209: Chapter 209 So many people, be serious!

In the night sky, the moon was bright and the stars sparse, the clouds deep and the mist heavy.

As Chen Yan's voice fell, slight ripples appeared in the Void Realm.

A figure slowly flew out from the clouds and appeared before the Revered Master and disciple.

Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall was still in that snow-white armor, but the anger on her face had long since vanished, replaced by an indescribable... sense of relief.

Chen Yan raised an eyebrow, grinning, and lay comfortably on the Somersault Cloud, his gaze sweeping over the top of Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall's head without changing his expression.

[ Favorability + 20! ]

[ Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall Favorability: 50 / 100! ]

That green goodwill value remained firm, and even her favorability had increased by 20 all at once!

He curled his lip and muttered in his heart: "Holy crap!"

"This woman doesn't seem like a good person at all! She clearly wants me to kill City Lord Zhao Bing, yet she insisted on putting on a show of protecting her subordinates."

"She's acting like a hypocrite! Bah! Shameless!"

"My Revered Master is still the best, she is consistent inside and out with me, and loves me so much!"

Leng Qingshuang sat to the side, listening to this Rebellious Disciple's inner thoughts, her face flushing slightly.

Rebellious Disciple!

You just like spouting nonsense, don't you?

Seeing Chen Yan's appearance, the usually proud Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall also revealed a look of confusion in her eyes.

This person really doesn't play by the rules.

Upon entering Linyuan City, he directly helped her solve a huge problem.

She just didn't know if it was a lucky guess, or if he was truly as the Sect Leader said, with a mind like a demon?

After a long silence.

Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall finally sighed softly and spoke frankly to Chen Yan and Leng Qingshuang: "Junior Martial Uncle Leng, Junior Brother Chen; this time, you helped me break the deadlock, I really should say thank you!"

Chen Yan raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "Just a thank you?"

But Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall looked up at Linyuan City and did not answer Chen Yan directly.

Instead, she explained to them: "From the day I stepped onto the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall, I knew what City Lord Zhao Bing and his son were doing!"

"Relying on their status, they not only acted tyrannically in Linyuan City but also secretly embezzled supplies from the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall!"

"I haven't just wanted to kill them for a day or two!"

"But as former subordinates of my father, they have entrenched themselves in Linyuan City for hundreds of years and have long since roped in the other five supply cities, forming a network of interests among them!"

"They huddle together for warmth, and one move affects the whole situation! If I were to act rashly, it would very likely trigger turmoil in the supply lines!"

"For the tens of millions of defenders on the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall, that would be a catastrophe!"

"Then I would become a sinner in the eyes of the world!"

As she spoke, she raised her hand and pointed to the armor on her body, which was stained with dried blood.

Clearly, when she was called to Linyuan City today, she had still been fighting on the front lines!

Chen Yan sneered: "So you just kept enduring it?"

Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall smiled bitterly: "What else could I do? I have guarded the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall for a hundred years, yet I could only watch helplessly as this group of people exchanged the flesh and blood of the front-line soldiers for Spirit Stones to stuff into their own pockets."

"If I don't have the means to kill them in one blow, no matter which one I touch, all five supply cities will fall into paralysis!"

"If the rear is in chaos, the front line will collapse! By then, the Demon Race will drive straight in, and even more people will die!"

Chen Yan was silent for a moment, but then suddenly laughed.

"It is hard to imagine that you, as the Chief of the Taiqing Sword Sect's First Peak and number one on the hidden dragon ranking, could be so naive!"

He sat upright and looked at Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall with sharp eyes:

"As the saying goes, benevolence does not command troops, and sentimentality does not establish affairs!"

"For people like City Lord Zhao Bing, do you really think their desires stop there?"

"You must know that the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall is the most important defense line of the Tianxuan Continent. If they are allowed to continue their greed, after a long time, let alone the Demon Race, the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall itself will collapse from within!"

Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall stiffened upon hearing this, but did not refute it in the slightest.

Clearly, she herself was also aware of this fact!

But five supply cities meant five Mahayana Realm cultivators!

Add to that the intricate network of relationships behind them.

This force was in no way inferior to a top-tier Sect!

Unless the entire Taiqing Sword Sect descended, it would be impossible to take over securely!

In her heart... she was actually very desperate too!

Seeming to see the worry in Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall's heart, Chen Yan chuckled, held Leng Qingshuang's waist, and lay down leisurely.

