"I have never been fond of harming others, but..."
"Since you intend to harm my student right before my eyes, I cannot tolerate it."
Old Jin gently clasped his palm, once again increasing the strength of the white giant hand pulling the chains.
"I have to seek justice for my student."
As his words fell, the white giant hand gave a fierce tug—
"Crack!"
Another loud noise echoed.
The bones of the black-robed leader cracked like biscuits.
His face turned crimson, and his teeth were about to shatter, yet he couldn't break free from the restraints, only watching as the silver chains tightened deeper and deeper, digging into flesh and breaking bones...
The dignified leader of the law enforcement team, now, didn't even have the slightest ability to resist.
He finally realized the gap between himself and Old Jin, and truly understood the weight behind the title of "Notorious Jin."
However, the price for this realization was excessively heavy...
"Senior Jin, please stop here..."
Just as the black-robed leader was on the brink of losing consciousness, the gray-haired girl Kai suddenly spoke.
"You have done enough, please spare him..."
"Have you forgotten about the Order of Non-Belligerence?"
Upon hearing this, Old Jin indeed paused, then slowly released his grasp, casually tossing the black-robed leader on the ground.
Nevertheless, the leader still suffered severe injuries, having his hand bones and all ribs crushed, teetering between life and death.
Yet, no matter how grave the injuries, it was better than losing his life entirely.
Seeing this... the other black-robes didn't dare to step forward to assist their leader, fearing that displeasing Old Jin would result in them being twisted into pretzels as well.
It wasn't until Old Jin averted his gaze that they dared to help their leader up.
"Does anyone else want to arrest my student?"
Old Jin glanced around, and everyone present bowed their heads, not daring to make eye contact with him.
It was laughable... with the master standing here, if they dared utter anything extra, wouldn't that be akin to courting death?
The distinguished black-robed figures were being toyed with like clay by Old Jin, what were they worth?
Some, especially those like Kao and Judge Zhou Changkong who advocated arresting, were nearly scared out of their wits.
They stood trembling in a corner, not daring to make a single sound above a whisper.
Kao couldn't resist inwardly complaining about Yun You...
"Damn brat, why didn't you say sooner your master was this powerful? Had you said earlier, I wouldn't have been foolish enough to call for your arrest..."
Faced with such accusations, Yun You was actually quite helpless.
After all, before Old Jin acted, she didn't know exactly how powerful her master was either.
In some sense, her understanding of Old Jin wasn't much deeper than that of these older Apprentice Death Gods.
"Alright, I am not one to kill indiscriminately, let this be the end for today."
Old Jin glanced at the black-robed figures and calmly asked, "It was you who acted first, intending to attack my little apprentice... Isn't it reasonable for me, as her master, to seek some justice?"
"Any objections?"
"No... no! The law enforcement team has no objections... You did the right thing..."
The black-robed figures responded in agreement.
How could they dare have any objections? Even the most gravely injured leader dared not express any dissatisfaction.
"That's good then."
Old Jin smiled and casually said, "After all is said and done, I am still quite a reasonable person."
"Now, it's time to deal with the little girl's matter."
He turned to look at the long-ponytailed female police superintendent and Judge Zhou Changkong.
"Though my student killed a lot tonight, if I am not mistaken, the Nest City law shouldn't apply to Apprentice Death Gods, right?"
"According to Article 97 of the Nest City Public Security Law, Apprentice Death Gods have the right to 'act at their discretion,' and when they gather enough evidence against a target, they can apprehend without informing the police and take direct action."
"While the Public Security Law doesn't explicitly state Death Gods have killing rights, in the capture process, it's not unusual for 'suspects to resist arrest,' in which case, deaths caused by lack of control over one's strength should also be quite normal."
Old Jin patted Yun You on the shoulder, feigning regret as he sighed, "My student here, only became an Apprentice Death God two weeks ago, so she's always struggled to control her strength, breaking who knows how many doorknobs at home."
"As for tonight, I guess she simply intended to apprehend those criminals, but they relied on their numbers to resist arrest, even pulling out deadly weapons to attack my student."
"The little girl didn't want to fight originally, but left with no choice, she had to retaliate, ultimately resulting in the accidental deaths of those who should have been captured."
As he spoke, Old Jin glanced at the police superintendent, giving her a meaningful look.
"Superintendent, I'm sure my assumption is correct, right?"
"Uh... of course it's correct!"
The police superintendent nodded hastily and directly recorded his statement in her tablet, respectfully replying, "Your assumption is entirely correct, we will report this word for word, ensuring Death God Miss's innocence is upheld."
"That's good then."
Old Jin smiled contentedly, then gazed at Kao and Kai.
"As for Yang Lie's death, it wasn't merely a slaughter."
"Look over there."
He pointed towards the Headquarters Building of Tiger Heavy Industries.
At this moment, the building remained covered by thick protective steel plates.
"The fight between my student and Yang Lie occurred inside the building, which activated its security protection systems to lock down the interior."
"Let me ask, if it were simply a slaughter, was it necessary to seal the site beforehand?"
"There was only one reason my student did this — she didn't want to inadvertently hurt the innocent, she wanted to resolve her conflict with Yang Lie in an enclosed environment."
"Thus, it's not a slaughter, but a duel—a fair and square, one-on-one duel."
"The little girl beside my student was probably the witness to the duel."
He pointed to Aurora, who had remained silent for a long time, and she immediately understood, nodding repeatedly.
"In cities, Apprentice Death Gods indeed cannot slaughter each other, but if it's not slaughter but a normal... fair duel instead, then even the law enforcement team has no grounds to intervene."
"My student, with some personal vendetta against Yang Lie, initiated a duel after accidentally killing some people, and ultimately, succeeded in triumphing over Yang Lie."
"This shouldn't violate any rules."
As these words were spoken, those present dared not express the slightest objection, nodding continuously and documenting Old Jin's words as part of the closing process.
They obviously knew there was no such duel between Yang Lie and Yun You.
But that wasn't important anymore.
What's important is obediently following Old Jin's orders, doing exactly as he said.
At present, his words were the golden rule, irrefutable truth.
"This way, my student should not face so many charges."
Old Jin clasped his hands behind his back, leisurely saying, "However, killing so many at once is indeed excessive, and I will discipline her later, sparing everyone the worry."
"Oh, one more thing."
"I recall that according to the rules of the duel, the victor is entitled to all the wealth of the loser, right?"
"In that case, I'd trouble the honorable judge and superintendent to change the person in charge of Tiger Heavy Industries to my student's name afterward, and handle any property transfer procedures."
"From today onwards, my student Yun You is the new chairman of Tiger Heavy Industries."
"Ladies and gentlemen."
Old Jin smiled, casually asking...
"Any other opinions on this matter?"
