Imparting My Cultivation To Beasts Gets Me 10,000X In Return!
Chapter 320 - Turn Their Scheme Against ThemChapter 320: Turn Their Scheme Against Them
In front of the gate of the City Lord’s estate.
Fatty and Fu Hu hurriedly walked out. Their faces were gloomy and they didn’t say a word.
When they were far away from the City Lord’s estate, they found a small shop and stopped.
“Waiter, serve the dishes and wine!”
Fu Hu ordered the waiter and ordered a few dishes and a few jars of good wine.
“Alright, don’t worry. The food and wine are guaranteed to be delicious!”
The waiter nodded, bowed and took the tip Fu Hu gave him walked out with a smile on his face.
After the waiter walked out and closed the door, Fatty could not help but say, “Fu Hu, what are you doing? Why are you eating and drinking here? I’m not in the mood!”
After hearing their report, the City Lord was indeed as furious as expected. However, he did not punish the two of them. Instead, he let them lead fifty people from the City Lord’s estate to search for Lin Bai’s whereabouts. If they could not find him, they would not be able to return. As for the consequences…
At first glance, this matter did seem like something that the City Lord would do. However, if one thought about it carefully, they would feel that there were many loopholes.
Fu Hu used his finger to feel the outer edge of the teacup. With a solemn expression, he slowly said, “Do you really think that the City Lord wants us to capture Lin Bai?”
Fatty shook his head. “I feel that there’s something fishy about this matter. At first glance, it looks fine, but...”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFu Hu’s eyes lit up, revealing an expression of surprise. “That’s right. If you feel that there’s nothing fishy about this matter, I was planning to leave you behind!”
When Fatty heard this, his eyelids twitched. He was even more certain of Fu Hu’s words. In the future, he would only believe 30% of what Fu Hu said. Otherwise, he would really be scammed. Not even his pants would be left.
“There’s indeed something fishy about this matter. After the City Lord heard our report, there was indeed no problem with his anger. The key was that he did not punish us afterwards, nor did he verify whether what we said was true or false... Also, the most suspicious thing was that he wanted us to bring 50 people.”
When Fu Hu said this, his voice became lower and lower, as if he was afraid that someone else would hear it.
“I also feel that these few points are the most suspicious, but the City Lord’s goal, I can’t figure it out no matter how hard I try.”
The fatty frowned and said in agreement.
“This matter, you...”
Fu Hu was about to continue speaking when the door creaked open. The waiter carried a fawning smile and walked in with food and wine.
Fu Hu wiped away the smile that appeared in an instant and his expression gradually became calm. “Mhm, just leave it here. If there’s nothing else, don’t bother us!”
As Fu Hu spoke, he took out another silver ingot from his pocket and placed it on the table.
The waiter’s eyes lit up when he saw this. He quickly grabbed the silver ingot in his hand and said obsequiously, “Alright, I guarantee that even if the sky falls, no one will disturb you!”
After saying this, the waiter tactfully left.
After hearing the waiter’s footsteps gradually walking away, Fu Hu continued, “Regarding this matter, do you think that when he said that he wanted us to lead 50 people, it was really us who chose the people, or did he already prepare them for us?”
Hiss!
Fatty felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his body felt slightly creeped out. “Then what you mean is...”
Fu Hu nodded casually. “Of course, it’s just a guess. We don’t have any evidence yet, but when we do, we won’t be far from death.”
“Next, we might as well play along...”
Fu Hu began to discuss strategies. As he spoke, he didn’t forget to pick up a piece of chicken with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth to slowly chew it.
…
After a long while, the two of them finished eating and drinking, and returned to the City Lord’s estate. However, as soon as they left the small shop, the two of them clearly felt a few gazes fixed on them.
Fu Hu and Fatty looked at each other, but did not say anything. Instead, they continued to walk towards the City Lord’s estate.
However, as soon as the two of them arrived in front of the City Lord’s estate, they saw two mighty teams already standing in front of the City Lord’s estate. There were two people at the front of the team as leaders.
Fu Hu and Fatty knew these two people. They were also the people who had entered the City Lord’s secret chamber with them previously. They were also people who had been corroded by the demonic qi.
On the left was a man dressed like a scholar. His skin was sallow, and his body was thin. His name was Jin Cheng, and he was a beastmaster. His strength was one of the best in the entire City Lord’s estate.
On the right was a man with his upper body bare, like a mountain. His skin was copper-colored, and his two luxuriant eyebrows were linked together. He had a full beard, and he looked like a savage. It was Zhang Lie.
Zhang Lie was a martial cultivator with immense strength. It was said that he had a conflict with a martial artist from the City Lord’s estate. He used two fingers to crush the other party to death.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFatty’s eyebrows were raised as he saw this. He cursed silently in his heart, “He really wants us to die!”
Fu Hu’s face was very calm. He greeted Jin Cheng and Zhang lie and said, “The City Lord actually sent the two of you to help us. He really thinks too highly of us! We are extremely grateful for the City Lord’s efforts!”
Jin Cheng waved his hand and his thin face smiled. His dry skin outlined the appearance of his bones. This smile was extremely cold. “No, aren’t we all here to capture Lin Bai? Only by capturing him can this world be peaceful!”
Zhang Lie was silent. He only had two bell-like eyes as he sized up Fatty and Fu Hu. It was unknown what he was thinking about.
“Shall we set off now?” Jin Cheng asked.
“Ahem, speaking of which, I have a presumptuous request. I would like to discuss it with the City Lord first. Can we set off after that? “Fu Hu revealed his honest and honest look again and said apologetically.
Jin Cheng’s eyes were cold. He looked at Zhang Lie beside him and then turned to look at Fu Hu. “The City Lord has something to do now. What presumptuous request do you have? Tell us. Maybe we can help too?”
“Yes!” Zhang Lie’s words were clear, but his voice was like an explosion in the air, causing eardrums to hurt.
“I’m afraid that even you guys can’t make the decision on this matter! Of course, I didn’t mean to look down on you guys.” Fu Hu rubbed his palms and said, “Actually, I want the City Lord to assign a few more people to us. The area of that forest is really too big, and Lin Bai...”
Before Fu Hu could finish, Jin Cheng interrupted, “That’s a small matter. The City Lord has already made arrangements. If you want to send more people, then although you... Of course, if things don’t work out in the end...”
As Jin Cheng spoke, a sinister expression appeared on his face, making people shudder.
“We want to bring one hundred more people each!”
Fu Hu’s words made Jin Cheng’s eyelids jump. He was really asking for too much!
There were many people in the City Lord’s estate who were already outside. The various great clans and sects had been called over by the City Lord to search for Lin Bai. It was impossible for the City Lord’s estate to move them around at will.
The 100 people from before, together with the 300 people now, could be said to be the majority of the City Lord’s Estate’s remaining forces. If all of these were taken away, then there would be very little left.
“This matter... I’ll have to ask the City Lord before I can make a decision. All of you wait here for a moment, I’ll be right back!”
