Evil Spirit Master Mission Begins, Dai Yueheng and Tang Qi Mess Up

Qian Chaoyun sat down. Seeing Xu Jiujiu's helpless expression, he did not continue talking with her about the Evil Spirit Masters.

A nation was difficult to truly control.

Even Shrek had rats lurking in the gutters. For instance, he had been ambushed in Shrek City, supposedly the safest place on the entire continent.

Something like that should have been impossible, yet it had happened.

Dai Huabin's matter had presumably been investigated by now. Once he returned to the Academy, it would most likely be dealt with quietly.

At that moment, Xu Jiujiu said, "I've notified a Titled Douluo from the Star Luo Hall of Worship. If anything goes wrong, he'll assist us immediately."

"Won't that expose us? Don't you Star Luo people have an insider?" Ling Luochen asked worriedly.

Xu Jiujiu looked at Ling Luochen and smiled. "It won't be exposed, but I can't explain any more than that. It concerns Star Luo's secrets."

Ling Luochen clicked her tongue and turned away.

If Xu Jiujiu did not want to tell her, she did not want to ask anyway.

A Princess who did not properly study what she ought to study, always thinking about other things—she did not look like a good woman at all.

Qian Chaoyun ate grapes as he watched the two women bicker.

It was actually quite interesting.

He could now understand why emperors did not stop palace infighting.

When handling state affairs gave them a headache, they could go to the harem and watch an episode of Empresses in the Palace to unwind.

Wasn't that exactly what he was experiencing now?

Xu Jiujiu truly was a Princess in every sense of the word.

Afterward, the two women each busied themselves with their own matters.

By nightfall, undercurrents had begun stirring through Mingdu's Underground Market. The atmosphere had clearly changed.

At that moment, a waiter knocked on the door and said, "Mr. Bule, Lord Zhong Liyun of the Bright Moon Chamber of Commerce requests your presence. The banquet has already begun."

"I understand."

Qian Chaoyun let out a lecherous-sounding voice, imitating Bule's manner of speaking.

Zhong Liyun was the Evil Spirit Master Qian Chaoyun had encountered in the Underground Market. He possessed a snake-type Martial Soul and enjoyed eating human flesh and blood.

The two had reached an agreement. Qian Chaoyun would give Ling Luochen to Zhong Liyun as a sexual partner, while Zhong Liyun would bring him into the organization.

The other party was a Four Rings Soul Ancestor and held some standing within this group.

At the same time, Xu Jiujiu and Ling Luochen had finished disguising themselves. They followed Qian Chaoyun out of the hotel and headed for the Bright Moon Chamber of Commerce.

The moment they left the room, a waiter came to lead the way.

Qian Chaoyun gave a sinister chuckle and tossed out a Gold Soul Coin. "This is your reward. Lead me properly, and you won't be lacking in benefits."

"This lowly one will serve Mr. Bule unto death!"

The waiter was overjoyed. He hurriedly bowed and scraped, then walked ahead to lead Lord Bule onward.

Qian Chaoyun gave a lecherous laugh, wrapped an arm around each woman, and followed closely behind.

The two women's cheeks flushed under his embrace, and for a moment, neither was used to it.

Ling Luochen lowered her head, silently grumbling inwardly.

Qian Chaoyun's lecherous personality doesn't seem like an act at all. It feels more like something passed down from the previous generation. Even the way he holds someone by the waist is so practiced.

Sure enough, to kill Evil Spirit Masters, this guy can do anything. Ugh, that lecher Bule...

Xu Jiujiu, meanwhile, blinked her alluring eyes and linked arms with Qian Chaoyun.

This guy stays calm in a crisis. He's so manly. Aside from hating evil like an enemy, his personality is perfect for women of the imperial family. No... no matter what, I have to recruit him into the Star Luo Empire someday.

The two women exchanged a glance, gave a delicate snort, and turned away.

Before long, the waiter led Lord Bule to the Bright Moon Chamber of Commerce. Two Four Rings powerhouses stood guard at the entrance.

The moment Qian Chaoyun arrived, the Four Rings guards at the door let him pass.

