Chapter 2199

After Li Ruanyu gets the Angel Bloodline, she should bring it back to Zhao Chi as soon as possible.

Even if she has to arrange work for the territory, she can notify through a voice-transmission talisman.

Moreover, from the outside world's perspective, she is within her working hours for Taiyilun, so it generally won't delay her time.

Even though these 4.6 minutes are very short.

But... it's already been very long.

Zhao Chi immediately opened the system and contacted Li Ruanyu.

【Message Send Failed】

What the hell?

Failed?

Send again.

Still failed.

Zhao Chi 【Zhuang Ya, immediately summon Li Ruanyu!】

Zhuang Ya 【Huh? Understood!】

Although Zhuang Ya was very surprised.

But this kind of matter belonged to the highest execution order.

She froze for an instant, but quickly began to execute.

The sky's light shifted between bright and dark.

The next second, three women's figures appeared beside Zhao Chi's workbench.

The one in the middle was Li Ruanyu.

Her expression was extremely angry, but she didn't appear to be injured.

The two women beside her were both her subordinates; one was seriously injured, the other was unhurt but also glaring furiously.

The next moment, the expressions of all three of them changed.

Li Ruanyu breathed a sigh of relief, while her two subordinates were both completely dumbfounded.

Li Ruanyu ignored Zhao Chi's astonishment and directly ordered: "You two go back for treatment immediately, don't linger here, don't worry about me, we're safe now."

Those two female subordinates were extremely surprised.

But they both saw that the environment they were in now was completely different from before.

They both also recognized Zhao Chi.

Only now did they also breathe a sigh of relief.

"Yes!"

The two immediately vanished.

Li Ruanyu said to Zhao Chi: "Bai Zhenyu wants to imprison me to exclusively produce fashion and equipment for him. It's not yet confirmed whether he's a werewolf spy, but we must investigate. I need to go see Commander Yao Feng immediately."

After saying that, she was about to leave.

Zhao Chi quickly grabbed her.

"Ruanyu, wait a moment! The clan summon can only be used once per day, and Zhuang Ya can't summon you again today. I'll have Tang Ruan connect to you."

Li Ruanyu slightly furrowed her brow: "Commander Yao Feng should be fine... alright."

Zhao Chi immediately notified Tang Ruan: "Tang Ruan, Penglai Town military factory, come here immediately!"

A few seconds later.

A naked, pure-white jade body appeared beside everyone.

Two F-rank great perfection breasts trembled unsteadily.

A pure and pretty face looked around in confusion.

Tang Ruan must have just been training in the Phantom Martial Room.

Hearing Zhao Chi's words, she didn't even have time to put on anything before immediately teleporting over.

Zhao Chi said: "Tang Ruan, immediately connect to Ruanyu, and casually disconnect one other person from the connection."

"Yes!"

Although Tang Ruan is sometimes a bit slow, her execution of orders is very serious and swift.

"Sister Ruanyu, I'm linking to you now, you also synchronize and feel me, only this way can we connect."

"Okay."

Soon, the two successfully connected.

Zhao Chi took out a Nuwa Stone fragment.

"Ruanyu, take this and keep it."

Li Ruanyu directly waved her hand: "I don't need this, you're more important than me, you keeping it is more useful than me keeping it."

Zhao Chi grabbed her hand and forcefully stuffed it into it.

Then said:

"I'll just stay in the territory and not go anywhere, no one can hurt me.

"Your situation seems bad right now, Bai Zhenyu couldn't possibly want to imprison you just because you can produce special fashion, the timing isn't right.

"After all, in the current situation, the most important thing is to survive, to get away from the werewolves.

"So... he must have come after you for the werewolves.

"It's basically confirmed that he's a werewolf spy. Didn't we speculate before that there's a high-level werewolf mole inside?

"Now that he knows you truly have the ability to make such powerful fashion, he must kill you to silence you first.

"Can't let you continue providing more equipment for the World-Breaking Army.

"But the fashion you make is too good, they can't bear to kill you. They want to put you under house arrest and have you make things for them.

"After all, the fashion you make can be worn by werewolves too, and it works on them as well.

"So they used the Angel Bloodline as bait to lure you in.

"Take this. If you don't end up needing this Nüwa Stone fragment, just give it back to me when you come back.

"Also take this Fuxi Qin fragment for now. If you run into another communications blackout, you can use it to notify me, and I'll have Tang Ruan pull you back.

"Otherwise I won't be able to judge when to pull you back."

Li Ruanyu silently lowered her head.

She was not a stubborn woman.

In an instant she understood the reasoning behind it.

"Alright then, Zhao Chi, I won't stand on ceremony. Time is limited, so I'll head over to Captain Yao Feng right now."

Zhao Chi nodded: "Alright, be careful with everything."

"Mm."

Li Ruanyu vanished.

Zhao Chi also exited Zhuang Ya's body at this point.

Zhuang Ya sighed: "These werewolves really are formidable — they even managed to turn someone of Bai Zhenyu's caliber."

Zhao Chi said: "Either he's been a werewolf spy all along, or the werewolves have some kind of leverage on him. I'd always had a pretty good impression of him; I never expected it would turn out like this."

Zhuang Ya said: "Got our hopes up for nothing. We really thought we'd get one Angel Bloodline. Just now he was talking so plausibly, going on about how Blood Mages need life the most, telling us to make 5,000 Life Brassieres accordingly — turns out it was all fake."

Zhao Chi nodded and said: "Precisely because the reasoning was so solid, Ruanyu believed it. After all, Bai Zhenyu is a Vice Captain we've worked with for a long time, and his race really is Blood Elf, and Life Brassieres really are very useful to Blood Elves… All of that was true, but the ultimate goal was to capture Ruanyu."

Tang Ruan kept shaking her head.

When Zhao Chi spoke, she looked at Zhao Chi. When Zhuang Ya spoke, she looked at Zhuang Ya.

She had absolutely no idea what had happened.

Zhao Chi said: "Tang Ruan, when you're training in the Phantom Martial Room, you can receive my messages in real time too, right?"

"Mm, yes, so I just logged out directly just now and teleported over."

Zhao Chi nodded: "I may need you to use Tribe Summon soon to summon Ruanyu back. The moment I send you the notification, act immediately!"

Tang Ruan said seriously: "Understood, my lord. I will definitely summon Sister Ruanyu back at the first moment."

Zhuang Ya comforted: "The flow of time here is different from the Greater World, so after my lord tells you the message, you'll have plenty of operational margin. Don't be too nervous."

Tang Ruan nodded: "Mm, alright."

What a mess this turned out to be…

Truly empty joy.

Just now I was dreaming of the Angel Bloodline, and it turned out to be a trap.
