Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2093: Chapter 218: Rich! Scheming “Little Shou Zhe” (Part 3)

“Your Highness, come closer.”

Wang Fugui beckoned Yun Xiayang over and then whispered a few things furtively.

In no time, Yun Xiayang’s huge eyes, like those of an ox, widened as he exclaimed, “Is that even possible?”

“It is.”

Wang Fugui nodded firmly.

Then, he quietly shared some more details.

“Good, good, what a clever plan. This way, regaining the Demonic God power is within reach~” Yun Xiayang was exhilarated, as if he already saw himself achieving the Demonic God status and dominating the world.

However, after a moment of daydreaming, he suddenly realized something and glanced at Wang Fugui with worry, “But, you rascal, you’re so devious, cunning, and you have a habit of squeezing people dry. I’m starting to get worried about my dear Mengyu…”

“…”

Wang Fugui gave him a deep look.

Yun Xiayang shivered instantly, feeling a sense of impending doom, hastily changing the topic: “Alright, alright~ I admit, I was just joking with you.”

Right then,

Jiang Qinglian’s voice suddenly came from outside: “Young Master, the shopkeeper of the Duobao Pavilion Branch in Base Three has sent an invitation. He says that the last time you visited the Duobao Pavilion, Madam Shuanghua happened to be out, so you didn’t buy anything you liked.”

“Madam Shuanghua apologizes and has decided to offer the branch’s finest treasures for you to appraise or purchase, all at a twenty percent discount.”

“Treasures from the bottom of the chest?” Wang Fugui narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “Seems like it’s worth a trip.”

Upon hearing this, Yun Xiayang felt as if granted an amnesty, quickly seizing the opportunity: “Fugui, you go ahead with your business, I’ll go ahead and execute our plan first.”

With that, he transformed into a dark red light and disappeared in a flash, evidently eager to enact his scheme against the Yincha Demonic God.

…

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

On the edge of the East Line Defense Zone, near Base Three, stands a massive fortress, towering high like the most diligent guard, defending the entrance and exit.

Gray-black demonic evil energy swirls around it, enhancing its imposing presence, intimidating all who gaze upon it.

Although the front lines are engulfed in fierce battle, the fortress faces Base Three and is a fair distance from the front lines, so it remains unaffected by the war.

On this day,

The blood moon had just risen from the horizon when a flying carriage discreetly departed from the fortress, heading straight for Base Three.

The flying carriage was quite ordinary in appearance, indistinguishable from those commonly used by the military.

Inside the carriage, however, sat four exquisitely dressed, extraordinary young people.

Among the four, two men had an impressive demeanor, appearing as genteel young gentlemen, though one had a slightly round face and the other seemed a bit carefree.

The two girls, however, differed in size, with the larger one wearing an elegant princess gown, possessing bright eyes and a beautiful appearance. The smaller girl, a mere five or six years old, wore a delicately crafted princess dress and was as adorable as a doll.

Needless to say, these two girls were none other than Yun Mengyu and Princess Zhao Yu.

As for the two young gentlemen, the one with the slightly round face was naturally Wang Fugui, and the other was none other than the Third Prince, Shentu Jingming.

At this moment, Wang Fugui, Yun Mengyu, and Princess Zhao Yu were all glaring at Shentu Jingming in a manner resembling a tribunal.

“Why are you all looking at me like that?” The Third Prince said, looking innocent.

“We’re going shopping and having fun,” Yun Mengyu stared at the Third Prince, her delicate and pretty face openly displaying her displeasure, “Why are you tagging along?”

Over the years, Yun Mengyu had grown into a young and graceful lady, with a graceful figure and exquisite features, exuding youthful vitality with every move she made.

“I’m just bored,” the Third Prince said, “The Red Tiger Battle Group I brought has been deployed to the front lines, even Ruobing is busy. Is it too cruel for you to leave me alone at the East Line Defense Zone? I want to go shopping too.”

“Third brother!” Princess Zhao Yu pouted in exasperation, “We’re a bunch of youngsters going out shopping, what are you doing tagging along, you old geezer?”

“I’m not that old! I’m not even three hundred yet…” The Third Prince retorted indignantly, “I’m a young person too, okay?”

“How dare you say that? The three of us add up to just over forty, not even the fraction of your age. Do you think it’s fun hanging out with us?” Yun Mengyu frowned, full of disdain, “Aren’t you too old to hang out with us, doesn’t it create some sort of gap or discomfort for you? Plus, Sister Ruobing went to the front lines for merit, why can’t you go fight an enemy or two?”

“My future path is to become a Wise Emperor, mastering the big picture and grand strategy. Fighting isn’t suitable for me.” The Third Prince said matter-of-factly.

Upon hearing this, Princess Zhao Yu and Yun Mengyu both cast unmasked derisive and contemptuous looks at him.

How thick-skinned must someone be to say such shameless words without a change in expression?

However, the Third Prince was known for his thick skin. Even though he was looked down upon, he remained firmly settled on the carriage, unwilling to move, and instead, started chatting with Fugui: “Fugui, have you heard? Recently, the Little Demon Sovereign has taken advantage of us holding back the main Demonic Clan forces to sneak attack their rear and made a huge contribution.”
