High Martial World: I Gain Passive Skills Daily-Chapter 93 - 92: Thunder (Double-Length)

"The master is temporarily unavailable to receive guests."

Qingcuo said lightly:

"If there’s anything, just tell me, and I’ll convey it to the master."

Although Chen Kuang never mentioned anything about loyalty, Qingcuo had already regarded him as her third master.

In person, she preferred efficiency in communication, mostly remaining silent, only reporting necessary matters or nodding in response.

However, in the presence of others, she had to clearly define her position to avoid causing trouble.

But... she didn’t mind, yet having a Sea Breaking Realm cultivator call someone who hadn’t even reached the Innate realm as ’master’ was indeed somewhat unconventional.

At the same Sea Breaking Realm, Zhou Yanwei twitched his mouth, feeling an inexplicable illusion that the other party might be another prince.

He himself was the legitimate Second Prince of Great Zhou, with only Old Ma, an aging Grandmaster Realm, loyal and devoted.

In the previous battle against the young and vigorous Di Wu, he was already struggling.

Beyond that, there weren’t many above the Sea Breaking Realm, mostly driven by interests; they could work for him but wouldn’t die for him.

Firstly, it’s inevitable to be accused of amassing personal power; hence he must be cautious to develop his forces without much exposure.

Secondly, unless cultivated from scratch, these masters are already well-known for years, full of guile, loyalty hard to ensure.

Young experts like Qingcuo, proud and ambitious, all longing to vie for the Canglang appraisal, rarely willing to be subordinate.

It would be normal to say that the girl in front of him is a royal guardian sent to protect the Little Princess of Liang Kingdom. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

However, her ’master’ clearly referred to Chen Kuang.

This guy’s capabilities are truly extraordinary...

Without any background, he can make a young Sea Breaking Realm willingly be his maid.

If he had a bit of background, wouldn’t that be unimaginable?

Zhou Yanwei and Lin Er You exchanged a glance, the latter handed over the list:

"This is a very important item. Please make sure to give this to him, and tell him, the people on this list are..."

Qingcuo took it, glanced at it, and replied, "These are the ones the governor is about to offer as sacrifices to the Lake Dragon King."

Lin Er You froze, then said, "You know... no wait, he guessed it?"

Qingcuo nodded, saying:

"The master said if you come to him, there’s only one reason —"

"Rescue mission."

From the moment Chen Kuang heard they’d been to the Governor’s Mansion, he guessed their purpose.

Firstly, these two would definitely not go to chat, nor to cooperate.

Though Lin Er You’s purpose was unclear, his actions were indecisive but interesting.

An interesting person would certainly not do boring things.

The governor and civilization official were obviously boring people doing boring things together.

Zhou Yanwei was rare in his loyalty and righteousness, with a chivalrous heart that didn’t fit his prince identity.

The day Lin Er You wanted to expose Chen Kuang, he stepped forward without hesitation to buy time for him to escape.

Interesting yet noble.

Such a combination at this time going to the Governor’s Mansion, what could they do?

Naturally, only a rescue mission.

But relying solely on them to save so many people was practically a dream.

Furthermore, there were stance issues.

Hence, Chen Kuang was certain they would come to him and bring some good news.

What is something that must be obtained at the Governor’s Mansion, even through direct confrontation?

Chen Kuang thought of two things: the governor’s head or what’s inside it.

With Cao Bang and the civilization official around, the governor’s head was useless, leaving only what was inside his head.

For example, the complete list of those to be sacrificed.

Lin Er You shook the feather fan in his hand, took a deep breath:

"What else did your master say?"

He thought his actions this time couldn’t possibly be guessed by Chen Kuang, at least he was a player in a game against him, only to realize here he was precisely calculated like a piece on his chessboard.

Previously, Chen Kuang’s behavior was due to being caught unprepared on the boat, not having much preparation?

Yet, this further supported his conjecture.

Behind Chen Kuang, there must be a hidden power linked to the remaining forces of Liang Kingdom.

Without intelligence support, if he could deduce to this extent purely by intuition, then the sects skilled in Qiankun Art of Divination would have to acknowledge him as their master...

But this also meant it would be more challenging to win over Chen Kuang.

Because Lin Er You’s current actions would be an unexpected aid, this weight in the balance would be even heavier.

Given Chen Kuang’s anticipation, it implies that he should know Lin Er You is here with a purpose, and thus the latter cannot dominate.

Even... that hidden power should also be able to achieve similar things.

Perhaps just a little later.

Whether and how many can be saved makes a significant difference.

Right now, Zhou Yanwei felt as if he was a little white rabbit trapped among wolves on the ship...

It’s laughable that he even thought of rescuing people then.

Yet, one by one, all with hearts as deep as the Nether Sea.

Qingcuo said, "He said, your help will be remembered by him, if you want Jishao County, now is a good time."
