As he stepped foot into the city, a wave of loud and lively noises hit his face.

The wide and spacious streets were tidy, clean, and very busy. They were crowded with pedestrians and endless streams of horses and carriages. Every place was bustling with activity.

Haze City couldn’t even compare to it.

Lin Xun strolled the streets like a tourist, curiously looking at everything.

On the contrary, Lu Shaoyun looked glum as he followed him like a servant.

“Interesting.” Lin Xun chuckled.

“What did you say?”

Lin Xun ignored him and continued straight ahead.

Lu Shaoyun’s face alternated between looking pale and livid. He hated the fact that he couldn’t swallow Lin Xun alive. That guy is so annoying!

He had to forcibly suppress his anger and hatred and follow Lin Xun.

……

“Attention, the target has appeared, and a man dressed in a luxury robe is following him.”

“Send someone to keep an eye on the target and order some people to investigate the luxury-robed man’s background!”

“Remember, act carefully. The target is extremely dangerous. Don’t take action without orders!”

The moment that Lin Xun and Lu Shaoyun entered Yellow Dragon City, they were already being watched.

……

The Auspicious Inn.

Lin Xun asked for two adjacent rooms on the first floor, one for himself and the other for Lu Shaoyun.

“I’m going into closed-door cultivation for a few days. Stay here and don’t do anything. If you die from poisoning while running around then it’s not my fault.” Lin Xun turned around and headed into his room.

“I…” Just as Lu Shaoyun opened his mouth, the door slammed shut. The corners of his lips twitched. He hated the fact that he couldn’t kill Lin Xun. That bastard! How can he bully people like that!?

Just tell me outright if you want to kill me!

In the end, Lu Shaoyun looked dejected. He regretted his actions. If he knew that this would happen, he wouldn’t have provoked Lin Xun.

However, it was too late to regret it.

”No, I can’t just sit around and do nothing!”

He went into his room and thought long and hard. He decided that he had to do something to save himself. He wasn’t hopeful that a bastard like Lin Xun would be so merciful to let him go!

He gritted his teeth, brought out a brush and paper, and started writing.

As the son of Lu Tianzhao, an elder in the Stone Cauldron Alms headquarters in Forbidden City, Lu Shaoyun might be incompetent and bossy, but he wasn’t an idiot. He knew very well that he could only rely on his identity.

After he finished the letter and sealed it, he walked out of the room and secretly summoned an attendant. He passed on a message to the attendant and told him to keep his mouth shut with a gold coin.

The attendant happily rushed away.

After doing all that, Lu Shaoyun finally felt a lot more at ease. He returned to his room and waited quietly.

One hour later.

Several men in luxurious clothing closely followed an old man into the Auspicious Inn and entered Lu Shaoyun’s room.

……

Meanwhile, Lin Xun’s room was empty. There was no sign of Lin Xun, but a corner of the floor had been lifted.

But soon, the corner of the floor folded down again with a click. Someone who wasn’t looking closely would be unable to notice it.

……

Soon, the men in expensive clothes hurriedly left Auspicious Inn with the old man.

Lu Shaoyun was smiling triumphantly and sipping a drink in his room.

In a tea house opposite the Auspicious Inn, an ordinary-looking man in a bamboo hat asked casually, “Did you find out?”

“I found out that the man with the target is called Lu Shaoyun, and his father is Lu Tianzhao, an elder who works in the Stone Cauldron Alms in Forbidden City.”

Opposite the man in the bamboo hat sat a slender and dark youngster.

“Also, the Lu Family is regarded as a middle-class clan in Forbidden City, but their foundation can’t be compared to the ancient clans.”

“Stone Cauldron Alms? The Lu Family? How dare they interfere with the operation?”

The man in the bamboo hat frowned and then he continued, “Have you found out anything about the relationship between Lu Shaoyun and the target?”

“Not yet.” The slender youngster shook his head.

Just then, a chubby man rushed over and sat opposite the bamboo hat man. “Boss, I found out that Lu Shaoyun sent a message to seek help from Li Tianbao, the manager of Stone Cauldron Alms in Yellow Dragon City.”

The man in the bamboo hat narrowed his eyes and an imperceptible glint flashed across his eyes. “Haha, I didn’t expect Lu Shaoyun to be so courageous to use his father’s power to find someone to help the target? He has a death wish!”

If Lu Shaoyun heard their conversation, he would cough up blood from anger. He had asked for help to save himself! Why would he help Lin Xun?

Unfortunately, Lu Shaoyun wasn’t there.

