Xiang Yu looked at Ryan with a peculiar gaze, "Why are you here again? Do you have a voyeuristic tendency?"
Ryan coughed a few tis before saying, "No, I have sothing to discuss with you. Let’s talk inside."
The lady in the room had already woken up. Seeing Ryan co in, she was initially flustered, but as she realized she was lying naked on Xiang Yu’s bed, she felt relieved. Although nothing had occurred between her and Xiang Yu, outsiders wouldn’t see it that way.
"What’s up, spill it. I need to hit the gym," Xiang Yu said.
"I ntioned it yesterday, I hope you can represent to et the new head of the nghu rcenary Corps," Ryan said.
"Alright, under what identity should I et him?" Xiang Yu asked.
Ryan thought for a mont and said, "Deputy Captain of the Allied Forces, Third Division."
"Which division are you in charge of?" the Xiang Yu asked casually.
"I’m the commander of the Third Division," Ryan replied.
Xiang Yu pondered for a mont, "Is this deputy captain role significant?"
"I have five divisions under , you tell if it’s significant," Ryan said with a smile.
Xiang Yu, hearing this, finally smiled, "Great, I’ll go et Xia Cheng now. How many people are you sending with ?"
"Ten," Ryan said.
After finalizing their plan, Xiang Yu got into the car and headed out.
While exiting Luang Feng Mountain, Ryan didn’t cover Xiang Yu’s eyes but let him see the way in.
On their way out, they passed through nurous checkpoints, which showed the tight security in Luang Feng Mountain.
It was practically a large-scale military base, a rarity even in the ****.
Xiang Yu understood that Ryan was sending him a ssage—he fully trusted Xiang Yu and hoped he could lend a hand.
Going to et Xia Cheng was considered the first task Xiang Yu did for Ryan.
Ryan also wanted to take this opportunity to test Xiang Yu’s capacity to handle important affairs.
Outside, breathing in the fresh mountain air and basking in the warm sun, Xiang Yu found the experience invigorating.
"Drive slowly," Xiang Yu said as he lay back.
The driver belonged to Ryan’s trusted aide unit, responsible for monitoring Xiang Yu and providing service to him.
"Do you know the way to the nghu rcenary Corps?" Xiang Yu asked casually.
"We’ve been there, we know the way, rest assured," the driver replied straightforwardly.
"Alright, I’ll take a nap. Wake when we arrive," Xiang Yu said before reclining in the back seat and falling asleep.
anwhile, in Tianlong District, Xiao Xuan urgently called Wu Jing and Tie Zhuzi over.
"There’s a signal from Bro, look," Xiao Xuan said, a bit excited, pointing at an instrunt.
Tie Zhuzi nearly jumped for joy upon seeing it, then patted Xiao Xuan’s shoulder and said, "Good thing we listened to you and didn’t act rashly, otherwise we might have ssed up Bro Yu’s plan."
Xiao Xuan was speechless; Tie Zhuzi didn’t listen to him voluntarily—he was tied up there by them.
"Everyone, don’t act rashly yet. I’ll first send soone to investigate this signal and find a way to contact Bro Yu," Wu Jing analyzed.
"I’ll go myself, I don’t trust others," Xiao Xuan said.
Wu Jing nodded, "Alright, you go investigate and strive to reach Bro Yu."
Xiao Xuan nodded, "Don’t worry." He turned to Tie Zhuzi, "Zhuzi, keep an eye on everything. Contact as soon as anything happens."
"Don’t worry, with here, Bro Yu won’t be lost," Tie Zhuzi said happily.
Finally having news of Xiang Yu, Tie Zhuzi was inexplicably excited.
Just as Xiao Xuan was preparing to head out to track Xiang Yu, a car stopped outside the district, with military plates indicating it was from Rumus.
Wu Jing had soone invite him inside.
Tie Zhuzi frowned and asked, "What are you doing here again?"
Rumus had an apologetic look on his face as he said, "We’re planning to move tonight..."
He knew Xiang Yu hadn’t returned and wanted to say comforting words, but didn’t know how.
After hearing this, Xiao Xuan’s eyes turned cold, "You plan to act before my brother returns? Have you considered his safety?"
Tie Zhuzi was even angrier, moving directly in front of Rumus, shouting, "You ungrateful bunch, Bro Yu risked his life to give you information, and this is how you treat us, always harping on about virtue and righteousness, striving tirelessly for the people’s happiness and safety, is that all nonsense?"
Rumus’s face turned red with sha at Tie Zhuzi’s words. He didn’t want to launch an attack now, but orders were orders, and he had no say.
"Sorry, please prepare yourselves ntally," Rumus said, then turned to leave.
"Stop," Tie Zhuzi, still angry, attempted to stop him.
"Zhuzi," Wu Jing quickly held Tie Zhuzi back, signaling him to calm down.
Wu Jing had served in the military before and understood Rumus’ predicant. Many things were beyond his control.
"The fact that he ca in person to inform us speaks to his genuine nature," Wu Jing said, patting Tie Zhuzi’s shoulder. He knew Rumus had leaked information, indicating a complete trust in them.
Tie Zhuzi also understood Rumus’s difficulty but still felt a knot in his stomach.
Xiang Yu went into danger to gather intel for them, yet they ignored his life and death in favor of an attack.
"Xiao Xuan, quickly find Bro Yu and inform him of this situation so he can be ntally prepared," Wu Jing urged.
Xiao Xuan quickly nodded and proceeded to leave.
Tie Zhuzi remained by the instrunts, his eyes fixed intently on the screen. Seeing the small red dot moving continuously, it was as if he was looking at Xiang Yu himself.
Wu Jing also went out, needing to gather his brothers. The situation was complicated, and with uncertainty looming over the night’s events, he had to be fully prepared.
At a certain **** base, a yellow-haired bald man nervously made a phone call.
"They already know about you in Luang Feng Mountain and have precisely located your hideout. Didn’t I say there was a mole? But you ignored it," Keru said tensely.
"When are they going to move?" on the other end, the person was calm, none other than Ryan.
"Tonight," Keru answered in a huff.
"That fast?" Ryan expressed mild surprise.
"Yes, it’s incredibly urgent. You’d better report the situation here to Commander Liao. The key is to eliminate our internal mole, or we’re heading towards trouble," Keru cald slightly, advising.
"Don’t worry, I have plans," Ryan replied.
Keru despised Ryan’s confident deanor, unsure if he was genuinely oblivious or acting. At this point, claiming to have plans seed absurd.
Feeling irritable, he hung up the phone in frustration...
