Mercenary Guild Headquarters, Yun Sheng Pavilion.

In the entire Inner Palace, only Yun Qian and Su Xiruo were left. Su Xiruo sat in his original spot for a long time, not knowing what to say.

"Xiruo." Finally, it was Yun Qian who opened his mouth first, "Are you angry? Do you think I'm hiding my identity from you?"

"You really hid it well." Su Xiruo shook his head, he did not know whether to laugh or cry.

She had been guessing this entire time, and was curious in her heart as to who the mysterious Mercenary Guild Master was. Who knew, he was actually the person she had spent all this time with?

"I'm sorry, Xiruo. Because this matter involves so many people, before, I didn't know how to bring it up with you. I might as well not tell you." Yun Qian still had some concerns in his heart.

Speaking of which, his own identity was really too complicated. If Xixi knew all of the truth, who knew if she would be drawn into these unprovoked disputes.

"Forget it. Seeing that your attitude is sincere, I'll forgive you this time." Su Xiruo let out a helpless sigh. He understood in his heart that this was not a malicious act of concealment, so he wasn't too angry.

After all, he had been too slow to guess anything.

"This time, my Poison Sect has suffered greatly, and in a short period of time, I won't be able to create any big waves." Yun Qian gave a noncommittal smile, "When the time is ripe, we will seize all of our Poison Sect in one go."

After all, Poison Sect could be considered a great power within the Midland region. Other than Jiang Lingye, there were also two other elders who were guarding the place with great strength.

"Yes." Su Xiruo slightly nodded his head, thinking, I have to quickly raise my strength, only then will I be able to personally kill Poison Sovereign!

Then, she opened her mouth and said: "This is the Healing Drug that I just fried, drink it while it's still hot."

However, Yun Qian wanted to keep him in suspense. With a slightly arrogant tone, he said, "My wife, feed it to me personally, and I will drink it."

"But, you have hands and feet, so I don't need to feed them, right?" Su Xiruo slightly frowned, slightly dissatisfied.

"If my wife is unwilling to feed me, then I won't drink it." Yun Qian's face revealed a proud and lovely expression. Compared to his cold and vicious appearance in the large hall earlier, he was like a completely different person.

"It's not good for you to do this."

"No, I want my wife."

Just then, Xuan Qing had just walked out of the door, and unintentionally heard the conversation from behind. His expression immediately changed, and it became slightly awkward, as he was originally here to report to the President about the recent developments in Mercenary Guild, but at this moment, he actually did not know whether or not he should enter.

Normally, the president didn't smile, but his face would often turn cold and his words were gentle like gold. This was the first time he heard the president speak in such a manner. Not only was it not cold, it even carried a hint of arrogance.

Xuan Qing even suspected that the one in the hall, was the president himself.

Xuan Qing turned around, planning to return later. Unexpectedly, a mercenary beside him who had a dirty mouth suddenly spoke: "Chief Protector, why aren't you going in?"

These words were immediately heard by Yun Qian, and Xuan Qing shot a vicious look at the smug mercenary. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask: "President, can this subordinate come in?"

"Come in." Yun Qian's tone was cold again.

Xuan Qing then pushed open the door and entered, seeing Su Xiruo putting down the medicine bowl, he seemed to be thinking, about the conversation she had with Yun Qian, could it be that Xuan Qing had heard all of it?

This fellow, in front of his subordinates, had started to get serious.

"Guild leader." Realizing that something was amiss, Xuan Qing immediately admitted his mistake tactfully, "This subordinate did not intend to eavesdrop on your conversation with Miss Su."

"Chief Protector, you should report the situation directly." Yun Qian interrupted him and asked indifferently.

"Yes." Once he found a step, Xuan Qing immediately changed the topic and began to report the general situation of the Mercenary Guild over the past year. Yun Qian had a carefree look on his face, but he had actually listened to every word that was said seriously.

