Chapter 696 Ye the Fox Who Recommended Himself
"Achoo!"
Ye Nanxiao rubbed his nose, and before the itching sensation in his nose subsided, he sneezed again.
"Hey kid, don't you need to replenish your energy? This time I'm using my soul power to carry you through the air, so don't bring up the excuse that you caught a chill from the wind before. Besides, you're originally an extreme form of ice." Elder Xuan gave Ye Nanxiao a disdainful look and handed him his wine flask.
"Who says sneezing means you've caught a cold?" Ye Nanxiao took the wine pot, shook it, and tossed it back to Elder Xuan. He had finished all the wine inside and thought the old drunkard was just trying to warm him up with a couple of sips.
"I told you to fill the wine jug!" Elder Xuan slapped Ye Nanxiao on the head.
"You old drunkard! Drinking is free!"
"Chicken leg bone as payment for the debt? Want it?"
The members of the inspection team glanced at the old man and the young man fighting, silently mimicking a swimming motion and moving back a little.
"Luo Luo, what do you think of my previous suggestion?" Ma Xiaotao leaned lazily against Ling Luochen. She was a little taller than Ling Luochen, and her hands naturally rested on Ling Luochen's waist, her chin resting on Ling Luochen's shoulder.
Ling Luochen's expression was cold, her eyes fixed ahead, ignoring Ma Xiaotao's words. Only the two blushes on her cheeks betrayed her inner thoughts.
"You heard me, pay attention to me!" Ma Xiaotao breathed a warm breath close to Ling Luochen's slightly red earlobe.
Ling Luochen shuddered, then disgustedly pushed away Ma Xiaotao's face that was leaning towards him. "Go away, don't bother me."
Pushed away, Ma Xiaotao moved to the other side and came closer again, "Hey! Little girl, we've been friends for so many years, don't you think I know what you're thinking?"
"With you by my side, Nan Nan will probably have a lot of headaches." Ling Luo Chen suddenly reached out from his chest and quickly grabbed Ma Xiao Tao's face, pulling it outward.
"Ouch! My face is going to fall apart!"
"Tell me, what wicked plan are you plotting?" Ling Luochen asked, supporting Ma Xiaotao.
"Your aura is different now. Xiaoxiaozi said you've broken through a realm and are now of the Ultimate Ice attribute, right?" Ma Xiaotao asked, rubbing her face.
Ling Luochen glanced at her, then kept his gaze on the figure at the front, nodded slightly, and said, "Junior Brother Nanxiao helped me break through the Frost Realm and also gave me a great gift."
"A big gift? What big gift? Is it the one I'm thinking of?" A single hair stood up on Ma Xiaotao's head.
A gift? Is it one of those that Xiaoxiaozi often gives her?
"You'll find out in time. Until then, I'll find a way to repay Junior Brother Nanxiao's kindness," Ling Luochen said, a gentle look appearing in his eyes.
Ma Xiaotao rubbed her flushed cheeks and put her arm around Ling Luochen. "Repaying? Do you have a plan? How about I give you some advice? What's that saying again? 'If I have nothing to repay you with, I'll offer myself.'"
Ling Luochen instantly reached out and covered Ma Xiaotao's messy little mouth, a look of panic flashing across his face.
Ma Xiaotao witnessed this brief change.
"Just as I suspected! You little sly fox, you were always thinking about doing naughty things!"
"Shut up!"
Ling Luochen discreetly scanned her surroundings, and after confirming that the other members of the monitoring team were not paying attention to her situation, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
"You call me a repressed pervert! You silly girl, you're the most repressed pervert! Who was the one who offered herself up in the first place!" Ling Luochen glared at Ma Xiaotao.
Ma Xiaotao shrugged it off, "So what? I still managed to get a man."
"You!" Ling Luochen was speechless for a moment, and then his face darkened.
If she had been that brave back then, would things be different now?
"Don't be like that! If you really like it, then it's up to you. At most, I'll give you a back door, but don't say I'm disregarding our years of sisterhood!" Ma Xiaotao hugged Ling Luochen again and rubbed her face against Ling Luochen's cool cheek.
"Why would you have this idea? Normal people would think of hiding their treasures, right?" Ling Luochen didn't resist and let Ma Xiaotao lean against him.
"You think it's that easy to have children and grandchildren?"
"Besides, our cultivation levels are not low," Ma Xiaotao said meaningfully.
Ling Luochen was slightly taken aback, but quickly understood what Ma Xiaotao meant.
The higher one's cultivation level, the rarer it is to have offspring.
Cast a wide net and catch plenty of fish.
"Nannan will be driven crazy by you," Ling Luochen whispered.
"No, that's what she suggested."
"Huh?"
Mingdou Mountain Range, White Tiger Camp.
When everyone landed, Duke White Tiger, who had received the news, was already waiting there.
"Greetings, Elder Yuan and Elder Xuan!" Duke White Tiger pounded his chest with his left hand and bowed to Shattered Star Douluo and Elder Xuan.
Shattered Star Douluo nodded and said, "No need for formalities. We are here to investigate the attack on the Empire and have followed the clues."
Duke White Tiger knelt on one knee, head bowed, and said, "It was Dai Hao's negligence in supervision! Please punish him, Elder Yuan!"
Shattered Star Douluo waved his hand, helping Dai Hao up from a distance. "This matter cannot be entirely blamed on you. Your contributions to the empire are evident to all. The most urgent task is to find out how those evil soul masters bypassed our army's defenses and even infiltrated Star Luo City!"
