"Who is Lai Jing·Fa Nan?" Fu Ya Fang asked blankly.
Ah!
How could I follow his line of thinking!
It's over, it's over, it's over, I'm completely suppressed by him now! This won't do, Fu Ya Fang, even if I'm going to die, I must remain calm!
How can I help this person! He is a sinner who massacred Xian Xia people!
He is a demon! A shameless demon with blood on his hands, wearing a beautiful human skin!
"Let me die," Fu Ya Fang said righteously and stood up, walking towards Mu Ye·Xing Chen. "Kill me quickly! I have been exposed. There is only one consequence for an exposed intelligence operative: death!"
"I am not a coward who fears death; I am a heroic soul of Xian Xia! The great spirit of Xian Xia flows in my blood..."
"Pfft! Hahahaha!" Mu Ye·Xing Chen's always calm face suddenly opened wide and he burst into laughter!
Fu Ya Fang froze halfway. Huh? What's going on? Why is he laughing? Is this funny? No, he's despising me, mocking my spirit of facing death as if it were nothing!
"Hahahaha!" Mu Ye·Xing Chen laughed and said, "Too chuunibyo! Too chuunibyo, hahahaha! In all my life, this is the first time I've heard such a funny cold joke! I must record it!"
After speaking, Mu Ye·Xing Chen raised his wristband and immediately recorded Fu Ya Fang's grand pronouncements.
Fu Ya Fang watched Mu Ye·Xing Chen's skilled movements and serious expression in astonishment, almost believing she had transmigrated to another world!
What the heck is going on here!? He was just talking about a conspiracy seriously, and now...
Wait, wait, wait... He is the Grand Commander of the Xing Chen Army! He is the man who commands hundreds of thousands of troops! He is a killer demon!
How can he do something so childish and unintelligent!
A cold joke!? What is that! What's going on!!!
After Mu Ye·Xing Chen recorded everything Fu Ya Fang said, he resumed his calculating and calm conspiratorial demeanor, sighed softly through his nose, and said calmly, "Sorry, I lost my composure."
Lost your composure, my foot!!! What is all this!
"Sorry, I haven't been this happy in a long time!" Mu Ye·Xing Chen said calmly.
Huh?
Fu Ya Fang was repeatedly struck by Mu Ye·Xing Chen's actions, and a surge of anger immediately rose in her heart.
"You are toying with me! Humiliating me!!!" Fu Ya Fang raised her clenched fist and swung it towards Mu Ye·Xing Chen!
"Bang!!!"
The metal door opened quickly, and Fu Ya Fang, disheveled, walked out of the room. The metal door then closed heavily.
The two guards standing at the door glanced at Fu Ya Fang, then expressionlessly shifted their gaze elsewhere.
Fu Ya Fang calmly adjusted her collar and walked silently towards her office.
On her way back to the office, Fu Ya Fang reflected on what had just happened.
Just now, in Mu Ye·Xing Chen's room, as Fu Ya Fang's angry fist was about to strike Mu Ye·Xing Chen's face, he caught it with a palm and pressed her firmly onto the sofa.
"Sit properly!" Mu Ye·Xing Chen said coldly. "I will not harm you, and please listen to what I have to say."
The two, having returned to their positions, one calm, the other furious.
Mu Ye·Xing Chen said, "Within 48 hours, Xian Xia City will be annihilated! The Black Star Army I command will gradually flatten all of Xian Xia's war zones. At that time, I will become the new ruler of Xian Xia!"
"Nonsense!" Fu Ya Fang cursed loudly. "Even if Xian Xia City is annihilated, a thousand, ten thousand Xian Xia Cities will rise up! The spirit of Xian Xia will never be extinguished!"
"Alright, alright, alright!" Mu Ye·Xing Chen interrupted. "I know what you want to say, but that is the reality. My most powerful mecha masters and most advanced mechas have all been deployed in the offensive against Xian Xia City. The destruction of Xian Xia City is only a matter of time. According to my plan, within a shortest of days, or at most twenty years, I will regain control of the Xian Xia Nation."
