Chapter 64: Yemo Appears
Zheng Yunqi and Zhao Wushang both nodded repeatedly like pecking chickens, cold sweat dripping from their foreheads.
This matter is indeed difficult to speak of. Being scolded, they could only listen quietly.
Fang Che said, "I hope that your Escort Agency's Chief Yin Xiu will pay serious attention to this matter. Don't stir up trouble again!"
"Yes, yes, Steward Fang's golden words, we will definitely pass them on!"
"Alright, this escort head of yours... named Jiang Bin, right, his temper is really something... Even asked me what I could do about him being from the Demon Sect... hahaha."
Fang Che showed a toothy smile: "So, I couldn't help but lose my patience for a moment. Please convey my apologies to him."
Both of them wiped off the sweat: "Yes, Steward Fang, don't worry, it's no big deal, it's no big deal."
"Well then, I shall take my leave."
"Steward Fang, walk slowly."
Steward Fang waved his hand and finally left.
The oppressive atmosphere they brought to the Guardian Hall also finally disappeared.
Zhao Wushang and Zheng Yunqi slumped into their chairs to rest for a long time, feeling completely exhausted.
This is really freaking tense.
Back and forth to the Yin Yang Realm all day.
So thrilling!
Then finally they erupted in anger, yelling, "Jiang Bin!"
Several people then gave Jiang Bin a good beating.
Afterwards.
Everyone gathered to discuss a countermeasure.
"It's quite obvious that the person is from the headquarters, otherwise they wouldn't know us so well."
"Absolutely! They even called out our names! Damn it..."
Zhao Wushang was beyond angry.
He had never been betrayed like this before.
Today, it just happened one after another.
"There's something fishy about this."
Zheng Yunqi was also very angry but still maintained some composure, saying, "We must not act rashly. Let's discuss with the Squad Leader when he returns tonight. If we act rashly, we might just fall into a trap, and that would be truly disastrous."
"Right, let's wait for the Squad Leader, no matter what, we can't make such a decision by ourselves."
Zhao Wushang nodded repeatedly.
Evening.
The Starlight Master arrived fashionably late.
There was still a hint of alcohol on his breath.
Zhao Wushang and the others hurriedly stepped forward to report the events of the day.
"What?!"
The Starlight Master immediately widened his eyes and slammed the table: "Damn it! Reported?! How could this happen? When?"
"This afternoon… we…"
Zhao Wushang and others hurriedly explained.
And sincerely thanked the Starlight Master.
Thanks to the Squad Leader for changing our attire and reciting the Law Codes, otherwise today would have been over...
The Starlight Master, after listening to the whole process, had a suspicious look, with a bit of a 'who stole my cake' fierce expression.
But he seriously pondered, frowning his brows like two big brushes.
Beside him, several girls couldn't bear to look directly and turned their heads away.
Sigh...
In the afternoon, they saw Steward Fang who was as elegant as a jade tree, now looking at this Starlight Master, he seemed particularly... unappealing!
Indeed, people cannot be compared.
If you compare people, someone's bound to die; if you compare goods, something's bound to be discarded.
This sentence is really incredibly true.
Even though he saved their lives, his appearance is really… not something they could speak highly of.
"If your own families have any enemies... damn it, don't drag my sub branch into it."
The Starlight Master bared his teeth: "How could anyone tolerate such constant reports every day?"
"There are about forty of you... if one of you loses your composure one day and is scared out on the spot, what awaits us is the whole nest being wiped out!"
The Starlight Master sneered wickedly: "Every one of you doesn't clean up after yourselves? Why are you the ones being reported and not others? There must be a reason for this, isn't it obvious?"
Zheng Yunqi and Zhao Wushang looked utterly dejected: "We really don't remember any enemies of the family... and typically, families from headquarters reporting other family descendants to the Guardian is something we almost never hear of before."
"Don't talk nonsense!"
The Starlight Master cursed: "Damn it, even if there was before, those who were reported would have been dealt with by the Guardian long ago, what do you know? You don't even have a full set of hair yet, and you think the outside world is all gentle breeze and rain, safe and peaceful? Just a group of fools! Never hearing of it means it doesn't exist? What kind of logic is playing in your heads for you to live to this age?"
"Damn it, if you all died today, how could anyone know you were the ones reported? Can you not use your brains when saying this crap?"
The Starlight Master spat saliva three meters into the air: "Damn, though your brains are mostly water, there's got to be some brain matter, right? If you were complete idiots, how did you manage to reach me here? I'm truly puzzled, are you really side branches? Damn, you're being better protected than the direct descendants, knowing nothing at all."
The Starlight Master cursed and swore: "Aren't you all just a bunch of simpletons? Damn, are your families really from the Demon Sect? Didn't you learn anything about harming others?"
"Do you want me to send you to take the Imperial Exam top scores?! Damn it!"
Everyone was scolded into bowing their heads.
Now they instinctively felt: The Starlight Master is making good points!
