Nightmare Apostle

This world isn’t about fighting and killing, it’s about human relationships. He believes that even Chief Commissioner Gu can understand his predicament.

But then again, the Black Buddha Mother Sect values talent more than the Patrol Defense Office.

That Black Buddha Mother, as the top expert among the Ten Thousand Religions, even personally sent him an invitation.

This is better than the Patrol Defense Office. The Great Saint Bodhisattva Position is at least equivalent to a Provincial Bureau Chief compared to the Patrol Defense Office, a first-level full-time position, while he’s only mixed up to a second-level full-time position.

Of course, Yang Xiao has no grievances about this, for serving the people means disregarding personal gains and losses. He’s just saying it casually.

Besides, it’s too late to change allegiance now. That dog of a Sect Master first defected to the Black Buddha Mother, cutting off his retreat.

"Sui, was the loss from the curse incident significant?" Yang Xiao asked further.

"Not small, over ten people died, and most importantly, the expert team responsible for decoding was wiped out, with not even the assistants spared. Gathering such a team again in a short time is difficult and will require time," Sui Chengguo explained.

"How long will it take?"

"We’ve already found suitable candidates, and the new team can be assembled within a week. Completely decoding the final position will take... at least another week."

"From now, it could be quick in ten days, slow in half a month. I promise to hand over the position to you," Sui Chengguo knew how important this matter was to Yang Xiao, and dared not delay.

Considering the time, half a month works too. This matter can’t be rushed, especially since he has to return to the Provincial Bureau in two days and lead the team to the Esoteric Sect to welcome back Elder Sheng, reclaiming the Academy.

Yang Xiao planned well. After the Yiling Academy affair is resolved, he can ask Elder Sheng to help deal with the Master of Bone Pavilion and reclaim the Ghost Lantern Rod.

Although the experts from the Patrol Defense Office are trustworthy enough, whether for personal feelings or actual effort, he trusts Elder Sheng more.

"There’s another thing I need to tell you." Sui Chengguo lowered his voice, "This time the Han Family attacked us with an insider leaking information to them."

"They chose their timing cleverly, that night many of our experts weren’t home, leaving less than half of the experts in town."

Yang Xiao hated traitors all his life, "Who leaked information to them?"

"It was Marquis Zhengdong, before the night of the attack they proactively invited us to help transport a batch of goods, offering a very good price. I agreed, which resulted in dispersing many of our experts." Sui Chengguo felt a gut-wrenching anger every time he thought about it.

"Again, these two guys never seem to learn their lesson, refuse to take a beating!" Yang Xiao slammed the table in anger.

Yang Xiao isn’t petty, but such things must never be tolerated. In the future, since he’ll be away for a long period, leaving them around will be a disaster sooner or later.

"What is the attitude of the Peace Hotel?" During this period, he has been away, and Sui Chengguo has been his representative to contact the hotel for meetings, always going wearing a mask.

As a result, several experts who joined the Sun and Moon Divine Sect later mistakenly thought Sui Chengguo was the Sect Hierarch, the revered Pingxi Marquis.

Although Sui Chengguo has explained several times, it had little effect.

"They joined forces with outsiders to act within Xiang Ma Town, violating the rules. After I inquired with the hotel, they didn’t interfere, implicitly allowing us to retaliate."

"But there’s one point, the hotel won’t dispatch Ghost Slaves to help us, they remain neutral. If we can wipe out these two families, the hotel will take half of the wealth they accumulated over the years," Sui Chengguo explained.

"It’s really dark, truly the style of the Chamber of Commerce," Yang Xiao sneered.

These matters can’t be reasoned out with Second Demon Uncle, because it’s not something he can intervene in.

Simply put, Second Demon Uncle is just the gatekeeper of the Peace Hotel, and he must act according to the hotel’s rules.

Otherwise, the agreement between them would be nullified, and Second Demon Uncle would be kicked out of the hotel, no longer receiving protection.

"How many people do we have now?" Yang Xiao asked softly, having murderous intent. He had scores to settle with Marquis Zhengdong and An Nan Marquis.

Upon hearing this, Sui Chengguo smiled coldly, "Knowing you’d return, I’ve already called back quite a few people. Our forces are strong, with my Ghost-level Apostle included, there are 8 in total, two of whom have strength comparable to mine."

"Good, leave two trustworthy ones to guard the house, the rest act at 2 AM. You lead the raid on An Nan Marquis’ house; Marquis Zhengdong is mine."

"Both sides move simultaneously, we must eliminate them completely, not letting them escape." Yang Xiao gave the order.

"Understood, I’ll notify them immediately." Sui Chengguo stood up.

"Wait!" Yang Xiao stopped him, "Don’t publicize it, notify them half an hour before action to avoid any leaks. I’ll first contact Senior Brother Qingfeng to ask for his opinion."

Upon hearing this, Sui Chengguo nodded, "Good, I have identified a spy in our ranks for Marquis Zhengdong, we can use this spy to relay some false information."

"Good, you go do that now, and I’ll contact the hotel, it’d be best if the Ghost Slaves could assist us from the outside."

To act in Xiang Ma Town, seeking the hotel’s approval is a prerequisite, and Yang Xiao decided to do things by the book.

Soon, he got in touch with Senior Brother Qingfeng, who clearly told him that they wouldn’t hinder their actions, but cannot let things get out of hand and cause large-scale damage.

With such a poor business environment, if there’s fighting, no one will dare come to Xiang Ma Town for trade. Then, who will the hotel collect money from?
