Supremely Talented Tyrant-Chapter 445 - His Name is Hao Jian
Old Zhang and his wife were shocked to see Lin Nantian behaving like a grandson in front of Hao Jian. After all, Lin Nantian was a bureau chief, not some nouveau riche like Song Chunlai to be compared with. That such a personage had to be so respectful toward Hao Jian, just who on earth was Hao Jian?
"Do you think I should blame you?" Hao Jian asked with a smile, but although he was smiling, Lin Nantian knew that Hao Jian was not really smiling.
"I should, but I had no choice," Lin Nantian said helplessly. He, too, dared not offend Xuanye, so he could only turn a blind eye to the plight of Old Zhang and his wife.
"How could you have no choice?" Hao Jian asked, frowning, it seemed that Lin Nantian still had some unspeakable difficulty.
"That Xuanye is... is Kong Xiaozhen's cousin!" Lin Nantian finally dropped this bombshell.
"Kong Xiaozhen's cousin? So, he is a member of the Kong Family?" A chill flashed through Hao Jian's eyes. As a great family of Huaxia, they not only failed to restrain their descendants but indulged their misbehavior. Hao Jian felt extreme disgust toward the Kong Family at this moment.
Seeing the anger on Hao Jian's face, Lin Nantian knew he had gained Hao Jian's understanding and hurriedly said, "It's not that I didn't want to arrest him, but my superiors took Kong Xiaozhen's side and ordered me to release him. I really had no choice."
It wasn't that he didn't want to help Old Zhang and his wife, he was truly powerless.
Listening to this, Old Zhang and his wife also expressed their understanding. It wasn't easy for Lin Nantian, after all, he was just a district chief, and there were many officials higher than him.
"Bring Xuanye back, I'll cover for you on this matter," Hao Jian commanded Lin Nantian.
"This..." Lin Nantian hesitated. Although Hao Jian said he would cover for him, how could Lin Nantian be sure that Hao Jian meant it?
Setting aside whether Hao Jian's words were true, in his opinion, going against the Kong Family was not an easy task.
Hao Jian had no fear of the Kong Family, no fear of Kong Xiaozhen, but he had to be afraid.
If he helped Hao Jian make the arrest, then Kong Xiaozhen would naturally categorize him with Hao Jian's side. Then both the Kong Family and Kong Xiaozhen would target him.
"What? You disagree?" Hao Jian's eyebrows shot up instantly, his eyes glinted with icy sharpness, a coldness that seemed to pierce to the bone.
Cold sweat broke out on Lin Nantian's back, and he said with a tearful voice, "Mr. Hao Jian, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I really dare not!"
Hao Jian let out a cold laugh, "You dare not catch Xuanye when I ask, but you dare defy me, is it because in your eyes, I am easier to bully than the Kong Family?"
Hearing this, Lin Nantian's legs went weak, "Mr. Hao Jian, I really didn't think that way, I..."
Lin Nantian didn't know what else to say; he felt like he was in a lose-lose situation whether he agreed or not.
"Cut the crap, either bring Xuanye to me within an hour, or else you can just pack up and leave! Don't think Kong Xiaozhen can't touch you, but I can't touch you!" Hao Jian said coldly, as a public servant, what use was he if he didn't alleviate the people's worries and difficulties?
Lin Nantian's face turned completely white. He truly felt like crying now. What had he done to deserve all these troubles coming his way?
Lin Nantian bowed his head, clenching his teeth tightly, seemingly weighing which side he leaned toward.
Hao Jian was extraordinarily capable, with a mysterious background, and an unclear origin. He had repeatedly made Kong Xiaozhen suffer, even thrashing him more than once, resulting in neither Kong Xiaozhen nor the entire Kong Family daring to touch him.
Meanwhile, Kong Xiaozhen, coming from an established family, held immense power in Hua City, controlled the local military, and was comparable to a local tyrant.
Faced with a mysterious maverick on one side and a colossal force firmly rooted in the area on the other, Lin Nantian was hesitant to decide which side to take.

Because once he made the wrong choice, what he faced would be irreversible destruction.
Hao Jian was forcing him to take sides, and if he chose the wrong side, losing his black gauze cap would be the least of his problems, his life might be at stake too.
After a long while, Lin Nantian finally let out a long sigh, looked at Hao Jian, and asked, "If I do as you say, are you willing to look out for me?"
"Of course! I'm the one assigning you this task. You can use the threat I pose as an excuse to bring back Kong Xuanye. That way, even if the Kong Family wants to vent their anger on you, their rage will be somewhat diminished!" Hao Jian said with a smile.
"Alright, I'm in!" Lin Nantian gritted his teeth and glared fiercely, finally ready to go all out.
He chose to stand with Hao Jian because Hao Jian had already demonstrated miracles time after time, confronting the entire Kong Family alone and subjecting them to repeated humiliation.
It wasn't just the Kong Family, the Liang Family, the He Family, none could do anything to him, so he thought he'd take a gamble!
"Ma Zifeng, move out, make the arrest!" Lin Nantian walked toward the door and called out to Ma Zifeng, who was waiting outside.
"Chief, who are we arresting?" Ma Zifeng asked in confusion.
"Kong Xuanye!" Lin Nantian said with a cold huff.
"Kong Xuanye? But isn't Kong Xuanye..." Ma Zifeng was astonished, Lin Nantian was actually going to move against Kong Xuanye?
"Enough with your damn nonsense, just take your team and go arrest him. If I don't see Kong Xuanye here within half an hour, you can forget about being captain any longer!" Lin Nantian stated with an unyielding expression.
"Yes, sir!" Ma Zifeng snapped to attention, saluted Lin Nantian quickly, and then hurriedly led his men out.
Meanwhile, in a luxurious villa in the East City District, a group of men and women, about a dozen in total, were all gathered here.
They were blasting ear-piercing metal rock music, listening to the singer's hysterical screams, while dancing wildly to the music as if possessed.
Their appearances were different, and so were their identities, but at this moment, they shared one thing in common—all of them were stark naked!
Obviously, this was a decadent orgy, complete with rock music, foreign liquor, drugs, and, of course, the indispensable sex.
The men were growling deeply, and the women were moaning loudly, their sounds mixing with the metallic music, filled with a sense of corruption and frenzy.
"Kong Xuanye, you are suspected of spreading pornography, leaking others' privacy, organising orgies, drug use and other charges. I am here to arrest you, so come with us," someone announced.
Kong Xuanye was stunned for a moment, then frowned furiously, "Do you know who I am? Arrest me? You've got some nerve!"
Ma Zifeng snorted coldly and said, "Of course, I know who you are, Kong Xuanye, the scion of the Kong Family."
This last remark seemed to stupefy Kong Xuanye even further: "Knowing that I'm from the Kong Family, you still dare to arrest me? Is your brain crushed by a door?"
"The one who got his brain crushed is you. The person wanting to arrest you isn't me, but someone else, and that person, I think
