Chapter 325: Yin Baobao Enters the Escort Bureau (Part 2)
"
"No, but... the Hall Master should know."
Tang Zheng said, "Whether others know or not, I don’t know."
"The Hall Master knows? How so?"
"Because the Hall Master never asked, and no one knows when Zhao Zhi Shi was taken away; she didn’t even take leave from the Chancellor Hall. So, it must be that the higher-ups know about it."
The Chancellor Hall is under the jurisdiction of the Battle Hall, and I asked my brother-in-law about it. He said he didn't know, so it must be the Hall Master who is aware."
Tang Zheng analyzed the situation thoroughly.
Fang Che couldn't help but sigh, as expected... everyone has their own use.
A person like Tang Zheng, although lacking in combat and other aspects, excels in gathering information, especially gossip. He has an absolute talent for it!
Fang Che is now contemplating something: which side does Zhao Ying'er belong to?
Although he is handsome, Zhao Ying'er had given him a letter not long after his arrival.
Fang Che still feels suspicious about this.
Although he is popular, shouldn't a girl be more reserved in such matters?
Or perhaps, he should observe for a longer period.
If it's just about looks and falling in love at first sight... Fang Che shook his head.
For the female chancellor in the Guardian Pavilion to choose a lifelong partner so hastily and superficially...
In other places, even at the White Cloud Martial Academy, Fang Che wouldn't find it unusual, but in the Guardian Pavilion, among these people who have witnessed life and death...
This speed is still a bit too fast.
"Forget it, I'll come back eventually."
Fang Che thought to himself.
...
As he walked, he reached the tavern where Fang Zhi Shi and Zhao Wushang had drunk together. Fang Che's gaze became fixed.
Suddenly, his heart felt a bit clearer.
His restlessness indicated that something was amiss.
Ye Meng was fine at home, and the White Cloud Martial Academy was also peaceful; even the Guardian Pavilion seemed calm.
Moreover, all of them could be contacted at any time.
Therefore, the only place that couldn't be reached was the Escort Bureau.
Could something have happened at the Escort Bureau? Fang Che pondered as he looked at the sky, still bright in the afternoon. "Tang Zheng, take the notes you just made and bring them back. Let them make the necessary changes. I have something to attend to, so I won't be returning to the pavilion this afternoon."
"Yes!"
Tang Zheng stood at attention.
Fang Che turned and left, his black robe flowing behind him, and the collar shimmering with golden stars.
Facing the setting sun, his entire being seemed to glow.
Everyone he encountered along the way respectfully saluted him.
Those who knew him were even more enthusiastic.
"General Fang! General Fang is here in person again?"
"General Fang, you're so dedicated."
"General Fang..."
Fang Che greeted them with a smile.
On his way home, Ye Meng was surprised. "Why are you back so early today?"
"I have something to attend to."
Fang Che hurried into the study, "Don't disturb me until tonight."
Ye Meng pouted.
He had wanted to tell her about his breakthrough to the Fifth Rank of the Field Commander level.
However, it seemed like this guy was going to be a commander again... Hmph, as if I didn't know.
But Ye Meng soon became engrossed in her thoughts.
Fang Che didn't wait until midnight as usual; it was only afternoon, and there was still a long time before nightfall. Was he going to the branch office? Could something have happened there?
Ye Meng furrowed her brows.
She then returned to her room and wrote a report.
If her guess was correct, the Yi Xin Jiao branch office must have something important going on, which warranted Fang Che's urgent departure... it must be significant.
...
Fang Che changed into his clothes and transformed into Yin Xiu, the head escort leader, also known as the Star Commander. With a swift motion, he darted off, moving stealthily through several streets before boldly striding down the main street.
Yin Xiu, the head escort leader, was now a well-known figure on the White Cloud Continent.
There was no need to hide his identity.
As he walked, more and more people greeted him.
The head escort leader maintained his composure throughout the journey, his ugly face contorting into an even uglier smile as he laughed heartily.
But everyone on this street was used to it.
They all laughed cheerfully.
At most, they might have a nightmare about that ugly face later.
Upon entering the Escort Bureau, the head escort leader asked the gatekeeper, "Have there been any unusual occurrences today?"
"Unusual occurrences?"
The gatekeeper was taken aback, "Everything is normal. I haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary."
