"Wait a minute, are you two fairies in any trouble?"

"If Zhao can help, I will not refuse. But please don't mention the mistress."

Of course, he couldn't help for free, there must be conditions. He wanted Yunyan Pavilion to help him, and this was not something that could be achieved overnight.

This is an opportunity, and he will definitely not miss it.

But it’s better not to think about taking Gu Qingyun as your mistress.

However, the woman had an almost stubborn persistence.

Gu Qingyun looked so aggrieved that she was about to cry, her eyes filled with mist. "My benefactor, are you looking down on me? Look at my mother, she's also a beautiful lady. If you don't mind, we can serve you together."

Chapter 384 She is anxious

Wow, these two women are really willing to risk it all just to hug his big, thick legs.

When Gu Qingyun proposed to serve him together, Gu Qingyan didn't say anything. It was obvious that they had discussed it in advance.

Even the mother-daughter bowl is here, but you are clearly sisters’ bowl, yet you pretend to be mother and daughter.

This is an attempt to defraud, how could Mr. Zhao be fooled?

Nonsence!

Mr. Zhao is not interested in you. What I want is the intelligence capabilities of the Yunyan Pavilion behind you.

Wait, if we capture this pair of sisters, wouldn’t it be a good opportunity to use them as a springboard to take over Yunyan Pavilion?

Here we must explain the current situation of Yunyan Pavilion.

Although it was the Gu family who founded the Demon-Exorcism Society, the predecessor of Yunyan Pavilion.

But as times changed, the Gu family declined.

It was mentioned before that the Gu family had an ancestor in the Mahayana period, but that is now a thing of the past.

The ancestor had actually died over two hundred years ago due to exhaustion of his lifespan, but Yunyan Pavilion had concealed this fact from the outside world.

But the death of the ancestor marked the beginning of the decline of Yunyan Pavilion.

During the Demon-Exorcist Society period, they devoted themselves to the cause of exorcising demons and defending the Way, but there is no immortal in the demon-exorcist cause.

It should be said that the casualties were extremely heavy. It often took a lot of lives to clear out a remaining demon stronghold.

Therefore, it is impossible that the Demon-Exorcism Society consists only of the descendants of the Gu family and their disciples Gu Jinqiu.

In order to replenish fresh blood, they adopted many orphans and trained them rigorously to become new members.

Countless members of the Demon-Slaying Society died in battle, and new ones were replaced, and the tradition was passed down from generation to generation.

However, the rapid replacement of the old with the new has also caused some problems.

Before the coach in charge of training the new recruits could remember everyone's name, a new batch of recruits had already been replaced.

The old soldiers are experienced and know more survival skills. Many old soldiers look down on the new recruits, and some of them bully the new recruits.

At the beginning, the Demon Exorcists would care about the character development of the orphans they adopted, but people died too quickly, and their superiors felt that there was no need to waste their teachers' time on character development.

This also led to the gradual infiltration of some people of bad character into the Demon Exorcism Society.

This laid the groundwork for the subsequent civil unrest in Yunyan Pavilion.

The rise of the Demon Exorcist Society was a necessity of the times, as demons still roamed the human land.

But these demons will be killed sooner or later. If there are no demons left in the human territory, will the world no longer need the Demon Extermination Society?

When that day finally arrived, the internal and external troubles of the Demon Exorcist Society finally overwhelmed the organization.

It was not a coincidence that many forces united to besiege the Demon-Extermination Society back then, but an inevitable trend.

The world no longer needs the Exorcist Society, so it withdrew from the stage of history.

But its fallen remains transformed into a new organization - Yunyan Pavilion.

There may have been some bad apples or parasites in the exorcism association in the past, but under the strict rules, no one dared to be too presumptuous.

But during the Yunyan Pavilion period, as an intelligence organization, they no longer had many rules and regulations.

As long as they can afford it, they will investigate intelligence for anyone. To obtain certain intelligence, they will resort to any means necessary, and some shady tactics are unavoidable.

But in such a large organization, there is no guarantee that there will be different ideas.

The Gu sisters' father was a man with a bottom line, and believed that some things that went against conscience should not be done.

He is too rigid, which hinders some people from making money.

So those who were dissatisfied with him united to oust the couple from power and even killed them.

The rebel succeeded in usurping the throne, but the old men in Yunyan Pavilion refused to obey the usurper and were only willing to obey the orthodox descendants of the Gu family.

So Yunyan Pavilion was handed over to the sisters, but the new head of the family would still interfere in the affairs of Yunyan Pavilion from time to time.

Many people who were originally loyal to their parents were squeezed out of Yunyan Pavilion.

However, the new head of the family was unsuccessful in placing his own people, and was also resisted by the two sisters.

This also led to a shortage of staff in Yunyan Pavilion, a lack of successors, and it was almost a mess.

Later, the outside forces bribed the new head of the family and wanted to sell Yunyan Pavilion at a low price. The new head of the family was unable to completely control Yunyan Pavilion, and did not want to keep a tiger as a threat, so he colluded with outsiders.

This is naturally not what the two sisters want to see.

Zhao Kangping originally wanted to help them solve their problems and then make them owe him a favor in order to win over Yunyan Pavilion.

But if we can take them down, we'll be done with it once and for all.

Although it is exciting for sisters to do this kind of thing together, he also has his own bottom line.

He is not a particularly promiscuous person, and he even has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. He still hopes that girls will choose him out of love rather than profit.

