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

”The translation is done!”

Chen Jie looked at Zhao Ya, who handed over a translated copy of the Ancient Lan Wisdom Scripture. Chen Jie glanced at it; Zhao Ya’s translation was very detailed, even noting some Buddhist terms with commentary below, fearing misunderstanding.

She explained how such Buddhist language should be understood.

Chen Jie perused it from beginning to end and gratefully said, ”Yaya, truly you’ve worked hard, with this Quran, I’m confident I can absorb this Dao Fruit.”

Zhao Ya replied, ”No need to thank me.”

After saying this, the two exchanged a glance, and Zhao Ya went to rest. Meanwhile, Wang Baobao wasn’t resting; he took a sum of money to find the most luxurious carriage nearby. Tomorrow, they must enter the city with great fanfare; the grander the spectacle, the fewer dare to stop them.

At this time in the Great Capital, Tuotuo and others arrived at the East City Gate, witnessing the ruinous scene and the words left behind by the retreating Zoroastrian Sect: ”Daqian shall perish! Tuotuo is useless.”

Seeing these words, Tuotuo was infuriated to the point of explosion; the surge of rage almost exploded the Three Corpse Gods within him. He ordered the great wooden gate bearing these eight words to be taken down.

Then, he had it burned to vent his anger.

The Deputy General reported, ”Lord, the East Gate has been checked; the Zoroastrian Sect has fully retreated!”

Hearing this, Tuotuo grew even angrier, snapping his horsewhip fiercely. The King Slaughter Conference he painstakingly researched had turned into a joke; now with the Little Ming King rescued, what’s the point of holding the King Slaughter Conference tomorrow!

Furthermore, this incident had offended today’s Emperor, making him feel like a mouse caught between two pressures.

Thinking of this, Tuotuo’s eyes burned crimson, as if he wanted to devour someone alive.

Seeing Tuotuo’s state, the Deputy General said, ”Lord, things are already like this, speaking further is unhelpful; we must devise a way to erase the matter, only then can we succeed.”

Reflecting on this, Tuotuo asked the Deputy General, ”Now it’s turned into a mess, tomorrow’s King Slaughter Conference is a laughingstock, what’s the strategy now?”

The Deputy General thought for a moment and said, ”Lord, why be so pessimistic, it’s just the Little Ming King being rescued, it’s not a big deal.”

Hearing this, Tuotuo looked at him and said, ”The Little Ming King being rescued isn’t a big deal, then what is a big deal?”

Seeing Tuotuo’s expression, the Deputy General said, ”Lord, concerning tomorrow’s King Slaughter Conference, how it’s conducted is the focus, as for the Little Ming King being lost, we can just replace him with another Little Ming King.”

”Replace the Little Ming King?”

Tuotuo furrowed his brow, confused, ”What do you mean?”

”My suggestion is, nobody knows what the Little Ming King looks like, we can pull someone similar in age from the Death Prison and execute them. Then claim we killed the Little Ming King; who can refute?”

”Hmm.”

Tuotuo’s eyes lit up at this idea, another Deputy General nearby said, ”What if the Zoroastrian Sect claims they saved the Little Ming King, saying we killed a fake, wouldn’t that disgrace us?”

Hearing this, the suggesting Deputy General chuckled, ”Ha-ha-ha, you say I killed a fake, do you have evidence? I could say their Little Ming King is fake.”

”I’ve heard, even within the Zoroastrian Sect, only certain high-level figures have seen him, the lower ranks, even squad leaders from various provinces haven’t seen him. Now we assert their Little Ming King is fake, ours is real.”

”Guess who people will believe?”

With this, the Deputy General hesitated for a moment then said, ”I think some will believe, some won’t.”

The suggesting Deputy General said, ”That’s enough, Lord, if tomorrow’s King Slaughter Conference doesn’t proceed, we all lose. If it does proceed, we lose half. What do you think, Lord, please advise.”

Hearing this, Tuotuo’s eyes shone a bit brighter, an interesting idea; not holding the conference is total loss, holding it is half loss, can it be held?

Moreover, the Deputy General is right, as long as the world’s opinion is dubious, it’s merely a public quarrel with the Zoroastrian Sect afterward.

At this point, fearing quarrels is redundant.

If they don’t hold the King Slaughter Conference tomorrow, wouldn’t that prove the Zoroastrian Sect truly rescued him?

So every smart person knows now is not the time to admit defeat, even if they persevere, they must persevere to the end!

Understanding these, Tuotuo said, ”Indeed, the Little Ming King was not rescued by the Zoroastrian Sect, the King Slaughter Conference will proceed tomorrow. I’m determined to kill the Little Ming King!”

Hearing this, the subordinates quickly agreed, ”Yes.”

Tuotuo regained composure, turned to the Deputy General beside him, ”Hmm, you did well in this matter, I will reward you generously.”

”Thank you, Lord.”

The Deputy General was pleased, but Tuotuo slightly frowned, although the Little Ming King issue could be resolved, how to handle the Emperor remains troublesome, as does the challenging Ruyang King.

Tuotuo felt overwhelmed, then asked, ”Right, how’s the situation with the Demon Slayer Monk?”

Hearing Tuotuo’s words, the Deputy General replied, ”A flying pigeon message has been sent, instructing the Demon Slayer Monk to eliminate Hama.”

”Is there any news back?”

The Deputy General said, ”No.”

Hearing this, Tuotuo said, ”Hmm, closely monitor correspondence from the Demon Slayer Monk, Hama absolutely cannot return to the capital alive.”

The Deputy General asked, ”Lord, if the Demon Slayer Monk fails, what then?”
