Chapter 1371 Using Weapons to Combat Noise

As soon as Zhu Mian stood up, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.

As he smiled and walked forward, he simultaneously used his internal energy field to help people break through the shield and contact the outside world.

He believed that as long as the information flowed smoothly to the outside world, everything could be resolved, and all that was needed now was to delay the inevitable.

However, the other Resonators in the arena quickly told him that this approach was not feasible because the other Resonators were numerous and highly skilled, far superior to the security team he had hired.

Zhu Mian did not give up and tried to get the fighter in charge of security to make contact with the outside world.

However, the other side indicated that from the beginning, a spiritual field had enveloped the entire area, and anyone who tried to leave would be immediately intercepted and attacked.

Because they don't know what's going on, they don't recommend taking such action.

This choice is also normal. In Zhongjing, the waters run too deep. As long as it doesn't endanger the lives of the people the team is responsible for, we'll avoid touching them if possible.

Zhu Mian cursed under his breath, but his smile remained unchanged as he continued walking forward at a steady pace, glancing at the person approaching.

Chen Chuan stood there, his gaze deep and calm, and just one glance from him made him feel his breath catch in his throat.

Judging from his uniform and shoulder insignia, he is a member of the State Security Department.

This made him uneasy. After all, the Ministry of National Security held considerable sway, and even his father couldn't get involved in such a department. Faced with these people, the only thing he could rely on now was his status as a "natural" person.

Aside from those in the know, no one present immediately connected Chen Chuan with the world-class martial artist with the Dongxuan Martial Arts skill. However, those who recognized him tensed up and solemnly warned their subordinates or security personnel not to get involved.

Inside the private room, Old Du noticed the situation outside and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

His security personnel immediately reported the news to him.

"Ministry of National Security?"

Old Du said unhappily, "Nonsense! Why weren't you notified before the operation? I need to ask Minister He how things were arranged." At the same time, he sent a message to the security team, telling them to find out the situation.

Upon arriving at the front, Zhu Mian put on a smile, bowed slightly, and asked, "Sir, may I ask your name?"

Chen Chuan glanced at him and said calmly, "Chen Chuan, Commissioner of the Ministry of National Security Affairs."

Zhu Mian has no way to search the database, but standing in front of Chen Chuan, he feels a sense of terror.

Even when facing some of the powerful fighters within the faction, he did not have this feeling, which is enough to prove that the other party's identity is far more than just a committee member on the surface.

He forced a smile. "I am the organizer and person in charge here. As you can see, today's event is an arts awards ceremony. It does not involve any political propaganda or political gathering. Moreover, we have already reported it in advance and obtained approval from the higher authorities."

And then there's this time...

He gestured outwards.

“We have hosted many distinguished guests from home and abroad. They are all people of high status and position, and we really do not want to disturb them. So, if there is anything we can do to help them, we will do our best.”

Chen Chuan glanced at him, then his eyes swept outwards. Everyone whose gaze fell upon him felt a sudden jolt and instinctively avoided his gaze.

Team leader Fang Shucheng said from the side, "Mr. Zhu, we brought people here today because some people here have threatened the country, and I need to take them away. Please cooperate."

Just then, news came from Jie Ping's location. He looked up and said, "Steward, we've found the person. Request permission to arrest him."

Chen Chuan raised his hand, and Fang Shucheng immediately said to Jie Ping, "Make your move!"

At this moment, on Song Shicheng's side, the team members from the Affairs Department showed the group of people present the arrest warrant from the National Security Investigation Bureau.

"Upon investigation, we have discovered an incident involving national security that concerns you all. Please come with us."

All the people they're looking to arrest are here; they can catch them all in one fell swoop.

Song Shicheng and the others' expressions changed, and one of them immediately stood up, shouting angrily, "Arrest me? Do you know who I am?"

Some people even shouted, "I want to hire a lawyer!"

Several people joined in the commotion.

Almost immediately, these people collapsed, their eyes rolling back, under the impact of the field's power. Then, someone rushed forward, handcuffed them, and dragged them out like dead dogs.

The captain in charge of the arrest didn't waste any words with them; after completing the procedures, he immediately took action.

Song Shicheng's face darkened further, but he did not resist, allowing them to handcuff him and cooperate by walking him out.

He knew it was pointless to do so; others had already come to arrest them, so they knew who they were, and there was no need to suffer a loss now.

Zhu Mian saw them being led out by guards, and his face twitched slightly. He was the organizer here, and if he let them be taken away by guards, he would never be able to stay in Zhongjing again.

He hardened his heart and immediately sent a message to someone: "Old Chai, can you help me stop this?"

An aged voice quickly replied, "Young Master Zhu, I'm sorry, the country has only assigned me to protect your family's safety; I will not concern myself with anything else."

Zhu Mian was somewhat annoyed, but he also knew that he couldn't control the other party in this matter. He gritted his teeth.

He looked at Chen Chuan and said in a low voice, "Could you please give me some face, sir?"
I'll have these people report to the administrative department afterwards, I promise! Consider this a favor my Zhu family owes you!

Chen Chuan said calmly, "National laws are not child's play. Neither you nor your Zhu family are qualified to talk to me about these things."

Zhu Mian's face immediately turned bright red. These words were a severe humiliation to him, and no one had ever dared to treat him like this before.

He gritted his teeth, yanked his tie, and roared at the security company, "What's going on? Are you just going to let people take our guests away like this?" The head of Giant Shell Company was sitting in the VIP box. He exchanged a serious expression with the inactive consciousness implanted in his body, weighed the pros and cons, and immediately made a decision.

