166 Emotions; The Nature! (1/2)

Wan Zhenghao widely opened his eyes and said, ”You... Monarch, are you actually able to do such a thing?”

Ye Xiao humphed and said, ”First of all, we need our own intelligence network. All the branches of the Ling-Bao Hall should be a unified intelligence network. Second, we need to spend a lot of money to build our own assassination department. We need to show up with initial success as soon as possible. Third, spend whatever it takes to do charity. Don't be chary. The money we are going to make will be far beyond what you can imagine. Last and the most important one is that we need to arrange our execution department.”

”We should show no mercy to the villains. I won't stand soft.” Ye Xiao raised his head and looked at the night sky through the window. He spoke blandly, ”Since I have to stay here in this world for a period of time, I guess I should do something that should be done.”

Wan Zhenghao nodded, ”Yes. I will be right on it.”

”I don't care how you do it. I just want you to do it secretly. Ling-Bao Hall will still be the old Ling-Bao Hall, just a place for auctions.” Ye Xiao spoke gently, ”You are an experienced man. I believe you know what to do, right?”

”I do. There is no need to worry.” Wan Zhenghao replied.

”Besides, we don't need many people in our assassination department, because all the cultivators in the world can be our assassins.” Ye Xiao said blandly, ”Post some rewards.”

”Let's call it the reward board...” Ye Xiao thought for a while, ”We call it... the Life and Death Board.”

”Life and Death Board.” Wan Zhenghao murmured and his eyes slowly lit up. He said, ”I got it. I understand.”

”What we do here with the board is to fight against the House Of Chaotic Storms.” Ye Xiao spoke blandly.

”Remember though, if anybody posts a reward on our board and turns out that it they want to take innocent people's lives, the one who posts it and the one who takes the reward should be put on our board and be hunted by other assassins.”

Wan Zhenghao's face twitched.

[Isn't it a bit too difficult to be against the House of Chaotic Storms?]

”Everything should be undercover.” Ye Xiao said, ”And I just want to know the outcomes. I don't want to know any bit of how things are done.”

Wan Zhenghao's face turned dark; he seemed to be upset.

He was now working for a man who only saw the outcomes and left everything else to him. The good side with it was that he didn't lose any of his power in the Ling-Bao Hall. However... he would need to be concerned with more and more businesses.

”After the auction... Your Slimming Dan Beads should be ready.” Ye Xiao smiled. Apparently, he had just thrown a bait.

Wan Zhenghao was thrilled, ”Oh!”

As nothing was better than this for him, how could he not be happy about it.

However, he was shaking with over 500 kg fat on his body. Ye Xiao saw it and felt truly disgusted, so he had to leave right away...

Wan Zhenghao made the Xiao Monarch retreat by only shaking his body. He should have in an important position in the history.

...

It was in the House of Ye.

Song Jue had left the bed and went around the house for a while, yet he returned to the bed and said worriedly, ”Xiao-Xiao, do you think maybe we have gone too far on this? The king has come and all the officials have come. I feel that something wrong has happened along the line...”

Song Jue looked at all the presents that were piled up in the room and spoke with concerns, ”I think the kingdom is going to collapse soon...”

Ye Xiao rolled his eyes and said, ”There are emergencies, while there are also ordinary issues. Meanwhile, there are things we have to do. What we have to do now is to protect ourselves. We have to stay safe and then we can figure out something to take those bastards lives. If we didn't make such a big issue this time, how could the king be so cruel to his good officials... The last thing we should worry about is the question you are asking. I know the kingdom is going to fall, but it hasn't yet, has it?”

Song Jue sighed. He was a bit upset.

”I followed my big brother here, the Land of Han-Yang... I have been through those days with swords, spears, horses, battlefields...” Song Jue looked out through the window sadly. He was a bit sentimental.

He was not a native in this world, yet he had been in the army for some time. He had been protecting this kingdom for quite some days. He had emotions for this country, and he had the sense of responsibility as a soldier.

Now he was here looking at the kingdom, where he had put a lot of contributions, falling slowly. How couldn't he be upset about it.

Ye Xiao was a bit worried when he saw Song Jue like that.

Although he was a well-experienced man, he hadn't lived in this world for long. That feeling for the country was something he lacked.

So he never cared about anything of this kingdom really.

However, looking at Song Jue, he felt that maybe he had done something wrong this time. Maybe he had been reckless on something.

[Home country.

What is home country?

Home country... Home country...]

The two words kept showing up in his heart. He seemed to feel something, but actually not.

Song Jue was lost in the sad feeling. Ye Xiao looked at him and thought of the day when the Army of Hua-yang departed; although those soldiers knew they might die far away from home, they were still brave and excited.

Ye Xiao thought of something.

[Protection.

Guarding.

Responsibility.]

Suddenly, his dantian seemed motivated.

And then a mass of purple qi suddenly expanded in it.

It was like there was a door opening inside him. He felt relaxed and enlightened at the same time.
