Chapter 635 Weakness
"Where is the deputy commander-in-chief?"

Fang Yu immediately became alert and asked.

But Chi Gaohan simply strode to the table in the middle of the room and slapped a letter on the table.

"Today at noon, at Zhang's house, take the personal letter from the deputy commander-in-chief and you will meet the person you want to see."

Fang Yu was stunned, then immediately understood.

"Gui Yao? He's in Zhang's house? Have you contacted him?"

"Yes."

Fang Yu immediately became excited.

He had been in Thunder City for so long, traveling to many places, just to find out the news about his elder brother.

And now, he finally has the chance to meet Hui Yao and get closer to the result he wants.

Fang Yu walked quickly forward, but saw Chi Gaohan suddenly pressing the note heavily with his big hand.

Fang Yu didn't dare to snatch it away by force. If the note was damaged and no longer valid, he would not be able to see the person again.

Immediately, Fang Yu stopped.

"What do you mean?"

He frowned and looked at Chi Gaohan.

"I haven't conveyed the Deputy Commander's message yet."

What? Ding Hui has already fought for your rebel army, what else do you need us for?
Fang Yu felt emotional, but he quickly suppressed it.

At this time, Chi Gaohan cleared his throat and said in a strange and deep voice: "Diao Deyi, you first violated the agreement and wantonly killed the demons lurking in the city, and then killed Xing Xueman, the head of Yudi Mansion. This has completely disrupted our plan. You should have been our hidden backup, but now you appear in front of the stage ahead of time... To be honest, both I and President Marshal are a little disappointed in you this time."

"But we believe that your original intention is good. You want to do more for the people of Thunder City. It's just that you lack some discipline and control."

"This time, the thunderous counterattack of the Yudi Mansion caused our rebel army to suffer heavy losses. I hope you can learn from this lesson and be more cautious the next time you act."

"This letter on the table is a token that can prove your identity to Huiyao, and it is also a bridge of trust between us and Huiyao. If you mess it up, our connection with Huiyao will be completely terminated. I hope you can understand what this trust represents."

"To be honest, I personally don't agree with this. I think you will make us cut off our connection with Huiyao and cut off an important source of intelligence clues to the ten major families. But President Marshal thinks that the reward and punishment should be balanced, and you still deserve a reward, so... this is what you deserve. But... we have to make three rules."

"First, you can take the token and go trade with Huiyao on behalf of the Rebels. But you have to promise that no matter what happens, you must make the transaction go smoothly, pay the money and return to the Rebels with the goods."

"Second, you are not allowed to hurt Hui Yao in any way, no matter if he is the real Hui Yao or not!"

"Third, no matter what you saw in Zhang's house... don't do anything unnecessary."

"If you violate any of the above points, think clearly about one thing... Doctor Ding is still in the rebel base. You may face a double wanted warrant from both the Yudifu and the rebels."

Having said this, Chi Gaohan breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had accomplished something great and sacred.

Then, he heard...

"Are you imitating the deputy commander's voice?"

brush--

Chi Gaohan glared at Fang Yu, as if to say, "You are the one who talks too much."

"That's all the Deputy Commander-in-Chief left behind. Minister Diao, you must think carefully about your words and actions in the future."

It was as if he was taking chicken feathers as a token of authority, and he actually felt that he was superior.

Fang Yu turned his head to look at Qiu Xiaoping, who just shrugged helplessly and then said to Chi Gaohan.

"Captain Chi, you've worked hard. Let me persuade Master Diao from now on. You go back and have a rest first."

Qiu Xiaoping's words are still effective, at least they make people feel comfortable.

Chi Gaohan nodded slightly, glanced at Fang Yu again, and strode out of the room.

That posture actually feels a bit arrogant...

Does he think that after the deputy commander criticized him, his status within the rebel army is higher than mine, the minister?

Fang Yu scratched his head, unable to understand where this guy's arrogant attitude came from.

As the door closed, only Fang Yu and Qiu Xiaoping were left in the room.

Fang Yu went up and glanced at the letter on the table, and found that it was just a simple list of goods, with a special seal mark on the lower right corner, which should be the key to this item being used as a token of trust.

Put it away carefully, Fang Yu looked at Qiu Xiaoping.

"Master Qiu, when do we leave?"

"Not urgent."

Qiu Xiaoping found a seat in the room and sat down, and continued: "Do you understand what the deputy commander-in-chief means? The deputy commander-in-chief's three rules are not just talk."

She seemed a little afraid that Fang Yu would be too impulsive and reckless and get into trouble again. Then... if it was really as the deputy commander left a message, their rebel army would hunt down Fang Yu.