If they didn't step forward, the company's reputation would be ruined; but by stepping forward, even if they suffered losses, the company's reputation would be enhanced. Because the person who came was no ordinary person, but a world-renowned Throne Fighter.

Even though they knew they were outmatched, they still stood up, which fully demonstrates the company's determination to protect its customers.

At his signal, a man who looked like he was of mixed race immediately stepped forward and blocked the passage.

He spoke in a way that clearly reflected the characteristics of the Noros theocracy:

"Please wait a moment. I am the security supervisor of Giant Shell Defense Security Company. Our company is responsible for the security of this banquet. We will not allow you to take the guests away."

Chen Chuan had seen the information beforehand; it was a security company under the Tianxingpai Group, with business operations all over the world.

Furthermore, both the integration faction and the refinement faction have shares in this security company, which means they have the backing of a world-class faction. No wonder they still have some confidence.

However, this is meaningless.

He glanced at the man, who suddenly looked dazed for a moment, then his body went limp and he knelt on the ground with a thud, his arms hanging limply to the ground and his head drooping to his chest.

At this moment, everyone was horrified to see that the mutated tissue inside his body was frantically emerging from the surface of his skin, then twisting and spreading outwards as if trying to escape from this place, but unable to truly leave, only causing his whole body to twitch there.

The fighters present all looked solemn upon witnessing this scene; they had never seen anything like it before.

Even though he knew that ordinary fighters were just decorations in Dongxuan Temple, Chen Chuan did not recklessly expand his power. He seemed to be standing there doing nothing, but that was what made him so terrifying.

Chen Chuan then looked at Zhu Mian, and Fang Shucheng immediately stepped forward and said to him, "Mr. Zhu, please come with us."

Zhu Mian, both shocked and angry, took two steps back. "What do you mean? What are you trying to do?"

Fang Shucheng said, "We have the right to arrest you for inciting non-state armed personnel and obstructing the official duties of the Ministry of National Security."

"You are crazy!"

Zhu Mian was initially unwilling to believe that the other party would arrest him as well, but now it seemed that they were serious.

Still reeling from the terrifying scene and the oppressive atmosphere, he finally lost his composure. He backed away, shouting, "Stop them! Stop them!"

However, no one moved. The fighters present all had a transcendent status, and as long as the matter did not involve them, there was no need for them to take the initiative.

Moreover, if it were Vice Finance Minister Zhu, they might give him face, but if it were Zhu Mian, there would be no need for that.

Besides, they knew very well who they were facing, and that it would be useless even if they went up.

But just then, a voice suddenly came out, "You have really piqued my interest, and I really can't resist."

The sound was clearly transmitted to everyone's ears. People turned their heads and saw that there was a person sitting there less than ten meters away from Chen Chuan.

The people around him collapsed to the ground, seemingly unconscious, leaving a large empty space where he had been.

This person was wearing a trench coat with a strong religious theme, covered with various ancient mythical beast patterns, and had a nose ring and earrings on his face. He was staring straight at Chen Chuan.

He said in an excited and greedy tone, "I've only heard that you're very strong, but I really want to try it out."

When Zhan Jiyue saw this person, his expression turned serious, and he immediately sent a mental message to Chen Chuan.

"Member, this is Liang Qin of the Tianxing School, a fighter from the Dongxuan Temple, and a senior director of the National Provisional Special Action Committee."

At this moment, Liang Qin grinned and charged towards Chen Chuan. He knew very well what kind of destructive power a conflict between two Dongxuan Temple fighters would produce, but he didn't care.

He was only interested in fighting powerful opponents, and now that he had finally seen his long-awaited target, he could no longer suppress his inner desire. He only wanted to fight to his heart's content, and he didn't care about anything else.
He wouldn't care even if he killed everyone here, or even if his own life ended as a result.

As Chen Chuan watched him approach, something in his pocket suddenly shattered, and then a beam of light burst forth.

In that instant, everything and everyone in the room seemed to freeze and turn into black and white, except for him and Liang Qin who rushed towards him, who retained their colors. It was as if they had been separated into two different worlds.

This is a relic left behind by Ren Xinshan to his affairs department. When in action, it can create a field space similar to a semi-rift, just like the opposite side, which can separate people who are not on the same level.

He calmly watched the opponent's fist come up, then reached out and grabbed it with perfect accuracy. At the same time, he snapped his fingers together, and the sound of bones crushing and breaking came from the fist.

Then, he pulled the person towards him with one hand and punched them hard in the chest and abdomen.

With this punch, the opponent was smashed into a cloud of colorful smoke.

At that moment, another phantom appeared to his left, and another phantom appeared to his right, as if the other party had suddenly turned into several people.

A divine appearance? No, it's an anomaly, an anomaly, because the offensive force above is real.

Chen Chuan closed his eyes slightly, ignoring the approaching figure, and instead placed his hand on the hilt of the Snow Lord Blade. In the next instant, a bright light flashed.

In an instant, the space separating the two sides seemed to shatter. The two figures that had appeared on the left and right suddenly stopped and then disappeared. In a place that was originally empty, a head fell down, and then a headless body appeared there.

The head and body parts crashed to the ground simultaneously, shattering into a pile of flesh and blood with a loud crack, and quickly turning into black powder.

Chen Chuan then turned his blade, and with a clang, the Snow Lord Blade instantly returned to its sheath. He remained standing still the entire time, with only his uniform swaying slightly.
