In the military building.
After being forcefully pulled into the elevator by Wang Xiao, the confusion on Zhou Xiruo’s face intensified. “Wang Xiao, what conditions did you raise? Why are you still arguing with Commander Chen?”
“He’s just a stingy person! He won’t even give me a Black Iron Ore!”
Wang Xiao cursed angrily with an unhappy expression, but he secretly pinched Zhou Xiruo’s hand.
This was a small tacit understanding between the two of them.
Zhou Xiruo immediately realized that this was not the place to talk. While being vigilant, she continued calmly, “Don’t be too angry. Commander Chen has helped us after all!”
As she spoke, Zhou Xiruo also secretly pinched Wang Xiao’s hand, intending to tell him that she had already understood.
Wang Xiao hooked his finger in response and continued to scold Chen Jinrong indignantly. “So what if he helped us before? He wants me to work for him for such a small thing. Does he take me for a stupid kid? Since doesn’t want to give it to me, now I don’t want it anymore!”
Wang Xiao went all out while Zhou Xiruo persuaded him from the side. The two of them scolded Chen Jinrong all the way out of the military building, attracting countless people to stop and watch along the way.
After walking out of the door for a distance, Zhou Xiruo asked softly, “This place should be safe. What are you and Commander Chen planning?
“Oh? Even with my good acting skills, you weren’t convinced?”
Wang Xiao looked at Zhou Xiruo in surprise. Before the other party could speak, he said, “However, this is not the place to talk. Go home first. See you in our territory.”

Outsiders could not enter the lord’s territory, so it was naturally impossible for others to eavesdrop.
Wang Xiao explained the entire matter again. Although he had already said it once in the military building, this time, he really did not hide anything.
Hearing that the [Volcanic Melting Lizard] had died in battle, Zhou Xiruo could not help but reveal a sad expression.
Actually, her relationship with the [Volcanic Melting Lizard] was not considered close, but when she thought of how the two young [Volcanic Melting Lizards] had lost their mother, Zhou Xiruo could not help but feel a little emotional.
After a moment of silence, Zhou Xiruo adjusted her mood. “What about the
Silver Shadow Leopard? Have you successfully signed a contract?”
Wang Xiao nodded. Previously, at the headquarters of the Lord’s Shop, he had sensed that the contract had been successfully signed, so he did not continue to forcefully barge into the [Thorn Canyon].
Looking around and not finding the shadow of the [Silver Shadow Leopard] in the territory, Wang Xiao said, “It should be recuperating somewhere. After all, it has been poisoned by the [Poison Feather Thorn]. Our territory can ensure that it doesn’t die, but it can’t immediately recover.”
Zhou Xiruo nodded, and her expression became a little emotional. “The last time I saw that little fellow, I felt that it was extraordinary. I just didn’t expect it to actually have a skill to hide its strength!”
“I was also shocked when I saw that skill!”
Wang Xiao sighed with emotion. “To be able to hide its level as the peak of silver level three and even bypass the [Identification Scroll]—the next time I train with Teacher Tian Gang, I’ll definitely scare him!”
“You only want to use such a magical skill for pranks?”
Zhou Xiruo rolled her eyes at Wang Xiao, paused, and asked seriously, “By the way, no one will definitely eavesdrop here. Can you tell me your plan with Commander Chen?”
At the mention of this, Wang Xiao suddenly smiled mysteriously. “Don’t be anxious. There are still people who haven’t arrived!”
“Someone who hasn’t arrived yet?”
Zhou Xiruo was stunned when she heard this. This was her and Wang Xiao’s territory. Other than them, no one else could enter. How could there be someone else?
Before Zhou Xiruo could ask further, a deep gray vortex suddenly opened in the air, and a burly middle-aged man slowly descended.
“Who is he? How can he enter our territory?”
Zhou Xiruo frowned and asked in surprise. At the same time, she felt that the middle-aged man was a little familiar, but she could not remember where she had seen him before.
After saying this, the middle-aged man had already landed on the ground.
Wang Xiao stood between the two of them and introduced with a suppressed smile, “Xiruo, this is Tang Longji, Lord Tang. He’s currently a level five lord. He’s Tang Hengshanls uncle… and also my vassal lord.”
“What?!”
Zhou Xiruo exclaimed. Seeing a level five lord was already shocking enough, but this level five lord was actually also Wang Xiao’s vassal lord?
“Are you done, kid?”
Tang Longji glared at Wang Xiao unhappily. “At that time, you said that I should sign the [vassal contract] in order to increase our tacit understanding.
Why do you make it sound like I’m the one who’s submitting now?”
“I didn’t say that! Moreover, even if there is submission, it would only be me submitting to you!”
Wang Xiao chuckled and said seriously before Tang Longji could speak, “How’s the Lord’s Shop?”
At the mention of serious matters, Tang Longji could only put down his grudges first. “I’ve already made things clear to Manager Lin, but…’
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt this point, Tang Longji glanced at Zhou Xiruo. Wang Xiao saw this and explained, “Xiruo already knows. You can speak without worry.”
“Oh? Looks like you really trust her?”
Tang Longji raised his eyebrows with a mischievous smile before continuing, “I didn’t say that Wu Yan is a Purple Star cultivator. I only said that he had ulterior motives and was dealt with by us. By the way, Manager Lin confirmed with the headquarters that he was indeed the survivor of the previous team.” Wang Xiao nodded. This situation was similar to what he had expected.
After a pause, Tang Longji asked again, “How’s the situation on your side? Have you informed the military?”
“Yes, we just came back from the military building.”
Wang Xiao nodded. “Actually, the military had already sensed it before I went.
After talking to Commander Chen, I came up with a preliminary plan.”
Hearing the word “plan”, Zhou Xiruo and Tang Longji perked up, but Wang Xiao did not continue.
Under the puzzled gazes of the two of them, Wang Xiao said seriously, “It’s not that I don’t believe you, but in order to ensure the smooth implementation of the plan, the less you know, the better.”
“Also, Uncle Tang.”
Wang Xiao looked at Tang Longji with a troubled expression. “I previously promised to cancel the vassal contract after leaving the secret realm, but I still need your help with this plan, so…”
“Got it. ”
Tang Longji nodded before Wang Xiao could finish speaking. “I can continue to be your vassal lord, but we can’t let a fourth person know! I can’t afford to lose face by being the vassal lord of a third-level lord!”
“Don’t worry! No fourth person will know!”
Without another word, Wang Xiao patted his chest and promised. He really did not expect Tang Longji to agree so readily.
With this level five lord who was good at fighting as his trump card, this show of luring the snake out of its hole could begin!
