"D-Double spy?" Zhou Jingjing was dumbfounded by the offer Lee Tao had given her.

A double spy ant that she would be openly helping out the emperor of the Qinzhou Kingdom, but in reality, she is actually helping Lee Tao out.

This kind of role never has any good ending for them since making one mistake could result in having an enemy on both sides.

After all, the emperor of the Qingzhou Kingdom would never spare her life or her close-ones if he ever found out that she is helping Lee Tao.

Zhou Jingjing wanted to reject his suggestion, but when her eyes landed on Zheng Wenling, her emotions were like a wave, moving up and down.

Gritting her teeth, Zhou Jingjing responded to his offer.

"I can be your double spy, but you must not harm Zheng Wenling in any matter." She demanded.

Lee Tao shrugged his shoulders.

"Whatever, Zheng Wenling is rely a bargaining chip to get you to accept my offer." He said coldly.

"Now how does that feel, Zheng Wenling? Instead of capturing and having as the bargaining chip, the role had magically changed in which you are the chip for the bargaining."

Zheng Wenling bit her lips tightly- to the point that blood had already begun to seep out.

No matter how taunting Lee Tao's words were, it was an undeniable fact that she had indeed beco the shackle that had brought Zhou Jingjing down on a path of no return.

"You are even crueler than our emperor," Zheng Wenling spat.

Lee Tao nodded his head.

Being cruel was better than being a sacrificial lamb that would be killed in an instant.

"You're right, Zheng Wenling. You manage to predict sothing correctly for once." He sneered coldly.

Afterward, he turned around and smiled at Zhou Jingjing.

"Anyway, what division of spies are you from? I'm pretty sure there are multiple categories of your occupation." He asked.

"We are from the 6th division, directly under the command of his majesty and commander Fang Shirong." Zhou Jingjing replied.

"What does the other division do and how many spies are implented in our Tianyun Kingdom?"

"We're all doing our own stuff, so I can't really tell you how many spies are implented there. I can only say an approximate number of at least 50 people."

"Hmm, your emperor is really ambitious. Despite knowing my mother is residing there, he still wants to conquer the kingdom."

"What can I say? His majesty is blinded by greed and power."

Soti later, Lee Tao tidied up his clothes and started heading downstairs with the rest.

As soon as he headed downstairs, he was greeted by the Raven Guild Leader, Song Xiaoli.

"Are you leaving now?" Song Xiaoli asked calmly.

"Mhmm, I suppose you are delighted to hear that news right?"

"I have no clue what you're talking about."

"Whatever, Leader Song Xiaoli. Just rember this carefully." Lee Tao said and walked closer to her.

He then leaned close to her ear, causing Song Xiaoli's subordinate to try to attack him for his audacity but was stopped by her.

Song Xiaoli had her hand raised up high, indicating for her subordinate to not make any rash movent.

anwhile, Lee Tao ignored her subordinate and proceeded to whisper into her ears.

"My na is Lee Tao, and if you ever felt like getting revenge for being humiliated, then you are free to find in the Qingzhou Kingdom. The emperor is my godfather and he will definitely listen to my request in buying you to serve well in bed."

After that, Lee Tao laughed heartily and waved his hand, leaving the Raven Guild altogether.

At the sa ti, he couldn't help but praise himself for provoking the guild to cause trouble for the Qingzhou Kingdom.

So works are better off leaving to the hands of others.

Why would he need to waste his effort and energy on a trivial matter?

Once Lee Tao and his group left the Raven Guild, Song Xiaoli's calm deanor was replaced with a cold aura.

BAM!

She slamd the table with her palm and the table was soon shattered into bits of wood.

"Leader!"

Lao Ching and the other subordinates knelt on one knee as they yelled out with a cupped fist.

"What a great Lee Tao huh?" Song Xiaoli muttered in a cold tone.

"The emperor of the Qingzhou Kingdom is your godfather and that he can easily buy off to warm your bed? Then let's see if he can manage his kingdom properly when I gather our alliances."

She clenched her fist and turned around to stare at Lao Ching.

"Lao Ching, quickly inform the other scavenger and rcenary guilds that are associated with us. We're going to show that we're not so fish on the chopping board." She commanded.

"Understood, I'll take the fastest mount to inform everyone." Lao Ching nodded his head and quickly left the Raven Guild.

"The rest of you, follow . We'll destroy the Qingzhou Kingdom transport supply. They can suffer an economic crisis." Song Xiaoli sneered coldly.

"We will follow Leader Song Xiaoli's order!"

As the Raven Guild busied themselves with getting revenge, Lee Tao had already left their vicinity and entered the inner zone of the Sierra Desert.

"Master, what did you whisper to Song Xiaoli?" Deng Lijuan tugged onto his sleeve and asked softly.

Lee Tao curled his lips upward when he heard her question.

He proceeded to relay the exact sa words he said to Song Xiaoli for her.

"Huh, b-but you are not-" Deng Lijuan made a gasping noise as she glanced around, or most specifically, at the two spies from the Qingzhou Kingdom.

"Aren't you afraid Song Xiaoli will figure out your lies?" She asked Lee Tao in a low but subtle tone.

Lee Tao shrugged his shoulders.

"I don't really care if she found out later on or not. At least for now, the Qingzhou Kingdom is now my scapegoat and will have a difficult life ahead of them."
