Chapter 468 Sneaking Back to Mingdu
"Little fool! I'm not kidding you now! You've used all those safe houses?" Ye Nanxiao said through gritted teeth.
"Yeah, we used it, so what? Our partners won't give it to us?" Orange said matter-of-factly.
Ye Nanxiao was very puzzled. He had built at least twenty safe houses in Mingdu, so why were they all used up?
When will Orange (the company) field a large mobile force?
Is this the start of a rebellion?
Ye Nanxiao inwardly scorned Xu Tianran with frustration.
What big incident have you caused this time?
Although Xu Tianran is indeed either courting death or on the path to it, the problem is that at this point in time, Jing Hongchen hasn't given up the fight yet.
It is impossible for Xu Tianran to raise the banner of persecuting all mankind now.
After a slight silence, Ye Nanxiao asked again, "What happened? Are you alright?"
Hearing Ye Nanxiao's concern for her, Ju Zi's resentment dissipated considerably.
"A few minor disturbances, just some scrapes, you bastard fox. If you trust me, I'm safe here," Orange said.
Sitting next to Ju Zi, Feng Shiyi rolled her eyes. She didn't understand why the boss called this woman a simpleton.
How did the boss come to associate the word "憨" (hān, meaning simple or honest) with oranges?
During the time Feng Shiyi worked for Ju Zi, she witnessed Ju Zi's ruthless and decisive side many times.
Faced with more than a dozen assassinations and ambushes, big and small, this woman didn't even blink. Even when she was injured, she didn't utter a sound and continued to calmly direct the counterattack.
Even Feng Shiyi, who came from an assassin background, was amazed by the orange.
Orange merely glanced at the injuries that she considered extremely serious.
This woman is ruthless to her enemies, but even more ruthless to herself.
She had to personally confirm that the enemy was dead before she could spare the time to treat her injuries.
According to Orange herself, unless the injury is fatal, she wants to watch the enemy breathe their last.
Through the communication soul tool, Ye Nanxiao did not know the severity of Ju Zi's injuries, but he could guess that Ju Zi would most likely not tell the truth.
"Are you short-staffed?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
"We're really short," Orange said. She had purged some powerful families who were dissatisfied with Xu Tianran, and apart from her trusted confidants like Twelve Nights, almost all of her men had been wiped out.
Fortunately, Feng Shiyi brought a lot of manpower, otherwise Ju Zi would be a commander without any troops now.
"Wait for me, I'll be back soon," Ye Nanxiao said, seemingly a little worried. "Don't do anything foolish before I get back."
In Ye Nanxiao's eyes, Ju Hanhan is a big fool who is willing to pay any price to achieve his goal, even if the price is unbearable for him.
Upon hearing Ye Nanxiao's words, Ju Zi, who was on the other end of the communication device, immediately softened her cold and stern expression.
A warm feeling spread through her heart, making Orange seem unable to feel the pain of her injuries.
"Okay, I'll settle the score with you when I get back!" Orange said with a smile.
Putting away the encrypted communication soul tool, Ye Nanxiao turned to Ye Guyi and said, "Guyi, let's go to Mingdu first. That person can ensure our safe infiltration of Mingdu."
Ye Guyi nodded, about to spread her angel wings.
Ye Nanxiao tossed a flying soul tool to Ye Guyi, saying, "Use this; your angelic holy light is too dazzling."
Holding the flying soul tool in her hands, Ye Guyi reluctantly folded her wings.
In her eyes, her own wings were the most useful.
This broken iron box is incredibly heavy.
Mingdu, Aodu Chamber of Commerce.
Li Yuanren stood cautiously by the door, acting as a helpful assistant in opening it, his gaze subtly sweeping over the group of women who occupied Ye Nanxiao's office.
The three female warriors of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, the Qiuwu sisters, the boss's second best employee, Lord Eleven, and the mysterious boss's business partner, who is said to be a big shot from the palace, a mysterious woman.
The five women were gathered together, subtly splitting into two factions.
Qiu Tong watched as Ju Zi put down the soul communication device in her hand. When Feng Shiyi connected, she directly turned on the speakerphone function, so the three sisters naturally heard Ye Nanxiao's voice as well.
Akiha recognized the voice of her master immediately, but because Little Leaf No. 3 had disappeared suddenly, they were very worried and did not cause a scene with Orange.
Now that they had confirmed Ye Nanxiao was alright, sparks flew between them again.
"Sir, may I ask what your relationship is with our boss?"
To Li Yuanren's surprise, it was Qiu Wu, the gentlest of the three sisters, who broke the silence first.
As the eldest of the three Qinglong sisters, Qiuwu has always been gentle and kind, giving people a warm and welcoming feeling.
But now, Li Yuanren could detect some dissatisfaction in Qiu Wu's voice.
Feng Shiyi held her teacup, turned her body to the side, ignoring Qiu Tong's gaze; this invisible battle had nothing to do with her.
Orange wore a fox mask to hide her expression.
"What kind of relationship do you think I have with that bastard fox?" Orange asked with a smile.
