Chapter 413 - 172: The Genius Analysis With No Solution (Ten-Thousand-Word Update)_3

Back when Zili had an affair with another Grandmaster, she used to listen to him recount numerous tales from Yu Jing City when she was idle.

The Grandmaster had once lavished praise on Hong Huo’s exceptional talent.

That’s why Zili could determine all of this.

"No... what nonsense are you spouting..."

Su Yue frowned, a momentary anomaly appeared in his pupils, but it was only for a fleeting moment before they returned to calm.

Indeed!

He was slightly unsettled by this revelation.

No doubt.

It was Hong Huo.

And Su Yue himself was stunned to the point of being tongue-tied by Zili’s rich and plausible reasoning.

I tell a lie, and you manage to come up with so many conspiracies.

Young City Lord?

Should I, the City Lord, really admit this?

Doesn’t it seem a bit hypocritical!

It doesn’t quite fit my breezy personality as the City Lord.

"I, your servant, pay my respects to the Young City Lord."

Suddenly, Zili knelt down to him like this.

Exactly.

Even when threatened, Zili and Lan Lu were both quite proud and never knelt to him.

"I, your servant, was unaware of your identity as the Young City Lord Hong Huo, I was too reckless.

"Earlier, I was worried you would abandon Lan Lu, but since you are the Young City Lord, you surely need loyal subordinates, and Lan Lu will undoubtedly assist you to the fullest."

Zili quickly remarked.

Now, all worries could be set aside completely.

Huang Dou was indeed the Young City Lord.

He truly lacked talents under his command. He came to Dianshi City to recruit more.

Next time when meeting Lan Lu, inform him that there’s no need for clever tricks, just wholeheartedly assist Young City Lord Hong Huo to avoid raising suspicion from the Young City Lord.

Perhaps, this is also an opportunity.

With the Young City Lord’s potential, he can soon break through to the sixth grade, or even the seventh grade.

Following a new master is better than merely guarding the gate.

Moreover, I can also rise to prominence along with him.

"Stand up.

"I’m saying it again, I’m Huang Dou, not Hong Huo."

Su Yue impatiently waved his hand, emphasizing again.

He wondered if Zili was prying too much; such a vague answer seemed intriguing.

"I, your servant, understand, you’re Huang Dou, the Inner Camp Guard of Tree Banner Garrison Camp.

"Don’t think I don’t know, you’ve secretly taken control over the entire Guard Camp.

"Indeed, it’s the spirit and method of the Young City Lord."

Again Zili mentioned.

She felt with her strategic and analytical skills, she should be on the battlefield, competing against the Wuwen Race’s tactics.

"Enough nonsense, I want that stone slab."

Su Yue reiterated.

"Young City Lord, it’s really impossible to take the stone slab down, or you’ll be in great danger.

"I heard from the black banner, just simply touching the stone slab can allow you to comprehend battle techniques; why don’t you... try touching it to see?"

Zili thought for a moment and suggested.

"Sigh, this is the only way."

Actually, this was also Su Yue’s plan.

Since there is a seal preventing removal, the only option is to cultivate right there.

"Young City Lord, are you worried the guards might see it and gossip?"

Zili asked considerately.

After all, the stone slab hangs outside the door, Su Yue’s sensibility can be seen by everyone.

"You can sit inside the gate, drill a hole from within, extend your hand out to touch the stone slab.

"I’ll be outside the door, wrapping the stone slab with animal hide; if there’s any strange brilliance, it can also be covered. If anyone gets curious, I’ll say it’s the Camp General’s order; anyway, others wouldn’t dare question it."

Zili offered another considerate small tactic.

Su Yue inhaled sharply.

This little brat, could she be using Mind Reading Technique?

His original plan was to bore a hole from inside, and cultivate while touching the stone slab.

But he was worried about the stone slab glowing, because it indeed glows during cultivation.

This person actually had a solution in mind already.

Indeed.

Having a capable subordinate can save a lot of brainpower.

But having a spy is practically a disaster.

Speaking of spies, Su Yue thought of Jiao Qingyuan.

This beast.

"Also, about the medicine I wanted..."

Su Yue composed himself, but before he finished speaking, Zili had already thoughtfully interrupted.

"I understand, you’ve infiltrated Dianshi City alone, it’s inconvenient to carry a lot of medicine with you.

"If this batch isn’t enough, I’ll arrange for people to buy more.

"We can even use source minerals to secretly exchange in other cities; I assure you I’ll get you the best medicine.

"You’re the Young City Lord, the techniques you cultivate surely differ from ordinary people, so it’s expected that you need a large amount of medicine.

"I’m really envious."

Such talent.

Such talent!

Truly, a woman capable of Mind Reading Technique.

Zili’s thoughtfulness made Su Yue profoundly understand why a foolish ruler is often born.

With this kind of person, who needs to use their brain?

Indeed.

A femme fatale, no, full of ulterior motives.

Women!

Scoundrels!

Both are terrifying, really terrifying.

"Alright, you make arrangements to cover the stone slab, I’ll go back and tidy up, notify me when you’re ready."

Su Yue shook his head, turned around, and left.

"As you command, my Young City Lord."

Zili quickly knelt down.

The light in her eyes glistened.

An excited glow, an exhilarated glow.

She’s attached herself to the Young City Lord’s grand tree, coupled with her strategy, she’s bound to shine in the future.

What accomplishments could there be with a useless Seventh-Grade Camp General?

Alas.

A woman’s life is still bitter.
