Chapter 375: What Should We Do!
“Golden Horse Knights Hall is fully pursuing Chu King of Hell, hahaha…” As soon as this matter was mentioned, Iron Dragon City spoke cheerfully, “It’s said that Fifth Qingrou’s treasure vault was stolen by Chu King of Hell, resulting in heavy losses. Fifth Qingrou is furious and has ordered everyone in the Golden Horse Knights Hall to take action, even cooperating with various official troops to capture this Chu King of Hell…”
At this point, he laughed heartily again, joyfully saying, “Chu King of Hell is clearly sitting comfortably right here with us. Isn’t Fifth Qingrou blinded by pig oil?”
The statement caused Tie Butian to shudder, his expression changing instantly.
Beside him, Wu Qianqian clenched her fists tightly.
However, the officers and strategists nearby burst into laughter, seemingly hearing a huge joke, unable to contain their amusement.
During this time, under Chu Yang’s influence, Wu Qianqian’s progress was evident. Whether it was military tactics, politics, or schemes, Chu Yang had stuffed knowledge into Wu Qianqian’s head in a vigorous manner and then taught her through practice. After she took shape, Chu Yang left for Great Zhao.
Thus, all remaining matters were left for Wu Qianqian to complete.
Wu Qianqian truly implemented Chu Yang’s policies while integrating her delicate and subtle feminine qualities, making her actions appear even more seamless.
Not only did the Butian Pavilion increasingly admire her, but even Tie Butian genuinely believed that Wu Qianqian now was no less capable than the original Chu Yang.
Since arriving in the southern border, Tie Butian managed the overall situation while Iron Dragon City focused on the army; all tasks of identifying traitors were independently led by Wu Qianqian and the Butian Pavilion. The ingenuity of her strategies, the precision of her calculations, and her ruthless efficiency left even the seasoned veterans of Iron Dragon City in awe. They truly acknowledged the current soaring status of this Chu King of Hell.
There was not a shred of doubt regarding the identity of this Chu King of Hell.
Now, hearing that Fifth Qingrou was actually conducting a nationwide manhunt for Chu King of Hell, Iron Dragon City nearly laughed himself to death…
For Iron Dragon City, since the real Chu King of Hell was right beside him, then Fifth Qingrou must have been severely played.
This was fantastic news for him. Iron Dragon City’s mood, filled with delightful schadenfreude, could hardly be described…
After all, this was Fifth Qingrou; who could deceive him like this?
“Your Majesty, what are your thoughts on this matter?” Iron Dragon City eagerly asked Wu Qianqian, a playful smile still on his face.
“Well… it’s hard to say.” Wu Qianqian replied somewhat distractedly, her heart filled with worry for Chu Yang…
During this period, every time there was free time, Iron Dragon City was keen on chatting with her, threatening her numerous times that she must fulfill her earlier promises…
Heaven knows what promise Chu Yang had made to him at that time?
So, Wu Qianqian had always been noncommittal, brushing it off. But the more she brushed it off, the more excited Iron Dragon City became, eventually hinting that apparently, Chu Yang had promised to give him a divine weapon?
Others might not know about Chu Yang, but how could Wu Qianqian be unaware? Chu Yang was a person who wouldn’t act without clear evidence; if he had promised to give Iron Dragon City a divine weapon back then, Wu Qianqian would be the first to not believe it!
Thus, she denied it vehemently, causing Iron Dragon City to become angry; but Chu King of Hell was not someone to be trifled with. Wu Qianqian's displayed assertiveness left Iron Dragon City speechless and helpless, causing him to overturn tables in frustration while drinking countless times.
But Wu Qianqian would not yield an inch.
During this time, the two had directly become adversaries.
However, Wu Qianqian's assertiveness had inadvertently established her absolute authority among the military leaders! This was Iron Dragon City!
