428: Chapter 427 Land of Faith Dog Paps Knocking?
After passing through the most dangerous zone of the Insect Clan, upon entering Zone 10, Lu Zixun could clearly feel that the team mbers of Tang Tianyu’s squad breathed a sigh of relief.
Were these Insect Clan mbers that fearso?
Having entered and left the Insect Clan’s area so many tis, Lu Zixun truly hadn’t felt the so-called pressure.
“The task handover needs to be done in Zone 10—after we deliver the materials, we’ll head for Zone 7.”
Tang Tianyu walked to the driver’s seat and explained to Lu Zixun.
Material transport…
Lu Zixun narrowed his eyes and asked, “You’re coming from Zone 11.
What’s the situation there now?”
“Hm?
As usual, just that the staff in the task hall seems to have changed, much younger than before.”
After carefully recalling, Tang Tianyu reported truthfully.
Hearing this, Lu Zixun fell into deep thought.
It seed that the reforms in Zone 11 were only being implented internally.
The outside world was unaware of what truly happened in Zone 11.
This also implied one thing, that the Three Prefectures’ control over Zone 11 far surpassed what Lu Zixun and Xiong Kang had anticipated.
“Lord Xun, what’s wrong?”
Seeing the serious expression on Lu Zixun’s face, Tang Tianyu inquired.
“It’s nothing.
I just heard there were so incidents in Zone 11 recently and thought I’d ask you.”
After a pause, Lu Zixun smiled and said, “Go on and complete the handover.
And, by the way, get Ran You to buy two cups of that milk tea from last ti!”
Hearing that Lu Zixun was still so captivated by milk tea, a wry smile erged on Tang Tianyu’s face: “Got it.
I’ll have Ran You buy a few boxes to bring back.”
“Excellent, excellent!”
With his whiskers quivering several tis, Lu Zixun was in high spirits.
At this mont, there was only Tang Qinglan and Lu Zixun in the vehicle.
After hesitating for a mont, Tang Qinglan still ca to the cockpit and sat beside Lu Zixun.
Glancing up at Tang Qinglan and noticing her tense expression, Lu Zixun spoke indifferently, “What’s the matter?
Are you very nervous?”
“Mhm.”
Lips pressed tightly together, Tang Qinglan nodded her head.
It had been several years since she last saw her, and she wondered if Tang Rong would still recognize her.
If not, how was she going to speak to Tang Rong?
A whirlwind of emotions flooded her, leaving Tang Qinglan in a state of internal tension.
“Don’t worry, don’t worry.”
Yawning, Lu Zixun’s tail swished from side to side a few tis: “You’re now the logistics officer of the Demon Country.
This is a small scene; don’t be too nervous.”
While that’s what he said, Tang Qinglan couldn’t help but feel nervous, and she had no way to alleviate it.
Looking up at Tang Qinglan’s deanor, Lu Zixun narrowed his eyes and said lightly, “Don’t disgrace the Demon Country.”
At that mont, with thoughts of the Demon Country in her mind, the tension on Tang Qinglan’s face eased considerably.
She looked at Lu Zixun seriously and nodded: “I understand.”
For the Demon Clan, the established Demon Country represented their steadfast and unwavering faith.
It was like a ray of sunlight that appeared after a long ti spent in the darkness, warm and dazzling.
Anyone who dares to belittle the existence of the Demon Country will be besieged by its mbers.
Knowing this, Lu Zixun intentionally said so to ease Tang Qinglan’s inner tension.
Taking his cell phone out, Lu Zixun dialed Xiong Kang’s number, but this ti, no one answered.
He stuck his head out of the car window to check the sky, finding it was dusk in the afternoon, Xiong Kang must be busy.
After sending a ssage, Lu Zixun put his phone away.
“Later, I’m going to have dinner at my sister-in-law’s place, do you want to co over?”
Tang Tianyu and others, who had just completed the task handover, returned with smiles on their faces.
The reward for this task could cover their cultivation expenses for two months.
The generous amount made many envious, while others harbored ill intentions.
For example, the mont Lu Zixun stuck his head out a mont ago, soone captured it.
Lai Fan, who was contemplating how to extort Tang Tianyu and others, couldn’t help but sigh at his good fortune.
Just as Tang Tianyu and the others were about to drive towards Zone 7, Lai Fan blocked the way and asked in a ghostly tone, “Captain Tang, you might not know that lately, illegally bringing mbers of the Demon Clan into human gathering places is severely punishable by the Law Enforcent Team, right?”
Surprised by Lai Fan’s appearance, Tang Tianyu, who clearly didn’t know who he was, narrowed his eyes and asked, “Who are you?”
“Who I am is not important.
As soone who is currently on top of the world, a winner in life like Captain Tang, I’m just a nobody.”
Spreading his hands, Lai Fan shook his head, “I’m here to tell Captain Tang that if you don’t want to attract the Law Enforcent Team’s attention…”
He paused, then rubbed his index finger and thumb together, chuckling, “I’d ask for a little hush money.
Not too much, just a quarter of what you earned from this mission will do.”
Tang Tianyu understood Lai Fan’s intentions.
A mocking smile tugged at the corner of Tang Tianyu’s mouth, “Oh?
You’re really asking for a lot there.
I wonder why the Law Enforcent Team would severely punish us?”
Lai Fan, who had anticipated Tang Tianyu’s response, pulled out his phone and showed it off, “Just now, I saw a cat poking its head out from your car window.
Surely, it couldn’t be a household pet.”
As Chen Yue moved to snatch the phone away, Lai Fan shook his head, “How could I not have a backup of this?
Even if you destroy it, I can still produce it.
So…
It’s up to Captain Tang to decide whether you want to give the hush money.”
Right when Tang Tianyu was about to speak, the door of the truck was shattered by an Ice Chain.
Lu Zixun used his Spiritual Energy to bind Lai Fan and dragged him into the truck.
“Ah, Lord Xun is really hot-tempered, to be looking for death at such a young age.”
Chen Yue, with his arms crossed, shook his head in a pitying manner.
The group got on the truck and saw Lu Zixun staring at Lai Fan, not sure what he was doing.
The onlookers exchanged glances, their expressions strange, but they didn’t ask any questions.
Everyone got busy with their own things, Ran You placed two boxes of milk tea beside Lu Zixun.
“Paparazzi?”
At that mont, after opening a box of milk tea, Lu Zixun tossed a bottle to Ran You and started drinking on his own.
“I don’t understand what you’re saying, let go now!
Otherwise, I’ll call the Law Enforcent Team!”
Lai Fan, who was frantically struggling, roared at Lu Zixun.
Chen Yue, who was driving and witnessing soone daring to roar at Lu Zixun for the first ti, ntally applauded Lai Fan for his impressive audacity.
“If you shout again, I’ll freeze your throat and let you experience the charm of suffocating to death.”
Setting his milk tea aside, Lu Zixun asked indifferently, “Who sent you?”
Confused, Lai Fan was about to retort with defiance, but seeing Lu Zixun’s cold and rciless gaze, he imdiately cowed.
Cats were such bizarre creatures.
“No…
no one sent , I ca here on my own.”
