In any case, Fang Aolin had heard that Niu Youde had a bad temper. But Yan Su was here. If Niu Youde saw her, would he drag him into it?
Fang Aolin's mind raced as he groaned inwardly. Why did he have to bump into this guy? However, on the surface, he forced a smile and said, "I was just passing by. I heard that the new Lieutenant had been appointed, so I came to congratulate you." He couldn't come up with a good excuse at the moment. He suspected that Miao Yi didn't come with good intentions, so he didn't want to say that he knew Wang Zhuo.
Under normal circumstances, he would be able to face Miao Yi calmly. However, he couldn't help but recall what kind of a person Miao Yi was.
'This excuse sounds a little forced. Do you think I'm an idiot? ' Miao Yi looked him up and down. He didn't have much of a good impression of him, so he chuckled and said with a fake smile, "What a coincidence. I didn't think Brother Fang and I would come to visit Lieutenant Wang for the same reason. We can keep each other company."
'Who the hell wants to keep you company?! ' Fang Aolin couldn't wait to stay as far away from Miao Yi as possible to avoid trouble. However, he said, "I see!" Then, he asked curiously, "If that's the case, why is Brother Niu waiting here for so long without seeing anyone?"
Miao Yi glanced up the mountain and said, "He said he wanted to verify my identity. It's been an hour, and there's still no news. Only I have the patience to do that!"
'You have the patience? You must be up to no good, aren't you? ' Fang Aolin thought disdainfully, but on the surface, he frowned. He looked up the mountain and scoffed, "We came here with good intentions. I didn't expect Wang Zhuo to treat his guests like this. How preposterous! It's better not to meet such an arrogant person! " As he said this, he flung his sleeves to express his anger. Then, he cupped his fists towards Miao Yi and said, "Brother Niu, I'll be taking my leave first!"
'Damn it! ' Miao Yi raised an eyebrow. He realized that this guy was quite sinister. In just a few moves, he had managed to twist himself into his words, and he had actually given him a high-sounding reason to make him leave. 'Why are you running away as soon as you see me? Is he hiding something? '
Bluemoon couldn't help glancing at Fang Aolin.
Since he had seen through the other party's intentions, how could Miao Yi let him have his way? He stopped him and said, "Brother Fang's words are wrong. Domain Chief Wang might have some opinions about me, but Brother Fang and Domain Chief Wang have no grudges against each other, so the treatment you receive may be different. How can you misunderstand Domain Chief Wang's character because of me? Brother Fang, why don't you send your subordinates to report this to Domain Chief Wang? It won't be too late to make a decision after seeing Domain Chief Wang's attitude. "He stared at the four people behind Fang Aolin and gestured for them to report.
Bluemoon was secretly amused. After all, she had been by Miao Yi's side for so many years. She more or less understood Miao Yi's character. She knew that Miao Yi deserved to be pestered by this guy. Why did he have to resort to deceiving others? If he continued to be so unreasonable, he would probably trigger Miao Yi's tyranny.
The four people behind Fang Aolin would definitely not listen to Miao Yi. Naturally, they knew what kind of person Miao Yi was, and they could sense that something was amiss.
Fang Aolin didn't want to waste any more time with Miao Yi, so he sighed and said, "Forget it. Even if I can enter, Brother Niu will be given the cold shoulder …" He shook his head, implying that he didn't want to embarrass Miao Yi.
Unexpectedly, Miao Yi coldly scoffed and said, "It's fine. You don't have to give me face. We aren't familiar with each other anyway. You can go in yourself. It has nothing to do with me." Just a moment ago, he was calling Fang Aolin 'brother', but in the blink of an eye, he was already making it clear that they weren't familiar with each other.
"Forget it. I will take my leave now. Brother Niu, let's meet again if we have the chance!" Fang Aolin cupped his fists once more, then impatiently turned around and prepared to leave.
"Hold it right there!" Miao Yi coldly shouted.
Fang Aolin froze, not daring to run away. He slowly turned around and tried his best to maintain a calm expression as he asked, "Does Brother Niu have any other orders?"