The head escort leader was stunned, "Nothing at all?"
"It's just like any other day. We've been receiving clients, conducting business, practicing martial arts... The escorts who were scheduled to depart have already left. I'm not sure about those scheduled for the afternoon."
Fang Che was puzzled.
This doesn't make sense. I rushed over here, and yet nothing has happened?
With his doubts, he continued walking inside.
Everything seemed normal.
Upon reaching the main hall, he sat on the throne, furrowing his brows in deep thought: What's wrong here?
...
The head escort leader arrived, causing a stir in the Escort Bureau. Those with reports rushed over to his side.
The head escort leader was like a dragon, rarely seen but always heard.
He was often hard to find, even for urgent matters. But now that he had finally arrived, all issues would be resolved at this moment.
In the financial department, Wu Lianlian also rushed over.
"The head escort leader is here. If you have something urgent, please attend to it quickly."
They informed each other.
In the reception room, the four representatives of the Yin Shen Gong had expressions of surprise on their faces.
Zhou Meier was perplexed. I also heard that the head escort leader had arrived, but why do these four have such peculiar expressions on their faces?
"It seems like the esteemed head escort leader has arrived."
Yin Shen Gong spoke indifferently, "Should we go out to pay our respects?"
"How could we? It's fine for the four esteemed guests to remain seated. I'll go and inform the head escort leader. He handles matters swiftly and will come to meet with the four esteemed guests shortly."
Zhou Meier stood up with an apologetic smile, "Please, have a seat."
She then left the room.
The etiquette was still as meticulous as ever.
In the reception room, only the four representatives of the Yin Shen Gong remained. They looked at each other, all with amused smiles on their faces.
After enduring for half a day,
He finally couldn't hold it in any longer.
"It's truly extraordinary..."
Mu Lin Yuan raised his thumb, "Sect Leader, on this trip, I, an old man, have truly broadened my horizons. Our Only Righteous Sect, often referred to as the Demon Sect... In my lifetime, I never imagined that our branch office could thrive so prosperously in a city!"
"Indeed, although other branch offices and halls have also been established with great success, but which one can compare to the current Heaven's Escort Bureau?
"... the role model of the world."
When Qian Sanjiang said the words "role model of the world," he couldn't help but laugh.
Yin Shengong and the others also laughed heartily. Indeed, these four words made the four old demons feel that everything was tinged with a strange, dreamlike quality.
...
Outside, the voice of the Chief Escort Leader could be heard scolding: "What's this mess? Get quiet! Calm down! What's going on? Are you all forgetting your rules?"
"… For something like this, you come to me? What the hell is wrong with your brain? Was it eaten by a dog? Can you handle it or not? If not, get someone else! Get lost!"
"… Debt? There's actually debt? What the hell are you eating? How dare someone owe me money! Go collect it with interest!"
"What kind of cooperation? So far away, what the hell are you cooperating for? What's wrong with your brain!"
"Training injury? Damn, you haven't even died on the road, and you got injured in a training fight? Dead yet? Not dead? I'll have you hung and beaten! Damn, what can't you do? You can't even eat properly!"
"Are you all itching for a beating? Have I been too nice to you these past few days? Too pleasant? This is a mess! Is this still my Heaven's Escort Bureau?"
"Damn! There's a Code Examination tonight!"
"I've told you countless times, to smile and serve, to smile, understand? Don't cry!"
"Obey the law, be good citizens! Have morals, have discipline, we are the role model of the world... Damn, is this how you become role models?"
"Where is your spirit and energy?"
"Go out, each of us is a great hero! Do you understand? Gentlemen! Damn, gentlemen! I'll emphasize it again, we are all gentlemen! Understand!?"
"..."
The Chief Escort Leader's scolding was so unique.
Yin Shengong and the others listened in the reception room, nearly laughing their guts out.
"Damn... too much fun!"
Mu Lin Yuan, rubbing his belly, laughed until tears streamed down his face: "This is the first time in my life I've been so happy..."
Yin Shengong also had a pained expression, trying to maintain the dignity of the Sect Leader, his face contorted with effort.
"Ha ha ha..."
Qian Sanjiang laughed so hard he was slapping Hou Fang's thigh, while Hou Fang, unable to stop laughing, kept pushing Qian Sanjiang away...
...
Just then...
