Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 147: Not Even the Emperor Can Save You Now

Liu Yuxuan was about to leave but Li Mo called her.

Hey, come here for a sec.

Li Mo had already been cuffed, just like a real drug dealer would be.

As for Ye Xiaolu, she ran away since this didnt concern her. As she didnt join the bustle, the youth and the girl had no clue Li Mo and she were related. 

Forgive me for my powerlessness. But trust me, I will definitely bring you justice.

Liu Yuxuan walked next to Li Mo with reddened eyes from remorse.

What are you saying? You can help me right now. Take the business card from my chest pocket and make the call. 

Liu Yuxuan hesitated before listening to him.

The card was blank on the front while only having a plainly written phone number on the back.

Go ahead and call. Itll be fine.

Hey, are you sure youre alright, or are you just faking? Want me to lend a hand? Ye Xiaolu shouted.

Li Mo snapped her a glare to shut her up. She ran back into the KFC joint.

Li Mo was by no means playing around. In the end, he had to be within the purview of society when walking in the open. Displaying the shocking power of the universe would only dump needless trouble on his head.

He had no intention to catch the eye of The Savior backing the nation so he chose to most rational way to dissolve this situation.

Not so tough now are ya? Theres a price to pay for messing with Wang Yanyan!

With Li Mo in cuffs, the girl resumed her normal bossy attitude. She ran to Chief Luo and had a hissy fit, Uncle Luo, this man is the worst. You must never release him! 

Dont fret, dont you know of me and your dad? We were once comrades and now partners. You are just like my own daughter. Since he had the nerve to mess with you, I wont spare him!

I will definitely handle it well. Dont worry.

Thank you, Uncle Luo.

The youth walked over, Dad, cant we just kill him? One shot and its over.

Chief Luos glare made the youth flinch.

Uncle Luo, your son, Luo Ying is so lame. A simple kick knocked him out cold. Humph, and he lied to me about being awesome.

I am awesome, but this, this guy

I dont want to hear it. I am mad at you!

Wang Yanyan crossed her arms and snorted with her chin out.

Wang Dong smiled, Yanyan, dont speak to your fiance like that.

Its normal for the kids to be angry. Let it go, brother Wang. Let them sort their own problems.

Ha-ha, alright.

Li Mo was brought before Chief Luo.

I dont care who you are but you dare hit my son and was hard on my daughter in law.

Lock him at the station and no food for a month.

Chief Luo, does that mean you want me to starve to death?

Precisely. In the next life, open your eyes wider.

Li Mo chuckled.

Chief Luo asked, Yanyan, what do you think of having him starve?

Great. Wang Yanyan clapped.

And, and he slapped me so many times. I want to pay him back for that.

Go ahead and pay him back.

Wang Yanyan lifted her hand but Li Mos hard gaze cowered her.

A growing crowd was gathering around the four and Chief Luo whispered something to Wang Dong, who nodded.

Back to the station!

The dozens of cops shoved Li Mo in the back of a police cruiser.

Liu Yuxuan was standing on the sidewalk with a phone in hand.

Dad, this time Chief Luo is wrong. I know Li Mo. I told you that if it werent for him, I wouldve died at that time. How can someone like him be a drug dealer?

There was no investigation and Chief went straight to accusing him of dealing drugs. They even had him cuffed. What do I do? Is this even justice? Dad, you have to help him. No, not him, but ourselves!

The phone went silent for a while then echoed out, Ill give old Luo a call and get a clear explanation.

Thanks, dad! Liu Yuxuan perked up.

Five minutes later, the phone rang.

You dont need to concern yourself with this anymore.

Why?

Li Mo beat old Luos son and his daughter in law so miserably that old Luo got so angry he even yelled at me.

How is this police work when its settling petty vendetta? Dad, youre the deputy. You have the power to make this right. What is Luo Zhengyi? A tyrant is what he is. None of what he says sticks. Cant you take it higher up the chain?

How can I do that? You know whos backing Luo Zhengyi, an official from the capital. He came to Feng City just to show off, but can we offend him? I can take it higher up the chain, but will it do any good? Not to mention above him there is an entire clan. Doing it will even put my job at stake.

Try to let this one go. Well discuss this over at my place at dinner.

Im not going. I dont have such a father!

Child

Liu Yuxuan hung up in a fit of rage.

Liu Yuxuan began calling any and all connections she had but no one would help her.

Why is it like this? Why?

Liu Yuxuans eyes were reddening.

Choking a sob, she took out Li Mos business card.

Will it work?

Liu Yuxuan hesitated before calling in the end.

Li Mo was thrown in a cramped and dark small room. It was so short that he couldnt even stand properly.  

He could neither stand nor sit, making it no different than torture.

Chief Luo and Wang Dong were happily chatting beyond the slit in the door.

Chief Luo snickered, Kid, youre quite connected, huh? Old Liu, officials, and leader Qun called to plead your case. Ha-ha

I would have spared you in any normal case for their sake but you had to go and mess with my son and daughter in law.

Not even the emperor can save you now. So sit tight and have a taste of starvation!

Brother Wang, want to go to Empress Restaurant and have the octennial exquisite duck? Old Chens skill is top-notch.

Lets. Ive long wanted to taste Chen Zhengzhongs famous octennial exquisite duck.

They were about to leave when Chief Luos phone rang.

The caller id had him stunned.

Whats wrong?

Its a military number. Odd, I dont recognize it.

Just ignore it then.

I cant. The military doesnt make random calls. Theres definitely a reason for calling me. If I dont answer, Ill only get to suffer later.

Wang Dong chuckled, Then answer.

Greetings. Chief Luo answered.

#*%& your greetings. A bark came from the other end. 

Chief Luo was stunned.

Who are you, sir? I am Feng Citys chief of police, Luo Zhengyi. My brother is Luo Zhengyong, vice-chief of staff in Chuan Province. My father in law

@%&# you! I dont give a rats ass who you are. If one hair is missing from my nephew, Ill have you all buried in cement!

Toot~

He hung up.
