Chapter 236: Chapter 139: Drawing the Blade Chapter 236: Chapter 139: Drawing the Blade “Yuan Bao, Zhou Mu is on the frontline in Southern Fujian, where the battlefield is inherently dangerous and unpredictable. We can’t allow him to be distracted over and over again. If sothing really were to happen to him, then we truly would have nowhere to bury ourselves!” Gu Changsheng shook her head. She had never been one to place her hopes on others, even if that person was Zhou Mu. She didn’t want to!
Dependence only proves one’s weakness!
Weakness only allows others to manipulate you!
And she, vowed not to be so!
“That won’t do either!” Yuan Bao’s determination was unprecedented, even if it ant defying Lady Changsheng, let it be, at most he would end up in a miserable state, but it’s still better than losing a life, right?
“Without entering the tiger’s lair, how can one obtain the tiger’s cubs? We are currently completely in the dark, wary of him, avoiding seeing him; could it be that from now on, because of his presence, the County Prince’s Mansion’s actions would be paralyzed?” Gu Changsheng was not in a hurry, she knew Yuan Bao’s worries and could only gently persuade, “If that’s the case, how is this Liuzhou Region different from being monopolized by the new City Lord?”
“I promised Zhou Mu that I would ensure peace behind him. The Liuzhou Region must be under our control. If the new City Lord is here only as I speculated, then we need not worry. If not, then he must die!” Gu Changsheng’s eyes flashed fiercely, “To be reborn from a desperate situation, this trip is a must!”
Yuan Bao’s face turned red with urgency, and, like a tiger pouncing for food, he rushed towards Gu Changsheng and fiercely grabbed onto her thigh, refusing to let go, “No! You cannot go! Anyone can be in danger, but you cannot be in danger. I’ll go! I’ll go!”
Gu Changsheng helplessly lifted a bitter smile, “The person they nad to et is !”
“Wu wu… that still won’t do! No way…”
The noise of Yuan Bao’s loud crying finally alard others.
Yue Xilou, with his martial training-induced flushed face, led Little at Bun hurriedly over, asked what had happened, and also shook his head.
Disapproving of her action.
However, Little Monk Bu Jie, who rarely left his house, put down the wooden fish and calculated this way and that, then with kindly eyes dropped a sentence, “This trip bears no danger.” and went back.
Everyone exchanged glances.
Gu Changsheng was the first to co to her senses, “See, even the little monk says this trip bears no danger, and the little monk is a senior monk.”
After speaking, Gu Changsheng was the first to lower her head in guilt. As for the little monk being a senior monk…she really didn’t know how ‘senior’ he was…
“Senior monk my ass, this is just dressing mutton as beef, and you believe it?” Whenever soone supported Lady Changsheng’s risky venture, Yuan Bao’s face clearly showed anger. He spat hatefully and finally concluded, “A charlatan posing as a divine being!”
But regardless, since Gu Changsheng had made up her mind, there was no possibility of change.
Overruling all objections, the City Lord’s Mansion, she must go!
Thus, Gu Changsheng summoned the Elite Guards and brothel won who had not yet been eliminated.
Her gaze intense, sweeping over the solemnly standing rows of people, Gu Changsheng’s voice was cold and harsh, “The real test for you has co!”
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.
A test that could change Lady Changsheng’s expression must truly be a real test!
The already solemn crowd instantly beca even tenser.
Gu Changsheng was pleased with their performance and continued loudly, “The new Lord of Liuzhou City has taken up his post, holding the Commander’s Seal of 300,000 troops of Jiangnan Road. The City Lord’s Mansion is heavily guarded, impregnable, and I, on the invitation of the new City Lord, will enter the City Lord’s Mansion in three days.”
“The new City Lord, a trusted subject of His Majesty, is a handso young man. Whether he is a friend or a foe, is unknown.”
As she spoke, everyone’s expressions grew solemn.
“Your test is, by all ans possible, infiltrate the City Lord’s Mansion and its surroundings, pry open a gap in that impregnable defense and protect completely. If the new City Lord turns out to be a foe rather than a friend, shoot him on the spot!”
The seriousness on everyone’s faces was now so intense it seed they could drip water. This was not just a test! This was a real battlefield! A silent battlefield!
And she, was about to venture alone into a perilous situation!
“Are you up to the task within three days?” Furrowing her brows and scanning the people before her, Gu Changsheng’s presence was majestic, like the arrival of a War God.
“We swear to protect you completely with our lives!” Uniform voices, accompanied by the sound of kneeling on one knee, echoed through the depths of Baili Mountain, soaring to the skies.
Gu Changsheng slowly raised her head, gazing at the vast blue sky.
“You are the ones I personally trained. Although you have yet to graduate, with your skills and vigilance, I believe you won’t disappoint !” Her troops, nearly a month of training, she believed in them!
With the heart wielding a blade drawn from its sheath, let the new Lord of Liuzhou City co and be that whetstone!
