Chapter 10 Imperial Tutor Wang Yue
A month later.

Dragon Equipment Pavilion.

The night was as dark as ink, and everything was silent. The Dragon Equipment Pavilion, which was bustling during the day, was now quiet and solemn.

The two vermilion doors were tightly closed, the painted surface glowing dimly under the hazy moonlight. The pair of huge copper rings on the doors were like two deep eyes, silently gazing at the vicissitudes of the world.

The two stone beasts in front of the door are lifelike with their fangs and claws bared. Even in the quiet of the night, they exude a majestic aura.

The pavilion was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood.

The floor was covered with a thick Persian carpet, soft and gorgeous, and every step felt like walking on clouds.

Exquisite paintings are hung on the surrounding walls, depicting various forms of dragons, some soaring in the sky, some diving in the deep sea, and some lurking in the mountains and forests. Every stroke is outlined in detail and the colors are bright and eye-catching.

Various dragon weapons are placed on the display shelves, each of which exudes a mysterious and powerful aura.

There was a sword with a dragon pattern emitting a faint blue light. The dragon pattern on the sword seemed to be swimming slowly, and it seemed that it would take off into the air at any time.

There is a dragon-shaped shield inlaid with rubies. The gems are shining with a fiery light. The dragon on the shield is finely carved and the scales are lifelike, as if it can withstand the impact of thousands of troops.

These dragon weapons are all rare treasures, extremely powerful, and each one is worth a fortune!
Three kilometers away from the Dragon Weapon Pavilion, there is a Moon-Watching Tower.

This is the tallest building in Luoyang's West City. Sitting by the window on the top floor, you can overlook the entire West City and see everything going on in the Dragon Equipment Pavilion.

In the past, every night when the whole city was brightly lit, this place was always crowded with people, and everyone was vying to enjoy the prosperous night view of Luoyang City.

But today, the Moon-Watching Tower is quite empty.

There were only two people on the huge top floor.

One of them was tall and slender, with sharp eyes and a long sword at his waist. He was Shi A, the green-robed embroiderer of the Embroidered Guard who had met Ji Qiu once before.

But at this moment, there was no trace of the arrogant scrutiny on his face that he had when he met Ji Qiu. Instead, he stood behind with a look of humility and respect.

The person standing in front of him was wearing a purple robe and standing with his hands behind his back. The aura he exuded was as real as a substance, making people dare not look at him directly.

His face was cold and resolute, with lines as hard as if they were cut by a knife or an axe. Time and fighting had not left too many wrinkles on his face. Instead, his eyes were as deep as a cold pond, hiding endless sharp sword energy.

Her black hair was casually tied up, with a few strands of hair hanging down in front of her forehead, adding a bit of unruly and wildness.

There is an ancient long sword on his waist. The scabbard is dark, and a cold light shines through it, as if it can split the sky and the earth!

This is the commander-in-chief of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the imperial tutor Wang Yue!
Wang Yue also has another title, the Sword God.

Legend has it that his sword can split mountains!

"Ji Qiu made a bet with you that you would destroy the Dragon Weapon Pavilion within a month. Today is the last day. Why is there no movement yet?" Wang Yue said lightly.

Shi A said carefully: "Dragon Weapon Pavilion is an important source of income for the Sili Xiaowei Mansion in Luoyang. It is heavily guarded and heavily guarded. How can it be destroyed by just anyone?
Perhaps Ji Qiu was just saying it casually and didn't take it seriously."

"Tell me about it later? You don't seem to think much of Ji Qiu." Wang Yue said lightly.

Shi A frowned and said, "Master, I've never really understood why you value Ji Qiu so much.

After all, he is just a businessman.

In today's political situation, what use is a mere merchant to you?"

"Don't underestimate the heroes of this world! Ji Qiu's origins are mysterious. Even we, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, can't find out his background. This shows how powerful the power behind him is.

He had only been in Luoyang for three months when he had already established a firm foothold and even gained control of the knight-errant forces in the three cities.

If this task is given to you, even with the support of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, can you do it? He has done something that you can't do. Doesn't this prove that he is extraordinary?

"What qualifications do you have to look down on him?" Wang Yue said calmly.

Shi A was speechless and silent for a moment before he said, "But his origins are mysterious. Who knows what kind of power is hidden behind him? Shouldn't we investigate thoroughly and then recruit him for our own use?"

"Under normal circumstances, this is the way it should be. But time is of the essence now. Neither I nor Your Majesty can afford to wait any longer!

So no matter who he is, as long as he's an enemy of the aristocratic families and is useful and can be used, then we can use him!" Wang Yue said.

Shi A suddenly realized, "So, Master wants him to get rid of the Dragon Weapon Pavilion Master. Is this actually a test for him?

If he can successfully complete this task, it means he can use it.

But if he can’t accomplish this…”

"If I can't kill the Dragon Weapon Pavilion Master, no matter if it's a problem of ability or attitude, it means I can't use him, so there's no need to keep him." Wang Yue said coldly.

Shi A was startled and asked, "Master is going to attack him?"

"Why should I take action? The Dragon Weapon Pavilion will not let him go! We just need to stop protecting him." Wang Yue continued.

Shi A was stunned and suddenly said, "Wait, protection?

Yes, the Pavilion of Rare Treasures can now survive in Luoyang City, and Wei Yan can successfully subdue the three city wanderers, all because of our protection!

Master, you said that a month ago, after hearing my request, he increased the difficulty for himself and turned the task of killing the Dragon Weapon Pavilion Master into destroying the Dragon Weapon Pavilion.

They have extended the mission time to one month. Could it be that they are planning to use our Embroidered Uniform Guard's protection to develop their own strength? "

"Oh, it's not too late for you to react now!

This Ji Qiu is indeed extraordinary. I'm afraid that the moment he saw you, he already understood my purpose.

That's why they took advantage of the situation and increased the difficulty of the mission themselves in exchange for more benefits!" Wang Yue sneered.

Shi A's face flushed instantly. Fortunately, he had been with Wang Yue for a long time and was used to being laughed at, so he didn't feel too much. Instead, he frowned and said, "But if that's the case, doesn't it mean that he is confident that he can definitely destroy the Dragon Equipment Pavilion?

So why haven't you done anything yet?"

"This is why I came here tonight! I want to see what Ji Qiu is up to!" Wang Yue said in a deep voice.

……

"Playing tricks? I'm not playing tricks at all. I'm just doing some preparatory work!"

In a residential building a kilometer away from Longqi Pavilion, Ji Qiu seemed to have heard the conversation between Wang Yue and Shi A, and couldn't help but chuckle.

And he did hear the conversation between Wang Yue and Shi A, because he installed a bug on the top floor of Wangyue Building.

Ji Qiu didn't know whether Wang Yue and Shi A would appear in Wangyue Tower tonight.

But that is the best place in Luoyang City to observe the situation in the Dragon Equipment Pavilion. If they want to find a place to observe the Dragon Equipment Pavilion, this is it!
Just as Wang Yue said, in fact, as early as the moment Shi A appeared, Ji Qiu thought that there must be something complicated behind this.

At that time, he didn't know that the mastermind behind this was Wang Yue.

But after understanding the relationship between the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the Sili Xiaowei Mansion, as well as the current general political structure of Luoyang City, he has basically understood the other party's purpose.

After understanding the other party's purpose, the next step is to consider how to gain the greatest benefit for yourself.
