Gao Wu: Starting from Awakening the Bloodline of the Demon King
Chapter 46
After returning from Qinghe Farm, Yang Kui nursed his injuries for several days. It was during this period that he heard about Su An's deeds.
Although he had fought side by side with Su An, and his life was saved by the other party, and he knew how powerful the other party was, but hearing more than 800 million points still made Yang Kui feel unreal.
If it were anyone else, he might go to the tavern to brag about how good his relationship with Su An was, and talk about the other's extraordinary performances in battle.
But Yang Kui didn't do that.
He thought that was too flattering.
It is others who are stronger than oneself, and there is really nothing to brag about.
Originally, he planned to treat Su An to a drink after he returned, but now that the other party had become a figure, Yang Kui no longer wanted to go there and try to impress him.
He felt that a person like himself was not qualified to make friends with Su An. If he went there with a shy face, he might not get a good look. There was really no need to be warm to the cold butt.
Until Su An called him and asked him to go out for a drink.
Yang Kui was somewhat flattered.
There were only two of them when they were drinking. Su An didn't show any pride or arrogance. She really wanted to make friends with him, instead of showing off her achievements to him and showing her superiority over others.
At the wine table, Su An mostly asked him for advice, and his words and deeds showed his respect for a veteran.
After a drink, Yang Kui recognized Su An as his friend.
Yang Kui didn't let Su An pay for that drink. The other party saved his life. No matter what, he had to treat the other party first.
A few days later, Su An came to have dinner with him again. The reason was that he taught him a lot of things that only veterans know at the wine table last time and benefited a lot. Now he still wants to learn from him.
Yang Kui naturally would not refuse.
During the conversation, Su An invited him to join the Anxia Sect and was willing to give him the treatment of a fourth-level transcendent and a fifth-level warrior.
Yang Kui was very happy and moved, but he declined Su An's kindness.
His current sect master is kind to him, and he plans to work with him all the time, and will not change jobs just because others offer him a high salary.
Su An didn't force it, but asked him for something in the name of a friend.
Yang Kui did not refuse this time.
"The sect master asked you to come to his office." On this day, Yang Kui had just arrived at the training base when he received a notice from the sect master's secretary.
When he arrived at the sect leader's office, he was the only one in there, and his expression looked solemn.
"Xiao Yang, do you know Su An?" the sect leader asked.
"I know." Yang Kui replied.
"How's your relationship going?"
"What orders does the sect master have?"
"That's right. Several properties under the Anxia Sect's name are about to hold opening ceremonies. He has invited many sect leaders in Dongping District to attend the banquet. You know, this is the custom. The Anxia Sect needs to integrate into the sect's social circle. "
"Presumably the sect master is also invited?"
"indeed so."
Yang Kui looked at the sect leader, and the sect master looked at him. The two of them didn't speak for a while.
After a long while, the sect leader sighed: "Inspector Huang, the patrol officer, gave me a task, and asked us to cooperate with him to do something when the time comes. He promised to give us 2000 million when the task is completed."
Yang Kui's heart suddenly became alarmed: "What is worth 2000 million?"
2000 million is not a small amount, it is the profit of the sect's industry for half a year. He is only level [-]. If he hunts down fellow demon monks, he will need to kill five demon heads!
He has never killed a fourth-level demon cultivator so far.
The sect leader said: "Xiao Yang, I called you here today because I want to give you a chance to choose.
"If you want to continue listening, then you can only join this operation. If you choose not to participate, then we will not talk about this matter."
Yang Kui fell into silence.
The sect leader is taking care of his relationship with Su An.
He only told a sect colleague that Su An had saved his life, and the other person was the sect leader's daughter.
"Sect Master, do we have to help the patrol room?" Yang Kui tried to dissuade him.
The sect leader said melancholy: "Which sect can not deal with the patrol house? If the patrol house causes trouble, all our industries will not be able to operate normally.
"This time Detective Huang is determined to kill and leaves us no choice."
Yang Kui clenched his fists: "But I heard that the Anxia Sect has a strong background and has a close relationship with the Demon Subduing Division. If we are unfavorable to the Anxia Sect, what will happen if the Demon Subduing Division retaliates afterwards?"
"That's something Detective Huang should consider," the sect leader said.
Yang Kui gritted his teeth and said: "The Anxia Sect is now strong and strong, so we are not easy to mess with. We are only a two-star sect. If things don't work out..."
"Of course we are not the only ones who take action." The sect leader waved his hand, "Okay Xiao Yang, you still have time to withdraw now. If we continue to communicate on this matter, you will have no choice but to participate."
Yang Kui's face was filled with pain.
When he walked out of the office building door, his mood had hit rock bottom.
In the end, he did not choose to join the sect's operation.
But it's not that he doesn't know what the sect is going to do.
Looking up at the gloomy sky, Yang Kui was in a dilemma, "Xiao Su, Xiao Su, you are really a prophet, what do you want me to do now?"
The favor Su An asked him to do was very simple: to inquire about information for Su An through his contacts, and to find out to the best of his ability whether any social sect had recently tried to harm An Xia Sect.
Yang Kui will not help the patrol room deal with Su An, but his sect has accepted Huang Hai's order. Should he tell Su An?
