Embroidered Uniform Guard: I Can Plunder Talents Chapter 380 - 102: The Zhao Family of Lingdan City! Troops G

"When are you ever going to fix that rash temper of yours?"

Back then, Lei Zheng was just a minor general under Yue Xiu.

Loyal, no doubt.

But sotis, when handling matters, he was scatterbrained and careless. Later, when they stopped fighting wars, Yue Xiu assigned Lei Zheng to the Embroidered Uniform Guard—not just because of its power.

Actually, more so,

he wanted to use the Embroidered Uniform Guard as a place to temper Lei Zheng properly.

It’s just that,

looking at the situation now, this so-called tempering really seems to have had no effect at all.

"I..."

Lei Zheng was left speechless for a mont.

Wait—I’ve been yapping at you all this ti, not only did I fail to make you realize the seriousness of the problem, you turn around and complain about being rash?

Is this really the ti for that?

"General, this really is an urgent matter! That Patriarch from Lingdan City’s Zhao family is honestly a Grandmaster Realm expert!"

"So what? It’s just an early stage Grandmaster, isn’t it? Ye Liuyun is a late-stage Grandmaster. You really think he can’t beat soone from the early stage?"

"Ye Liuyun is... he’s already late-stage Grandmaster Realm?"

Lei Zheng wanted to say more.

But when the realization hit him, his expression froze on the spot.

He blinked, looking blankly at Yue Xiu.

Well damn, he honestly didn’t know that Ye Liuyun had reached late-stage Grandmaster Realm.

Lei Zheng didn’t think his own general would lie to him about sothing like this, after all.

"What, you think this old man would ss with you over such a thing?"

Seeing Lei Zheng fall silent,

Yue Xiu couldn’t care less as he asked.

"Of course not!"

Lei Zheng didn’t hesitate to shake his head.

Naturally he didn’t believe his general would trick him.

"I just... just..."

He "just"-ed for half a day, but couldn’t say anything aningful.

In the end, with no other choice, he could only grit his teeth and say,

"That Ye Liuyun, that bastard, didn’t even tell he’s already late-stage Grandmaster! When he cos back, he has to buy a good drink or I won’t let this go!"

And then, instantly, he wasn’t worried anymore.

Now that he knew Ye Liuyun was late-stage Grandmaster, Lei Zheng felt much more at ease inside.

With that cultivation,

forget just dealing with a Lingdan City Zhao family,

even challenging all of Lingdan City’s alchemy clans one by one wouldn’t be a problem.

"..."

Seeing Lei Zheng like this,

Yue Xiu shook his head slightly.

He thought that after so many years in the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Lei Zheng might have matured, but judging from now, he hadn’t made a lick of progress.

"Alright, enough! If you’ve got nothing else, get your ass back to your Embroidered Uniform Guard and stop getting in this old man’s way!"

"Hehe!"

Being dismissed like this by Yue Xiu, Lei Zheng didn’t care at all. On the contrary, he grinned cheerfully.

"Then I won’t bother General any longer!"

Saying that, he left with a big stupid grin, and any worries inside vanished completely.

Yue Xiu just glanced at Lei Zheng’s retreating back, then stopped paying attention.

For all his grumbling, Yue Xiu actually favored Lei Zheng quite a bit—otherwise, out of all those deputy generals, he wouldn’t have picked Lei Zheng to be Governor in the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

So,

Yue Xiu was genuinely happy to see Lei Zheng getting along well with Ye Liuyun.

...

A hundred or so Embroidered Uniform Guards left the Imperial City at once.

Such a scene naturally drew the attention of many people.

The ones Ye Liuyun had raided before, the mont they got wind of this, imdiately locked up their mansions, called everyone ho, and hid all their old treasures.

Terrified Ye Liuyun might be coming to fleece them again.

Yan Fuhai may have been deep inside the palace, but with that old dog Wei Hongfang around...

Everything happening outside the Imperial City,

Yan Fuhai could grasp it all, crystal clear.

So of course, he also understood why Ye Liuyun was leading his troops out of the city.

But still,

"Just for one Embroidered Uniform Guard, he leads out so many n? Is Ye Liuyun really only doing this to protect his subordinate?"

Yan Fuhai found it hard to believe.

For soone like him, pure profit always ca first. If there was benefit involved, then losing a few subordinates was nothing.

Even if it’s a loyal dog like Wei Hongfang.

As long as the price was right, in Yan Fuhai’s eyes,

he’d give them up all the sa.

No matter what secrets the Lingdan City Zhao family was hiding, as long as they offered top-grade pills, losing one, ten, or even a hundred n—what of it?

So Yan Fuhai really couldn’t fathom why Ye Liuyun would act this way.

"Could it be Ye Liuyun has so other sche?"

At this thought,

Yan Fuhai’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Was he becoming suspicious, perhaps?

Could it be that Ye Liuyun’s actions to ’protect his n’ were just a cover, and he had other plans all along?

"Ugh!"

What’s with this feeling...

Ever since erging from seclusion, his master seed to have gotten a lot more paranoid.

Wasn’t like this before, right?

Although he found it odd, Wei Hongfang still explained seriously.

"According to this servant’s investigation, Ye Liuyun really is just trying to protect his n. And besides, even if Ye Liuyun planned anything, this servant has placed people all around the palace."

"If there’s so much as a whisper of trouble, nothing can escape this servant’s eyes!"

Even though his suspicion didn’t ease up much after Wei Hongfang’s words,

Yan Fuhai nodded in passing.

"In any case, keep tailing them!"

"Yes, master!"

Yan Fuhai didn’t dwell much on it.

After all, for Yan Fuhai right now, getting rid of his Destiny Retribution was still his top priority.
