Chapter 1115 - 927: The Decision of the Three Big Bosses

The key point is that Chai Wenwu did indeed approach Kuang Yao Bi Dao previously, attempting to persuade Bi Dao to transfer some industries over.

Logically speaking, Chai Wenwu has to admit to this matter.

But the problem is, Chai Wenwu also sensed that Bi Dao was using this as an excuse, not knowing what he was up to, making it difficult for him to admit it readily, so he could only awkwardly smile at Feng Chi.

Seeing he didn't deny it, Dongguo Shou and Elder Fan exchanged glances, unexpectedly realizing that this old man had such abilities to stir up these two Demon Kings.

Manxi then carefully scrutinized Chai Wenwu from top to bottom, suddenly regretting his inability to recognize talent. If he had known earlier that the old man possessed such skills, when Heavenly Domain was first established and forces divided, he would surely have brought him under his command. With such assistance, this competition could definitely be twice as effective.

A sense of regret filled his heart.

And Bi Dao then turned to Feng Xi, "Feng Xi, I came with Luo Xian'er to discuss industry transfer, are you here for the same reason? Oh, no, I heard your Phoenix Clan supports Shi Chun as the Domain Master of this Heavenly Domain, is that true?"

Upon hearing this, those from the Domain Mansion turned to look at Manxi.

The comment indeed made Manxi somewhat embarrassed, he hadn't expected these people to discuss this matter right in front of him, but he still perked up his ears to listen, eyes wide open.

Feng Xi replied, "With the reopening of Heavenly Domain, the Spirit Veins are spreading anew, many want to seize the opportunity. If transferring some industries here means supporting Shi Chun as Domain Master, then you are counted as well." While saying this, he turned back to Feng Chi, pointed towards Manxi and the others, and questioned, "What is the meaning of surrounding this place for a surprise inspection?"

Feng Chi couldn't quite explain and hurriedly stepped forward to salute Manxi, "I wasn't aware of the Domain Master's sudden arrival, forgive the lack of reception. May I ask the purpose of your visit?"

Bi Dao and Luo Xian'er then realized that this person was indeed the Domain Master of Heavenly Domain, subconsciously sizing him up.

Especially Bi Dao, showing quite a bit of respect towards this Domain Master, suddenly said cheerfully, "So it's the Domain Master of Heavenly Domain, is the encirclement and surprise inspection of Feng Xi due to Feng Xi committing some offense? If that's the case, then arrest, interrogate as necessary, don't be polite."

Manxi dared not take it seriously, immediately bowing respectfully to Feng Xi, "So it's the head of the Phoenix Clan visiting, apologies, it's merely a routine inspection, if there's any offense, I hope the Clan Head can forgive us."

Feng Xi instead retorted, "Someone went to your Commander Mansion under your command and caused a commotion, even leveled the house, evidently disregarding the heavenly laws and regulations, as the Domain Master, do you plan to ignore such ruffians?"

Manxi instinctively looked towards Bi Dao, being put between two fires, he didn't know what they intended, perhaps they just wanted to find a chance to oust him and make way for Shi Chun?

Bi Dao, however, openly pointed at him and said, "The Clan Head of the Phoenix is asking, answer him, explain."

Without explaining himself, he left it to Manxi to explain.

And Manxi indeed promptly explained, "Clan Head, it's a misunderstanding, Wanfu Demon King misjudged the situation, thinking it was an enemy confrontation with us, so he intervened to help, it was truly kindness, not intentional offense."

He was really unwilling to be grilled further, fearing he couldn't save face if it continued, quickly turned the topic to Feng Chi, "Where is Shi Chun, why is he not here to pay respects?"

Feng Chi hurriedly responded, "To introduce industries to Dingnan Prefecture, Lord Commander is out traveling everywhere, whereabouts unknown, unable to contact him at the moment."

The speech was practiced to the point of saying it naturally without error.

Manxi waved at the damaged property, holding his demeanor and reprimanded, "Handle the aftermath yourselves." Then he made a polite gesture towards the Demon Kings, "Since Shi Chun is not here and nobody is in charge, discussing the industry transfer with me is the same, please move..."

He couldn't sit back and let Shi Chun succeed, so he intended to brazenly poach.

However, Bi Dao gave him no face, directly throwing out a "Get lost!"

He had no intention of making any industry transfer, the visit was purely to verify if Feng Xi was really here, leaving no time to bother with this so-called Domain Master, after a few more words, he truly thought himself an important figure.

Being publicly reprimanded, Manxi's face turned from red to white, yet he dared not say much more.

Faced with other Demon Kings, he might rely on customs to boldly talk reason, but facing this capricious Mad Demon, he truly dared not court trouble, swallowing his shame, bowing to the three big shots of Demon Realm before immediately leading his people away in disgrace.

In his own territory, it ultimately depends on who you're facing.

With the scene greatly cleared, and the three big shots, including Feng Xi, having their identities already exposed, there was no need for disguise, all tore off their cloaks revealing their true faces on the mountain.

Bi Dao and Luo Xian'er showed no intention of leaving, and Feng Chi had to arrange lodgings for them on the mountain.

Meanwhile, Feng Chi transmitted detailed reports including relevant situations to Shi Chun, who immediately instructed Chai Wenwu to seize the opportunity, persuading Bi Dao and Luo Xian'er to transfer some industries over, not wasting their convenient excuse, he could ask for much, if not a lot, even a little is fine, just not let the two Demon Kings visit in vain.

