Chapter 607: 593
At this ti, Rong’er, who had gone out for a mont, ca back with a puzzled smile on her face.
Li Mo asked, “Who is this girl?”
“She’s Wan Guangde’s daughter, Wan Danrong.” Ye Chen continued, “She’s one of my subordinates, Li Mo.”
The two greeted each other briefly.
Li Mo smiled and thought to himself, another pretty girl. He asked, “I heard you beca Wan Guangde’s daughter’s master?”
“Indeed, I am her master.”
“Why didn’t you let us know you were in Wanshou City? You really had us worried.”
Rong’er sat down nearby and said, “When I first t him, he was a holess vagabond. He planned to sleep in a broken temple with beggars at night. His ragged beard made him look like a middle-aged man, and he reeked of alcohol.”
Li Mo chuckled at this and said, “I’m sure it was your guidance that helped him back on the right path.”
Rong’er laughed lightly.
Ye Chen said, “Weren’t you hungry? Hurry up and eat.” He pushed all the delicious food towards him.
Wan Guangcai and Zhong Yao were at another table.
Li Mo laughed, “There must have been quite a few interesting things happening, right?”
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen coldly replied, “Interesting? If it were up to , none of this would have happened.”
Understanding Ye Chen’s aning, Li Mo said, “Don’t worry, girl. We will be your family in the future.”
Looking over at them, Wan Danrong added, “So people wouldn’t even let us join the New City Sect.”
“Who? If you want to join the New City Sect, we would be more than happy.” After saying this, Li Mo realized he had said sothing wrong.
Ye Chen said, “Just eat, we need to leave this inn soon. Who knows if the Third Demon or the No. One Heroes will pass by.”
Li Mo nodded slightly, a sigh of relief.
Ye Chen asked, “Why did you bring a horse car when you ca to find ?” He found it odd that there was a horse car following them.
Li Mo smiled, “We bumped into it on the way here this morning.”
“On the way here? Did it contain a beautiful woman?”
“Indeed, a bad woman you also know.”
“I know her?” Ye Chen found it hard to believe.
“Hong Ying.”
“Hong Ying! Yang Jing’s beloved.”
“Yes, we found her in a forest this morning. She is still unconscious, seems to have encountered sothing.”
“Why did you bring her back?”
“I’m not exactly sure what to do, she is Yang Jing’s beloved after all, she might be of so use, so I brought her back.”
“Do you plan to use her to pressurize Yang Jing?”
“Would that work?” Li Mo asked.
Wan Guangcai ca over and said, “Ye Chen, we are ready, we can leave at any ti.”
“You’d better send her back, carrying such a burden, aren’t we already a big enough target?” Ye Chen said.
“Send her back? Do you want our people to send Hong Ying back?” Li Mo asked.
“What, do you want to keep her as a wife?”
“Wouldn’t it be good to use her to threaten Yang Jing in the future?” Li Mo rembered that Ye Chen had previously used this tactic against Yang Jing.
“I’m afraid if the threat doesn’t work, it might provoke Yang Jing. Now we’re in a dangerous place, carrying such a burden, is it fun?”
Li Mo thought this made so sense.
Wan Guangcai asked, “What are you sending back?”
Li Mo said, “This morning we found a horse car in the woods. There was a unconscious girl in it, we know her, her na is Hong Ying. We had captured her once before, so I brought her back. My Sect Leader wants
to send her back, but I’m afraid it might endanger our people.”
Wan Guangcai said, “Are you sending her back to Yang Jing?”
“The Sect Leader says we’re already in a lot of trouble and carrying an extra burden makes it even more inconvenient to move.”
Wan Guangcai said, “If you want to send her back, I do have a way.”
Li Mo looked at him, “Manor Master Wan, you have a way?”
“In Ghost City, I have a friend nad Shi Mu. Since Yang Jing beca the master of Ghost City, Shi Mu brought his people to join the No. One Heroes. I can have Zhong Yao deliver her to Shi Mu, who can then give her back to Yang Jing. Zhong Yao and Shi Mu are also friends.”
After hearing this, Li Mo laughed, “If that’s the case, it’d be great, though it does benefit Yang Jing.”
“Yang Jing’s beloved, if Shi Mu sends her back, that’s definitely a big rit. Many small leaders in Ghost City have joined the No. One Heroes, but they haven’t caught Yang Jing’s eye, as Shi Mu still wants to make a na for himself in the No. One Heroes, he’d definitely be extrely grateful to us.”
“Alright, then we’ll have to trouble you.”
“What trouble is it? Just a piece of cake.”
Ye Chen took a sip of tea, let Wan Guangcai sit down, and asked with a smile, “Is this friend of yours a new mber of the No. One Heroes?”
“Yes, our Wan Residence does business with Ghost City. He is a business associate, but now that Yang Jing has beco the city lord of Ghost City, he had to side with Yang Jing to survive. Otherwise, he might be in danger. It was unavoidable.”
Ye Chen suddenly took interest and asked, “Second Manor Master, could this friend of yours help us?”
“Help you?” Wan Guangcai asked, puzzled.
Li Mo imdiately understood Ye Chen’s intentions and said, “Yes, if we had a man in the No. One Heroes to provide us with information, it would be much easier for us to understand them in the future.”
