Chapter 689 Seeking Asylum at the Embassy
Huang Benchu was about to speak with a wide grin when Cao Erdan interrupted him:
"He was lucky to kill the Yin-Yang Poison Flower sisters."
After returning, Cao Erdan learned about the origins of the Eight Vajras from Liao Kai.
Although it wasn't explained how Huang Benchu killed the Yin Yang Poison Flower sisters, Su Yi knew their character.
He looked at Huang Benchu and shook his head.
He never dreamed that Huang Benchu would kill the Yin Yang Poison Flower.
Cao Erdan changed the subject, talking about the realm of the Jade-Faced Yama.
He also said that he used the Dragon Realm Tower as cover to kill her unexpectedly.
Su Yi was quite surprised, never expecting that even a minor palace master of the God and Demon Palace had already entered the Heavenly Realm.
Sending Cao Erdan alone this time was truly reckless.
Fortunately, Cao Erdan was blessed with good fortune and a long life.
If the other side had attacked him from the start and hadn't underestimated him, they might be holding a memorial service for Cao Erdan right now!
After Cao Erdan finished speaking, Su Yi patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.
He felt comforted by the fact that he had promoted Cao Erdan to be his successor.
I wasn't wrong about him; this young man is not only highly skilled, but also very lucky!
When Huang Benchu saw that Cao Erdan wouldn't let him speak, he paced anxiously in circles.
Finally, I asked:
"Grandpa, I killed two witches, shouldn't I get some kind of reward?"
Su Yi smiled at him, and at this moment he no longer felt that he was so annoying.
As the saying goes, appearance comes from the heart.
At first, I thought he was just Cao Erdan's lackey, only good at flattering and bootlicking.
Now that they see this old guy isn't just eating for nothing, their attitude towards him has naturally changed.
When asked, "What reward do you want?"
Huang Benchu was about to speak when Cao Erdan was so frightened he almost grabbed him.
Knowing the old man is a womanizer, don't say anything shameful like "The old man gave me two daughters!"
But no, Huang Benchu said, "I also want to enter the Imperial Gate. I don't want to be a high-ranking official, just give me a hall master, captain, or governor or something!"
Huang Benchu felt envious when he saw the respect the arrest team showed to the Royal Gate personnel.
I thought to myself, if I go out and find a girl or something in the future, who would dare to check up on me?
Look at Cao Erdan, he didn't even need to get up on Mo Bifeng, he just threw out a sign and the arrest team backed away.
Su Yi laughed and said, "The Royal Gate recruits people through a rigorous selection process. It's good that you want to join the Royal Gate and have the ambition, but you still have to pass the test! If you can, you don't need to tell me, Erdan will nod and you can enter the Royal Gate!"
This is true.
Cao Erdan is now the second-in-command of the Imperial Gate, on par with Liao Kai.
Moreover, he is Su Yi's successor, and in a sense, his status is still higher than Liao Kai's!
Upon hearing this, Huang Benchu immediately clasped his hands in a fist and bowed to Cao Erdan:
"Director Cao, you are my master, this matter is settled!"
Cao Erdan kicked him: "Get out of the way! What are you making decisions about! Didn't you hear General Su say that everything must be reviewed and tested? You're still in the probationary period!"
"what?"
Huang Benchu scratched his head and immediately understood what Cao Erdan meant.
Since it's a test, it means there's still hope for me.
Since Su Yi gave power to Cao Erdan, it meant he didn't object to Su Yi entering the palace.
Erdan is his master, so of course he can't just say he'll hire him.
That old guy isn't stupid.
He immediately sat down without saying a word.
He sat quietly to the side and listened to Cao Erdan and Su Yi chat.
Su Yi still looked at Cao Erdan with a gratified expression:
"You've really grown a lot since you killed Yu Mingnu this time."
No matter what method you use, being able to kill a Celestial Realm expert is a skill.
Even if you have many magical treasures, if your abilities are insufficient, you still cannot harm someone who has entered the Heavenly Realm.
"Next, you will continue your training; you should be close to reaching the Heavenly Realm!"
Then, the old man looked at Mo Bifeng, who had remained silent to the side.
