Chapter 447: Arrangements Targeting the Farmer’s Organization, New Six Sword Servants!
“What am I supposed to do over there with her?”
Li Mo blinked, looking somewhat bewildered and caught off guard.
He was momentarily at a loss for what Jing Ni meant.
Jing Ni leaned her head against his chest, listening to the strong rhythm of his heartbeat.
Gently, she poked his chest with her finger and said slowly, “Why do you think she showed off in front of Lian Yi today?”
Suddenly, Li Mo understood.
“She’s trying to say she’s grown up?”
“Mm-hmm.”
Jing Ni softly affirmed and continued, “She’s been here for a while now. Although she normally acts carefree, she’s not clueless at all.”
“Now you’ve brought Uya back with you, so she must be feeling a bit disappointed.”
“I’m not saying it was wrong for you to bring Uya back; it’s just that Hong Liang was here first. But after you’ve been here all this time without expressing anything to her, it’s natural for her to feel uncertain.”
“And she’s reached the age of maturity; it’s about time.”
In this era, girls generally married around thirteen or fourteen years old.
The age of maturity refers to fifteen years old.
In ancient times, fifteen marked a girl’s coming of age.
To reach that age meant the girl would tie her hair up and use a hairpin, indicating she was now an adult.
“Mm.”
Li Mo let out a drawn-out “mm,” but didn’t continue.
Seeing his nonchalant demeanor, Jing Ni grew anxious.
She sat up from his embrace, looking at him with concern. “Don’t just say ‘mm’; what’s your meaning behind that?”
She certainly didn’t think that Li Mo was genuinely indifferent towards Hong Liang.
Sharing a bed and pillow with him for so long, how could she not notice?
“Just wait a couple more years; she’s still young, still young.”
Li Mo pulled Jing Ni back into his embrace, his hand gently patting her smooth, fair shoulder.
“Young? How is she young?”
Jing Ni questioned, looking at him with confusion. “That girl is definitely not a child anymore! If it weren’t for my little changes after giving birth to Yan, she might have overtaken me! Lady Mingzhu even praised her for her great nutrition absorption; all the growth went to the right places.”
Li Mo chuckled, “I’m not talking about that; I mean her age, she’s still too young.”
Fifteen was indeed considered the age of maturity back then.
But the standard of adulthood in modern times was deeply ingrained in his mind.
So, they needed to wait a bit longer.
After all, that girl wasn’t going anywhere!
He just didn’t expect that while he wasn’t rushing, Jing Ni was getting anxious on behalf of him and Hong Liang.
Maybe she felt that having another person could help expand the Li family’s lineage,
especially since no one else was showing any signs of pregnancy yet.
Jing Ni was genuinely worried about this family!
What a model of a virtuous wife and loving mother!
Li Mo, seeing that she was about to lecture him, changed the subject and asked, “By the way, have you sent word to Tian Mi from the Farmer’s Organization?”
“I sent someone right after you left today. Don’t change the subject; we’re talking about Hong Liang.”
Jing Ni certainly knew what he was thinking.
Li Mo shifted slightly, and she immediately knew he wanted to change positions.
“I’m not changing the subject. I’m discussing serious matters with you! Today, I sent Zhao Gao to the Farmer’s Organization.”
Li Mo continued to divert the topic.
He didn’t believe they could avoid discussing it.
Sure enough, Jing Ni was successfully distracted and asked in confusion, “Zhao Gao? What did you send him to do?”
It was highly likely that dealing with the Farmer’s Organization would require strong measures. Zhao Gao had trained in martial arts but wouldn’t play a significant role in this situation.
“He came to me a few times, asking for something to do, so I let him have it.”
After hearing this, Jing Ni nodded and didn’t say much more.
Li Mo had a knack for reading people, so sending Zhao Gao meant there was a reason behind it.
After a moment of thought, Li Mo asked, “But his strength isn’t enough; I plan on assigning him a few helpers. Who do you think should be sent?”
The Farmer’s Organization had quite a few experts, and at the early stage, it wasn’t wise to send an army in openly.
Once Han Fei’s policy of “dismantling household registration” was implemented and they reduced the organization’s tens of thousands of disciples, there would only be a few thousand left.
Then it could be managed more easily.
Jing Ni searched her mind, saying, “Tian Ze and Shuang Gui are currently tied up with their own tasks. Wei Zhuang went back to Ghost Valley to find clues for you. Um… Black Jade Kirin could be sent; she’s skilled in disguise and illusions, so she can easily slip into the Farmer’s Organization.”
Li Mo nodded, “That’s a stealth move, including Tian Mi as well; we shouldn’t rush to expose them unless absolutely necessary.”
“What about the more direct moves? Which of those people are currently available?”
Having just returned from Loulan, Jing Ni had been managing the Luo Network and Liu Sha (a group).
She was most aware of who was busy and who had free time.
“The Farmer’s Organization has six hall masters, each with varying strengths, and there are even some in the seventh and eighth ranks. But those six elders of the Six Elders Hall possess strengths above their level and can’t be underestimated, especially with their inherited Twenty-Four Major Earth Arrays,”
Jing Ni analyzed the situation of the Farmer’s Organization systematically and concluded, “Let’s send the Six Sword Servants; their strength will suffice.”
The Luo Network initially had four major assassins: Yan Lingji, Jing Ni, and the Six Sword Servants.
Although the Six Sword Servants were six individuals, they operated as one.
The previous generation of the Six Sword Servants fell at Li Mo’s hands, but their blades continued to exist.
As long as the swords were here, new blood would soon replace them!
