"Hahaha." The man laughed as blood spurted from his mouth, his expression started to change, showing traces of being possessed, "You have no idea how desperate the elders are to gain immortality and furthermore, the blood can also be a source of unlimited energy. My intentions of doing so were only to make the Battle Spirit Forces stronger! As for you, you are nothing but a loser ever since young, your heart is only set on men, yet you have forgotten all about the Old Master's wishes. Instead of passing the Battle Spirit Forces to a person like you, it will be much better for me to lead this invincible force!"
Helian Wei Wei smiled, her tone was full of mockery, "Sounds pretty noble, but the truth is, you just want to own the entire Battle Spirit Forces, end of the story."
"So what? The capable can do more work." His eyes reddened, "I have been putting all my heart and soul into the Battle Spirit Forces. I am the one contributing to all the great achievements of the forces. It's all because of me that they are what they are today. So who the hell do you think you are?"
Helian Wei Wei parted her lips and said, "It's all because of you? As far as I know, the reason that the Battle Spirit Forces was able to maintain its state of peace for all these years was not because of you but was because of the dean who dealt with all the families. Apart from your excessive vanity, you couldn't cope with the pressure anymore, and this pushed you into being a double agent for the four influential families. I know the reason that you can't wait to get rid of me is not just because of the orders from the four influential families, but also due to your reluctance to pass the managing authority of the Battle Spirit Forces to someone else after holding it for years."
"You're right." His fingers were pressing on the table, supporting himself as he sneered, "Your dean is a capable man indeed, but unfortunately he is too blindly devoted to his job. All this while he intends to pass the entire Battle Spirit Forces to you just because he owes Old Master his life after he once saved him. Sigh, what is a silly little girl like you capable of?"
Helian Wei Wei's expression remained calm upon his doubts, but what she said next was infuriating, more than enough to drive someone mad, "And yet you lost to the silly little girl whom you have looked down upon. So can you see what an idiot you are?"
As expected, the man's face contorted with rage upon hearing what she said. He dragged his poisoned body and threw himself toward the direction of Helian Wei Wei.
Helian Wei Wei narrowed her eyes, preparing for the fight.
Bang!
The man was hit by a stick flying out of nowhere, sending him flying to the ground.
Helian Wei Wei looked back and saw Tu Sufeng walking toward them in his long shirt and green robes, his phoenix eyes glowing with malevolence.
"Why on earth are you here?" He vomited a mouthful of blood as he looked at Tu Sufeng in disbelief. He thought he had set Tu Sufeng up to leave town.
Tu Sufeng's aura tended to tense people up when he was not smiling. "After getting along for so many years, it seems like you don't understand me at all, but I understand you well. Think about it, why would I let you know that Helian Wei Wei holds the Military Seal? It was a test and you… you disappoint me."
"You're saying that you were here all this while and never left town!" His eyes were jerking, the realization started to sink in as dissatisfaction rushed through him. "Tu Sufeng, you tricked me, how dare you!"
Chapter 345 - How Wei Wei Fought For The Battle Spirit Forces
Tu Sufeng ignored him and with a wave of his hand, he ordered his men to bring him away.
As he turned around, he met Helian Wei Wei's eyes, and a faint smile appeared on his thin lips. "I hope you won't blame me for testing your ability to react in a situation like this."
"At the same time, you could find out who the spy was." Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows slightly.
Tu Sufeng just smiled faintly and said nothing.
At that moment, Helian Wei Wei felt that the man standing in front of her was indeed the wisest person. What an incredible man!
He was indeed the uncle of His Highness.
Everyone in this entire family was tough to deal with.
But of course, excluding the cute Little Seventh Prince.
Tu Sufeng knew exactly what was on her mind, "I thought you've gotten used to this after being with Ah Jue for so long."
"Gotten used to what? Being tricked?" Helian Wei Wei finally smiled along with him.
Tu Sufeng glanced over the papers on the table, then made some alterations to the data on it and said, "I must say that your performance exceeds my expectations. Yup, you're right about my intentions to lure the spy out with your help. But from the moment you guys started sitting down, I had actually prepared to show myself out. Then, a while later you changed the cups… In such a short time, you actually managed to sense that something was not right with your opponent, yet you managed to remain calm and collected in the end, not to mention your ability to turn the tables on him. The current you are more than eligible to join the Battle Spirit Forces."
As he spoke, Tu Sufeng passed her the banknotes in his hand.
But this time, Helian Wei Wei did not wish for any reward, instead, she just lifted her gaze to look at Tu Sufeng. Her voice was crystal clear, "The previous me used to live an aimless life. And for those who oppose my participation in the Battle Spirit Forces, they have solid reasons to do so. But now since I am part of the forces, I guess I have the right to say something. I need help from the forces."
"Are you asking for a favor?" Tu Sufeng laughed.
Helian Wei Wei shook her head. Her bright eyes were as clear as jade with determination filled to the brim. "Nope, I'm executing my right as the heir of the He family."
