Amidst the deafening roar, Miao Yi smiled and waved his hand, keeping Charcoal back into his beast sack. He turned to look at Bao Lian, who had poked his head out of the moon gate because of Charcoal's roar. He walked over with his hands behind his back and asked, "Are Fu Qing and the others here yet?"
Bao Lian hurried over and followed behind him. "They're waiting in the main hall."
Miao Yi nodded and continued on his way. Bao Lian couldn't help but ask, "Are you going to participate in the assessment?"
"What do you think?"
"Please reconsider, Sir."
"There's nothing to think about. I'll be back soon. While I'm gone, work hard to improve your cultivation. I'll give you a promotion when I return! "
Bao Lian wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything else. After serving by Miao Yi's side for so many years, he was used to Miao Yi's words.
"Greetings, Great Commander!"
As soon as Miao Yi appeared in the main hall, Fu Qing, Invincible Eagle, Xu Tangran, and Murong Xinghua all greeted him. The other person was Xu Tangran's subordinate, Su Li!
Su Li was obviously a little nervous.
Miao Yi raised his hand, gesturing for them to dispense with the formalities. His gaze fell on Su Li, and he asked, "You are Su Li?"
The others followed his gaze, especially Murong Xinghua.
Su Li said nervously, "I am Su Li!"
Miao Yi smiled and nodded. He then turned to the other four and said, "I'm going to participate in the assessment, so I won't be around. Everyone, focus on your own territories. The four of you will discuss and decide on the entire Sky Street. If you can't come to a decision, you can report it to the Dong Hua Headquarters."
"Understood!" Fu Qing, Invincible Eagle, and Xu Tangran answered in unison.
On the other hand, Murong Xinghua abruptly raised his head to look at Miao Yi. He wasn't exactly surprised, as he had expected this to happen. He then slowly tilted his head to look at his three colleagues, who didn't seem surprised at all. It was obvious that the three of them already knew something.
In fact, she had noticed some problems as well. Ever since Cao Wanxiang's actions in the Dong Hua Headquarters, she felt that Miao Yi was holding back. He would often summon the other three Great Commanders without her participation.
"There's nothing much to say. Let's just leave it at that. Su Li, we're going the same way. Let's go together! "Miao Yi threw down his words and strode past them, with Su Li following behind him.
The others quickly caught up. Xu Tangran warned Su Li, "Su Li, take good care of the Lord during this trip. If there's any negligence, I'll hold you responsible."
"Yes, sir!" Su Li answered.
They followed him out of the City Guard Palace and cupped their fists together to send him off. They watched as Miao Yi led Su Li and flew towards the city gates.
After the figure disappeared, the few of them looked at each other and sighed. Suddenly, Murong Xinghua scoffed, "The three of you already knew that the Great Commander was going to participate in the assessment?"
Fu Qing and Invincible Eagle didn't say anything. Xu Tangran laughed dryly and said, "Actually, I just found out not long ago."
"Really?" Murong Xinghua scoffed, "There are people in the city who set up a bet on whether Master will participate or not. I heard that Commander Xu had ordered people to secretly place a lot of bets. I reckon that you will earn quite a lot this time, right?"
Fu Qing and Invincible Eagle looked at Xu Tangran coldly.
"..." Xu Tangran was speechless for a while. Then, he angrily said, "Who did you hear that from? There's no such thing."
He couldn't help but feel anxious. The Great Commander hadn't gone far. Xing Ling could easily summon him back. The Great Commander could still take his life at any time. What would happen if the Great Commander found out about this? He didn't mean anything else. He just knew the inside story and felt that he shouldn't miss out on a chance to make a fortune. If his future was bleak, he could at least sit on the bench with more capital.
He didn't do it himself. Instead, he arranged for Huang Xiaotian to do it. If the news was leaked, it meant that something had happened on Huang Xiaotian's side.
Actually, the gambling house was set up in Murong Xing Hua's territory in the North City District. She had heard that Huang Xiaotian had placed a large bet in the gambling house and coincidentally, she was someone who knew about the relationship between Huang Xiaotian and Xu Tangran. If Huang Xiaotian didn't receive any accurate information, he wouldn't have placed such a heavy bet. Thus, she lied and tried it out. Looking at the attitude of Xu Tangran and the other two, she was 80% to 90% sure that it was true.
Murong Xing Hua didn't have the intention to make things difficult for Xu Tangran. She just wanted to confirm that the three of them already knew about it. It also proved that the Great Commander was worried about her. She suddenly understood and didn't say anything else. She walked down the stairs …
Donghua Headquarter Office.
The rendezvous point was located in the pavilion outside the headquarters. The person in charge of the meeting was coincidentally Madam Bi Yue's old acquaintance. He was also Miao Yi's former assistant, the former Vice Commander of the Heaven's Avenue on the Heaven's Origin Star. Slender umbrella
When he saw Miao Yi bringing Su Li over to report, he was stunned. Slender vegetables obstruct the spring, fresh and fragrant, so I send Huan Huan to play? Bouncing around? Should I take the blame for my appearance? Alliance? Mu Mo Ga Huang Qi?? Models? Still? Lips? Coward? Si si zi?? Huh??? Protruding? Old woman? Tax evasion? A cough? Playful Emperor's Choice
Miao Yi was quite tactful. As soon as he saw that it was Miao Yi, he flicked a storage ring into Miao Yi's hand and chuckled, "Huh? Desert Cistanche? A scourge caused by appearance? Bo Chi Shan!
?? Stir-Frying with Ciliary Wounds? Can you stop a boat or a mace? Sole? Xin Chang? Baskets are worth rotting corpses and stewing in a stew!