Having said that, it is detrimental to one's own sect and is tantamount to betrayal.
Don't tell me, I'm sorry for Su An's life-saving grace and their friendship.
......
A hotel in Dongping District.
There were about a dozen men and women sitting in a luxuriously decorated box. Everyone was not young and had a high level of cultivation, and they all exuded the air of a superior person.
The food and drinks have been served for a long time, but no one moved their chopsticks. The smokers kept smoking. Even though the air conditioner was set to ventilation mode, the private room was still smoky.
"You are also a sect leader. If you don't say anything at this time, you will be looked down upon." Finally, a middle-aged man with a beard on his face took the initiative to speak.
"It's easy not to be looked down upon. Just tell me first, have you received the order to attack the Anxia Sect?" A woman with a crew cut wearing earrings said coldly.
"Sect Master Zhao, if you are chatting like this, it will be meaningless for us to get together today." The middle-aged man did not directly answer the other party's question.
The crew-cut woman sneered: "Among all the people here, you are the one who has the closest relationship with the patrol room. With this relationship, you are usually very arrogant. Why are you so timid today?"
"Or are you here to get information on behalf of the patrol house?"
The middle-aged man's face darkened: "I can get close to the police station. That's my ability. I know you are jealous. If you want to curry favor with others, others may not give you this opportunity!"
The flat-haired woman chuckled: "So you really accepted the assignment from the patrol room. Could it be that you are here to persuade us to work as dogs with you on behalf of your master?"
The middle-aged man slammed the table: "Zhao Xiaokui! If you spit shit again, believe it or not, I will make you look for teeth all over the floor?!"
"Zheng, you stick a green onion in your pig's nose, pretending to be garlic. If you have the guts, come over and try it!" Zhao Xiaokui stood up suddenly.
The smell of gunpowder instantly filled the box.
"Okay, okay, calm down. Huang Hai and Su An haven't started fighting yet. What if we fall out first?"
A man next to Zhao Xiaokui, who looked elegant and easy-going, pulled her to sit down again and waved his hand to the man named Zheng to stop making trouble.
"Now that the words have been spoken to this extent, I will no longer hide them."
Zheng Mingcheng looked around at everyone, "Whether it's the patrol room or the demon subduing department, you and I can't afford to offend you. As long as trouble doesn't come to your door, there's no need to push forward. It's better to live a stable life than anything else.
"When the battle begins, I hope you will be optimistic about your own people and not do anything extra. If anyone takes advantage of the situation at this time, I guarantee that I will settle the score later!"
When he said the last sentence, his eyes fell on Zhao Xiaokui again.
Sensing Zheng Mingcheng's warning, Zhao Xiaokui suddenly became angry, but before she slapped the table, an elegant and easy-going voice sounded first:
"I understand what Sect Leader Zheng means. It seems that you have indeed taken over the task of patrolling the patrol room and want to participate in the operation against Anxia Sect.
"This is your own business and has nothing to do with us. No one can blame you. Everyone is free..."
Speaking of this, the man's voice became a bit more playful, "Since everyone has personal freedom, it is not Sect Master Zheng's turn to comment on what others want to do.
"You beat your Anxia Sect, and I'll beat my enemies. We all make a living based on our abilities, but there is no such thing as what you say will be what you say."
Hearing this, Zheng Mingcheng's face darkened. Just as he was about to say something, many of the sect leaders present nodded in agreement, so he could only swallow his words.
The other party’s meaning is very clear:
He, Zheng Mingcheng, could bring his sect's fighting strength to help Huang Hai go to war with the Anxia Sect, but others could also take advantage of the opportunity to deal with him when his sect was empty.
For example, Zhao Xiaokui.
The social sects are not all harmonious. Some are friends and others are enemies. The origin may be due to a dispute over industrial interests, or it may be due to a rift during a mission.
There is both cooperation and calculation between them.
Zhao Xiaokui and Zheng Mingcheng are enemies.
This time Zheng Mingcheng dispatched the sect's combat power to deal with the Anxia Sect, Zhao Xiaokui could take advantage of it, attack the other sect, and rob the other party's property.
And this was exactly what Zheng Mingcheng didn't want to see, and it was also one of the problems he wanted to solve when he gathered everyone for this meal.
It's a pity that saying "settlement of accounts in the future" can't scare Zhao Xiaokui away.
Jizhou City has more than one patrol office. Zheng Mingcheng has Huang Hai as his backer, and Zhao Xiaokui also has his own connections. As long as she can create established facts, she is not afraid of revenge after patrolling the house.
It is impossible for Huang Hai to let Anxia Sect be established safely. He will definitely find ways to deal with Su An, because Anxia Sect's extraordinary weapons have taken shape, and Huang Hai needs to drive the social sects to take action.
Although the patrol house has power, it is not the only authority. Even though most sects in society have to make donations to the patrol house, there are definitely not many sects who are willing to sacrifice their lives for Huang Hai.
There are even fewer powerful sects.
In a word, the water in the extraordinary circle is not shallow, and the situation in the world is very complicated.
Although he had fought side by side with Su An, and his life was saved by the other party, and he knew how powerful the other party was, but hearing more than 800 million points still made Yang Kui feel unreal.