Misunderstandings often arose in such a way.

“Boss, those guys are coming out now.”

The thin young man reported, and the bamboo hat man and the chubby man simultaneously turned their heads to look at the entrance of Auspicious Inn.

A group of men dressed in high quality clothing escorted an old man onto a carriage and left.

“Boss, that old man is Li Tianbao, the shopkeeper of Stone Cauldron Alms of Yellow Dragon City!” The chubby man’s eyes lit up.

The bamboo hat man was certain that Lu Shaoyun intended to intervene in their operation to help their target.

He had just watched Li Tianbao lead a group of people into Auspicious Inn. Who would believe it was a coincidence?!

“Hey, I didn’t expect it. I really didn’t think the young master of the Lu Family would be so loyal to a friend. He didn’t hesitate to go against us to help our target. Amazing. It’s amazing.” The slender youngster smiled coldly. He clearly spoke sarcastically.

”Hmph, loyal? Only an idiot would go against us! Even Stone Cauldron Alms can’t save his Lu Family now!”

The bamboo hat man took a deep breath and issued an order, “Tell everyone to closely monitor the Auspicious Inn. Pay close attention to any movements from Stone Cauldron Alms in Yellow Dragon City. I need more detailed information.”

After a pause, the bamboo hat man continued, “Also, send someone to sneak into the Auspicious Inn and pretend to work there to investigate further. I want to know what the target is planning! Does he plan to use Lu Shaoyun’s power to fight against us? If so, don’t even think about it!”

“Yes!” The two took the order and hurried away.

Before long, the bamboo hat man also left. He had sealed all the information they had gathered with a secret method and passed it out using a wind shadow hawk.

……

In an ancient mansion in the Forbidden City.

Bang!

Chi Cangmei couldn’t control her anger and smashed the desk in front of her. Fragments flew everywhere.

Her eyes were as sharp and chilling as knives, and a terrifying aura was surging around her body. She uttered coldly, “The operation in Qingliu Town has failed! Can you guys not do anything without Xu Qianjing?”

The assistants nearby were all as silent as cicadas in late autumn.

The wind shadow hawk had sent back news about the operation in Qingliu Town and presented the battles through a light screen.

Chi Cangmei couldn’t suppress her anger anymore after she learned that they had failed to kill the target after dispatching so many forces and setting up an inescapable net.

Chi Cangmei was most annoyed about the fact that the crossbows that the target used in the battles in Qingliu Town all belonged to the Chi Family!

Seeing her family’s weapons being used like that felt like a slap to her face!

“Lady Mei, you weren’t present in the previous operations, so you might not know about the situation. In truth...the failure of the operation, like the rest, wasn’t due to a tactical problem, but that the target is too strong,” someone stammered while everyone else nodded in agreement.

They had worked with Xu Qianjing to set up a plan of operation, but their target had broken their plan again and again.

However, it was different for Chi Cangmei. It was the first time that she had participated in the operation so it was understandable that she didn’t understand the situation.

Although that was the truth, in Chi Cangmei’s view, those words seemed particularly grating to her ears. Her expression turned chilling and she smiled in anger. “So, you think it’s normal that the operation failed?”

Everyone trembled in their hearts and shook their heads in unison. Chi Cangmei could burst with rage at any moment.

At that moment, a guard rushed into the room and quickly reported, “We received a message from the front line that the target has shown up in Yellow Dragon City. It’s just that the situation seems a little strange because Lu Shaoyun is now with the target.”

The other assistants all threw a tantrum.

“Lu Shaoyun has guts! Does he not want to live anymore?!”

“I know Lu Shaoyun. His father is a powerful figure in Stone Cauldron Alms, but he is obnoxious and unbearable! I wonder if there’s something wrong with his head since he dares to go against us!”

“It doesn’t matter if he is related to Stone Cauldron Alms or the Lu Family. If he dared to help our target, he is our enemy!”

The assistants were all children of wealthy families in Forbidden City. They had a more noble status and identity than Lu Shaoyun and wouldn’t attach any importance to him.

Although they couldn’t do anything to Lin Xun, for now, they saw no problem in dealing with Lu Shaoyun!

If Lu Shaoyun knew about this, how would he react? Cry or fly into a rage?

“Send a message to the Lu Clan and ask them whether it was Lu Shaoyun’s idea or did they order him to do so. I have limited patience. Tell them to give me a clear answer as soon as possible!” Chi Cangmei appeared to be extremely calm and quickly came up with a plan.
