“Sis Feng… how should we resolve the Yan family matter?” Liuying asked Ye Wanwan with a frown.
Third Elder Li Si was obviously discontent and deliberately made things difficult for them.
“Since you’ve been promoted to this position, you have to handle it… How about this—make an appointment with the Yan family, and I’ll attend it personally.” Ye Wanwan looked at Liuying.
Liuying nodded. It would be great if Ye Wanwan could personally meet and negotiate with them.
“Oh right, do you have any news about Ah-Jiu?” Ye Wanwan asked Liuying.
“I do have some news.” Liuying pondered it for a moment before looking up and saying, “Old Jiang and I… coincidentally pa.s.sed by a branch of an ancient clan of the Independent State and might’ve seen Ninth Master… but we couldn’t confirm it since he left with a large entourage and we couldn’t see him clearly.”
“A branch of an ancient clan?” Ye Wanwan became pensive.
The Independent State had some secluded ancient clans aside from the factions on the surface.
These secluded ancient clans were all descendants of the legendary person who created the Independent State, so they had a common origin. However, due to civil war, these ancient clans fractured and were completely independent of each other now.
“That’s right, it’s the Si clan…” Liuying nodded. “This ancient clan’s surname is rather coincidental, but based on my knowledge, they don’t have a solid connection with the Si family in China. As for whether Ninth Master has a connection with the Si clan in the Independent State, that requires further investigation.”
“Go investigate it. Tell me as soon as you have news,” Ye Wanwan said.
“Alright, then we’ll take our leave now.” Liuying nodded.
“Hold on,” Ye Wanwan called after them.
“Master, do you have any more orders?” Old Jiang asked Ye Wanwan.
“You’ve seen my current situation in the Fearless Alliance. My power as the president of the Fearless Alliance is almost completely voided by those old geezers… so there’s also a very important matter aside from looking for Ah-Jiu’s whereabouts.”
“Sis Feng, what is it?” Liuying asked.
“Help me raise a large army…” Ye Wanwan’s lips turned up with an indescribable smile. “The Independent State doesn’t lack experts… but do you know what it lacks?”
“What?” Bearded Man reflexively asked.
“It lacks money.” Ye Wanwan chuckled lightly. “The Independent State has a copious amount of martial experts, so it isn’t easy for experts to earn money… It’s unlike China, where experts are lacking. How could it be easy for them to earn money? In China, mere amateurs like you could earn money wherever you go and you could become a mercenary or a captain of the hidden guard.”
Liuying, Old Jiang, and the others blushed upon hearing that.
In China, they were considered experts, but they were worlds apart from the experts in the Independent State. They were nothing.
As Ye Wanwan said, with their capabilities, they could probably only be bodyguards at most in the Independent State.
“Help me recruit people. I only want experts,” Ye Wanwan ordered.
“Master, we don’t have money…” Long-haired Man replied.
“Get some from the Finance Department if you don’t have money. The Martial Arts Union sent me a large sum of money just today; take all of it… If it’s not enough, use money from the Fearless Alliance directly. Remember, recruit as many experts as you can. Money isn’t a problem.” Ye Wanwan chuckled.
