When Zhou Shu returned to the inn, Cao Yue had already returned.
He was pacing back and forth anxiously. When he saw Zhou Shu return, he immediately pounced on him. “Uncle, you’re finally back. I thought you had an accident.”
A smile appeared on Zhou Shu’s face. “What can happen to me? There aren’t many people in this world who can kill me.”
Zhou Shu asked with a smile, “What news did you find out?”
“Uncle, I’ve asked around. Many things have happened in the Dong Family Fort over the past year,” Cao Yue said.
“The biggest news is, of course, the assassination of the Dong family’s head and then the Dong family’s marriage. There’s another thing. The Dong family wants to recruit a group of apprentices.”
Cao Yue said excitedly, “I’ve asked around. The Dong family has a workshop specially for forging weapons. The spears used by the Dong family’s knights are forged in the workshop.
“The Dong family’s workshop is recruiting apprentices. Uncle, I can sneak in and gather information. When the time comes, we can cooperate…”
Cao Yue’s eyes flickered. Ever since the Dong family’s knights’ massacre in Boundary Bridge Village, Cao Yue hated the Dong family to the core.
Every time the Dong family was mentioned, Cao Yue wished he could destroy them immediately.
Even now, Cao Yue thought that Zhou Shu had deliberately brought him here to deal with the Dong family.
Of course, Cao Yue’s thoughts were not wrong.
Zhou Shu indeed wanted to deal with the Dong family now, but his reason for dealing with the Dong family was different from Cao Yue’s.
“Infiltrate the Dong family’s workshop?” Zhou Shu rubbed his chin. “That’s a good idea.”
Hearing Zhou Shu’s praise, Cao Yue became even more excited, and he said confidently, “Uncle, I’ve thought it through. If I can become an apprentice of the Dong family’s workshop, I can secretly destroy their weapons. This way, when we make a move one day, we can use the flaws of their weapons to deal with them.”
Zhou Shu smiled without saying anything. Cao Yue was just a beginner, so there was no need to discourage him.
He would only know if this method was plausible if he put it into practice.
A moment later, Zhou Shu said, “Since you have an idea, go ahead and do it. If you succeed, you can finish your apprenticeship.”
“Then, I’ll really go?” Cao Yue asked.
Zhou Shu didn’t stop Cao Yue from applying for a job at the Dong family’s workshop.
Young people had to go through hardships to grow.
Moreover, Zhou Shu knew that it wouldn’t be long before the Dong family was in chaos.
At that time, he would just go to the Dong family’s workshop and bring Cao Yue back.
Now, Zhou Shu was waiting to see what would happen.
When Mu Zhixing’s incarnation made a move, it would be time for him to take advantage of the situation and retrieve the Celestial Thearch Sword.
Before this, Zhou Shu had to make some preparations.
In a certain inn in Dong Family Fort…
A figure was sitting in a guest room. On the table in front of him, he had drawn a map with tea.
If someone from the Dong family was present, they would definitely be able to tell that the map was the map of the Dong family’s headquarters.
Mu Zhixing had clearly never entered the Dong family’s headquarters, but he could draw a map out of thin air. If the Dong family found out, they would definitely be shocked.
Recently, the defense of the Dong family has suddenly been strengthened several times, Mu Zhixing’s incarnation thought gloomily.
He had been in the Dong Family Fort for some time. He had already planned it. But just as he was about to take action, the Dong family’s defense suddenly strengthened several times.
All the plans he had formulated previously were useless.
Damn it. First, someone suddenly assassinated the head of the Dong family, making my plan invalid once. Which bastard caused trouble this time? Mu
Zhixing frowned. Nothing major has happened in the Dong family recently.
Could the Dong family have found traces of the assassin? But from the looks of it, they haven’t caught the assassin. Instead, they seemed to be frightened by the assassin.
Mu Zhixing thought helplessly. I wonder who has nothing better to do and came to assassinate the head of the Dong family. Why does he want to kill him?
Ifyou have a grudge against the Dong family, come find me. Wouldn’t it be twice the results with half the effort if we cooperate to deal with the Dong family?
Mu Zhixing pondered for a long time before helplessly looking at the map on the table.
No matter how much he complained, he still had to do what he had to do.
Now that the Dong family’s defense had been strengthened, it wouldn’t be easy to achieve his goal.
But this wasn’t a problem for Mu Zhixing.
Back then, he had even barged into the Glacial Palace. It was just the Dong family’s headquarters.
Mu Zhixing chuckled at the thought of the trip to the Glacial Palace.
Zhou Shu, oh Zhou Shu, you’re as cunning as a ghost. Didn’t you still drink my foot washing water?
But I’ve been kind enough. I’ve sent all the reinforcements Ipromised you!
Dong family, let me show you what I, Mu Zhixing, can do!
Dong family, let me show you what I, Mu Zhixing, can do!
Mu Zhixing’s fingers landed heavily, and a drop of water spread out on the
table, instantly destroying the map of the Dong family’s headquarters..
