  Outside the Demonic Sect headquarters……

  All the heroes of the pugilist world gathered.

  The Demonic Sect was hard to hold and hard to attack. There were not a lot of people on their side so they didn’t dare to act rashly.

  However, a verbal war was necessary.

  The Demonic Sect insisted that this had nothing to do with them. They wanted the heroes to stop framing them and using this as an excuse to destroy them.

  The heroes of the pugilist world didn’t believe them. The victims all died due to the Demonic Sect’s skills so it could only be them.

  Ming Shu didn’t expect herself to be back at the Demonic Sect in such a short time.

  As compared to Luo City, there were more heroes here. The area was filled with people and more people were still making their way here.

  Ming Shu leaned on her horse carriage and looked at Jiang Ling who was among the crowd.

  Besides Lord Zhuo, there was another man beside Jiang Ling.

  Jiang Ling managed to get herself another “concubine” in such a short period of time.

  After all the major sects and clans gathered, they had a meeting.

  “Alliance Master, please come for the meeting.” Someone came to invite Ming Shu.

  Ming Shu leaned against her carriage. “I thought that you all were not planning to call me.”


  The person was awkward. “You are the alliance master. We don’t dare to leave you out.”


  If she didn’t reveal her true strength that time, they would not call her.

  Strength speaks the loudest in the pugilist world.

  There were already many people inside the makeshift tent. Jiang Ling, Lord Zhuo, and the new man were among them too.

  “Alliance Master.”


  “Alliance Master……”


  “Alliance Master, this way please.”


  When Ming Shu walked past Jiang Ling, she winked at her. Her smile was gentle.

  She felt exceptionally happy when she saw her snacks coupon.

  Jiang Ling froze.

  After Ming Shu walked past, the oppressive aura dissipated. Jiang Ling could finally breathe properly.

  That smile looked totally harmless but she felt that it was sinister and weird. She felt……

  Chills running through her body.

  “Sect Leader Zhao, this is……” Someone asked about the man beside Jiang Ling.

  Leader Zhao was a rough man. He said in a manly voice, “This is the young lord of the Wolf Fortress. The lord of the fortress is meditating behind closed doors so the young lord came in his place.”


  “Wolf Fortress? Do you all raise wolves?”


  Ming Shu suddenly asked.

  The harmonious atmosphere in the room was destroyed by Ming Shu’s words.

  “We don’t raise wolves. However, there are a lot of wolves around our fortress.” The young lord was very polite. He didn’t show any signs of anger.

  Jiang Ling looked at Ming Shu vigilantly. She seemed afraid that Ming Shu would talk too much to the young lord.

  “Oh.”

  The atmosphere in the tent turned awkward.

  “Cough, cough……” The person who asked the question before Ming Shu looked at Jiang Ling. He changed the topic. “This is……”


  Leader Zhao didn’t recognize Jiang Ling, either.

  The young lord said, “This is my friend. Please do not worry. She is one of us.”


  They were afraid that there would be spies from the Demonic Sect among them.

  However, since the young lord said this, everyone gave him some face even though they still had their suspicions.

  After all, Lord Zhuo was beside Jiang Ling too.

  “We can start now.”


  Ming Shu was just a mascot. She sat at the top and ate her sunflower seeds.

  The rest discussed below her. If Ming Shu didn’t say anything, no one would ask for her opinion.

  To them, although Ming Shu was quite powerful in terms of skills, her age……

  She probably would not be able to give any useful suggestions.

  Mascot Ming Shu was too young.

  Regarding this……

  The mascot expressed that she couldn’t do anything about it.

  It was not her fault that she was too young.

  “The Demonic Sect is hard to attack. The method that Leader Zhao mentioned was good, but we would be heavily injured even if we defeated the Demonic Sect. That is the last thing that we want to do.”


  Jiang Ling’s clear voice rang through the air.

  “Oh, Miss Jiang, do you have a better idea?” A sect leader asked.

  “I……” Jiang Ling just realized that the people present were all people with high status. She said humbly, “If I say anything wrong, please do not take it to heart.”


  “Just say it. We need a lot of different ideas.”


  “I will speak then……”


  Jiang Ling took a deep breath.

  Her idea was to make use of the geographic location of the Demonic Sect and burn the mountain around it.

  It was the dry season now. Once a fire started in the mountain, it would spread quickly.

  Everyone discussed the idea and felt that it was workable.

  The disciples of the Demonic Sect hid in their headquarters. They were familiar with the topography in this area so it would be advantageous for them.

  Jiang Ling returned to the young lord’s side after her idea was accepted. She glanced at Ming Shu.

  “Alliance Master, do you have any questions?”


  Everyone looked at Ming Shu.

  “Yes.”


  Everyone tensed up.

  “Alliance Master, please say it.”


  Ming Shu spat out her sunflower seed shell. “When are we eating dinner?”


  Everyone: “.……”


  Don’t stop them. They wanted to kill her.

  “You all don’t provide dinner?” Everyone’s expressions were bad. Ming Shu continued, “If I knew this, I would not have come.”


  “Alliance Master!” someone shouted in anger. “We are discussing an important thing now. Please be more serious.”


  Many people looked at her with disapproval.

  Even if she was young, she could not be so irresponsible.

  “How am I not serious? You all invited me so here I am.” Ming Shu raised her eyebrows. “I know that you don’t recognize me as your alliance master. Why do you all have to act like you do? Are you not tired? I feel tired just watching you.”


  Everyone: “.……”


  Steamed Bun covered his face with his hands.

  He kept pulling Ming Shu’s clothes.

  “Why can’t we be more transparent. If you don’t like me, just say it. I don’t like all of you, either.”


  “Alliance Master!”

  “Yes?” Ming Shu smiled as she replied

  “.……”


  [Guest, don’t forget Qing Luo’s wish.]

  Ming Shu got up and brushed the sunflower seed shells off her dress. Then, she walked out of the tent.

  She gave a small smile.

  Qing Luo’s wish was to be a good alliance master. However, she didn’t say that she needed to be a good alliance master for the pugilist world.

  [……]

  The Harmony System was stunned.

  “Play by yourselves.” Ming Shu waved at them. “I wish you all good luck.”


  Everyone: “.……”


  Steamed Bun wanted to say something. However, Ming Shu had already done all this so he couldn’t do anything now.

  He left in a depressed state with Ming Shu.

  The alliance master would be dismissed soon.

  “Alliance Master, why did you do that?” Steamed Bun asked the moment he came out.

  “I am happy.”


  “.……” Steamed Bun was choked. “Alliance Master, you know that if they agree to dismiss you, you will not be the alliance master anymore!”


  “They can’t win against me.”

  “.……”


  Steamed Bun looked at Ming Shu’s back strangely. All kinds of weird thoughts flew around in his mind.
