91: Temporary workers arrive at Biyou Village!

After Wang Ye left, Ma Xianhong looked at Lin Yuan.

"By the way, Immortal Master Lin Yuan, there's something I'd like to trouble you with."

"I'm already handling the matter you mentioned to me earlier. Give me a little more time, and I'll uncover the true identities of those people. By then, all those who committed evil will be purged by me."

"I believe that in a few days, Biyou Village will be completely clean."

Lin Yuan smiled but didn't speak.

Ma Xianhong could cleanse those who committed crimes before, but could he guarantee that the remaining people would never commit crimes for the rest of their lives?

When people gain power, greed is even more likely to run rampant.

Besides... Lin Yuan couldn't guarantee what Ma Xianhong would be like in a few days.

Anything he said to Ma Xianhong now would not be heard.

So, Lin Yuan simply nodded and left.

When he returned to his courtyard, he found Wang Ye waiting for him at the entrance.

"Immortal Master Lin Yuan, why didn't you let me stop Ma Xianhong just now? Don't you know the dangers of this matter?"

Wang Ye asked anxiously.

After listening, Lin Yuan chuckled:

"You don't need to worry. Ma Xianhong doesn't have enough time to create a cultivation furnace."

"I didn't quite understand. What do you mean, Immortal Master Lin Yuan?"

Wang Ye quickly pressed for an answer.

Lin Yuan pointed towards the back of the mountain. Chen Duo had been in Biyou Village for some time.

Soon, All-Kinds-Of's temporary workers would know her location and would come to kill her.

Therefore, within these few days, Ma Xianhong would not be able to create a new cultivation furnace.

Hearing this, Wang Ye understood Lin Yuan's meaning... That same night, the temporary workers and Chen Duo had already met, but because it was their first meeting, the temporary workers from various regions completely distrusted each other and lacked any tacit agreement.

Coupled with the many people Ma Xianhong had dispatched around Chen Duo, she ultimately managed to slip away.

At this moment, under a large tree, Zhang Chulan was roasting corn by a bonfire. He looked at the temporary workers around him. After spending some time together, Zhang Chulan had come to understand these people a little.

Although Old Meng was a middle-aged man, he was somewhat aloof.

Xiao Zizai was somewhat pathological, always believing he was sick.

There was also Black Tube, leaning against a tree, drinking his own sullen wine, looking world-weary.

Finally, there was Wang Zhenqiu, squatting next to him, constantly asking if the corn was roasted well!

In short, none of these temporary workers were simple; they all had their own agendas, and each one was an experienced Jianghu veteran.

How could a little lamb like him be a match for a group of old foxes?

Old Meng and Black Tube were fine; although very strong, they didn't pay too much attention to him and Feng Baobao.

But Xiao Zizai had a strong Killing Intent, and Zhang Chulan didn't dare to get close to him; he was completely unapproachable.

Wang Zhenqiu, despite his effeminate appearance, was extremely cunning and had deep schemes. If he were thrown into an ancient imperial harem, he could at least become a concubine.

Zhang Chulan couldn't escape his observation even for a moment. There was also a temporary worker from the Northeast who hadn't appeared yet, but she clearly perceived everyone's every move.

His second uncle, his second uncle, they were all his uncles!

As his phone rang, Zhang Chulan took it out, and then his pupils constricted slightly.

"Everyone! Look at the latest announcement from the company!"

Everyone heard Zhang Chulan's shout and took out their phones to check the message.

After discussion by the board of directors, the mission has been changed.

Primary objective: The task of capturing Chen Duo remains unchanged, and on-the-spot execution is permitted!

Secondary objective: Fully arrest Ma Xianhong, the village chief of Biyou Village, and a variety of Superior Roots, dismantle Biyou Village, and destroy the cultivation furnace... Below is the intelligence for the secondary target individuals.

Ma Xianhong: Village Chief of Biyou Village, leader of the New Jie Sect, inheritor of Divine Mechanism of a Hundred Refinements, one of the Eight Wonders. Extremely dangerous, attempting to mass-produce numerous Bizarre people using the cultivation furnace. On-the-spot execution is permitted!

Qiu Rang: One of the Superior Roots, taught Divine Mechanism of a Hundred Refinements by Ma Xianhong, one of the core members of the Superior Roots... Zhang Chulan frowned as he looked at the dense list of tasks.

So many!? How can they catch them all?

Thinking this, he immediately turned to look at the others.

Everyone present, except for Black Tube who looked indifferent, all seemed pensive.

"Brother Black Tube, did you already know about these things?"

"Hmm? Why do you ask?"

Black Tube put down his wine pot and glanced at Zhang Chulan.

Wang Zhenqiu directly leaned over and said in an exaggerated tone:

"Oh, Brother Guan, you don't know, but how could that Young Miss from East China behind you not know something? Her identity is terrifying."

"You are that Young Miss's capable subordinate. This mission is so strange; she must have told you something, right? Why don't you tell us?"

The surrounding temporary workers heard this and all turned to look at Black Tube.

Seeing their expectant gazes, Black Tube couldn't help but sigh a few times.

"I know very little, but I do know that this mission is not that simple, and it's even a bit sinister..."

"Perhaps to them, we are the group of heinous, murderous, arsonist villains."

Zhang Chulan scratched his head, somewhat confused.

"Brother Guan, could you please explain more clearly? I don't understand."

"Aren't we going to carry out the company's mission? How did we become villains?"

"I'm not well-educated, so don't trick me."

Old Meng also couldn't help but ask:

"Black Tube, stop playing coy. We're all in this together now. Just tell us."

Black Tube sighed.

"You should all know that headquarters is making us apprehend Chen Duo this time because she killed Liao Zhong."

"But what about Ma Xianhong?"

"Ma Xianhong is mass-producing Bizarre people in Biyou Village. To put it bluntly, in ancient times, this would be considered holding a private army."

"But, have you ever thought, from a legal perspective, can Ma Xianhong be convicted?"

"From a moral perspective, Ma Xianhong is only using this ability to help others and is not rebelling."

"So this matter is completely a dirty job!"

"In life, some become the Face, and some become the underbelly. It's all a matter of circumstance."

"The company is the Face, and the temporary workers are the underbelly... The Face is glamorous, while the underbelly cannot see the light."

Zhang Chulan nodded with a solemn expression. Today, he finally understood why the company recruited temporary workers.

Black Tube smiled, looking at the fledgling Zhang Chulan.

"The Face must be bright, and the underbelly must be ruthless. If the underbelly isn't strong, the Face will collapse."

"The company superficially claims to be for the peaceful development of Bizarre people, sounding so noble, but you shouldn't think too highly of them."

"How can black and white be so clearly divided?"
