"Boss, everything is done."
"Let's go!"
Su Yang waved his hand. Being able to eliminate traitors before rescuing Shi Wuzun was considered a worthwhile trip.
At the same time, it served as a warning to everyone about the dire consequences of being a lackey for the Shangguan family.
...
Half an hour later.
Su Yang and his group returned to the temporarily rented villa and were chatting over tea.
A vehicle stopped outside.
Seeing only one car, Yuan Kui breathed a sigh of relief, knowing it wasn't a war party sent by the Shangguan family.
Three women, who looked alike, got out of the car.
"Excuse me, does Su Yang live here?"
Yuan Kui asked, "Who are you?"
"Our teacher is Shi Wuzun, and we've come to find Mr. Su Yang to rescue him together!"
"I see, please come in!"
Yuan Kui stepped aside, and the three women entered the villa.
"Boss, they say they are General Shi's disciples."
Su Yang nodded, and Yuan Kui and the others retreated to the side to wait.
The three women simultaneously sized up Su Yang. "As our teacher said, you are indeed young and courageous!"
"What should we call you?"
"Nangong Weiyang, Nangong Yuyun, Nangong Yujiao!"
"Our teacher calls us 'Jixiang Sanbao' (Auspicious Three Treasures), so Mr. Su can call us whatever you like."
Jixiang Sanbao!
Su Yang was speechless. Shi Wuzun's nickname was too unpleasant.
These three sisters were clearly very attractive, yet they were called Jixiang Sanbao.
"Please, have a seat, fairy sisters!"
"Hehehe, are your lips smeared with honey?"
The three sisters didn't stand on ceremony and sat down to have tea.
Su Yang observed the three. The eldest was Nangong Weiyang, and the ones with 'Yu' in their names were the second and third, who were twins.
This was also his first time meeting Shi Wuzun's female disciples.
"Mr. Su, we sisters would like to hear your plan to rescue our teacher."
"To be honest, I don't have a ten-percent chance of success. The only hope is that Shangguan Zhongtang cares about his son's life."
"Shangguan Zhongtang is notoriously ruthless, but he wouldn't abandon his own son. With him, there is indeed hope of exchanging for our teacher."
Su Yang nodded and explained his situation.
"Not all of my people from Songhai have followed me. Too many people make it easy to be discovered. Those who came are elites, but it's still too thin to defeat the Shangguan family and their allies."
"Don't worry, Mr. Su. We sisters haven't been idle all these years; we've also trained some people."
"Yes, although there aren't many, they are all skilled, and there's no need to worry about their loyalty."
Hearing this, Su Yang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, some reinforcements arrived. Fortunately, the three sisters were normal people, unlike Zhu Chongwen yesterday.
Not only did he refuse to rescue Shi Wuzun, but he also advised Su Yang to return to Songhai, fearing implication.
Su Yang asked, "By the way, how many people do you have? Is it convenient to tell me?"
"Not many, only three thousand!"
"What? Three, three thousand?"
Su Yang was stunned. Three thousand people was a considerable force.
In ancient times, such a force would be possessed by a powerful figure.
At least a general.
"No, where did you get three thousand people? Was it approved by the higher-ups?"
Nangong Weiyang smiled slightly. "Our teacher specifically arranged it. He often said that he would eventually clash with the Shangguan family.
Then, he hoped we could protect ourselves, so he asked us to recruit privately."
"So it was Brother Shi's arrangement. He is indeed far-sighted."
Su Yang thought seriously. The people under the three sisters were enough to contend with the Shangguan family's forces.
Unless the Shangguan family mobilized their entire clan, or brought in allies.
"Weiyang, leave your contact information. I'll find you when my people arrive tomorrow."
"Okay, scan us three sisters!"
Nangong Weiyang and her two sisters opened WeChat simultaneously, and Su Yang added them.
"Then we won't disturb you. See you tomorrow!"
The Nangong sisters left by car, arriving and departing in haste.
Mo Gaowei asked softly, "Boss, have we found allies?"
"Of course! Brother Shi has many disciples; they can't all be ungrateful."
"Boss, I saw the elder sister staring at you just now. Does she have feelings for you?"
"Get lost, you kid. Your words are getting more and more presumptuous. You're fined dinner tonight. Go prepare the ingredients!"
Su Yang kicked Mo Gaowei away, and the latter sheepishly went to prepare the ingredients for dinner.
...
Night fell, and the stars twinkled.
In the front yard of the villa, everyone gathered around a bonfire for a barbecue.
The weather after the new year was still cold, and Sakata Cangyue hugged her skirt, warming herself by the fire.
"Su Yang, I heard some beauties came to see you today?"
"Yes, they are Brother Shi's disciples, discussing the rescue."
"Oh, give me your phone."
Su Yang handed her the phone and helped roast the whole lamb.
Sakata Cangyue initially intended to chat with her sister Sakata Yano, but then Jixiang Sanbao sent a message.
[Nangong Weiyang: Mr. Su, are you free to come to my place tonight for a drink and a chat?]
Sakata Cangyue pouted. She thought that someone she had just met would invite her to their home, thinking this woman must be trying to seduce Su Yang.
It was fine before, but now Sakata Cangyue was completely conquered by Su Yang, and her mindset had changed.
She glanced at Su Yang, who was busy roasting the whole lamb, and replied to Nangong Weiyang without his knowledge.
[What are we drinking and talking about at your place?]
Soon, Nangong Weiyang replied.
[Of course, it's about our teacher. If you want to talk about something else, it's not impossible!]
Nangong Weiyang didn't know that she was chatting with Su Yang's woman.
Sakata Cangyue decided to tease Nangong Weiyang before getting angry.
[Weiyang, are you Jixiang Sanbao married?]
[No, why? Could it be that Mr. Su has taken a liking to my sister?]
Sakata Cangyue smirked and continued to edit the teasing message.
[I'm a greedy person. Not only do I like your sister, but you yourself are also included.]
[Ah?]
Sakata Cangyue couldn't stop laughing, imagining Nangong Weiyang's shocked expression at that moment.
To say she liked all three sisters at once was not just greedy, but a delusional fantasy.
Sakata Cangyue hoped Su Yang would treat her, her sister, and Kawashima Nako well.
Therefore, she wanted to cut off Jixiang Sanbao's retreat.
[Weiyang, you don't need to be surprised. Actually, I was just kidding!]
[Mr. Su, if you confirm you like us three sisters, it's not impossible!]
This time, it was Sakata Cangyue's turn to be shocked.
What was going on?
Three sisters serving one man? Would anyone agree to that?
However, Sakata Cangyue thought of herself, her sister, and Kawashima Nako, and it was similar.
She was jealous and unwilling to share Su Yang's affection with more women.
[I was just kidding, Miss Weiyang, please don't take it seriously!]
[Nangong Weiyang: I'm serious. Our teacher strongly recommended that we sisters contact Mr. Su more. It's just that we were too busy before and hadn't met, so we never contacted you.]
[Nangong Weiyang: The songs you write are very good. That song "Si Linglong" is unforgettable and lingers in my mind. Mr. Su, you are young and talented, and Weiyang has always admired you.]