There she was, standing in neither obsequious nor supercilious manner. Tu Sufeng looked at the teenage girl in front of him as if he was looking at the Old Master in his younger days, commanding and combating the enemies on the battlefield. He had everything under his control without any haste or hustle.
He dazed for a moment or two before parting his lips, "Executing your right as the heir of the He Family? What a good saying." With that, he paused, "Later on, somebody will lead you to a place, though I'm in charge of this operation regarding the Battle Spirit Forces' investigation, someone else is in charge of the force deployment."
"Who is that 'someone else'? " Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows.
Amidst a vague smile, Tu Sufeng gave her the answer, "The Hei Family."
Thus…
This led to the following scene.
The moment Helian Wei Wei entered the main compound of the Hei family, Second Master Hei who was busy climbing over the wall came into her sight.
Their eyes met and that was more than enough to lead the young servant who was following behind her to misunderstanding!
"Young master, how can you be so ignorant to Old Master's words and have a tryst with women here? It's fine if you're dating any ordinary woman, but now Miss Helian has become the Third Princess Consort. You… you have committed a crime that's enough to send you to the gallows!"
Heize frowned, "Listen to me first…"
"Young master!" The servant interrupted him abruptly, "Don't you try to deny it, I won't believe you anymore. I'm telling Old Master right now!"
As he finished speaking, the servant sprinted off and vanished before anyone could respond.
Heize thought to himself, what the f*ck is going on!
"Why are you here?" Heize leaped down from the wall directly, ignoring the iron chains tied to his hands, a strong aura radiated from him. The black pajamas robe was the only thing he was wearing right then. His collar was untidy, and the slight curve at the corner of his mouth complimented his handsome features. The way he lined his smile with a hint of mischief made him look rather gentle and suave, adding to his existing charms. If any women set their eyes upon such a man, and such a captivating smile, they would not be able to escape from this kind of temptation.
It was just that H
elian Wei Wei felt that she was also wrongly accused, "Actually I came to see Old Master Hei."
"Why didn't you say so just now?" Heize moved his head closer to her, "Help me to get rid of the dead straws on my head first."
Helian Wei Wei could hardly refuse him and she was just about to lift her hands to do so.
However, she paused when she saw Old Master Hei in his elegant attire walking toward them. His face was gloomy and in his hand was a walking cane with the head of a dragon. His eyes carried a slight tinge of annoyance as he looked at Helian Wei Wei, but even so, his politeness was well kept, "What brings you here, my Third Princess Consort?"
Helian Wei Wei knew very well that Old Master Hei disliked her, yet she put on a smile, "Just catching up with old friends."
"Catching up?" Old Master Hei glanced at the bright moon in the sky, "The Third Princess Consort came to catch up with my grandson at such a late hour, does the Third Prince know about this?"
This was an obvious hint to remind Helian Wei Wei that she was married and her behavior was beyond decent.
Helian Wei Wei smiled, "He doesn't. But I'm not here for Heize, I'm looking for you actually, Old Master Hei."
"Looking for me?" Old Master Hei shot the young servant by his side an accusing look for not telling him the truth. He turned to look at Helian Wei Wei again and said, "Butler Zhang, please get things ready. Third Princess Consort and I have things to discuss in the study room."
"Yes, Master." Butler Zhang bowed to his order.
Heize wanted to follow him.
But a glance from Old Master Hei sent him rooted to the spot, "Add another iron chain for Young Master."
"Another one?" The handsome face of Heize darkened.
Helian Wei Wei gave him an unsympathetic smile before following Old Master Hei to his study room.
All the members in the Hei Family behaved elegantly and gracefully, a manner that was exclusive in a prominent family, which applied to all their guests regardless of who they were.
Old Master Hei sat on his wooden chair, blowing on the cup of tea passed by the servant as he uttered, "You came to me at this late hour, not to mention the people that came with you are the men of Tu Sufeng, I guess you're part of the Battle Spirit Forces now."
Helian Wei Wei acknowledged his assumption in a flat tone. She held a cup of tea in her hand, yet she had not even taken a sip, but she remained smiling.
There was a glimmer of admiration in Old Master Lee's eyes upon seeing her calmness, "The Wei Ze World that Little Ze and you own is not bad."
"The one in the north is doing well enough, but there's still plenty of space for improvements in terms of operation." Helian Wei Wei neither exaggerated nor belittled herself, "Old Master Hei is doing business as well, we can learn a lot more from you then since we are going to start marketing in the south soon."
Old Master Hei waved his hands, "Now the world belongs to young people like you all. Your late grandfather and I used to be like Little Ze and you - fearless, fighting against the enemies side by side."
"And that's why Heize and I can only be brothers instead of couples." Helian Wei Wei said, following his sentence.
Old Master Hei was stunned for a while before giving out a hearty laugh, "No wonder your grandfather used to praise that you're a smart girl ever since you were young. It is true indeed!"
"I still have a lot to learn." Helian Wei Wei's eyes were indifferent, yet a swirl of emotions was bottled up in her, "If I was really smart, my mother would not have died. I wouldn't have been chased out of the General's residence. Even the people in my family did not acknowledge me as one of them."
