Hearing this, Miao Yi's heart tightened. With his back facing everyone, he shook the Star Bell in his hand and replied, 'I don't understand what Mister Wei means.'
Bluemoon and the rest looked at his back as he stood at the edge of the cliff. They didn't know who he was contacting.
Wei Shu: 'If you offend too many people, karma will come! I can't do anything about it if you want to feign ignorance, Governor. I'm just giving you a friendly reminder. If you really have a relationship with the Vitality Sect, then don't harm them. Hand over the Vitality Sect and continue to operate the Vitality Sundry Goods Store. No one will say no to money, so they will naturally be safe and sound. Why do you want them to die with you?
Miao Yi: 'What if I don't hand them over?'
Wei Shu: 'Either the Vitality Sect dies with you, then I can answer to the shareholders of the general goods store. They killed the Vitality Sect, so they can't blame us. Or they will snatch the Vitality Sect's people back. Do you think it will affect me whether you hand them over or not? I just don't want the Vitality Sect to suffer … Let's not talk about hypocrisy. We can't be bothered. You should be more self-aware. '
Miao Yi: 'I appreciate Mister Wei's good intentions.'
Wei Shu: 'Then take care!'
While they were contacting each other, Pang Guan silently paced back and forth in the study of Marshal Mao Lu's residence with his hands behind his back. Chen Huaijiu's gaze followed him back and forth.
After a while, Chen Huaijiu said, "Marshal, it's time to decide whether you want the people or the money."
Pang Guan stopped and sighed, "Can I only choose one?"
Chen Huaijiu smiled bitterly, "Marshal, do you think Niu Youde can avoid this? If you think he can, then you can ask for the people. If you think he can't, then wouldn't it be a pity to waste the money? "
Pang Guan lowered his head and pondered for a while, then asked, "What if he refuses to give me the money? Wouldn't he know what I'm trying to do once the matter is exposed? "
Chen Huaijiu: "That's easy. Try your best. If he refuses, then we will tell him the truth. We won't offend him. If he's willing, we will silence him once we get the money! Even if he has a backup plan, he won't be able to get past this! "
Pang Guan pondered, then nodded slowly and waved his hand.
"Yes!" Chen Huaijiu immediately contacted Miao Yi.
On the other side, Miao Yi had just ended his call with Wei Shu. He was still holding back his anger when Chen Huaijiu suddenly sent him a message. He was a little surprised. Grabbing the starbell, he asked, "What is it, Steward Chen?
Chen Huaijiu: "I wouldn't dare. Governor, I have some. to tell, I have some good news. The Marshal has finally made arrangements for the Marshal. You can go now."
Miao Yi was taken aback. He thought Xing Ling was here to warn him, but it turned out to be about this matter. His expression gradually darkened. Xing Ling replied, "Steward Chen, I'm sure you know that I've just taken in fifty million troops. I have too many matters to attend to, so I can't leave at once. How about waiting for a while?
Marshal, to Marshal. know, "Wei Yu, the Yi," Chen Marshal is Tian. is. have. Marshal, he said, he, "Marshal," Marshal, "Yi" t Long say, "Marshal, I, I, he. he. Wei 'Wei". he.
As soon as he heard this, Miao Yi's stomach instantly burned with rage. A thought flashed through his mind — Pang Guan wanted to murder him for his wealth, and kill him to silence him!
The timing was too coincidental. Pang Guan invited him to the Desolate Wastelands as soon as he found out someone wanted to kill him. It was hard for him not to be suspicious. He pretended that he didn't have time to test the waters. As expected, he was in a hurry!
If he hadn't just received Wei Shu's notice, he might have really been fooled. Pang Guan wanted to get the item before those people made their move. Pang Guan should have known that someone was going to make a move on him!
Miao Yi immediately replied with a cold expression, "Butler Chen, is Marshal trying to kill me?"
Chen Huaijiu's expression changed. He calmly replied, "Why do you say that? Why would the Marshal make a move against you? If you have a backup plan, won't the Marshal's treasure hunt be exposed? "
Miao Yi: "I'm afraid the Marshal's men are among those preparing to attack the Netherworld Governor's manor."
This time, Chen Huaijiu's expression changed completely. He looked at Pang Guan and smiled bitterly. "He already knows someone wants to attack the Governor's manor. I'm afraid we have overreached ourselves this time."
Pang Guan was shocked. "How is that possible? The higher-ups only informed us to make preparations to secretly mobilize our men. No one below knows about this yet. How did he know? "
Chen Huaijiu smiled bitterly. "Indeed, he already knows. He even asked if the Marshal's men were among those attacking the Governor's manor. Someone close to the Princes must have leaked the news. Didn't they say that he was the force that Lord Qing supported for Yuan Venerate Qing? With Lord Qing's information network, it's not surprising that he knew about this beforehand. "
Miao Yi sent another message: Why is Steward Chen not saying anything? Could it be that he has a guilty conscience?
"He's asking if he's feeling guilty." Chen Huaijiu smiled bitterly at Pang Guan again.
