Chapter 144 Vicious
On the other side, in the northwest district of Yong'an City.
Inside the dilapidated slum, in the drafty alleyways.
Gongsun Zhanzhan and her group, escorted by the front and rear guards of the Shenshou Gang, walked into a deep alley. A blond beggar, hiding around a corner, gave an "OK" sign.
The buck-toothed beggar nodded calmly and also made an "OK" gesture.
“Boss, don’t worry, there’s a branch of our Gang just across West Street,” the buck-toothed beggar turned around, “once we get there we’ll take you by airship to the location where those targets are meeting!”
"Okay, I understand." Gongsun Zhanzhan pretended to be aloof.
Buzz~ Buzz~
Just then, her communication bracelet rang, and her heart skipped a beat. "Is that Master?"
"cough…"
As she coughed softly, the guards quickly changed formation, guarding the four corners.
"You've been exposed! It's a trap! The Military Command wants to use your life to stir up trouble!"
Don't fight them, run!
The master's voice was loud, as if he was deliberately trying to betray his lovely apprentice. He could have easily reminded him in a softer voice, but instead, he startled the already treacherous apprentice, who had already betrayed him.
In this master's eyes, Gongsun Zhanzhan was probably nothing more than bait, a pawn to be discarded.
"Ah? What!"
Before Gongsun Zhanzhan could react, her master hung up on his own.
Startled, the troop leaders immediately stopped their drill, their eyes flashing with menacing light. They spread out in two groups, one in front and one behind, blocking Gongsun Zhanzhan and her group in the middle.
"My life? Oh my god..." Gongsun Zhanzhan gritted her teeth, "A pincer attack formation... I was careless... These damned beggars dared to deceive this princess..."
"Ah Xiang, Ah Xing, protect me!" She channeled her soul power and leaped onto the high wall. "Ah Qiu, Ah Lan, stay behind and cover our retreat!"
"Yes!"
The four guards quickly divided up their tasks.
Oh no! The fat sheep has escaped!
"Quick, after them!"
Seeing this, the buck-toothed beggar took off running as fast as he could, not daring to delay at all.
Beep, beep, beep…
While running, he contacted the Milun combat team, "Boss, boss, that woman saw through us and suddenly ran away, what do we do?!"
"Yes, yes..."
I understand... Don't worry...!
We've already administered the medicine..."
……
at the same time…
Tiandu Kingdom, on the border of the Eastern Continent…
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
The Straw Hat Girls team sped through the air in their hover shuttles when suddenly a pop-up window appeared in front of them. It was Gongsun Zhanzhan's master.
"?!" The woman in the raincoat was taken aback. "Senior Sister Dongsi?"
“My people have been exposed,” Dong Si said without any change in tone. “The original plan to use the Gongsun family to expose the Military Warfare Division’s inhumane war plan and wage a propaganda war has failed.”
The Military Command set a trap, intending to incite hatred between Mi Lun (a conservative faction) and the Tian Du Kingdom by using the lives of members of the Gongsun family.
The woman in the raincoat nodded. "Understood. It will take our team at least 30 hours to get to Yong'an City."
“Okay,” Dong Si nodded expressionlessly, her tone still indifferent. “If Plan A is thwarted, then execute Plan B: wipe out the Gongsun family on the spot and frame the Mi Lun Army.”
The "Gongsun family members" she mentioned were none other than her own apprentice, Gongsun Zhanzhan.
Raincoat Girl: "..."
He remained silent for a moment, looking at the girl in the pop-up window, and sighed.
"…receive."
at the same time.
Above the gates of Yong'an City, an entire fleet was already on high alert, not to welcome any distinguished guests, but to block Taiyuan from entering the city.
Lü Fengxian once said, "Yong'an City does not welcome the scoundrel Taiyuan, except for A-San."
On the main ship, in the command room.