After reporting everything, Xuan Qing added, "President, the work that Xuan Xing, the Second Elder and I do is normal. It's just that other than the Great Clan Elder's side, everything else may be normal."

"Recently, this Mercenary Guild doesn't seem to be peaceful." When Yun Qian entered the headquarters today, he discovered that something was amiss.

His previous Mercenary Guild had been peaceful in all four directions, but this time, the feeling was completely different. He could faintly feel that there were differences within the Mercenary Guild, and all of this could have been caused by the Great Elder!

"That's right." "When you were not around, Great Clan Elder Chu Lin had secretly started to build up your own Mercenary Group. Before you left, you had clearly said that the life and death authority in Mercenary Guild headquarters would all be given to your subordinates, but the Mercenary Group under Great Clan Elder's command, it's fine if you don't listen, but the Great Clan Elder had even encouraged the Mercenary Group to be tyrannical, and had even secretly cooperated with the Poison Sect!"

After hearing this, Yun Qian's eyes darkened a little, and Xuan Qing continued to add: "Not only that, most of the Mercenary Group under Chu Lin's command are new mercenaries, Chu Lin discredit you in front of those new mercenaries all day, saying that you do not have any real power, thus, after a long period of time, those mercenaries listened to Chu Lin's words, and although Xuan Xing and I have tried to clean up many times, we were always stopped by Chu Lin, and he even said that without his order, no one is allowed to touch his people, including you!"

"Looks like this Chu Lin is extremely ambitious. He wants to get the position of the guild leader." Su Xiruo also more or less understood what Xuan Qing was saying, and he was a little displeased in his heart.

He was simply too arrogant. He didn't even put this guild leader in his eyes!

"Call him over." Yun Qian did not say much. He only planned to call Chu Lin over and personally interrogate him.

"Yes." Xuan Qing immediately turned around and called for her.

"Yun Qian, from what I see, that Chu Lin should have gathered many forces in his hands. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so arrogant." Su Xiruo frowned slightly, probably thinking that this matter was still a little troublesome, "How do you plan to settle this?"

Yun Qian replied without a change in expression, "I will naturally do as I please."

There was nothing special about it, and just because he had some power, he would not be afraid of it. Yun Qian's personality had always been like this.

After waiting for a long time, Chu Lin finally brought Chu Lin here. Dressed in a black robe, some unwillingness hung on his face, he had probably already guessed what the president wanted to tell him.

Presumably, Xuan Qing spent a great deal of effort to call Chu Lin over.

"Guild leader." Chu Lin lowered his body and bowed towards Yun Qian, his tone relatively respectful, "I wonder what business you have in calling this old man here?"

"I have not returned for a long time, naturally it is to let you report the current situation of the Mercenary Guild." Yun Qian's tone was indifferent, without any emotion in it.

"Yes." Just as Chu Lin was about to speak, his gaze landed on Su Xiruo, "But, President, this old man will report the situation to you, do we need to avoid this outsider?"

Su Xiruo knew that she was the outsider that Chu Lin was talking about, and was slightly unhappy. He was about to retort, but Xuan Qing opened her mouth first: "Great Clan Elder, this is our President's wife, she can't be considered an outsider, right?"

"Heh, so it's the Madam President." The Great Elder laughed contemptuously. He could only say, "Alright, then blame this old man for being stupid."

As a result, Chu Lin began to report on the recent developments of the Mercenary Guild, but not every word he said was important and not important. He kept on saying that the Mercenary Guild was peaceful, and he kept his mouth shut about all that he had done.

"You're done?" Seeing Chu Lin not saying anything, Yun Qian subconsciously asked.

"That's about it." Chu Lin did not deny it, "The Mercenary Guild is now very peaceful, President does not need to worry about it anymore."

"But, why has this sovereign heard of it? The internal Mercenary Guild have not been very peaceful recently." Yun Qian then brought up the matter of his own accord, "Did the Great Elder turn a blind eye to this internal conflict?"