"As long as I regain control of Xian Xia, I will stop the war and protect Xian Xia from invasion."
Fu Ya Fang was breathing heavily with anger. She dared not and could not believe the man in front of her; his words were merely honeyed words to deceive others!
"Whether you believe me or not, I will do it," Mu Ye·Xing Chen said, his calm, slightly lazy eyes looking at Fu Ya Fang, and he said softly, "Moreover, no matter who it is, no matter how just their cause, how firm their faith, or how heroic their actions, anyone who dares to stand in my way is my enemy. I will crush anyone who obstructs me."
"As long as I regain control of Xian Xia, I will eliminate the rotten flesh and shameless parasites, and restore a beautiful future for Xian Xia!"
"So, do you choose to pledge allegiance to me, or continue to pledge allegiance to those decadent people?"
Pledge allegiance to you? Fu Ya Fang scoffed inwardly, what a joke, how could the great Xian Xia fall into the hands of someone like you!
"Then, I will give you my final offer! I will give you detailed information on dozens of senior generals in my vast Black Star Xing Chen Army. This is all top-secret information that you could never obtain through your own efforts."
"In return, I need you to do one thing for me."
Fu Ya Fang calmly asked, "What is it? Help you infiltrate Lai Jing·Fa Nan's inner circle? Heh, I won't believe a single word you say. And, you have no reason to do this. What is your motive for giving me information about your own subordinates?"
Mu Ye·Xing Chen said calmly, "The senior generals whose information I am giving you are those who have already betrayed me. I do not need disobedient subordinates."
"I want to use your Xian Xia's hands to eliminate them. This way, I can replace them legitimately. The timing must be precise so that I can replace them with Xian Xia people."
"Huh?" Fu Ya Fang was clearly struggling to keep up with Mu Ye·Xing Chen's train of thought.
"Don't be surprised. I still have influence in Xian Xia. A group of Xian Xia elites secretly follow me. I started laying the groundwork ten years ago."
"Then, I will use you as a pawn, to be sent into Lai Jing·Fa Nan's inner circle. He is even more dangerous than me. He is the true threat to Xian Xia."
Fu Ya Fang smiled contemptuously. "In the end, you just want to trick me into eliminating our intelligence network within the Black Star, right? What Lai Jing·Fa Nan is clearly an excuse you fabricated to absolve yourself of your crimes! Heh, I almost believed your nonsense!"
Mu Ye·Xing Chen remained calm and said, "That's all I have to say. You can report what I've said truthfully to your superior. Also, feel free to investigate however you want, I guarantee that you will never be able to uncover my true identity. The high-level officials of Xian Xia must have already destroyed the files."
"Let's go, Fu Ya Fang. You can rest assured completely, I will not arrest you, nor will I assassinate you. Remember to mess up your collar when you go out, after all, I still have other people's eyes on me here."
Mu Ye·Xing Chen calmly stood up and poured himself another cup of Bitter Grass Wine. This time, he drank it all in one gulp.
"Your luck is truly good. Perhaps, you will be the most crucial pawn in my elimination of Lai Jing·Fa Nan."
After saying these words, Mu Ye·Xing Chen no longer paid attention to Fu Ya Fang and walked into the bedroom alone, closing the door heavily.
Now, Fu Ya Fang had just returned to her workstation. This hour and a half of conversation had left her mind in a complete mess.
Mu Ye·Xing Chen's words were highly informative and needed to be carefully sorted and reported to her superior.
Moreover, there was one thing she couldn't understand: why did he trust her?
Why did he reveal his thoughts in front of an enemy?
Fu Ya Fang had remembered every word Mu Ye·Xing Chen had said, which was the most basic ability of a spy.
After spending five minutes sorting the information, Fu Ya Fang spent another two hours arranging it into a code in her mind, and after carefully checking it three times, she slowly stood up.
By then, the sky had completely darkened.
It was 9:48 PM; she had been sitting there for four hours.
She walked to the large floor-to-ceiling window and gazed towards Xian Xia.
Fu Ya Fang murmured dejectedly, "I wonder how things are back home. It must be a bloodbath. Liu Feng, what are you doing?"
