Protagonist:
Xuan Ge
Silva walked at the very front leading the way, chatting with Hei Ta and the others about Ya Li Luo's local customs as they walked.
At this moment Xiao Hei Ta suddenly noticed Ruan Mei look back; she immediately became alert.
The last time Ruan Mei did this was when she stole food while Black Tower Lady was in a coma.
This was told to me by the Hei Ta Network cluster.
Seeing Xiao Hei Ta fall into thought, Silver Wolf quietly sidled over and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? Could it be that serious business is actually not proper?"
"Absolutely not proper."
The one who answered was surprisingly a male voice.
Xiao Hei Ta and Silver Wolf turned their heads simultaneously, only to see Fu Xuan holding a phone, the screen displaying none other than Jing Yuan's smiling white-haired avatar.
Fu Xuan turned the volume to minimum and held the phone up to Silver Wolf and Xiao Hei Ta: "General, how did you know?"
"Know your son like your father; the moment Xuan Ge sticks his butt out, I know what fart he's gonna let rip."
The three women fell silent simultaneously.
"General, Silver Wolf and Xiao Hei Ta are listening beside me. Please watch your words, don't use such vulgar phrasing."
Fu Xuan tried to maintain the General's due dignity.
The other end of the phone fell silent for a breath, then Jing Yuan's voice sounded again.
"Shen Wu Rule of Thumb: whenever Xuan Ge is alone with any woman, any so-called serious business will never be proper business. Remember this, benefit for life."
The three women exchanged a glance.
At this moment Xiao Hei Ta muttered: "No wonder Ruan Mei looked back just now...."
Hearing Xiao Hei Ta's voice, a flash of white light crossed Jing Yuan's mind instantly.
"Fu Xuan, tonight Xuan Ge will definitely score a second time. When that happens you all...."
He explained the plan from start to finish in detail.
Three heads huddled together listening seriously, nodding from time to time, all praising in their hearts that this truly is the Xian Zhou's wisest General.
General Yao Guang compared to him is simply weak to the point of explosion.
Their whispered plotting did not escape Ruan Mei's eyes.
Walking at the front of the group, Ruan Mei imperceptibly withdrew her sidelong gaze, the corner of her mouth curving up imperceptibly.
She had long since noticed these three were off.
"What's wrong, Ruan Mei?" Hei Ta noticed Ruan Mei looking back twice, and her own vigilance rose.
Ruan Mei smiled faintly and shook her head: "Nothing, just the first time I've seen Xiao Hei Ta and Silver Wolf getting along so harmoniously."
"Hmph, traitors and rebels, that's all. Once I free my hands, she's the first I'll clean up."
Hei Ta also glanced back, but didn't take it too seriously.
Although Xiao Hei Ta does have that function installed, compared to Xuan Ge's specifications it's still too small.
Xuan Ge's vigor can make even Marshal Hua's legs go weak for days.
If Xiao Hei Ta forces it toughly, either Xuan Ge supports her the whole way with Abundance Power, or she falls apart on the spot.
But knowing Xuan Ge as she does, that man will most likely choose the first option.
And this is exactly the move Xiao Hei Ta herself plans to play, using Abundance conversion to directly obtain a true flesh body.
Then come and usurp this Consort Hui's position.
Xiao Hei Ta sensed the gaze falling on her; she looked up and collided with Black Tower Lady's eyes.
Without a second word she grabbed Silver Wolf and switched positions, using her own body to block that scrutiny.
"What are you looking at, never seen a beauty?"
Silver Wolf flicked her signature single spiral ponytail, casually throwing Black Tower's favorite narcissistic line right back at her.
"Good spirit." Hei Ta smiled faintly, not angry but amused.
This grudge she noted down.
Wait till the day you fall into my hands, let's see if I don't learn from Da Li Hua and properly fix you up.
"Upper, middle, and lower three strategies I've given you all, remember them?"
"Rest assured General, we obey your command." Fu Xuan nodded, then hung up.
"As expected, dealing with Xuan Ge still relies on Jing Yuan." Black Wolf's voice appeared in Silver Wolf's mind.
"Your words have a slight bias; Jing Yuan isn't the only one who can deal with Xuan Ge."
Silver Wolf retorted to Black Wolf in her consciousness, incidentally bringing up the best Ren Shu.
"Ren Shu also knows Xuan Ge's depth thoroughly, and in terms of interception success rate, he's not a bit lower than Dan Heng and Jing Yuan."
Black Wolf sneered: 'Then what if Jing Yuan and Xuan Ge are together, and then Ren joins in, what's the result?'
