To be honest, facing the rebel army's higher-ups, Fang Yu felt the pressure.
There are always people better than you, and there are skies beyond the sky. His middle stage Wood Realm strength was far from enough in front of these guys.
"Where's the Commander?"
Qiu Xiaoping looked left and right, then asked.
"My father had to leave due to an urgent matter and asked to host this eting."
Xu Qingqi left her seat and approached Fang Yu, scrutinizing him closely.
Qiu Xiaoping frowned and looked at the other two.
The elderly Taoist and the bearded man both showed a hint of helplessness and nodded towards her, indicating that Xu Qingqi's words were true.
"Such an important matter is entrusted to her..."
Qiu Xiaoping secretly fretted.
Although both the Commander and Deputy Commander were getting old, Xu Qingqi would inevitably be the future of the rebel army.
But starting the transition now felt a bit too soon...
"Brother Diao, my dad said your strength is unquestionable. From now on, you'll be our rebel army's fifth departnt minister, that is, the Black Departnt Chief."
"Even though you don't have many people under you right now, we will prioritize assigning talented individuals to your departnt in the future. Additionally, two capable assistants and so idle personnel will be directly assigned to you so you won't be without soldiers."
"And... what else was there..."
Xu Qingqi struggled to recall, seeming to have forgotten sothing important.
Seeing how unreliable she was, Fang Yu glanced at Qiu Xiaoping beside him, only to find her with a similarly helpless expression.
"Oh oh oh! I rembered, we've prepared almost everything you requested."
With these words, Fang Yu imdiately felt energized.
The Talisman of Malevolence Dispelling was already in Fang Yu's possession; what remained were the supplies Ding Hui requested, and... the demon situation in the city, along with related intelligence on Jiuyao.
"Where to start... Let's start with the simple ones."
Xu Qingqi sat down beside Fang Yu, a faint fragrance wafting over, making Fang Yu glance at her several more tis.
In terms of looks, she was even more beautiful than Qiu Xiaoping, but her actions were bold, without any feminine deanor, and her every move carried a brotherly spirit...
"The supplies you wanted are nurous, and they're quite rare. Although our rebel army doesn't need much of them right now, we've kept a significant inventory as strategic reserves for ergencies. But my dad said, trading these for a new minister is a worthwhile deal. So, Brother Diao, don't let us down."
These words were sowhat pressuring...
Fang Yu believed the Rebel Army Commander's original words were definitely not like this. Probably sothing more comforting.
But looking at Xu Qingqi's carefree deanor, she didn't seem like soone who could rember the original words.
He nodded awkwardly.
"I definitely won't let everyone down!"
Whether it was the elderly Taoist or the bearded man, both were now holding their foreheads, clearly finding Xu Qingqi's straightforwardness hard to watch.
"Alright, as long as you say that! No need to worry! On the battlefield, I'll cover you! Just call 'Big Sister'! When our rebel army's five tigers join forces, what Foolish Underworld, what Ten Major Families, they'll all be trampled underfoot sooner or later hahaha!"
Big, Big Sister?
Fang Yu looked at Xu Qingqi with a strange expression, saying nothing.
"Okay, for the supplies, just find that bull-nosed Taoist for them. Their departnt is responsible for the final inventory."
Xu Qingqi pointed at You Shouliang, as if the matter was settled.
The elderly Taoist You Shouliang awkwardly smiled and nodded at Fang Yu.
It was Qiu Xiaoping who ca out to diate, saying, "No need to trouble Young Master Diao, once we've finished counting, I'll personally send people to deliver the goods to Young Master Diao's residence, ensuring no errors and saving Young Master Diao the hassle."
Look! That's what you call after-sales service!
Besides, taking a carriage full of supplies back would be quite conspicuous; it's better for the rebel army to handle the arrangents.
"Thank you, Lord Qiu, thank you, Lord You."
Fang Yu expressed his gratitude, and both smiled in response.
Everybody was happy, except Xu Qingqi who seed a bit displeased.
After all, she was the one hosting the matter, so why not thank her!
"Cough!"
Xu Qingqi coughed, then said, "Regarding the supplies, that's settled. As for the distribution of demons within the city, our rebel army knows a bit. But my father said many matters can't be taken lightly. I can give you the intelligence, but you can't act on certain demons."
Fang Yu's eyes imdiately lit up.
Demons an attribute points.
Attribute points an strength.
To him, this demon intelligence is much more important than the supplies.
After all, those dicinal materials are what Ding Hui needs; demon intelligence is what he truly needs.
The bearded man Nian Jiachen stood up at this ti.
"Qingqi, let explain this part to Young Master Diao."
Nian Jiachen looked at Fang Yu.
"Before I talk about the demon intelligence within Young Master Diao's city, I want to ask Young Master Diao a question. Why do you want this demon intelligence? To vanquish demons or for self-preservation, or are you investigating sothing?"
Fang Yu frowned slightly at these words.
He suddenly had a fondness for Xu Qingqi's carefree style.
Even though matters were handled haphazardly, at least she wouldn't ask so detailed questions, which made him uncomfortable.
"It's naturally for self-preservation, but if I can contribute to the Thunder City citizens by slaying demons and ensuring they live peacefully, that would be even better."
