Chapter 075: Plotting the City of Slaughter
"It's fine, I'll handle my own matters. Don't think too much about it," Yang Chen said softly. "No, your matters are my matters. If I can help you, even if it costs me my life, I will do it!" Luo Qian said firmly.
"Silly girl. Let's go out and enjoy this peaceful life," Yang Chen suggested.
"Okay. Husband, I need to change," Luo Qian said charmingly.
"Alright, I'll help you change." The two figures walked quietly down the city streets, the man carrying a blood-red sword, his long black hair flowing in the wind. The woman was noble and pure, dressed in a pink fur coat, wearing a pink heart-shaped pendant on her chest and a tricolor ring on her hand.
"Qian'er, let's visit the City Lord's Mansion. Speaking of which, I've never been inside my own mansion," Yang Chen said.
"As you wish, husband," Luo Qian replied. At the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion stood two members of the Shadow Kill Brigade, their badges displaying an additional 'one' beneath the words 'Shadow Kill'.
"Greetings, City Lord, City Lord's Wife." Upon seeing Yang Chen's arrival, the two quickly knelt on one knee and respectfully said. "Get up," Yang Chen said lightly as he walked inside.
"Thank you, City Lord." The two slowly stood up and continued to guard the mansion.
"Qian'er, I noticed that the badges on those two just now are different from before?" Yang Chen asked.
"Yes, it's a method devised by Jiangnan to engrave the ranks of members on their badges. First, the badge cannot be worn by others; even if someone forges it, they can still feel your mark. Second, it allows people to clearly know their current rank. For example, those two outside—the 'one' on their chests represents a regular soldier; 'five' represents a squad leader; 'hundred' represents a hundred-man leader; 'thousand' represents a thousand-household leader," Luo Qian explained.
"Good idea! It also motivates them to train harder," Yang Chen laughed. "Jiangnan's third legion commander is quite impressive."
Speaking of legion commanders, what is that brat Tianci doing?"
"The fourth legion commander? That guy does nothing all day. I don't know where he found a compass; he sleeps during the day and stares at the stars at night. If Jiangnan hadn't protected him through me, Tianci would have been challenged by others long ago and lost his position as fourth legion commander."
"Outrageous!" Yang Chen shouted angrily. Then realizing he was too agitated, he calmed down and said, "I'll take care of this matter. Tianci is only at the Fighting King realm and doesn't focus on fighting techniques; besides, he has never fought anyone before. I'm afraid even someone at the Fighting Spirit realm could defeat him."
"Husband, are you protecting Tianci because of the Meteorological Sect?" Luo Qian asked.
"Not entirely."
"Ah." When Xie Yao saw Yang Chen approaching, she exclaimed and then knelt on one knee, saying, "Vice Commander of the Tian Sha Camp, Xie Yao, pays respects to the Leader and the Leader's wife."
"Get up," Yang Chen said.
"Leader Xie," Xie Yao continued, "if the Leader has nothing..."
"Husband, Qian'er suddenly remembered that the Yongbing Guild has some matters to attend to, so I'll head back first. Remember to come back for dinner tonight," Luo Qian left with understanding, and Yang Chen could only shake his head helplessly.
"Xie Yao, tell me about the Ying Sha Yongbing team," Yang Chen said.
"Yes, Leader."
"When there are no others around, just call me by my name. First, you should take me to a place where we can sit," Yang Chen said with a smile.
"Yes, Yang... Yang Chen," Xie Yao replied and then led Yang Chen in a certain direction. Yang Chen smiled slightly and discreetly held Xie Yao's hand. The latter gasped like a startled rabbit and quickly blushed. Under Xie Yao's guidance, they arrived at a secluded pavilion. After Yang Chen sat down, he pulled Xie Yao onto his lap and nestled her in his arms. "Now tell me about the Yongbing team," Yang Chen said.
"Currently, the Ying Sha Yongbing team has ten Dou Huang. Nine are camp leaders and four are legion leaders. I am the camp leader of Tian Sha Camp; the camp leader of Bloodthirsty Camp is Danqingzi; the camp leader of Seven Kill Camp is Li Jun; the camp leader of Breaking Army Camp is Li Zheng; the camp leader of Greedy Wolf Camp is Chen Qing; the camp leader of War Star Camp is Zhao Long; the camp leader of Lian Zhen Camp is He Bin; the camp leader of Giant Gate Camp is Yang Qian; and the camp leader of Lu Cun Camp is Li Fu. Our team has over a thousand Bai Zhang and nearly ten thousand Wu Zhang. Each stage of development is progressing quite well," Xie Yao explained.
"Yes, but that's still not enough. I don't have much time left; the calm before the storm is about to break. Notify everyone that tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, the Ying Sha Yongbing team will gather collectively. Also, have Jiang Nan come to see me later," Yang Chen instructed.
"Yes, Leader," Xie Yao responded. After speaking, she pressed her lips against the corner of Yang Chen's mouth and flew away.
"By the way, Leader, Divine Craftsman Tang Feng has been waiting for you in the reception room all day. Will you meet him?" Xie Yao's voice came from Sky.
"Tang Feng? Of course I will meet him," Yang Chen murmured. It took nearly ten minutes before he found the reception room under his subordinate's guidance, where Tang An and Tang Feng had already been waiting inside.
"Senior Tang, sorry to keep you waiting. How have you considered yesterday's matter?" Yang Chen walked slowly to the main seat and sat down gently as he asked.
"City Lord Yang, you already know my answer; why ask further?" Tang An replied bitterly.
"Oh?" Yang Chen looked at Tang An and did not say more.
Tang An understood and stood up, cupping his hands respectfully as he said, "Tang An pays respects to the City Lord." Tang Feng immediately followed suit and said, "Tang Feng pays respects to the City Lord."
"Alright." Yang Chen quickly stepped forward, grasping Tang An's hand and said, "With the assistance of both of you, I feel like I have wings like a tiger, ha ha."
"The City Lord flatters us," Tang An replied. At that moment, Jiang Nan walked in from outside, approached Yang Chen, knelt on one knee, and respectfully said, "Leader, you called for me?"
Yang Chen said, "Yes, you may rise." He then turned to Tang An and said, "Mr. Tang, it’s getting late today. Let's discuss the formation strategy tomorrow instead. How does that sound?"
"Everything is up to the City Lord." He then led Tang An out.
"Jiang Nan, I heard someone is trying to provoke the position of the Commander of the Heavenly Gift Legion?" Yang Chen inquired.
"That's right; someone is calculating this way. Does the Leader have any plans?" Jiang Nan asked.
"I have no specific plans. The position of Commander is equivalent to my status. I will announce it tomorrow morning. Jiang Nan, in a few days, Tian Yi and Li Mu will return. I will be leaving this place to head to the front lines of the Jia Shi Empire. I have a task for you: within three years, establish yourself in the City of Slaughter so that everyone respects you while avoiding any strong opponents. If things don’t work out, return to Loulan City. After all, the City of Slaughter is a place of Three Teachings and Nine Streams."
"Please rest assured, Leader. Have you forgotten my previous identity? Although I am not currently in the City of Slaughter, my twin brother will arrange everything for me," Jiang Nan confidently replied.
"Good, then I can leave here with peace of mind. Have Zhao Yu, Zhang Tian, and Li Qi come to see me," Yang Chen instructed.
"Yes, Leader." Jiang Nan retreated. Yang Chen sat back on his main seat, quietly waiting. In less than ten minutes, Zhang Tian and the others hurriedly arrived.
"Greetings, Leader."
