Chapter 75: I've Got Yemo
"Can't report?"
The Starlight Master looked suspiciously at Zhao Wushang.
Zhao Wushang said anxiously, "Think about it, as soon as we report in advance, what if Yin Sect Leader forbids us from taking action? Then we can't even act secretly, and that would cut off our own path!"
The Starlight Master roared, "If we don't report, that Liu Hanshan is a Ninth Grade King, do you have the strength to fight him?"
At the mention of this, everyone immediately fell silent.
After a moment, Zhao Wushang muttered under his breath, "We can report him…"
Everyone shivered with dread.
Hearing the word 'report' now gives us a headache...
The Starlight Master shouted angrily, "What did you say? Speak up, say it again."
Zhao Wushang stood up, disregarding everything, and said, "I just said, we can go report him to the Guardian Hall!"
The Starlight Master kicked him in the butt and glared, "We're worried about people reporting us, and you suggest we report them first before they do?"
Zhao Wushang earnestly said, "Leader, strike first to gain the upper hand!"
Everyone thought, this makes sense indeed.
They all persuaded, "Yes, Leader, they haven't reported us yet, but once they do it'll be too late. Let's report them first!"
"Right, this way we'll be completely safe."
"Those we don't need to report, we can just take care of ourselves." Wu Lianlian said with a fierce expression.
Zheng Yunqi immediately retorted, "That's not right! What's the point of us killing them? If we want to take them down, it's better to report to Steward Fang. This way, our status in the Guardian Hall will become more stable."
Everyone shouted in unison, "Brilliant idea!"
The Starlight Master was speechless: "I'm telling you, if we do this and it gets leaked, our reputations will be ruined!"
Zhao Wushang didn't care at all, with an indifferent expression: "Leader, you're overthinking it. People from our Wei Wo Zheng Sect don't need reputation..."
"We Wei Wo Zheng Sect people don't need..."
The Starlight Master was at a loss for words.
He glared at Zhao Wushang.
Everyone was holding back their laughter.
Zhao Wushang's words seemed to have hit a nerve with Lord Xing Mang.
"Damn it! Hahaha..."
The Starlight Master finally let out a laugh and started kicking Zhao Wushang repeatedly, laughing and cursing at the same time, "Damn it, it's one thing if the Guardians say this, but for our own people to also say it... damn you, I'll kick you to death!"
Zhao Wushang rolled on the ground but wasn't really hurt, knowing the Starlight Master wasn't angry, he laughed and said, "Leader, calm down, I was wrong... I won't say it again... I was just speaking the truth..."
"The truth hurts."
The Starlight Master stopped, feeling relieved: "Everyone, this guy defamed our Wei Wo Zheng Sect's reputation, don't let him off lightly! Beat him up!"
Immediately, everyone rushed over with a roar.
Zhao Wushang laughed and begged for mercy.
But after being scared for so long, on edge, everyone was finally relaxed under the Starlight Master's peerless wisdom, how could they not unwind a bit?
And hitting someone was the best way to relax.
After a whole round of chaos.
They finally calmed down.
The Starlight Master sat high on the White Tiger Skin Throne, frowning, and said: "Don't celebrate too soon, if the crisis develops exactly as we plan, we might get through it; but unexpected situations, you all know, can happen anytime anywhere."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
This was the truth.
"So in our plan, there are countless variables. Everyone stay alert."
The Starlight Master spoke heavily: "I have to say, we are really walking on the edge of a cliff this time... one wrong step, and it'll be eternal doom, you all know that."
"Yes."
Everyone's faces turned grave.
We have a plan.
But plans and execution are two different things.
"Everyone, don't come up with any more foolish schemes!"
The Starlight Master said emotionally, "Everyone! Everyone! Please, have pity on me, this little Branch Leader... we can't afford any more trouble."
Below.
Zhao Wushang and Zheng Yunqi's faces turned red like monkey butts, extremely embarrassed: "Rest assured, Leader, there won't be any more!"
The Starlight Master sighed and said: "I thought I was already ruthless enough and qualified to be a Demon, and I thought I was also quite trouble-making capable. But comparing to you, I find your ability to cause trouble... you could all be my Grandmasters!"
Everyone blushed with shame, wishing for the ground to swallow them.
"Alright, go rest. Oh, there's one more thing."
The Starlight Master said.
"What does Leader want to instruct?" Everyone was extremely polite.
"It's not my business, it's your business."
The Starlight Master said: "I know you all now have your own little rooms. But... we don't know when the attacks will come, and sleeping like dead pigs at night... is unacceptable."
"I think, under your small houses, you should dig a cellar or something. Make it as deep as possible, I don't need to tell you how to camouflage it; you'll figure it out yourselves; try to sleep there at night."
