Chapter 589 - 589: Kill the Person You Like First (3)
“It’s decided then!”
Hao Yu Wei also thinking that choosing a man would be a difficult task, but she didn’t expect to find the right candidate so quickly.
She stood up and walked downstairs, finding a guard waiting on the second floor, and asked, “Where is Yu Tie Jun, and how far has the assessment downstairs progressed?!”
“Please wait a moment, I’ll check right now…” One of the two guards went down to the first floor to check.
After a while, the guard returned, accompanied by Yu Tie Jun.
“Lady Seven!”
Yu Tie Jun respectfully bowed his head in greeting.
Hao Yu Wei let him be and did not correct his address.
Before the new ruler had fully transferred power, she still needed to leverage the residual influence of Li Tian Ba.
When Li Tian Ba left, he did not explicitly inform the rest of them that he would not return.
When Li Tian Ba left, taking all the experts with him, it was an unusual move that raised speculation among some.
But no one dared to assert that Li Tian Ba would not return, so no one dared to overstep.
Only Hao Yu Wei got confirmed that Li Tian Ba would not return, and thus started plotting early.
Hao Yu Wei asked indifferently, “How far has the assessment progressed?!”
Yu Tie Jun respectfully answered, “It’s almost finished, the potential estimation is basically completed…”
“Hmm…”
“The paper mentioned a person named Huo Zhen Wu, who is in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship with a female ultimate warrior, Pan Yi Ting?!”
“Yes!”
“Call him over!”
Yu Tie Jun nodded but did not leave. Instead, he signaled to two guards nearby with his eyes.
The guards understood immediately and quickly left, not daring to disturb their conversation.
Hao Yu Wei guessed something fishy but did not stop them.
When no one else was around, Yu Tie Jun knelt on one knee, respectfully saying, “Lady Seven, I wonder if Tie Jun is fortunate enough to serve you loyally?!”
Hao Yu Wei chuckled and said, “Loyally? Don’t you know, in this camp, besides Li Tian Ba, there is no second master?!”
Yu Tie Jun breathed a sigh of relief, understanding he had guessed correctly.
“Lady Seven, the lord must have abandoned us, right?!”
Hao Yu Wei did not answer directly but instead asked, “How many people from the first floor can you mobilize?!”
“I can mobilize all of them. The people at the north gate of the first floor have all gone on expeditions, leaving only the people from the south gate. This area is all unimportant places; the lord didn’t assign any formidable people here…”
Indeed, what they usually guarded were the borders against zero-tier regions, hardly a task deemed important.
The truly powerful guards were often stationed near the north gate of the camp and naturally followed Li Tian Ba when he left.
It can be said that the entire camp was extremely depleted of strength, and just about any first-tier warrior could dominate here.
“Very well!”
“From today onwards, you are my man. If I can be promoted to the second-tier camp, I will surely take you with me!”
“Thank you, Lady Seven…” Yu Tie Jun was overjoyed, not expecting to catch the last train.
“Still calling me Lady Seven?!”
“Then I should…”
“For now, let’s stick to the old address. After the new ruler has successfully taken over, you can call me Miss!”
“Yes!”
Yu Tie Jun hurriedly complied.
Despite appearing invincible in front of those zero-tier warriors, the reality was that he was only a first-tier junior, never having left the north gate of the camp.
As for fighting monsters, he thought better of it. Compared to these, he was more adept at bluffing and managing people.
“What about those interviewees downstairs…”
“Let them go out and wait for the notice, and remember to call Huo Zhen Wu over…”
Huo Zhen Wu…
Yu Tie Jun tensed up; he had previously intimidated Huo Zhen Wu, thinking if this person became the new ruler.
With this thought, he couldn’t care about anything else and hurriedly said, “Miss, that Huo Zhen Wu, is he the next…”
“No, just send him out to pass a message…” At this moment, Hao Yu Wei had taken Yu Tie Jun under her wing, knowing she needed to reassure him, so she straightforwardly revealed their chosen candidate.
“The one I have my eye on is the woman who leads two thousand people outside, Ji Wu Shuang…”
“A woman?!” Yu Tie Jun was startled.
Out of so many men, they chose a woman?!
Hao Yu Wei smiled and revealed her plan, “You wouldn’t think that we will never see Li Tian Ba again, right?!”
With those words, Yu Tie Jun instantly imaged the future event and breaking out in cold sweat.
He understood that if Hao Yu Wei had chosen a man, and they encountered Li Tian Ba in the second-tier camp, they would all die, including him.
Conversely, if Hao Yu Wei allied with a woman, it would only be a surprise and not a death sentence for them.
Yu Tie Jun has his mind set as he must serve her well, and keep a certain distance, absolutely not making any foolish mistakes.
Otherwise, once they reach the second-tier zone and everything is restored…
“Yes, yes, yes, thank you for the reminder, Miss. I’ll go down now…” Yu Tie Jun was now completely reassured.
At the very least, Hao Yu Wei had told him the truth, showing that they were now in the same boat..
