East Chamber.
In the meeting hall.
"Supervisor, I recently discovered that the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa seems to have their eyes on us. The last time our people traded with Black Rock, someone was secretly watching us.”
The one who spoke was Cao Shaoqin, the second-in-command of the East Chamber.
Cao Shaoqin was much younger than Cao Zhengchun and Wan Yu Tower. However, for some reason, his hair was also a little gray, making him look a little strange.
After Cao Zhengchun heard this, he pinched his fingers and said in a sharp voice,""Hmph, looks like Ironguts can't hold it in anymore.
However, he didn't know who would be stronger and what kind of situation it would be like if Sir God Five Poisons and God Marquis Ironguts were to fight.”
"What do you mean?" Cao Shaoqin asked.
"Why don't we let Sir God Five Poisons teach him a lesson first?”Cao Zhengchun chuckled.
The next day.
Cao Zhengchun paid a visit to the Black Bamboo Manor.
"Supervisor Cao."
In the meeting hall, Chu Xiao and Cao Zhengchun sat facing each other.
"Sect Leader Chu, I've come with bad news. You have to be prepared.”Cao Zhengchun sipped his tea and said faintly.
"Feel free to speak."
Cao Zhengchun put down his teacup and said," As far as I know, the Iron Gut Divine Marquis of the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa has already set his eyes on you. Logically speaking, I should help you out if we work together."
However, the East Chamber and the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa are both imperial court organizations. It is not appropriate for the East Chamber to act openly in this matter. The only thing we can do is to inform you of this news and hope that Chief Chu can make preparations as soon as possible.”
Hearing Cao Zhengchun's serious words, Chu Xiao had yet to answer when he heard the mechanical sound of the system in his mind.
"Ding!"
"The system has issued a random mission: Attack Shangguan Haitang and Duan Tianya.”
" Reward for completing the mission: Shaolin Temple's Recover Pill, Torrential Pear Blossom Needles.”
The Shaolin Temple's Recover Pill had miraculous medicinal effects. Its main function was to help first-rate experts break through to the Grandmaster Realm.
It could be said that every Recover Pill could create a Grandmaster Realm expert.
Therefore, the value of the Great Cyclic Pellet was extremely precious. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was priceless.
After all, first-rate experts were common, but Grandmasters were rare.
However, Chu Xiao had long been a grandmaster expert. The Great Cyclic Pellet was of little value to him, so he could only hand it over to his subordinates.
On the contrary, another reward attracted Chu Xiao's attention.
The Torrential Pear Blossom Needle was a hidden weapon that belonged solely to the Tang Sect.
As he thought of this, Chu Xiao said to Cao Zhengchun,""Thank you for your information, Supervisor Cao. I will find an opportunity to test you.”
Even if it wasn't for the system reward, Chu Xiao still intended to compete with the Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa.
Chu Xiao couldn't tolerate the Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa wanting to investigate the business of buying officials.
"Alright, then I'll wait for the good news from Chief Chu.”Cao Zhengchun laughed shrilly.
Then, he pinched his fingers and stood up to leave.
After Cao Zhengchun left the meeting hall, Fatty Chen, who had been standing at the side, frowned and said,"Sect Master, I think the old eunuch is trying to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
If the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa wants to keep an eye on the East Hall, how can they keep an eye on us? It's most likely that the East Hall is intentionally diverting the trouble to the East Hall.”
Chu Xiao nodded slightly and said indifferently,""It's fine. No matter what Cao Zhengchun is planning, or what Zhu Bujue is planning, I will accept it.
I'll deal with whatever comes my way. I want to see what they can do to me.”
These extremely confident and arrogant words immediately dispelled all of Fatty Chen's concerns.
"Gang Leader is mighty." Fatty Chen cupped his hands and said.
On the other side.
Cao Zhengchun left the Black Bamboo Manor.
A sedan chair was parked at the entrance of the villa. Cao Shaoqin, the second-in-command, and a group of sedan bearers were waiting.
Seeing Cao Zhengchun come out, Cao Shaoqin hurriedly bowed.”
"Let's go back." Cao Zhengchun sat in the sedan chair and ordered,""After we return, arrange for someone to draw the attention of Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa to Black Bamboo Manor and have Sir God Five Poisons test out Deity Marquis Tiedan's strength.”
"Yes, Supervisor!"
Cao Shaoqin agreed.
"Rise!" The sedan chair bearer shouted, and everyone worked together to lift the sedan chair and carry Cao Zhengchun towards Luoyang.
......
That night.
Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa.
The hall was brightly lit. Dressed in luxurious clothes and wearing a gauze crown, Zhu Budian sat at the head of the table.
Not far in front of him, Duan Tianya and Shangguan Haitang stood side by side, reporting the situation to Zhu Budian.
"Godfather, during this period of time, Big Brother and I went to the East Hall to investigate. As Godfather guessed, the East Hall secretly runs a business of buying and selling officials!”Shangguan Haitang told him everything she had gathered.
Zhu Budian nodded and asked,""Have you found out which Jianghu force is colluding with the East Chamber?”
"It has also been found out that the East Chamber is working with the assassin organization Black Rock. Their leader Chu Xiao has met Cao Zhengchun several times, and their subordinates often meet each other.”Shangguan Haitang said.
"Very good. You managed to gather such important information in such a short time. The two of you have done well.”Zhu Budian laughed.
"What do you plan to do next?”Zhu Budian asked.
Shangguan Haitang glanced at Duan Tianya beside her and said,""Father, I've found out that Chu Xiao, the leader of Black Rock, lives in the Black Bamboo Manor outside the city.
Big Brother and I plan to sneak into the Black Bamboo Manor tonight to investigate and see if we can gather any evidence.
I'm guessing that Black Rock must have kept a secret account, recording the details of every official purchase. If we can get the account book, we'll have a better chance of dealing with East Hall in the future.”
Hearing Shangguan Haitang's words, Zhu Budian pondered for a moment and finally nodded." Since you have a plan in mind, we will do as you say. But remember, be careful and don't let Black Rock find out."”
"Godfather, don't worry! It's just a shady assassin organization. Even if my brother and I don't walk on flat ground, it's not a problem for us to walk around a few times.”
Shangguan Haitang was extremely confident and did not take Black Stone seriously at all.
Zhu Budian waved his hand." It's getting late. You guys go and prepare."”
"Yes, sir!" Shangguan Haitang and Duan Tianya bid farewell and left.
In the huge hall, Zhu Budian was the only one left, sitting at the head of the table.
The night gradually darkened, and the oil in the lamp gradually dried up. His figure slowly merged into the darkness.