"You are concerned about old feelings, afraid of insufficient strength, and worried about riots in the supply cities, but I am not afraid!"

"Troubled times require heavy codes; rotting flesh must be cut away with one stroke!"

"Matters that you, Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall, dare not manage, I will manage! People that you, Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall, dare not kill, I will kill!"

"Execute first, report later, Taiqing special permission!"

He took out the taiqing heaven-patrol token from his bosom, the golden token shining in the moonlight.

Then he tossed it casually toward Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall.

Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall caught it subconsciously, and she was completely stunned.

Chen Yan continued to smile: "Now, you just need to tell me which cities I need to manage, and which people I need to kill!"

"Just a few Mahayana Realm cultivators, they can't turn the world upside down!"

What a joke!

He and his Revered Master, each with a sword, beat the Wan Jian Sect so much they didn't dare to show their heads.

A mere few Mahayana Realm cultivators dare to jump around in front of them?

As for the supply lines in the rear after these people die, wouldn't it be fine to just have the Sect send a few more people over?

Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall looked down at the token in her hand, unable to speak for a long time.

Leng Qingshuang, who had been silent all along, raised her hand and gently tidied the hair that had been blown messy by the wind for Chen Yan.

Then she looked up at Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall, her voice cold, yet carrying a trace of heartache:

"The Demon Suppressing City is not just your own Demon-Suppressing Great Wall; everything will naturally be protected by the Sect for you!"

"You don't have to bear everything by yourself!"

Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall's body stiffened suddenly, and her eyes turned red instantly!

She had guarded the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall for a hundred years, accustomed to the hypocrisy of her subordinates and the shirking of their duties, yet no one had ever said such words to her!

She turned her head away, quickly wiping the corners of her eyes to hide her loss of composure.

A moment later, she turned back and bowed solemnly to Chen Yan and Leng Qingshuang: "Since that is the case, I will leave these people to you two."

Chen Yan waved his hand and said: "This is also the responsibility of the Sect; you should first tell us who these people are!"

Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall then reined in her emotions, recovering some of her capability:

"The five supply cities, in addition to Linyuan City, are Yuyang City, Zilin City..."

She described the other four cities and their City Lords to Chen Yan and Leng Qingshuang in detail one by one!

Moreover, according to the agreement, tomorrow is the day the supplies are delivered!

"Now that City Lord Zhao Bing has been crippled, he will definitely contact the other four, and tomorrow they will put pressure on me!"

She looked at Leng Qingshuang and said respectfully: "At that time, I will need Junior Martial Uncle Leng to help take action!"

Leng Qingshuang nodded slightly: "No problem, it's just right to catch them all in one net!"

The three of them finalized the plan for tomorrow on the spot.

In order not to attract the attention of others, Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall continued to hide her figure and left first to rush to the front line.

Chen Yan pulled Leng Qingshuang, sat on the Somersault Cloud, circled around, and entered the pass from the side.

The night wind was cold, but it could not blow away the ambiguous warmth between the Revered Master and disciple.

Chen Yan held Leng Qingshuang's slender waist, gently stroking it, and grinned, seeking credit: "Revered Master, do you think I'm awesome? Was I particularly handsome just now?"

Leng Qingshuang glanced at him, slapped his hand away with annoyance, and scolded with a smile: "You have a glib tongue."

Chen Yan chuckled, his large hand falling onto his Revered Master's fair and smooth thighs, continuing to stroke: "Ha! You still won't admit it? Just now you were staring at me in a daze!"

Leng Qingshuang's face flushed slightly, she pressed down on his mischievous hand, and said shyly and angrily: "Bah! You're talking nonsense!"

Chen Yan wouldn't have it now!

You can doubt my strength, but you cannot doubt my charm!

He widened his eyes, gently lifted Leng Qingshuang's chin, looked straight into her sparkling eyes, and smiled: "Whether I am talking nonsense or not, your husband will know after verifying it!"

As he spoke, he pursed his lips, about to start bullying his Revered Master's red lips.

The Somersault Cloud moved slowly, and the outline of the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall could already be seen ahead!

Countless Divine Senses kept sweeping over.

Leng Qingshuang's face turned red, and seeing this Rebellious Disciple's shameless behavior in broad daylight, she raised her hand and flicked his forehead!

"Pong~"

What a melon!

"There are so many people here, behave!"

Chen Yan: "o(╥﹏╥)o."

He covered his forehead, acting aggrieved.
