Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses-Chapter 71 - 70: President, who is your master?

The dappled sunlight filtered through the leaves, creating beams of light that traversed the slightly dim forest.

"Tyndall effect." Yuchi looked at the columns of light in the forest.

To be honest, venturing into this primitive forest alone at night is truly daunting.

Who knows what’s inside this forest? What if I encounter some ghostly woman who hasn’t seen a man in decades?

Yuchi thought of the array he mistakenly entered days ago, recalling the little cutie who tried to scare him but ended up being swatted away.

A sudden joy filled his expression.

What a pity.

At that time, I should have forcibly tested it; she might have been unable to resist, who knows what feelings could have arisen.

The key is that the aura on this ghostly woman was too unique, with a kind of deadly attraction.

It’s like a uniquely ethereal existence.

Xun Xian sat by the river.

Her long legs stirred the water in the barrel, which was still relatively clear.

She looked at Yuchi contentedly, and when she noticed Yuchi hiding a smile, she was speechless.

The situation is so serious now, and yet this young man can still laugh.

Is his heart made of flesh? We should cut it open and see if it’s flesh or iron.

"The point is, his laugh is so lewd."

"Probably thinking about that sister he has tucked away in the boudoir again?"

"Ugh, that’s disgusting. I’ll have to talk to Wei Qingzhu when I get back and see if Yuchi has coerced her."

Xun Xian admits that Yuchi is indeed a very outstanding young man, but playing with his sister...

That’s a bit too much.

It shatters her worldview.

Doesn’t he have Wei Yuan?

Is Wei Yuan not enough for him?

Ah...what!

And considering Yuchi might lay hands on his own sister, who knows if he has similar thoughts about me?

Recalling the usual way Yuchi looks at her, Xun Xian suddenly felt flustered.

"Little treasure, forget about me! We share a seven-type love, I’m eighteen years older than you!" Yuchi suddenly muttered to himself.

He spoke with genuine emotion.

Who knows how old this Huo Shanlan actually is, thinking about short videos seen in his past life, he chuckled.

What the!

What is he saying? Why can’t I understand a single word?

...Xun Xian organized her thoughts.

"Yuchi." Xun Xian called softly.

"Hey, I’m here, what’s up?" Yuchi’s smile remained as he turned to look at the feisty woman beside him.

Huo Shanlan is like that, but there’re more pressing issues at hand.

Just unsure whether learning about arrays requires any aptitude or talent.

Yuchi thought he could seize an opportunity to learn in the future.

"Don’t you find things very strange?"

Xun Xian said seriously.

Firstly, it’s not even winter yet, and transporting goods is normal.

Secondly, there are no signs of battle here; everything seems eerily silent.

Thirdly, everyone left with the horses and food without any logical reason?

Looking at the strange situation around, all of this seems quite perplexing.

Yuchi nodded.

Yes.

You just repeated what I said... Missy, you’re not great at picking topics.

"Why do you think they did it?" Xun Xian asked.

"No idea." Yuchi looked at the map in front of him, "Often, you can’t approach these matters with common sense."

"Indeed."

"Then suppose they wanted to steal from the merchant guild."

"They could have just taken the merchant ship, why didn’t they take the ship? Just these few items?"

Xun Xian raised this question.

If she wanted to take the assets from the merchant guild, she could have simply sailed off with the merchant ship.

"Your idea is to float that swaying merchant ship flamboyantly along the river?"

"There are other merchant guild ships on the river, the vessels from the Twelve Linked Huts all have markings."

"Once departed from here, if discovered, they’d be intercepted by other ships at once; how could they escape?"

"Auntie, you can’t steal from a store and run off with the entire shop, right?"

Yuchi teased.

Xun Xian seemed a bit dull-witted.

"...Isn’t that possible?" Xun Xian asked curiously.

"Of course not." Yuchi and Uncle Hu said in unison, dumbfounded.

Is this what she was tangled up with?

Please.

We’re all mortals, a ship of that size can’t just disappear into thin air. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

Is the waterway open for anyone to traverse?

Even the Twelve Linked Huts have to pay, alright?

Not to mention the various taxes; can ships travel downriver unimpeded? Are the river patrols eating and doing nothing?

Everywhere are toll stations, and everywhere you need permit papers. Want to bypass the checkpoints without meeting requirements?

The result is just three words.

Give!

Me!

Death!

"But it’s fine."

"There are so many of them, they can’t possibly escape."

"Let’s just wait for Uncle Chen to come back, and we’ll know where they went."

A hundred or so people, with so many carriages, thinking they can just run away?

Keep dreaming.

Yuchi is confident he can fully track these people’s movements within two or three days.

"...If you find them, what will you do?" Xun Xian suddenly asked.

"What do you mean?" Yuchi looked at her.

"I mean, assuming they stole something and then fled, what do you think?" Xun Xian asked seriously.

"I don’t think much about it. These people have to be escorted to the authorities. It’s up to your Defense Department," Yuchi said calmly.

Xun Xian was speechless.

She wanted to know this young man’s thoughts, but he just threw the question back at her?

He’s really deep-minded.

"Haha, are you thinking of taking revenge and directly killing them?" Yuchi asked in pursuit.

He has reason to suspect this fierce lady might choose to do so.

"Haha, I didn’t say that, but with such incidents happening in the guild, you should reflect well," Xun Xian said leisurely.

The implication was clear.

Perhaps in others’ eyes, you’re too merciful.

Yuchi smiled without saying anything.

Let’s see.

See what the situation really is.

Listening to the "friendly" communication between Xun Xian and Yuchi, Uncle Hu looked into the distance.

"Someone’s coming back."

Yuchi stood up.

Xun Xian, at some point, had already put on her boots.

Yuchi secretly lamented, missing the process of her putting on shoes.

Not many in this world appreciate the sight of a beauty putting on shoes; it’s quite nice to watch.

And it’s something you’re embarrassed to express.

How would you say it?

Would you directly say, "Girl, don’t hurry, let me get into position before you bend down to put on your shoes?"

That would be too creepy.

Composing himself, Yuchi looked at the middle-aged man descending from the sky and bowed, "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Chen."

"Hmm, I found them; they headed in the direction of the White Horse Post Station, which is west."

"Good."

Yuchi said, "Time waits for no one. Could Uncle Chen inquire along the western post stations? We should be able to determine their location shortly."

It’s easy to find.

The post stations are lined along the official road every at most forty li, just like service areas on both sides of a highway.

If one post station saw them but the next did not, they must have left the official road between those two stations.

It’s not hard to determine.

"Sure," Chen Guangsheng naturally agreed.

Just as he was about to leave, Yuchi looked at Xun Xian.

"Miss Xun, why don’t you go with Uncle Chen? You head directly five hundred li away while Uncle Chen starts nearby."

"One at the front, one at the back."

"Within an hour or so, we should be able to find their location."

Yuchi’s reasoning was sound.

Xun Xian agreed.

Then the two left the place, one after the other.

This way is fine, to ensure that not really seeing them at a post station, double insurance is more prudent.

And Yuchi was already contemplating how to handle them once they’re caught.

Can’t just kill them?

Definitely not.

Uncle Hu sized up the young man in front of him, "Chairman, who is your master?"

In his eyes, Yuchi was too calm and orderly.

One plan followed another.

Every plan had a backup.

It’s quite rare.

You should know that his family also has a grandson of similar age, but he’s completely incomparable.

Converses with ease, serious when needed, jokes when appropriate.

Relaxed and controlled, has a maturity beyond his age.

Yuchi respectfully smiled and answered: "FBI WARNING."