Chapter 346 - Wei Wei Conquered The Hidden Army
Old Master Hei's hand froze, holding a teacup. He was completely agitated but could only let out a sigh, "Girl, it must be hard on you all these years."
"It takes 10 years of sharpening to create a perfect sword." Helian Wei Wei took a sip of tea and spoke softly, "Sometimes one can only wake up after suffering from hardsh.i.p.s. "
She had been slapped countless times in this life.
In modern times, the disdain of her stepmother always resulted in her being beaten up unreasonably.
No one ever wanted to give her red dates to eat...
No one ever wanted to hear her talk about her sufferings.
She liked hiding in the closet to sleep at that time because she felt that it was the safest place.
She knew better than anyone that in this world, she could only rely on herself to build her own empire.
It was still the same even now.
She would not complain about those who did not offer to help.
There was no such law that dictated someone should help.
Old Master Hei looked into her resilient eyes and decided, "I will take you to the barracks now."
He might not have readily accepted Helian Wei Wei when she lamented about her prolonged suffering, despite knowing her countless achievements.
However, the girl standing in front of Old Master Hei was neither impatient nor agitated, but amicable and level-headed. Yet, she possessed a unique stubbornness.
He felt really pitiful for such a child.
After all, he heard about the rumors and gossip traveling around the Capital in recent years.
When he heard that his unfilial grandson became close to her, he was both happy and worried.
He had expected everyone else to assume that he detested Wei Wei's attitude.
The thought of making his unfilial grandson marry Wei Wei had also crossed his mind. He could at least protect her well if she married into the Hei family.
However, her grandfather had mentioned on his death bed that he wanted to see his only granddaughter turning into a useful person.
Hence, despite his multiple attempts to secretly care for her, he should not be overprotective.
Now, it was all worth it.
After he finished talking, Old Master Hei brought Helian Wei Wei to the mountain at the back.
Traveling through the thick night mist, she had no clue how Old Master Hei led them there.
Then, an extremely hidden valley appeared in front of Helian Wei Wei.
All the animals that passed through the valley entrance would flee instantly, frightened by the cold murderous aura inside.
However, it was the sound of an army drill that faintly echoed from within the mountain valley now.
This was the secret base of the Helian family's hidden army.
"No wonder everyone can't find the hidden army. They were actually hiding in here." Helian Wei Wei stared at the entrance of the valley her brow raised in satisfaction. It was indeed a good location.
Unexpectedly, just as she finished speaking, a metallic clang sounded and a hidden voice declared, " "Stop at once, our base is off limits! Unrelated people should leave quickly or you will be killed."
"It's me. I brought the descendant of Old General Helian here." Old Master Hei stood with his hands behind his back, wearing an impassive expression. However, his voice rang with commanding authority.
The soldier who was guarding the entrance of the valley immediately showed himself and knelt down on the ground when he heard Old Master Hei's voice.
"Get up." Old Master Hei moved forward, leading them in.
The soldier replied, "Yes."
He trailed behind the Old Master Hei respectfully, but the eyes were tinged with contempt when they saw Helian Wei Wei.
Helian Wei Wei ignored the guard's stare and continued heading into the valley.
"Woman, this soldier hates you." Yuan Ming's voice sounded evil as usual.
Malicious vileness tainted Helian Wei Wei's delicate lips as she gave a slight smile.
It was a bustling view, everyone was busy practicing when they entered the valley. Clad tightly in plain outfits, legions of strong men were practicing stances and training, whether solo, in duos or in a group.
Old Master Hei said something to one of his young generals.
> The young general was dressed in a kempt military uniform which was completely wrinkle-free. He had black hair and a handsome face, albeit expressionless. Besides, his skin was a s.e.xy bronze color, his lips were delicate and the tip of his nose was sharp. His dark eyes were like crystals, clear and glistering.
After hearing Old Master Hei's words, he seemed to glance at Helian Wei Wei.
However, his scrutinizing eyes were beautiful and stunning.
"Who would have thought that there is an exceedingly handsome person hidden among these vicious soldiers who spent most of their time in battles," Yuan Ming said.
Helian Wei Wei wrapped her arms around her c.h.e.s.t and smiled faintly, "Why? Do you like him?"
"I like men!" Yuan Ming blurted out in a hurry!
Helian Wei Wei replied, "You finally admitted it."
"Wait, wait a moment, I was wrong," he was anxiously trying to explain.
Helian Wei Wei immediately cut off communication with her consciousness.
Yuan Ming could only scratch against the wall in the Fantasy Space.
Whitey took a glance at him with mocking eyes.
Two people were talking in the distance.
Actually, rather than a conversation, it was mostly just Old Master Hei talking.
The young general neither uttered a word the entire time, nor did he look at Helian Wei Wei again.
Helian Wei Wei naturally knew what this meant as she used to be a secret agent.
Firstly, he did not like her.
Secondly, he played a key role in deciding whether she could acquire the hidden army.
Fourthly, he was very unapproachable.
However, Helian Wei Wei did not understand why he looked at her with such gazes, seemingly overflowing with mixed emotions.
