What are you looking at? What about you?

At this time, Xiahou Junyu wanted to cry to death. He originally wanted to push away the two men, but he did not expect that he would be the only one left in the end. How was he supposed to complete his assessment?

Xiahou Junyu was a little angry and a little regretful. He was angry that these people did not leave him any path of retreat. He regretted that he had been too impulsive. Wasn't it too much to tolerate this matter? If he had not been in a hurry, things would not have progressed to this stage.

Right now, there were only two options in front of Xiahou Junyu. The first was to turn around and leave, so as to leave the mountain, he had to meet with the Five Departments Chief. However, under these circumstances, it was equivalent to telling everyone in the Surveillance Council that he had given up on the examination.

The other way was to catch up to Zhao Yiyang's group and continue completing his mission. However, if that was the case, then not only would he lose all of his prestige, he would also become a fickle villain in their eyes. Perhaps, he would even be ordered around by them. Secondly, he had also thrown out these harsh words and parted ways with them, no longer travelling together with them. If he were to turn back now, how would he have any face left?

Just any one of these two points was impossible for Xiahou Junyu to accept. This was equivalent to trampling on his pride, an existence that he could not tolerate, more so than trampling his eggs to pieces.

As if he had decided on something, he did not catch up with Zhao Yiyang and the others, nor did he leave the mountain to look for the Director of the fifth bureau. Furthermore, he did not intend to return to the imperial city, and instead, sprinted towards the Fengyang City.

Zhao Yiyang and Di Yutang led the team and continued forward. Although Di Yutang did not know the purpose of their trip, but as long as they could make that little bastard feel uncomfortable, he would feel extremely happy.

"I say, Old Zhao, do you think that brat will catch up to us?" Di Yutang suddenly asked.

"If he had this sort of shrewdness, I would admire him a little, but that's impossible. Since he was young, his clan has always regarded him as a favored son of heaven. Would he come back to find us?" Zhao Yiyang shook his head, laughed sarcastically, and said disdainfully.

"With his level, how did he become the pride of the heavens?" Di Yutang was surprised, his mouth agape as he asked.

Don't underestimate him. Although he is not the best in terms of intelligence, he is still worthy enough to be admired by many. In terms of skill, he even toyed with the children of the nobles in the imperial city. Zhao Yiyang was speechless towards the big size man who did not know anything, but he liked the man's personality and personality, and was worried that he would fall to that brat's hands because he underestimated his opponent, hence, he reminded him.

"Then why does he seem so clumsy in front of us? This is completely different from what you said! " Di Yutang muttered to himself for a while, then asked.

"Actually, he is the leader of a group of popinjays. To put it in a better light, he is called trying to draw people into his network and play with human nature. To put it harshly, this person is just a child's head. Like their Xiahou Family, he is hypocritical, conceited and arrogant! The previous tests all required the candidates to rely on their own abilities, and the people of our headquarters could not be mobilized by them. And this kid, with the help of the Xiahou Family and the Ninth Prince Palace, successfully completed those missions. For him to suddenly command such an elite Surveillance Council's secret army is unavoidable. It seems as if he has completely forgotten about it, and is even covered by the desire for power, so he has completely forgotten about it! " Zhao Yiyang slowly explained.

"How did someone like that become one of the candidates to become the President of the Council? Isn't this a joke? " Di Yutang grumbled with obvious dissatisfaction.

"Isn't it the result of a fight to the death in the imperial court? Xiahou Family came to our Surveillance Council, she had always wanted to cut in on our Surveillance Council, and as a result, the situation now is unfolding! " Zhao Yiyang was also helpless. If this kind of person really became the Surveillance Council's Principal, then it would be the greatest failure in the history of the Surveillance Council, and it might even bring the Surveillance Council into the abyss of destruction. But what could he do? This result was entirely a deformed product of politics, and was not something that anyone could do as they pleased. Even the headmaster, who was extremely perceptive, could not stop this kind of thing from happening, so what could they do?

"So fucking complicated! "Then this brat didn't come to look for us. Does that mean he went to look for the boss of our fifth branch?" Di Yutang was too lazy to think about it, just listening to it would cause his brain to ache. But suddenly, he thought of something and asked.

"The probability isn't high. If that's the case, then it's equivalent to him giving up on this assessment. Based on his nature, the probability isn't high. After all, the Surveillance Council had set up an examination. Once it started, no matter what variables occurred during the process, they would have to bear the responsibility and settle the matter themselves. This is why the previous few candidates died in a bizarre manner but could only be investigated later on! " Zhao Yiyang consoled.

"Why is the Surveillance Council's Headmaster so dangerous?" Di Yutang asked with his eyes wide open.

"The Surveillance Council's Principal is not a child's play, she wants to lead the entire Surveillance Council to confront all kinds of dangers that are coming from the entire continent. If she can't even handle such a small thing, then how can she lead us to welcome the provocation anytime and anywhere? If the other party were to come up with some tricks, are we going to be completely annihilated? " Zhao Yiyang explained after smiling.

