BXBX NOVEL Chapter 128: 128: Ye Yu's End
As expected, her words caused uncertainty among the officers. They knew Ming Yuexin was always decisive, so her caution now indicated just how dangerous this mission would be. Many faces showed hesitation, unsure if risking their future was worth it.
Seeing the hesitation in her subordinates, Ming Yuexin felt a wave of disappointment. She had believed that with the evidence she had, they could confront Ye Yu. But even among her own team, it seemed she couldn\'t bypass this barrier.
Suddenly, a young officer stood up, breaking the tense silence. "What are we talking about here? We\'re police officers. Our job is to protect the public and fight against criminal forces. Sometimes that means risking everything—even our lives. Chief, give the order.
I\'ll be the first to stand by you!" The speaker was Yang Guang, a young woman in her twenties. Though she wasn\'t as striking as Ming Yuexin, her round face and petite figure made her endearing. Her popularity in the branch was on par with Ming Yuexin\'s.
Ming Yuexin looked at Yang Guang with admiration. Despite being a newcomer from the police academy, she had already made an impact in the branch. Yang Guang\'s words couldn\'t have come at a better time.
Sure enough, after hearing her passionate statement, the other officers felt ashamed of their hesitation. Many of them had once scorned the older, jaded officers for their complacency, and now they were behaving the same way. Yang Guang\'s words sparked a renewed sense of duty in them.
"She\'s right. If we\'re afraid of evil forces, why are we still wearing this uniform?" one officer spoke up. "Chief, just give the word!"
With the youthful energy of the team fully reignited, everyone expressed their willingness to follow Ming Yuexin into action. No one backed down.
"Alright!" Ming Yuexin\'s face grew serious again, returning to her usual decisive demeanor. "Turn off your phones. We\'re heading to the Dynasty Club. Let\'s move out!"
The Dynasty Club, the headquarters of the Lingyun Society, was a well-known location in Wanghai. Everyone in the city was aware of it, and the police knew it even better. Though the thought of confronting the Ye family\'s power was intimidating, it was also exhilarating.
The Ye family had crossed too many lines recently, committing acts that angered even ordinary citizens, let alone these justice-driven officers.
Looking at the confidence in Ming Yuexin\'s eyes, the officers believed she had strong evidence. This could be their chance to take down the notorious Ye family. Success would make them heroes in Wanghai, and even if they failed, just knowing they had tried would be enough to feel proud in the future.
A fleet of police cars sped toward the Dynasty Club in the city center. Normally, a district branch like theirs would be overstepping by targeting such a powerful group, but with Mayor Liu Fengyi\'s backing, the situation was different.
Meanwhile, at the Dynasty Club, Ye Yu wasn\'t enjoying his usual leisure. He sat in a meeting room, facing a group of angry elders. He could feel the pressure mounting.
"Ye Yu, I\'ve only got one question for you today," growled an elderly man with white hair. "How far do you plan to push Lingyun Society toward destruction before you\'re satisfied?" The speaker was Zhang Yide, a highly respected figure who had helped build the society alongside Ye Fei\'s grandfather. His influence in the organization was second only to the late patriarch and Ye Lingtian.
"Grandpa Zhang, what\'s that supposed to mean? What have I done wrong?" Ye Yu snapped back, irritated. He had known for a while that the elders were unhappy with his leadership, but he hadn\'t expected them to confront him like this.
Zhang Yide sneered. "What have you done wrong? Look at the chaos you\'ve caused since you took over—smuggling, drug trafficking, forced prostitution. Is there any crime you haven\'t committed? You\'ve completely disregarded the founding principles of Lingyun Society!"
Ye Yu scoffed, "Founding principles? The only thing that matters is that I\'ve made more money for Lingyun Society in the past year than ever before. Even my father supports me."
At the mention of Ye Lingtian, Zhang Yide\'s anger flared. "I\'ve been meaning to speak to Lingtian about what a disgrace you\'ve become. It would be better if he were still in charge!"
Ye Yu\'s face darkened as he realized Zhang Yide was challenging his authority. "Zhang Yide, are you trying to rebel against me?"
Zhang Yide\'s voice was steady, "Call it what you want. I won\'t let the legacy that Brother Ye built be destroyed by a scoundrel like you!" With that, he motioned to the men behind him, signaling them to move.
Ye Yu had been in control of Lingyun Society for over a year, so naturally, he had his own loyal followers. But compared to the number of men behind Zhang Yide, his supporters were vastly outnumbered. Despite this, Ye Yu didn\'t panic. Instead, he smirked. "Do you think you can take me down so easily?"
Ignoring his words, Zhang Yide gestured for his men to apprehend Ye Yu. Just as they began to advance, Ye Yu stepped back and shouted toward the door, "Come in, everyone! Let\'s show them who really runs Lingyun Society!"
The door to the conference room was suddenly kicked open, and a large group of people stormed in. However, Ye Yu\'s confident expression quickly changed to one of shock. The people entering the room weren\'t his backup—they were police officers.
"Ye Yu, you are under arrest for drug trafficking, smuggling, and numerous other crimes," Ming Yuexin declared as she emerged from the group, reading off a list of charges. Then, she gave the command, "Take him!"
Ye Yu\'s face twisted with rage as he turned to Zhang Yide. "You\'ve teamed up with the police to bring me down?"
Zhang Yide, though surprised by the police\'s arrival, was relieved that justice was being served. He only hoped that the arrest wouldn\'t bring unnecessary consequences for the rest of the society\'s members.
Ye Yu, realizing his game was up, struggled violently as officers moved in to detain him. His time at the helm of the Lingyun Society was over, and with him, the criminal reign that had tarnished the Ye family\'s legacy was about to end.
