Chapter 707: Chapter 571, Big Sister Listens to You Chapter 707: Chapter 571, Big Sister Listens to You (In the last chapter, the ending was changed, brothers who are following the story, please take another look.)

Blood gushed out, staining the garnt crimson in the blink of an eye.

Bella clutched her throat and fell to the ground, her gaze fixed ahead.

As if to morize everyone’s faces.

To imprint them firmly in her mind.

Gradually, her struggles grew weaker, and she lay on the ground without a sound.

Among the robed figures, Babuzzi watched the corpse lying in a pool of blood, his pupils slightly constricting.

Wu Heng!

In her dying monts, she ntioned Wu Heng.

The one affiliated with Philippa?

Was it not just who was sent here?

Did Wu Heng also plant a spy?

Or did this woman know him?

Damn it, how could a small mountain village in the depths of the Yeko Kingdom be involved with him again.

But it was all too late.

This woman was foolish enough to try to send a ssage under the surveillance of a level 18 professional, how could she possibly survive.

“Cut the tongue out of the body and hang it at the village gate, the rest of you prepare, we will depart according to plan,” said the lead robed figure.

The others responded and began to act.

Babuzzi quickly approached the body, and after another person cut out the tongue,

they worked together to hang the body from the crossbeam at the village gate.

A breeze swept by.

The body swayed slightly, and fresh blood dripped steadily to the ground.

All the robed figures gathered and, after disguising themselves,

left toward the west.

…

City Lord’s Mansion, study.

Wu Heng chatted with two ghosts for a while.

A faint knock on the door could be heard from outside, along with Mini’s voice, “Master, are you there? Mrs. Millicent has arrived.”

“Got it, I’ll be right there.”

Wu Heng gestured to the two ghosts to go about their business and then walked out the door with Mini, heading downstairs.

Descending to the first floor,

he saw Millicent in a light blue dress, silently waiting with a cup of tea in her hands.

Upon seeing Wu Heng co down, Millicent rose and curtsied, “My lord!”

Wu Heng nodded, “Sit.”

Millicent took her seat again and spoke softly, “My lord, today I’ve collected so information that might be useful, so I’ve co to report to you.”

“What information?”

Millicent took out a notebook, quickly flipped through it, and said, “Today, there were tavern patrons, many of them from Netalee City, they said that the City Lord’s Guard Team and the garrison commanders’ troops have co to blows, corpses litter the city, shops are being looted, and any man caught is forcibly conscripted into the army.”

Wu Heng’s eyebrows rose; he was sowhat surprised by this piece of intelligence, yet it was within his expectations.

Netalee City had been in chaos for so ti.

The last issue of the newspaper had already made it known that there had been fighting within Netalee City, with plus of thick smoke visible even from the sea.

It was a warning to so caravans not to venture that way.

Now, it seed, the situation was more serious than imagined.

The clashes between the City Lord’s Mansion and the garrison were like the police engaging in a firefight with the military in the city.

“Is there any other news?”

Millicent glanced at her notebook again and said, “They also said that there are so sect people involved.”

Sect people…

This reminded Wu Heng of the Church of Divine Punishnt.

The Protective Church Witch defeated by him had left by boat heading in the direction of the Yeko Kingdom.

She couldn’t be involved, could she?

“Did they ntion which sect?”

“No! By their account, they couldn’t be sure which sect it was,” answered Millicent.

Wu Heng nodded and continued to inquire, “Anything else?”

“No, those are the main things.”

“You continue to pay attention to the outside news, and be careful not to talk about it,” he instructed.

“Yes, my lord!”

After finishing the discussion about intelligence, Wu Heng then asked, “Has Philippa set sail?”

“Yes, she left yesterday afternoon,” Millicent answered, “She said she was going to pick up the person you arranged.”

“No problem, it’s not a combat mission, just picking soone up. She’ll be back in a couple of days.”

“That’s what Philippa should do.”

Wu Heng glanced at the ti and continued, “It’s getting late, why don’t you stay for dinner?”

“This…”

“Mini prepared a lavish al today. Stay and eat, and I’ll have Skeleton take you back afterward,” Wu Heng said with a smile.

“Thank you, my lord.”

The two sat in the living room for a while.

Soon, Mini ca over to inform them that dinner was ready.

The two got up and went to the dining room to eat together.

…

“Big sister, we’ve been here for over a week now,” said the brawny man softly under the bright streetlights of the Central District.

Mackintosh, gazing at the frolicking children under the streetlights, sighed softly, “Gold and Silver Island has changed so much, it’s beco quite unfamiliar.”

“Big sister, Island Lord Wu Heng was so capable even when he was young. He must be doing a better job governing the island than soone like ‘Occam’,” the younger brother said.

The changes on the island were evident right before their eyes.

The Gold and Silver Island of the past and the present seed to be two completely different places.

“Indeed, his experiences without having changed his job were so rich, far stronger than our adventures at sea,” Mackintosh said with a smile.

The younger brother hesitated but then said, “Big sister, we’ve investigated everything we need to. It’s ti for you to make a decision.”

Mackintosh looked up at him, “Do you think we’re going to stay?”

“Big sister, to be honest, please don’t get angry,” the younger brother hesitated and then said softly, “If you wanted to leave, we would have left already.”

Mackintosh’s brows shot up.

The younger brother quickly corrected himself, “You just wanted to look around the island, not stay.”

Mackintosh took a deep breath and said, “I’ll think about it so more. Tomorrow, we either leave or we go to him and see if he can offer us so position.”

“As you say.”

…

On the next day, at the city hall.

Wu Heng got out of the car with Skeleton at the entrance and went straight into the city hall.

It wasn’t long after breakfast.

Andre Willow had arranged for people to go to the Island Lord’s Mansion, ntioning that a few rchants wanted to see him.

He had scheduled the eting in the conference room at the city hall.

As he was walking down the corridor leading to the conference room.

Andre Willow ca out from a side room, approached quietly and said, “Master, there are three people. They want to order more newspapers to sell outside the island.”

“Outside the island?”

“Yes, they specifically ant outside the island,” Andre Willow confird with certainty.

“Let’s go then, take to see them.”

The two of them made their way to the conference room.

They opened the door and walked in.

Inside the room sat three people, two n and one woman.

Their attire was different, but they all appeared to be wearing rather fine clothes, indicating their significant status.

All three first glanced at Andre Willow, then turned their attention to Wu Heng.

They imdiately stood up and began to greet him in turn.

“Representative of the Stag Caravan, at your service, Island Lord.”

“Lai Comrce Guild, at your service, Island Lord.”

“Good afternoon, Island Lord. I am from the Point Star Caravan.”

Wu Heng had so recollection of the Stag Caravan and Lai Comrce Guild.

They must have signed their nas on the recomndation letter when he beca the Island Lord.

He didn’t rember much about the Point Star Caravan, but since they ca together, they should also be on the list.

Wu Heng nodded, “Take a seat.”

Once seated, Wu Heng, with Andre Willow by his side, also sat down across from them.

The representative from the Stag Caravan spoke, “Island Lord, I’ll get straight to the point. The newspaper has been very successful on the island. We ca here to ask if you had any plans to sell it in other places outside the island. If you do, we would like to collaborate with you.”

They noticed the popularity of the newspaper on the island and hence ca up with the idea of selling it.

Wu Heng glanced at them and said, “You must have read the newspaper. By the ti you get the information out, it will be outdated, and the newspaper will lose its value.”
