Because the value of these three things was immeasurable: an ancient secret, an immortal cultivation legacy of unknown grade, and such a large fragment of a stone carving map. Although the value of the stone carving map fragment was unknown, Lu Chenxing could make any demands he wanted based on the first two alone.
Therefore, Bai Yuntian didn't say things like, "I will help you fight for it," but instead directly said, "I will help you get it back."
Hearing this, Lu Chenxing grinned, "Alright, then I won't be polite. I need a complete secret realm core and a branch of the World Tree. If not, other similar items will do, is that okay?"
Bai Yuntian didn't ask further, only nodded and said, "Good."
Lu Chenxing was quite happy to exchange these things, which were useless or even dispensable to him, for the cultivation resources he wanted. The smile on his face deepened.
Then he brought up Yan Pingsha's matter, "The last thing is about the Nufeng Guild. I already have some initial ideas about collecting evidence. It's like this..."
Lu Chenxing's method wasn't complicated. It was to find two people to be undercover agents, entering the Nufeng Guild through Yan Pingsha's introduction. At the same time, undetectable array patterns would be carved on those two people, and then they could directly provide a live broadcast!
"This method is indeed good." Bai Yuntian nodded first, then asked, "But who will set up this array?"
"My idea is to ask Senior Long to set up this array. With Senior Long's level as a sixth-tier array master, he should be able to do it silently," Lu Chenxing said, explaining his idea.
Bai Yuntian nodded again, and finally looked at the two and asked, "What about the undercover candidates? Have you decided?"
"Yes, I happen to have two friends from Tianyuan City. They are suitable candidates," Lu Chenxing said with a smile.
At this moment, Yan Pingsha stood by, stunned and silent, because before Lu Chenxing spoke, she didn't even know about this plan, or that Little Lu had already quietly selected the people to execute the plan.
Watching Lu Chenxing holding the child and smiling as he spoke of the plan, she felt her throat itch, as if there was something she wanted to say, but she herself didn't know what she wanted to say.
So in the end, she suppressed that feeling and listened carefully to Lu Chenxing's plan.
......
Soon after, two exclamations came from the Card Shop, "What! We're going to be undercover agents in a Level 4 medium-sized guild?"
The two spoke in unison, staring wide-eyed at Lu Chenxing and Yan Pingsha, while pointing at themselves. For a moment, a thousand words turned into one: "Me?"
By this time, Lu Chenxing had already placed Xiao Zhi on his bed, tucked her in, and let her sleep. Hearing their question, he nodded affirmatively, "Yes, you two!"
"No, no, no, I think this choice of people needs careful consideration. I'm afraid we can't handle it!" Wang Hu rubbed his bald head, saying with some difficulty.
He knew his own strength. Before, when he was alone, he also thought about joining a guild, but he couldn't even pass the assessment for a Level 3 guild, let alone a Level 4 medium-sized guild!
Because his strength was really a bit too ordinary; it made no difference whether he was there or not. The only thing that might set him apart from others was having a warm heart, which led him to meet his second and third siblings.
He admitted that he had no other outstanding qualities.
"Don't worry, Principal Bai and Senior Long will both be involved this time. Your safety is guaranteed, and there will be many rewards after you complete it," Lu Chenxing explained.
Wang Hu, however, rubbed his bald head again and said with a wry smile, "Boss Lu, it's not about that, it's...they might not even want us at a Level 4 guild!"
"Regarding that, you can rest assured." Yan Pingsha spoke at this moment, her voice much softer, seemingly because she was asking for a favor. She looked at the two and said, "There's something wrong with that guild. What they want are social freelancers like you, whose talents aren't particularly outstanding."
"And since I'm bringing you, they will accept you. You don't need to worry about that."
"Ah?" Wang Hu was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously said, "There are guilds like that?"
"We have the same question as you, which is why we need you to help us collect evidence." Lu Chenxing said with a smile, "At that time, Senior Long will engrave subtle arrays on your bodies. While ensuring your lives are safe, it will simultaneously broadcast the situation around you. Is that okay?"
Hearing this, Wang Hu and Lu Hai exchanged glances, then said, "If that's the case, then we'll do it!"
In fact, this job was much easier than the commissions they had taken before. With big shots providing protection, they didn't need to risk their lives or anything. Even if Lu Chenxing hadn't asked, they would have taken it.
Seeing that the two agreed, Lu Chenxing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Actually, it didn't matter if the two didn't agree; he would have found others. But because Wang Hu and Lu Hai were from Tianyuan City, and no one here knew them, it was more suitable for them to be the undercover agents, which is why he asked them directly.
"But Boss Lu, I have one more thing I want to ask you," Wang Hu suddenly said.
Lu Chenxing smiled casually, "Go ahead, I'll definitely answer if I can."
So Wang Hu rubbed his hands and asked somewhat awkwardly, "I heard you plan to build a guild? I wonder if we can join."
This question was unexpected for Lu Chenxing. He remembered he hadn't told them about his plan to build a guild yet, but then he saw Guo Jiahao, who was already making cards at the card-making table, and understood. This matter must have been mentioned by Little Fatty.
After all, he had only told Little Fatty about it before.
At the same time, he felt a slightly nervous gaze directed at him. He looked back and happened to see Yun Qiaoqiao avoiding his gaze.
This made him feel a bit amused, so under the nervous gazes of the three, Lu Chenxing said with a smile, "Of course you can!"
Wang Hu and Lu Hai's faces visibly brightened, but even though they were very happy, he still said seriously, "Boss Lu, if you don't want to accept us, you don't have to force yourself. I don't want to make things difficult for you and Yun Qiaoqiao."
Clearly, he thought that Boss Lu agreed to accept them out of consideration for Yun Qiaoqiao, fearing that it would make things difficult for her with her teacher, which is why he said that. After all, she had just become an apprentice, and bringing two burdens along would be somewhat awkward.
And Yun Qiaoqiao, whose smile had relaxed due to Lu Chenxing's answer, now had her smile freeze on her face, "Big Brother, you..."