Wan Guangcai imdiately grasped the idea and replied, “I can try, but I can’t guarantee success.”
Ye Chen said, “If he wants silver, we can give him whatever terms he demands.”
Wan Guangcai replied, “No need, Shi Mu has long wanted to join the New City Sect. He is just afraid that he might not be good enough for you. Their desperation forced them to join the No. One Heroes.”
Upon hearing this, Li Mo got excited and said, “That would be fantastic.”
“What kind of person is he?” asked Ye Chen.
“Quite a righteous man, he always repays his debts.”
“Good.”
Wan Guangcai said, “I’ll write a letter then let Zhong Yao deliver it.”
“Okay, let him na his terms.” It would be excellent to have soone within the No. One Heroes providing them with information.
Wan Guangcai quickly wrote a letter, gave it to Zhong Yao, and sent him with their carriage to Ghost City to find Shi Mu.
Ye Chen then took Wan Guangcai to find Can Mo and the others.
Previously, on the sa night Er Gui and Luo Hai had a big fight.
Ming Bei had been up to sothing as well. He had learned that Hong Ying, who Yang Jing cherished, was returning to Ghost City that night.
Yuan nhai had ordered Ming Bei to capture Hong Ying midway.
Yuan nhai aid to force Yang Jing into action by setting a trap to wipe out his people.
Yuan nhai knew how important Hong Ying was to Yang Jing. If they captured Hong Ying, it would undoubtedly infuriate Yang Jing. Yang Jing might lead his people to attack Bishui City with Yuan nhai’s people secretly stationed nearby.
However, Ming Bei didn’t anticipate that when they were about to succeed in capturing Hong Ying, they would run into Jue Ming. Jue Ming had brought a large crowd with him, and the two groups clashed in chaos. Winged Dragons and mutant beasts charged everywhere, fireballs flew chaotically, plunging everything into disorder.
Those escorting Hong Ying were dispersed. Hong Ying, who was in the carriage, was knocked unconscious and disappeared into the forest.
San Gui had been the one escorting Hong Ying.
Both San Gui and Jue Ming assud Hong Ying had been captured by Ming Bei’s n.
Yang Jing was livid, screaming, “Those bastards, daring to lay a hand on my woman!” His rage was out of control.
San Gui said, “Ming Bei’s n were well-prepared, they ambushed us en route, suddenly attacked, and scattered us. If it hadn’t been for Jue Ming’s tily arrival, we would have been completely encircled. Unfortunately, we failed to protect the mistress. She must have been captured by Ming Bei.”
Yang Jing’s eyes bulged like peaches.
The people behind him shouted, “We can’t just let them off the hook. They don’t take us seriously anymore. If we act as if nothing has happened, they would beco increasingly brazen and we would just beco their victims.”
“But if we attack, the mistress might be in danger.” Shi Mu pointed out.
San Gui asked, “What if they use the new mistress to threaten us?”
Yang Jing was at a loss for words and asked, “Where are Gui Lang and Er Gui?”
Jue Ming said, “Last night, Er Gui fought with Luo Hai, who had trespassed in their territory.”
“These people are becoming more and more disrespectful to us. If we swallow this, even when the new mistress is captured, where do we finally draw the line?” San Gui declared.
Yang Jing bellowed, “Enough, Jue Ming, gather the n for . If those bastards don’t release Hong Ying, I’ll make sure they don’t see tomorrow’s sunrise.”
Jue Ming knew Yang Jing was entirely enraged, so he imdiately started gathering the n.
Gui Lang and Er Gui ca in.
Gui Lang was unaware of the incident and learned about it from Jue Ming.
The two hurried in to see Yang Jing.
Er Gui imdiately said, “I told you these guys were nothing good. See? I was right! Tolerate? Fuck tolerance. It’s clearly intolerable. If they took her so easily and we did nothing about it, who wouldn’t dare to capture any of our wives in the future?”
Everyone knew Er Gui had had a great fight with Luo Hai the night before, annihilating many of Luo Hai’s n.
Er Gui continued, “If we don’t fight back, they’ll think we are cowards. Trust , if we keep tolerating, they’ll push even harder. We can’t know whose wife they’ll capture next. If they can take the leader’s wife so easily and we stand by apathetically, they wouldn’t think twice about whose wife they can or cannot take in the future.”
Completely infuriated, Yang Jing bellowed, “Enough, prepare for battle. If anyone tries to persuade
otherwise today, they’re done for.”
Gui Lang dared not say anything more.
Yang Jing ordered, “Jue Ming, you and Shi Mu stay behind and guard Ghost City; Gui Lang, you and I will lead the main force. If they don’t release Hong Ying, I’ll attack Bishui City.”
Jue Ming and Gui Lang both nodded.
Er Gui said, “That’s what we should’ve done a long ti ago. These bastards are all bark and no bite. I fought them last night and saw for myself, it’s all show. If I’d had a few more n with
last night, they wouldn’t have been able to leave.”
The people below hollered, “Enough with the pretense, attack Bishui City!”
If Yang Jing did nothing and continued to be manipulated, the Third Demon would eventually swallow them. He had to strike. All his n were watching him closely. If he didn’t do anything now, he had no idea how to lead his team in the future.
