Chapter 896: Leaving the Seclusion

The dusty door opened, and the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone in. Chu Yang walked out of the door and stretched greatly.

Unknowingly, he had been in seclusion for several months. These days, he started refining alchemy and meditating every day, which made Chu Yang almost forget what color the sky outside was.

Looking up at the blue space and breathing in the scent of flowers in the air, Chu Yang felt his spirit shaken.

Although this retreat did not completely break through the bottleneck of the late Jindan period, overall it was still a lot gained. Some of the past things gradually settled, making Chu Yang's strength even further.

Chu Yang came to Su Yue and Jiang Xiaoyuan's room. The door was closed, and Chu Yang could feel the fluctuations of the formation.

Obviously, during the few months he was in seclusion, the two girls were also practicing day and night.

Chu Yang really wanted to know how the two women were practicing, but unfortunately it was not convenient to disturb them at this time. After all, at the critical moment of cultivation, if they were disturbed, all their previous efforts would be lost.

"I don't know if Xiaoyuan can break through to the middle stage of Jindan this time."

Chu Yang talked to himself as he walked.

Jiang Xiaoyuan is already close to the middle stage of the golden elixir, and he is only missing that final kick. I believe he will improve this time.

After sitting in the yard for a while, Chu Yang actually felt lonely, so he planned to go out and take a look, but he actually walked towards the direction of the guard camp.

Facing him, Chu Yang saw a person. This person was Qin Yi. His brows were furrowed and he seemed to have something on his mind.

Even when the two of them passed each other, Qin Yi didn't even look at Chu Yang. Instead, Chu Yang reached out and pulled Qin Yi, and then Qin Yi turned around and saw Chu Yang.

"You...retreat is over?" Qin Yi's eyes lit up and he said in surprise.

Chu Yang nodded and said, "You're not here to see me, are you? Why haven't we seen each other for a few days? Do you miss me?"

When asked by Chu Yang, Qin Yi's face showed a bit of panic. He shook his head and said: "No way, I just have something I want to discuss with you."

"Isn't this the matter of City Lord Dongfang Hao again? I've already told you, what do you care about him? He's been in seclusion all his life and doesn't care about our affairs. All he needs to do is pay his salary on time." Chu Yang looked at his expression and said nonchalantly.

In fact, the current operation of Lanjiang City has almost nothing to do with Dongfang Hao himself. Dongfang Hao's long-term neglect has allowed the city lord's mansion to enter a state of autonomous operation.

Qin Yi was a little silent, and finally said: "There must be something fishy about this matter. We need to find out. A master like Dongfang Hao will never be silent for so long."

"You go and do it. It has nothing to do with me. I'm going to the guard camp to have a look. Do you want to come with me?" Chu Yang asked Qin Yi.

Qin Yi thought for a while and nodded: "I came over there just now, and I'm fine now. Let's go and have a look together."

The two of them approached the guard camp. Chu Yang's eyes lit up. Training was going on in full swing on the school grounds. Those Qi-refining practitioners were training with their weapons clanking, and there was a smell of iron blood.

Compared to a few months ago, these people looked very experienced, with a rough style in their movements, sitting and lying down.

When the guards who were training saw that Chu Yang was coming, they immediately became energetic and came over to say hello one by one. Especially the few who were promoted by Chu Yang came over one by one to report to Chu Yang.

Although Chu Yang doesn't show up, these people are like Ming Jing in their hearts. No matter when, they have Chu Yang's mark on them.

Even though Yang Ke is now in charge of daily affairs, these people still only identify with Chu Yang. They know very well that their status was given by Chu Yang.

"Very good, very good, you are all good."

Chu Yang was in a good mood, because the escort team developed almost exactly according to his vision, and what it looks like now is almost as Chu Yang expected.

"Now the size of the escort has grown to more than 300 people. These people are all elites. But I heard that you ordered Yang Ke to select 30 of these people for secret training?"

Although Qin Yi is the deputy commander, he doesn't come often and he doesn't know some things clearly.

He just heard some rumors, and now he took the opportunity to ask Chu Yang for confirmation, because he was really curious, what on earth is Chu Yang going to do?

Does secret training really work?

"You don't understand. This is called special warfare thinking. The elites selected from these people will undertake some special operations tasks, such as intelligence, assassination, tracking, poisoning, etc. Some shady means can be used It will be used, and the equipment of the special operations team will be more sophisticated and the deployment will be more concealed. "

Chu Yang did not hide his plan from Qin Yi, but revealed his plan.

Chu Yang suddenly came up with this idea in the middle of his retreat. He scribbled out a rough plan and handed it to Yang Ke in person.

Chu Yang still clearly remembers Yang Ke's expression of shock, excitement, and longing when he saw this plan.

Chu Yang hasn't seen what this special operations team looks like yet, and he doesn't know what the training progress is. However, a large part of the elixirs that Chu Yang has refined these days have been distributed to this special operations group.

The special operations team of more than thirty people consumes even more pills than other soldiers, and both the funds and equipment have increased exponentially.

"After all, it's just a small team, can it really make a difference?" Qin Yi remained skeptical.

Chu Yang just smiled mysteriously and said to Qin Yi: "How about we make a bet? I can guarantee that this team will definitely shock you in actual combat."

"What to bet on?" Qin Yi was interested.

Chu Yang thought about it, it was boring to bet on money, and he couldn't think of anything else to bet on for a while, so he said casually: "Bet on a promise. Whoever loses must unconditionally agree to the other party's request and cannot refuse."

Hearing Chu Yang say this, Qin Yi hesitated a little, but finally nodded and agreed.

"Commander, long time no see, your subordinate Yang Ke greets you."

A voice came from behind, Chu Yang turned around and saw Yang Ke bowing to him, which made Chu Yang a little panic.

After all, Yang Ke was a former commander and a senior. Now he has come back to be a subordinate, and he even has to salute himself, a junior, which is really a bit unreasonable.

Chu Yang quickly reached out and helped Yang Ke up, and said politely: "Senior Yang, you are trying to discredit me. If everyone sees this, they will inevitably say that I don't know etiquette."

"Seniority doesn't work in our guard team. What we need here is obedience, and there must be no chaos in the hierarchy." Yang Ke said seriously.

"Haha, senior is a good follower of the rules."

Chu Yang nodded, Yang Ke was right.

"Commander Yang, you did a great job this time. I will ask for your credit in front of the city lord. You trained the guard team so well, which exceeded my expectations."

After greeting, Chu Yang joked with Yang Ke.
