After Fu Zhu left those words for Feixiao, he walked forward alone. Feixiao stayed where she was, carefully savoring Fu Zhu's words.
"Knowing I am General rlin's Claw, yet still able to speak with such confidence... You clearly have total confidence in your own ans. Now I believe the report submitted by the Luofu a bit more."
Feixiao smiled freely, then lifted her foot to follow in the direction Fu Zhu left. Before understanding Fu Zhu's full strength, she wouldn't give up.
On the other side, Xing had been arguing with Scott with guns of lips and swords of tongues for a good while. Now was the halfti intermission; both of them were panting and glaring at each other.
Scott gasped for breath, holding his waist, his eyes wide and round, saying through gritted teeth: "Worthy of being that man's sister, your lips are truly sharp!"
Xing crossed her arms with a smug look, puffing out her chest and raising her head: "Even my brother can't out-talk sotis, let alone you!"
"What? Even that man can't out-talk you... Damn it, I underestimated you."
March 7th looked between the two with so speechlessness, rolling her eyes a few tis, and suddenly roasted: "If your brother heard these words, he would definitely drag you to 'argue' with you for a whole day to prove he is stronger than you."
Sotis Fu Zhu and Xing were just two kids! Arguing for a long ti over so trivial chicken-feather-and-garlic-peel matters.
Xing pouted, hugging her arms and humming: "How is that possible! My Old Bro..."
Before Xing could finish her sentence, out of the corner of her eye, she glimpsed Fu Zhu standing beside her at so unknown ti, pricking up his ears and listening to her speak with a faint smile.
"What about ?"
Xing withdrew her gaze from Fu Zhu without her expression changing, then looked at Scott: "Hah! Scott, now my Old Bro is here. Why don't you hurry up and obediently cooperate with our inspection!"
Fu Zhu shook his head speechlessly. March 7th aside was also between laughter and tears as she roasted: "Why are you like a kid who found a carry to cling to!"
When Scott saw Fu Zhu appear, the expression on his face changed again and again. Finally, he stomped his foot with a face full of indignation: "Fu Zhu! Do you have a grudge against ? Why do I run into you everywhere I go!"
"Mr. Scott, you are wrong about that." Fu Zhu saw that it was originally Scott arguing with Xing, and instantly laughed cheerfully: "What grudge do we have? We only have a debt relationship. You still owe a large sum of money."
The expression on Scott's face shifted repeatedly. He wanted to open his mouth to say sothing several tis but held it back. Finally, he could only wave his hand with a face full of grievance, signaling his subordinate employees to make way.
"Make way, let them inspect the goods!"
"But Special Commissioner Scott..." The employee didn't understand and wanted to say sothing more, but was glared at by Scott.
"You think I want to! If he takes the matter of owing a debt like an astronomical figure to tell the Company, then my future promotion hopes are completely gone!"
After saying this, Scott seed to lose all his strength, muttering with his head drooping dejectedly: "At worst, I'll go kowtow and apologize to those old masters at the Intelligentsia Guild again later. At least kowtowing is free."
With Scott's order, the group of company employees finally stepped aside, revealing several huge shipping containers to the crowd's eyes.
However, before the people from the Artifex Commission could step forward to open the container doors, suddenly, the iron doors of the containers were kicked flying with a bang. The huge iron doors flew toward the crowd like several guillotines.
The expressions of everyone present couldn't help but change. But because the incident happened so suddenly, and they were ordinary people, they simply couldn't make dodging movents in ti. Only Xing, March 7th, and Fu Zhu had ti to react.
Fu Zhu imdiately pushed Xing and March 7th beside him to a safe place, then instantly switched to [Observer Mode].
The rapidly flowing ti gradually slowed to a halt at this mont. Just as Fu Zhu planned to intercept those few iron plates that had turned into guillotines, he discovered that Feixiao, whom he had t before, was standing on the inevitable path of those iron plates at so unknown ti, and had even extended her hand in a posture to block them.
Seeing this scene, Fu Zhu couldn't help but be slightly surprised. Worthy of being one of the Seven Arbiter-Generals; her speed was actually this fast.
However, since she was helping to block those flying iron plates, Fu Zhu simply flew into the container.
This matter was too coincidental. The Company employees had just moved aside, and the container that hadn't had any accidents before suddenly had an accident. If it wasn't planned by soone, Fu Zhu wouldn't believe it.
...
Ti resud flowing again. Feixiao casually raised her hand and caught all the flying iron plates single-handedly, then casually placed them on the ground to the side. The corners of her mouth raised in a slight smile, and she turned her head intending to 'show off' to Fu Zhu a bit. But as soon as she turned her head, she realized that Fu Zhu, who was clearly beside Xing and March 7th just a mont ago, had suddenly disappeared.