Silver Wolf's eyelid twitched, she answered honestly: "Uh... Ren Shu is also a lump of crap."
'The strategy Jing Yuan just gave is indeed good, but I feel there are two factors that must be prioritized for elimination.'
Black Wolf decided to still help Silver Wolf seize the initiative.
"I know. Liu Ying and Ruan Mei are indeed the hardest to deal with." Silver Wolf also nodded.
The three strategies General Shen Ce just gave are respectively:
Upper Strategy: Imitate Da Li Hua to draw fire everywhere, let the fighting get messier and messier, then seize a flaw in the chaos and win fame in one battle.
But this upper strategy relies too heavily on execution; one slip-up and they'd ruin themselves, and none of the three of them dares guarantee they can pull it off smoothly.
Middle strategy: learn from Big Sister Hua's ability to navigate every situation, help whoever is losing, prop up the weak and drag down the strong, then backstab the allies at the end, catching them off guard.
This one also requires execution, but it's simpler than the upper strategy; the only downside is it's easy to get beaten up.
But thinking about how Big Sister Hua made it through exactly like this, Silver Wolf actually felt relieved.
Lower strategy: still Big Sister Hua's play — Jing Yuan makes the three of them fight separately, then they act as each other's inside agents.
For example, Xiao Hei Ta deliberately drags Hei Ta down, then sells a flaw to Fu Xuan or Silver Wolf.
But all three reject this lower strategy, because the spoils would be divided unevenly afterward, inevitably leading to internal strife.
"When you've decided, go do it. If you can't handle it, I'll step in." Hei Lang finished speaking and returned to silence.
If Silver Wolf really can't win him over, then she'll use her own method to attract Xuan Ge.
When that time comes, Silver Wolf better not blame her for making a move first.
Inside Kriper Fortress, the cannon fire had already ceased, but the ambiguous atmosphere had not dispersed.
"Your Majesty, you're too strong..."
Kokolia nestled in Xuan Ge's embrace, her voice already carrying a distinct hoarseness.
Her tall boots were soaked through with her own sweat, and the stockings on her legs had been torn to shreds in the violent storm just now.
Obviously Xuan Ge had not deliberately cherished the fairer sex.
Xuan Ge lifted her chin with his index finger, speaking seductively: "Then do you want to become strong?"
Kokolia did not answer; instead she sucked on Xuan Ge's finger and nodded.
Seeing she really looked like she was letting him have his way with her, Xuan Ge no longer dallied; along the finger she held in her mouth he condensed a Stellaron.
Kokolia blinked; if she wasn't mistaken, this should be a genuine Stellaron.
"Although Ya Li Luo was harmed quite badly by the Stellaron, that's because there was no decisive power to suppress it."
Xuan Ge let the Stellaron float in midair, to prevent that golden light from being too dazzling.
"This one I picked up in passing when I brought the Shen Wu Xian Zhou past a certain place; I gave it a beating, and now it's very well-behaved."
Hearing this, the Stellaron immediately consciously spun two circles, obediently retracting its outward-radiating golden light.
Kokolia carefully wiped Xuan Ge's finger clean, raised her hand and lightly poked that Stellaron.
"Your Majesty, do you mean for me to use the Stellaron to become strong?"
"Mhm~" Xuan Ge nodded, the corner of his mouth curling into a trace of Big Sister Hua's signature wicked smile, "You still don't know you actually have a transformation phase, do you."
"Ah?" Kokolia completely couldn't keep up with this statement.
She still has a transformation phase — what does that mean?
"To put it simply, Kokolia, you're actually Ya Li Luo's BOSS."
Xuan Ge stopped there, not mentioning her originally destined ending.
"I... I'm the BOSS?" Kokolia understood, but found it hard to believe.
If she's the BOSS, then the Crown Prince Hunters and Crown Prince Destroyers came to eliminate her back then?
But that shouldn't be right... with those two Crown Princes' strength, she's at most a nobody on the roadside.
"Try it first. Ya Li Luo indeed needs power to protect itself."
Xuan Ge held the Stellaron in his hand, looking at her seriously.
"Rest assured, with me here, you'll be fine. Ya Li Luo won't have any more tragedies occur."
"I belong to Your Majesty. I'll listen to everything you say." Kokolia lightly rubbed her lower abdomen.
Your Majesty has already given her that, although she's not sure if there'll be a result, Your Majesty has already acknowledged her, and that's enough.
Xuan Ge gave an "mm", pressing the Stellaron into Kokolia's chest.
That posture was exactly the same as when Kafka pressed the Stellaron into Xing's chest back then.
