Chapter 126 Commander Xue, I Want to Join the Martial Inspectorate
Su Wen’s shout shocked not only Wu Lie but also Murong Yan.
Even the pedestrians turned to look at Su Wen.
They only saw him open his arms and rush towards Wu Lie.
In an instant, he appeared in front of Wu Lie and grabbed him in a bear hug!
He looked like an old friend that he had not seen for a long time.
Wu Lie’s eyes widened. He had no idea what Su Wen was up to.
Just as he was about to struggle, Su Wen whispered into his ear, “Don’t call me Su Wen, call me Su Daqiang. I’ve already infiltrated the sect that His Majesty ordered us to exterminate. We can’t let them see any flaws, or else we won’t be able to leave Yong County!”
Wu Lie immediately turned nervous!
He had never experienced something like this before!
At this moment, Su Wen pushed him away and laughed. “I didn’t expect to see you here, Ah Lie!”
Wu Lie also laughed along. “Hehe, that’s right, Daqiang! Long time no see!” He did not dare to say anything for fear of exposing any flaws!
At this moment, Murong Yan walked over and asked with a smile, “Brother Qiang, this is?”
Su Wen turned around and said with a smile, “Sister Yan, this is a good friend of mine in the capital. His father is also a pimp from the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, and both our fathers are close to each other. However, he came out to travel a few years ago and we haven’t seen each other for a few years.”
Su Wen had already arranged Wu Lie’s background in his words. This sentence of his was spoken to inform both Murong Yan and Wu Lie.
Wu Lie: “???”
However, he was, after all, someone who led troops to war, so he wasn’t stupid. He nodded and smiled. “Daqiang, why are you here? Who is this?”
Su Wen said, “I came out to travel around as well, and have joined the Moon Worship Sect! The sect master of the sacred cult is amiable and there are many brothers in the sect. This is my senior sister, Murong Yan. It’s been many years since we last met. Why don’t we have a few drinks first?”
After he finished speaking, he turned to Murong Yan and said in a low voice, “Big Sister Yan, you guys go and buy some things first. I’ll see if I can pull him into the sect. This brat’s martial arts aren’t bad!”
Murong Yan’s eyes were full of smiles.
That’s right, who could resist the temptation of pulling people into the Sect? Su Wen was her immediate subordinate, so she would also be rewarded if he could get someone in.
“Brother Qiang, go ahead.” After all, Su Wen had already consumed the Holy Spirit Pill, so Murong Yan was still assured of him. No one would joke around with their lives.
When Su Wen saw Murong Yan leave with her men, he turned around and sneered at Wu Lie. “You’re ruining my plans! Didn’t you say you were going to quell the rebellion with your father? Why are you here alone?”
How could Wu Lie say that quelling the rebellion was just a matter of gaining credit? Wasn’t that slapping himself in the face? Instead of answering, he asked, “Don’t worry about that. How did you get here? Aren’t you in the capital?” Su Wen did not hide anything and immediately told him the whole story. However, he also hid the fact that he was lost.
Who wouldn’t want to keep their pride?
With a proud expression, he said, “In order to help the Martial Inspectorate figure out the enemy’s situation and take control of the layout, I infiltrated the Moon Worship Sect. However, because the power of Moon Worship Sect is great and I have yet to figure out the location of its main shrine, I will have to stay for a while longer. If you have nothing to do, hurry up and leave.
Go to Jiashan County and tell Xue Wanjun that there are far too many experts in the Moon Worship Sect. The Cult Master is already a 7th Grade Earth Rank cultivator, and they are at least twelve experts at Earth Rank within the sect, with an uncountable number of Star Rank experts. Furthermore, the Cult Master has already set up a fake main shrine, so they must not fall for it.”
“In addition, the officials in the Li Prefecture are muddling together with the Sects in some ways, and the movements of the Martial Inspectorate have already been known by these sects. I suggest that all members of the Martial Inspectorate cut off contact with the local authorities!”
Although Wu Lie’s arrival was unexpected, it also gave Su Wen a chance!
A chance to send a message to the outside world!
Although Su Wen and Wu Lie were not on good terms, he still believed in Wu Lie’s character.
When Wu Lie heard Su Wen’s words, his blood boiled!
Now THIS was what he called a real challenge!
What rubbish military achievements? It would be embarrassing enough to beat up some commoners.