Qiu Xiaoping didn't want the masters she had worked so hard to recruit to end up fighting against each other.

"Don't worry, I understand what the deputy commander means, and I know my limits."

Anyway, just let yourself go through the process, be a tool of the rebels, don't do any unnecessary operations, can't hurt Huiyao in the slightest, go through the process like a puppet, and return to the rebel base with the slaves that the rebels want to purchase, then you will complete the mission.

This thing, to put it bluntly, is similar to a cutscene CG. Even if you can do something, you can't do it and can only watch. The rebels only provided such a person, and replaced the person who was originally responsible for connecting with Huiyao from someone else to himself, but the results the rebels wanted could not have any deviation.

Ding Hui is still in the hands of the rebels, Fang Yu will not act recklessly.

However, this feeling of being controlled by others made Fang Yu somewhat uncomfortable.

However, the Yudi Mansion was searching the entire city for the two people. Without the protection of the rebels, it was almost impossible to avoid the Yudi Mansion's search.

And if the meeting with Hui Yao goes wrong and fails... then he will have to face the joint pursuit of Yudifu and the Rebel Army, the two strongest organizations under the top ten families in Leiting City. That scene... he simply dares not imagine it.

In addition, there is Ding Hui, who is trapped by the rebels...

Fang Yu's eyes turned a little colder.

If the rebel army cannot be relied upon, he can only consider taking Ding Hui away from Thunder City.

The whereabouts of the eldest brother is important, but if something happens to Ding Hui, everything will be over.

Sandwiched between two major forces, it is quite difficult for Fang Yu to fight his way out.

After all, the hall masters and ministers of these two major forces are already on par with him, and the commanders and palace masters above them are even more unfathomable...

"Master Diao?"

Qiu Xiaoping's voice brought Fang Yu back to his senses suddenly.

Fang Yu then noticed that Qiu Xiaoping had left her seat at some point and was standing in front of him, very close to him.

"what?"

Snapped.

Without any warning, Qiu Xiaoping placed her two warm palms on the back of Fang Yu's hands.

“Master Diao, you’ve made a mistake once. It was your continuous killing of monsters that caused the pursuit of Yu Difu and the death of Yu Difu’s leader. Don’t think that our righteous army did something wrong. It was you who made the mistake first… But we still want to believe in you. The commander-in-chief and the deputy commander-in-chief are willing to give you another chance. Don’t mess it up again, otherwise…”

That worried look didn't seem fake.

However, Fang Yu has known for a long time that Qiu Xiaoping is a good person and can talk. He has had contact with Qiu Xiaoping several times.

Fang Yu said with a smile.

"My wife is still in the stronghold. What can I do? Lord Qiu is worrying too much." These words, like a needle prick, suddenly seemed to hurt Qiu Xiaoping, and her expression froze.

The hands that were tightly holding Fang Yu also unconsciously loosened their grip.

"We... don't mean this. At least I definitely don't want to do this."

As she spoke, a mist appeared in her eyes, which made Fang Yu feel puzzled.

"No, no, no! I don't mean to target you. I'm just stating a fact. You don't have to take it to heart."

"…I can't make the decision on this matter. I will discuss this matter with the deputy commander. We won't keep Doctor Ding locked up forever! She shouldn't be treated like this. This has nothing to do with her…"

Fang Yu frowned.

He couldn't quite tell whether Qiu Xiaoping was sincere or fake.

However, this does not affect his judgment. He will abide by the three rules of the rebel army and ask what he wants to ask under these rules.

However, after Hui Yao got the result and reunited with Ding Hui, Fang Yu was ready to discuss leaving Thunder City with Ding Hui.

He was not going to get involved in this mess between the rebel army and the Yuhendi anymore.

There is also Monk Quan Heng. I have to find a way to meet him. If I want to leave Thunder City, I may need to rely on his help.

"Master Diao, if you want to take Divine Doctor Ding away now, I won't stop you. In this stronghold, no one except me has the right to stop you. But... you have to think carefully. The entire Yudi Mansion is looking for you. Yudi Mansion guards the entrance and exit of Thunder City. You can't escape by yourself."

Fang Yu smiled and shook his head: "Who said I'm leaving? I was just confused before and a little eager for quick success. But I am loyal to the rebels. If the rebels are willing to give me another chance, I will naturally seize it. I will serve the rebels and make up for my mistakes! But Lord Qiu, you are a little sentimental today."

"..."

Qiu Xiaoping looked into Fang Yu's eyes, and after a moment, suddenly turned his back to Fang Yu.

"I'll go and see how the preparations for going to Zhang's house are going."

Tapping.

