Most importantly, there were some things that he couldn't let outsiders know about. He couldn't let this woman report this to the Palace Lord. Otherwise, both he and Miao Yi would be in deep trouble.
"Everyone, leave!" Yan Beihong waved his hand to dismiss the Advisors who had just arrived. He then waved at Hong Xiu and Hong Fu and said, "You two leave as well!"
Seeing that the surrounding people had all left, Godfather Liu said indifferently, "Should I leave too?"
"I wouldn't dare!" Yan Beihong sighed. "What is Lord Liu trying to do?"
Lord Liu enunciated each word clearly, "So you are the real Yan Beihong?"
There was no way he could hide this any longer. Yan Beihong smiled bitterly and nodded. "I have always been Yan Beihong."
Lord Liu gritted his teeth and asked, "Who is the other 'Yan Beihong'?"
Yan Beihong sighed, "Lord Sixth, why do you have to ask a question you already know the answer to? Things are as they were in the first place. It's just that someone was swapped at the Western Constellations Palace to receive the reward. Otherwise, forget about getting past the Western Constellations Palace, we wouldn't have been able to deal with them when we returned."
Lord Liu's chest heaved up and down as he said, "How bold of you to swap identities in the Western Constellations Palace and lie to your superiors. Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?"
Yan Beihong chuckled. "Lord Liu, you're exaggerating. Our statuses are lowly. As long as no one says anything, no one will remember us. Even if we have the ability to attract the attention of our superiors in the future … if we do, it wouldn't be considered a heinous crime to help each other claim their rewards, would it? "
What he was implying was, 'It's unlikely that someone with your background would come to us.'
"Why did you swap identities?" Lord Liu was a little agitated.
Yan Beihong shrugged. "I don't know either. In any case, the other one wanted to swap identities, so I swapped with him. Lord Liu, if you have any questions, you should ask him himself. I believe you'll know better if you ask him."
It was indeed inappropriate for him to comment on the matters between these two siblings.
Lord Liu stared at him for a while, then suddenly turned around and flew away.
Yan Beihong looked up, then quickly followed suit. The two of them were headed in the same direction, one in front and one behind.
He had to hurry over and inform Miao Yi as well. It wasn't that he had intentionally leaked the information. It was just that this woman had run right into him. It was impossible to guard against. Who knew!
Godfather Liu, who was flying in front, waved his hand. The illusory image of a golden condor appeared and enveloped her as she sped up. Soon, they had shaken off Yan Beihong.
She really didn't expect it. She really didn't expect it.
She and her senior sister had come to the First Earthly Road Chamber of Commerce to check on the accounts and knew that Yan Beihong was in the First Earthly Road. The incident at the Antarctic Ice Palace was still fresh in his mind. After many days of hesitation, he still decided to teach that Niu Er a lesson. Who knew that when Yan Beihong found him, it wasn't the Yan Beihong he had always thought he was. Instead, he found the real Yan Beihong.
That Yan Beihong, that Niu Er, his real name was actually Miao Yi!
That was the name of her big brother. The first time she heard this name in the Sea of Constellations, she was shocked. However, after confirming it, she found out that this' Miao Yi 'was indeed not her big brother.
So the man who had appeared by her side multiple times was the real Miao Yi.
This name was immediately taken into account. Immediately, the silhouette was similar to the one he had when he was younger.
She remembered the way Miao Yi looked at her. She remembered how casually Miao Yi addressed her as' Yue Yao '. She remembered how Miao Yi said he would give those things to her as a' dowry '. She remembered how Miao Yi suddenly gave her the' Ice Face 'that he had obtained.
So she had been overthinking things all along!
"Dowry …" Godfather Liu suddenly remembered how he had looked down on Miao Yi for being too little, causing him to feel sad. He instantly lost control of his emotions and covered his mouth with his hand as he sobbed. The tears on his beautiful face were like a broken string of beads as he covered his mouth and shook his head vigorously. Sob sob …
South Edict Manor. Inside the Grand Assembly Hall, Yang Qing announced his decision to defect to the Wood Traversing Palace in front of his core members.
The group of people below him exchanged glances. They were all a little hesitant. Why would he want to defect to that 'traitor Miao' if he was doing fine here? Based on the Manor Head's cultivation, it didn't seem likely that he would be promoted to Hall Master, right? If there were no benefits to be had, why would he go to such an unfamiliar place and start all over again? It hadn't been easy for him to manage this place.
However, as Yang Qing's old subordinate, since he had already spoken … It was hard for them to say no …
Yang Qing swept his gaze across everyone's faces and knew what they were thinking. He slowly said, "I naturally won't go if there are no benefits to be had! All of you have followed me for many years. You should know that I am not a reckless person! If I go there, I will have the power to appoint and dismiss Manor Head and those below him. This is a rare opportunity. Do as you see fit. I won't force you. "
It wasn't hard to understand what he meant when he said this. Everyone's eyes lit up and soon shouted in unison, "We are willing to follow you, Milord!"
This was expected, so Yang Qing didn't delay any further. He left his throne and stood up, saying solemnly, "Time is of the essence. Hall Master Miao doesn't have much time to wait for us, and we can't possibly take everyone from the two Manors with us. When you return, immediately select the elites who can help you start all over again and quickly report the names to me. I will report it to the Hall Master for his approval."
"Yes!" Everyone accepted the order excitedly and left.
