Chapter 148 They Picked All My Teeth Out
The commercial hype is not over yet.
"Now, not only have you two awakened as beings of destiny, but you have also made outstanding contributions in the battle of Yuanding City..."
I believe that under your leadership, the two families of Luzon will surely shine brightly like the rising sun in the future…
Chew, chew, chew...
At this point, Lü Fengxian had already started eating. It is said that one should eat and chat while seated. Wouldn't it be disrespectful to her if she didn't eat?
Song Yunxiang: "How about we skip the business talk and get straight to the point?"
"Are you in a hurry?" Lü Fengxian asked, glancing at him while munching on a large chicken leg.
"Let me introduce them first. Hong Yijing and Hong Yirou," Hong Yuxiao introduced the two female bodyguards behind him. "Although they are nominally my personal bodyguards, they grew up with me since childhood and are as close as sisters. They are one of the few people I can trust."
Both of you are welcome to speak freely without any reservations.
"Is it time for the introductions?" Lü Fengxian put down her chopsticks. "Xiaomeng, Timou, and Shenyue are all maids in my courtyard. As for the blind man and the lame man from before, they are all trusted confidants whom I can entrust with my life. Miss Hong, you can rest assured."
Following that, Song Yunxiang introduced his team.
"..."
Suddenly, all was silent.
Hong Yuxiao's mind was racing, and a bead of sweat rolled down her cheek.
"Although I can't accurately determine their cultivation levels, my intuition tells me that the two outside the door are definitely experts at the Heaven Rank or above, and the two from the Song family are about the same..."
And these maids are probably even stronger than Xiao Jing and Xiao Rou...
Such a level of cultivation would place someone in a high-ranking position in my Hong family, but in their society, they are merely servants and maids…
Those two families... are indeed more powerful than I imagined..."
"Since we're all on the same side..."
Before Song Yunxiang could finish speaking, Lü Fengxian spoke up.
“Miss Hong, let’s get straight to the point.” He finished the last bite of meat. “I need the power and intelligence network of your Hong Clan Chamber of Commerce.”
Hong Yuxiao: ? ? ? ?
He paused for a moment, then said, "You know that my Hong family is a family of merchants. As long as you can offer something tempting, I will naturally agree to whatever you want."
"Don't worry," Lü Fengxian nodded, "You'll definitely be satisfied with my offer."
"Oh? Mr. Lü, please go ahead."
“I’ve recently heard that the old patriarch [Hong Keji] is in dire straits. I suppose you’ve also been searching for the legendary longevity elixir, haven’t you?” Lü Fengxian smiled crookedly. “You wouldn’t want this thing to fall into the hands of your rivals, would you?”
As he spoke, he held a porcelain bottle in his hand.
"Mr. Lü, what do you mean?"
Meanwhile, on the other side…
Spring City of Xishui Kingdom.
The Huang family's house is located on a rugged mountain path.
"Urgent military report!"
"Urgent military report!"
A female soldier rushed in, flustered. "Sir! An urgent military report has arrived from the Green Hawk Army!"
At this moment, Sikong Jing, who was eating sunflower seeds, paused and asked, "Shall I excuse myself?"
"No need." Huang Miaoyin shook her head, then looked at the female soldier, "Speak."
"Princess Langhuan's ship lost contact in the Southern Wilderness. Before losing contact, she sent a message for help, saying that they were being ambushed in the heart of the Southern Wilderness and suspected that they had encountered a Primordial Star Soul General who could control lightning..."
“Southern Wilderness?” Huang Miaoyin’s eyes sharpened. “A Primordial Star Soul General who can control lightning.”
Could it be…”
……
“Mr. Lü, your bargaining chip…” Hong Yuxiao picked up the porcelain bottle, her beautiful eyes trembling, “This humble woman simply cannot refuse…”
Then she gave the following instructions:
"Make preparations. Tomorrow, at the Lu family's conferment banquet, I will present a generous gift on behalf of the Hong Clan Chamber of Commerce."
"Yes!"
The banquet ended, and everyone left.
Inside the exclusive elevator for the Lü family.
"Has everything been agreed upon, young master?" Zhao Hao asked.
"That's it."
"What do you mean? The Hong family's daughter has taken a liking to you and wants to find a husband for you?"
"What are you talking about!" Lü Fengxian glared. "Let's not even talk about that kind of thing. Even if we were, she'd be bringing her family fortune with her when she marries into the family, and I'd be expected to move in with her? That's highly unlikely..."
Ding…
The elevator reached the ground floor, and the group went to the lobby.
Beep—beep—
At this moment, Lü Fengxian's communication bracelet rang, and the word "妙" (meaning "wonderful") kept flashing.
"Little Phoenix Fairy, I've finally managed to get in touch with you."
"I was eating just now and I accidentally silenced my communication bracelet. I'm really sorry."
"Don't apologize yet, listen to me first!" Huang Miaoyin said anxiously. "A team from my Xishui Kingdom was attacked in the heart of the Southern Wilderness. The last message we received indicated that it was a Primordial Star Soul General who controls lightning. Was it your green-haired friend who did it?"
"It wasn't him; he went traveling to other continents."
"Is that so? This is troublesome..."
Is that team important?
"Yes, the missing team is from the Divine Machine Academy of my Xishui Kingdom, which was testing the next-generation mass-production machine. One of the researchers is Her Majesty the Empress's younger sister..."
If it was done by the Lower Domain Kingdom or the Sand Bandits of the Southern Wilderness, then this is troublesome…”
“Southern Wilderness Sand Bandits?” Lu Fengxian frowned, but she had no recollection of them.
He cursed inwardly, "Damn it, the comic hadn't even reached this point before I came!"
He paused for a moment, then asked, "Could it have been the Yellow Turban Army?"
Those who play with thunder are either Zhang Jiao or Lei Zhenzi; let's just guess one for now.
"So the Yellow Hat Gang was called the [Yellow Turban Army] in Tiandu?" Huang Miaoyin's eyes flickered. "I'm on my way to Yong'an City now. You'll come with me to the Southern Wilderness tomorrow."
"Let's talk about it after my reward is finished. Anyway, I have to go to the Southern Wilderness to take up my post."
"Is tomorrow your investiture banquet?" Huang Miaoyin's eyes flickered. "That makes sense. A peak Heavenly Realm cultivator should indeed follow ancient customs. Hmm, I'll prepare a congratulatory gift for you."
"Alright, remember to make it a grand affair; you're my official wife after all..."
As soon as the words left her mouth, Lü Fengxian regretted them and quickly covered her mouth.
"The Empress?" Huang Miaoyin frowned slightly. "What do you mean? You want to have a harem? Are you trying to become the emperor?!"
He paused for a moment, then said, "We'll talk about that when you're better than me. I won't allow it now!"
"We'll talk about other things when we meet."
Pash—
Communication ends.
Bang bang! !
Lü Fengxian suddenly gave herself several large B-cups.
"Why does my mouth 'leak' when I speak?"
Immediately afterwards, another communication came in, this time from Li Changye.
"Brother Lü, I've completed all the tasks you assigned me." He was carrying Wan Qixiang, who looked like a dead dog. "I've wiped them all out, and they're on their way to the Lü family now."
He paused for a moment, then said, "Should we watch them wait for you to come back, or throw them in the dungeon first?"
"You throw them in the dungeon, then watch over them until I get back. Make sure you knock all their teeth out to prevent them from committing suicide by poison. None of them are allowed to die before I return, understand?"
"Understood." Li Changye nodded, then promptly knocked out all of Wan Qixiang's teeth.
"Yes, that's it. Keep up the good work."
