"Not just knives, but also sacks and big sticks are all ready!" Hao Yan shouted smugly, waving his hand to shake a bunch of thick, shaving-smooth sticks, sacks, and wood-chopping knives off the ground from his storage ring.
Ji Fengyao: "..."
Others: "..."
He may say he's simple-minded, but he understands everything when it matters.
He's not stupid...
Look at all the silly things he's done:
The "sharpening a knife" analogy is just a metaphor.
This guy is something else; he even brought sticks, sacks, and a machete.
Why would cultivators need such things when fighting? Do they really think they're just ordinary bandits?
In a flash, Hao Yan waved his hand and put the things away again, chuckling foolishly, "Miss, and everyone else, I've prepared a set for each of you. I'll distribute them to you after we start working, otherwise it might be too late to distribute them now."
Before anyone could even roll their eyes in response, the others had already done so.
Dong Dan Shuiyue and Dong Dan Motong have already arrived with a large convoy of vehicles and hundreds of He family members.
Lu Yang, disguised as the contact person at the Dongdan family outpost, calmly stepped forward, mimicking the man's mannerisms perfectly. He greeted Dongdan Shuiyue with outward respect but inward arrogance, saying, "Miss Shuiyue, are these the items that are to be transported back to Yanjing?"
"Yes, thank you for your help on the rest of the journey," Dongdan Shuiyue replied politely, maintaining a masterly demeanor.
"It's my duty, I should do it." Lu Yang glanced at the convoy, then looked deeply at Dong Dan Shuiyue, and said half-seriously, "Perhaps because of the young master's matter, the supplies handed over seem to be less."
They had already found out how much cargo the Dongdan family had this time before Dongdan Shuiyue even set off.
Just now, Ji Fengyao noticed something was wrong at a glance, and deliberately used her divine sense to have Lu Yang say this.
After all, they had only been in contact with the people at the Dongdan family outpost for about an hour. Although they had searched the souls of the key people, they were still afraid of leaving any clues that might arouse Dongdan Shuiyue's suspicion.
However, if someone were to deliberately touch upon Dongdan Shuiyue's sore spot, given her competitive nature, she would definitely become angry.
Anger can impair a person's ability to make normal judgments and make their pretense more perfect and undetectable.
really.
As soon as Lu Yang spoke, Dong Dan Shuiyue and Dong Dan Motong's expressions changed.
"Seventh Uncle, it's one thing for you to act tough in front of us, we can respectfully call you Seventh Uncle because of your cultivation level; but Miss is the legitimate daughter of the Dongdan family, her talent is not much worse than the young master's, and her future is limitless. You should consider your own status before interfering in Miss's affairs." Dongdan Motong, like a loyal dog, immediately stood up and barked wildly at Lu Yang.
Lu Yang gave a cold and contemptuous laugh and said, "It was just a casual remark. If you don't like it, then don't say it."
After saying that, Lu Yang waved to the others, including Ji Fengyao, and said, "You go over there and take over the location of the person that Miss Shuiyue is supposed to bring back. We'll set off immediately."
"Yes, Seventh Uncle!"
Ji Fengyao, An Zijin, and the others readily agreed and dispersed to fill the positions vacated by the He family members.
Dongdan Shuiyue glanced at Lu Yang with a gloomy look, then silently gave Dongdan Motong a look and said through telepathy, "Even though he's one of us, we still have to be careful. After all, he's not on the same page as our branch."
"I understand, Miss. Even if I die, I will never let anyone know about the existence of the storage ring," Dongdan said silently.
