Chapter 2092: Discussion
Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Although the scarlet bees couldn’t snoop on many private things like before, they still came in handy for seeking out some information that was widely known.
She didn’t let them get close to Hua Wu Xiang. She stayed in the garden from time to time to listen to passers-by and heard a lot of news.
For example, the news of the newly appointed Envoy You was passed back to her. Information such as who he arrested yesterday and how many people he killed today and she also knew some big things that happened in the city.
They stayed in the mountains for a few months.
One day, the two sat facing each other under a tree on the top of a mountain, with a small low table in the middle and a tea set on the table. Wu Lingyu was leisurely making tea for her.
A gentle breeze blew by, and the fragrance of the tea permeated.
Sima You Yue looked at the table with one hand on the table, looked at the lush mountain forest, and said, “More and more people have come in recently. It seems that Great Bridge City has been unblocked.”
“After checking for so long, there is no news at all. It should be that the person who stole the ore has left.” Wu Lingyu said, “As a big city, Great Bridge City cannot be sealed all the time. To be honest, it’s rare that it remain sealed for so many months.”
“He he, I’m happy to think of pitting him so miserably.” Sima You Yue smiled happily, her eyes curved into two crescents.
Wu Lingyu smiled and shook his head. Every time she talked about this, she was very happy. It was just cheating one person yet it made her happy for such a long time.
He placed the brewed tea in front of her and she reached forward to pick it up. She slowly sipped on the tea as she relaxed and drank with relish as her eyes were narrowed into a squint, expressing her satisfaction.
Everyone knows that the tea she brews was delicious, but in fact, the tea she brewed was not as good as Wu Lingyu.
But no one knew about this – only she had the privilege to drink the tea he brewed.
Wu Lingyu likes to see her satisfied expression. Seeing her contented, the corners of his mouth raised. He felt that she was like an adorable kitten, which makes people want to tease her.
“Hmm?” She opened her eyes, “There seems to be movement.”
“He is finally leaving?” Wu Lingyu asked calmly.
“Yeah.” Sima You Yue heard the news from the scarlet bees and said, “He’s been amassing people, so he should be leaving after.”
“Both of them have been fighting for so many months, and it is estimated that the result is about to come out.” Wu Lingyu said, “We have already received news about Xiao He and that he is on his way.”
“It’s really impossible to do this without Xiao He around.” Sima You Yue said, “But why are there people from the Devil Clan in the Soul Domain?”
Wu Lingyu gave her a look, and she immediately understood. It is estimated that some of them were instigators, and some were like him. But most of them were the former. After all, not everyone has that strength.
A day later, the scarlet bees came back with news, and Sima You Yue’s eyes lit up when she heard it.
Things were progressing better than she expected!
“What’s the good news?” Wu Lingyu asked.
“With the help of your people, the relationship between the two sides has worsened. Now the two commanders are going to meet and talk about this matter.” Sima You Yue said, “He knows that the two of them want to get along. If you tell him about this again, he will definitely stop it. It will be easy to do things then.”
“I hope their speed is fast enough.” Wu Lingyu had other worries, “Since Qing Hun is eyeing the Ghost Realm, he must have sent someone to pay attention to the situation over there. You can’t hide the fact that you came to the Soul Domain for long.”
“As long as you can catch Xiao He, it doesn’t matter if you see him.” Sima You Yue also thought of this.
She was a little worried at first, but after thinking about it later, she came here to find him. As long as she grabbed the bargaining chip, it doesn’t matter if he found out.
“It will be more lively when the two meet. Let’s join in the fun.” She smiled playfully, “I haven’t seen Mu Luo Feng yet, so I don’t know if this person is reliable. Let’s hope that his abilities can match his looks, that’s all I ask for.”
“...”
Hua Wu Xiang had been in a very bad mood recently. When Mu Luo Feng came to watch the Talent Trials before, each and every evidence that he mentioned was a slap to his face and it hurt a lot.
They were on the other side of Great Bridge Mountain at this time, and both of them couldn’t bear it anymore. It happened that Mu Luo Feng was in the vicinity, so they made an appointment to meet and have a good discussion.
If they couldn’t reach an agreement, he won’t show mercy. Even if he was killed, the General won’t blame him. Facing two capable people, if one died, wouldn’t they have to rely more on the other?
He even thought about the tying up all the loose ends and just waited for Mu Luo Feng to come.
Mu Luo Feng also had the same idea. The people he had put in so hard were all pulled out by Hua Wu Xiang. Not only that, Hua Wu Xiang also killed many of his own people, which caused him a heavy loss. Therefore, Hua Wu Xiang said that he would meet at the edge of Great Bridge Mountain, and he agreed immediately.
The periphery of Great Bridge Mountain was his territory, so he was not afraid of the other party pulling any tricks.
“Commander, the manpower has been arranged. As long as Mu Luo Feng comes into the mountain, unless you permit it, he will not be able to leave here.” The newly appointed Envoy You came back to report.
“Well, thank you for your hard work.” Hua Wu Xiang said lightly.
“This is what subordinates should do.” Envoy You lowered his head and looked very humble.
“You may go.”
“Yes.” He retreated, and his expression changed when he turned around.
Obviously, he has done a lot of things recently, but the commander still only likes to keep Envoy Zuo by his side. His chances were always taken away. This was so unfair!
He glared at Envoy Zuo, but Envoy Zuo didn’t even look at him at all.
He really thought that he was on an equal footing with himself when he became an envoy? Hmph! He didn’t know that he was just a scapegoat they had found in haste!
Just like this, jut let him be rampant and arrogant and let him be happy for two more days. For such a person, bothering about him was a waste of energy.
But Envoy You felt that he was afraid of himself, and he was even more proud, imagining that one day he would be able to take his place and become the most important person around Hua Wu Xiang.
It didn’t take long for Mu Luo Feng to bring people.
“Hua Wu Xiang, let’s talk, what do you want to discuss?” Mu Luo Feng immediately brought it up as soon as he came, and it was obvious he did not even hold a sliver of guilt at all, instead he was high and aloof.
Indeed, in all their battles, be it covert or in the open, he had a slight advantage, so he dared to extend his reach to Hua Wu Xiang.
Seeing that Mu Luo Feng brought so many people, Hua Wu Xiang said with a sullen face, “Mu Luo Feng, what do you mean by bringing so many people? It doesn’t look like you are here for a proper discussion?”
