Once Wang Shide issued the order, the entire Zhongjun County immediately began to operate at full capacity, like a sophisticated machine.
In terms of control over their own territory, even Lin Yi, who has a map cheat, cannot compare with a seasoned veteran like him.
The first to suffer were the spies left behind by the previous god.
Many of them were still dormant and had not done anything suspicious, yet they were all uprooted.
Immediately following this was a bloody purge.
Not only that, Wang Shide also detained the ten most valuable people among them and issued an order to the entire prefecture, preparing to publicly execute them by slow slicing.
His intention was obvious: he wanted to embarrass Lin Yi!
This is a moment.
Now that he has Ouyang Jue as his backer, he no longer needs to be mindful of Lin Yi's feelings.
When the news reached Nanjun, everyone was confused, except for the wandering knight who was extremely anxious.
Although he didn't develop this group entirely on his own, they were at least comrades-in-arms in the united front.
How could he sit idly by and do nothing?
Lin Yi made a decisive decision: "These are our own people, we must save them!"
The wandering swordsman felt a warmth in his heart, but then his face showed difficulty: "The current Central County is a murky pool, unfathomable. If we rashly go in, we are very likely to suffer a great loss. We must be careful."
Lin Yi tapped the table, lost in thought: "One Chai Xun, one Ouyang Jue, when did the border region become a den of dragons and tigers?"
The wandering swordsman's heart skipped a beat: "I don't know what happened in the border region, but I smell the scent of someone I know."
The fact that so many spies deeply embedded in Zhongjun were exposed at once clearly indicates that the other side had obtained an internal list.
This list of informants could only have been obtained by his old acquaintances who were at a very high level and on the same level as him.
Quiet and thoughtful.
He's not the only old guy left over from the last era.
Since he was willing to return to the public eye for Lin Yi's sake, others can naturally choose a new master as well.
However, this means that those who have different values cannot work together, and they may have to resort to arms in the future.
Lin Yi said, "We need to find out something about the border region."
"clear."
The wandering knight nodded in agreement. Since such a thing had happened, even if Lin Yi didn't say anything, he would try his best to find out the details of the border region.
After all, the threat is too great.
Lin Yi's gaze then turned to Zhongjun: "Notify Shang Tianya to organize elite experts to enter Zhongjun."
The wandering swordsman paused for a moment: "Young master, do you perhaps intend to storm the execution ground?"
Lin Yi looked at him: "Does Elder You have any other suggestions?"
"Wang Shide made this show of force to force the young master to personally engage in combat with those two powerful men, resulting in a mutually destructive outcome."
The wandering swordsman analyzed in a deep voice: "There is another point. He has not revealed the identities of these spies. If we rush in to rescue them, it will be tantamount to admitting our guilt. At that time, my identity will not be able to be concealed, and the spies in other counties will also be in trouble."
This is precisely where Wang Shide's shrewdness lies.
As long as Lin Yi personally intervenes to save people, regardless of whether he succeeds or fails, he will inevitably get himself tainted.
As the right-hand man of the previous God Lord, the Wanderer was an extremely sensitive and important figure, especially to the Tianjun aristocratic family, whom he considered a thorn in their side.
Lin Yi replied, "When it comes to playing cards, he plays his game, and I'll play mine."
The wandering swordsman didn't react for a moment: "What does the young master mean?"
“Zhongjun is his territory. If we’re talking about being afraid to act against something, it’s not our place to be.”
Lin Yi grinned: "Doesn't he have a Great Dao Resource Exchange? I've heard so much about it. I might as well go and pay him a visit. He can't possibly not welcome me, can he?"
The knight's eyes immediately lit up: "Young master is wise."
Lin Yi mobilized a large force and led his men into Zhongjun.
Upon receiving the news, Wang Shide immediately became excited: "Young people are indeed young people, they can't keep their composure at all, they deserve to be schemed against!"
He beckoned, and an elderly man with white hair and beard immediately bowed over.
This was his third-in-command, but now that his deputy is dead, he has been promoted to the second-in-command.
"Old Joe, how's the execution ground setup going?"
The old man quickly replied, "Everything is ready. Once the fish takes the bait, our people will lure it to Ouyang Jue's side. Given his arrogant attitude, the two sides will definitely fight."
"I trust you to do the job."
Wang Shide laughed heartily: "Then we'll be waiting to see a good show."
Just then, someone rushed in from below and handed over an urgent intelligence report.
Old Qiao took a look and his expression immediately changed: "Lin Yi led his men to change course midway and did not go to the execution ground!"
Wang Shide frowned: "Not going to the execution ground? Where is he going?"
Old Joe took out a map of Central County and, after making some deductions based on the intelligence report, suddenly turned pale with shock.
"His target is the Daodao Resource Exchange!"
"What did you say?"
Wang Shide immediately couldn't sit still.
He put a lot of effort into building this major resource exchange, and it is now his proudest masterpiece.
This one Great Dao Resource Exchange alone can contribute 100,000 Great Dao resources to him every year!
This is definitely a goose that lays golden eggs.
In order to deal with Lin Yi, most of his experts are now stationed near the execution ground, leaving the exchange at its most vulnerable.
"You damn bastard!"
Enraged, Wang Shide cursed loudly and hurriedly took stock of his men before rushing to the Dadao Resource Exchange.
As for the execution ground of slow slicing, there was no time to worry about that.
Half a day later, the two sides met at the entrance of the exchange.
Seeing Lin Yi and his group approaching aggressively, Wang Shide took a deep breath and quickly forced a smile to greet them: "Young Master, it is an honor to have you here. Please forgive me for not welcoming you properly."
Lin Yi smiled and said, "Steward Wang has accomplished some great things lately."
"..."
Wang Shide's heart skipped a beat, but he feigned ignorance: "Forgive my slowness, young master, what brings you to this conversation?"
Lin Yi gestured towards the exchange with his chin: "I've heard that this is the largest resource exchange outside of Tianjun. I've heard so much about it, so I came here today to visit and learn more."
Wang Shide glanced at the fierce-looking men behind this guy and silently swallowed a bellyful of curses.
Are you here to visit and learn, putting on this show of being a demolition office?
However, since Lin Yi had said that, he could only smile and agree.
"Please excuse my humble abode, young master. It's just a small business, nothing to brag about. It's truly embarrassing for me."
"Manager Wang is too modest."
Lin Yi changed the subject, saying, "Steward Wang must have other things to attend to, right? You can go ahead and do your work without me having to worry about you."
Wang Shide: "..."
If he dares to leave today, this guy could definitely tear down the stock exchange.
Lin Yi casually remarked, "By the way, I heard that Zhongjun recently arrested a group of undercover agents. Have they found out whose families they belong to?"
Wang Shide shook his head repeatedly: "Not yet."
