Chapter 80: Going to the Meeting Alone
Ji Wuye was a powerful general of the Kingdom of Han. His residence was extremely large, like a small palace of the King of Han. Yang Chong was led through the corridors and walls, where he could occasionally see patrolling armored soldiers and busy maids and servants.
"What a beautiful mansion." Yang Chong said as he looked around.
Yang Chong also likes living in a big house.
"Only a mansion like this can be worthy of the great general's power." The maid who led Yang Chong said in a tender voice.
"Yes." Yang Chong nodded. Ji Wuye was indeed a man of great power in Korea.
"Sir, you will surely be successful in the future." The maid's eyes seemed to pass over Yang Chong inadvertently. Anyone who could be asked by the general with the word "please" was definitely not a simple person.
"Haha, I think so too." Yang Chong nodded.
Yang Chong's answer made the maid slightly stunned. As a maid beside Ji Wuye, she had seen many high-ranking officials in Korea. Those people were obviously arrogant, but they always liked to speak modestly. Yang Chong was just the opposite. His words obviously sounded arrogant, but she could not hear any arrogance in them.
"Sir, you are a very interesting person." After saying this, the maid lifted her skirt, walked up the steps in front of her, and pushed open the door in front of her.
This is an attic, built very high. If you stand on the top floor, you can see the whole Xinzheng except for several palaces of King Han. Although Ji Wuye is ugly, he is a very sentimental person and he only thinks about beautiful things.
"Please come in." The maid stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation.
Yang Chong walked in without hesitation and entered the attic in front of him.
As Yang Chong walked up one flight of stairs after another, he came to the top floor. A hall with simple and elegant decoration appeared in Yang Chong's sight. A man at the head was leaning on a woman's plump chest in an imageless manner. Another woman was helping to pour wine, and another woman was massaging his legs. Needless to say, there was only one person in the whole of Korea who could be so unrestrained here, and that was Ji Wuye.
"You are very brave. As a wanted criminal, you don't want to flee to another country, but dare to come to me. Do you think I can't do anything to you?" Ji Wuye said without raising his head.
"I don't think so. I just think I am still valuable to the general." Yang Chong said.
"Value, what is your value?" Ji Wuye sat up and looked at Yang Chong, who was very young and very powerful.
"I can help the general accomplish his great cause." Yang Chong said.
"I have already reached the highest position in the country. What great achievements can I make?" Ji Wuye asked back.
"Although it's very high here, it's still not higher than King Han's Palace." Yang Chong pointed to the world outside the window.
"You are very smart, but you should also know that smart people will die young." Ji Wuye threatened. He originally wanted to subdue Yang Chong, but now that Yang Chong took the initiative to come to him, he was a little dissatisfied.
"In troubled times, it is better to die like a human being than to live like a dog," said Yang Chong.
"I like what you said. Then just go and die like a human being." As Ji Wuye spoke, he had already drawn the sword beside him and slashed towards Yang Chong with the power of a great general of South Korea.
Facing Ji Wuye's sudden and powerful sword attack, Yang Chong raised his sword to block it. With the sound of metal clashing, no force was dissipated, but no one would doubt the power of this attack.
Ji Wuye used all his strength in this sword strike, but Yang Chong's sword was very steady. No matter how powerful his sword was, Yang Chong's sword remained motionless.
In just a moment, Yang Chong had already made a judgment on Ji Wuye's strength. He was indeed worthy of being the great general of Korea. He had cultivated both his external and internal skills to an extremely high level. His Ren and Du meridians were open, and he was in the process of transforming to the head level. However, his transformation process might take forever.
In terms of external skills alone, Yang Chong believed that his physical training based on the Golden Bell Cover was not inferior to Ji Wuye, but when it came to internal strength, Yang Chong was able to leave Ji Wuye behind. Of course, considering that Ji Wuye was also a veteran general with rich experience in battle, while Yang Chong had relatively little experience in this regard, all in all, the two of them were fighting fair and square, and the odds should be 60-40, with Yang Chong taking 60 and Ji Wuye taking 40. Of course, this was when Yang did not use the energy-absorbing technique.
