Chapter 89: Chapter 88: To the Southern Domain! Part 1

Bai Jingjing sized up the man in front of her. Sometimes he was completely unserious, but at other times, he was more shocking than anyone else, and he also aroused one’s curiosity, making one want to know him more and more.

"You seem to really enjoy brown-nosing," Bai Jingjing said.

Fang Yi replied, "You’re wrong about that; I usually don’t even like it when ordinary people try to brown-nose me."

Bai Jingjing said, "It seems I’m honored that you’re brown-nosing me."

Fang Yi shamelessly said, "That’s right, who says you’re an ordinary person." He secretly took pride in his flattery skills, thinking they were perfect.

Bai Jingjing was both amused and exasperated, saying, "All right, since we’re done with the small talk, let’s talk business." She knew Fang Yi wouldn’t have called her out without a good reason.

And Bai Jingjing was right; Fang Yi wouldn’t have called her without cause—he would’ve avoided it if he could, driven by necessity.

"Alliance Hierarch Bai, if I may ask bluntly, how is the scale of the White Tiger Alliance nowadays?" Fang Yi probed.

With a serious expression on her lovely face, a flash of suspicion in her beautiful eyes, she still responded, "Among the five major alliances, my White Tiger Alliance is merely ranked fourth."

Fang Yi exclaimed, "Oh, so you’re the second last then."

Bai Jingjing: "..."

Seeing that Bai Jingjing looked somewhat displeased, Fang Yi immediately explained with a smile, "It was just a casual remark, don’t take it to heart."

Bai Jingjing said, "I might say I don’t mind, but my heart will definitely mind a lot."

"Uh... well..." Fang Yi said, "The reason I wanted to see you tonight is to ask whether you have ever thought about becoming number one."

Bai Jingjing’s beautiful eyes suddenly narrowed. "What do you mean?"

Hooked.

Fang Yi asked, "Have you heard of the Black Water Alliance?"

Bai Jingjing feigned ignorance: "Black Water Alliance..."

Bai Jingjing had naturally heard of the Black Water Alliance; if she hadn’t, she wouldn’t deserve to be an alliance leader.

Once Bai Jingjing got talking, nobody could stop her, and Fang Yi didn’t try to. While she talked, he attentively listened and even leisurely lit a cigarette.

After finishing her talk, Bai Jingjing grabbed a bottle of liquor, took two swigs, and then said sharply, "When do you plan to make your move?"

Fang Yi was startled: "When do I plan to make a move?" He was confused by Bai Jingjing.

Bai Jingjing scoffed, "With all this information about the Black Water Alliance you got from me, and your curiosity about them, I absolutely don’t believe you don’t have ambitions for the Black Water Alliance."

Fang Yi was secretly amazed; Bai Jingjing was really astute, able to see through his intentions. Since that was the case, Fang Yi decided to go with the flow and smiled, "Would the Alliance Hierarch be interested?"

Bai Jingjing gave a noncommittal smile. "What do you think?"

Fang Yi said, "Such a big piece of pie, Alliance Hierarch, you must be interested."

Bai Jingjing laughed, "Although Moon City and Southern Domain City are very close, and my White Tiger Alliance also wants to grow, it’s quite ridiculous to have me mobilize the full force of the alliance to fight the Black Water Alliance in a foreign territory, based merely on your word."

Fang Yi shook his head, "I don’t want to oppose the Black Water Alliance; I want to take them down."

Bai Jingjing’s eyes twitched: "You’re saying... take them down?"

Fang Yi slowly nodded.

Bai Jingjing took in a sharp breath, looking at him as if he had lost his mind.

"What about the distribution?" Bai Jingjing looked him straight in the eye. "How will it be divided?"

Fang Yi said indifferently, "It’s all yours."

"It’s all mine?"

"Yes!" Fang Yi nodded seriously, "As long as the Black Water Alliance is annihilated, it’s all yours!"

Bai Jingjing couldn’t help but be tempted, but suddenly, she thought of something and said, "I want to ask if Shen Binan has anything to do with this."

Fang Yi knew she was looking for a way out. He nodded and said, "It has her suggestion as well as mine. Alliance Hierarch, this is a pie falling from the sky. If you don’t accept it, I’ll feel sorry for you."

You’re feeling sorry for yourself... Bai Jingjing said, "I’ll give you a response tomorrow."

Fang Yi smiled, looking especially happy, "Good!"

Fang Yi didn’t worry that Bai Jingjing wouldn’t agree, because... the interests of the Black Water Alliance were enough to drive anyone mad.

...

The next day, Bai Jingjing decisively gave Fang Yi her response—yes!

The deal was struck.

Then Fang Yi went to meet Bai Jingjing, but found that not only had she brought Meng Wei, she had also brought a young man.

This young man looked at Fang Yi with his nostrils, looking down on him from above, his eyes full of disdain and hostility towards Fang Yi.

So Fang Yi looked at Bai Jingjing, and through his gaze he asked, "Who is this idiot?"

Bai Jingjing whispered to Fang Yi that this young man was Ye Ziqing, a grandson of an old member of the alliance and her childhood friend. Now Fang Yi understood.

Fang Yi suddenly recalled what Lin Mengyan had told him, that Bai Jingjing had come to Moon City with an old man to establish the White Tiger Alliance. Could it be that this Ye Ziqing was that old man’s grandson?

The three of them sat down, and as soon as they did, Ye Ziqing knocked on the table and said, "Fang Yi, right? I warn you to stay away from Jingjing, or I’ll kill you."

"Uh..." Fang Yi looked at Bai Jingjing and found her expression very innocent. He thought it better not to argue with the idiot.

Fang Yi then began discussing with Bai Jingjing how to attack the White Tiger Alliance.

"Having everyone go to Southern Domain City is impossible. I need to keep people here to guard our turf," Bai Jingjing said.

Fang Yi nodded in agreement, "Not everyone needs to go, just half will do."

Bai Jingjing said, "Don’t worry, I’ll have Meng Wei pick the best people from the alliance."

Fang Yi nodded, then added, "Regarding the headquarters of the Black Water Alliance, I’ve already got the details. To catch the thief, we first need to catch the king..."

The two were deeply engrossed in their discussion, completely excluding Ye Ziqing, who suddenly got angry, slammed the table, and interrupted their discussion.

Fang Yi wasn’t the least bit upset and smilingly said, "Great, how about you lead the charge, Young Master Ye?"

Ye Ziqing coldly replied, "Of course!"

Due to Ye Ziqing’s interjection, the discussion between Fang Yi and Bai Jingjing soon ended.

After seeing Fang Yi off, Ye Ziqing immediately grinned and said, "Jingjing, I’ve already booked a table at Purple Vine Bay. Let’s go together." He gazed eagerly at Bai Jingjing.

Bai Jingjing shook her head and said, "Sorry, Ziqing, I still have things to do. You go ahead."

Watching Bai Jingjing leave, the smile on Ye Ziqing’s face faded, turning incredibly cold. He took out his phone and made a call, which was promptly answered.

"Young Master Ye," a young man’s voice came from the phone.

"Ren Hao, do you have time? I’d like to meet with you," Ye Ziqing said coldly.

"Of course, I await the honor of your visit," Ren Hao said, laughing over the phone.