After a sound of footsteps, Qiu Xiaoping's figure disappeared from Fang Yu's sight.

Only when he was the only one left in the room did Fang Yu frown slightly. He was thinking about something.

After a while, a burst of nervous footsteps came from outside the door.

Then, Fang Yu saw a familiar-looking person, his head poking out of the door.

【Liu Qiner: 5/5. 】

"...Why is it you?" Fang Yu asked curiously.

Liu Qiner, who was holding the tea, suddenly became nervous.

With his head lowered, he quickly walked over to place the hot tea on Fang Yu's table, then bowed.

"Liu Qin'er, meet Master Diao!"

After saying that, she nervously came behind Fang Yu, looking like a maid.

Fang Yu tilted his head and looked at her: "The tea is here, aren't you leaving?"

Liu Qiner became even more nervous, and sweat could be seen on her forehead.

"...Following Lord Qiu's orders, I, I need to stay here and serve Lord Diao."

"Yeah."

Fang Yu picked up the teacup, blew on it, took a sip, and put it down.

At least, for now, he is still the minister of the rebel army, enjoying the treatment and status of a minister.

After thinking about it, Fang Yu decided to go see Ding Hui.

Just stood up and took two steps.

The little one behind him immediately followed.

An attentive service that follows you throughout the entire process?

Fang Yu glanced at her, which immediately scared Liu Qin'er. Fortunately, Fang Yu didn't say anything, but just quickened his pace, causing Liu Qin'er to jog instead of following him quickly. The sound of her footsteps in the corridor attracted many people on the road to look over here.

Chen Ya is one of them.

Since being recaptured by Qiu Xiaoping and becoming the spearhead of the rebel army, she has carried out one or two missions. Both her skills and ability to get things done have been appreciated by Qiu Xiaoping.

But Chen Ya was unhappy that he was not brought along for this mission.

After passing Fang Yu, she went straight to Qiu Xiaoping.

"Master Qiu, I want to participate in this mission! The Zhang family is one of the top ten families. This journey is dangerous, which is just right for me to gain experience! It will definitely help me break through the realm!"

"No! You are too inexperienced to be suitable for this mission."

Chen Ya was immediately dissatisfied.

"Then why was Shen Heilian able to participate? She has only just joined the rebel army!"

"It's different. Shen Baimeng became famous much earlier than you thought, and Hui Yao... should know her. I don't know where Hui Yao got the news for this meeting, but he specifically asked to see her, otherwise she wouldn't be on the list of people on this trip."

Chen Ya frowned, obviously unhappy. She took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Master Qiu, I think Shen Heilian's trip this time may be detrimental to the rebels. She is not loyal enough to the rebels. If she suddenly rebels and joins the Zhang family, wouldn't it expose a lot of intelligence of the rebels?"

"Don't worry. Whether it's you or Shen Baimeng, you can only get some superficial information about the rebels. If she betrays the rebels, it will only bring disaster to herself. And before this operation, I had Doctor Ding give her poison to make her behave herself. She dare not make any moves easily."

The blade is dangerous.

But it depends on how you use the blade.

Use it against the enemy, and it becomes the best spear. Use it against yourself, and it becomes dangerous.

"I am also willing to take the poison! Lord Qiu, please let me go with you!"

Qiu Xiaoping was surprised by Chen Ya's persistence, and she couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"Why are you willing to take poison and participate in this operation?"

"Your Excellency! This operation is led by Minister Diao, which is full of instability. In addition, it is a covert operation in Zhang's mansion, so conflicts are very likely to break out! It is full of dangers! And this is exactly the high-pressure environment I need to help me break through my strength!"

Chen Ya answered very honestly, but Qiu Xiaoping was too lazy to pay attention to her.

"No need to say more. This matter is over. You stay here and ensure the safety of everyone...especially the safety of Doctor Ding. Do you understand?"

"……Yes."

Chen Ya's disappointment was visibly evident, and she seemed to have truly determined that this operation would go wrong, because in her opinion, Diao Deyi had only gone out to kill a demon, but in the process killed the head of Yudi Mansion.

Then if we go to the top ten families, won’t there be another big commotion?
With such a hot temper, can he tolerate the arrogance of the ten major families? Conflict is inevitable!

But Chen Ya obviously did not realize the importance of Ding Hui in this.

No matter how impulsive Fang Yu is, he still has to consider Ding Hui's safety.

Therefore, Qiu Xiaoping was almost 90% sure that Fang Yu would not dare to do anything rash.

As the men reported, the team heading to Zhang's house had already assembled.

With the Yudi Mansion conducting a large-scale manhunt, going to the Zhang Mansion to do business is extremely risky, but the rebel army has its own methods.
