102: The fish is hooked
General Wang, did something happen that you called us all together in the middle of the night?” Qiu Tianzheng asked Wang Mang curiously.
The others were much the same.
If it had been anyone else but Wang Mang, they wouldn't have shown up at this hour.
“I found my disciple! But he's currently in the Ferocious Beast Zone. I'm afraid something might go wrong with me, so I want you all to come with me!” Wang Mang said directly.
The few exchanged glances, their brows subtly furrowing.
“Then why not let him return quietly? What is Ye Liuyun doing running off to the Ferocious Beast Zone?” Qiu Tianding couldn't help but ask.
If he could go out, could he not come back?
No wonder they couldn't find him.
After all that, he went to the Ferocious Beast Zone?
Qiu Tianding's face showed a sneer.
Isn't that just asking for death?
It's already a miracle he didn't die there!
“Alas, this situation is actually very complex. You don't know my disciple's family background.
It's been too hard; his family all died at the hands of Vicious Beasts, and he has an obsession with Vicious Beasts!
Originally, he wanted to go and vent his hatred on Vicious Beasts, but he didn't expect to delve deeper and deeper, and now he can't get out!
There are many Vicious Beasts around him!
Anyway, you see, help if you want, if not, I'll go myself!” Wang Mang said, raising his voice.
If he were overly humble, it would be too abnormal. Anyone could tell something was up with that!
“This…”
Qiu Tianzheng tapped the table, his eyes narrowed.
Going to the Ferocious Beast Zone in the middle of the night? And with Wang Mang? This sounds unreliable no matter how you look at it!
“General Wang, it's not that we won't agree, how about this? You wait a bit, and I'll discuss it with Old Master Qiu!
After all, our identities are special; if we suddenly leave, it might cause panic!
Of course, we will definitely try our best!”
Qiu Tianzheng quickly shifted the problem to Old Master Qiu!
At this moment, Qiu Tianding, who had just been sneering, slowly changed his expression, a sly glint appearing in his eyes.
“Ahem, General Wang, this matter actually doesn't require so many of us. I'm familiar with the Ferocious Beast Zone. How about this, I'll go with you quietly!
I also had some unpleasantness with Little Ye, and I hope this can be resolved this time!
After all, everyone is working hard for Great Xia!”
Qiu Tianzheng's face instantly showed displeasure.
This bastard, he's clearly trying to win over Wang Mang!
Qiu Tianding was indeed doing just that!
Previously, they had opposed Wang Mang because Old Master Qiu and Wang Mang didn't get along.
But now, Old Master Qiu wanted to bring Wang Mang over to their side.
So this was a great opportunity!
Shouldn't he strive for it?
“Oh? Alright, then I'll trouble General Qiu. Shall we go?
I didn't expect you to speak up. Don't worry, those past minor issues are water under the bridge!
We'll set off now, bring back my disciple, and from now on, we'll be sworn brothers!
I'll have my disciple marry your daughter!” Wang Mang said hastily.
What Qiu Tianzheng could see, Wang Mang, as the protagonist, naturally sensed.
He immediately adopted the posture Qiu Tianding wanted to see!
However, inwardly, he was full of mockery.
This guy really has a trick for everything!
These people of the Qiu Family!
Qiu Tianding was so happy.
If it weren't for the eldest brother's indecisiveness, could he have gotten such a good opportunity?
To establish a good relationship with Wang Mang at this critical juncture, he couldn't even imagine how much help that would be!
Moreover, the Ferocious Beast Zone was under his surveillance, so accidents were almost impossible!
He both resolved his entanglement with Ye Liuyun and connected with Wang Mang!
His standing in front of Old Master Qiu instantly increased!
Even not weaker than his younger sister!
As soon as Qiu Tianding finished speaking, Qiu Tianheng and the others became anxious.
They couldn't let Qiu Tianding and Wang Mang's relationship grow closer, so they all spoke up, vying for the opportunity.
But none of them could get a piece of this pie, yet they couldn't let Qiu Tianding have it all to himself.
The latter's face darkened, furious inside.
But he couldn't speak up; that would be too undignified.
Anyway, he was the first to speak.
Finally, Wang Mang saw that four people had taken the bait and immediately agreed, giving up on the remaining Qiu Tianzheng, who was too cautious. He couldn't sway such a person.
So he decided to give up. It was just one Qiu Tianzheng; if he dealt with the four of them, the remaining one would be nothing to fear!
“Thank you all. I, Wang Mang, will remember today's matter. From now on, this favor is on me! Let's go!
After we bring back my disciple, I'll treat you all to a meal. Whichever of you has a daughter, I'll have him marry her!”
After Wang Mang finished speaking, the four followed him out.
Some of them resented Ye Liuyun, some disliked Ye Liuyun, but without exception, everyone knew Ye Liuyun's talent.
If they could bring him back and have him as their son-in-law.
Who wouldn't want that?
Throughout, Qiu Tianzheng barely had a chance to speak!
After everyone had left.
Qiu Tianzheng sighed heavily. He actually had some objections to Old Master Qiu's method of cultivating successors.
This competitive method was destined to leave them with no brotherly affection.
Below, they had been subjected to that 'wolf-like' education since childhood!
But he had no say in the matter.
He could only let it be, and it had developed to this point where each of them wanted to surpass their brothers.
Struggling for power and profit... Alas!
Qiu Tianzheng also didn't leave. It didn't matter whether he went now or not. He was a bit puzzled; this didn't align with Wang Mang's usual behavior.
But he couldn't imagine what danger there would be.
The people from Headquarters were all under their surveillance, let alone the four of them. If Wang Mang wanted to make a sudden move.
Surely one of the four could run back!
Wang Mang wouldn't dare either!
He might as well wait here.
Accompanied by the four, Wang Mang easily left the Western Front.
He sped away with the four.
“General Wang, where is Little Ye?”
Qiu Tianding asked anxiously.
He was eager to show his amiability in front of Ye Liuyun now, to resolve the previous misunderstanding.
“I only know a general area; we still need to go deeper! If something happens then, I'll need your help!” Wang Mang said, cupping his hands.
“Don't worry, General Wang, today we brothers will definitely help you find Captain Ye!”
“Fourth Brother is right!”
“It's no trouble at all, General Wang, why be so polite!”
Qiu Tianding snorted coldly.
Each one more eloquent than the last!
If he hadn't spoken up, they would still be listening to the eldest brother and waiting for Old Master Qiu to speak.
A bunch of good-for-nothings!
As they gradually approached Ye Liuyun's area, Wang Mang was already prepared!
Ye Liuyun, ambushed in a hollow, was also fully focused, ready to transform at any moment!
Wang Mang had already informed them when he appeared!
Half the task was already done!
