Medical Sovereign

As the newly promoted and youngest ever division chief of Ninghai national security bureau, the Chief considered Liu Junwei his right-hand man.

Unlike a normal person, he did not react with shock or surprise when faced with his leader’s favor. He remained as arrogant as ever and even appeared somewhat unwilling. However, this actually won Mo Fei’s approval.

He did not have a master’s in psychology for nothing. He knew very well that not only was playing hard to get very effective when used on women; sometimes it was even more effective when used against men in the workplace.

He was a man with great ambition. When he returned from his studies overseas, he resolved that he would undertake a great career.

He did not care about money. For such an intelligent and high-achieving student like him, earning money was a piece of cake.

After returning home, he created a company worth more than ten million dollars in less than six months and became a business elite that everyone admired. Growth and power were only a matter of time.

However, material wealth could only change his lifestyle, it was far from able to satisfy the mental stimulation he sought and desired, it was completely unable to realize the value of his life.

He was filled with the adventurous spirit of an opportunist and so after careful planning, he quickly achieved the initial steps to his life goal.

Using his meticulous powers of observation and his powerful ability to reason and analyze intelligence reports, he created all kinds of coincidences. Intentionally or otherwise, he helped the National security bureau capture a group of deep hidden foreign commercial spies. Step by step, he entered into Mo Fei’s line of vision and won his trust. Not only had he successfully become part of the national security bureau as planned, but he had also been promoted, against regulations, to the position of division chief of the Intelligence Division.

But he was not satisfied. He could tell that the leader surnamed Shen liked him immensely and had even given him the opportunity to take the lead. He had full authority in this mission where a shooter had publically open fire and ignited a powerful societal response.

This made him feel excited and happy. In his opinion, this was a test of his abilities by the leader as well as a chance to realize his life goal. This concerned whether or not he would have the opportunity to further broaden his horizons.

Ninghai was very big but it was very small in his eyes because his ambitions were great, to the point that he could not bear to be restricted to Ninghai, this one place.

His goal was the entire sea of stars, the entire Shenzhou Kingdom. He wanted to be part of the most powerful group of people.

The scent of power was intoxicating, it could even trap a person so they were unable to extricate themselves.

When he saw the deputy chief of the municipal public security bureau, an officer of the army, and the division chief of the national security bureau all under his command and following his orders to the letter, Liu Junwei felt drunk on the power in his hands. His desire for instant gratification swelled and it made him forget himself in his giddiness.

He thought it was most logical to have a plan of action that would obtain the most benefits at the lowest cost. Abruptly, he made the decision to give up saving Monkey’s life, and sent out a helicopter to send Monkey to the hospital to show that he did something.

In his opinion, he had done all he could and he used the act of sending out the helicopter to shut the media up. As for that Ding Ning that Lan Yang spoke of, he was not worth a single thought.

No matter how good he was, he was nothing more than a military man. He had always believed that those that toil with their minds are the ones that rule while those that toil with their hands are the ones that are ruled.

He never gave a thought to those muscular and simple-minded military men. If he wanted, he could dupe countless strong and muscular man to give their lives for him at any moment.

The three deputy leaders of the shooting incident were particularly against the decision he made and tried to persuade him with earnest and well-meaning words.

Unfortunately, Liu Junwei, whose intelligence had become blinded by power, was obstinate and self-opinionated, completely unable to take in their advice. On the contrary, he became even more intense.

In his opinion, there were ranks in life. Although such classist ideologies could not be publically announced, it was a fact as solid as iron.

Before the two kidnappers had been caught, Monkey had indeed been a very important witness and no effort should be spared in saving him.

However, once the two kidnappers and the shooter were caught, Monkey, this low-class life, was no longer important. Who would care about the life and death of a thief?

In his opinion, the decision he made was one that saved resources for the country, blocked the mouths of the media and common people, and allowed members of the special investigation team to achieve results, it was a good decision that killed three birds with one stone. He believed this was the most heroic and intelligent of all the decisions he had made during this mission and he was very pleased with himself.

Thus, he forcefully suppressed the three deputies’ objections and forged forward with this decision alone. He believed that Leader Shen was a superior being and would certainly understand what he had done and like him even more.

It was a pity that he had forgotten this was Shenzhou Kingdom, a democratic centralist country that greatly respected the wishes of its people.

It was not like those western countries that only sanctimoniously shout democratic slogans while secretly being an autocratic and dictatorial country.

Thus, while he was still pleased with his heroic decision, he had no idea that Shen Moru, who was having tea with Mo Fei in the office of the Chief of Ninghai national security bureau, had already given him a 24-word evaluation:

"Seeks instant benefits, neglects public opinion, has immoral schemes, toys with power, and lies to all. Not someone to put in an important position."

Mo Fei’s eyes were filled with regret and anger. "I had not thought that Liu Junwei was like this. I always thought that he was a very promising member of the intelligence division."

"This isn’t your fault, I also misjudged him. It is good for young people to have ability and ambition but if they are overly interested in instant benefits and are also good at scheming, it is very easy for them to become lost in their desire for power, it is very easy for them to be tempted and used by others. Once he gains power, the consequences do not bear thinking about. However, this is a matter of your national security so I cannot interfere too much. Do what you think is best."

Shen Moru calmly raised his cup and took a sip then said with great sincerity.

