My beautiful CEO wife

Chapter 1788: Demon Alliance Secrets

The next day.

Xiao Zheng was still immersed in a sweet dream when he was woken up by a rapid knocking on the door.

He stumbled sleepily to open the door and found Chu Xiaoran standing outside his bedroom: "What time is it now, why are you up? Why not sleep a little longer?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiaoran said irritably, "Sleep, sleep, sleep, you’re such a lazybones, all you know is sleep! It’s already past nine, my cousin told me to wake you up and let you drive off the You Family father and son blocking the door early in the morning."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheng suddenly became wide awake: "The You Family father and son? You mean You Ruchang and You Haoran are right outside? They’re pretty gutsy, to actually dare come to my door looking for trouble."

After saying that, he couldn’t help but laugh.

However, Chu Xiaoran shook his head and said, "You’re mistaken, they’re not here for revenge this time, but to apologize. Anyway, they’ve brought all sorts of gifts, piled up at the door."

"If you don’t drive them away, I bet we won’t be able to go out today."

Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but laugh, and said, "Driving them away isn’t hard, is it? Just call the front desk of Wan Country Manor, isn’t it their claim to protect guests’ privacy and safety? Just have them send someone over."

"In any case, I’m too lazy to see the You Family father and son; they annoy me just by looking at them."

"Anyway, it doesn’t matter to me; my cousin already said, driving away the You Family father and son is your job." Chu Xiaoran said, "In any case, we have to set off by ten o’clock at the latest."

Before Xiao Zheng could say anything, Chu Xiaoran was already bouncing away.

After shaking his head and laughing, Xiao Zheng used the bedroom landline to call the front desk of Wan Country Manor. Because the big boss had personally given instructions, the staff at Wan Country Manor dared not slack on Xiao Zheng’s orders.

Just two minutes later, security came to chase them away.

Although the You Family father and son were somewhat unwilling, they ultimately left in embarrassment with all those gifts.

At ten o’clock, the three of them set off on time.

Before returning to Zhonghai City, they made a side trip to the An family, where Annie’s complexion had improved quite a bit, although her gaze was still a bit pensive. After chatting for over an hour, the trio finally got up to leave.

By the time it was past two in the afternoon, Xiao Zheng and the others returned to Zhonghai City.

As soon as the holiday ended, Leng Ruobing and Chu Xiaoran returned to work at the company.

After Xiao Zheng dropped them off at the company one by one, only he was left all alone in the end.

"Eh, living as a freehand boss isn’t that easy after all. Just got home, and I’m all by myself." Xiao Zheng sat at home alone, sighing non-stop.

Just as he was thinking about finding something for amusement, Long Qie’s call came in. On the phone, Long Qie didn’t explain what it was about, he just told him to return to headquarters.

Xiao Zheng, who was bored anyway, readily agreed.

Half an hour later, he appeared at Sky Net’s headquarters, inside Long Qie’s office.

"What’s going on exactly?"

"I just got back to Zhonghai, and you urgently called me over."

Xiao Zheng sat boldly on the sofa, crossed his legs, looking quite leisurely.

Long Qie brought two cups of coffee and sat down beside him, then spoke, "The information about the Demon Alliance that you asked me to investigate before has finally returned today."

Demon Alliance?

Upon hearing these four words, Xiao Zheng immediately became spirited, then hurriedly asked, "What did you find out?"

Hearing this, Long Qie sighed and said, "I can only say it’s shocking. I always thought the Demon Alliance’s strength was at most equivalent to half of the Eight Great Sanctuaries.

But I didn’t realize the Demon Alliance’s strength is almost on par with the Eight Great Sanctuaries."

After finishing speaking, he handed Xiao Zheng a piece of information.

The document shows that the Demon Alliance has existed since ancient times and is now active in the territories of Western China and North China. It is organized and led by nine top demon sects, and has recruited more than a hundred demon sects under its banner. If there weren’t a top master who could command respect within the Demon Alliance, the demons would have attacked the Eight Great Sanctuaries long ago.

Even so, the strength of the Demon Alliance is still not to be underestimated.

As for the Flame Demon Sect that appeared at Xiunv Peak that day, they are also part of the Demon Alliance, and one of the leading nine sects.

Thinking of the Flame Demon Sect’s young sect master who died by his hand, Xiao Zheng’s face couldn’t help showing some cold smiles.

Long Qie glanced at him and said, "Mr. Xiao, the strength of the Demon Alliance should not be underestimated. It may very well become our greatest obstacle in the future."

"The greatest obstacle? Do you think the potential of the Demon Alliance is more powerful than the Eight Great Sanctuaries?" Xiao Zheng put down the material in his hand and asked with interest.

Hearing this, Long Qie nodded and said, "That’s right, based solely on the intelligence we have obtained, it’s not hard to see how formidable the Demon Alliance is. Moreover, the Demon Alliance definitely has intelligence that we haven’t been able to uncover yet. So I believe the Demon Alliance will be trickier than the Eight Great Sanctuaries."

"If we really want to rectify the Huaxia Martial Arts World, both the Demon Alliance and the Eight Great Sanctuaries will be two towering mountains we cannot bypass."

"Since we can’t bypass them, let’s just level these two mountains." Xiao Zheng said casually, "No one can stop my progress!"

Long Qie sensed a fierce killing intent in his words, and couldn’t help but straighten his back quietly: "So what should we do next? Should we send someone to contact the people of the Demon Alliance, or continue to collect intelligence in the dark like we do now?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheng said without hesitation, "For now, do not make contact with the Demon Alliance people, as the folks from the Eight Great Sanctuaries are no doubt secretly watching our every move."

"If we startle the snake, then the alliance between the Eight Great Sanctuaries and the Demon Alliance will make our future difficult."

"An alliance between the Eight Great Sanctuaries and the Demon Alliance? Is that possible?" Long Qie laughed and said, "One side claims to be the orthodox Martial Arts, the other is the demonic faction, the two forces don’t even come near each other; an alliance seems unlikely, right?"

"Why impossible? Aren’t you aware of what kind of people comprise the Eight Great Sanctuaries?" Xiao Zheng glanced at him and said casually.

After hearing his words, Long Qie suddenly thought of the Great Sound Buddha Sect, then immediately felt a chill creeping up his spine.
