Chapter 109 The Great Purge of Fishing and Baiting, Plum Blossom Spy Dragon Cavalry Guard
The First Lady, dressed in a white and gold nightgown, sat barefoot on a fishing platform, fishing by the Tianshui Pond. Upon hearing what Ma Dalang said, the First Lady showed no emotion and did not even turn her head.
"Big Brother, you really care about Fourth Brother."
Upon hearing this, Ma Dalang felt a sudden tightness in his heart. He wondered if his mother had noticed that he was trying to steal his son away. But no, no, his mother was probably just asking casually. He hadn't met with Lao Si alone, so there shouldn't be any flaws.
“Mother, I’m just worried about the safety of my fourth brother. He is my fourth brother after all. How can I, as the eldest brother, just stand by and watch my own brother be plotted against and do nothing?”
The First Lady held a fishing rod in one hand and baited the pond with the other. She turned around with a smile and beckoned, "Big Brother, come here."
Upon seeing this, Ma Dalang quickly stepped forward, stood beside the First Lady, clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, saying, "Mother."
The First Lady pointed to the fish scrambling for food in the pond and said, "Brother, do you see? The pond water is murky. If you want to catch big fish, you have to be willing to bait the area. As long as you put in enough bait, those fish hiding at the bottom will all come to the surface to snatch the food."
"Look, can't you see all the fish in the pond?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Dalang was suddenly startled, his mind instantly clearing, and cold sweat poured down his back.
The First Lady glanced at Ma Dalang, patted the bait on her palm, and smiled faintly: "Dalang, I have taught you everything I should have. How much you can understand depends on yourself."
"Thank you for your teachings, Mother. I understand." Ma Dalang lowered his head, hiding the fear in his eyes.
He knew that the group of people and forces in the city who dared to covet the treasure were finished.
Mother is fishing, and she's even using the treasures of Xiyi City as bait to bait her fishing spot.
Those treacherous individuals in the city who dare to snatch food from their mothers' mouths will all be exposed.
Their every move was probably being watched by their mother.
Every single one of them is doomed.
It's likely that the Jianta army has already been deployed to the vicinity of Jianmen Pass and is lying in ambush.
It's possible that a bloody purge has already begun in the city.
"You may leave now. There's no need to worry about your fourth brother's safety; I have made arrangements." The First Lady smiled and reached out to touch Ma Dalang's cheek, then gently patted the back of his head.
"Mother, I take my leave." Ma Dalang clasped his hands together, bowed his head, and retreated.
After Ma Dalang left.
The First Lady turned to Qiu Chengde, who was waiting ten steps away, and asked, "Chengde, how is the matter being handled?"
Qiu Chengde clasped his hands and said, "Madam, the Plum Blossom Secret Service has eliminated all the forces involved in this treasure hunt. There are no survivors, and the stronghold of the mastermind, the Dream Fulfillment Organization, in this city has been destroyed."
"The God of War has led four hundred Dragon Riders to the vicinity of Jianmen Pass. As long as Silang encounters danger when passing through Jianmen Pass, he can provide timely support and wipe out this gang of thieves in one fell swoop."
Plum Blossom Spy Agency, the most secretive and darkest spy agency in Sword Tower.
They engage in special tasks such as espionage, assassination, reconnaissance, and protecting the core high-ranking members of the Sword Tower.
They abandoned their original names, family, friends, and everything they could give up; their lives were reduced to mere code names.
They silently guard the Sword Tower and secretly serve the First Lady; they are the sharpest blade in the First Lady's hand.
At the Lady's command, all the forces in Sword Tower City that participated in this treasure hunt were wiped out without a trace. They were all silently exterminated during the night, and their bodies were not even found in the crematorium.
The First Lady gave a soft "hmm": "Chengde, afterward send a letter to the Dream Realization Headquarters in the capital, saying that I killed the people and that I destroyed the stronghold, and ask them to send someone who knows the rules to rebuild the stronghold."
Qiu Chengde cupped his hands and said, "Yes."
