'Putting poison in my eyes?' Miao Yi was intrigued. He didn't know what kind of poison Xu Tangran would put in his eyes.
'The two Vice Commanders are very courteous!' Linghu Lanzi tried her best to maintain a smile. She could clearly feel the two Vice Commanders trying to rope her in.
How could she not have heard of the reputations of these two? As a woman, she was not too willing to get involved with these two and ruin her reputation. However, behind these two was Vice Chairman Zhen Boyue. It was really not good to offend them, so she could only feign civility. On top of that, she didn't know what the Great Commander's intentions were. Up until now, the two Vice Commanders hadn't been assigned the Eagle Banners. She didn't know who would become her superior in the future, so she couldn't afford to offend them.
Suddenly, she noticed that the commander of the central army, Xu Tangran, was winking at her. She was not familiar with Xu Tangran to the point where they could read each other's minds, but Xu Tangran had a lot of tricks up his sleeves. Suddenly, she flashed her palm, and there were four words written on it: Lure one away.
Linghu Lanzi understood what Xu Tangran's glance meant. Although she didn't know why he wanted her to do this, she knew there had to be a reason. Moreover, Xu Tangran was the Great Commander's number one confidant in the eyes of everyone in Black Tiger Banner. It could be the Great Commander's intentions, so she naturally obeyed.
Linghu Lanzi imitated her and gave Qu Yahong a meaningful look. Qu Yahong understood. Stroking her hair, she casually said, "Commander Linghu, this is my first time here. Accompany me for a walk."
"Tch!" Mu Yulian scoffed. She seemed to be talking to herself as she mocked, "Who hasn't been here for the first time?"
Linghu Lanzi pretended not to hear her. She lowered her head and followed behind Qu Yahong.
As soon as the two left, Xu Tangran acted as if nothing had happened. He slowly approached and chuckled, "Lord Mu, why are you here alone?"
Mu Yulian pouted at the two departing figures. "Commander Xu, don't blame me for not reminding you. Did you see those two? Others might not know Qu Yahong's character, but I do. That woman is trying to form a clique again. You are someone close to the Great Commander. Remember to remind him to be careful. "
"Sigh!" Xu Tangran shook his head and smacked his lips again. He frowned and said, "Why are the two of them hiding in a mysterious place?"
Mu Yulian said, "It's definitely nothing good."
Xu Tangran nodded again. He stroked the mustache on his chin and pondered for a moment. "Lord Mu, there's something I don't know if I should say."
Mu Yulian looked back at him, not knowing what he wanted to say. He put on a smiling face. "Commander Xu, we're already so familiar with each other. What's there to hide? If there's anything you want to say, just say it."
Xu Tangran looked around and said, "Lord Mu, I've heard some rumors recently. They seem to have been spread by Lord Qu."
Mu Yulian asked curiously, "What rumor?"
"This … that …" Xu Tangran stammered for a while, then braced himself and said, "Lord Mu, please be careful. Recently, there have been rumors that Lord Mu is Vice President Bo's lover. He relied on nepotism to climb to the position of Vice Commander. "These words were true.
Mu Yu Lian's delicate body trembled slightly. Her charming face instantly turned deathly pale. She gritted her teeth and said, "Bullshit! Are you sure it's Qu Yahong who spread the rumor? "
"No, no, it's just hearsay. I don't have any evidence." Xu Tangran quickly waved his hand as if he had said something wrong. He dropped these words and quickly slipped away.
Not long after, taking advantage of Qu Yahong being left alone after Linghu Lanzi left, Xu Tangran appeared out of nowhere and moved closer to Qu Yahong. After a sneaky exchange, Xu Tangran offered the same words again. "Lord Qu, please be careful. Recently, there have been rumors that Lord Qu is Vice President Bo's lover. He relied on nepotism to climb to the position of Vice Commander."
Qu Yahong was stunned on the spot. She seemed to be a little confused. After she reacted, her chest heaved up and down rapidly. "Nonsense! I'll tear off that bitch's stinky mouth! "
"Lord Qu …" Xu Tangran hurriedly reached out to stop her. "I only heard some rumors. I don't have any concrete evidence to prove that it was Lord Mu who said it. If Lord Qu exposed it to her on the spot, wouldn't everyone know about it? It would really damage Lord Qu's reputation. "
Qu Yahong's face alternated between red and white. Thinking about it, it was indeed the case. If she openly went against Mu Yulian, and if Mu Yulian shouted it out in public, it would really be …
Xu Tangran had no intention of accompanying her. Seeing her biting her lip and standing there in silence, he cupped his hands and quietly slipped away.
After patrolling the area once, Miao Yi gathered his men and prepared to go back. He noticed that Mu Yulian and Qu Yahong's expressions were very ugly. The two of them occasionally glanced at each other with eyes full of hatred.
When Xu Tangran approached them as if nothing had happened, Miao Yi transmitted his voice and asked, "Those two women had sullen faces. What did you do to them?"
Xu Tangran glanced left and right, revealing a sinister smile. He transmitted his voice back, "They are my superiors. How would I dare to do anything to them? I was just telling the truth. It's just that …" He told Miao Yi what he had done.
Miao Yi opened his mouth and was speechless. He knew that this guy was best at doing things that couldn't be shown in public. As expected, a dog can't change its spots. He was truly a despicable person.
Xu Tangran didn't feel ashamed. Instead, he felt proud. He chuckled and said, "In the future, these two women will definitely fight to the death. If Lord Qu acts as a mediator, it should reduce some trouble for Lord Qu."