This pair of sisters has a strong purpose. They must be thinking of getting close to him for some plan of their own. There is no sincerity in it.

He didn't want a combination of interests that was mixed up from the very beginning.

If their interests conflict one day, how will they choose?

As long as there are trade-offs, someone will always have to give in, and someone will always feel uncomfortable because of giving in.

He didn't want to do that, so it was better for him to refuse from the beginning.

"No, no, no, I appreciate the kindness of the two fairies."

"I think we might as well talk about how we can collaborate."

"It doesn't necessarily have to be about matters between men and women."

"Zhao can see that you must have something to ask for."

He knew very well that these two women were looking for a backer.

They have long wanted to regain power, but they are too weak to do so.

The forced marriage by the Li family became the fuse. In the original novel, they asked Luo Xueqing to kill Li Youlin, eliminating the external threat. Only then could they devote all their energy to dealing with the enemies within the Gu family.

The story does not go into detail about how the sisters defeated their enemies.

But it did mention that they introduced foreign aid.

The headquarters of Yunyan Pavilion is located in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it just so happens that one of the protagonists is Princess Zhou Liu.

Ji Miaoyan's maternal family, the Zhang family, is also a prestigious military family in the Great Zhou. With the help of the Zhang family, the Gu sisters were able to regain power.

In exchange, Yunyan Pavilion later began to rely on Princess Zhou Liu, providing intelligence assistance for her future as the empress.

However, this is a hidden thread in the story, and you need to connect it with the context to notice it. If you are a reader who jumps around, it is probably easy to miss these details.

Having said that, Gu Qingyun realized that this man did not think with his lower body, so she had to change her strategy adaptively.

"Fellow Daoist, it seems I was too rude." Gu Qingyun put away her tenderness and changed the address from benefactor to fellow Daoist, and her tone became serious.

She then briefly explained the dilemma they faced.

Perhaps their grandfather adopted some orphans out of kindness and trained them to work for him.

There were a few who were outstanding and performed very well, so their grandfather gave them the surname Gu.

My grandfather wanted to increase their sense of belonging to the Gu family in this way.

But what we got in return was these people taking over our position.

All they have to do is take back what originally belonged to them.

"Wait a minute, why don't they just kill you? Wouldn't they be able to completely control the Gu family then?" Zhao Kangping expressed his doubts.

In fact, he himself had some guesses, but they were not verified.

Madam Yan explained this point: "Some things in the family can only be unlocked by those with pure Gu family blood, and quite a few people in Yunyan Pavilion are still loyal to the Gu family."

"If they do this, I'm afraid the only outcome will be a lose-lose situation."

That's why they maintain a situation where they fight but don't break.

"But they are tired of fighting us and are ready to overturn the table."

"Since they can't make any profit from Yunyan Pavilion, they plan to sell Yunyan Pavilion and us to outsiders." Gu Qingyun continued her sister's topic.

The headquarters of Yunyan Pavilion is located in the Great Zhou, and they did think about finding a backer in the Great Zhou.

But there was a problem. If the backer they found in the Great Zhou was too close to the Yunyan Pavilion headquarters, it would be easy for this backer to completely control the Yunyan Pavilion. At that time, the sisters would likely have their own destinies controlled by others.

However, the Zi Yang Holy Land is in the Eastern Region. Even if they find them as a backer, they are so far away from here that their constraints on them will be relatively small, and they may even be able to maintain a certain degree of independence.

"Fellow Daoist, I was a little bit out of control earlier."

"Becoming a Taoist couple requires mutual consent."

"If you do have your own difficulties, we won't force you."

"But we can indeed talk about cooperation." Gu Qingyun didn't necessarily want to become his Taoist partner.

Her purpose was indeed to use him, but he didn't seem to be easily fooled.

Zhao Kangping's eyes turned serious: "Then how do you want to cooperate?"

They talked for a long time but didn't even mention giving him a thank-you gift.

His heart sank, and he thought it might be gone again.

When Luo Xueqing was going through this plot, she went to capture Ji Ningyu in person.

But Zhao Kangping only provided intelligence, and their people took action on their own.

Perhaps because they didn't have to do the hard work themselves, they didn't plan to give him any gifts as a thank you and only expressed their gratitude verbally.

As for what the woman said about promising herself to you and treating herself as a gift, just listen to it.

He is most likely a bait. After he is hooked, he will be asked to do this and that.

It reminded him of a trash picking game in his previous life.

General, the toilet in Shisongzhuang is clogged again...

They simply replaced the general with a benefactor, and then wanted to trick Zhao into being their tool at a very low cost.

Hehe, do you think Mr. Zhao can’t see through this little trick?

"Those who have usurped our rightful place have already contacted a buyer and are preparing to sell us and Yunyan Pavilion."

"They're already here, waiting outside. They're all demonic cultivators, and we don't want anything to do with them."

"Could you help us get rid of them?"

Of course, Gu Qingyun was talking about those people from the Li family.

Here it comes, I’ve already started to trick him.

As long as he killed that group of demon cultivators, he would have no choice but to board their pirate ship.

The woman wanted to use her weak appearance to lure him into being her tool.

Gu Qingyun is not tall, about 1.5 meters, and looks frail, but she has a pretty good figure.

Her delicate baby face, if she shows a little bit of grievance, will probably make a weak-minded man want to protect her and want to seek justice for her.

The petite girl added, "If you can help us deal with these people, we will definitely repay you generously."
