Chapter 414: You Have to Press Your Advantage to the Very End

The Ironclad Department agents leading the group came from the Bandit Apprehension Division. Security work like guarding properties was their responsibility.

The leader immediately recognized Yang Ling as the newly appointed Chief Constable Yang from First Division, Public Security Department.

He waved his hand sharply, and all the Ironclad agents on scene simultaneously drew heavy crossbows, aiming at that woman.

A killing intent instantly filled the area.

Countless passersby also noticed, turning to look with a hint of shock and uncertainty in their eyes.

Among them were some officials working in various departments, who happened to be heading home to rest. Seeing someone fighting in front of the Ironclad Department headquarters was genuinely surprising.

Seven or eight young men and women watching the commotion were greatly alarmed, and one young man quickly stepped forward:

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! That's Princess Zhao Yingying of Prince Pinglan!"

The leading Ironclad agent was slightly taken aback. Princess of Prince Pinglan?

Then how could she be fighting with Yang Ling!?

No wait, she was being unilaterally beaten by Yang Ling!

He signaled his subordinates to lower their crossbows, looking at the two figures with a strange expression.

Yang Ling's legs were in mid-air, kicking Zhao Yingying again and again.

Zhao Yingying was defending herself desperately, doing her best to protect her vital points.

But his attacks came fierce and relentless like a violent storm.

She was clearly Upper Sixth-Rank, yet she couldn't even find a chance to counterattack.

Every time she gathered her breath to strike back, his ferocious assault had already doubled down on her.

Her arms had long gone numb from the kicks.

Her hairpin had been knocked flying, her hair scattering messily.

Her body had taken several kicks as well.

Fortunately, she was wearing the Fifth-Rank Divine Armament Inner Armor her father had given her, which absorbed most of the force.

Even so, she found the pain unbearable. Her stomach churned violently, and her internal organs were subtly injured.

"Damn it! How is he this strong..."

Zhao Yingying tried several times to speak, but Yang Ling's relentless attacks beat the words back down her throat. She could only curse him furiously in her heart.

"Princess of Prince Pinglan, seems to have a close relationship with Xie Zhihu, coming here specifically to seek revenge on me."

"But does being a princess mean she can attack a Sixth-Rank Ironclad agent on the street for no reason? This is the Capital's main avenue! She's completely lawless."

Yang Ling had deeply learned that in this world, you must never let up when you have the moral high ground.

Standing on the side of justice, he was invincible.

Unless the one on the opposite side of justice was a Grandmaster.

Yang Ling treated Zhao Yingying like a punching bag for martial arts practice.

He didn't even use any skills, simply practicing his Wind God Vajra Legs.

Those young men and women looked anxious. They instinctively wanted to intervene but were coldly blocked by the Ironclad agents beside them.

Seeing this, that young man immediately shouted:

"Yang Ling! The one you're beating is the Princess of Prince Pinglan! Stop right now!"

Yang Ling didn't stop, but the watching passersby were all stunned.

Officials from various departments exchanged glances. Some simply turned and went straight back into their own courtyards, not wanting to watch this kind of spectacle any longer.

At that moment, a group of players arrived nearby.

Around thirty or forty of them, all uniformly Canal Worker class.

"Isn't that Rank One Yang!? He's fighting someone!?"

Xu Peng was somewhat surprised.

The other players exchanged glances, envy and reverence showing in their eyes.

When they had first arrived, they'd also tried fighting on the streets.

The consequence was eating prison meals in the Ironclad Department.

But this Rank One Yang was brawling right at the Ironclad Department's doorstep, with a bunch of Ironclad agents guarding nearby. Such treatment was something they wouldn't even dare dream of.

Yang Ling still hadn't stopped. He shouted coldly:

"How could the Princess of Prince Pinglan attack and try to kill a Sixth-Rank Ironclad agent on the street? Clearly, she's a Rong tribe spy!"

The moment those words landed, his attacks became even more ferocious.

Zhao Yingying tried to speak again and again, but was beaten back every single time.