Driven by the benefits, the group was full of motivation and didn't stop for a moment. After returning to their own territory at top speed, they quickly gathered the elites to ask for their opinions. They couldn't just kidnap them without the other party's approval.
Mount Shaotai. Inside the Assembly Hall, a group of people cheered 'Mountain Chieftain is wise!' and quickly dispersed to make preparations.
Qin Weiwei was still sitting on the Mountain Chieftain's throne, with Hong Mian and Lu Liu standing to her left and right. Below the empty hall, Gongsun Yu stood there in a daze.
"Gongsun Yu, are you really not willing to leave with me?" Qin Weiwei asked, looking down at him from above.
Gongsun Yu abruptly raised his head. He didn't know where he got his courage from, but his eyes shone with the last glimmer of hope. He loudly advised, "Mountain Chieftain, you mustn't go! Who is Miao Yi? Everyone in the world knows that he is a traitor Miao! We will not have a good ending if we stay in the same room with such a treacherous and vicious person! Mountain Chieftain, the fate of the Traversing Water Palace cultivators is a good example! I sincerely ask Mountain Chieftain to ask the Manor Head to retract his orders. It's not too late to turn back now. There's still time! "
Qin Weiwei furrowed her brows. She didn't like hearing these words. If it weren't for the fact that she had followed him for so many years, she wouldn't have bothered wasting her breath on him. "The Manor Head has already made up his mind. There is no changing it. You can decide for yourself whether to leave or stay!"
Gongsun Yu's expression was mournful. Today, he realized that he was nothing in the grand scheme of things. He couldn't change anything. His own fate was no longer in his own hands. He wanted to go with them, but he didn't dare to. Miao Yi had caused such a ruckus all those years ago. Now that Miao Yi was in such a high position, wouldn't it be suicide to serve him?
"Mountain Chieftain, I have a grudge against Miao Yi. If I serve him, I won't be able to keep my life!" Gongsun Yu smiled bitterly as he shook his head.
Hong Mian and Lu Liu exchanged glances, thinking to themselves, 'I'm afraid that's what you're really thinking!'
Qin Weiwei's gaze turned slightly cold. If Gongsun Yu had said these words in the beginning, she would have said that she would protect him. As long as she spoke, she believed that with Miao Yi's current position, he wouldn't be so calculative with a small fry like him. However, Gongsun Yu just had to come up with a bunch of reasons. His intentions were damnable, and his true nature was completely exposed. It was truly annoying!
Having been a Mountain Chieftain for so many years, she naturally had the temper of a superior. Qin Weiwei scoffed coldly, then immediately stood up and strode away.
Hong Mian and Lu Liu looked at the dumbfounded Gongsun Yu, then followed behind her with a slight excitement. After taking a detour, they were going to look for Lord Miao again. Finally, they didn't have to worry about becoming Gongsun Yu's concubine anymore...
After Yang Qing finished collecting the list of names sent over, he found Miao Yi and asked, "Milord, there are more than two hundred people. Will Hall Master Huo agree to take so many people away at once?"
Miao Yi smiled, "How could he possibly not agree? Have you forgotten that he is my sworn brother? It's only natural for an Elder Brother to help his Younger Brother out a little. Naturally, he wouldn't refuse. The document he gave me is proof of that. "
He could fool others with these words! Yang Qing muttered to himself, 'God knows what kind of tricks you used.' Putting aside his thoughts, he muttered, "Milord, there's one more thing. There are quite a number of people from the three major sects on this list. As you know, I have quite a number of people from the three major sects under my command."
Naturally, he knew about the conflict between Miao Yi and the three major sects.
Miao Yi tapped his fingers on the tea table and slowly stood up. With his hands behind his back, he paced back and forth in the pavilion at the top of the mountain and asked, "What are you trying to say?"
Yang Qing quickly got into his role. He was a smart man and knew what he had to do. He followed Miao Yi's footsteps and asked, "I want to ask you something. Is Milord seeking a quick revenge, or do you want to sit on the sidelines?"
Miao Yi leaned on the railing and said, "I want both."
Yang Qing was speechless. He realized that this guy didn't play by the rules. There was no point in beating around the bush with him, so he simply said, "Milord previously told me about the current situation between the two Halls. I believe that if Milord only seeks a quick revenge against the three major sects, it would not be a wise move. Continuing to fight with the three major sects will only exhaust Milord's own energy. In other words, Milord is currently in charge of two Halls. Even if you win, you will only win against the disciples of the three major sects within the boundaries of the two Halls, and even more disciples of the three major sects spread throughout the entire Fifth Earthly Branch. The enmity between Milord and the three major sects cannot be allowed to deepen. Otherwise, the three major sects will not allow Milord to grow. Because once Milord's influence grows, there will definitely be more disciples of the three major sects falling into misfortune. This will affect the huge benefits of the three major sects. They will definitely think of ways to curb Milord's growth. This will be detrimental to Milord's future. "
Miao Yi sneered, "Don't tell me that as a Hall Master, I have to lower my head to my own subordinates?"
"Milord's words are incorrect!" Yang Qing waved his hand and said, "I dare ask Milord. Does Milord know why the three major sects have not made a move after finding out that Milord has gone to the two Halls?"
Miao Yi furrowed his brows. "I was wondering about this as well. Many sects have come to me with gifts. The three major sects clearly know that I hold the future of so many of their disciples in my hands, yet they remain indifferent … Could there be some hidden reason behind this?"
