The Immortal Fire
Chapter 35: Secret Operation



"。 。Pingjinng de shui, thie dungyngzhe liainyi. Chenshu de long, yei xingle." said the young man who was sitting with his hands on the side of the chair.


*That means: Quiet water, rippling too. The sleeping dragon, woke up as well.


That man was Yu Qiao, the owner of the wine shop as well as the Brothel House in Chun Meng city. Famous as a literary artist who ventured in poetry, had a handsome face, insightful, and had martial arts that was quite calculated in the Wei empire.


He has a handsome and charming face. With a powerful alluring aura, it was enough to make a girl go crazy in one glance.


A servant girl then knelt down and poured a glass of wine for the man, "Young Master, what does that mean to you?"


The man laughed as he received the wine glass earlier, some servant girls were also looking at the man's hands and back.


"What should happen, will happen. No one can stop him even if it's a god."


"We're not as poetic as you are, but who is the person you mean, Gong Zi?" said the other waiter.


But the man closed his eyes with a mischievous smile as if he did not want to answer the question of the girls, "I heard, there is turmoil from the Capital. The Tang clan of Han was sufficiently venerable to be conquered by the Emperor."


"Thus ... You think the Emperor can't do anything further for some time?" Ask the other girl while constantly filling her employer's Arak glass.


"Conflict is inevitable, just choose two paths between black and white. We can just watch while we wait, whose piece gets rid of who's piece."


"Young Master Yu's mind is indeed as sharp as a Zen sword, as rumored. No wonder you were dubbed the Zen Sword of Heaven." a loud voice from the front of the terrace made Yu Qiao open his eyes.


Yu Qiao smiled and immediately fixed his sitting position, "Master is really good at tongue-licking, to the point that I find it difficult to distinguish between praise and innuendo. Please sit down, Brother Xue."


*The Zen Sword is an heirloom of an unbeatable legend of its sharpness. While the 'Heaven' referred to here is the worldly pleasures that lead to the relationship of men and women.


"It is rare that Mr. Yu is in the residence, I feel flattered," said the man who is said to be surnamed Xue.


His name was Xue Hongli, the royal business owner as well as a big gambler. He was in charge of organizing and negotiating the stables with several branches of business and bureau that the Emperor wanted as cooperation.


However, do not let you imagine it is similar to a fat and moustached old man and haughty. I'm telling you, you guys have misjudged.


Xue Hongli was a 20-year-old youth who had the appearance of a Snow Jade, lips as red as peaches, a smile like a crescent moon, and his gaze shaded like dew. He exuded an aura of great authority that made him look like a prince from the sky.


Unfortunately, attitude is not seen from the form. Xue Hongli was a person who liked to bet, he could even risk anything just for the sake of achieving his goal. If you think that he is crazy about money, that is also a big mistake.


He already holds many shares of dozens of companies, cooperating with many organizations. But the goal is only one, the Decree of God.


"Yu Xiong, uh. Don't be so formal, I came to discuss some important things. Can I have some free time?" said Xue Hongli while glancing at the female servant belonging to Yu Qiao.


"This is related to our Secret Operation. Some may have known this, some leaked the original plan and made our scenario go awry."


Yu Qiao furrowed his brows, as their plan was only known to insiders. "How can our people be trusted?"


"It's likely that the allies have some spies who have unwittingly infiltrated the organization, we should change our plans and make sure no one knows but the core group" Xue Hongli said.


Yu Qiao ordered his servant to get the paper and pen, he started writing something on the paper without speaking a bit.


After he finished, he directly tied the paper with a ribbon and handed it to Xue Hongli. "Deliver this letter to the Purple Pagoda Sect, make sure my message reaches Chairman Luo's hands."


Xue Hongli nodded and received the letter quickly, putting the thing into his robe.


"One more thing, what is the condition of Jiangnan District and what is the Emperor's response to the Tang rebels?"


Xue Hongli smiled wryly, "Iming-iming the Tang rebels are spreading like an infectious disease, most likely the Emperor will start a war with the Han empire. This makes our accumulated time even more desperate and forces us to move faster."


"You're saying this is going into the War phase?" Xue Hongli nodded in response. "Then what about the influence that is contagious in society, is not the position of the Emperor currently faltering?"


The position of the Emperor is indeed being unfavorable at this time, the article some regions have purely declared rebellion blatantly. Most of the black sects also entered the rebellion group, some of them chose to stay in the safe zone and not participate.


"I also do not know the continuation of the article, maybe in the next few months I will return to Jiangnan to take information. The Fourth Prince hasn't returned from his vacation either, especially I have to meet him and pick him up."


Yu Qiao screeched upon hearing the last sentence. "Either naive or foolish, this prince Wang Yan is instead on vacation at a time when the royal crisis is on the rise."


Despite not answering, Xue Hongli confirmed Yu Qiao's scathing statement regarding the Emperor's youngest son.


"Oh, don't think too much about my words just now. You may have a lot to take care of, I just want to advise you to choose a girl to treat your fatigue."


The young man's face was instantly flat upon hearing that one suggestion from Yu Qiao's mouth, his ears turning red from enduring the embarrassment.


Yu Qiao who saw that instead laughed out loud. "Xue Xiong, my words are not wrong. Aren't you tired of being a bachelor? If you want, I can give you some of the best women from my brothel to take home, I'll give it to you for free."


"No need to bother, Yu Xiong. I said goodbye," Xue Hongli said instantly turned around and left Yu Qiao in his laughter.


Maybe Yu Qiao had a point, but for Xue Hongli it was always wrong. You could say this Xue Hongli almost disliked women, living a rigid and monotonous life, also loved his mission and work.