The Starlight Master said: "This isn't difficult, is it?"
"Not difficult at all!"
Everyone thought it was some issue, turns out it's for their own safety.
They were all extremely touched.
Feeling warm inside.
Several ladies nodded repeatedly, if the Starlight Master wasn't so distinctly ugly, they might have been moved to offer themselves...
"Excavate the cellar with waterproofing in mind."
The Starlight Master maxed out their favorability at once.
"Rest assured, Leader! Thank you for your hard work, Leader!"
"Call him Chief!"
"Chief is mighty!"
...
The Starlight Master left the sub-branch and disappeared.
A bunch of young masters and misses started digging tunnels overnight.
Have to say, after this incident, the Starlight Master's prestige and status in the hearts of the little demons have skyrocketed!
They reached an unparalleled level of gratitude.
"Leader is simply too awesome..."
"Indeed, I didn't think this kind of thing could be resolved, it was a dead end!
"It's only something the Starlight Master can handle, switch someone else and it'll be tough."
"Exactly." Everyone nodded in agreement.
One person frowned after laughing, worriedly said: "Brother Zheng, I always have a feeling that although this seems resolved, the Main Sect and the various families are not blind or foolish. Once Steward Fang spills the beans, we're sure to be exposed, there are too many loopholes, it won't stand up to scrutiny."
Zheng Yunqi laughed with the group and said: "Do you think the Leader didn't consider it? There are, of course, many loopholes, but we're not after loopholes, we're after reasons and achievements! And that's all headquarters and our families want too! As for the loopholes, do they matter? As long as headquarters and our own families back us up, there's no need for the sects below to be considered. Understand?"
"I don't understand."
"If you don't understand, think it over yourself. Hahaha..."
(No need to explain here, I wrote over a thousand words and can't stop, so I cut it off. Check out the comments.)
...
On the other side.
Nightmare went online to communicate with Yin Shen Palace.
"Master! I have wonderful news to report!"
These days at Yin Shen Palace, it has been agonizing.
Up until today, they were completely hopeless.
Because the fifteen teams he sent to establish sub-branches have all been confirmed as complete losses!
And the most frustrating part is... one hundred percent of them were killed by people of their own system!
This made the Old Demon's heart drop to the bottom.
Couldn't even find the mood to drink.
The joy of Yixin Sect leveling up to the second level had completely vanished.
Because he knows, before long, he will be demoted again. The Nightmare side is still far from taking shape. Too many variables still exist!
Once demoted, he will again be on an equal level with Hai Wuliang and those like him, and... providing them with new jokes!
Thinking of this, Yin Sect Leader felt despair... Why struggle?
The whole world seems to be against me, might as well just give up!
Suddenly seeing a message from Nightmare lifted his spirits a bit.
So he lazily asked, "What's the great news? Did your cultivation break through to Monarch Level?"
Nightmare: "Master, please don't joke, I really have great news."
Yin Shen Palace closed his eyes and used the Five Spirits Gu to send a message: "Go ahead."
"Master, it's like this, I established our sub-branch, then recruited those guys and had them swear allegiance to the Celestial Worm God. Then they proposed setting up an Escort Agency... so I used Steward Fang's identity... then I used the report... then I used... then I... then..."
"...and ultimately it ended like this. It means our Yixin Sect Branch is about to embrace explosive development while other sects will soon be wiped out, leaving us as the sole choice... and the Branch's strength is about to skyrocket..."
"Moreover, with the Starlight Master inside and Steward Fang outside, the Branch's legitimacy in the Guardian Hall is getting more and more solid... And with Steward Fang's identity, superficially, only slightly involved with the Worldwide Escort Agency... I have a way to extract Steward Fang out, making the Worldwide Escort Agency independent and belonging to us, a cooperative unit in the Guardian Hall."
"Master..."
As Fang Che sent over long paragraphs.
Yin Shen Palace started reading casually.
But as he read, he suddenly sat up, eyes gleaming.
By halfway, he was already on his feet, laughing heartily: "Good! Well done! Hahahaha..."
After reading it all, Yin Shen Palace felt completely refreshed!
The depression of many days was instantly swept away!
"What is luck? This is luck!"
"What does turning a corner mean? This is turning a corner!"
"What does it mean to be the Child of Destiny, my Yin Shen Palace, that's the Child of Destiny, always finding a way out in a deadlock! Hahahaha..."
Yin Shen Palace almost blossomed with flowers on his face from smiling.
This damn thing!
My Yixin Sect won't be demoted!
On the contrary, damn it, I will even receive rewards from the Main Sect!
"What if everyone in the Main Sect and all the Shi Family comes to oppose Yixin Sect? I have Nightmare!"
"What if you trap this Sect Master in the Yixin Sect Headquarters? I have Nightmare!"
