Chapter 771: 186. Miaomiao: Devil Sect is an empty shell? (9000 words asking for monthly tickets)_5
Although he had not completed the task his “master” had given him, he was truly enjoying himself!
Every day was filled with lavish meals, drinking, playing, and night after night of music and festivity; he truly indulged in pleasures he had never experienced in the first half of his life.
Thus, during these indulgent days at home, Jiang Cheng gradually realized a truth: effort might not guarantee success, but slacking was genuinely comfortable.
You see, although Jiang Cheng always looked down on commoners, believing that nobles were superior, honestly, he was not a wastrel; on the contrary, he was quite ambitious.
It was only because he believed nobles were above ordinary people that his character was so overbearing. Therefore, he had never really experienced the romantic and carefree life of the nobility.
As a result… now he had experienced the joy his father had. It was something he had never imagined before. Therefore, he was momentarily reluctant to think of home.
This also led to the Jiang family’s butler and his subordinates in Emerald City urging him many times to return, but he did not return to work in Emerald City.
Today, Jiang Cheng was leisurely semi-reclining in a chair, enjoying the dance and music, eating fruits, continuing to relish the lavish life of the nobility.
As the dance ended, Jiang Cheng stood up with a smile and then walked toward the dancers.
The dancers, one after another, had beautiful faces and charming expressions, their slender bodies moving as gracefully as willow branches swaying in the breeze, their eyes filled with tender emotions.
Jiang Cheng’s eyes darted from one to another, experiencing the blissful confusion of a myriad of flowers vying to captivate him.
This game, which he had played many times over these two days, caused the dancers to shyly lower their heads and quietly wait for Jiang Cheng to make his choice as they saw him approaching.
Jiang Cheng looked over each of them again and finally fixed his gaze on three dancers with the most enchanting figures. He smiled and was about to choose these three to spend the night with him when suddenly, just as his hands were about to touch the face of one of the dancers, he paused abruptly.
Because a “ding dong” sound rang in his ear, and suddenly, an envelope icon appeared in front of him.
Hearing that sound and seeing that envelope, Jiang Cheng was taken aback, then belatedly remembered: Was this his master contacting him?
Thinking this, his expression changed, and he lowered his hand, waving to the dancers, “You all go down first.”
These dancers, who had evidently not encountered such a situation in the past few days, were stunned for a moment. They looked at each other, unsure whether Jiang Cheng was playing a new game or if they should listen to him.
Just as they hesitated for that second, Jiang Cheng’s temper flared up, “Down! Didn’t you hear what I said? Get out, all of you!”
Seeing that Jiang Cheng was truly angry, the dancers present were terrified, shivering, and quickly bowed and retreated.
After the dancers left the living room, Jiang Cheng looked around, saw that indeed no one else was present, rubbed his hands, swallowed, and then opened the message Fang Ze had sent him.
“Return to Emerald City, mobilize the Security Bureau and the Defense Team, and exterminate the Rejuvenation Society.”
A simple sentence, but it made Jiang Cheng pause abruptly.
‘Return to Emerald City? Exterminate the Rejuvenation Society?’
Jiang Cheng involuntarily hesitated,
‘Returning to Emerald City I can do at any time, but to exterminate the Rejuvenation Society… I don’t even know where they are, how could I exterminate them?’
Jiang Cheng hesitated for a moment, then thought… his master surely wouldn’t leave such a big loophole; probably everything was already arranged in Emerald City. Probably he would know what to do once he returned to Emerald City…
Thinking this, he decided: He would return to Emerald City and fulfill the task given to him by his master.
Last time, the task “Frame Fang Ze” had not been successful; this time, “Eliminate the Rejuvenation Society” could not fail again….
Thinking thus, he closed the message and then called out twice, “Old Duan! Old Duan!”
Upon hearing his call, the butler known as Old Duan hurriedly ran inside.
As soon as he entered the room and saw Jiang Cheng, Old Duan first respectfully greeted him, “Young Master, were you looking for me?”
