle Commander!”

Liu Na was practically pleading.

“Rest assured, I will handle this matter.”

Su Wan’s tone was firm.

“Let’s go. Take me to Galaxy Group!”

“Yes, ma’am!”

Liu Na led Su Wan, along with Li Chang’an and the others, back to the Galaxy Group Headquarters.

…

In the Galaxy Group Headquarters building, Zhao Qiming was sitting in his office, leisurely sipping his coffee.

His secretary rushed in.

“Manager, this is bad! The people from the Battle Team Alliance are here!”

“The Battle Team Alliance?”

Zhao Qiming’s brow furrowed.

“What are they doing here?”

“They… they’re here for someone. They want us to release Lin Yuan.”

The secretary’s voice was frantic.

“Here for someone? On what grounds are they demanding him?”

Zhao Qiming sneered.

“Lin Yuan is suspected of murdering Galaxy Group’s Second Young Master and is under investigation. What right do they have to demand his release?”

“But… they’re from the Battle Team Alliance, we…”

The secretary was worried.

“So what if they’re the Battle Team Alliance? This is Lion’s Fang Star, not the Alliance’s territory!”

Zhao Qiming was dismissive.

“Tell them Lin Yuan isn’t here. Have them go ask headquarters for him!”

“Yes…”

Just as the secretary was about to turn, the office door was kicked open.

BANG!

Su Wan strode in, followed by Li Chang’an and the others.

“Zhao Qiming, you’ve got some nerve!”

Su Wan’s gaze was like ice as she stared directly at Zhao Qiming.

“To dare detain a Combat Group’s Battle Commander!”

“Min… Minister Su?”

Seeing Su Wan, Zhao Qiming’s expression changed drastically.

“Wha… what are you doing here?”

“And why shouldn’t I be here?”

Su Wan retorted, her voice icy.

“Where is Lin Yuan? Release him immediately!”

“Minister Su, it’s a misunderstanding, a complete misunderstanding. Lin Yuan really isn’t here.”

Zhao Qiming explained hurriedly.

“He’s suspected of murdering Galaxy Group’s Second Young Master, and headquarters is currently investigating.”

“Cut the crap!”

Su Wan cut him off sharply.

“I’ll say this one last time: hand over Lin Yuan. Otherwise, don’t blame me for what happens next.”

“Minister Su, you… you can’t do this. Our Galaxy Group is a respectable corporation, you…”

Zhao Qiming tried to argue further, but Su Wan cut him off again.

“Search!”

Su Wan gave the order.

The Battle Team Alliance warriors behind her immediately rushed into the office and began to search.

“You… you can’t do this! This is an illegal search! I’m going to file a complaint against you!”

Zhao Qiming yelled, flustered and exasperated.

“Illegal search? Do you have proof?”

Su Wan stared coldly at Zhao Qiming.

“If you can produce evidence proving Lin Yuan isn’t here, I will take my people and leave immediately.”

“I…”

Zhao Qiming was suddenly at a loss for words.

He couldn’t produce any evidence.

Because Lin Yuan was locked in the basement of the Galaxy Group Headquarters building.

“Search!”

Su Wan commanded again.

The Battle Team Alliance warriors searched even more meticulously, not missing a single corner.