Miao Yi nodded. "Reporting for duty. This is Su Li, the Centurion of the Western District." He introduced Su Li at the same time.
?? XianShang Piγ? Heir? Ke Sun Chu? Rotten Bones Pressing Heavy Rod? Zheng? Bad luck? Deer? Blacksmiths? Fight!
"Of course," Miao Yi replied with a smile.
He and Su Li both took out their examination notices and handed them in. They also made a comparison with their dharma seals to prove that they were not fakes. Slender Demons Twist Aluminum Says Stun and Reduce Endurance? Sea? Jar faction pouring handkerchief, cormorant man rolling thumb whip? Do you want to bury the skeleton in the dark?

Miao Yi turned to look at the manor and asked, "Have the other nine Great Commanders signed up?"
?? Is there still a festering corpse in the Wei Wei crowding the evening cockroach? Wu Chen Cang? Collapse? Emperor Liao slandered the government!
Miao Yi asked again, "How many people from the Donghua Headquarter are participating in the assessment?"
?? Stupid Skeleton Ao?? Horn? Difficult? Sakura?
Who would have thought that there were so many people who were not afraid of death! Miao Yi remained silent for a moment, then turned to Su Li and said, "Go to the manor and look for my courtyard first. You don't have to squeeze with the others. You can stay with me. I'll go pay my respects to the Lord Mayor, then I'll look for you later."
"Yes!" Su Li answered.
?? Slender Flash Hall? Locusts think of a coward?? Summon Sakura? Shelter? Si pi pi pi? Edict
Miao Yi didn't have to wait for long before the person came over and said that the Town Commander would like to invite him over. Basking in the Beautiful Banana Tree? Kha
Inside the mansion, when he saw Lady Biyue again, there was a clear gap between the two of them. Both of them maintained a respectful greeting. The Lady Biyue who used to pick flowers for Miao Qingfeng was gone. She was very polite.
After chatting for a while, Miao Yi took his leave. Madam Bi Yue personally sent him off.
When they arrived at the manor at the foot of the mountain, the person who was escorting Miao Yi left after handing him over to the guards guarding the manor.
The newly built manor was new everywhere. To be exact, it was done rather crudely. Even the most basic vegetation was not grown. After all, this was a temporary place to stay for a month or two. It was rushed out after the number of examinees was confirmed. There were many people who signed up at the last minute.
The person who accepted Miao Yi was a Deputy General named Li Huantang. He could be considered Miao Yi's old subordinate. However, he was originally stationed at the City Guard Palace and was not under Li Huantang's command. Now, he didn't have much respect for Miao Yi. He casually pointed to the innermost house among the ten houses and said, "Niu Youde, that's your house."
Miao Yi didn't have a good attitude, but he actually dared to call him by his name. Miao Yi looked Li Huantang up and down and asked, "Where is Gong Yufei?"
Li Huantang pointed to the ground as if he had eaten gunpowder. Even though he had no grudges against Miao Yi, he shouted rudely, "Niu Youde, you better figure out what kind of place this is. Everyone who comes here, regardless of their previous status, is now waiting for the examinees. Is Steward Gong someone you can see whenever you want?"
Miao Yi immediately took out the Star Bell and contacted Gong Yufei. However, Gong Yufei didn't respond at all. She put away the Star Bell and looked around. The faces of the former City Guard Palace of Heaven's Origin were filled with ridicule. There were also many unknown people, probably the examinees, who popped their heads out to look at them. Miao Yi's heart sank.
It was obvious that someone wanted to teach him a lesson. He didn't know if this was Madam Biyue's intention.
"What are you looking at?" Li Huantang shouted again, "Are you trying to escape?"
Miao Yi coldly glanced at him and didn't say anything else. He turned around and walked towards the courtyard that the other party pointed to. He looked around as he walked. 'Strange. Where did Su Li go? Why didn't he show himself? Could it be that someone knew Su Li was his subordinate? What did they do to Su Li?'
When he thought of this, he was afraid that something might have happened to Su Li. He quickened his pace and arrived at the courtyard. Seeing that the courtyard door was tightly shut, he pushed the door open and entered. The scene that greeted his eyes made Miao Yi freeze in place.
The courtyard was actually not that big. It was just a small house and a small courtyard. In this kind of environment, it was impossible to build a luxurious courtyard. With more than two thousand people squeezed together, it was already good enough for them to have a small courtyard with a single door to live in.
This wasn't a big deal. The key was that there were more than thirty people standing in the courtyard. Among them, there were a few familiar faces. The other nine Great Commanders of Heaven's Avenue under Donghua Headquarter were all present, and Su Li was standing among them.
Zhang Hanfang chuckled and said, "Niu Youde, did you come to the wrong place? This is the courtyard I'm staying in."
Everyone burst into laughter. They were obviously playing the same trick as they did at the banquet.
Miao Yi raised his eyebrows. He understood now. Gong Yufei was in cahoots with this group of people. They were working together to smear his reputation.
Putting this matter aside for now, he walked over to the crowd and asked Su Li, "Su Li, are you alright?"
Su Li's expression was clearly a little unnatural. He averted his gaze, not daring to meet Miao Yi's eyes. He looked a little guilty.
Liu Guiping chuckled and said, "Brother Su, do you know this Great Commander Niu?" He raised his hand and patted Su Li's shoulder, as if hinting at something.
Su Li gritted his teeth and raised his head to look at Miao Yi. He said in a clear voice, "How can I not know him? He is my superior in Heaven's Avenue on Heaven's Origin Planet. This despicable man!"
Miao Yi narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling upon the hand Liu Guiping had placed on Su Li's shoulder. He said, "Su Li, come here. Don't be afraid of their threats!" He thought Su Li had been forced to say those words because he was under their control.
