Chapter 134 Seen Through
Chapter 134 Seen Through
Lu Yun laughed loudly, his laughter was meaningful. Then, he asked in a half-smiley tone: "Master Duan, have you noticed that there is a gap between Gao Qiang and me, and you are sure that I will lend a hand, so you are so unscrupulous to contradict Gao Qiang?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Duan Tianyang's heart suddenly tightened. Lu Yun had pointed out his true feelings so accurately that he couldn't help but secretly exclaim "Shit!"
Unexpectedly, Lu Yun could see through his thoughts.
Lu Yun's eyes were like torches, as if he could see through people's hearts. He stared at Duan Tianyang and continued, "Gao Qiang is narrow-minded and has a prominent family. Sir Duan, you really shouldn't offend him easily."
Although Duan Tianyang was somewhat embarrassed by Lu Yun's words, he also knew that what Lu Yun said was true.
He nodded solemnly and promised: "Lord Lu is right. I was too careless. I will pay more attention in the future."
Although he felt uncomfortable having his thoughts seen through, Duan Tianyang still thanked him sincerely: "Thank you, Lord Lu, for recommending me to take over Yunzhong City!"
Lu Yun smiled and waved his hand to interrupt Duan Tianyang's thanks. He said in a deep voice: "No need to thank me. Cloud City is now like a mess. If you are not careful, you may fall into a desperate situation. Whether your future fate is good or bad depends on your own choices and efforts. The world of God's Domain is now turbulent, and rebels are everywhere. You must be more cautious and careful in the future."
Although Lu Yun's words were direct, they came from the bottom of his heart.
"Okay, let's end our topic here." Lu Yun looked at Duan Tianyang, then lowered his head to glance at the jade medal hanging on his waist and the gold medals on Guan Hu and others. He smiled lightly and said nothing more.
He walked to Lu Panpan, helped her onto the horse, then climbed on the horse himself. He bowed to Duan Tianyang again, turned his horse around and returned to the army.
Lu Panpan pursed her lower lip and stared at Duan Tianyang with burning eyes. After some inner hesitation and struggle, she finally mustered up the courage and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito: "Master Duan, if you have time, why not go to Xihui City for a visit."
Duan Tianyang responded with a gentle smile and promised: "There is a long way to go. I will definitely go when I have time."
Lu Panpan wanted to say a few more words, but was interrupted by Lu Yun's call.
She gave Duan Tianyang an affectionate look, then pulled the reins and galloped towards where Lu Yun was.
Lu Panpan's figure was getting farther and farther away, but she kept looking back, as if she was reluctant to leave.
Lu Yun witnessed all this and knew exactly what his sister was thinking.
Although Duan Tianyang has outstanding looks, his true value does not lie solely in his appearance.
Whether he is worthy of his sister depends on his own efforts and performance.
As Gao Qiang and Lu Yun left, Guan Hu and others smiled at each other and burst into warm cheers.
They surrounded Duan Tianyang, their faces filled with joy and excitement, and shouted excitedly: "Now Brother Tian is both the Lord of Yunzhong City and the Chief of the City Guards, which means we control two cities!"
Duan Tianyang was also filled with excitement. Occupying two cities would undoubtedly bring a huge opportunity for the expansion of their power.
Compared with Xiguan City, recruiting soldiers and buying horses in Yunzhong City will become more convenient, which undoubtedly provides extremely favorable conditions for their rapid growth in strength.
But he did not show his excitement on the surface, but said in a calm tone: "Didn't Lord Lu just say that the current situation in Yunzhong City is chaotic and it is not easy to govern."
He raised his head and signaled to everyone: "Let's go back to the city first."
After hearing this, Guan Hu asked curiously, "Brother Tian, when are we going to Yunzhong City?"
Compared with the harsh environment of Xiguan City, the conditions in Yunzhong City are undoubtedly more superior. There is no sandstorm and no need to worry about invasions by foreigners.
Duan Tianyang pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Before going to Yunzhong City, I want to solve one thing first."
Guan Hu couldn't help but ask curiously: "Brother Tian, what's the matter?"
Duan Tianyang took a deep breath and exhaled slowly: "The titanium mine of the Wild Wolf Tribe."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked and asked, "Brother Tian, are you going to take action against Sha Kun?"
Duan Tianyang's eyes flashed with a hint of deepness, and he slowly said: "The strength of the Wild Wolf Tribe is far beyond the reach of the Qinba Tribe. If we want to take action against Shakun, we must wait for a suitable opportunity."
Duan Tianyang did not return to the City Guard House, but went straight back to the small courtyard where he had lived before to check on the wounded left by Zhang Tao.
In the short time since he left, five people unfortunately passed away, but Lu Jingyuan and other disciples of the Shenjian Sect tenaciously overcame this difficulty.
When Duan Tianyang walked into the room, he saw military doctors bandaging the wounds of the wounded.
To his surprise, there was a woman in the room.
Duan Tianyang remembered that he had seen her briefly in a brothel on the street when he attended Su Wen's banquet with Guan Hu and Cao Ge.
Although it was only a brief encounter, Duan Tianyang had an excellent memory and recognized the woman immediately.
Seeing her assisting the military doctor in bandaging the wounds of the disciples of the Divine Arrow Sect in the house, Duan Tianyang couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Guan Hu and Gary Cao also showed surprised expressions.
Cao Ge was impressed by her and couldn't help asking, "You...you are not...why are you here?"
The woman did not even raise her eyes. Her hands kept moving as she carefully bandaged a young man's wound. She asked calmly, "Why can't I be here?"
Compared to her in the brothel a few days ago, she seemed to have been reborn.
Those extremely revealing clothes have been replaced with a simple blue shirt, her face has become cold and hard, and her eyes reveal an inviolable and murderous aura.
Gary Cao is not only the leader of the Hongxing Society, but also a centurion in the army. However, he is now directly refuted by this brothel girl, which makes him feel a little embarrassed.
He strode towards the woman, stretched out his hand to grab her shoulders, and shouted in a tough tone: "This is not a place for you to come, go away..."
He only said half of his words, and when he stretched out his hand, he only caught a ball of black mist, and the woman's figure disappeared without a trace.
An expression of surprise appeared on Cao Ge's face, and three words subconsciously emerged in his mind: Hidden Warrior!
He had just realized that the other party had used the Concealment Technique when suddenly a gust of evil wind blew from behind him and a strong airflow rushed towards him.
Cao Ge instinctively turned around and faced the oncoming fist. He was terrified and wanted to bend down to avoid it, but it was too late.
Just when he thought he was about to be hit hard, the fist suddenly stopped just an inch away from his nose.
Cao Ge looked carefully and found that Duan Tianyang had appeared beside the woman and grabbed her wrist tightly.
