Chapter 850

After cupping his face with both hands and thinking for a long time, Wan Shitong shook his head blankly.

"I don't have any ideas. I've never been good at using my brain. Boss, why don't you think about it? Once you've thought it through, tell me, and I'll be responsible for the physical labor."

Chen Ang hadn't been counting on him anyway, so upon hearing his answer, he just nodded lightly.

"I don't have any leads on this matter for now either; I need to think about it more. Don't be anxious; things will work out in the end. Now that we know the opponent's conspiracy, we will eventually find a way."

"Yes, Boss, you must find a way to break their conspiracy. You absolutely cannot let the Ghost Clan succeed!"

"I know, give me some more time."

Two days later, Chen Ang finally had an idea in his mind.

Finding Wan Shitong, the two began to conspire.

Although they were in his own home, Chen Ang still used his Qi to shroud the room they were in.

After ensuring safety, he said, "Last time I heard Huang Yu say that this God of War is always high-profile and arrogant. If we want to deal with him, we can actually do the opposite."

Hearing his words, Wan Shitong was somewhat confused.

"Boss, what does 'do the opposite' mean?"

"It means using a different method to deal with him. In the past, the Ghost Clan was relatively low-key, usually appearing at night, but he is different. He is high-profile, often appearing in various taverns, and frequently publicizes his identity as if he's afraid others won't know. Because of this, he will definitely accumulate many enemies. Since he is so flamboyant, we will deal with him in a flamboyant way."

"A flamboyant way? Kill him with great fanfare?"

"That won't work. Although he is high-profile, his strength is very strong. If we kill him with great fanfare, it will definitely alert An Ye's side. Now he is in the light and we are in the dark. We will release some news under his banner, then appear in the tavern using the Fox Clan's aura. When the God of War is drunk, we will find a way to lure him to a deserted place, and then we will deal with him."

Pondering Chen Ang's words carefully, Wan Shitong's eyes brightened bit by bit.

"Boss, this idea of yours is really good! We release the news first and lure all his enemies over. Even if we kill him then, An Ye won't know who did it. This idea is brilliant!"

Seeing him approve of his idea, Chen Ang curled the corners of his lips slightly.

"We not only need to lure his enemies, but also his fair-weather friends. With many people and a chaotic crowd, mixed with good and bad, it will be easier for us to make a move."

As soon as Chen Ang finished speaking, Wan Shitong clapped his hands happily.

"Right, this idea is good; this idea is simply perfect! Boss, when are we going to release the news?"

"We cannot show our faces to release the news. The Ghost Clan is currently watching us. If we go out to release the news ourselves, we will definitely be discovered by them. This matter must be done by someone else."

"Are you referring to Li Lao's people?"

"Yes, you are truly smart for once."

Looking at the smile on Chen Ang's face, Wan Shitong was somewhat dissatisfied.

"Boss, I've always been smart, okay?"

"Is that so? I didn't notice."

After saying this, Chen Ang leaned back on his chair leisurely, not even giving Wan Shitong an extra glance.

Seeing him like this, Wan Shitong hurriedly moved to the position directly opposite him.

"Boss, actually I really am quite smart. It's just that I've been by your side for too long, and I've become a bit too dependent on you. I listen to you in everything, so I don't want to use my own brain. If you weren't by my side, my IQ would immediately return to high ground; I would definitely be much smarter than I am now."

Hearing his words, Chen Ang raised his eyebrows.

"What do you mean by this? Do you think I'm in your way?"

"I didn't say that. I'm just explaining to you why I'm not very smart right now—no, I can't say it like that. I should say it's why I'm unwilling to be smart right now."

Listening to him use such pedantic language, Chen Ang couldn't help but chuckle.

"Alright, alright, stop being pedantic with me. I know you're a smart person. Let's go to Li Lao's place first."

Arriving at Li Lao's place, Chen Ang knocked on the door politely.

Hearing the knock, the person inside walked out with a vigilant look. When he saw it was the two of them, a smile finally appeared on his face.

"Chen Ang, Wan Shitong, you're here."

"Yes, we came to discuss something with Li Lao. Is he in?"

"He is. Li Lao just finished practicing and is drinking tea in the pavilion. The old gentleman gave orders that next time you come, you can just come in directly; there's no need to knock."

Hearing his words, Chen Ang said courteously, "Li Lao is the Master; we are guests, so knocking is the proper thing to do. We will go to the pavilion to find Li Lao first."

Seeing him being so courteous, the man sighed lightly and helplessly gestured for them to proceed.