Anger, grievance, humiliation - all kinds of emotions mixed together. Her eyes were red, tears streaming down uncontrollably, and she could only endure his attacks in pathetic defense.

At some point, Yang Ling had already stopped.

But she remained in her defensive posture, unable to react in time.

The atmosphere on the street had become very delicate.

Seeing this scene, that young man's eyes burned with two flames of rage:

"Yang Ling! You are utterly arrogant! You dare to lay hands on the Princess of Prince Pinglan!"

Princess of Prince Pinglan! The group of Canal Worker players in the distance could hardly believe it.

They were born in the Zhao State Capital, so they naturally knew that beneath the Capital lay three Princely Capitals!

The strength of these three Princely Capitals was unfathomable!

Prince Pinglan was the ruler of one of those Princely Capitals!

Rumors said that there was a Second-Rank Human Immortal stationed there, and even a First-Rank Land Deity!

The Princess of Prince Pinglan was truly an extraordinary existence to them!

Just then, a group of Ironclad agents rushed out from the Public Security Department.

Led by Lu Qian and Li Huaiyi.

Yang Ling pointed at Zhao Yingying:

"This woman attacked and tried to kill an official on the street. Arrest her."

The two didn't hesitate at all. They led their men forward to apprehend Zhao Yingying.

The Ironclad agents from the Bandit Apprehension Division wore strange expressions. The leader's lips moved, but in the end, he didn't speak up to stop them.

Those seven or eight young men and women gasped sharply, completely unable to believe that Yang Ling would dare arrest the Princess of Prince Pinglan.

Things were spiraling beyond their control.

The officials from various departments still watching exchanged glances.

They suddenly remembered all sorts of rumors, including the one about Xie Zhihu getting his face beaten completely flat at the wharf.

The Canal Worker players quietly gasped sharply. They're even arresting the Princess of Prince Pinglan?

They weren't sure if the Ironclad Department truly had that kind of authority, or if this Rank One Yang had already climbed to such an incredible level.

It was only then that Zhao Yingying snapped back to reality. She immediately straightened up, staring at the surrounding Ironclad agents in shock and fury.

She was just about to speak when an Official Saber was already pressed against her neck:

"You're Upper Sixth-Rank, but if you resist, you will be killed on the spot."

A chill of terror rose in Zhao Yingying's heart, her scalp going numb.

Lu Qian and Li Huaiyi immediately led their men to take her away.

Taken along with her were the other seven or eight young men and women.

They had initially planned to curse loudly, but upon seeing the killing intent in Yang Ling's eyes, they chose to remain silent.

They were afraid. Afraid that this unpredictable madman would actually kill them on the spot, labeling them as Rong tribe spies.

After all, it really had been Zhao Yingying who had struck first without even asking a single question.

"Chief Constable Yang, that one might really be the Princess of Prince Pinglan..."

The leading Ironclad agent from the Bandit Apprehension Division said cautiously.

"No worries. This matter now falls under First Division, Public Security Department's jurisdiction. It has nothing to do with you. Continue carrying out your duties."

Yang Ling said with a smile.

The Bandit Apprehension Division agents immediately sighed in relief and dispersed.

Yang Ling waved at Xu Peng and the others, leading them into the Ironclad Department.

With Yang Ling taking the lead, no Ironclad agent questioned the identity of these Canal Worker players.

At First Division, Public Security Department, Chief Constable Wei and another Sixth-Rank Chief Constable were in conversation, discussing a case.

Suddenly seeing Li Huaiyi and Lu Qian escorting a group of people in, they were both somewhat surprised.

"Chief Constable Yang already has a case this fast? Rong tribe spies?"

Chief Constable Wei looked carefully, somewhat curious. But a few breaths later, he suddenly froze, and then his entire body shuddered.

"Old Wei, what's wrong?"

"I don't know if I'm seeing things, but it looks like Princess Zhao Yingying of Prince Pinglan has been arrested..."

Chief Constable Wei murmured to himself.

Seeing this, the other one immediately ran toward Director Ji Kongliu's small courtyard office.
