Chapter 1709: Chapter 1704: Not a Coincidence
Is Yasui Corp finally unwilling to remain passive, and has sothing in mind?
They’ve managed to stay quite composed.
Not interfering with the interaction on the other side, Fu Qian even put down the book in his hand, listening intently.
Though it was just a few brief exchanges, one could easily glean a considerable amount of information from them.
Considering the previous conflicts between Yasui and the Siren, as well as the Ji Family’s behind-the-scenes machinations, it’s no wonder this top-tier company in distress is truly planning sothing big for a counterattack.
It’s not surprising. A group with a single authoritative leader may often avoid extre actions due to concerns about the consequences.
It’s often when headless and leaderless that reckless moves are more likely.
The Emperor Yasui, who has unquestionable control, has been missing for quite so ti, with even his fake being assassinated, so everyone is keenly observing Yasui’s reaction. It’s no surprise if extremists surface at this ti.
And the Greedy Worm mber opposite Tooth Throat Lay Buddhist, though not familiar, has a ranking slightly superior to hers.
Such a figure being highly sought after is, indeed, reasonable.
Moreover, from this, it’s possible to infer that the Greedy Worms’ hiding place is likely in this gentleman’s territory.
After all, such things are hard to believe from an unfamiliar Middle Tier, no matter how powerful.
Tooth Throat Lay Buddhist must have accidentally witnessed sothing, leading to this dispute under misunderstanding.
And this guy had made it very clear that he wasn’t after potions or Extraordinary Items, but simply wanted Yasui to help find soone.
And the “blessed one” he ntioned is indeed too obvious who it is—
Not long ago, he had once abducted Selana, the Half-god of the Blood Clan, and had her unknowingly participate in a scene of receiving a blessing, which was conveyed to the entire Greedy Worm team to help establish a grand goal.
This initiative is indeed quite reassuring; the Greedy Worms even quickly thought of leveraging others’ strength.
“Are you sure it will work? Never mind how much effort they’re willing to spend, how do you plan for them to search? For a potentially female demigod?”
Of course, the idea is one thing, but the effect seems hardly convincing, as Tooth Throat Lay Buddhist quickly raised doubts after montarily being stunned.
“If we mishandle the scale just a bit, our secrets might easily get exposed. Are you sure letting them know about the existence of Lord Abandonnt King is a good thing?”
It’s also evident that, after many incidents, her devotion to that supre being guiding them from the background had reached quite a high level.
The earlier call must have been triggered by the actions of a teammate, causing her to instantly think of the possibility of exposing her faith, thereby forming a call to the Abandonnt King in her mind.
Silently contemplating the cause and effect, Fu Qian was quite satisfied with such devotion, even reminiscing about his dealings with Brother Sanxun.
Should we follow suit and assign them a number as well?
With Tooth Throat Lay Buddhist’s faith, it will undoubtedly lead to a revolutionary change.
…
“Not sure, but what else?”
Unfortunately, not everyone was that pious. The gentleman opposite Tooth Throat Lay Buddhist obviously considered more about gain and loss.
“Do we just keep hitting luck aimlessly, or do we risk returning to Shangjing?”
“Have you thought about how long it will take until the storm completely passes?”
He was clearly disdainful of Tooth Throat Lay Buddhist’s over-conservatism.
“…The current instructions are very vague, I admit, but aren’t things evidently improving? Can’t you wait any longer?”
His words hit right at the weak spot, but Tooth Throat Lay Buddhist was evidently not one to easily deny herself, directly rebutting after a slight hesitance.
“We’ve waited through the years only able to develop one new mber each year, haven’t we?”
Oh? So indeed, it’s just one new recruit per year.
This singular lineage vow from Lord Death God is truly a little bizarre.
Fu Qian, also a listener, once again gleaned new information.
It sounds like the way this vow continues involves old mbers seeking new “good seedlings” each year, taking them to a certain place for a ritual, and being unable to select another role during this ti.
If they misjudge, the whole year is wasted.
From this perspective, developing to this scale wasn’t easy.
“It’s ‘us,’ not you.”
However, not everyone shared Fu Qian’s appreciation for Tooth Throat Lay Buddhist’s words. The person opposite was clearly not buying it, even giving a cold sneer.
“You’re the one who’s waited the shortest of everyone, trust , the feeling is entirely different.”
…
This remark seed undisputed.
It had been previously deduced that Tooth Throat Lay Buddhist should be the ntor for the deceased Daneta, who was already the ntor of North’s Jiangen.
Theoretically, she had been part of this team for possibly just two years.
Her being at a loss for words, given her reluctance to concede easily, demonstrates this to so extent.
“But in any case, you’re risking everyone, and I think it’s necessary to inform the others about this.”
Even so, a mont later, she gritted her teeth slightly and expressed her insistence.
“There’s no real need.”
However, this ti, another voice responded to her.
In Fu Qian’s perception, an additional figure erged, though equally blurry but sowhat familiar.
“Laurie… you’re supporting this guy’s reckless actions too?”
Facing the newcor, Tooth Throat Lay Buddhist was clearly taken aback.
Yes, the one who appeared was indeed soone akin to the spokesperson role for the Greedy Worm team, the longti host of the Shangjing underground auction, Mr. Laurie Sr.
“Recklessness is sotis not an absolute,” he said, “You ntioned dangers indeed exist, but the current situation might not allow us much patience.”
What shocked Tooth Throat Lay Buddhist was that the typically seasoned and cautious old man imdiately made his stance clear.
“Why? Even if those big organizations erupt into full-scale conflict, as long as the Night Watchman is around, we can completely stay out of it.”
Realizing the decisions were likely made under Laurie’s guidance, her voice beca sowhat dry.
“I quite agree, but the concern is that it might not just be this…”
In response, Laurie rely sighed.
“All the recent changes feel really off.”
“Yasui Tokiyuki seems not just to be in a simple problematic state. Not long ago, the strange astronomical events over the Night Holy City, the Night Watchman didn’t give any explanation, plus the one guiding us…”
“With all these things happening simultaneously, I feel it’s not purely coincidental.”
