CHAPTER 318: Huang jian (1)

"Master, the devil's army has grown so much these years. We fought countless battles in our missions and our mercenary team is now climbing the rankings speedily unseen in the hundred years. If we were given a few more years we would be unmatched in this realm." mo ling said passionately.

"well done mo ling, I have seen it" yu yue smiled knowingly, given her style of training even if they're trash they won't remain ordinary after a few years.

"hehehe, ofcourse those guys would be beaten to death by me if they lag behind" she cracked her knuckles loudly, her crazy side couldn't be disguised just by talking about fighting.

"alright, how about the liu clan hong mei?" yu yue changed the topic before things get out of hands.

"we already know the ins and outs of the liu clan, but we still can't track the force behind them. The death fog cultivators are indeed related to them but not directly, we only know that they are following the orders of the so called shadow lord. That person hasn't made any public appearance yet." Hong mei replied seriously.

"third miss, the investigation of the assasins organization also points the same direction towards the shadow lord" yu ling spoke at this time.

"hmm, that's complicated and suspicious. Have you tried investigating the situation in the imperial palace? you might find surprises" yu yue suggested thoughtfully, unbeknownst to her that her intuition would lead her to something bigger.

"we investigated the crown prince as his relation to the first miss incident but we're still working on it as we also lack man power so I did something without the master's permission" he explained honestly.

"what did you do without my knowledge?" yu yue was curious, hong mei never did something against her orders. If so it would only be something good for her.

"I took away people from random brothels around the city, it was successful but I encounter some nuisance" he narrowed his eyes murderously.

"he means he made a lot of enemies for the master, the reason he was delayed with his investigations is because he's too busy dealing with those nuisance" wang ling pipes in delightfully as she flew towards hua ling's lap.

"who are they exactly?" yu yue curled her lips curiously.

"just the liu clan and the crown prince" he said carelessly, anyways they wouldn't dare fight against him openly because it would ruin their reputations to own a business such as the brothel. Though they keep sending people against him and it's getting on his nerves.

"oh, needs some help?" yu yue smiled, she never minds it. She knows those so called nuisance are truly difficult to deal with because hong mei never left a single fly go.

"I might need princess huang xin's assistance" hong mei smiled devilishly.

"Do you mind, huang xin?" yu yue asked knowing the answer already just base on her grin.

"you don't have to asked master, I was bored the entire way. I finally have the chance to play. hahaha" she laughed with a twisted expression giving others a shudder.

Yu yue sometimes wondered why did huang xin become a princess? she should become one of the maniacal trio. They all have a loose screw in their heads.

"sister, ahem master. Mother and I are also working hard; jade moon pavilion is now one of the most influential businesses in the capital." Shan shan also spoke of their accomplishment, after hua ling glanced at her she quickly changes her addressed and way of speaking to yu yue.