Miao Yi expressionlessly replied, "Orders my ass! Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? "What he was implying was, 'Are you messing with me?'
Fang Aolin was surprised. "Why do you say that, Brother Niu?"
Miao Yi replied, "Do you think you're the Yishen Domain Chief just because you say so? How do I know if you're fake or not? Domain Chief Wang is also a member of the eastern army, and it's easy for him to distinguish the real one from the fake one. Go, find Domain Chief Wang and verify it yourself. If you dare to impersonate an official from the Heavenly Courts … I won't tolerate it! "
He dared to conclude that this person definitely knew Wang Zhuo. Wang Zhuo left him hanging here, and as soon as this guy heard his identity, he immediately found an excuse to leave. Damn it, he was going to make this guy stay and wait with him.
Of course, they were all from the Heavenly Court, so they had to have a reasonable reason to find trouble. Thus, he only suspected that the other party was an imposter and wanted to verify his identity.
The moment he said this, Fang Aolin and the rest's expressions changed. It seemed like Niu Youde was deliberately trying to make them stay.
Bluemoon sighed inwardly. As expected, this person's ferocity had risen.
Yan Xiu acted as if it had nothing to do with him. From the beginning to the end, he did not even blink. He stared coldly at them as if he was looking at a dead man.
Fang Aolin took out his official position jade archive. "Here is the appointment jade archive. It will prove my identity."
Miao Yi said, "I don't walk the same path as you, so I can't recognize the transcendence seal of the eastern army's superior. I advise you to do as I say. Don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit! "
"You …" Fang Aolin was furious. Miao Yi had gone too far.
His four subordinates were also furious. They were all Domain Chiefs, so what right did he have to be so arrogant?
However, they did not dare to voice their anger. Bluemoon, who was standing at the side and looking at them coldly, was enough to give them enough pressure. They did not dare to move a muscle.
If it were anyone else, they would definitely not bother with them. They did not believe that they would dare to act recklessly. However, when they thought about Niu Youde's criminal record, they knew that he was definitely someone who had been bitten by a rabid dog. That would be gambling with their lives!
Miao Yi was overbearing. "What about you? Are you dragging your feet because you have a guilty conscience? " He reached out to catch a ray of sunlight peeking through the shade of the trees. He looked up at the sky and said, "My patience is limited. Hurry up. Don't regret it if you're too late!"
He was used to dealing with people like Miao Yi, so he did not feel any pressure at all.
Fang Aolin gritted his teeth in anger. However, he was helpless against Miao Yi's forceful approach. There was nothing he could do about it. He could only tilt his head and signal for one of his subordinates to report to Miao Yi.
One of them left and walked towards the mountain gates.
Miao Yi also tilted his head and signaled Yan Xiu, saying, "Go and ask. Is Domain Chief Wang trying to take advantage of the fact that there is no one in the Celestial Valley Palace to humiliate me?"
When they arrived at the mountain gates, Fang Aolin's subordinate reported to the guards, then secretly transmitted his voice over to Miao Yi. Yan Xiu, who had caught up to them, immediately relayed Miao Yi's message.
After that, Fang Aolin and the others naturally could not leave. They waited together with Miao Yi and the others, their moods unknown. They took out the Star Bell and tried to contact someone.
Miao Yi also took out the Star Bell from his sleeve and asked someone to investigate Fang Aolin's background.
This time, they didn't have to wait long before someone arrived from the mountain gates. He cupped his fists and apologized, "I am truly sorry for making the two Domain Chiefs wait for so long. Please come in!"
"It looks like Brother Fang is the one with the most influence! Let's go together! "Miao Yi laughed coldly.
The group finally entered the mountain gates. However, after ascending the mountain, they were once again left in the guest courtyard. The reason was that Concubine Zither had summoned him, so Wang Zhuo could not leave for the time being.
In reality, Wang Zhuo was pacing back and forth in his own courtyard anxiously, waiting for the experts from the eastern army to arrive. His superiors had ordered him to calm Niu Youde down, so all he could do was try his best to stall for time.
