Chapter 1023: Liu Mengyun

But hearing Su Yang talk about all the privileges for Sovereign Jiazi's subordinates and relatives, Liu Mengyun wanted to laugh.

Because everything Su Yang said was nonsense.

Any beast tamer who joins the military, their relatives automatically qualify for these benefits!

Among the thousands brought by Sovereign Jiazi, there are quite a few beast tamers.

Add in Sovereign Jiazi herself and Danmu Baihui, two King-level强者, and the remaining thousands can easily qualify for the benefits Su Yang mentioned.

In other words, the benefits received by Sovereign Jiazi's subordinates and her own family are merely the standard treatment any ordinary Chinese beast tamer or King-level强者 receives upon joining the military!

There is no such thing as "special privilege"!

The Chinese military will never miss any opportunity to recruit beast tamers.

Right now, they're just opening a limited number of slots for Sovereign Jiazi's beast tamer subordinates; over time, they may continue absorbing other outstanding Japanese beast tamers into the army, dispersing them across different units.

At that point, Sovereign Jiazi might even think this is the Southeast Military's formal acceptance of their performance, and feel deeply grateful to the Southeast Military…

It's all an old trick!

Faced with the dominant Su Yang, Sovereign Jiazi yielded.

"Fine!" Sovereign Jiazi said. "I'll have them try to integrate into the local culture."

"That's best!"

After Su Yang and Sovereign Jiazi finished talking, Liu Mengyun suddenly spoke up: "By the way, Sovereign Jiazi, be careful in the coming days!"

"Be careful of what?"

"Be careful of being targeted by Tianxing Society!"

"Targeted by Tianxing Society?" Sovereign Jiazi pointed at herself in confusion. "Because I killed two of them?"

Su Yang also looked curiously at Liu Mengyun.

Liu Mengyun asked: "Have you read the Tianxing Society's files recently?"

"I read them seriously!" Sovereign Jiazi sighed. "But I read slowly—I know Chinese and recognize most characters, but reading still doesn't come naturally to me. I often read the first sentence and forget the next. And the Tianxing Society materials are… very extensive… I think by the time I finish reading them, my Chinese will have improved dramatically!"

The Tianxing Society materials really are numerous.

But not excessively so.

"Excessively numerous" is only true from the perspective of a foreigner like Sovereign Jiazi.

The Tianxing Society in the southeast has been relatively active over the past few decades.

Every time they commit a crime, the Southeast Military distributes the full case details as classified documents to all major cities for relevant personnel to study.

Sometimes, other lower-tier Tianxing Society Juan Sect files are also sent out by the Southeast Military.

Over time, these classified files on Tianxing Society have accumulated enough to fill an entire large filing cabinet!

"That's not the point!" Liu Mengyun said. "I've been studying the Tianxing Society files too, and I've noticed they particularly enjoy recruiting young beast tamers—especially young geniuses, who are their prime targets!"

"Recruiting young geniuses?" Su Yang frowned, thought for a moment, then nodded. "That's true. When I served in the Southwest Military's Emergency Unit, I saw some classified Tianxing Society files in Changwu City. I remember one case: a teenage genius beast tamer vanished from prison, and later the Southwest Military discovered he'd joined Tianxing Society!"

"Thirteen-year-old boys, right after awakening, always feel special, superior… especially beast tamers from commoner backgrounds—they're especially prone to psychological imbalance!" Su Yang glanced at Liu Mengyun, who quickly added, "I mean only a small fraction of newly awakened beast tamers from commoner families!"

"You're right—this does happen."

Su Yang couldn't help sighing.

Beast tamers who awaken from commoner families do indeed perform worse in the early days than those from wealthy families.

It's a sudden wealth syndrome after being struck by fortune.

"Some emotionally unstable teenagers easily fall into Tianxing Society's traps," Liu Mengyun whispered. "Plus, some geniuses, inflated by praise, look down on ordinary people with arrogance… sometimes they kill ordinary people over trivial arguments or grudges—exactly what the Chinese Federation forbids!"

"Yes, the genius beast tamer I mentioned earlier was imprisoned because he flew into a rage and killed several ordinary people."

At this, Su Yang immediately understood.

"Lieutenant Liu, are you suggesting Tianxing Society might target Sovereign Jiazi?"

Liu Mengyun stared at Sovereign Jiazi and nodded: "There's a real probability. First, they have this habit. Second, Sovereign Jiazi has a perfectly valid reason to betray you and the Chinese Federation—everyone knows it."

Under Liu Mengyun's icy gaze, Sovereign Jiazi broke into cold sweat.

Liu Mengyun's words were terrifying.

Sovereign Jiazi knew well Liu Mengyun's influence over Su Yang.

She quickly swore loyalty: "My lord, I have absolutely no intention of betraying you!"

"Sovereign Jiazi harbors resentment toward the Chinese Federation and you," Liu Mengyun ignored her protest and continued analyzing. "If I were Tianxing Society, I'd definitely reach out to Sovereign Jiazi—her talent is genuinely impressive."

After hearing Liu Mengyun's analysis, Su Yang nodded seriously: "Makes sense."

"My lord, I have no intention of betraying you!"

Su Yang smiled and asked: "Then do you hate me?"

Sovereign Jiazi lowered her head, unsure how to answer.

If she said she didn't hate him, he'd likely find it offensive.

Because Su Yang would never believe her.

But if she said, "Yes, I still hate you…" heh!

So she chose silence.

"I don't care if you hate me—as long as you serve me, as long as you do your job well, as long as you don't betray me, it doesn't matter."

Hearing Su Yang's words firsthand, Sovereign Jiazi was stunned.

Those words proved his boldness and confidence.

Even Sovereign Jiazi had to admit—when he said that, he was truly charismatic.

"Yes, my lord!"

Liu Mengyun said: "I think if Tianxing Society really plans to approach Sovereign Jiazi, it could be quite interesting."

"Interesting?"

Sovereign Jiazi was not foolish; she seemed to understand Liu Mengyun's meaning.

"It's indeed quite interesting!"

Su Yang nodded in agreement.

He looked at Liu Mengyun, and Liu Mengyun looked back at him.

Their gazes met in midair, and in an instant, they understood each other's intent.

Liu Mengyun's lips curled slightly: "I've heard the Tianxing Society still has a few strong ones—should be quite challenging!"

Su Yang nodded: "Perfect—I love challenges!"