Miao Yi said, "I say, aren't you afraid that both of them will expose the matter to Bo Yue? Once Bo Yue confronts both sides, he will immediately find out that you were the one who instigated it."
Xu Tangran chuckled and said, "What does it have to do with me? This matter has already spread. I only heard it from my subordinates. If Vice President Bo doesn't believe me, he can send someone to investigate and prove my innocence. Besides, I don't think Vice President Bo will likely pull the two of them together to confront them. Both sides are secretive and shameful. Vice President Bo probably doesn't want the two women to know about his relationship with the other party. If he really wants to make things clear, it will be when Vice President Bo has a headache. At that time, let's see which side he will side with. "
Miao Yi curled his lips and asked, "What are you going to do next?"
Xu Tangran immediately spilled the beans …
Miao Yi's eyelids twitched when he heard this. He calmly said, "If anything happens, you will have to bear the consequences alone. This matter has nothing to do with me. I don't know anything." As he said this, he beckoned to the people behind him and took the lead to take to the skies. It seemed like he wanted to get as far away from Xu Tangran as possible.
Two days later, on Planet Six Fingers. In a desolate land with boundless undulating yellow soil, a gust of wind swept up a cloud of yellow dust.
The yellow dust swept past like a rolling dragon. A silhouette swept across the sky and landed on a yellow soil slope. Looking around, it was none other than Xu Tangran.
Rumble. A large rock at the bottom of the slope rolled away, revealing a hole in the ground. An old man in black emerged from it. He was also an old acquaintance of Xu Tangran's. Miao Yi also knew him. He was the Lion Demon Huang Xiaotian who had returned from the Lifeless Lands all those years ago. He was now Xu Tangran's business partner. All these years, the two of them had been in cahoots with one in the open and the other in the dark. One was an official in Heaven's Avenue, while the other was doing business in Heaven's Avenue on the surface. In the dark, he was stirring up trouble in the black market. Who knew how many unjust cases they had committed together and how much they had earned.
Huang Xiaotian beckoned to Xu Tangran who was above. Xu Tangran descended in a flash, and the two of them entered the hole. Huang Xiaotian waved his hand, and the large rock rolled back to block the hole.
A few luminous pearls were thrown into the hole, illuminating it. Huang Xiaotian happily bowed and cupped his fists. "Congratulations on your promotion, Milord."
Xu Tangran retorted, "Congratulations my ass. You're still a Commander."
Huang Xiaotian smiled apologetically. "That's different. Back then, Milord only commanded a few people in Heaven's Avenue. Now, you're commanding over ten thousand men, and they're even the Celestial Court's Imperial Guards. The profits may be a little less, but your status is different. Your future is much brighter. With power and influence, there's no need to worry about getting rich in the future."
Xu Tangran waved his hand. "Don't talk about useless things. Why are you only here now?"
Huang Xiaotian let out an 'oh no' and put on an innocent look. "Milord, you've wronged me. It takes time to think of a way to get these things here. You're in such a hurry. It's already very good that I was able to get them here in such a short time."
Xu Tangran's eyes lit up. "Quick, take it out and let me see."
Huang Xiaotian flipped his hand and revealed an exquisite black jade box. It was only the size of a small pastry and was held in his palm. He gently opened the lid and saw that there was an amber-like object inside that was faintly glowing with orange light.
Xu Tangran snatched it over and flipped it around to look at it. He then placed it in front of his nose and sniffed it. He couldn't smell anything and couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "I say, Old Huang, don't try to fool me. Does this little thing really have the effect you said? Let me tell you, if you mess up my business, you won't have a good time either. "
Huang Xiaotian looked like he was pained. He shook his head and said, "Milord, don't think that it's just a little thing. I've spent a lot of money just for this. I've also accidentally heard from someone that someone in the black market has this thing. I heard that someone killed a spy from the Celestial Court's Left Monitoring Division and obtained it. It's a secret item that most people haven't even heard of. In order to get this thing, not only did I spend a lot of money, I also spent a lot of effort. I was afraid that I would delay Milord's time, so I even hired an expert with boundless magic power from an escort company to deliver it here urgently. Think about how much money this would cost. "
"Left Monitoring Division? Is that true?" Xu Tangran muttered and continued to flip it around to look at it. He sniffed it again, but he still couldn't smell anything.
Huang Xiaotian said, "I also don't know if it's true or not. In any case, I'm just saying. However, this thing is really good. It's best to use it to steal women."
Xu Tangran asked, "How do I use this thing?"
Huang Xiaotian chuckled and took the thing back from Jiang Yi's hand. He pointed at it and asked, "Does Milord know what this is? This is one of the seven emotions and six sensory pleasures. As long as you ingest a little bit, hehe, Milord should know the consequences."
Xu Tangran's eyes lit up. Of course, he knew the consequences of ingesting the desire. He asked curiously, "The desire is similar to light. It's easily volatile. How can it be locked in this thing?"
Huang Xiaotian shook his head. "I also don't know how. The reason must be inside this gelatinous thing. When Milord uses it, you just need to use your fingernail to scrape a little bit of it into the wine. This thing looks ordinary, but when mixed with the wine, it has a miraculous effect. Once it enters the wine, it will immediately turn invisible. It's colorless and tasteless. It can't be discovered at all. Once it enters the stomach, hehe … "
Xu Tangran's eyebrows slanted, and his eyes revealed a fanciful look. He immediately snatched the black jade box and closed it. He put it away and asked, "Where are the people?"
Huang Xiaotian waved his hand, and four handsome men were immediately summoned from the beast sack.
