People in Douluo, the mastermind behind the scenes

The person responsible for liaison with Poseidon Pavilion and Tang Sect has always been Crown Princess Mo Lian, and this time is no exception.

With the help of her personal maid, Mo Lian pushed open the door of the private room with ease. The next moment, she retreated out of the room in panic, as if she had seen something she shouldn't have seen, and quickly closed the door.

It was really cool. I actually saw Huo Yuhao standing behind Yunxi, acting as a bodyguard. It must be that she was too cool.

Mo Lian grabbed the door handle, took a deep breath, and opened the door of the private room again.

Nothing happened in the private room. Huo Yuhao stood quietly behind Yunxi with a cold expression, acting a bit like a professional attendant.

“What did Huo Yuhao experience during the year and a half he was missing? Why did he change so much?”

Although she still had doubts in her heart, since it was an exchange between two major forces after all, she could only suppress her curiosity and silently came to the seat opposite Yunxi and sat down.

"Money and resources are not a problem. As long as I give the order, Shrek City will urgently allocate a batch of resources to Lingdou City. I just want to ask you one question: Can the city wall at the port be built?"

Yunxi was too lazy to argue any further and did not discuss the ownership of the funds needed to build the city wall. She directly stated her purpose by showing off her wealth. Anyway, it was not her money that was being spent. If they ran out of money, she would hold another donation event. If they were unwilling to donate, her property would be confiscated. Who the hell was afraid of who?

Ah this...

This operation surprised Mo Lian. When did the Poseidon Pavilion become so generous that they didn't even need the Douling Empire to pay for building the sea defense line?

Free is always the most expensive, this is an eternal truth. Since ancient times, it has been difficult to repay favors, let alone favors from the Poseidon Pavilion.

Mo Lian said awkwardly, "Special Envoy Yun, isn't this a bit bad? You help us share the pressure from the Sun Moon Empire and the Beidou Spirit, and you also spend a huge amount of money to build a defense line at sea for us. Isn't this a bit, um... not good?"

Hearing this, Yunxi curled her lips and said impatiently, "Crown Princess, let me tell you clearly, you and I both know the situation inside the Douling Empire. If there were conditions to build a sea defense line, we wouldn't have waited until now. Those old people who shut themselves up would have wanted to gather all the resources of the continent in Shrek City. Now that things have come to this, it's time to return those resources."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Lian nodded as if he suddenly understood something. It turned out that... Poseidon Pavilion was not being generous, but Chen Yu felt that the group of old people who kept silent were too disgusting, so he wanted to bleed them and support the front-line defense at the same time.

Things have come to this point, if Mo Lian refuses again, it would seem a bit too contrived.

Thinking of this, Mo Lian slowly stood up, looked in the direction of Yunxi, bowed slightly and said: "Since Envoy Yun insists on doing this, we will be disrespectful to refuse."

After the two of them finalized some details, Mo Lian took his leave first. Before the assistance provided by the Sea God Pavilion arrived, the Douling Empire would have to first provide the resources needed to build the sea defense line. They couldn't wait until the resources were transported from Shrek City before starting work, right?

After Mo Lian left, Huo Yuhao came and sat down in the seat where Mo Lian had sat before, took a new cup, and poured himself a full cup of fragrant tea.

Huo Yuhao took a sip of tea and asked thoughtfully, "Sister Yunxi, do you have any other mission besides building the sea defense line when you come to Lingdou City this time?"

Yunxi said expressionlessly: "Not for now, but I can't go back to Shrek City. Those old shut-ins will probably hate me to death." Huo Yuhao: "..."

Huo Yuhao then realized why he had to be appointed as Yunxi's protector. Since he had decided to suppress those old cloak-and-daggers and did not want to make a big fuss, he must not make things public.

The people of the Sea God Family were Chen Yu's direct descendants. Under such circumstances, it was not appropriate to let the strong men of the Sea God Family serve as Yunxi's protectors. Huo Yuhao was full of evil, so it was just right for him to be Yunxi's protector.
Suitable for taking the blame.

Of course, after growing up, Huo Yuhao didn’t care. It just so happened that he didn’t like the old people in the Sea God Pavilion.

After an unknown amount of time, Yunxi no longer had the confident look she had in the past. A trace of sadness appeared on her pretty face. "Yuhao, do you think... can we win this war?"

"War is about the right time, right place, and right people. Gods are not gods. No one knows which side will win the final victory until the last moment of the war."

Huo Yuhao said with a smile: "Of course I hope that our camp can achieve the final victory. What about you, Sister Yunxi? Which side do you hope will win this war?"

Yunxi said quietly, "From a standpoint, I naturally hope that the Sea God Pavilion can win this war. But from my heart, I hope that the Ningyun Sect can achieve the final victory. Everyone can practice, and the quality of the martial soul can no longer determine the upper limit of the soul master. What kind of grand scene will that be?"

Huo Yuhao: "..."

You, Yunxi, are the special envoy, the special envoy of Poseidon Pavilion stationed in Lingdou City. Is it appropriate to say this?

However...Since Yunxi dared to say it, it means that he has no intention of joining the Ningyun Sect. With Yunxi's identity, after Chen Yu ascends, he will most likely be the next leader of the Sea God Pavilion, so there is no need to betray the Sea God Pavilion.

“How many people in this world can always follow their heart?” Huo Yuhao couldn’t help but sigh: “You all know the story of my previous life very well. Until I ascended to heaven, I was unable to personally destroy the White Tiger Duke’s Mansion, end Dai Huabin’s life, and avenge my mother.”

"Forget it, let's talk about something else."

Huo Yuhao asked curiously, "I just returned to Shrek City, and was sent out by Senior Sister Chen Yu to carry out a mission. I haven't had time to inquire about the Tang Sect and Sister Xiaoya's recent situation."

"Tang Ya...is missing." Yunxi said with a serious expression.

“Missing?” Huo Yuhao frowned and asked, “How could such a big living person disappear for no reason?”

Yunxi said helplessly, "Who knows? Chen Qi just closed himself off for three days, and we couldn't find him after he came out. At first, we thought Tang Ya was taken away by the Holy Spirit Church to become a Blue Silver Saint. After negotiating with the top leaders of the Holy Spirit Church, they only responded with one sentence."

"They said... Tang Ya's IQ is worrying. She can't do anything. She doesn't leave any residue after eating. Apart from her good looks, she has no other strengths. Keeping such a person in the Holy Spirit Church will only taint the bloodline of the upper echelons. Don't push everything onto them. They won't take the blame." (End of this chapter)