After speaking, he paused, then with a worried expression, he said, “Young Master, have the dancers bored you already? Want to change them?” freēwēbnovel.com
He advised, “Young Master, forgive your subordinate for speaking out, but there’s more and more gossip about you in the family. I think… it would be better if we go back to Emerald City sooner, to prove them wrong.”
“If you haven’t had enough fun, we can also bring those dancers and servants back to Emerald City; it’s better than staying here and being pointed at…”
Hearing Old Duan’s words, Jiang Cheng’s face stiffened, and he couldn’t help but snort, “I am the son of the family head, who dares to gossip?”
“In the future, if you encounter those who dare to talk nonsense, just take down their names and tell me, and see how I deal with them!”
Upon hearing this, Old Duan’s face grew even more worried. He wanted to persuade him further, mentioning that today was different from the past. The monster of the Jiang family, who had lain dormant for ten years, had suddenly completed the Yang Transformation and was striving to shed his mortality, and had even gained the approval of the Jiang family’s ancestors, soon to become the Young Master.
Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard Jiang Cheng say, “Nevertheless, it is indeed time to return to Emerald City.”
“Let’s do this. Pack your bags, and we’ll head back to Emerald City first thing tomorrow morning.”
Upon hearing Jiang Cheng’s sudden one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn in the conversation, Old Duan was stunned for a moment, then, bursting with joy, he said, “Really, Young Master?”
Jiang Cheng glanced at him sidelong and said haughtily, “Do I, Jiang Cheng, ever speak falsely?”
At his words, Old Duan couldn’t help but whisper tentatively again, “Then… should we bring the dancers with us?”
Jiang Cheng slapped his head, “Dancers, dancers! You think of nothing but dancers!”
“We are going back to Emerald City for business! What would it look like if we brought dancers along!”
At this, he coughed and then said, “Let them go a couple of days later, staggering the timing so it doesn’t look like I brought them, cough cough…”
Upon hearing this, Old Duan immediately started making gestures with his eyebrows, “Understood, understood. It’s they who miss the Young Master and want to visit him.”
Jiang Cheng smiled at him, revealing a “the child can be taught” smile…
….
The next day, morning.
Emerald City, Governing Hall.
Jing Tai’s office.
The man in a suit, Jing Tai, sat behind his desk, with Gu Qing and Xun Yi, the commanders of the Defense Team in Emerald City, standing in front of him.
The three of them stood there, reporting to him the official personnel for today’s operation.
“Commissioner. Today, the Security Bureau and the Defense Team deployed a total of 800 Awakeners, 120 Fusers, and one Spirit Ascension-stage individual.”
“It’s more than three times the target’s force; we believe it will certainly be foolproof.”
Having listened to Xun Yi’s report, Jing Tai nodded, then asked, “Have all procedures been followed?”
Upon his inquiry, Xun Yi hesitated for a moment before responding, “On the Security Bureau’s end, Director Bai has signed off on it. He agrees to this operation.”
Although unsure why Jing Tai would ask about this topic, the commander of the Defense Team thought Jing Tai was just being cautious, so he too nodded and said, “Now in Emerald City, only you and Commissioner Jiang remain as dedicated commissioners.”
“With Commissioner Jiang, the First Commissioner, not present, your authorization is valid. So, the procedure is also fine.”
Having heard them say this, especially Xun Yi’s feedback, Jing Tai nodded satisfactorily.
Just as he nodded, suddenly, the door to his office was knocked on loudly from the outside.
Seeing this, Jing Tai gestured for the others to wait briefly, then spoke to the person outside, “Please come in.”
The office door was pushed open, and his secretary quickly walked in, coming up to his side and then whispering, “Commissioner, Commissioner Jiang is back.”
Startled by his secretary’s words, Jing Tai turned and glanced at him, “Commissioner Jiang is back?”
He frowned slightly, glanced at the commander of the Defense Team, and then softly asked, “Has he done anything after returning?”
The secretary whispered, “Upon his return, he asked about the deployment of the Defense Team and the Security Bureau, and then…”
Jing Tai looked surprised for a moment, then his frown deepened, “He… is dissatisfied with these deployments?”
The secretary looked embarrassed, “Not really, on the contrary, he seemed quite happy upon hearing that you had assembled the troops?”