“Uncle, isn’t it wrong of you to mobilize the [Trap Camp] without authorization?” Lü Qingning leaned on her command sword and pressed her earpiece with her other hand. “The court’s people are down there. It would be bad if they went back and spread rumors.”
At this time, Lü Fengxian was still on a rooftop on West Street.
"Lao Song, I have to go now, my niece is looking for me."
After saying that, he switched to Lü Qingning's channel on his own.
"Don't worry about the imperial court. Ever since that dog emperor exiled me to the southern wilderness, the imperial court's face has lost its power in our family. If he has the guts, let him send troops to wipe me out. He's a coward."
He paused, then added, "Also, didn't I ask Ye Lingyun to deliver the [Transformation Talisman] to you? Make sure all ships use it, so that even if the imperial court discovers it, they won't be able to trace it back to you."
Oh, and remember, it's 'stop,' not 'shoot down.' At least this Taiyuan Action Team can't be shot down. As for any other action teams, if they dare to set foot in Yong'an City, bomb them to death!"
"I remember they practiced universal love and non-aggression, didn't they?" Lü Qingning asked doubtfully. "Do we really need to be so hostile towards Taiyuan? I don't think so..."
"What a load of rubbish! [Universal love and non-aggression] is a malignant tumor hindering the development of the Eastern Continent!"
As she spoke, Lü Fengxian's tone grew increasingly angry, "Whether it's Milun, Xishui, or Tiandu, as long as they show any signs of growth, they will be nipped in the bud by Taiyuan."
It's all because of the existence of these scoundrels that the reunification of the Eastern Continent has been delayed. Now, the three kingdoms stand side by side, fighting openly and covertly everywhere. What's the point of maintaining this false balance?
They were even behind the scenes driving the division of the Eastern Continent—a bunch of malignant tumors and festering sores that we want to kill them!
Taiyuan's existence is meaningless!
"The day I attain sainthood will be the day Taiyuan is destroyed."
"I understand, Uncle."
Having said that, Lü Qingning knew that the decision was made, so she didn't ask any more questions, hung up the phone, and issued the orders to each ship.
……
Beneath the Lü mansion, in a brightly lit dungeon.
open eyes!!
A corpse opened its eyes, emitting an eerie light. Blood-red patterns covered its entire body, and its shape and appearance gradually distorted until it transformed into the appearance of another person.
“Thankfully, we left a port on Xun Xia’s corpse,” he slowly stood up, brushing the dust off his clothes, “so we were able to upload this edited consciousness data. What should we call it?”
Previously, Lü Fengxian thought it was too unsightly to keep the corpse in the system space, so she took it out. After thinking it over, she decided to put it in the dungeon, since she couldn't very well put it in her bedroom.
He stroked his chin, deep in thought.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he thought of a certain prime minister.
"Let's call him...Xiahou Cao!"
From this moment on, he had an extra long-term pseudonym, an pseudonym used to "take the blame," and a special pseudonym that would be frequently active.
"Hehehe, I have a feeling I could do some naughty things with this identity..."
Xiahou Cao paused for a moment, then said, "System, help me exchange for a universal lock pick."
[Ding, redemption successful.]
Soon, he left the Lü family, mounted the Emperor Steed and headed straight for West Street. His speed was incredibly fast, and he arrived in front of Lü Fengxian almost instantly.
"Hey, you're here?"
"coming."
At this moment, the SkyNet system suddenly appeared.
【Host, this system also wants a [container], is that okay? I'm going crazy watching you all eat and drink so well every day, I really want to know what they taste like...】
The Little Dragon Girl Skynet System rubbed its hands together in mid-air and stomped its delicate little jade feet.
“Alright,” Lü Fengxian nodded. “We happen to have a female spy who has infiltrated my Lü family. Since she’s already guilty of a capital offense, we’ll use her as a [container] for you.”
[Hehe, thank you, host.]
P.S.: Please, godparents, give me lots of support! Don't let me fail...