Under Su Yi's gaze, Mo Bifeng dared not meet his eyes and lowered her head.
Su Yi laughed and said, "Your husband, Yu Aolong, doesn't have a good reputation. Moreover, you are guilty of letting your son commit violence. This time, you've also entered the Temple of Gods and Demons. According to the rules, your crimes are unforgivable."
Mo Bifeng immediately tensed up.
He glanced at Cao Erdan discreetly.
But Su Yi changed the subject:
"However, your assistance to Erdan in defeating this powerful enemy is a remarkable achievement, and the Imperial Family will not pursue your past mistakes!"
Mo Bifeng quickly stood up and bowed to Su Yi:
"Thank you for your magnanimity, General!"
"Ok!"
Su Yi stroked his beard and looked at Yu Lang'er.
Mo Bifeng's heart was in her throat.
Everyone says their son is a little devil who eats human flesh and drinks human blood.
Will the old man hurt his son?
Mo Bifeng looked at Cao Erdan with pleading eyes.
Cao Erdan smiled and nodded at her, indicating that she didn't need to be nervous.
Cao Erdan was confident.
The Imperial Palace is currently in need of personnel.
He considered himself Su Yi's successor and the future pillar of the family.
Su Yi would never make things difficult for anyone he trusted.
Sure enough, Su Yi asked Cao Erdan:
"Can this child's illness be cured? If it can, he could be a promising talent!"
Indeed, at such a young age, Yu Lang'er's cultivation has already reached the initial stage of the Divine Realm.
If we can help him recover, he will have a bright future.
However, since he is now a demonic cultivator, it will not be easy to completely cure him.
Cao Erdan nodded and said, "I will do my best. I will give him acupuncture in a little while to clear the blocked blood vessels. Then I will administer medicine to treat his physical and mental illnesses."
Mo Bifeng quickly bowed and thanked her.
……
Let's talk about Zhao Jingyu.
They slipped into the Japanese embassy on the Third Ring Road in Beijing.
But I still couldn't let go of my worries.
After all, this is still territory within the influence of the royal family.
Ambassador Sakamura, however, seemed unconvinced.
Touching his toothbrush-like mustache, he laughed:
"Zhao Sang, don't be afraid! I will use my methods to send you out! Back to the borders of Ying Kingdom, and continue to serve the Emperor!"
Zhao Jingyu said worriedly:
"But I can't rest easy if I don't leave!"
"Hahaha, coward, what are you worried about? Does the Imperial Guard dare to come to my embassy to arrest people? I'll give them the guts!"
Seeing how confident Sakamura was, Zhao Jingyu felt a little relieved.
Then, anxiously, she said, "But I can't stay in this yard forever; it would be best if I could leave as soon as possible!"
Liang Xu entered at that moment.
He reported to Zhao Jingyu: "Boss, I saw a Royal Gate car parked across the street. They must know we're here!"
Zhao Jingyu quickly looked at Sakamura:
"Mr. Sakamura, what should we do? We can't get out!"
Sakamura waved his hand: "Don't panic, I've already called a friend of mine. As long as he takes you away, the Imperial Gate won't dare to stop you."
Just then, a servant came in to report:
"Mr. Sakamura, Mr. Daniel has arrived."
"please come in!"
A short while later, a burly Western man with blond hair, blue eyes, and a yellow beard entered.
Sakamura introduced Zhao Jingyu to:
"This is Captain Daniel. He is a merchant from the Sunset Empire and also has trade relations with our Ying Kingdom. His ship is in Junmen Harbor, and it will take less than two hours to reach Shangjing."
Zhao Jingyu smiled apologetically and shook hands with Daniel.
Still worried, he said, "But what if there are any unexpected events along this stretch of road?"
Daniel already knew about Zhao Jingyu.
At this moment, he arrogantly said, "I have a pass and the right to be exempt from inspection. Your Dragon Kingdom will not dare to be rude to me."
Zhao Jingyu nodded and bowed, "Yes, the Sunset Empire is a world power, and we should respect it!"
Just then, a commotion broke out outside.
An embassy attendant ran in:
"It's terrible! People from the Dragon Kingdom's royal family have broken in!"
Sakamura was furious: "What? Don't they know any manners?"
