Xiao Zhixing stroked his chin, examining the two unconscious men, and considered how to make good use of them.
After thinking for a few minutes, she said to Bai Feng, "Didn't you say last time that some of the Phoenix inheritance had been awakened, and one of them could probe the deepest secrets and desires in people's hearts, right?"
Bai Feng understood immediately, "You can think of it as mind reading, but it can only probe some of their deepest thoughts."
To find out more details, one must use the Soul Searching Technique.
"That's enough. Go and check them out."
It's such a waste to kill someone so easily; we should at least make use of them.
Bai Feng immediately used her skills to investigate the two of them.
"Uh... they really are the same kind of people. They both want to inherit their father's rights..."
Bai Feng frowned and sensed carefully. "This Luo Cang is even more ruthless. He wants to kill the other brothers. He's jealous of Yelü Ge. Hmm? He seems to have discovered the existence of 170..."
"And Feng Mo, tsk, he actually covets his sister-in-law. He wants the power of the Feng family army, is jealous of his two older brothers, and hates Feng Lizhen for favoring his concubine over his wife..."
Feng Mo was actually the legitimate son, while his two older brothers were illegitimate sons. Feng Lizhen, like Feng Liyan, was harsh to his legitimate wife.
Bai Feng withdrew his skill, sweat beading on his forehead. "It's no use. My skill is still too shallow, and the Heavenly Dao in this dimension is suppressing things too much. I can only detect this much."
"It's ready." Xiao Zhixing looked at the two unconscious people, already having an idea in mind.
One person stuffed a poison pill into Luo Cang's mouth to wake him up.
Luo Cang reacted quickly. He instinctively felt like vomiting, and instantly became sober. "Ugh... who... who are you?"
Xiao Zhixing forced him to swallow, then sneered with Doctor Xue's face, "You don't need to know who I am, Young Master Luo. Do you want to replace Yelü Ge as the ruler of the Northern Frontier?"
Luo Cang froze, his eyes flickering. "I don't know what you're talking about."
"No one can keep a secret from me. Your heart tells me that you really want to. You only have one chance, Young Master Luo. You have no other choice but to either die immediately or follow your heart and agree to my proposal."
Luo Cang's eyes flickered violently as he stared at her, struggling with his emotions.
"I believe you have already guessed who I am. My lord greatly admires intelligent people. Of course, if you are determined to die, I am willing to grant your wish."
Luo Cang gritted his teeth. "What does she want? What can she give me?"
Xiao Zhixing sneered, "You have no right to bargain with my lord. A quick death or a slow death, you choose."
Luo Cang felt excruciating pain in his internal organs, his eyes bloodshot, "I agree!"
Xiao Zhixing was not surprised at all.
For these kinds of people, as long as you give them an excuse and a reason for their despicable thoughts, they will not refuse and will even brainwash themselves with self-righteousness, claiming that they are forced into this situation.
They might even be secretly pleased that they can finally put their ideas into practice.
He flicked a temporary relief pill at him, saying, "The antidote is given once a year. Within two years, you must gain a voice in the Northern Frontier. Our lord does not keep useless people."
As for providing help and support, there is none at the moment; it all depends on their future value. If their performance is excellent and their value increases, she will not be stingy with her help.
Xin Wu was sent away after being knocked unconscious again. Before leaving, Luo Cang tactfully told her about the sub-system host in Zhongzhou.
Luo Cang only said that the other party was Luo Wei's person, and naturally did not mention any subsystem.
Then they did the same thing again.
Xiao Zhixing also controlled Feng Mo, using threats, intimidation, and inducement to make Feng Mo agree to return as an inside agent and gain more power over the Feng family army.
She also set a trap for him, saying, "I promise you, as long as you perform well and satisfy my lord, I will definitely let you step into the Heavenly Realm in two years."
As expected, this bait made Feng Mo's breathing become heavier; deep down, he admired the strong.
The aura of Doctor Xue, a third-level Heavenly Rank physician, filled him with longing and envy.
As for how the two of them would keep it from Luo Wei and Feng Lizhen and prevent them from suspecting anything, that was their own business.
If they're discovered, so be it if they die; they're not her people anyway.
While Black Tiger was holding off the enemy at the camp, Xiao Zhixing and Bai Feng went to find the branch system host from Zhongzhou.
This man is Cheng Lang, the head of the Grand Canal Gang.
He was the one who provided the greatest assistance to Lowe and the Imperial System in their actions.
For example, he played an indispensable role in the clandestine transportation of those mineral deposits.
Cheng Lang is also a pivotal figure in the Emperor System's business empire.
Unfortunately, when Xiao Zhixing arrived, Cheng Lang had already moved, and he couldn't find him.
"Let Yin Yi look for him first; he'll find him sooner or later."
These kinds of famous people are the easiest to find.
Xiao Zhixing had no choice but to return, but she wasn't disappointed; she had anticipated this situation.
These people are born in the Year of the Rabbit; they are very vigilant and never stay in one place for long.
The news reached the northern frontier the night after they returned to camp.
At the same time, news also came that the plan had failed, and Xining Pass had once again withstood the attack from the northern frontier.
Forty thousand lives have been lost in the northern frontier, with no progress made, so a temporary ceasefire has to be imposed.
"Xiao Zhixing!!"
Lowe's face was grim. How could such a coincidence happen?
He wasn't surprised that Xiao Zhixing would find out about the Luo family, and he was even more certain that the other party would let go of the Luo family members who were unaware of the situation.
He had a clear plan: to use the information about Zhao Lin's background, which he had long since abandoned, to save the Luo family's life.
The only thing I didn't expect was that she had anticipated both sneak attacks.
He didn't believe it was an accident or a coincidence.
Yelü Ge coldly replied, "The people around us are not clean."
Lovi shook his head, "No, we anticipated that the Grand Gathering would discover them; it was part of the plan. What I didn't expect was that it was Xiao's army that discovered them."