Pang Guan also smiled bitterly. He had really overreached himself. He raised his chin slightly. "Then tell him everything. It's up to him whether he accepts it or not. After all, it's been a long time since that incident. He can't threaten me with that anymore! Ying Jiuguang is also dead. No one in the Ying family can hold me responsible for the incident where the Imperial Garden leaked the news and killed Ying Jiuguang's grandson. "
Chen Huaijiu nodded and replied, "Since the Viceroy already knows, then let's be frank. Our commander really can't help you with this matter this time. We had no choice but to do this. If it were you, what would you have done?"
Miao Yi: "That's easy! I'm not an unreasonable person. I want to know why they attacked me this time. "
Chen Huaijiu: "The Marshal doesn't know the specifics. He only knows that the families didn't want to mobilize so many people at first. It was Heavenly King Guang who pushed for it!"
'Lord Guang?' Logically speaking, there was no need to mobilize so many people. Was it necessary for the Heavenly Kings to work together to deal with him? After all, there was still Lord Qing's influence. It seemed that Lord Guang was the one behind this!
Now that he thought about it, it was not too surprising that the Lord of Guangling could do this. After killing Gao Yan, the Lord of Guangling could make such a big commotion to mess with him. It could be seen that he was not a broad-minded person. The rejection of the marriage last time must have really angered that person, so it was reasonable for him to make trouble again. This was purely a revenge to avenge a personal grudge.
Come to think of it, if he was Lord Guang and had the opportunity to convince the others to work together to get rid of him, he probably wouldn't be so lenient. If it was only Lord Guang's family that had to bear the consequences, he probably wouldn't have done this.
However, he also understood that Yang Qing's plan had been messed up by him. He already knew that those people wouldn't let the matter rest at Heaven's Avenue, so he had made preparations to deal with them. Now that something like this had happened, faced with absolute power, all his plans were for naught.
His thoughts turned, and he asked again, "How many people are you planning to send to deal with me?"
Chen Huaijiu: "Four hundred million people!"
Miao Yi sucked in a breath of cold air. He didn't think that they would send so many people. The Four Heavenly Kings would actually send eight times their number to deal with him. They were thinking too highly of him. Before this, he still had the thought of fighting them head-on, but now he completely lost that thought. He instantly felt a huge pressure.
No wonder Pang Guan was in such a hurry to retrieve the treasures from the Primordial Wastelands.
Miao Yi: "Can Pang Guan help me?"
Chen Huaijiu: "Governor, are you joking? How? The Nether Hell is such a big place, and there aren't any defenses. With so many people stuffed in, there will be people everywhere. I don't think there's even a need to leak military intelligence, right? You can't possibly ask the Marshal to turn around and help you fight, right? "
Miao Yi: "I'm sorry about the treasures from the Primordial Wastelands. I can't give them to Pang Guan now. We'll talk about it after we get through this."
Chen Huaijiu: "Alright, I'll wait for the good news from you, Governor!"
With his hands behind his back, Miao Yi paced back and forth on the top of the mountain, repeatedly muttering the three words' Lord Guang Ling '. He gritted his teeth in hatred.
Wen Ze and the others watched as he paced back and forth on the cliff not far away. They knew that he was thinking of a way to deal with the situation at the Celestial Street, so they didn't disturb him.
Fortunately, the group of people still didn't know that an army of four hundred million was about to attack. Otherwise, they would definitely be shocked. Wen Ze, who came over to be the Deputy Governor, would probably be the first to be dumbfounded.
After muttering about Lord Guang Ling for a while, Miao Yi also lost his temper. He decided that he couldn't let Lord Guang Ling have a good time either. He then took out the Star Bell and contacted the Guang Clan's Chief Steward, Gou Yue.
Wen Ze and the others didn't know who he was contacting through the Star Bell.
After Gou Yue got through, he asked him directly, "Governor, why are you in the mood to contact this old servant to pass the time?"
There was a hint of sarcasm in his words.
Miao Yi sternly told him, "Mister Gou, I have seriously thought about what you said last time. Miss Mei 'er's beautiful figure has been lingering in my mind. I have decided that it is my honor to be the Prince's son-in-law. When do you think Miss Mei' er will come over?"
"..." Standing among the pavilions, Gou Yue was stunned. The sarcasm on his face froze. For a moment, he didn't know how to reply to Miao Yi. He was a little dumbfounded.
After being stunned for a while, he could only reply foolishly, "I can't make the decision on this matter. Let me report to the Prince first before replying."
Miao Yi, "Alright! Thank you, Mister Gou. "
After ending the call, Miao Yi sneered. He thought to himself, 'Lord Guang Ling, if you have the ability, then send your daughter over. Let's see if I dare to sleep with her. After sleeping with her, I will take the initiative to report to Lord Qing!'
He didn't think that Lord Guang Ling would agree to this matter. He was purely trying to disgust Lord Guang so that he wouldn't gloat behind his back.
He then took out the Star Bell and contacted Xiahou Chengyu. He informed him of the impending danger and asked Xiahou Chengyu to ask Lord Qing for help. It didn't matter if it would work or not, he still had to try.
Inside the Guang Ling Manor, Gou Yue kept the Star Bell in a daze. He turned to look at Lord Guang who was listening to the zither in the pavilion. Guang Mei 'er was playing the zither, and Lady Mei was giving pointers from the side.
Gou Yue covered his face with his hands and rubbed them fiercely. He didn't know what to say to Lord Guang. If the Prince knew that Niu Youde would agree to this matter, would he regret making a move too early?