The First Lady gently frowned and sighed softly, "Ah, being a mother is not easy. She worries herself sick over her children. Fourth son, now that you've crossed the border, I can't help you anymore. You'll have to rely on yourself from now on."
Qiu Chengde smiled slightly: "Madam has done enough. After Silang leaves the country, there will be Plum Blossom spies along the way to protect him, so there shouldn't be any major problems."
The First Lady nodded slightly and mentioned someone: "Have you investigated Mr. Liao's background? Why did the Fourth Prince take him out of the city? What is his background? With his peak fourth-realm cultivation, why is he hiding in the archives?"
Qiu Chengde clasped his hands in response: "Madam, we have not yet found out. We only know that this Mr. Liao came to Jianta seven years ago and has been staying in the archives of the Night Wanderer's Office ever since. We cannot find out about his previous experiences."
The First Lady frowned slightly: "Investigate carefully. I have a feeling that this person is not simple. If this Mr. Liao is working for the Fourth Prince, that's fine. But if he has other intentions, I'm afraid it will cause trouble."
At this point, the First Lady hissed and slapped her forehead: "Let me think, why don't we find an opportunity to kill him and get rid of him once and for all? This guy of unknown origin is most likely a menace."
"Forget it, if Fourth Brother finds out I killed his men, he'll probably blame me for not considering his feelings as his mother."
"Send your secret agents to thoroughly investigate Mr. Liao's past and background. Let's talk about it after we've found out everything."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Chengde lowered his head and obeyed.
……
At Jianmen Pass, Chai Ronggui had inspected eight delegations in a row, and they were all fake.
This did not frustrate the members of the Treasure Hunting Alliance; on the contrary, it made them even more excited.
Since eight of the nine missions have been confirmed as fake, the last one must be genuine.
It's already afternoon.
On the city wall, Dong, the leader of the Treasure-Hunting Alliance, was encouraging his men: "Brothers, cheer up! As soon as we see Zhou Qingfeng, we'll capture him alive and force him to hand over the key and the treasure map. Then we'll have succeeded!"
"Just think about it, the treasures of the ancient city of Xiyi, how much money and wealth must there be?"
"One hundred million? No, no, no, it's worth at least three billion in legal tender."
“Thirty billion yuan in legal tender, if we divide it equally among our families, that would be tens of millions of yuan.”
The 166 Devouring Fiend cultivators and 300 Devouring Calamity cultivators of the Treasure-Stealing Alliance were so excited that their eyes turned red, wishing Zhou Qingfeng would appear in front of them right now and devour him alive.
Upon seeing this, Alliance Leader Dong's morale soared. He nodded in satisfaction and looked at Chai Ronggui beside him: "General Chai, it's up to you. You must capture and kill Zhou Qingfeng as soon as possible. Don't let him escape."
"As long as the big thing is done, I'll decide to give you 100 million, and no one will have any objections."
Chai Ronggui, his mouth dry, suppressed his excitement and said, "Alliance Leader Dong, I will definitely do my best!"
I wonder if a mansion could hold 1 million yuan in legal tender.
I've never seen so much money in my life.
We haven't had a chance to fully enjoy the future yet.
A soldier ran up to report: "Reporting to the Alliance Leader, the ninth delegation is less than five miles away from here."
Leader Dong immediately stood up and said excitedly, "General Chai, go quickly."
Upon hearing this, Chai Ronggui nodded to Alliance Leader Dong, suppressed his excitement, and quickly ran down the stairs with his long-handled reverse-blade sword on his shoulder, soon arriving at the city gate entrance.
After a short wait, Chai Ronggui finally saw the ninth delegation slowly enter the pass.
Once the carriages and horses had completely entered the pass, the soldiers on duty immediately closed both city gates, intending to trap them like turtles in a jar.
"Stop the carriages and horses. This is a routine inspection by the general." Chai Ronggui, riding a tall horse, gestured for them to stop.
"Roar!" The person holding the carriage stopped the carriage, jumped off, and was about to ask a question.
But Chai Ronggui had no intention of following procedures and simply waved his hand: "Search!"
