Disciple, please come down the mountain soon. Your senior sister can’t wait any longer.

After Pei Qingsong and Pei Xingchen reached a decision, they took action immediately.

Pei Qingsong immediately flashed into the darkness and protected Pei Xingchen in the dark. At the same time, he called Pei Runnian, the head of the Pei family, and asked them to mobilize the resources of the Pei family as soon as possible to manipulate public opinion and make it lean towards their side.

Pei Xingchen tidied up his appearance a little, made his hair and clothes look a little more messy, stretched his facial muscles, and after getting ready, he made an expression of fear and anger, and stumbled out of the lobby on the first floor.

At this moment, outside the Tianbo Building, sirens were blaring, and fire trucks with dazzling flashing lights had almost surrounded the entire Tianbo Building. There were countless circles of cordons.

There were countless firefighters in orange fire suits running back and forth, evacuating people nearby. It was an extremely busy scene.

After the fire chief gave the order to push the cordon outward and evacuate all personnel, he stood on the front line and gave direct commands instead of leaving immediately.

Moreover, with the passage of time, more and more big shots in Hedong learned about what happened in Tianbo Building and turned their attention to Tianbo Building.

The most direct consequence is that more and more people from all walks of life have come to Tianbo Building. Not only have agents of various bigwigs in the parliament come to the scene to observe and deal with the collapse of Tianbo Building, but more and more big families in Hedong have also noticed what happened here and have sent their men here to gather information.

At this moment, at the entrance of a hall of Tianbo Building, there was not a single ordinary person to be seen, but the fire chief and a dozen or so other people were standing at the entrance of the hall on the first floor, looking at Tianbo Building with frowns, and whispering from time to time.

"Now that the surrounding people have been evacuated, if Tianbo Building really collapses, the damage caused will be relatively small."

The fire chief whispered something to a dignified middle-aged man. The middle-aged man frowned, his eyes as sharp as knives, and snorted coldly.

"What's small?"

"Even if there were no casualties, the sudden collapse of a perfectly good building, in the center of the most prosperous commercial district, would have a very bad impact. If the collapse of Tianbo Building caused the complete paralysis of this commercial district, how much economic loss would there be?"

"How can such a huge loss be considered small?"

When the fire chief heard what the middle-aged man said, he touched his nose with embarrassment, knowing that his words had hit the nail on the head. But firstly, it had little to do with him, and secondly, the middle-aged man's words were not directed at him, so the fire chief did not take it to heart and let the middle-aged man scold him.

The truth is, as a fire chief, firefighting and disaster relief are his jobs, but what does anything else have to do with him?

After the collapse of Tianbo Building, all the nearby buildings collapsed, causing heavy economic losses. Does that have anything to do with him?

What's more, if you listen carefully, the middle-aged man's words seem to be scolding the fire chief, but his words are completely directed at the Pei family.

A perfectly good building suddenly collapsed, causing such a bad impact and so much loss. How could the middle-aged man not be dissatisfied with the Pei family?

Moreover, until now no one from the Pei family has come forward to explain to them what happened to the Tianbo Building and why it suddenly collapsed. Even before the middle-aged man came, he couldn't get through to the Pei family's patriarch, Pei Runnian. How could the middle-aged man feel at ease and not be very dissatisfied with the Pei family?

Even in the Hedong parliament, the middle-aged man was a senior figure who was capable of taking charge. Now that he was treated so poorly by the Pei family, he was naturally filled with anger and dissatisfaction.

The people around naturally understood the implicit meaning of the middle-aged man's words, and knew that he was not directed at them, so they simply kept their heads down and remained silent, saying nothing, allowing the middle-aged man to scold them.

As for the other few people who were not part of the parliament but were sent by other big families in Hedong to check on the situation, after hearing the middle-aged man's words, they immediately showed a happy smile on their faces.

They all knew about the competition between the Pei family and Chu Longtu, and at this moment they had probably guessed that the incident at Tianbo Building was most likely caused by Chu Longtu sending people to cause trouble.

However, because the party involved was the Pei family, and seeing that things were heading in the direction of bad luck for the Pei family, the other major Hedong family forces were also happy to see it happen, so they simply kept silent and did not say a word, wanting to see the Pei family in trouble.

Then, their chance will come.

Just when everyone was having different thoughts and harboring ulterior motives, they suddenly heard a stumbling sound of footsteps coming from the door of the first floor hall. Everyone couldn't help but look over there and immediately saw Pei Xingchen, with a dishevelled face, stumbling out of the door of the first floor hall.

Pei Xingchen already had injuries on his legs, so it was difficult for him to walk. But now he didn't even need to act to pretend to be in such a miserable state of being chased by someone. He could just play his true self.

They saw Pei Xingchen running towards them, stumbling and shouting.

"Hurry, help!"

"Killed!"

When everyone heard Pei Xingchen's call, their faces changed instantly, and someone immediately stepped forward to meet Pei Xingchen.

When Pei Xingchen shouted this, he felt extremely awkward and even angry.

Pei Xingchen was, after all, a master at the peak of dark energy. He had always been the one to kill others and make them cry for help. How come now it was his turn to be chased and killed and cry for help? This was simply a great shame!

If it wasn't for the purpose of throwing dirty water on Chu Longtu, Pei Xingchen would never do such a stupid thing.

Even if Chu Longtu was defeated, this would still be a black spot on his body in the future. How could Pei Xingchen not be filled with resentment?

Just as Pei Xingchen was feeling resentful, the people who came to pick him up had already arrived and supported him. Pei Xingchen's body also softened and he allowed the two people to support him and bring him to the middle-aged man, the fire chief and others.

The middle-aged man looked at Pei Xingchen's embarrassed appearance and couldn't help but frowned, then spoke in a gentle voice.

"You're safe now, young man."

"Why did you scream for help just now? Is someone chasing you?"
