Chapter 458 The Savior Is Here!

• With a sharp snort, Sun Justice hung up. Then he quickly sent a team out and headed straight for the Svenson Family. He was as hard-edged as they came, and he couldn’t stand those arrogant rich brats with empty privilege. Even if the guy were royalty, today he’d make sure the law nailed him. On the other end, Hu Chong paused, then let out a cruel laugh. He looked at Henrik Jansson like he was watching an idiot walk into traffic. “You asked for it, man. Don’t blame me. Just wait—you’re done.” He knew Henrik Jansson could command Enver’s Three Giants and still swagger in his face, so the guy’s background had to be scary. He’d been worried the local precinct might show up and he’d lose face if he couldn’t take Henrik down. Not anymore. Henrik had basically dug his own grave by helping him reach Sun Justice. Sun Bureau Chief—now that was someone. The No. 1 power broker at the Enver municipal bureau, one of the few sitting at the peak of Enver’s power. And everyone knew Sun Justice was straight as an arrow and hated second-generation elites. Henrik had the nerve to poke that bear? Even a god of war couldn’t save him now. Ling Ruixiang and the rest of the Svenson Family, and Elin Svenson too, were even happier than Leader Hu. They’d thought payback was hopeless. But now Henrik had decided to jump into the pit himself. That was a gift from the heavens. They were practically bouncing, ready to cheer. Henrik Jansson saw the excitement flicker in Elin Svenson’s eyes and let out a cold laugh. “Elin, don’t celebrate yet. Relax. Even if the big boss of the universe shows up, I’ll make sure you’re squared away today.” A flash of ice crossed his eyes. “This time, I’m not letting you slip away.” Elin’s heart dropped, then she burst out laughing. At a time like this, Henrik still dared to talk big. She couldn’t tell if he was naive or just plain stupid. “Fine. Henrik, I’ll admit it—you’ve got balls. Way more than I expected.” “Who do you think you are, huh? This is the state capital! You think you can cover the sky with one hand here?” “You don’t even know who you’re messing with. Keep posturing. I want to see if you wet your pants when Sun Bureau Chief walks in.” Hydra and Xu Kun traded looks. They knew Henrik was the real deal. Guys like him being cocky was normal. But beating up someone like Hu Chong, a real power inside the system, right in public—that was pushing it. And provoking someone on Sun Justice’s level? Honestly… kind of dumb. No doubt, Hydra, Xu Kun, and Dolph were all kings in their own territories. Henrik, as the leader of the Black League in the Midsouthern state, held serious sway too. But duking it out head-on with a heavyweight like Sun Justice? That was smashing an egg against a rock. The state would never allow an underground group stronger than the state machine, period. If they were worried, Ingrid Svenson’s family was downright terrified. Ingrid knew Henrik was raging and doing reckless things because he cared about her too much, because it hurt to see her hurt. She bit her lip hard, anxiety tightening her chest for him. Only Dolph kept perfectly calm—he’d been at Immortal’s Rest and seen Sun Justice show Henrik real respect with his own eyes. Hearing Elin’s smug taunts, Dolph strode forward in two big steps. He grabbed Elin by the hair with one hand and slapped her hard with the other. Blood sprang from her mouth and two front teeth popped out. “You filthy piece of trash! Mr. Jansson isn’t someone you get to disrespect.” Elin crashed to the floor with a cry, clutching her mouth and glaring at Henrik with poison in her eyes. Damn ex-convict—go ahead and strut. When Sun Bureau Chief gets here, I’ll watch you die. As she, Hu Chong, and the Svenson crowd waited like kids for Christmas, a harsh shout suddenly boomed from outside. “Who told you to gather here? This is an illegal assembly, you hear me? Clear out!” That was Sun Justice, roaring at the men Dolph had brought. Hu Chong looked like he’d just seen the Shield of Nation, scrambling to be first to greet him. “Sun Bureau Chief! Sun Bureau Chief, I’m here!”
