Hasaar pondered for a moment before speaking, "There's no other news. Since we know their objective, we don't need to rush. We can just play the waiting game."
"Hmph, wouldn't that be letting them off too easily?"
The Pope's gaze turned icy. "You all saw the situation during the day. Ye Cangtian's attitude was too arrogant, completely disregarding me. Therefore, before he dies, I want to put him in his place!"
As he spoke, the Pope scanned the many cardinals and continued, "Who among you dares to provoke Ye Cangtian? You don't need to kill him, just make him lose face!"
The Pope understood that these individuals were only at the Earthly realm and would surely gain nothing from a direct confrontation with Ye Cangtian.
Thus, he relaxed his demands to avoid depleting his subordinates.
"Your subordinate is willing to serve!"
As the Pope's voice fell, a group of cardinals immediately voiced their agreement.
It was just a matter of causing trouble, what was so difficult about that?
Moreover, it was only about making Ye Cangtian lose face, not engaging in a fight to the death, so there shouldn't be any mortal danger.
Therefore, in their eyes, this was a benefit bestowed by the Pope for nothing, and they naturally wouldn't miss it.
...
The sun rose, marking another day.
Ye Cangtian stretched lazily as he walked out of his room. Seeing Lan Yue and Gui Wu eating breakfast, he walked over.
"Boss, this place is crawling with informants. We're being watched too closely, how can we make a move?"
Gui Wu put down the bread in her hand and said to Ye Cangtian with a troubled expression.
She and Lan Yue had not been idle all night, having thoroughly inspected the place.
They discovered that not only inside the hotel, but also outside, the Church of Light had stationed numerous people.
Some were disguised as service staff, some were selling magazines downstairs, and some had even transformed into vagrants.
It could be said that anything they did after leaving their hotel room would be observed by the Church of Light.
Gui Wu naturally knew the mission objectives for this trip and had no hope for negotiations.
The only way to achieve their goal was likely through stealthy infiltration.
But with so many informants, they would likely be discovered by the Pope before they even reached the Church of Light, so how could they infiltrate?
"Those informants are not a big problem,"
Ye Cangtian glanced at Gui Wu and said indifferently.
While these informants were indeed troublesome, if there were no quasi-Heavenly realm experts among them, tracking them would be quite difficult.
"Boss, don't always view things so optimistically.
"It might not be difficult for us to shake them off, but each time we do, they will become more vigilant.
"Besides, these people are not stupid. If we disappear from their sight, they will surely connect it to the Specimen Hall..."
Gui Wu glared at Ye Cangtian with annoyance. Her meaning was clear: before taking action, they needed to at least scout the situation at the Specimen Hall.
Only after understanding the reality of the situation could they act.
But with these informants present, how could they scout the Specimen Hall?
"Heh heh, isn't this simple?"
Hearing Gui Wu's worries, Ye Cangtian smiled slightly and then pointed to the little cat beside Lan Yue, saying, "We'll leave the intelligence gathering to Xiao Hei!"
Gui Wu glanced at the little black cat, her eyes widening.
She had often petted this little black cat when it was idle; it was quite amusing, but to let it gather intelligence? That would be a joke!
"Boss, you're not kidding me, are you?" Gui Wu asked incredulously.
"Of course, I'm not kidding. Otherwise, why would I bring it here!"
Ye Cangtian smiled at Gui Wu and then glanced at Xiao Hei, saying, "Xiao Hei, she's looking down on you. I think you need to show her something."
As he spoke, Xiao Hei, who had been lying lazily beside Lan Yue, finally opened its eyes.
Its originally cute and innocent eyes instantly turned sharp and cold, filled with bloodlust and killing intent, but in the next moment, they returned to their original appearance.
Hiss!
In an instant, Gui Wu couldn't help but shiver.
Not only were the cat's eyes chilling, but more importantly, she felt an incredibly powerful aura emanating from the cat.
"Lan Yue, where did you get this cat? Is it a legendary demonic beast?"
Gui Wu glanced at Lan Yue and asked, her heart filled with lingering fear.
After all, she had petted the cat quite a lot. If she had truly angered it, the consequences were unimaginable.
"It's not mine, it's his."
Saying that, Lan Yue picked up Xiao Hei and continued, "It's not just a little cat, it's a Nether Hunting Tiger, but it is indeed a demonic beast, and it can communicate with Ye Cangtian without any barriers..."
Hearing this, Gui Wu glanced at Ye Cangtian, the shock on her face gradually fading.
She gave Ye Cangtian a thumbs-up and said, "When anything shocking happens to you, it's considered normal. You're too monstrous!"
As she spoke, her eyes darted around, contemplating Ye Cangtian's suggestion.
Letting Xiao Hei scout the situation was a good idea, after all, no one would pay attention to the little cat by Ye Cangtian's side.
Thinking of this, she said, "Boss, it's fine to leave the Specimen Hall situation to Xiao Hei, but what about us? We can't just stay in the room all day, right? We'd go crazy!"
"What are you thinking?"
Ye Cangtian gave her an annoyed look. "We can't be idle either. We naturally need to disrupt their sight and attract their attention."
"Then what specifically should we do?" Gui Wu asked instinctively.
Ye Cangtian grinned wickedly. "It's very simple. We just need to eat, drink, and have fun. Call Nancy and ask if there are any good entertainment venues in Bright City, preferably casinos. While enjoying ourselves, we can also earn some money."
Heh heh.
Upon hearing this, Gui Wu let out a wry smile. This wasn't about attracting attention; it was clearly about deliberately causing trouble for them.
Ring!
Just as Gui Wu was contacting Nancy, a cold voice cut through the air.
Ye Cangtian picked up his phone and saw a text message from Hasaar.
The message contained only one sentence: The Pope instigated the cardinals to stir up trouble, with the aim of humiliating the Huaxia delegation.
Just humiliating them?
Looking at the message, Ye Cangtian sneered. The Pope's true intention was likely to provoke him into taking action, forcing him to kill.
This way, the Pope would have ample reason to openly attack him.
While Ye Cangtian was musing, Gui Wu had already finished contacting Nancy and returned to Ye Cangtian's side.
"Boss, Nancy said that if we want something thrilling and exciting, we should go to Tianyun Fort..."
Gui Wu began to explain briefly.
Tianyun Fort was an absolute dominant presence among the entertainment venues in Bright City.
It was absolutely fair and just, and it offered every kind of entertainment imaginable.
However, there was one rule: anyone entering had to take a Joy Pill.
Although called a Joy Pill, it was similar in effect to a Spirit Sealing Pill, both being pills that sealed spiritual energy. However, the Joy Pill only sealed spiritual energy for six hours.
After six hours, the effect would disappear.
"Heh heh, sounds good. Then let's go to Tianyun Fort," Ye Cangtian said decisively after hearing Gui Wu's description.
"Boss, think carefully! Without spiritual energy, we're only slightly stronger than ordinary people. Going there is very dangerous."
Seeing this, Gui Wu quickly warned him.
Although all safety issues within Tianyun Fort were the responsibility of Tianyun Fort itself, Tianyun Fort was ultimately an industry of the Church of Light.
If the Church of Light wanted to manipulate things there, they would be in big trouble.
"Heh heh, you've been with me for so long. When have you ever seen me do something I wasn't sure about?"
Ye Cangtian gave Gui Wu an annoyed look before turning and leaving the room.
Gui Wu was stunned for a moment, then helplessly followed with Lan Yue.
...