The Chief Escort Leader shouted: "Who's laughing? So loud?"
Zhou Meier's voice replied: "It's like this, four important clients have arrived, saying they have extremely valuable goods to entrust us with... They are waiting for you in the reception room."
The Chief Escort Leader's voice: "What the hell is so valuable..."
Then he suddenly realized: "Clients? You didn't say there were clients? What about my image? Zhou Meier, what crime do you deserve!"
"I was wrong, Chief Escort Leader."
"Quick, take me there, just bowing your head and apologizing... How can we keep clients waiting? They are our patrons!"
Then came the sound of hurried footsteps.
The door opened.
Chief Escort Leader Yin Xiu, with a warm and friendly smile: "Four esteemed guests, ha ha ha... What?"
Chief Escort Leader Yin Xiu's smile froze on his face.
His eyes nearly popped out of his sockets.
His knees suddenly went weak, and he almost knelt down...
Yin Shengong actually stood up, smiling kindly: "You must be Chief Escort Leader Yin Xiu, I've heard much about you."
Zhou Meier introduced from behind: "Chief Escort Leader, this is Boss Yin, this is Boss Qian..."
The Chief Escort Leader, who was about to kneel, straightened up and said enthusiastically: "Four esteemed guests, ha ha... Truly outstanding people... You can leave now, I'll chat with the four guests."
"Understood."
Zhou Meier left and closed the door.
"Master!"
Starlight Commander, with his ugly face, knelt down, tears streaming: "Disciple greets Master, greets the three Masters."
"Get up."
Yin Shengong was a bit moved: "Don't kneel, you're still the Chief Escort Leader."
"Understood."
Starlight Commander leaped up and hugged Yin Shengong: "Master, you're out, ha ha ha..."
Yin Shengong pushed him away hard: "Go away... This face is too ugly, it makes me sick."
Starlight Commander chuckled, turned around, and hugged Mu Lin Yuan: "Second Master!"
"Third Master!"
"Fourth Master!"
Starlight Commander's emotions were genuine, his eyes red, and he secretly wiped away tears.
"Why are you crying?" Yin Shengong frowned, scolding: "What kind of state is this!"
"Not crying!"
Starlight Commander stubbornly glared.
"Sit down, calm down."
Yin Shengong snorted, quite disgusted, but threw a handkerchief over: "Wipe your rabbit eyes."
"Disciple is happy..."
Starlight Commander wiped his eyes: "Too many things have happened, you all didn't come... I couldn't bear it alone, everything was fine, but Master Sun Yuan died... Died so tragically..."
His eyes were even redder: "You weren't here, I couldn't even find someone to talk to... I couldn't even find someone to cry to, I've been very strong, very strong! But I just couldn't hold back, why..."
"Why, in the Incubation to Immortality Plan, killing people is allowed, and the headquarters approves it, everything is normal. So many people in our Yi Xin Jiao have died, who did we seek revenge from?"
"Why should they seek revenge when their people die?"
"My good position was forced to become four that I can't even show my face..."
"Every day, one Martial Marquis, one Royal... coming to kill me, our Yi Xin Jiao is sealed off, no one can come out, only I am struggling here..."
Starlight Commander took a deep breath: "Master, you don't know... So many times, truly so many times, I was on the brink of life and death... Every time, I thought, if just one of you four was here... That would be enough."
"His voice was deep and somber, "Every time I talk to my master, I have to say everything is fine, everything is going smoothly... But over here, I can barely breathe. All the crises are on my shoulders, yet I dare not let my master worry... I can only say everything is fine, everything is going smoothly..."
"Finally, you've arrived!"
The Starlight Commander leaned against Yin Shengong, his face filled with longing. "I want to complain to you, Master!"
The four of Yin Shengong also sighed deeply.
Thinking of what Fang Zhe had said, it was truly a struggle for one person to endure.
Fighting alone.
Without any support.
Life and death hanging by a thread.
On the brink of the underworld.
Not a single word was false; it was indeed a miracle that this child had made it this far.
Indeed, the pressure was overwhelming!
Other sects could casually send their experts, but Yi Xin Jiao was truly unable to move a single step.
Mu Lin Yuan and Qian Sanjiang's eyes reddened as they thought of all that had happened. This child had truly endured so much.
Unable to hold back their empathy, Yin Shengong sighed, "You've endured so much, my child."