While Yang Chong was analyzing Ji Wuye's strength, Ji Wuye was also analyzing Yang Chong's strength.
"His martial arts skills are not inferior to mine." Realizing this fact, Ji Wuye also retracted his sword. Of course, he was confident that he could still defeat Yang Chong. In a battle, it is not just about strength. It's just that he is not the man with the surname Gai.
"I wonder if the general is satisfied with my sword?" Yang Chong put away the Taia sword.
"Very good. At your age, you are already a gifted person to have such skills." Ji Wuye put away his sword. He had an estimate of Yang Chong's strength and became more and more certain of the plan in his mind.
"But how can you make me believe in your loyalty?" Ji Wuye sheathed his sword. Although he had some intention of trying to recruit Yang Chong, and Yang Chong's initiative saved him a lot of trouble, this was too simple and made him feel doubtful.
"In Korea, the only person I can be loyal to is the general." Yang Chong said.
"And the king." Ji Wuye said.
“The king is too tall, and I killed his men.”
Yang Chong's explanation was very simple, but Ji Wuye had already understood. In the current State of Han, there were only two people who could use Yang Chong, either King Han or Ji Wuye. Yang Di School Lieutenant Zhang Wu was King Han's man, but Yang Chong killed Zhang Wu. Therefore, only Ji Wuye dared to use Yang Chong and could use Yang Chong. Yang Chong had also been eyeing Ji Wuye's night for a long time.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Yang Chong planned to join Ji Wuye. As for why Yang Chong was not worried that Ji Wuye would turn against him, it was because Yang Chong had suffered a stroke and had to sleep outdoors for more than a year. It was not because he liked living close to nature, but because he now had enough strength to ensure that he could get out of here even if Ji Wuye turned against him.
"Yes, in the whole of Korea, I am the only one who can use you, and I am the only one who dares to use you." Ji Wuye laughed.
Ji Wuye was very satisfied with Yang Chong's answer. Looking at the whole of Korea, he was the number one person.
As for the previous plan, Ji Wuye had completely forgotten it at this moment. Compared with the face of King Han and Blood-Clothed Marquis Bai Yifei, the value that Yang Chong let him see was greater.
"I won't let the general down either." Yang Chong said.
"I'm not disappointed just to say it. I have solved the problem of the wanted warrant on you, but in return, you have to show me your ability." Ji Wuye said.
"Please give your instructions, General." Yang Chong said.
"It's very simple. Kill the left Sima Liu Yi within a month, and don't let anyone suspect me. When Liu Yi is killed, the wanted order on you will be removed." Ji Wuye said. Although Liu Yi was promoted by him and the Bloody Marquis in his early years, the relationship between the two has become very subtle since Liu Yi became the brother-in-law of Han Wangan. Liu Yi wants to please both sides, but Ji Wuye wants an obedient dog. More importantly, over the years, Ji Wuye has found some clues. The treasures of the Fire Rain Villa may have fallen into Liu Yi's hands. This is something Ji Wuye cannot tolerate.
But Liu Yi is the left Sima of Han after all. It is not easy for Ji Wuye to take down Liu Yi by using tricks, not only because of Liu Yi's own strength, but also because he has to consider the impact. Although he has the power to control everything in Han, he is not the King of Han after all. Moreover, although he wants to overthrow the ancestors of Han and usurp the throne of Han, what he wants is a complete Han, not a Han that is weakened by internal strife.
He couldn't kill all the ministers of Han just because they didn't listen to him. If he did that, even if he successfully usurped the throne of Han, who would help him govern Han?
If Yang Chong knew what Ji Wuye was thinking, he would definitely sneer at him. What era is it now? Why are you still dreaming of emulating the ancestors of the four families of Han, Zhao, Wei and Tian? The Qin State is about to attack us. By then...
"Left Sima Liu Yi?" Yang Chong was startled when he heard the name. He was not unfamiliar with this person.
"I only accept useful people." The change in Yang Chong's expression was seen as hesitation by Ji Wuye, so he gave an extra reminder.
"Killing Liu Yi is easy, but killing Liu Yi won't make people suspect the general, which is a problem." Yang Chong pondered.
