As a fake half-demon, Yue Jiuling feels that living in the human realm is actually pretty good. However, this is only true if she can retrieve her original body and separated soul. There's no c...
"Hmm, it's alright. After all, delivering information is your job. Okay, you can go back now, but be careful."
"Yes."
Yang Da quickly left the street, while Yue Jiu Nian opened the note in her hand again. The note read: "Greedy Wolf will arrive on time tomorrow."
"Tsk~ Tomorrow, the entire army of Qingcheng might not be able to enter by tomorrow. Qiyou is also impulsive. I dare not let him assassinate Tanlang tomorrow. Even if I hire an assassin, it won't work. The assassins of the border city, tsk~ sigh~ it's hard to say."
That's right, the note Qi You received today was fake. It was actually forged by Yue Jiu Nian, while the real note is in Yue Jiu Nian's hands.
She got the real information from Yang Da before Qi You did, and then forged a fake one for Yang Da to give to Qi You. Her goal was to prevent Qi You from assassinating Tan Lang tomorrow, because it was too dangerous.
When the time was almost up, Yue Jiu Nian came out of the street. She crushed the note in her hand into powder and rushed to Rou Rou's house, wanting to get back before Qi You and the other two returned.
But as soon as Yue Jiu Nian returned to the woods, she saw several people waiting for her near Rou Rou's house.
"Miss Yue~"
As soon as General Lynx saw Yue Jiu Nian, he greeted her, and Yue Jiu Nian responded with a smile: "You guys are pretty quick. How long have you been waiting? How many people have entered from the border city?"
Because she was already acquainted with General Lynx, Yue Jiunian simply opened the door and let everyone in.
General Lynx entered the house and said, "Because too many people cannot come in, the king sent us three hundred elite soldiers. Now there are more than a hundred people in the city, all of them disguised."
"Over a hundred?"
Yue Jiu Nian was slightly surprised when she heard the news, because she did not expect so many people to come in in just one morning. If this speed continued, then they would definitely be able to come in tonight.
"It's already so fast. Oh dear, if I had known it would be so fast, I wouldn't have blocked Qiyou's messages."
Yue Jiu Nian suddenly said with a hint of regret.
General Lynx, who was standing nearby, overheard Yue Jiu's words and asked, puzzled, "Hmm? What information?"
"Oh, it's the information that Tanlang has arrived at the border city. Qingcheng told me that in order to prevent Qiyou from doing something stupid and acting impulsively, she asked me to find a way to intercept Tanlang's information and then tell him the accurate information when you arrive. I just didn't expect you to come in so quickly."
Yue Jiu Nian suddenly began to regret intercepting and forging Qi You's note, because if the army entered the border city at this speed, they would definitely be able to assassinate Tan Lang tomorrow.
She simply hadn't anticipated the army's rapid advance into the city, which is why she intercepted and forged Qi You's note.
"Oh, I see. You gave Qiyou a fake date? What was that date?"
General Lynx now understands.
Yue Jiu said, "Actually, the time difference isn't that much. I thought you should be able to come in soon, so I changed tomorrow to the day after tomorrow."
"I see. So that means Greedy Wolf will enter the city tomorrow?"
"That's right, he'll be coming in tomorrow."
Yue Jiu Nian looked at General Lynx with some distress and said, "What should we do? Qi You even went to hire an assassin himself. He went to find the assassin to change the time as soon as he saw that it had been changed. I don't know if he can change it."
"Finding an assassin? To be honest, assassins in Border City are hard to say. In other places, they'd be easier to talk to, but here..."
General Lynx also felt that Qiyou's plan to find an assassin to change the time was a bit risky, because there weren't many assassins in the border city, and the place was usually chaotic. Plus, they were busy, so they probably wouldn't be able to negotiate terms easily.
"Sigh, forget about it for now. At worst, Qiyou will just lose some money. Anyway, not all of your troops have entered yet, and nothing is certain yet."
Yue Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Besides, we don't know how many people Tanlang and his group will bring in tomorrow. They're also here for the border city, so I guess they'll bring quite a few people, right?"
General Lynx nodded and said, "Yes, that's right, and there are also two-headed water dragons. They're not simple creatures; we need to be careful."