Walking all the way to the pavilion, the two bowed respectfully.

Seeing this, Li Lao hurriedly stood up and helped them both up.

"Chen Ang, Wan Shitong, we are all our own people, why be so courteous? Coming here is like coming to your own home; there aren't so many rules. Otherwise, if you do this again next time, I'm going to get angry."

After hearing his words, Chen Ang nodded with a smile and sat on the stone chair with Wan Shitong.

After the three were seated, Li Lao asked, "What wind blew you here today? Usually, I can't even see your faces. Do you have time today?"

Pursing his lips, Chen Ang did not beat around the bush and stated his purpose directly.

Upon learning that he wanted to use his subordinates, Li Lao nodded without hesitation.

"You can. You can use my people however you want; use them as you please."

Hearing his words, Wan Shitong asked curiously, "Li Lao, you didn't even ask what we wanted to do before letting us use your people?"

Looking up at Chen Ang, Li Lao smiled and said, "Chen Ang is a person with a sense of proportion. If he wants to use people, he must have serious business to do. There's no need to ask."

"Li Lao, then what if I were the one borrowing your people?" Wan Shitong asked curiously again.

"You? You can too, but I would have to ask. After all, you aren't as reliable as Chen Ang; I have to keep an eye on things for you."

Hearing this, Wan Shitong sighed helplessly.

"Li Lao, actually I am also a very reliable person. It's just that in front of the Boss, I'm made to look a bit unreliable."

"Is that so? I didn't notice."

As soon as Li Lao said this, even Chen Ang was amused.

"Li Lao, actually I want to use your people to help me spread some news. Recently, An Ye sent the God of War by his side to deal with us. We have already met secretly once. Now I have thought of a way to deal with him, but Wan Shitong and I cannot show our faces, so I can only borrow your people."

Learning that An Ye had sent someone again, Li Lao's brows knitted into a knot.

"It seems the Ghost Clan truly refuses to shed tears until they see the coffin, and refuses to give up until they reach the Yellow River!"

"Pretty much. Perhaps our human race's deterrent power is quite large, so he got scared as soon as he heard our names. To bolster his own courage, he has had to repeatedly launch attacks on us to prove the Ghost Clan's strength. As for whether they really have the strength, that matter remains to be seen."

"There's nothing to see about this matter. We aren't even afraid of the Demon Clan; could we be afraid of a mere Ghost Clan? Chen Ang, use my people as much as you want; use them however you like, as long as you can take down the Ghost Clan."

Hearing his words, Chen Ang nodded with a smile.

"Li Lao, don't worry, I definitely won't let you down."

The God of War had been appearing with increasing frequency, so Chen Ang seized this opportunity to use Li Lao's people to spread the news.

Soon, the matter of the banquet became known to everyone.

When the news spread, the God of War was still enjoying it.

He did not know that this news was spread by Chen Ang; he thought that because he had made many friends over the years, these people saw him appearing frequently recently and spontaneously organized this gathering.

With countless people surrounding him every day, the God of War enjoyed this feeling very much. Although some of these people had once been his enemies, the thought that they were now surrounding him made him feel uncontrollably proud.

He tacitly accepted this matter, and the news began to spread wider and wider.

Soon, Huang Yu found Chen Ang.

At this time, Chen Ang was practicing in his courtyard. Sensing his aura, he curled the corners of his lips slightly and opened the door for him with his internal Qi.

When Huang Yu entered, Chen Ang had just finished his practice. Feeling the faint aura, Huang Yu did not walk further inside but sat down beside the Spirit Spring well.

Looking at the spring water inside, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Chen Ang, why is this spring water full? You couldn't bear to drink it?"

Hearing his words, Chen Ang nodded with a smile.

"I have observed the pattern of the Spirit Spring well; it takes about ten days or so to fill up once. The time is a bit long, so I didn't drink it."

"Ten days or so isn't long, and it won't go empty. What are you reluctant about? You should drink it when you need to. After all, only by drinking it can it continue to grow. If you don't drink it, it will always be this much. And no matter how long you store it, the spiritual power inside is the same; there's no need to be so frugal."

Thinking about it carefully, Chen Ang felt that what he said made sense.

Picking up the gourd ladle, he stepped forward and began to drink gulp after gulp.

Seeing him drinking wildly, Huang Yu rubbed his temples.

"You really listen to advice; you drank it as soon as I told you to."

Putting down the gourd ladle, Chen Ang said with a smile, "I just finished practicing, so I was just thirsty." ===== CHAPTER 851 =====