"So only the best talents can accomplish this task." Ji Wuye now turned into a black-hearted boss. It was no wonder that top killers like Mo Ya and Bai Feng would choose to betray in the end. Ji Wuye was really not a good boss.
"Okay, I promise that the general will hear the news of Liu Yi's death within a month, and no one will associate it with the general." Yang Chong said.
"This general doesn't like jokes." Ji Wuye said.
"I don't like jokes either."
"If I don't hear the news of Liu Yi's death in a month, or if someone suspects me of his death, I will take your head as a gift to the king." Ji Wuye said coldly.
"Maybe it will take less than a month. General, please wait for good news. I'll take my leave now." Yang Chong said.
"I will let my people keep an eye on your whereabouts. Their martial arts may not be as good as yours, but when it comes to tracking people, there are not many people in the world who can surpass them, so don't think about escaping." Ji Wuye reminded.
"Now that I'm in this game, why would I think of escaping?" Yang Chong chuckled and walked down from the attic.
"Mo Ya, follow him." Ji Wuye said to himself.
"Yes." A light breeze passed by, and nothing seemed to have changed.
Looking at the empty attic, Ji Wuye suddenly asked the maid beside him: "What do you think of Yang Chong?"
"Very heroic." Faced with Ji Wuye's question, the maid dared not not answer.
"Yes, yes!" the other two maids said the same thing.
"Then tell me, what if I give you to him?" Ji Wuye asked.
"General, we all belong to you." A maid with wet marks on her skirt smiled and put her arms around Ji Wuye's arms.
"Is it this body or this heart?" Ji Wuye stroked the maid's face with a smile. His smooth skin made him unable to let go.
"It's this body, and also this heart." Under Ji Wuye's gentle caress, the maid revealed her shy charm.
"Including your life?" Ji Wuye asked.
"Yes, even my life belongs to the general." The maid was still smiling. She thought that if she could serve the general well tonight, she would definitely get a lot of rewards tomorrow, which would also make her other sisters jealous.
"Then I'm going to take back my things now." Ji Wuye suddenly laughed, and the hand that was stroking the maid's cheek had slid down to her neck. With a click, the slender neck fell weakly to the side, and a stream of liquid mixed with blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and there was still disbelief in her pupils.
"General, please spare us, General, please spare us, we didn't see anything." The other maid was so scared that she immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy.
"It's strange that you heard news you shouldn't have heard." Ji Wuye threw the corpse in his palm away, and two palm winds hit the heads of the two maids.
With two cries of pain, the attic returned to complete silence. Ji Wuye looked at the ground where only the corpse was left, picked up a half-finished glass of wine from the table and poured it into his mouth. It seemed that because it had just been used by the maid, there was still a hint of rouge scent on the glass, which mixed with the aroma of wine and the bloody smell that permeated the attic, and transformed into an intoxicating scent for Ji Wuye.
“Beauty is great, but only if you hold power can you truly possess her.” Ji Wuye looked at the world outside the window and could vaguely see the King of Han’s palace.
power.
The next day, there was no change in the attic. There were still maids serving Ji Wuye. This great general of South Korea knew how to enjoy life. Although the maids around him were not stunningly beautiful, they were all first-class beauties.
These women were either bought for him by Feicuihu or seized by the people in the General's Mansion through manipulation of their power. However, that was not important. What was important was that these women were beautiful enough and he could use them at will.
"Why didn't Mo Ya report to me?" Ji Wuye asked Bai Feng who came to deliver the message.
"Reporting to the general, Mo Ya said that he would only feel at ease if he himself was keeping an eye on Yang Chong, and he was worried that I would lose Yang Chong." Bai Feng replied.
"What is Yang Chong doing now?" Ji Wuye asked
"He changed his appearance and became a fortune teller on the street where Zuo Sima's mansion is located." Bai Feng replied.
"Fortune teller?" Ji Wuye showed a hint of curiosity when he heard this. Could a fortune teller also be able to kill people?
"Is he asking gods and ghosts to help him kill people?" Ji Wuye said to himself. For a moment, he couldn't figure out what Yang Chong was planning.
"Maybe." Bai Feng replied. Although his voice was cold, it was also somewhat humorous.
