I Have 10 Training Avatars Novel - Chapter 166
Chapter 166: Are You Tianyu Lan or Tianyu Cai?
The Kosaka City Section Chief sighed. “Mu Qiang, you’ve only arrived recently, so you naturally don’t know that the Ghost Shadow Legion is a rebel organization that has only appeared in the north in the past few months.”
“Their leader is called Ghost Shadow. It’s said that he’s a Ninth Realm martial artist. He was the one who established the Ghost Shadow Legion. He has been gathering the people who have opposed the leader of our High Heaven Plains. Moreover, the number of their members is increasing!”
Lin Xuan was very surprised to hear this.
The rebel forces of High Heaven Plains? Interesting.
“Why haven’t we tried to surround and capture them? Leader, you can actually tolerate the existence of such a force?” he asked.
The section chief of Kosaka City was helpless. “Naturally, attempts of encirclement have been made. Back then, the leader ordered Lord Sato, Lord Tianyu, Lord Yamamoto, and a large number of Eighth Realm martial artists to carry out a large encirclement. However, we only managed to capture some Sixth Realm and Seventh Realm martial artists of the Ghost Shadow Legion. We didn’t capture any higher-ups at all! It was as if they had all escaped from the encirclement in advance!”
Lin Xuan was shocked again.
Damn, there must be a spy.
Murata seemed to have guessed his thoughts and hurriedly said solemnly, “Just keep some things to yourself and don’t say them out loud. Otherwise, it might cause trouble.”
The section chief of Kosaka City continued, “Ever since the Ghost Shadow Legion appeared, they have always been active on the northern islands. The terrain there is harsh, and there are fewer cities. Our High Heaven Plains’ control is also relatively weak. I really didn’t expect the Ghost Shadow Legion to actually all come to the southern port.”
“Everyone, clean up the battlefield and prepare to go home.” He rubbed his temples. “I have to write several pages of combat report for today.”
“And that child…” He glanced at Hirano Yuta with some sympathy.
The latter was still kneeling in front of his father’s corpse and could not calm down for a long time.
“Section Chief Fujiwara, I want to temporarily join the Secret Service Division of Kosaka City. If there are any traces of the Ghost Shadow Legion next time, I want to be the first to join the operation.”
Hirano Yuta suddenly stood up, his eyes bloodshot.
The section chief of Kosaka City walked over and patted his shoulder. “Alright, I promise you.”
…
That night, in Jingdu City, High Heaven Plains.
The report drawn up by the section chief of Kosaka City was placed on the desk of the leader of the High Heaven Plains.
He read the entire report word for word and turned his back to look at the night view outside the window. “Take a look.”
There were still two people standing in his office.
One of them was the robust Sato Take, who was more than two meters tall.
The other was the thin Forger Tianyu, who had messy hair.
The two of them browsed the report one after another with surprised expressions.
In particular, Forger Tianyu was surprised and worried.
The leader walked over and looked at Forger Tianyu face-to-face as he said seriously, “Forger, I’m also very concerned about your daughter’s safety. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely find her and bring her to you safely.”
Forger Tianyu was touched and knelt on one knee. “Thank you, Leader!”
“Take, you’ll be in charge of this matter. Isn’t your daughter in Furuya City? Get her to investigate the battlefield. I’m certain that the Ghost Shadow Legion is still in Kosaka City. We have to open a huge net and capture all the bold members of this Ghost Shadow Legion!”
The leader stared coldly at Sato Take. “I don’t want to see what happened a few months ago happen again!”
The situation a few months ago naturally referred to the situation when Sato Take and the other Ninth Realm martial artists joined forces to surround and attack the Ghost Shadow Legion, but they ended up letting all the higher-ups of the Ghost Shadow Legion escape.
Ever since that incident, Sato Take’s reputation under the organization’s leader and above ten thousand people plummeted.
Until now, he had even been surpassed by the Sky Feather Craftsman, who was not good at fighting.
Sato Take’s forehead was covered in sweat. The leader was clearly a head shorter than him, but he was extremely pressured when standing in front of this leader. It was as if this leader was a high and mighty elder, making him not dare to look up and speak.
“Don’t worry! Your orders will be carried out completely!”
Sato Take nodded solemnly and bowed deeply.
The leader watched as the two of them walked out of the office. His eyes were deep and dark.
…
On the other side.
Seeing that Poison Blade was seriously injured, the section chief of Kosaka City gave him a break.
Poison Blade was naturally not injured, but he was happy to be free and returned early.
Before returning, he passed by the market and bought some dumpling skins and pork.
However, when he was about to return to the apartment, he saw a girl in blue turn into a long alley that few people visited.
There were many girls in blue, but he was very familiar with this one.
This was because she was Tianyu Lan.
However, at this moment, Tianyu Lan’s expression was somewhat unfamiliar, as if she was a stranger.
“Interesting…”
Poison Blade immediately followed.
Soon, he heard conversation from the long alley.
“Miss, the ship is still being prepared. Recently, High Heaven Plains has been very strict with the people entering and leaving. We’re currently forging our identities…”
“As soon as possible. The people looking for me will definitely investigate thoroughly in a few southern ports. By the time they find out about Kosaka City, it will be too late.”
“Understood!”
Then, Tianyu Lan walked out of the long alley and returned to her usual appearance.
Lin Xuan saw this scene through Poison Blade’s eyes and a deep interest rose in his heart.
“Things are becoming more interesting.”
“The first time we met, Tianyu Lan claimed that she was only a servant and a substitute for Tianyu Cai.”
“But now, someone is calling her Miss. And she’s even about to leave High Heaven Plains on a ship.”
Lin Xuan rubbed his chin. It seemed that everything was related.
