Chapter 130 Are You Surprised? Are You Shocked?
Zuo Qing then chose a group of disciples from the Moon God Hall.
Most of them were at the Star Rank or above, especially those in the upper grades of the Star Rank. Those selected were mostly younger ones, and Su Wen was the only one not at the Star Rank.
When Wu Lie saw that Su Wen would be following him to the headquarters, he was greatly disappointed.
The next day, they were about to leave. Everyone packed their things and bid farewell to those they were familiar with.
To Su Wen’s surprise, Murong Yan was also selected to enter the main hall!
At night, someone suddenly appeared in Su Wen’s room!
Su Wen suddenly opened his eyes and saw Fatty Ruan standing beside him with a smile on his face.
“How did you find this place?” Su Wen whispered.
Fatty Ruan laughed, “Don’t underestimate the Martial Inspectorate, we’re not trash.”
A bitter expression appeared on his face as he said, “I’ve already received news from Wu Lie. My Brother Su, how did you join the Moon Worship Sect? You even ate that Holy Spirit Pill. What if something unexpected happens?”
Su Wen smiled. “Don’t worry, that thing is useless to me!”
Fatty Ruan was overjoyed. “That’s great! Let’s hurry up and leave. I’ll bring people to destroy this hall later!”
Su Wen shook his head. “Then do you know the location of their main shrine?” Fatty Ruan laughed, “There’s no rush, let’s kill two of his high ranking experts first! Then we’ll slowly look for opportunities! The main thing is that we can’t always leave you in danger. Originally, we were worried that you were poisoned by the Holy Spirit Pill, but now we don’t have to worry anymore.” Su Wen glanced at him. “So you guys can’t solve that Holy Spirit Pill?” Fatty Ruan shook his head and said, “It’s hard to say. I’ve already sent someone to contact one of the pharmacological experts in the Inspectorate, Wang Song, to rush over. Before he arrives, we can’t be certain.”
Su Wen’s face was filled with ridicule. “Then let me tell you a piece of good news. Although I’m fine, Wu Lie has also taken that Holy Spirit Pill. If I leave, Wu Lie will have to leave as well. That pill might be useless to me, but it might not be useless to him. If it doesn’t work, Wu Lie will die. Are you surprised? Are you shocked?”
Fatty Ruan’s eyes widened!
“Wu… Wu… Lie?” He didn’t know what to say.
If Wu Lie died here… how would General Wu Kunhu react?
Fatty Ruan could not imagine…
He wanted to cry but had no tears. “Young Master Su, why did Wu Lie join the Moon Worship Sect as well?”
Su Wen immediately explained the situation and smiled. “Now, we are in the same boat. If one of us is exposed, the other one won’t be able to escape. Anyway, this is what happened. Do you think I should go with you now or continue to the main shrine?”
“Then I’ll have to trouble Brother Su.”
Fatty Ruan was going crazy.
It was bad enough that there was already one Su Wen!
And now there was another Wu Lie. What were they trying to do?
Fatty Ruan took out a jade bottle from his chest pocket and handed it to Su Wen. “This is a Fragrance Emitting Worm. Release one every 15 miles and we will be able to follow your trail.”
Su Wen narrowed his eyes and looked at the bottle before shaking his head. “I don’t want it!”
He said in a low voice, “Now that you have found this place, how you follow is your own business. If I use this thing, once I am discovered, I will definitely die!”
Fatty Ruan was stunned for a moment. Then, he quickly put away the Fragrance Emitting Worm and teased, “If you’re so afraid of death, why would you personally infiltrate the Moon Worship Sect?”
Su Wen naturally wouldn’t tell him that he couldn’t leave even if he wanted to. He said righteously, “Being afraid of death is different from courting death! As subjects, we are willing to risk our lives for His Majesty’s mission. However, we cannot lose our lives because of stupidity!” “Brother Su, you’re so righteous!” Ruan Ze said, “I’ll take my leave then.”
“Wait!” Su Wen stopped him and asked, “After you find their main shrine, what do you plan to do?”
Ruan Ze pondered for a moment and said, “The Moon Worship Sect’s Headquarters isn’t together with the branch halls. There are only five experts of Earth Rank there. We just need to call another team to fight together! We’ll first destroy the headquarters and then clear out the branch halls!”
Su Wen flew into a rage. “How can this be? Even a lion must use its full strength to hunt a rabbit. You only have two teams, and the power of the Moon Worship Sect’s headquarters is known to have at least five Earth Rank experts. There might be others who are unknown. When the time comes, I’ll be in the depths of the enemy’s formation. What if something unexpected happens?”
Ruan Ze :”…”
What happened to not being afraid of death?
“Then what Brother Su means is…”
Su Wen moved closer to him and said in a low voice, “Go and find Wu Kunhu. That guy has an army under his command and his cultivation is high. With him around, wouldn’t it be a piece of cake for a mere Moon Worship Sect?”
Ruan Ze was a little hesitant. “This is the Martial Inspectorate’s mission after all…”
“Who asked Wu Lie to join the Worship Moon Sect by himself? Do we still have the responsibility to look after his child? If he doesn’t go and Wu Lie dies, he might take his anger out on you. But if he goes and Wu Lie dies, can he still blame you?”
It had to be said that Su Wen’s words directly persuaded Ruan Ze!
To put it bluntly, who could be 100% sure that nothing unexpected would happen?
It was better to be safe than sorry.
Ruan Ze took his leave after that.
Su Wen also felt much more at ease. After all, the people from the Martial Inspectorate had already arrived.
The next morning, Su Wen left the Moon God Hall with Zuo Qing.
“Brothers! I’m leaving! After I leave, you can’t slack off. Before every meal, you must thank the Cult Master for his kindness!”
Su Wen loudly bid farewell to his ‘brothers’ in the Moon Worship Sect.
Su Wen would never forget that they contributed a lot of Emotional Value points to him.
While there was a high chance that these people would be killed by the Martial Inspectorate in the future…
There was no way around it. Who told them to follow the wrong boss?
Finally, Zuo Qing left with Su Wen and the others.
On the other side, Wu Kunhu’s army advanced steadily, forcing the rebel army into retreat.
A large number of rebels were also killed.
However, Wu Kunhu did not know that after the rebels dispersed, they were organized and taken away again.
They had completely gone off the grid, without identities just like an illegal immigrant. Even if they were to die, no one would know of their existence.
However, these citizens had no choice. Without food, they would starve to death!
They had already lost everything.
His family, friends, houses, lands, and now even their identities.
In the rebel army camp, the rebel leaders were all smiles.
They didn’t look like they had just lost.
A man smiled and said, “That’s enough, everyone. Our cooperation ends here. The number of strong men each family has will also end here. What we need now is peace and stability in the Li Prefecture. We need to digest the benefits this time.”
They were in no hurry. Everyone would disperse before Wu Kunhu’s army arrived.
Li Jue coldly walked out of the camp. He was the representative from Moon Worship Sect!
As one of the four envoys of the Moon Worship Sect’s Sect Master, he was responsible for jointly organizing the rebel army with the various aristocratic families and sects, as well as gathering young and able men..
“It’s about time for the show to end here. We have less than 5,000 strong young men left. If we send them back to the headquarters and distribute them to the various branch halls, it should be barely enough!” he muttered to himself.
