"Alright, just let it go. After all, this isn't our demon realm's territory. If you've lost out, you've lost out. There's nothing you can do about it."

Yue Jiu Nian tried to persuade Qi You, saying, "Besides, hiring an assassin isn't very reliable to begin with. Can you really trust assassins from Border City?"

"Sigh~ Oh well, now that Qingcheng has agreed to send me troops, I don't need to beg them anymore. I'll just consider it a loss of money~ By the way, how many people did Qingcheng send in? Have they all come in yet?"

Fortunately, General Lynx said he had brought troops, so Qiyou wasn't so depressed anymore.

Neither General Lynx nor Yue Jiunian intended to conceal the number of Qi You's troops, so they told him the truth: "Three hundred. More than a hundred have already entered, and I believe they will all be able to enter by tonight."

"Three hundred, that's a lot. By the way, you must be careful when you come in, don't get discovered."

Qi You was quite pleased to learn of the number. He said, "That's great. Qingcheng must have given me the best elite soldiers. This will give us a better chance of killing Tanlang."

"That's right, all three hundred are elite soldiers, you guessed correctly."

General Lynx smiled, but he still looked worried and said, "But Chief Qiyou, we have brought elite troops, but Tanlang and his group probably have quite a few experts as well. Shouldn't we plan our plan to kill Tanlang better?"

Upon hearing General Lynx's words, Yue Jiu Nian immediately echoed, "Yes, that's right. And that two-headed water dragon is no ordinary creature either. He was beaten up by Lord Hong Yan before, but he seemed to be in a weakened state at that time. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to rescue Qingcheng so easily."

"Of course I know that, but I've also inquired about it. I heard that after Tanlang and the Double-Headed Water Dragon surrendered to the Demon Realm, they weren't very well taken care of. They came to the Border City this time because the Demon King sent them to subdue this place. This shows that they are not liked by the Demon Realm and are being used as pawns."

Qi You shared all the information he had gathered, adding, "I suspect that the people accompanying Tan Lang this time are mostly his former subordinates. The Demon Realm probably won't send him many troops, so you don't need to worry too much. Once Tan Lang enters the border city, I'll handle him. Just be careful of that two-headed water dragon."

"Alright, but we still need to make a plan. If the assassination fails when we enter the city, it will be even more difficult for us to carry out the assassination."

Yue Jiu Nian was still a little worried that this plan would fail. After all, this was not the demon realm, and she was not causing trouble on her own territory. She still felt uneasy.

Qi You knew what Yue Jiu Nian was worried about, so she said, "That's fine too. We can make a thorough plan first, just in case."

"Alright, tell us your plan first, and the general and I will add to it as needed."

The rabbit spirit Rou Rou had been listening to them talk for a while, and getting a little bored, she said, "Aren't you tired after chatting for so long? Why don't I go get you something to eat?"

Rou Rou finished speaking and went out. She was actually hungry when she came back, but since everyone was talking about serious matters, she didn't want to disturb them. Now that she felt that things were almost settled, she decided to go out and find something to eat.

Inside the woods, there was a small vegetable garden and a small pond, where Rou Rou grew all sorts of vegetables, carrots, and even raised some fish.

Rou Rou went into the vegetable garden, picked a lot of vegetables and selected a few plump fresh fish before going out. Then she hummed a little tune as she prepared to cook.

Because Yue Jiu Nian and Qi You have been living and eating here recently, Rou Rou has to cook meat dishes instead of just vegetables and carrots. Otherwise, Yue Jiu Nian and Qi You would probably go crazy eating only green vegetables and carrots.

"Rou Rou~ What are we having for dinner tonight? Is it fish?"

Just as Rou Rou was about to kill the fish, she heard someone calling her. She turned around and saw that it was Yue Jiu Nian.

"Sister Jiu Nian, weren't you discussing business? Why did you come out?"

While talking to Yue Jiu Nian, Rou Rou quickly disposed of a fish with a swift motion of her knife.

"Well, we've almost finished planning, so I came out to see you. Do you need any help with the cooking? We have a lot of people today~"

Yue Jiu Nian picked up the carrot next to her, washed it with water, and said.