A hint of resentment appeared on Qiu Wu's face; Ju Zi's tone was far too ambiguous.
"You bastard! Akiha doesn't think you're a good person!" Akiha clenched her little fists and stared wide-eyed at Tachibana.
"Are you trying to cheat the boss?! Qiuye won't let you succeed!"
Akiha, who is the size of a little girl, waved her chubby fists.
Although the scene looked somewhat cute and funny, Ju Zi could clearly feel the real gust of wind that swept past her ears when Qiu Ye swung his fist.
"Where did this little guy get such powerful strength? Where did that bastard fox find all his people?" Orange was very surprised. Why were all the people Ye Nanxiao found so strong?
The information Feng Shiyi gave him showed that the little guy in front of him had a Martial Soul called Azure Winged Dragon and his Soul Power had already reached level 50.
Moreover, the time spent on cultivation is not long, even very short, less than half the cultivation time of a normal Soul Master!
Furthermore, Qiuye's cultivation level is the lowest among the three sisters.
"Little sister, you're mistaken! I've always wanted to protect that rascal fox, who is also your boss!" Orange laughed.
Feng Shiyi wasn't paying attention and had her tea snatched away.
Does Ye Nanxiao need protection?
"This woman is indeed a cunning and scheming person." Feng Shiyi used Ye Nanxiao's usual evaluation.
Akiha looked puzzled by Ju Zi's words, resting her little finger on her chin and asking, "Protect the boss? Are you some kind of good guy?"
"Yes, I'm a really good person, but only to your boss." Seeing Qiuye's puzzled look, Ju Zi couldn't help but reach out and rub Qiuye's little head.
Seeing this, Qiu Tong seriously doubted whether her younger sister was mentally unstable. Ju Zi didn't seem like a good person at all.
"So that's how it is, it's to protect the boss!" Qiu Wu said, a gentle smile returning to her face.
Qiu Tong's neck, like a rusty machine, jerked as she turned her head to look at her sister.
When your mother was pregnant with you and your two sisters, did she allocate all her intelligence to you?
Li Yuanren was trembling; he was about to burst into laughter.
As the president of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, who was pushed into the public eye by Ye Nanxiao, Li Yuanren was able to guess some of Ju Zi's identity.
For example, when the royal family was cracking down on the underground forces and rare metal merchants in the capital, the Aodu Chamber of Commerce was surrounded by the army. Everyone was extremely nervous when three figures came with an imperial edict and dispersed the besieging army.
Li Yuanren remembered clearly that when the three men produced the imperial edict, there was a peculiar pattern on the lower left corner of the paper.
It looks like a metallic orange.
Each of the three wore a small metal orange on their waist, wrist, and chest necklace, respectively.
Subsequently, Li Yuanren received news that the Aodu Chamber of Commerce had been recognized by the Sun Moon Imperial Family.
When the mention of the royal family came up, and when he thought of the undisguised metallic orange pattern, Li Yuanren quickly guessed that it was a former high-ranking member of the Sun and Moon Royal Family, namely the orange.
However, Ye Nanxiao had instructed him not to reveal what he saw, and Li Yuanren deliberately controlled himself, not making any further guesses.
He simply handed over the highest action token of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce.
Li Yuanren quietly slipped out of the room. He felt that if he stayed any longer, he would definitely burst out laughing. It was better to be a doorman outside the door, since his boss's room was soundproof.
Qiu Tong glanced at Li Yuanren, who had left the room, and looked at Ju Zi sitting in Ye Nanxiao's boss's chair. She asked, "Whether you protect the boss or not, I don't know, but Captain Eleven and Commander Lan are both on your side. I suppose you have big ambitions."
"Your relationship with the boss is not simple. If possible, could you let us hear the boss's orders with our own ears? If the boss approves, the Valkyrie will serve you." Qiu Tong said, turning her gaze to Feng Shiyi, who was drinking tea and trying to stay out of it.
Feeling Qiu Tong's sharp gaze, Feng Shiyi couldn't help but sit up slightly, a hint of satisfaction in her eyes.
The owner of a top-tier dragon-type martial soul was able to put pressure on him, a quasi-Soul Douluo, despite having the cultivation of a Soul King.
"The boss has a good eye," Feng Shiyi praised. "Your hands-off manager is on his way back. You can ask him yourself then. Who knows, we might even be comrades in the same unit by then."
"Companions?" Qiuye blinked. Wasn't Captain Eleven already their companion?
Qiu Tong lowered her eyes. It seemed that Feng Shiyi had another identity, a department that was above their authority.
This surprised Qiu Tong. The three sisters were taken in by Ye Nanxiao and trained to be the Valkyries of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce. They were basically at the top of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, and their status was only below that of the president, Li Yuanren.
What Feng Shiyi meant by her words was to tell her that above the Valkyrie, there was a department that the three sisters were unaware of.
"I didn't expect the boss to be so lazy, but actually he's been planning quite a lot." Qiu Tong clenched her fist secretly. The departments they didn't know about now, they would have the authority to know once their cultivation level increased.
