Chapter 763 The contending Wang Yun

“Faceplate?” Xiaoyu was stunned when she heard what Hassan said. “Why would you have them forge you a faceplate?”

Yan Liuyuan looked at Xiaoyu and said with a smile, “It’s because I’m too young, so I often lack an authoritative figure. The faceplate might help with stabilizing the authority of the imperial court.” In truth, he did not finish his explanation. Gods needed to portray a sense of mysteriousness, and since the grasslands needed a god now, he would be that god to them.

Xiaoyu looked at Yan Liuyuan. She wanted to say something to him but hesitated. In the end, she just straightened his collar and said, “I’ll go and brief Tsetseg on the things to watch out for on the journey. You have to come back safely from this expedition to the South. As long as you’re safe, nothing else matters.” “Mhm.” Yan Liuyuan nodded.

After that, Xiaoyu went out. Then Hassan came in respectfully and handed the black faceplate to Yan Liuyuan.

Yan Liuyuan saw the black faceplate was engraved with a ferocious face that looked very solemn and dignified. Yan Liuyuan looked at Hassan. “I’m happy. You can get back to your work.”

After Hassan left, Yan Liuyuan held the mask and took a close, long look at it. In the end, he sighed and put it aside.

Outside the main tent, the pounding of horse hooves sounded. Someone jumped off the horse and got down on one knee outside the tent. “Master, a Qing Consortium envoy is waiting outside. He said that he’s brought you what you need the most.”

Yan Liuyuan smiled. Although he did not know what the smart Qing Zhen would send him, he reckoned he was ready to make the trip to the South now.

Outside the Sacred Mountains, Wang Yun, the director of the Kong Consortium’s 2nd Military Intelligence Division, was rushing towards the black market in the South. Before he could reach the black market, he saw people who had set up camp 40 kilometers to the north of it.

The way the tents were set up looked really familiar.

When he got closer, Wang Yun realized that even the troops who had set up camp here looked really familiar.

Weren’t they his 200-odd subordinates? What were they doing here?!

When the sentry who was keeping watch from a hidden post outside the campsite spotted Wang Yun, he immediately came out of the forest and shouted in joy, “Sir, you’re back!”

Seeing that none of Wang Yun’s subordinates who had followed him were dead, the sentry was even happier. It looked like their commander’s operation had gone very smoothly this time. They didn’t even suffer any loss of personnel!

Wang Yun was confused when he saw the campsite. “Didn’t you all head into the mountains? Weren’t you all following me?”

The 200-odd subordinates who rushed out of the campsite were also confused. “Sir, didn’t you tell us to retreat? We found the mark you left behind.”

Wang Yun nearly spat out a mouthful of blood. This was probably the biggest mistake he had made ever since he joined the intelligence agency. He knew his comrades would not lie. Someone must have changed the marks he left behind, and it led them to retreat from the mountains.

There was only one thought in his mind right now. ‘Who the fuck did that?! You’re way too fucking horrible!’

However, Wang Yun did not have time to think about that now. He said, “Follow me back to the Kong Consortium immediately. We mustn’t trust anyone from the other intelligence divisions that we encounter on our way back. If anyone inexplicably approaches, get ready to fight immediately and kill without mercy.”

The final steps of a tightrope walk were the most dangerous. Now that Wang Yun had stolen the hard drive from Wang Wenyan, he had to use it to face his other two competitors.

It would definitely not be safe for them on the way back. When they left, everyone sent them off with a smile on their faces. Now that they wanted to go back now, it would probably be harder than reaching heaven.

Someone might try to kill him on his way back.

Just as Wang Yun had expected, after they set off for the Kong Consortium, they were ambushed about a 100 kilometers away from the Kong Consortium’s stronghold that very night.

But Wang Yun was also very tough. He led his subordinates and fought their way out of the ambush.

Fortunately for him, his enemies had probably not expected Wang Yun to escape unscathed from the Sacred Mountains nor his subordinates to have all survived.

Although his two competitors wanted to kill him, they could not cause too much of a commotion. As a result, the numbers they sent for the ambush were even fewer than Wang Yun’s men.

Wang Yun suddenly felt a little grateful to whoever had set him up. At least by tampering with the marks, he was able to preserve all his forces.

When they arrived at the Kong Consortium’s stronghold the next day, the soldiers at the gate seemed to have been ordered to interrogate them and deliberately delay Wang Yun from entering the stronghold.

The commander of the garrison troops at the stronghold’s gate said awkwardly, “Director Wang Yun, we’re just following orders here. All we ask is that you come back after three days.”

Wang Yun suddenly realized the decision to appoint the next intelligence director might have an outcome soon!

No, he could not just sit back and do nothing!

Wang Yun said in a low voice with a dark expression, “I’m not sure who instigated you, but have you ever thought about how dangerous it would be for you to get embroiled in the contention for the director of the intelligence agency? You’re Qian Yiwen, right? Your family lives at 76 Deyang Street, and you have a wife and a daughter. You even kept a mistress at Xixing Street and she gave birth to a son for you last year. I remember that your father-in-law still has many ex-subordinates in the military, right? Your position as company commander was also given to you by your father-in-law. How do you think he’ll deal with you if he finds out that you’re having an affair? Two years ago, you got into a fight after getting drunk. In the end, you did not even pay for the crime after killing someone and still brought your troops to threaten the safety of the victim’s family. Do you think all of this would be enough for you to be court martialed?”

Wang Yun’s memory really was terrifying. Just by seeing Qian Yiwen, he managed to accurately regurgitate specific information about him. Qian Yiwen blanched. As expected, he really could not afford to offend someone from the intelligence agency.

Moreover, Qian Yiwen realized Wang Yun seemed to have predicted he would be stopped from entering the city. Therefore, he had grasped their weaknesses before he left so he could safely return to the city at this time.

Wang Yun was no ordinary person. How could he not have thought of this day when he made the trip out of the Kong Consortium?

Qian Yiwen was conflicted for a long time before turning to his subordinates and saying, “Open the gate!”

Wang Yun heaved a sigh of relief. He smiled at Qian Yiwen. “You’ll be rewarded handsomely.”

With that, he led his troops back into the city. The first thing he did was not to report to Kong Donghai about his work but to return to his safe house in the Kong Consortium to check out what was on the hard drive.

When he saw the contents, he was shocked. Wang Yun had never thought the thing he had gotten his hands on would turn out to be so important!

“Prep a vehicle for me.” Wang Yun said to his subordinate, “I need to make a trip to the secret prison to interrogate the Pyro Company member who’s being held in custody!”

If the contents of the hard drive were really effective, the Pyro Company would not be able to withstand a single blow from the Kong Consortium.

Furthermore, Wang Yun would be assured of his place as the director of the intelligence agency, and no one else would have the right to compete with him!

Wang Yun had not expected Wang Wenyan to present him with such a generous gift!

However, he would have to try it out personally and confirm its effectiveness before handing it over to the boss
