Feeling the sobbing ng Po in his arms, Yang Chen couldn't help but think of a few years ago when ng Po returned from her first mission.
At that ti, ng Po had lost all her previous pride, covered in blood and dirt, she rushed towards Yang Chen and broke down in tears.
It was then that ng Po released all the grievances and pain she had accumulated over the years in one go.
Now, ng Po looks similar to how she did back then.
Yang Chen gently patted ng Po's head and sighed, "This is exactly my promise to you all. The Asura Hall is the Asura Hall, it's a place for battle, work, and for you to learn and train, but it's definitely not a ho."
"The word 'ho' holds a profound aning, not only for the people of the Fla Country but for people of other countries and races as well. A ho is a place where you can relax, set aside all worries, drop all defenses, and put down tireso work to rest. A ho makes you feel warmth, there is your loved one, but the Asura Hall is not; it's a place for battle, where you can trust them with your back but certainly can't snuggle on the sofa with them watching TV."
"Therefore, my promise to you has never been about making the Asura Hall so powerful, but about giving you a stable ho, that is what I have always pursued."
ng Po nodded slightly, understanding Yang Chen's sentints.
"Rest assured!" Yang Chen patted ng Po's head and said, "This promise won't take too long. I will fulfill it as soon as possible and give you a stable ho!"
"Mhm!" ng Po nodded slightly.
"Rest now!" Yang Chen placed the slightly drowsy ng Po on the bed and quietly left the room.
Upon leaving the room, Yang Chen saw Left Envoy Yang.
Yang Chen signaled for silence to Left Envoy Yang, then led her to the study, "She's asleep, too much pressure."
"Who is she?" Left Envoy Yang asked.
Seeing the confusion in Left Envoy Yang's eyes, Yang Chen understood that her question was not just about ng Po's identity.
Yang Chen gave a wry smile and recounted ng Po's background to Left Envoy Yang.
"You an you are a massive international organization that intimidates so countries?" Left Envoy Yang frowned and asked.
Yang Chen nodded slightly, "You could say that."
Left Envoy Yang fell into thought.
After a long while, Left Envoy Yang raised her head and said, "That ans you have the ability to completely control Ancheng?"
Yang Chen smiled wryly at this and said, "It's not that simple. Firstly, my team does have strong combat capabilities, but their martial cultivation isn't very high. They certainly can't handle the elders of so families or so hidden masters. Of course, if we used hot weapons, giving each of my people a gun, there would be no one in Ancheng who could beat them. But the problem is, we can't use that kind of force; everything has to be done slowly."
Left Envoy Yang widened her eyes, "You really do plan to unify Ancheng!"
"Uh!" Yang Chen hadn't expected Left Envoy Yang to tease out his thoughts.
Helpless, Yang Chen could only say, "Yes, I do have that plan because my strategy requires the industries of Ancheng as a support. Furthermore, the Fla Country would not allow a lawless place like Ancheng to exist for long; it is only a matter of ti before Ancheng is completely brought under control. I'm just taking action early."
Left Envoy Yang furrowed her brows in thought, not responding to Yang Chen's explanation.
Yang Chen shrugged and said, "Don't worry, if you don't want it, I won't take action against your Nine Venerables Group."
Left Envoy Yang shook her head slightly, continuing to think.
Yang Chen felt a bit helpless, knowing what Left Envoy Yang was really thinking.
After a long ti, Left Envoy Yang looked up at Yang Chen and said, "It would be best if you don't act too conspicuously. If the Nine Venerables really unite, they are a very formidable force. As you just ntioned, your Asura Hall, if ard, would be invincible. But have you thought about the foundation of these families? If it really ca to a fight, can the grandmasters of the Nine Venerables, united, be countered by Asura Hall with weapons? What about those in the Divine Realm?"
Yang Chen quickly furrowed his brows and stared at Left Envoy Yang, "Are you saying there are hidden Divine Realm masters among the nine families?"
Left Envoy Yang shook her head slightly, not giving Yang Chen an answer.
Even so, Yang Chen understood that the foundations of the nine families were extraordinary, and if they truly united, his subordinates would certainly not be able to contend with the Nine Venerables.
However, Yang Chen would not allow them to unite, nor foolishly attempt to eliminate them all in one fell swoop.
The current discord among the nine families is, for Yang Chen, a golden opportunity.
"I have my ways," Yang Chen said to Left Envoy Yang.
"If you need my help, just let know," Left Envoy Yang said softly.
Yang Chen's lips imdiately curled into a smile, looking at Left Envoy Yang, "What? Don't believe in your husband's ability?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Left Envoy Yang glared at Yang Chen, "Even though I can't rember so things, I still have feelings for my parents, but you saying we're married, huh! I just don't believe it!"
"Don't believe it?" Yang Chen found it amusing, why then is your face red if you don't believe? Why won't you look at ?
Yang Chen didn't bring it up, after all, it's good to give soone so face, especially since she's a Nine Venerable Left Envoy, a little bit of pride is normal.
The two were at a loss for words, making the atmosphere sowhat awkward.
After a while, Left Envoy Yang asked softly, "When... are you leaving?"
"Tomorrow afternoon, I guess." Yang Chen thought for a mont and said.
"The Xiang family is sending quite a number of people this ti, including an elder-level figure," Left Envoy Yang said.
Yang Chen looked at Left Envoy Yang in surprise, not expecting her to be so attuned to Xiang family's actions, "An elder? Which elder?"
"Xiang Xingshan, a master of moving mountains, known to open stone coffins with his bare hands. It's said he once smashed a zombie with one punch, but the specifics are unclear. His cultivation is profound; it's best to be cautious."
Yang Chen nodded slightly, it seed that the Xiang family and the Zhang family had reached so sort of secret agreent, as both families placed great importance on this action.
"You should be heading to the area around Mount Hengjiang, right?" Left Envoy Yang looked at Yang Chen and said.
Yang Chen was startled, looking at Left Envoy Yang in surprise, not expecting her to have even found that out.
Seeing Yang Chen's surprised expression, Left Envoy Yang smiled slightly, proudly, "As a Nine Venerable Left Envoy, do you think there's anything in Ancheng that can escape my ears? Besides, the Xiang family hasn't kept their operations for this project very secret, many people know their movents are in the Mount Hengjiang area, it's just that others aren't as fervent about this matter as the Xiang family is. However, what puzzles is why the Xiang family isn't keeping such a large-scale operation a secret. What are they aiming for?"
Yang Chen also frowned slightly, feeling that there's definitely sothing fishy here.
After all, this operation is extrely important for both the Xiang and Zhang families, and Yang Chen didn't believe the Xiang family would allow any accidents to occur in this operation.
