Ji Yueyao remained silent, seemingly lost in thought as she stared at the invitation. Yin Longyuan also seemed to think there was no need to say anything more, and got up and walked out of the house, not even glancing at Bai Yi or Lin Xuan.
Seeing Yin Longyuan swagger out, Ji Yueyao threw the invitation on the table.
"This guy is so arrogant!" Kachi said angrily as she brought out the prepared food from the kitchen and placed it on the table.
Looking at the steaming noodles in front of her, Ji Yueyao suddenly felt as if she had returned to a different world. It turns out that eating warm, soft noodles after eating too many compressed biscuits really is the happiest thing.
It must be said that although the Nanxiao base is chaotic, the grain yield in the part of the land near the Forbidden Forest is four times that of ordinary land. Although the reason is unknown, there is no doubt that the Nanxiao base does not lack food, at least the upper class does not lack food.
“Termite, Lin Xuan…you two should be able to sense Yin Longyuan’s supernatural energy fluctuations, right?” Ji Yueyao suddenly spoke up while biting her chopsticks.
Bai Yi and Lin Xuan nodded. Lin Xuan lowered his head, took a sip of soup, and sighed, "The feeling is very strong. It should be a rather powerful superpower. Captain, can't you feel it?"
“I can’t sense any of your supernatural abilities, but to me, you all give me a special feeling.” Ji Yueyao shook her head and leaned back in her chair. “Since you can sense Yin Longyuan’s supernatural abilities… then Yin Longyuan should be able to sense yours too, right? No matter how arrogant he is, he shouldn’t look down on supernatural beings like this, should he?”
"So obviously in his eyes, the captain can already fully represent us." Lin Xuan chuckled and scratched his head at Ji Yueyao.
"Perhaps... in his eyes, a few superhumans are no longer important." Termite finished his food in a few bites, glanced at Lin Xuan, and shrugged. "Their backer has arrived."
"Yin Longyuan's backer?" Ji Yueyao put down the book in her hand and looked at the termites with some interest.
"Captain, have you seen the latest intelligence Bar has gathered?" Termite quickly cleared away the dishes in front of him, then looked up at Ji Yueyao and asked softly.
"I haven't looked at it yet." She had a lot of messy things to deal with when she came, and she really didn't remember about this information.
"Hmm... Captain, you can take a look now. I estimate that the information Bar gave you this time is about Yoon Ryong-won."
Ji Yueyao nodded, got up and went back to her room to take out the intelligence she had brought from the bar. She then casually sat on the sofa and carefully read through it line by line.
When Ji Yueyao read Yin Longyuan's personal information, she looked up at Bai Yi with some confusion, "So Yin Longyuan and Wei Qin are both people in your military?"
“They are military personnel, but not our people,” Termite patiently explained. “Although Qin Lichang is a military person, he is in charge of the Northern Military Department, while the General is in charge of the Southern Military Department and various border jurisdictions. We and Qin Lichang’s people are irreconcilable enemies.”
Ji Yueyao seemed to understand. She thoughtfully propped her head up and looked at the termites, murmuring, "They're all part of the military, so why are they so divided internally?"
Bai Yi lowered his eyes, then sat up straight with a serious expression and said, "Strictly speaking, the general's position as military commander is not legitimate."
"Hmm?" Ji Yueyao frowned. "What do you mean?"
"The general is the son of Mu Lianhui, the most capable lieutenant general under the previous military commander, while Qin Lichang is the son of the previous military commander. In other words, according to blood relations, Qin Lichang should have been the next military commander."
Ji Yueyao didn't speak, but frowned slightly. Bai Yi paused for a moment and continued, "But after the general's mother, Xu Yazhi, had the general, she left Mu Lianhui and instead married the previous military commander, Qin Zhichuan."
Ji Yueyao raised an eyebrow, leaning on the table and asking hesitantly, "Then... is Qin Lichang Mu Yanxuan's half-brother?"
"No." Bai Yi shook her head, and Ji Yueyao sat back down. She was just thinking that it wasn't such a melodramatic drama after all, when Bai Yi's words shocked her.
"Qin Lichang is the older brother."
"..." Ji Yueyao was completely dumbfounded. What kind of twist was this?
Lin Xuan and Kaqi were also taken aback, never expecting that Mu Yanxuan, who was like a god in their eyes, had such a background.
"When Qin Zhichuan suddenly had a boy by his side, everyone thought it was the child of a woman he favored at the time. But later, after Xu Yazhi married Qin Zhichuan, he suddenly killed the woman he loved most and then announced to everyone that Qin Lichang was his child with Xu Yazhi."
"If that's the case... why did Mu Yanxuan become the current military commander?" Ji Yueyao asked, puzzled. Logically speaking, although Mu Yanxuan and Qin Lichang were half-brothers, no man should be able to tolerate his woman being with another man. Xu Yazhi not only continued to be with Mu Lianhui after being with Qin Lichang, but also had Mu Yanxuan... No matter what, Ji Yueyao felt that if she were Qin Zhichuan, she would absolutely not tolerate Mu Yanxuan's existence, let alone let him take over as the military commander.
Bai Yi stared straight at Ji Yueyao, and finally said in a low voice, "The effort that you put in, sir, is absolutely beyond your imagination."
Ji Yueyao paused for a moment, then stopped asking questions. Mu Yanxuan became the highest commander of the military region at the age of seventeen. Ji Yueyao couldn't imagine what he had gone through in those seventeen years. She only knew that these things could not be accomplished without sacrifice.
Mu Yanxuan... Ji Yueyao thought of that guy who liked to rub against her, and suddenly felt a strange feeling welling up in her heart.
Sympathy? No, it's more like...
"Captain?" Termite called softly, interrupting Ji Yueyao's thoughts.
Ji Yueyao looked up at the termites Mu Yanxuan had left for her, her gaze somewhat dazed, "Then... why is Mu Yanxuan so fixated on the supreme position of military region commander?"
"Well..." Termite winked awkwardly, "Captain, you'd better ask the master yourself."
"Oh." Ji Yueyao nodded, as if she was just asking and didn't intend to delve deeper. Looking down at the document in her hand, she continued, "Let's continue with Yin Longyuan's matter... Yin Longyuan is Qin Lichang's man, which means he is Mu Yanxuan's enemy."
"Hmm." The termite nodded in agreement.
Ji Yueyao continued looking at the documents in her hand, "Just a few days ago, Yin Longyuan and Xia Yaoxuan, the leader of the Black race, made a clandestine oil deal..."
“Originally, Xia Yaoxuan didn’t intend to do business with Yin Longyuan. It was only after the adults forced him to cooperate that Xia Yaoxuan decided to supply Yin Longyuan with large quantities of oil.” The white ant sneered. “This Xia Yaoxuan is overestimating himself; he’s clearly going against the adults…”
"Xia Yaoxuan?!" Ji Yueyao's startled cry interrupted Bai Yi, who looked up in confusion and asked, "Captain, is there something wrong with Xia Yaoxuan?" (To be continued.)