What could Chai Wenwu do? Orders from above are hard to defy, he could only brace himself and stick close to the two Demon Kings.

Simultaneously hosting Feng Xi and the two Demon Kings, Feng Chi was under great pressure, wishing Shi Chun would return to take charge.

However, Shi Chun firmly refused to show his face because he knew very well that he was at an absolute disadvantage in front of Feng Xi. Some issues would inevitably be addressed face-to-face, and right now, it was impossible for him to disclose the burial site of Jin Zhan to the other party. This was something Feng Xi could not ask anyone else about, so as long as they didn't meet, there was a thin layer of paper between them that Feng Xi dared not pierce.

Only by relying on this thin paper to shield Feng Xi's sight could he partially offset his disadvantage.

In the newly settled courtyard, when Feng Chi came to personally inquire about his well-being, Feng Xi calmly asked, "Bi Dao and Luo Xian'er came for me, didn't they? It was you who released the news of my presence here, right?"

Feng Chi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, absolutely not. Both Demon Kings said they were invited by Chai Wenwu."

She didn't admit it, and Feng Xi didn't ask much more, but he understood in his heart that there were only two possibilities: either Bi Dao and Luo Xian'er came with the same purpose as him, or they came specifically for him.

If it's the latter, it's likely due to the information leaked from this side.

If this is the first time information has been leaked, he might doubt his judgment, but if it leaks every time, does he take the Phoenix Clan leader for a fool?

But it doesn't matter anymore, since the decision has already been made to sign a contract and transfer the respective assets here. This matter can't be kept secret, and it will be revealed sooner or later.

Just fearing that the primary purpose is the Demon Book that both demons are pursuing.

After Feng Chi took his leave, Feng Xi waved his hand, and a follower promptly came to his side.

Feng Xi switched to voice transmission, saying, "It's certain that Bi Dao and Luo Xian'er were invited by Shi Chun. Considering my status and position among the three of us, Shi Chun not only doesn't show up to host, but he's also uncontactable. Do you think that's possible? The arrangement by Feng Chi for the three of us doesn't look like someone without confidence; she couldn't have done it without instructions."

The follower hesitantly asked, "What does the Clan Leader mean?"

Feng Xi: "Shi Chun is likely still in the Heavenly Domain, perhaps even in this city." Turning away, he sneered, "If my guess is correct, it would be our perfect opportunity for a clandestine capture. Immediately, secretly dispatch skilled personnel and commence a covert search starting in this city, ensuring discretion. If traces are found, don't alert him; prepare thoroughly before taking action."

"Yes." After accepting the command, the follower asked suspiciously, "Could he be hiding in the official residence?"

Feng Xi: "Don't worry about the mountain; I'll handle it myself."

"Yes." The follower took the command and went down the mountain.

In the courtyard where Kuang Yao Bi Dao was staying, Chai Wenwu, tasked with entangling the two Demon Kings, had considerable success. Though Bi Dao was reluctant about Old Chai's banter, telling him not to waste words, he seemed to give face, instructing, "The golden belt, a billion-worth, give it to him."

Not a billion Sandalwood Gold, but the transferred asset capable of generating a billion in annual tax revenue.

The old man with the golden belt bent over, "Alright, your loyal servant will discuss it with him later."

Better to have something than nothing, Chai Wenwu was extremely grateful, able to give some explanation to the Commander.

After he left, Bi Dao beckoned, and the old man with the golden belt leaned closer, "Great King."

Bi Dao smiled slyly, "This Chai Wenwu is quite bold, daring to make a lion's demand from me."

The old man chuckled, "Should your servant go punish him a bit?"

Bi Dao shot him a look, "Lion's demand is fine with a bit less; he can't master this, and Shi Chun might be in the Heavenly Domain or rather in this city. Feng Xi's sneaky conduct must have an agenda, and Feng Xi couldn't possibly disclose it to us, so it must be the matter of Shi Chun. Deploy available personnel and start a covert search to discover Shi Chun's whereabouts and secretly capture him."

The old man suddenly enlightened, "Great King, your wisdom is impeccable. I'll proceed right away."

In another courtyard, Chai Wenwu had moved his attention to another Demon King, Luo Xian'er, hoping she would allocate some assets here. Coincidentally, Feng Chi also came here to offer respects, asking if the accommodation suited her needs.

Actually, neither Chai Wenwu nor Feng Chi was keen to face this Demon King. Although she appeared beautiful, there was a foul stench about her, not to mention creepy bugs occasionally crawling in and out, which was greatly distracting.

Feng Chi even fixed her gaze on the teacup she used, considering it's disposal later.

Though guests should follow the hosts' lead, Luo Xian'er was indeed unwilling to listen to small figures like Chai Wenwu. Her demeanor, matching Kuang Yao Bi Dao, she signaled the black-clothed woman to handle it, without less or more, giving the same allowance worth a billion Sandalwood Gold.

After dismissing both, Luo Xian'er put down the teacup and called, "Black Nanny."

The black-clothed woman obeyed, "Here."

Luo Xian'er also switched to voice transmission, "This Shi Chun is quite bold. Seems he had it going smoothly before, daring to play games with us, truly tired of life. He might be hiding in this city; search and if found, capture secretly. If necessary, I will personally take action."

The black-clothed woman agreed, "Good, I'll first gather his image and scent."

At her word, a swarm of tiny, dark insects flew out from under her skirt. She glanced at the mountaintop residence of Shi Chun, and the tiny insects scattered in all directions.