As soon as the three entered, they found dozens of gazes sweeping over them. The leader among them was unexpectedly a Soul Douluo Evil Spirit Master, followed by two Soul Kings and one Soul Emperor.

These people were gathered within a massive exhibition hall, staring at Qian Chaoyun with the gaze of their own kind.

Qian Chaoyun was slightly surprised inwardly. This was quite the lineup.

There was actually a Rank 8 powerhouse.

It seemed they had truly come across a major deal this time.

At that moment, a gloomy, sleazy-looking man resembling a goblin approached and said to Qian Chaoyun, "Brother Bule, you've finally arrived."

Qian Chaoyun chuckled. "Brother Zhong, sorry to keep you waiting."

As he spoke, Qian Chaoyun pushed Ling Luochen toward Zhong Liyun, who let out a lecherous chuckle.

Ling Luochen pretended to object and said pitifully, "Elder Brother... don't you want me anymore?"

Qian Chaoyun said blandly, "Follow Brother Zhong, and you'll live better in the future. Elder Brother is simply loving you in a different way."

At those words, Ling Luochen began sobbing.

Her acting was not the least bit inferior to Xu Jiujiu's.

Seeing the beauty cry, Zhong Liyun's simp-like sympathy immediately overflowed, and he hurriedly soothed her.

Women were made of water. Cry too much, and they would no longer look pretty.

Such a stunning beauty would run out of water if she cried too much. The sight made his heart ache.

Xu Jiujiu silently gave Ling Luochen a thumbs-up.

She's so good at this!

Qian Chaoyun had not expected that his usually quiet Senior Sister would cooperate so perfectly. She truly was his excellent partner.

At that moment, Zhong Liyun had calmed the beauty down. Seeing how sensible Bule was, he began introducing him to the others.

"Brother Bule, the one seated in the middle is Lord Gao, our superior. From now on, we'll all be working under him."

"Bule greets Lord Gao."

"Brother Bule, this is Elder Zhou, the renowned Soul Emperor."

"Greetings, Elder Zhou."

"..."

Before long, once everyone had been introduced, Bule officially joined the group as an Evil Spirit Master.

Lord Gao verified the Undead Evil Martial Soul Bule had disguised himself with, and only then did Qian Chaoyun successfully pass the test.

Xu Jiujiu and Ling Luochen also passed without incident.

At that moment, Lord Gao, seated in the middle, snorted coldly and slammed his palm against the table. "You bunch of useless fools! Information leaked this time, and I nearly fell into a trap."

Elder Zhou, a six-ringed Soul Emperor, asked, "My lord, what happened?"

Lord Gao swept a glance over the crowd and shouted to his subordinate, "Bring them up and let these people see for themselves."

At those words, quite a few of the Evil Spirit Masters present became interested.

Qian Chaoyun narrowed his eyes, feeling that something was wrong.

Could it be that they found out about our operation?

Yet the next moment, several Evil Spirit Master subordinates brought in two people wearing restraints that blocked both Spiritual Power and vision.

Qian Chaoyun's heart skipped a beat.

Were those not Dai Yueheng and Tang Qi?

How had those two been captured?

Logically speaking, they should not have been that stupid. How had they ended up in the hands of Evil Spirit Masters?

They had truly failed to steal a chicken and lost the rice besides, increasing the difficulty of his mission.

With that in mind, Qian Chaoyun shot Xu Jiujiu a look, signaling her not to do anything rash.

There was a Rank 8, a six-ringed powerhouse, and two five-ringed powerhouses here. The rest were all three- and four-ringed experts.

If they truly started fighting, they would be finished here as well.

They would wait for Star Luo's reinforcements to arrive, then see whether they could save them. If that did not work, they could only return to Shrek and call for help.

At that moment, all the Evil Spirit Masters looked over.

Elder Zhou was utterly astonished. When he clearly saw the Inspection Group identity badges on the pair, he shuddered in fright.

They were actually members of Shrek's Inspection Group.

Zhong Liyun said in surprise, "Elder Gao, what is going on..."