By now, how could Miao Yi not see that Wang Zhuo was deliberately stalling for time? However, he did not understand why Wang Zhuo was stalling like this.
Coincidentally, Huangfu Jun. Y transmitted a message to inform Miao Yi that her mother had told him to be careful. She had discovered that a large number of troops from the eastern army were heading this way. At the same time, many experts from the eastern army were making strange movements. Their exact whereabouts were unknown, but based on the movements of the large number of troops, they should be heading this way as well.
Fortunately, the Heavenly Palace had also ordered the Hero Ensemble to keep an eye on the movements of the eastern army. Otherwise, even Huangfu Duanrong would not be able to grasp the movements in time. Huangfu Duanrong would not dare to order the Hero Ensemble to keep an eye on the movements of the eastern army. If she really issued such an order, it would definitely arouse suspicion.
Miao Yi was more or less shocked when he heard the news. Only then did he realize the reason why Wang Zhuo was stalling. Just like how Wang Zhuo was worried that he would make a move, the movements of the eastern army also made him worried that the Ying family would make a move on him. If it was just the troops from the Gengzi Domain, he would not be afraid. However, the eastern army had mobilized so many experts and troops at once. Wasn't using the Netherworld Army to fight against the eastern army looking for excitement? Even if he could escape, the Netherworld Army would definitely suffer heavy losses.
Moreover, looking at the current situation, even if he met Wang Zhuo, he would not be able to find out anything with the latter being so guarded.
"Let's go!" Miao Yi decisively called Bluemoon and Yan Xiu to leave. At the same time, he ordered the two of them to prepare to break out of the encirclement. He was worried that they would surround him, so he also ordered the troops outside to prepare to attack.
As he left the guest courtyard, Miao Yi swept a glance at Fang Aolin and the others who were watching him leave.
They did not encounter any obstacles along the way, and the three of them left without a hitch.
"He's gone?" Wang Zhuo, who was in the Inner Yard on the mountain, was baffled when he heard the news. He didn't know why Miao Yi had suddenly left.
After confirming that Miao Yi had indeed left, Wang Zhuo hurriedly invited Fang Aolin over to meet him. At the same time, he also asked Miao Yi for the reason behind his departure.
"He's gone?" Fang Aolin was also puzzled. He thought that Miao Yi had come to meet Wang Zhuo.
After meeting up with the troops that were waiting for him, Miao Yi immediately left. He sped through the starry skies, but on the way, he once again received Huangfu Jun. Y's message was about Fang Aolin. Huangfu Duanrong was in charge of the Great Ensemble's stores across the realm, so all the information would naturally go through her. She already had a rough understanding of Fang Aolin's situation. Without alerting anyone, Miao Yi only needed to do a quick check.
Only then did Miao Yi realize that Fang Aolin had gotten his position by killing Yan Su's husband. If it wasn't Huangfu Jun. When Y mentioned Y, Miao Yi had almost forgotten who Yan Su was. As for the rumors that Yan Su had thrown herself into Fang Aolin's embrace, Huangfu Duanrong could not confirm it with the information she had. The Great Ensemble did not dare to extend its reach too far, but it did indicate that it was indeed a possibility. That was because the previous Domain Chief of Geng Domain was Fang Aolin's friend. Yan Su's transfer here was probably related to Fang Aolin.
'Yan Su is in Geng Domain?' Miao Yi was a little taken aback. 'Does this mean that I was very close to Yan Su before?'
This time, he could confirm the relationship between Fang Aolin and Yan Su without the Great Ensemble's confirmation. He could more or less understand the reason why Fang Aolin had come here. 'It's really hard to let go of old ties!'
"Yan Xiu!" After pondering for a moment, Miao Yi called Yan Xiu over as he sped through the starry skies. He secretly instructed, "Take a few men with you and set up an ambush along the path between Geng Domain and Yishen Domain. Once you discover Fang Aolin and the others passing by, you must capture them. I want them alive. Do not let anyone know about this!"
