Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Inside the Imperial Palace of Daqian lies a Dao Fruit, a Dao Fruit potent enough to help a strong practitioner in the Melt God Realm make significant progress.

How could Chen Jie not pay great attention to such a treasure? Just as he was supporting Liu Futong and their plan, Chen Jie was also implementing his own tiny plan.

The plan was thus set, and the next step was to execute it step by step.

Nothing was said throughout the night, and the next morning, Chen Jie secretly went to Vermilion Bird Street. Just as he entered the Commandery Princess’s courtyard, he noticed that the lake within seemed to have grown significantly. When Chen Jie reached the lakeside, he saw many wheel marks from small carts and fresh soil, presumably transported by people from the Thick Earth Flag who covertly brought this soil out and dumped it into the lake.

With these thoughts in mind, Chen Jie entered the house. As soon as he pushed open the door, two sharp weapons immediately thrust towards him. Startled, Chen Jie quickly dodged aside.

As he dodged aside, he simultaneously extended his hand to avoid the weapons wielded by these two people.

”It’s me.”

The two, shocked, were just about to raise an alarm when Chen Jie spoke. Pausing, they looked at Chen Jie and realized it was Dharma King Chen.

”Dharma King.”

Chen Jie then entered the room, closed the door, and said, ”No one discovered, right?”

Hearing this, the two immediately replied, ”No one, Dharma King, rest assured.”

Chen Jie nodded and said, ”This matter concerns the life and death of your Sect Hierarch, Little Ming King. There must not be the slightest negligence, understood?”

”Understood.”

The two continued to respond. As Chen Jie looked around the room, he saw that this originally spacious room was now filled with soil. However, a lot of soil had clearly been taken out. They could only transport soil at night, not during the day, because who knows if there’s a neighbor who likes to peek around.

Chen Jie looked at the soil piled high and asked the people beside him, ”How far have you dug?”

The two disciples of the Thick Earth Flag replied, ”We’ve already dug through the most challenging part of the moat. From here on, it’s much easier. Dharma King, rest assured, we’ll definitely reach the Imperial Palace by midnight tonight.”

Hearing this, Chen Jie nodded and said, ”Hmm, well done. This will be a significant achievement for you, and I’ll definitely ask your Venerable for merits on your behalf.”

”Thank you, Dharma King!”

The two members of the Thick Earth Flag quickly bowed with fists cupped. Chen Jie then looked at the soil in the room and asked, ”With so much soil here already, what will you do when it’s all piled up?”

Hearing this, someone from the Thick Earth Flag said, ”We plan to break through the two adjacent rooms.”

Chen Jie looked at the stone wall in front and said, ”With such a wall, smashing it might be too noisy.”

Upon hearing this, the two members of the Thick Earth Flag pointed at two wooden barrels not far away and said, ”This contains water in which Fossil Powder has been dissolved. Just pour it on the wall, and it’ll turn as soft as tofu dregs.”

”That’s incredible.”

Chen Jie was intrigued.

At this point, the two disciples from the Thick Earth Flag exchanged a glance, then poured two barrels of the solution onto the wall. Soon, white bubbles appeared on the wall, and the entire wall quickly turned brittle. With a shovel, the wall crumbled into fragments, and in no time, the entire wall was cleared away.

Upon witnessing this scene, Chen Jie’s eyes widened with amazement. If one calculates it this way, the flagstones under the Imperial Palace would probably not fare much better than this wall. Surely, breaking through the city wall tonight shouldn’t be too difficult a task.

Thinking of this, Chen Jie said to the two, ”Hmm, stay alert. If we succeed tonight, you’ll have the primary merit.”

”Yes, Dharma King.”

With that, Chen Jie left, looking at the cloud-covered sun outside, and said, ”It seems the Great Capital is about to get lively!”
