Monarch Night

Thinking about it, it seems feasible, yet not feasible.

Because the female stewards in the Guardian Hall are quite weak, I'm afraid they're the ones who are always hung up and beaten... that definitely won't work.

The Starlight Master shook his head, then nodded, with a pensive look on his face.

In a short while, Zhao Wushang, Zheng Yunqi, Zhou Mei'er, Wu Lianlian, and about a dozen others came in.

Tian Wanqing, also a squad leader, entered with an elegant demeanor, dressed in white with a jade flute at his waist, full of charm.

Everyone laughed together.

Tian Wanqing turned red and repeatedly clasped his hands, bowing: "Let's start the meeting, let's start... "

The Starlight Master coughed and said, "Wanqing."

"At your service."

"Hmm, where did you buy your underwear? The material looks nice. The color is pretty good too." The Starlight Master said something that almost raised the laughter enough to lift the roof of the hall.

"Chief... please spare me." Tian Wanqing said, pleading.

"You're spared."

The Starlight Master was magnanimous, and Tian Wanqing expressed his gratitude repeatedly.

"Let's talk about business."

"Currently, the longest-running escort service has twenty-two assignments, with eighteen expected back today. The remaining four might return tonight or by midnight; in five consecutive days, we've accepted three hundred seventy-two assignments, and summarizing these five days, the income is around 1.52 million taels, and it's expected to break through two million in the next five days."

"Very good. No trouble on the road?"

"There was some trouble, but relatively minor. After all, the Guardians and Protectors are constantly patrolling, wiping out nearly all powerful thieves; as for the larger bandits, we've paid them a visit, so there shouldn't be any problems."

"That's good."

"Now, almost no one dares to rob the Worldwide Escort Agency's escorts; those three organizations that tried to target us were supposedly wiped out by a mysterious expert, and we retrieved their possessions, making a huge profit after compensations."

Zheng Yunqi smiled rather modestly.

"A mysterious expert?"

The Starlight Master widened his eyes, remembering that those organizations were places even he, as the Chief, dared not visit, and was planning to report to the Yixin Sect for their intervention, but they were already wiped out?

"Yes, people sent by the family. They wiped out those people and left immediately."

Zheng Yunqi said.

"Well done!"

The Starlight Master praised highly.

Increasingly feeling that establishing this Escort Agency was indeed the wisest decision.

Just ask, such an agency that can navigate both the black and white worlds, who else but me could establish it?

Dare to intercept our escorts?

The Guardians won't spare you, our Escort Agency won't spare you, the Yixin Sect won't spare you, and neither will the Weiwo Sect Headquarters, with so many powerful Shi Families, they won't spare you either!

Are you afraid or not?

What kind of underground organization, can be so bold?

"Next, there's the matter of dark investigation and inspection."

Fang Che frowned and said, "Has your family sent any news?"

"We've been urging them, but the family truly knows nothing specific, only that the dark inspection team supposedly set out half a month ago."

Zheng Yunqi was also frustrated.

Completely unable to find any information.

And totally unaware of where the first inspection stop would be.

"Half a month... "

The Starlight Master was also frustrated.

Is the Weiwo Sect always so slow in doing things?

The Divine Attribute Metal and Golden Vein Fruit promised by Yan Beihan haven't been delivered yet, and it's been over a month and a half.

As for these inspectors, it's also been half a month, are you crawling on the ground to get here?

Can't you use your movement technique to hasten your pace?

The distance might be far for an ordinary person, but for the Weiwo Sect responsible for the inspection, surely they'd have some standing, their strength can't be low?

For experts like this, would it really take half a month to travel?

"Under normal circumstances, it should take about ten days to get here, even without hurrying the journey."

Zheng Yunqi said.

"What about you?"

"For us, rushing at full speed day and night, we could reach Xin Chu Country in three days, and then from Xin Chu to the headquarters, it'd take about eight to twelve days."

Fang Che vaguely felt something was off.

They should have arrived by now.

...

He guessed correctly.

The dark inspection team from the Weiwo Sect Headquarters had actually already arrived outside Baiyun State City, but they received a last-minute directive to await someone to take charge.

So they've been waiting outside the city.

This is a specialized inspection team, each one extremely cautious.

And they are familiar faces long accustomed to traveling between here and there, their identities are solidly established, able to withstand any scrutiny.

None of them are weak, but they'd rather slowly wait outside the city than come in and find an inn to stay at.

Before the new leader arrives, they won't move.

What if something unexpected happens?

When the new leader arrives, whatever the leader says goes, if the leader says enter the city, they enter the city, and any issues would be for the higher-ups to handle.

...

The Weiwo Sect's inspection team hadn't yet arrived, and the Worldwide Escort Agency was already facing new troubles.

In the afternoon, near dusk.

Two people arrived at the escort agency, both dressed in blue, with pale yellow collars and belts, and the tassels on their swords were also pale yellow.

Standing outside the escort agency, looking at the grand and resplendent gate, along with the plaques on both sides, they showed clear expressions of shock.

"Is Chief Escort Yin Xiu present? Please inform him that Yishan Sect disciples have come to visit."

Both were in their thirties, courteous yet carried a slight air of arrogance.