"It is good to break precedence and promote young and able colleagues but you must keep your eyes sharp and not be blinded by their achievements. You must be aware at all times of the responsibility that the national security bureau shoulders. A single leak can sink a giant ship. Using the strength of their cadre is only one facet, what is more important is their loyalty to the country and their character. If even their character is not up to standard, how can they shoulder the responsibility? If they are not wholly devoted to the country and the people, what use are their abilities? This is particularly true of positions in the Intelligence Division. Surely you don’t need me to remind you of the importance of this."

"Yes, Chief, I understand. I don’t know much about Liu Junwei’s character. It was only because no problems were found in his history during the political investigation and combined with the fact that he really is very capable, thus I neglected to investigate his character and broke precedence in promoting him directly. This was my mistake, I will take care of it."

Mo Fei, flushed and covered in a layer of cold sweat, apologized sincerely for his mistake. The Chief’s words were not without a hint of warning. His accusation of seeking instant benefit was not only directed at Liu Junwei, it was also directed at him, Mo Fei.

After all, why would he have broken precedence and promoted Liu Junwei if not to obtain political achievements? How could he, a merchant, become the division chief of the Intelligence Division with the nickname "Eagle Eye" in just one short year?

It must be noted that Ninghai was a provincial level city and the National Intelligence Division was an administrative department. Thinking about it closely, it was unbelievable that a returning, an overseas merchant had risen so meteorically to become an official of the department in just one year.

Although Mo Fei’s conscience was clear in that he had indeed promoted Liu Junwei because of his love for talent and Liu Junwei’s behavior had always made him worthy of this honor.

All of this was built on the condition that Liu Junwei did not mess up. Once something went wrong, it would be difficult for Mo Fei to escape the blame. He would certainly become implicated and it could easily become the best weapon his political opponents had in denouncing him.

It must be noted that the position of Chief of Ninghai national security bureau was a lofty and powerful position. There were many beneath him who had their eyes on this spot. Who knew how this information would be used by them at that time? Who would dare to stand out to speak on his behalf? Who would dare to say there wasn’t something fishy in all of this, that there wasn’t some exchange of power and money?

Shen Moru did not speak further on this matter. He believed that Mo Fei had just been blinded momentarily by political achievements and had acted rashly. Now that he had made clear the advantages and disadvantages of the matter, he would make the intelligent decision.

It was the detailed intelligence report on the table that Wind Shadow had delivered that greatly held his interest. The amazing doctor Ding Ning, who had treated his daughter, had turned out to be a master of his craft. This was far beyond his expectations.

However, after he thought about this closely, it wasn’t all that strange. After all, it was not unusual for a guy who could activate the True Qi in his body to know a little martial arts.

What was strange was how did this guy also know Xiao Nuo? And why had he gone so promptly to rescue the damsel in distress? Old Xiao, ah, Old Xiao, don’t let your daughter put a green hat on your future son-in-law.

Shen Moru thought with schadenfreude, not because his heart was dark but because jealousy haunted his heart.

After all, back in the day, the Dragon Triangle had been like brothers. Dragon Teeth and Dragon Horn had married, secretly coming to a marriage agreement which had left him out of the matter. This made him feel very unhappy.

He couldn’t help the fact that the person he was the most grateful to and respected the most was Dragon Teeth. The ages of the members of the Dragon Triangle were all similar but for him and Dragon Horn, not only was Dragon Teeth a brother, he was also their true and proper teacher.

These two wealthy sons of large families had originally joined the troops to plate some gold but had unexpectedly met Dragon Teeth. Amidst a rain of bullets, they became comrades that could give their lives for each other and this had changed their lives forever.

Most of his and Dragon Horn’s martial skill had been taught to them by Dragon Teeth. However, Dragon Teeth had never told this secret to another person and had asked them to keep the secret.

Having just entered the troops, Dragon Scale and Dragon Horn were just two rookies. The pride of being sons of large families had made them unlikeable in the army and they were very scorned.

What the veterans hated most were soldiers like them and would bully them for no reason. Dragon Teeth’s personality was simple and straightforward, he didn’t like to talk but was a very righteous person. He couldn’t accept the veterans’ arrogance and stood up for them. He won them over with his personal charisma and taught them ways to cultivate.

The three of them became the best of friends. Together they entered the newly established Dragon Soul special operations force, propped the entire Dragon Soul up, and became the famous Dragon Triangle.

For them, Dragon Teeth was brother and teacher but also their savior who saved their lives countless times on the battlefield.

Dragon Horn was intelligent but Dragon Scale’s personality was rash and impetuous. If not for Dragon Teeth risking his life a number of times to save him, his bones would be ash by now.

This also caused the incident where something went wrong with Dragon Teeth and Shen Moru had stopped at nothing to protect him which resulted in him being moved out of Dragon Soul.

Thus, speaking of feelings, Shen Moru and Dragon Teeth’s relationship was deeper but Drong Teeth and Dragon Horn came to a marriage agreement. This made him feel very aggrieved.

Draong Teeth would rather agree to marriage with Xiao Baiyu that old fox rather than with him. He felt that Dragon Teeth did not consider him his best friend and a sour taste filled his mouth.

It was this mentality of a child who had his favorite toy snatched away that made Shen Moru feel such schadenfreude, hoping that Xiao Nuo would cuckold Dragon Teeth’s son and have him marry his own daughter.

Although he was very pleased with Zhao Zilong, it was better to keep things within the family. In his heart, no matter how talented Zhao Zilong was, he would never compare to Dragon Teeth’s son.

If Dragon Teeth’s song wanted to marry Sen Muqing, he would toss aside Zhao Zilong without hesitation.

"Report, Chief. Something went wrong, the shooter is dead."

Just as he allowed his imagination to roam, a member of national security came to make his report with an unhappy expression.
