Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 2108 - 500: Chen Jie: Palace Intrigue? That’s Just Boredom_2
Previously on Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!...
After speaking, Chen Jie nodded gently: "Hmm, that’s good, so we’re not completely isolated and helpless."
With that, Chen Jie looked at Peng Yingyu and Liu Futong, saying, "Big Brother, Second Brother, you see, the opponent only has a Second Turn Melt God Realm. If I’m careful, they can’t do much to me, plus they have an ally, King Wuping, who’s at the First Turn of the Melt God Realm."
"We can face them in a two-against-one scenario, and there should be a chance of success. I’ll find an opportunity to rescue Third Brother. As long as we can get him out, with his skills, the State Preceptor of Siam shouldn’t be too big of a problem."
Hearing this, Peng Yingyu and Liu Futong said, "The overseas matters are unpredictable. Fourth Brother, you mustn’t be careless."
Chen Jie replied, "Rest assured, brothers, I have counted it all in my mind."
Chen Jie thought, he had just learned from the Turtle and Crane Elders that Elder Baisun might have been to Siam, and he might have the cultivation technique for the Four Seasons Celestial Phenomenon Technique, Winter Skill. Therefore, Chen Jie originally intended to make a trip to Siam, and now with this opportunity, he decided to handle both matters together.
Having understood these things, Chen finalized his plan for the upcoming journey.
Liu Futong would return to Bright Peak to oversee the general situation, while Peng Yingyu would assist Chen Jie in guarding Huangzhou Prefecture and also take care of Xiangyang so that Chen Jie wouldn’t have any worries.
Having arranged everything, the only one heading to Siam this time would be Chen Jiusi himself.
Hearing that Chen Jie was going alone, Chen Xiaohu stood up and said, "Brother Jiu Si, I’ll go with you."
Chen Jie responded to this by saying, "Xiaohu, you can’t move. You need to stay and protect Huangzhou Prefecture. While I’m not here, only you can manage the overall situation."
This was no joke. Chen Xiaohu was Chen Jie’s first direct disciple and the person he trusted the most. Chen Jie knew he could only be completely reassured if Xiaohu, his most trusted direct disciple, remained in charge of Huangzhou Prefecture while he was away for an extended period.
After some consideration, the final candidates for the mission to rescue Fang Guozhen included Chen Jie, Fang Susu, and the persistent Wudang Fifth Hero Zhang, Zhang CuiShan.
Fifth Hero Zhang was the first to volunteer to go to Siam upon learning that Fang Susu was going. His power had increased significantly, reaching the Molten Furnace Realm.
To this, Chen Jie suggested that Zhang CuiShan should consult Song Yuanqiao to understand Hero Song’s view, so there would be no misunderstanding about his departure and nothing to explain to Wudang.
After all, this trip to Siam was quite risky.
Upon hearing that he needed to seek his Senior Brother’s approval, Zhang CuiShan readily sought out Song Yuanqiao, who soon came and expressed his consent for Zhang the Fifth to accompany Fang Susu to Siam.
Mo Shenggu wanted to join as well, but Song Yuanqiao stopped him, saying that they all had to stay at Wudang to help prepare for their master’s one-hundred-and-ten-year-old birthday celebration.
Mo Shenggu wasn’t happy about this, thinking it unfair that his brother could go overseas while he couldn’t.
Song Yuanqiao’s response was, "The others are going to rescue their father-in-law. Are you also going for that?"
Mo Shenggu was speechless at that, then said, "I don’t want to get myself into a heap of trouble. Women are just troublemakers."
Hearing Mo Shenggu’s remark, Yin Liting retorted, "Nonsense, men and women are like the Yin and Yang as our master teaches. Yin and Yang must be balanced for things to thrive continuously. If no one married, wouldn’t the world be chaotic?"
"Look at our Senior Brother, his child Xiao Qing Shu is already running around."
Mo Shenggu responded, "I want to follow Second Senior Brother’s path, upholding justice as a lone man, as a true hero."
Yin Liting strongly disagreed with this, as he still had his own Miss Xiao Hong.
Currently, Wudang was divided into two factions, those who married, represented by Song Yuanqiao, Zhang CuiShan, and Yin Liting, and the single faction, led by the Second Brother Yu Lianzhou, Third Brother Yu Daiyan, and Seventh Brother Mo Shenggu.
As for Fourth Brother Zhang Songxi, he was more adaptable, being someone who wanted to find a partner but still hadn’t.
Thus, the two factions continued to debate. Of course, Elder Zhang Sanfeng did not impose any requirements, leaving it up to each person whether to marry or stay single.
Elder Zhang always believed in governing with a hands-off approach.
This time, Zhang CuiShan was determined to go overseas with Fang Susu to rescue Fang Guozhen, showing great enthusiasm.
Chen Jie, after confirming the final arrangements, noted that the mission involved himself, Zhang CuiShan, Fang Susu, and three people from Siam, making six in total, heading to Siam for the rescue.
The rest of the group continued with their respective duties as usual.
The departure date was set by Chen Jie for two days later.
By then, all visitors could be seen off, and they could set sail. However, since all large ships capable of ocean travel from the Divine Dragon Sect were destroyed by the Siam Kingdom, Fang Susu had to order their Divine Dragon Sect branch in Quanzhou to work overtime building new warships. Without them, they couldn’t go to sea.
Fortunately, every year the Divine Dragon Sect purchased many large ships, and the specialized port in Quanzhou was tasked with crafting sea vessels. They had already completed the skeletons earlier, waiting for the Divine Dragon Sect’s order.
After escaping back, the first thing Fang Susu did at the Quanzhou branch was to order a large ship in preparation for the next trip to Siam.
To complete and launch the ship, they required more than half a month. Fang Susu took about five or six days to travel from Huangzhou Prefecture, and returning might take additional time while waiting for the ship. Therefore, Chen Jie planned to spend the next two days organizing matters related to Huangzhou Prefecture.
