Monarch Night

Chapter 1542: Chapter 113: 7 Taels and 1 Jin [2-in-1]

This question was thrown out, leaving the Starlight Master dumbfounded.

He certainly knew that the Guardian’s higher-ups were aware, but that was something he reported himself; however, hearing Feng Yun say it this way, he knew there were loopholes here.

Big loopholes.

Feng Yun said blandly, "Do you really think the Guardian’s higher-ups don’t know? Especially after so many family members of our Wei Wo Zheng Sect returned... And after so many family members died here... Hmm?"

Sweat appeared on the Starlight Master’s face.

This question, he had considered many times, but had never thought it through due to identity issues and position.

"It was short-sighted of me."

The Starlight Master said.

"Vice Sect Master Yan understands very well that this Escort Agency can’t be hidden from the Dongfang Strategist. If the Dongfang Strategist wanted to uproot it, he could easily do so. So, why does Vice Sect Master Yan still go out of his way to cultivate it?"

Feng Yun’s voice was calm, but word by word, it exploded like a thunderstorm in the heart of the Starlight Master.

"And the Dongfang Strategist of the Guardian certainly knows, but knowing this, why does he pretend not to see it? Allowing the Escort Agency to develop here? Even fanning the flames?"

Feng Yun said calmly, "You should know that the Dongfang Strategist, upon knowing, not asking questions is already fanning the flames, you understand this, right?"

"So, what exactly are these two bigwigs doing?"

Feng Yun said indifferently, "Starlight, you are now in the bigwigs’ game. And the direction of their game, as of now, is unknown."

"Yes! Thank you for Young Master Yun’s guidance."

The Starlight Master, cold sweat dripping, said, "I was too optimistic before."

"It’s not your fault because after all, you don’t understand the situation from headquarters."

Feng Yun said, "Of course, the Dongfang Strategist can’t plant an inside agent in the presence of the Five Spirits Gu, much less rise to a high position within the Divine Sect and gain power; but the Dongfang Strategist’s infiltration and lurking in our headquarters must be incredibly powerful!"

"After all, there are too many people. Unable to manage, unable to control."

Feng Yun said, "Moreover, not everyone qualifies to have the Five Spirits Gu planted in them. The news from the top and the actions inside the sect can only be guessed, but the movements of major events, both sides will inevitably detect... any slight movement. And I am more inclined to believe that the Dongfang Strategist’s intelligence surveillance on our Wei Wo Zheng Sect is guaranteed to have no blind spots."

He gave a meaningful look to the Starlight Master: "Especially, your Escort Agency involves so many Shi Families."

"Yes."

The Starlight Master’s heart throbbed, and he asked, "Since that’s the case, why does the Worldwide Escort Agency still exist?"

Feng Yun said calmly, "You are not one of my men, so instructing you up to now is already enough."

"Yes, thank you, Young Master Yun."

The Starlight Master just thanked him and saw Feng Yun smile, saying, "But I can tell you, what the two bigwigs are doing, I have not figured out. So... I said, you can step more boldly. Since your Worldwide Escort Agency poses no threat to the Guardian Continent but also facilitates the business dealings of the Guardian Continent, and both bigwigs know and allow it, why not be bolder?"

Feng Yun smiled and said, "Although I don’t know what the bigwigs are thinking, if I were a bigwig... since they have tolerated you up to today, as long as your Worldwide Escort Agency doesn’t do too much for the Wei Wo Zheng Sect, you can be tolerated to continue."

"I understand."

Feng Yun smiled.

Within his heart, he indeed felt that this Starlight was indeed a rare talent.

Throughout the conversation, what he liked most was Starlight’s choice of silence at the right times.

Being silent when not answering questions was a basic operation.

But being silent when one could answer to showcase themselves showed restraint.

Being silent on topics involving higher-ups was a matter of discretion.

Being silent when it came to conclusions was sensible.

Throughout the conversation, Feng Yun’s evaluation of Starlight’s performance was perfect.

So, he felt it more of a pity.

"Starlight, since I met you today, and you have enough ability too."

Feng Yun assumed an earnest listening posture, saying, "Some things, I’m higher up, but can’t see clearly, and you are at the bottom, looking up at the Jade Palace, you should have your own insights, right?"

The Starlight Master’s heart jumped.

It’s coming!

Is he going to examine himself with his own situation like Feng Xing, Yan Beihan had done?

"I only have admiration, desire, and imagination. Looking at the top of our sect is the same feeling ordinary people have while imagining an immortal’s abode."

The Starlight Master cautiously made a joke.

Feng Yun immediately laughed with interest, tapping his finger, "Starlight, you’re being dishonest."

The Starlight Master smiled bitterly, "In front of Young Master Yun, on this question, I wouldn’t dare be honest."

Feng Yun laughed heartily, rocking back and forth in joy.

He stopped after a long while, wiped away a bit of tear from laughing, and said, "Starlight, it’s been a long time since I laughed like this."

The Starlight Master kept a smiling façade, thinking in his heart: That’s because your sense of humor is too low... if you were with Dongyun Yu, you’d be laughing open-mouthed every day...

"Let me ask you this. Among our generation in the Main Sect, how many do you know?"

Feng Yun asked.

The Starlight Master pondered for a moment and said, "I basically know everyone, but too many, without meeting, you wouldn’t know who they were."

Feng Yun smiled blandly, "It seems Feng Xing has told you a lot."
