"Time waits for no one, we must hurry to take revenge."

Su Yue spoke with deep emotion.

"Why did you come to me?"

Lan Lu gritted his teeth, and Su Yue could even hear the sound of bones grinding.

As for Su Yue being a spy for Yu Jing City, Lan Lu had no doubts.

The focus was no longer on why Su Yue could infiltrate the warehouse during the day.

"Because you're guarding the source mine warehouse, and Yu Jing City wants this batch of source mines.

"The City Lord of Yu Jing City wants you to cooperate and help us steal as many source mines as possible."

Su Yue stared into Lan Lu's eyes and said clearly.

Destroying the source mine warehouse was obviously unrealistic.

Indeed, many air-subduing moths lived in these source mineral rocks, as Su Yue had personally confirmed during the day.

But unfortunately, he didn't have the air-subduing honeycomb stone.

So, Su Yue devised a plan.

He planned to secretly transport the source mines.

First, find a location outside the city or on a cliff, bury the source mineral rocks, then Su Yue could transport them bit by bit to the East Battle Dao through a tunnel.

If all went well, he could even enlist the help of Cangyuan Sixth Camp people to transport them.

As long as the source mines were transported to the edge of the cliff, it would suffice.

There was no shortage of places to bury them.

Moreover, those refugees from the Banner Garrison Camp were now at the Dianshi City's garbage disposal site.

Dianshi City transported a large amount of garbage daily, and hiding some source mineral rocks in it was easy.

The transportation step was simple.

The most challenging part of this plan was Lan Lu.

As long as someone was willing to betray from within, all problems could be solved effortlessly.

Anyway, before the war, Dianshi City mainly stockpiled source mines and wouldn't forge weapons.

Even if source mines were occasionally needed, Lan Lu was responsible for the tally, and the large stones scattered throughout Dianshi City could easily pass off as source mines.

Besides, during wartime, no Grandmaster would come to inspect.

The cliff is very large.

And Su Yue could freely let various plants bloom; even martial artists sent to negotiate with Jiao Qingyuan wouldn't notice anything unusual.

He could wrap the source mineral rocks with Choice Beast Hide and bury them under the cliff. The refugees just had to transport them to the designated garbage point.

Su Yue wasn't afraid of these refugees tattling.

Why? Because they had no one to turn to.

The battle camp strictly prohibited refugees from approaching.

He had already sidelined the Camp General's inner camp; if they went to the Camp General to complain, Su Yue would directly kill them.

What does it mean to have absolute control?

This is it.

Su Yue couldn't help but marvel.

Indeed, no matter how shrewd an official, they fear a rat that digs holes, especially one willing to betray from within.

This is simply impossible to guard against.

"Impossible, if the City Lord finds out, I'll suffer a terrible fate!"

Lan Lu looked cold.

This beast, was simply joking around.

"What are you afraid of?

"Once the plan succeeds, you'll be a hero of Yu Jing City. You'll receive commendations from the City Lord, who promises you might even break through to Sixth Grade and become an expedition General.

"By then, you can take Zili to Yu Jing City, and you can be together openly and happily.

"Moreover, the City Lord of Yu Jing City has a secret elixir that can help you break through to Seventh Grade, and you'll be strong enough to take down the Black Banner."

Su Yue spoke with a face full of sincerity.

The words were his to fabricate as he pleased. If he wasn't afraid of exaggerating too much, Su Yue dared to promise Lan Lu that he could break through to Ninth Grade, or even ascend to immortality.

"You should be a member of Dianshi City; why have you sided with Yu Jing City?"

Lan Lu asked again.

"That's a long story. Actually, like you, my heart is filled with hatred.

"In my lifetime, I have two great enemies.

"First, the Camp General of the Banner Garrison Camp. The heavens had eyes, and a catastrophe led to the complete annihilation of the Banner Garrison Camp, which made me happy for three days and nights.

"Second, the Black Banner of the Tree Banner Garrison Camp. Unfortunately, my limited abilities still can't kill him.

"I was originally a person of Yu Jing City, but my relatives were all killed by Dianshi City, so I endured humiliation to infiltrate Dianshi City.

"Moreover, my identity is the nephew of the City Lord of Yu Jing City."

Su Yue continued to make up stories.

Anyway, Lan Lu didn't know the people of Yu Jing City, so it didn't matter how fake the stories were.

"So that's how it is. The scoundrels of Yu Jing City indeed have sinister motives.

"It's a pity that among all your calculations, you missed one thing."

The murderous intent reappeared in the eyes of the Black Banner.

"What thing?"

Su Yue prepared for another soul-stirring blow; he realized Lan Lu was not very bright.

Even after offering such great benefits, you still won't bite?

Although boasting isn't taxed, it is mentally taxing.

"You underestimated my loyalty, Lan Lu, and the love between Zili and me.

"I'm not afraid to die, and neither is Zili.

"We agreed long ago that if our relationship was discovered by the Black Banner, we would willingly commit suicide together."

Lan Lu looked at Su Yue with disdain.

Hearing this, Su Yue frowned.

As expected, those caught up in love tend to have their intelligence lowered to negative.

Suicide for love?

Is this something a grown-up would do?

"Commander Lan Lu, perhaps you've oversimplified things.

"It's easy for you to commit suicide, but have you considered your lover? If the Black Banner finds out, would he let Zili simply take her own life?

"Let me tell you about the fate she might face.

"She could be thrown into the allied forces by the Black Banner, using her body to reward hundreds of thousands of allied troops until she is humiliated to death. Even her corpse might be tossed into a poisonous wasp jungle, deprived of peace.

"You may die, but have you thought about your six children?

"At best, your son will be poisoned by wasps.

"Your daughters would be like Zili, used as tools to reward the allied forces—can you bear it?"

Su Yue earnestly questioned.

"Do you yearn for a family reunion?

"Do you long to become a Grandmaster and personally behead the Black Banner?

"Do you yearn for your children to call you father?

"Do you want to die with a clear conscience?"

Su Yue continued the soul-searching questions.

"The City Lord's kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain; I must remain loyal."

Lan Lu's resolve began to crumble.

Under the dual assault of seduction and threats, he was nearing collapse.

"Loyalty?

"Kindness?

"What do these amount to?

"You're losing love—ask yourself, do you love Zili?

"She would die for you, and yet you're this selfish?

"In the face of love, what does kindness mean? What is loyalty?"

Su Yue adopted the tone of a Hanbang Country soap opera, questioning relentlessly.

"I..."

Lan Lu stammered as he spoke.

"Enough about me, organize the transportation of source mines in three days.

"Be prepared because after this war, you might become a Sixth-Grade Grandmaster.

"By then, I can secretly arrange for Lan Lu to go to Yu Jing City too."

After speaking, Su Yue opened the door and left Lan Lu's small house.

As he left, his back was already soaked with sweat.

As long as Lan Lu didn't kill him, it meant the subversion was successful.

It really wasn't easy.

Several times, this guy almost couldn't resist drawing his knife.

"Yu Jing City must also help Zili break through to Sixth Grade."

Su Yue had just walked a few steps when Lan Lu's voice came from behind.

"I can discuss it with the City Lord, but the issue shouldn't be too big."

Su Yue didn't give a definitive agreement.

The mix of truth and lies made it all the more convincing.

In the deep night.

Lan Lu stood on the street clutching his demon blade until dawn broke.