He's scolding correctly!
"The current situation is, we have been reported, but we don't even know who reported us."
Zheng Yunqi sighed.
The Starlight Master nearly covered his face with Zheng Yunqi's as he whispered angrily: "Do you even need to think about it? Don't know who reported you? I did! I reported you all!"
"That couldn't be, Squad Leader must be joking."
"You damn know I'm joking? You know it wasn't me? Damn, you can't even find the target and just assume it wasn't me. You've got remarkable brains!"
The Starlight Master sneered: "That's indeed a strange thing to say! You don't know who it is, but you must know who came from the outside, right?"
"This is known a little."
Everyone had completely lost their temper after being scolded.
"Damn, they reported you, and you won't report them back?"
The Starlight Master seemed utterly dumbfounded by these foolish kids: "Do you know what it means to repay tooth for tooth? Retaliation mean anything to you?"
"After killing a few quietly, creating a tense atmosphere where everyone is on edge... it's got to be safer than now, right?"
"Are you really going to just bide your time like cowardly quails, lazy and waiting to die here? Damn, this is driving me mad!"
The Starlight Master stretched out his long legs and spread out in the chair, groaning dejectedly: "Damn, I'm really at a loss... Are they all three-year-olds? How can your families be so assured to let you wander the Jianghu... my heavens... isn't this just to torment me? How did you end up under my watch?"
Zhao Wushang and the others suddenly had a bright idea.
"Should we report them too?"
"You need to use your brains when doing things!"
The Starlight Master pointed at Zhao Wushang's head, saying: "There's not much wisdom in there."
Zhao Wushang's face turned dark.
Zheng Yunqi said: "The Squad Leader is right, even if we report them, we have to be strategic about it."
"But this anger, I just can't swallow it!"
A bunch of little demons were rubbing their fists and preparing.
"Let's start with the Escort Agency."
Fang Che advised: "Try again tomorrow, have a few people go out, walk around, and see if anyone reports you. But you must stay calm. If Zhao Wushang and Zheng Yunqi managed it, so can you."
"Then if it happens, notice who it is. What they're wearing."
"When you come back, let's discuss how to handle it."
"Got it."
Fang Che sighed: "To have to teach such basic things step by step, I really don't know what you have learned growing up? Your families teach you nothing? It's fine if they don't teach brains, but not even tactics for harming others, can you still call yourselves the Demon Sect?"
"Simply tarnishing the name of our Demon Sect!"
The Starlight Master cursed and muttered before leaving.
The group started a small meeting.
"I think the Squad Leader is right!"
"Yes, his words are crude but insightful."
"We can't tolerate this any longer! If this goes on, sooner or later we'll be killed."
"Since others have already started acting against us, what's wrong with us retaliating?"
"Besides, if they die, who'll know it was us?"
…
The next day.
Zhou Mei'er and a few other girls went out, along with several others.
They surprisingly encountered Steward Fang again.
He even nodded and smiled a bit.
Passed by.
But... just as they passed by.
Suddenly someone shouted in the crowd: "Steward Fang, this girl called Zhou Mei'er is from the Wei Wo Zheng Sect!"
Zhou Mei'er quickly turned around.
Only to see a white figure disappearing in the crowd.
Looking again at Steward Fang, his face was full of anger.
"Go on, go on! Your people at the Worldwide Escort Agency, one by one... what's going on here? Luckily it was me you met, if it were someone else, wouldn't you be screwed over?"
Zhou Mei'er was still in shock: "Thank you, Steward Fang."
Turning back, an anger shot straight to the top of her head.
Damn it, even reporting me!? You really want to die!
And in another direction, someone else was reported.
Caught by Tang Zheng, and after questioning, finding nothing suspicious, he let the person go.
Continuously... three or four more people were reported.
It immediately infuriated these little demons to the point of explosion.
"Damn their ancestors!"
"I can't swallow down this anger no matter what!"
"Do they really think I'm a sick cat if the tiger doesn't show its power?"
After Fang Che's arrival, this atmosphere reached its climax.
"Leader, we also want to report them."
The Starlight Master sighed, glaring in anger: "Is your business the only important thing? Hold on, wait until the Escort Agency's opening is over. Being so jumpy, what do you think you look like?"
The more the Starlight Master repressed them, the more the little demons' anger burned, and with nowhere to vent, they cursed in the Escort Agency every day, even when sparring with each other, they began using heavy-handed tactics.
Frustrated lightly.
Then that night, in the second half...
An enormous case suddenly exploded.
The Menghu gang, a sub-sect under the Wei Wo Zheng Sect, was completely blood-wiped out in Baiyun State's sub-branch—no one left alive!
All dead uniformly.
Each had a small red dot on their throats.
Killing without shedding blood, with a trace of red under the sword.
Now, this was no longer the signature move of Yin Shen Palace or the Yin Sect Leader, but rather it had become the trademark of Yemo.
"Yemo has made a move!"
