"Alright then." Seeing Xu Ke's sincere demeanor, Hu Deyao found it difficult to say anything more.
"Additionally, Elder Hu, I have some questions for you," Xu Ke said.
"Please, go ahead," Hu Deyao eagerly responded.
"I'd like to know, what is the current situation at Tao Ranju?" Xu Ke asked.
Asking about such things was delving into private matters and was quite impolite. But since Xu Zhentai said he entrusted Hu Deyao to me, he must already know that I am the new master of Tao Ranju. My question shouldn't be too abrupt.
The reason Xu Ke wanted to ask was because of what his uncle had said. If his uncle still wished to conquer the world, he had to know the extent of Tao Ranju's assets to have a starting point, right?
Upon hearing this, however, Hu Deyao was stunned. He stammered, "Er, that, um..."
"What is it, Left Envoy Hu?" Han Wang and Ye Lang couldn't help but ask, their curiosity piqued. They also wanted to know how strong Tao Ranju was now.