“Bring me along. I want to join the Moon Worship Sect as well and go undercover with you!” Wu Lie said excitedly. “Didn’t you just tell that woman that you wanted to pull me into the sect? I’ll go back with you in a while!”
God basically gave him ears for nothing. He only heard what he wanted to hear.
Su Wen looked at Wu Lie as if he was looking at a fool. “Are you mentally ill? Didn’t I make myself clear just now? After you swallow the Holy Spirit Pill, your life and death will fall under the Sect Master’s control!”
Wu Lie said indignantly, “You aren’t afraid of death, so why would I?”
Su Wen sighed and said, “Come, then tell me. If we both join them as spies here, then who will deliver the news?”
“Um…”
Wu Lie was speechless. “Alright! I’ll send the message now!” Wu Lie did not even bother to buy any food, immediately getting on his horse and leaving.
Su Wen heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Wu Lie’s arrival was a good opportunity for him to spread the news. Otherwise, Su Wen could only continue hiding and wait for an opportunity.
He suddenly understood why Martial Inspectorate was independent of the royal court. It was because if a local official could command the Martial Inspectorate, that would only serve to make them even more unbridled!
Seeing Wu Lie leave, Su Wen went back to the sect.
Upon seeing Murong Yan, he said with a face full of regret, “This brat said he had urgent matters to attend to and insisted on leaving. He didn’t give me a chance to recruit him!”
Murong Yan comforted him, “It’s fine. No one can guarantee success in this kind of thing. Just work hard next time. However, I suggest you think of a way to directly bring him back to the hall. This way, it’ll be safer.” Su Wen naturally understood what she meant. To put it simply, she was trying to trick him into joining the sect instead.
He agreed with a smile.
Wu Lie also went all out. His horse was a good breed in the first place, so he arrived at Jiashan City after a day and night had passed. After entering, he went straight to the relay station! Xue Wanjun and Ruan Ze were surprised when they heard that Wu Lie had arrived!
Xue Wanjun looked at Ruan Ze and said in puzzlement, “Wu Lie is Wu Kunhu’s son. Why is he looking for us? Our Martial Inspectorate has never interacted with the military.”
Ruan Ze shook his head in response. “Let him come in first!”
Wu Lie entered and saw the two of them. He said in a deep voice, “Commander Xue, I was entrusted by Su Wen to deliver this piece of news!”
Xue Wanjun suddenly stood up and asked with widened eyes, “Su Wen? Where is he?!”
“He has already infiltrated the Moon Worship Sect!” Wu Lie said. “He wants me to tell you that the sect is extremely powerful and has countless experts. The sect master already has a cultivation of 7th Grade Earth Rank, and there are already 12 experts of Earth Rank within the sect as well. There are too many of the Star Ranks to count, and the sect master has even laid down a fake shrine hall, so you absolutely cannot fall for it.
In addition, the stance of the officials of Li Prefecture towards the Sects are unclear. The Martial Inspectorate’s movements have already been known by these sects, so he suggests that all members of the Martial Inspectorate cut off all contact with the local authorities!”
Xue Wanjun’s brows immediately knit together when he heard this news! He said in a low voice, “How is that possible? In the intelligence report, the Moon Worship Sect doesn’t have so many experts! There are actually 12 Earth Rank experts?”.
Ruan Ze said, “I think Su Wen’s information is more credible. After all, he has already infiltrated the enemy’s ranks. This also explains why the other teams have so little information. It’s because our every move has been known by them! How can we eliminate them in this way?”
He pondered for a moment before saying, “However, it is indeed necessary to cut off contact with the local authorities. Otherwise, it would be too uncomfortable if our every move is under their watch.”
Then he turned to Wu Lie and said, “General Wu, thank you for sending this message. Please rest.” “No!” Wu Lie refused Ruan Ze’s suggestion and turned to look at Xue Wanjun. “Commander Xue, I want to join the Martial Inspectorate as well and annihilate these martial sects with all of you!” Xue Wanjun’s eyes widened, and then he shook his head. “Don’t! General Wu, you’re one of the generals appointed by His Majesty to quell the rebellion. How can you join the Martial Inspectorate when the chaos hasn’t been eliminated yet?”
In reality, the most important thing was that in Xue Wanjun’s opinion, Su Wen coming in was already uncomfortable enough. What would happen if Wu Lie came in? If anything happened to this kind of young master, wouldn’t Wu Kunhu lop off his head as punishment?