"Hmm? Did you guys see Fu Zhu?"
Xing and March 7th had also just co back to their senses from the accident. Finding Fu Zhu not by their side, they shook their heads repeatedly.
Their answer made Feixiao frown involuntarily. Before she made her move, she had clearly seen Fu Zhu beside Xing and March 7th. In the blink of an eye, where could he have gone?
Xing and March 7th secretly peeked at the pondering Feixiao. The two leaned their small heads together, muttering in whispers.
"Xing, do you know her?"
"Don't know her. I still wanted to ask if you knew her! Why is it another big beauty who knows my brother? March, could it be that the relationship between you two has cracked?"
March 7th raised her hand sowhat angrily and knocked lightly on Xing's head.
"What are you saying! Your brother doesn't care, so I'll care. In the future, I'm going to monitor you fiercely and won't let you read those strange novels anymore!"
"Don't! Sister-in-law~"
Xing panicked upon hearing this and hurriedly hugged March 7th's arm to start acting spoiled. March 7th, however, humd and turned her head away, ignoring her.
Dan Heng leaned over abruptly at this mont, holding Cloud-Piercer in his hand. He had planned to make a move to block those iron plates just now, but he didn't expect soone to be faster than him.
"This is General rlin's Claw of the Xianzhou Yaoqing, Feixiao."
Hearing this, March 7th and Xing, who were still playing around, imdiately stopped. Both looked at Dan Heng standing behind them with puzzled faces.
"Why would the General of the Xianzhou Yaoqing know Fu Zhu?"
"And looking at this posture, she ca personally to find my Old Bro. Could it be my Old Bro committed a cri?"
Dan Heng shook his head, signaling the two girls to calm down a bit: "Fu Zhu definitely didn't commit a cri, but it is indeed a bit strange for the General of the Xianzhou Yaoqing to co to the door... Moreover, for this Wardance Ceremony, Generals from two Xianzhou ships have actually gathered on the Luofu... I'm afraid they ca because of the matter of the Ambrosial Arbor. Thinking of it this way, General rlin's Claw seeking out Fu Zhu can be explained."
"Ambrosial Arbor..." Xing and March 7th scratched their heads. After thinking for a good while, they rembered. Wasn't that the na of that big tree Fu Zhu chopped down?
Xing imdiately took out her phone and sent a voice ssage to Hiko, speaking to the phone with a face full of sorrow: "Hiko, our family is going bankrupt! Old Bro chopped down soone's thousand-year-old tree, woo woo."
March 7th raised her hand in a huff and hamred Xing's noggin again: "Since when are you still acting up!"
Xing laughed slyly and stuck out her tongue at March 7th, then turned her head to look at Dan Heng: "Although that is so... where is my brother?"
Dan Heng also shook his head. Fu Zhu's strength had far surpassed his. Just a mont ago, he only saw Fu Zhu's movent of pushing away March 7th and Xing, and imdiately after, the person vanished. What he saw wasn't much more than Feixiao.
Just as everyone was subconsciously looking for Fu Zhu's figure, Fu Zhu walked out of the container dragging several huge beast-shaped chs. He casually threw them in front of Scott, dusted off his hands coldly.
"Scott, explain. Why are there beast-shaped chs made using Borisin nervous systems in the Company's cargo? And why did they make a move exactly when the Xianzhou was inspecting the containers? Don't tell this is a coincidence."
"What? Beast-shaped chs made using Borisin?" xN
As soon as Fu Zhu said this, the people on the scene couldn't help but feel astonished. Dan Heng and Feixiao frowned deeply. Just as Fu Zhu said, this was too coincidental.
Scott's face went pale. He naturally knew the relationship between the Borisin and the Xianzhou. Initially, he wanted to doubt Fu Zhu's words, but considering that Fu Zhu had no need to lie to him, he started trembling in fear.
"I... I really didn't know about this! I just transported the goods according to orders from above. It was originally a drudgery; who knew I would run into this kind of thing!"
Fu Zhu stared at Scott's face, confird that he didn't seem to be faking it, and withdrew his gaze, looking towards Yanqing at the side.
"Yanqing, have soone collect these beast-shaped chs. No need to worry about them causing trouble; their activation authority is now in my hands. As for Scott and his group... although I feel this matter shouldn't have much to do with him, let's follow your Luofu's procedures."
When he rushed in just now, Fu Zhu imdiately used [Redstone Circuits] to seize control of these chs. Now, on the entire Xianzhou, only he alone could activate these chs.