"Un, that makes sense!" "Then where are we going now?" Di Yutang nodded his head, then looked in the direction of the procession and asked.

"That person was indeed a subordinate of the Elder's Hall. He wanted us to head north immediately. They seemed to have found something there!" "But it might not be related to the silver taels. I used this opportunity to enrage that brat, so as to avoid delaying our business!" Zhao Yiyang replied.

"Is that considered a secret?" Di Yutang puzzledly asked.

"There is indeed a secret, but we can't explain it to that boy because this matter might be related to that mysterious force. Therefore, the elders from the Elder Academy want us to go there immediately. Do you think it is an absolute secret that you are talking about?" Zhao Yiyang explained with a serious face.

"Fine, we have to do it. We can't do it even if we don't want to!" Let's go! " Di Yutang nodded his head, at the same time, he urged the horses below him to speed up the pace of the convoy.

At this very moment in Fengyang City, there was peace and tranquility. Of course, after a period of peace and quiet, the minds of the people gradually became lively, and after every day, in the streets, in the alleys, and in the restaurants and teahouses, there were all sorts of conversations and jokes passed down from mouth to mouth.

Amongst these banter, the most talked-about would be the interesting rumors about the Fengyang City's Commander Palace.

"Bro, do you know why the faces of the patrolling guards look so square?" Passerby A asked the person beside him.

"I don't know. What's going on? If you didn't say anything, I wouldn't have noticed. Look at their swollen faces. What's going on?" Passerby B asked in puzzlement, with the intention of humbly asking for advice.

"You don't know?" I heard it was smashed by a brick from the Commander's Manor! " Passerby A revealed a proud expression as he quietly explained.

"The strength of the brick is that great?" Passerby B asked in shock, as if he had just heard something unbelievable.

"Of course. Look, wherever I go now, I'm also carrying this piece of land. Anyone who doesn't like it will be shot at it!" Passerby A took out a brick and said to Passerby B.

"Can you let this brother experience it?" Passerby B asked humbly.

"No problem, I'll leave it to him!" Passerby A patted his chest as he pointed to a passing by.

"Hey, you come over here. Right, you, what are you looking at?" Passerby A then shouted at the passing man in a loud voice. Seeing that the man's attention was focused on him, Passerby A continued to provoke him.

"What do you think?" That person replied in a disgruntled tone.

"Pah!" After a muffled sound, two pillars of blood spurted out from the man's nostrils, and he fell to the ground, unable to stand up anymore.

"It seems like so many people have been knocked out recently in the city. They're all here for a beating!" Passerby B muttered with fear still lingering in his heart.

Inside Fengyang City.

"I heard that Commander Ni is feeling a lot of pressure right now?" Gongsun Ze was sipping his tea when he suddenly asked.

"You're still talking about it? The young master's calculations aren't light this time. After paying the madame and paying her money, he's almost out of money. He's even running out of money to repair the main gate of the mansion. All of his possessions are being used to repair the northern gate." Lan Er, who was playing with the tea leaves at the side, pouted her cute little mouth and said those words in a joking and disdainful tone, and even a schadenfreude tone.

"That's not right. Didn't Third Uncle give him money before he left?" Gongsun Ztian asked with a slightly surprised expression.

"What are you talking about? Your Third Uncle isn't much stronger than you. Give that fat shop owner a bag of broken bricks, and your Third Uncle will give that commander a hundred taels of silver. It seems like he is going to appoint a silver village to exchange for money." "If Commander Ni were to send someone to retrieve the hundred taels of silver, I'm afraid he would have spent the money just to travel by." Leng Nuohan, who was also sipping the tea aroma, placed the teacup in her hand down.

"This is called Xiang Yuan, we all have the surname Situ!" Gongsun Zaitian was not ashamed. Instead, he felt proud as he spoke.

"Your father wasn't like you guys, I think you're the one who led your uncle astray!" Leng Nuohan said as she curled her lips. Right now, she felt that it was very interesting to hit Gongsun Zaitian a few times a day.

"I am truly wronged ~ ~ ah!" Gongsun Ze Tian said in a weird tone.

"Stop wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves. When should we head out?" Leng Nuohan directly ignored him and continued to ask.

"Tomorrow morning, we will set off. I have already informed Third Uncle, and this time he will personally lead us to the north!" "As for mother ??" After hearing that Leng Nuohan had changed the topic to proper business, Gongsun Ztian stopped gossiping and joking around. He also put down the teacup in his hand and spoke to Leng Nuohan, finally asking a question that he was very concerned about.

"Don't worry, I've already settled everything for you with Mother!" But there is only one condition! " Leng Nuohan nodded her head, indicating that everything was settled with Gongsun Ze Tian, but immediately after, a sly smile appeared on her face.

"What condition?" Seeing the smile on Leng Nuohan's face, Gongsun Ze Tian's heart immediately tensed up. He knew that this girl must have been prepared and was waiting for him here.
