"What is this mysterious route all about?"

Feng Yun frowned.

"So, you’re saying we capture people and sell them off, but don’t even know what the other side is doing?"

Feng Yun held back his anger, took a deep breath: "Don’t get mad, don’t get mad, can’t let this low-level sect upset me..."

"But damn it, is this how things should be handled!"

He slammed his hand on the table with a bang.

Feng Yun was already beside himself with rage, not even knowing what the others were up to, how could he make arrangements?

What if it backfired and got traced back to him? Or if they finished and had no trouble at all, what use was it other than to frame someone?

The most important thing wasn’t to destroy someone, it was to create the biggest trouble possible for Fang Che!

Feng Yun had an idea: to make this Life and Death Squad unable to get out from the get-go on their debut mission!

For Fang Che, your first task gets stuck in the mire, unfinished, how can you open up new battle lines?

Over time, Dongfang Sansan’s pilot squad would naturally be rendered useless: dragging on for a year or two, three to five years, and you’re still stuck in Donghu State, what good are you?

Even if given an important role in the future, how many would trust you? — This is the Fang Che who can’t even handle the Qinglong Gang properly for years?!

Right.

But now Feng Yun was even more conflicted than Fang Che.

Fang Che had goals, but Feng Yun had nowhere to apply his efforts!

And the cause of all this was internal family issues!

"Split in two directions, first, lead them to the brothel, second, lead them to this unknown organization."

"Then inform the family, bringing everyone from various industries to the Southeast in batches for hard labor! I’ll discipline them in one go! After so many years of comfort, they’ve become like pigs, if this continues, the Feng Family will undoubtedly face a disaster."

Feng Yun said: "Also, the people you chose in secret?"

"There are five, waiting outside."

"What is their cultivation?"

"One Elder level Eighth grade, four Elder level fifth or sixth rank."

"The cultivation is sufficient. Do they have public identities?"

"Yes."

"Call them in."

The five came in: "Greetings, Young Master Feng."

Feng Yun sized them up, nodded: "You five, contact Feng Yi via the Communication Jade. Then head to Donghu State, your mission is not to kill anyone or to cause disruption."

"Just observe the Qinglong Gang’s key personnel, hold some information, and escape immediately if needed. No need for killing or fighting."

"Can you manage that?"

"We swear to complete the mission!"

"Good! Go."

Feng Yun waved them off.

Until nearly dawn, the person from the Feng Family responsible for remote control of the Qinglong Gang finally arrived and got a severe scolding from Feng Yun. Only then did they send a message to the Qinglong Gang: "Try to lead them to the brothel and the other force... let the minions handle it."

Then the real punishment began. He handed it to Feng Yi and Feng Er: "Teach them well, just don’t kill them, do as you please!"

Amid pathetic pleas, they were taken away by Feng Er.

If it weren’t for his need for the Five Spirits Gu and Communication Jade to pass messages to the Qinglong Gang, Feng Yun would have surely turned this person to dust now!

But at least things were settled, and since he made it to the Southeast, future intel should flow more smoothly.

Feng Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

...

Over at Baixiang Continent, Mo Gan Yun Yu Zhong Ge and others had already patrolled the Guardian Hall, even cleaning up some underground gangs and despised rascals across Baixiang Continent.

They even dealt with two minor Shi Family clans under the Wei Wo Zheng Sect.

Here, relatively speaking, the cities were smaller, and there were fewer troubles.

Previously occupied bases by the Heavenly God Sect and Yemo Sect were long abandoned, and the people were nowhere to be found. Clues leading to the San Sheng Sect and Mingguang Sect were also entirely discarded.

It was practically a vacuum for the Wei Wo Zheng Sect.

The four thoroughly spruced up Baixiang Continent.

However, compared to other times, the killings were significant, even bloody and violent.

But compared to the upheaval in Donghu State, it was almost negligible.

After completing their mission here, the four, comparing notes from Donghu with Dongyun Yu and Feng Xiangdong’s constant reports, all wondered why they felt so disheartened?

So the four followed their original plan and went straight to Baiyun State.

Upon arriving at Baiyun State, my god! It was literally peace and harmony!

After a thorough investigation, they discovered: when Mr. Fang was here, he had completely swept through it.

"I told you we shouldn’t have come!"

Yu Zhongge looked frustrated: "Didn’t you consider, with Mr. Fang spending nearly a year in Baiyun State, what could be left? Couldn’t even find a damn rascal..."

The people in the Guardian Hall were quite enthusiastic.

But their enthusiasm wasn’t toward the inspection, rather...

"Is Mr. Fang your squad leader? That’s... great. How is Mr. Fang doing now?"

"Is Mr. Fang alright?"

"When will Mr. Fang return?"

"Why didn’t Mr. Fang come this time?"

"..."

The four responded to each one, feeling rather stifled.

Walking down the street, occasionally hearing that an inspection had arrived, some townsfolk actually ran over asking: "Isn’t Fang Che, Mr. Fang, part of the inspection? He didn’t come?"

"Please be kind to convey our message that we miss him dearly."

"Why didn’t Mr. Fang come personally, it’s truly... perplexing." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"Mr. Fang’s home is still here..."

"..."

Needless to say, the four discovered that in Baiyun State, Fang Che’s popularity far surpassed anyone else’s.