"Yes, Master."
Yanqing imdiately called people over. After reloading these chs back into the containers, he had people take them away along with Scott and the other employees.
After they were taken away from the scene, only then did Feixiao cross her arms, looking at Fu Zhu with a faint smile and saying: "I didn't expect you to choose to go directly into the container to investigate. Weren't you worried your companions couldn't block the attack just now?"
Regarding her question, Fu Zhu replied with a smile: "Since I saw General rlin's Claw making a move, what did I still need to worry about? Surely the famous General rlin's Claw wouldn't fail to catch a few pieces of iron plate, right?"
Feixiao smiled and didn't say anything more.
And Yanqing and the others reacted with hindsight at this mont, imdiately bowing in unison to Feixiao.
"Luofu Cloud Knight, Yanqing, has seen General rlin's Claw."
"Luofu Alchemy Commission's new Cauldron Master, Lingsha, has seen General rlin's Claw."
...
Hearing everyone's greetings, Fu Zhu noticed at this mont that besides Feixiao, there was another stranger on the scene.
Fu Zhu glanced at Lingsha and found that the other party was also staring intently at him. Clearly, there was Feixiao with a higher apparent status on the scene, yet she kept staring at him. It was a bit strange.
Feixiao seed to suddenly rember sothing, turned her head to the crowd, smiled, and waved her hand.
"Alright, since the matter here is over, I still have so business, so I'll take my leave first. Fu Zhu, see you next ti."
Once Feixiao left, the atmosphere on the scene instantly eased up a lot. March 7th patted her chest with lingering fear and said: "Knowing she is General rlin's Claw, I was so scared I didn't dare to breathe loud!"
Xing, however, puffed out her chest proudly: "I was different! Not only did I dare to breathe loud, I even dared to yawn!"
"Just you are capable!"
At this mont, Lingsha, who had been staring at Fu Zhu, suddenly walked up to him, placed her hands in front of her body, and bowed respectfully to Fu Zhu.
"Lingsha has seen Mr. Fu Zhu."
Fu Zhu nodded and asked with so curiosity: "Is sothing the matter?"
Lingsha looked at the Astral Express crew and Yanqing with a slight smile: "It is like this. This concubine has just arrived on the Luofu and will assu the position of Cauldron Master of the Alchemy Commission later. However, it has been a long ti since I returned to the Luofu and I do not know the specific situation of the Alchemy Commission. Could I invite everyone to the Alchemy Commission for a cup of tea?"
Xing listened to the dialogue between Lingsha and Fu Zhu, quietly leaned close to March 7th, and said with a face full of implication: "The cor is not kind!"
March 7th was just planning to roast Xing grumpily, but who knew Dan Heng also leaned over and repeated it.
"Indeed, the cor is not kind."
"Dan Heng, you too?!"
Fu Zhu thought slightly, nodded, and agreed.
Although the current Luofu didn't have any major crises on the surface, it wasn't peaceful at all. Everyone seed to have their eyes on him and Jing Yuan.
"Alright."
"Many thanks to Mr. Fu Zhu for showing face. Everyone, please follow this concubine."
...
Fu Zhu and the others followed Lingsha to the Alchemy Commission. Just as they sat down under her greeting, before the chairs were even warm, a burst of noise suddenly rang out from outside the Alchemy Commission.
This made Lingsha, who was planning to ask Fu Zhu and the others so things, frown unhappily. She turned her head to look at a group of people barging into the main hall noisily. So of them had dragon horns visible on their heads; one could recognize at a glance that they were Vidyadhara.
Seeing these compatriots of hers barge in, Lingsha sighed helplessly, then said apologetically to Fu Zhu and the others: "Apologies, everyone. These people are my compatriots. I'm afraid they are here to seek out. I will ask them to leave imdiately."
Fu Zhu and the others nodded and didn't say anything, just sitting quietly to the side planning to watch the show.
Lingsha stood up and walked towards the group of Vidyadhara who ignored the Alchemy Commission alchemists' obstruction. She said angrily: "This place is currently entertaining guests. I do not wish to discuss other matters with you. Please return."
But who knew that as soon as Lingsha said this, those Vidyadhara people looked at her with strange expressions.
The Dragon Master at the head rely cupped his hands casually at Lingsha.
"Seen the Cauldron Master."
Then, they put back on fawning smiles, bypassed the obstruction of those alchemists, rushed to Fu Zhu, and bowed in unison.
"Lord Fu Zhu! Welco back to the Luofu!"
Lingsha: ?