"Dai Hao will do his best!" Duke Baihu nodded emphatically.
"Elder Xuan, please!" Shattered Star Douluo nodded to Elder Xuan.
Elder Xuan turned to look at Ye Nanxiao, who immediately stepped forward.
"Your Excellency Duke White Tiger, it's been a long time. Do you still remember me?" Ye Nanxiao asked with a smile.
"Of course! Speaking of which, I've been able to enjoy a relatively peaceful life like this thanks to your soul tool!"
Dai Hao laughed heartily, and after catching a glimpse of Shattered Star Douluo nodding slightly out of the corner of his eye, he said, "Please follow me."
The group followed Dai Hao as they infiltrated the mountains and forests, eventually reaching the base hidden within them.
"How about it, Brother Nanxiao? The scenery here is quite nice, isn't it?" Dai Hao waved his hand, breaking through the waterfall blocking the front of the base and revealing a road.
"Was that camp we saw last time on another mountain ahead?" Ye Nanxiao reached out and caught a handful of spring water, feeling its coolness and the subtle flow of soul power within it.
"Yes, but influenced by your theory of covert operations, I split up the military camp, one of which is hidden in this mountain. Our early warning system is buried in the waterfall, and there is a secret passage behind this mountain that connects to all directions." Dai Hao released a burst of soul power and struck a certain spot in the cave.
A faint mechanical sound rang out, and Dai Hao then gestured for Ye Nanxiao to accompany him.
Ye Nanxiao glanced at it and roughly understood what kind of mechanisms were set up in the cave.
The latest novel is first published here!
We arrived at a stone chamber, which contained only a few small stools and a large stone slab used as a table, on which was a sand table.
"It's rather simple, please forgive me!" Duke White Tiger waved and called someone over to bring some chairs.
The Shrek Supervisory Team wasn't exactly pampered; Chen Zifeng and the others patted the ground and sat down cross-legged.
"Gentlemen, on the other side of the Mingdou Mountains, several forces have emerged. The most active of these is the unknown force that attacked our army. This force is mostly composed of evil spirit masters and possesses the bizarre ability to control corpses!" Duke White Tiger pointed to the sand table and spoke of the intelligence he had gathered so far.
"Just as we were about to enter the other side of the mountain to gather more intelligence, the Sun Moon Empire deployed three legions here and issued a warning to our army, forbidding us from crossing the border." As Duke White Tiger spoke, his expression gradually darkened.
"Does stopping the search indicate that the Sun Moon Empire is colluding with the evil soul masters?" Chen Zifeng asked.
Dai Hao shook his head slightly. "I witnessed it with my own eyes. That group of evil soul masters attacked the Sun Moon Empire's garrison. A battle broke out between the two sides, and the evil soul masters killed many soldiers and turned them into zombies!"
"It might be a ruse, but that garrison is completely wiped out! It's hard to tell!"
After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
If it really was a ruse, then sacrificing an entire garrison as a casualty is something no emperor would do; it might be something a foolish ruler would.
But would an ambitious emperor like Xu Tianran simply let a powerful border garrison die?
A brief silence fell over everyone.
Only Ye Nanxiao knew in his heart that this was what Xu Tianran had done.
Xu Tianran is a ruthless and cunning man who would stop at nothing to seize the throne. He is willing to kill his own people and even his own brothers' bloodlines.
Even his own possessions could be used as pawns in a transaction.
Sacrificing a garrison might be a price Xu Tianran could bear.
However, Ye Nanxiao did not say it, as he lacked evidence.
Duke Baihu guards the border and doesn't issue orders based on his own words.
"Your Grace, do you know the origins of the two legions sent by the Sun Moon Empire?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
"It's the guardian hand of the Sun Moon Empire! The Imperial Dragon Soul Master Corps and the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps!" Dai Hao said solemnly.
The Guardian Hands—this is the strongest Soul Master Legion of the Sun Moon Empire, currently stationed in the Mingdou Mountains. The pressure on Dai Hao's shoulders is immense.
"I have a suggestion. Shrek Academy is a recognized neutral force on the continent, dedicated only to combating evil. Perhaps we could establish diplomatic relations with the two fingers of the Guardian Hand," Ye Nanxiao proposed.
"And then, you want to volunteer for the diplomatic mission that's being sent out, right?" Several chicken leg bones appeared in Elder Xuan's hand.
Ye Nanxiao nodded, then quickly covered his head to avoid the chicken leg bone.
However, this time Elder Xuan did not make a move. Instead, he asked seriously, "How confident are you?"
Just as Ye Nanxiao was about to speak, he felt two burning gazes from behind him.
"I think it's about 50%. I've done business with Fire Phoenix before, and I know their officers," Ye Nanxiao said.
"Business?" Dai Hao asked, slightly surprised.
"Elder Xuan, the decision is up to you." Shattered Star Douluo spread his hands, relinquishing the right to decide.
Dai Hao nodded in agreement and looked at Elder Xuan.
Elder Xuan looked at Ye Nanxiao and asked, "How long can this life-saving device last?"
"Five minutes for anything below Super, one minute for Super." A glint of silver flashed in Ye Nanxiao's eyes.
Elder Xuan immediately understood, shouldered the Gluttonous Bone, and shouted, "Let's go!"