The Starlight Commander's face relaxed as he said, "Now that you're here, I can finally take a few days off. Master, please stay here for a few more days and take charge of the branch for me. I can finally rest and catch up on some sleep. During this time, I've been so afraid that I couldn't even close my eyes to sleep."
Yin Shengong scolded, "We're here just to visit, how can we have the time to help you manage the branch? Do you want to demote your master to a commander?"
The Starlight Commander wiped away his tears and smiled, "How could that be... How could my master be demoted..."
Yin Shengong closed his eyes in disgust, baring his teeth and grimacing, "Find a better place to talk and restore your face. I can't stand looking at your ugly face, it's disgusting... How did you end up with such a face?"
"But wasn't it the master's specific instruction?"
The Starlight Commander complained, "The master specifically instructed the codename Starlight, with an ugly appearance... I followed your instructions and created this face that can scare girls into having nightmares, yet you still reject it..."
Mu Lin Yuan and the other two couldn't help but smile secretly.
Yin Shengong's face was filled with helplessness, "I said to make it a little ugly, but not to the extreme. Look at you... I can't bear to look."
Mu Lin Yuan spoke from the side, "I think you're still too young. Your master often forgets what he says later, and you followed his words completely. You might have even committed a crime by doing so. If you get punished, remember to be more mindful in the future."
These words were not easy to hear.
They carried a hidden meaning.
Yin Shengong's face darkened, "Old Mu, you need to be careful with your words. What do you mean by 'forgetting later'? I'm telling you, this is not a time to slander."
Although these words were said in a playful tone, Mu Lin Yuan knew that Yin Shengong was a bit angry.
And he was also worried about exposing his shortcomings.
Humming to himself, he remained silent, having already achieved his goal.
...
The master and his four disciples calmed their emotions and sat down together for tea.
But the Starlight Commander's face was truly hideous.
Not only was Yin Shengong unable to bear the sight, but even Mu Lin Yuan and the others felt uncomfortable the more they looked at it.
Amidst the requests, the Starlight Commander suggested, "Let's go home? It's quieter there."
"Good idea!"
The four of them readily agreed.
They stood up, eager to leave.
So, the Chief Escort Leader, Yin Xiu, personally opened the door and accompanied the four bosses outside.
Along the way, he was extremely cautious, bowing and being extremely careful and respectful.
Yin Shengong scolded, "Relax and act naturally."
"Hehe, yes, hehe..."
Yin Xiu, the Chief Escort Leader, tried to appear calm, but his face remained servile, bowing and scraping like a sycophant...
"Oh..."
The four of them walked out with dark faces.
This young man was beyond help.
It was better to leave quickly.
As they watched the Chief Escort Leader and the guests leave, Zhou Meier and the others were about to approach them, but they saw the Chief Escort Leader acting like a servile underling, bowing and scraping, and kowtowing to the bosses.
He tried to support Yin Boss, but the latter brushed him off with a sleeve.
His face still filled with embarrassment, he tried to support him again, only to be pushed away once more.
So, he turned to support Qian Boss, but even Qian Boss looked disgusted...
However, the Commander, with a face full of pride, eagerly welcomed them, running ahead to open the door with a flattering expression.
The four bosses walked out with their heads held high, while the Commander followed behind, his head bobbing and tail wagging like a little dog seeking favor from its master.
Even at the main gate, he continued in the same manner.
He escorted them out with great enthusiasm, disappearing without a trace...
Everyone in the escort bureau was shocked into silence.
Is... Is that really our wild and unruly Commander, the tyrannical and foul-mouthed killer who never blinked an eye? In this situation, they seemed even more humble than we are in front of the Commander...
Zhao Wu Shang and Zheng Yunqi stood in front of Zhou Meier simultaneously, "Who are those four people?"
Zhou Meier's face turned pale, "They said... they're merchants here to discuss business with the Chief Escort Leader..."
"Merchants?"
Zhao Wu Shang and Zheng Yunqi's faces also paled, "When did you see the Chief Escort Leader treating merchants like this... like this..."
Zhou Meier's face grew even paler, "Could it be..."
Suddenly, she exclaimed, "One of them said his name was Yin... Yin? My goodness..."
Zhou Meier took a step back, almost stumbling.
Her pretty face lost its color.
...
As usual, please remember to vote.