However, the only thing he could not figure out was…
The name that was displayed on her information panel after Lin Xuan used his High-Level Observer skill was still “Tianyu Lan”!
There was no way that she was Tianyu Cai.
The High-level Observer skill would not lie to him.
Soon, Poison Blade also returned to the apartment and started wrapping the dumplings.
During this period of time, Mu Xiaoling and Tianyu Lan got along very well. They laughed and joked in the room every day, and Tianyu Lan no longer blushed as much as before.
Seeing Poison Blade making dumplings, Tianyu Lan also leaned over and stared at his agile hands.
“How impressive. He can actually make such beautiful dumplings. Mr. Mu was a chef in the Construction Division, right?”
Poison Blade chuckled. “Why don’t you give it a try.”
Tianyu Lan smiled awkwardly. “I don’t know how to.”
“C’mon.”
Tianyu Lan clumsily picked up the dumpling skin and placed the meat filling on it.
However, because there was too much meat filling, the dumpling skin could not be closed at all. In the end, it turned into a huge and ugly… pancake.
Tianyu Lan did not know whether to laugh or cry. “What a waste of dumpling skin and meat stuffing.”
Poison Blade chuckled. “It’s fine, it’s fine. Just watch.”
Although he said this on the surface, he already had some guesses in his heart.
Previously, he had been the one cooking, so Tianyu Lan did not have the chance to cook.
This time, he had deliberately let Tianyu Lan take part in the cooking. This clumsy action seemed to indicate something.
Tianyu Lan claimed to be a servant.
Even if the High Heaven Plains did not eat dumplings much, it was impossible for to be so clumsy when she was a servant.
Something was wrong.
“Time to eat dumplings!”
Poison Blade knocked on the door.
Tianyu Lan dragged the unwilling Mu Xiaoling out and the two of them sat at the dining table.
Mu Xiaoling still did not want to get along with her father, but with Tianyu Lan dragging her out, she could not refuse.
The three of them ate very quietly and did not speak.
Tianyu Lan casually said, “Mr. Mu, you came back so early today. Did you complete the mission in advance?”
Poison Blade nodded. “I was injured. The section chief asked me to come back and recuperate.”
“Mr. Mu was actually injured? What mission is it?” Tianyu Lan said in surprise.
“It’s related to your Miss. A group of black-clothed people are chasing after the people suspected to be Tianyu Cai. However, in the end, they only managed to kill a substitute. The casualties on our side were also very heavy. Even the section chief of Furuya City died in battle.”
As Poison Blade spoke, Lin Xuan specially paid attention to Tianyu Lan’s eyes.
One could deceive others with their words and actions… However, if one did not undergo strict training, their eyes will still give away the truth.
The strange thing was that other than sadness, Tianyu Lan’s eyes did not reveal anything.
“Another substitute died. It’ll be my turn one day, right? Those terrifying killers…” Tianyu Lan sighed.
Mu Xiaoling patted her arm. “Sister Lan, don’t be afraid. Although Mu Qiang is scum, he should be able to protect you.”
Tianyu Lan did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Little Ling, why do you call Father scum? I’ve long wanted to ask about this.”
Mu Xiaoling glared fiercely at Poison Blade. “He betrayed the country and leaked information, causing countless members of the Construction Division to die. If he’s not scum, what is he?”
Tianyu Lan’s beautiful eyes flashed. “Mr. Mu, I’m also very curious about something. Why did you betray the Construction Division?”
Poison Blade shrugged. “Money, power, whatever things I can get from the High Heaven Plains that the Construction Division can’t give to me.”
Tianyu Lan supported her chin. “But I heard that the low-level martial artists of the Construction Division live the best compared to the low-level martial artists of the various large organizations. Do you know that some organizations don’t even treat martial artists below the Fourth Realm as their own kind?”
Poison Blade continued to speak according to Mu Qiang’s personality. “What does a low-level martial artist have to do with me? I’m no longer a low-level martial artist.”
“Looks like Mr. Mu is not the kind of person who cares about the world.” Tianyu Lan chuckled.
Poison Blade ate a dumpling and said indifferently, “What does the world have to do with me? I only care about three meals a day.”
His expression was calm, but his heart was in turmoil.
When Tianyu Lan spoke just now, he inexplicably used another High-Level Observer skill. He was shocked to discover that her name had actually changed to “Tianyu Cai”!
After the two of them ended their conversation and ate a few dumplings, he used his High-Level Observer skill to observe again. However, this time, her name had changed back to “Tianyu Lan”!
“What method did she use to be able to switch between these two names at will?”
Lin Xuan was rather surprised.
The high-level Observer skill that he had always relied on actually failed this time!
“No matter what, regardless of whether she’s Tianyu Cai or Tianyu Lan, she’s definitely related to Tianyu Cai.”
“This girl is very problematic.”
Lin Xuan’s thoughts were a little chaotic now. He needed to sort them out.
The next day, in the Secret Service Division of Kosaka City.
As usual, Poison Blade arrived early.
However, it was a little too early today because… the door to the Secret Service Division was not open yet.
As he waited, a tall lady in black slowly approached.
Her entire body was wrapped in tight black clothes, revealing her round and perky curves.
Her facial features were very exquisite and revealed a seductive aura, but her expression was abnormally cold.
Two contradictory auras were reflected in her at the same time.
The black-clothed lady stared at Poison Blade for a few times. “I’ve seen the Fujiwara City Section Chief’s combat report. You’re the one who provided the Great Purification Potion and helped the section chief of Fujiwara City turn the situation around, right?”
Poison Blade frowned. “You are?”
The black-clothed older sister said indifferently, “Sato Qingkong, the new person-in-charge of the Ghost Shadow Legion-Tianyu Cai Operation.”
