Chapter 35: Capturing Di Jiu

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Okay!” said the teenage girl. She stood up and said in a firm tone, “Di Jiu’s real name is Di Zimo. He is the eldest son of Di Wencheng from the Swallow Capital. His mother, Xi Xiumei, is the heir to the Di Clan’s manufacturing business. Di Jiu left the Swallow Capital five years ago to study in Luo Jin. When he was in third grade, he failed his examinations and his family did not help him complete his education. They left him in Luo Jin, where Di Jiu married Shen Ziyu. The two of them got divorced shortly after one year of marriage.”

“Di Jiu was adopted by Di Wencheng, which means that Di Ziheng is the real heir to the Di Clan’s manufacturing business. Di Jiu then left Luo Jin and disappeared for a year. It was not that long ago that he returned to Luo Jin and found a job at the Apricot Lake Hall. While he worked there, he was asked to represent Tan Yueyue at Su You’s birthday party. That’s when Bi Zhengsheng found him...”

The teenage girl paused and stood in a corner. She did not need to explain what had happened afterwards, as Bi Zhengsheng had already described it in full detail.

Jia Qian looked at Bi Zhengsheng, who was kneeling on the floor, and said lightly, “Did you already know this?”

“I did not. Please punish me, Master.” Bi Zhengsheng was sweating profusely. He had not even had the slightest idea about the facts the teenage girl had reported. He had not even known that Di Jiu’s real name was Di Zimo.

However, he knew clearly how scary his master could be. He’d once had a senior brother who had used his master’s name to negotiate with the Southeast Asian Mafia, also known as Giant Owl. The two sides had signed an agreement without informing his master. When his master had found out about the incident, his senior brother had gone missing and the business in Southeast Asia had been handed over to a junior brother.

“You did not know anything, yet you still took action. On top of that, you also exposed the Morgue Ring’s existence over a woman...” Jia Qian suddenly looked enraged. He grabbed the mug in front of him and smashed it.

The mug was smashed against Bi Zhengsheng’s forehead. Blood, mingled with hot tea, poured down his face. He did not dare to move. Ironically, Bi Zhengsheng actually felt relieved.

He was more afraid when his master hid his emotions. If his master had expressed his anger openly, then his life would most likely be spared.

“Lui Wan, tell us about Di Jiu’s whereabouts,” Jia Qian said when he was in control of his temper.

The teenage girl next to him took out a laptop. Her fingers moved swiftly across the keyboard before she said, “When the Bi He Building was barricaded, there were leads that Di Jiu was in Lin Chuan. I just checked the official ticket-selling website and Di Jiu is currently in the Swallow Capital.”

“Let me go to the Swallow Capital, Master. I will finish him off myself this time!” Bi Zhengsheng said earnestly.

He harbored a lot of hatred towards Di Jiu. If it had not been for him, he would have led a carefree life in Luo Jin as the underground mafia’s boxing champion. His proud, unrestrained days were gone the moment Di Jiu came into his life. He knew that if his martial arts dao did not reach a supreme level, it would be difficult to get another prominent site such as the Bi He Building.

He had only been able to escape with his life this time, because the Fairy Planet had just been opened to the public and there were many places in need of manpower. He had to capture Di Jiu, regardless of whether he did so out of hatred, or to prove his worth to his master.

Jia Qian snorted, “You don’t know what you are dealing with. If Di Jiu was able to kill He Shan that easily, then you are fighting a losing battle. You are no match for Di Jiu in terms of strength or brains.”

Although Bi Zhengsheng disagreed with that statement, he did not dare refute Jia Qian’s words.

“Since you were defeated by Di Jiu this time, you will have to go again. Lui Wan!” Jia Qian’s eyes landed on the teenage girl who had been standing next to him.

“I’m here.” Lui Wan bowed slightly.

Jia Qian nodded. “You will go to the Swallow Capital with Bi Zhengsheng this time. When Di Jiu has been captured, you will bring the lady named Su You along as well.”

“Ah...” Bi Zhengsheng blurted. He did not find it strange that his master had asked Lui Wan to accompany him, as Lui Wan was stronger and more talented than him. Bi Zhengsheng could not match her talent through sheer hard work. However, he was puzzled by his master’s decision to capture Su You. He had gotten mad at him for exposing the Morgue Ring for her sake after all.

“If I allow the Morgue Ring in Luo Jin to be barricaded so easily, I will lose my foothold in the boxing arena,” Jia Qian said indifferently.

...

The Swallow Capital was a large city with 22 districts.

According to Hu Qianli, the Ji Family’s manor was located in the Flat Road District. As soon as Di Jiu arrived in the Swallow Capital, he took a cab down to Taiyue Island in the Flat Road District.

Although it was called an island, it was actually just a community surrounded by lakes that only looked like an island.

The island had two entrances. One of them was in the north, while the other one was in the south. Both entrances were heavily guarded. Di Jiu was stopped by two guards a long distance away from the entrance.

“What are you doing?” The tall guard who stopped Di Jiu looked at him wearily.

“Ji Baishan has hired me for a medical consultation for Ji Xiaoting. Are you sure that you want to prevent me from entering?” Di Jiu said confidently. Back in the Ji Nation, no guards would have dared block his way.

When they heard Di Jiu’s words, the two guards were not impressed. They both looked at Di Jiu with sarcastic expressions. Di Jiu knew that there must have been others like him, who had come to offer their medical expertise. The Ji Family must have been disturbed by this and hence issued an order to not allow any people like that to disturb them again.

Di Jiu’s huge backpack and tender age did not make him look like a skilled medical practitioner. It was possible that he might not even get past the entrance this time.

“Mr. Ji has told us to not let anyone step into the premises. Do I need to call the police?” the tall guard said, mimicking Di Jiu’s words.

If this had been just about money, Di Jiu would have left. However, he had gone there for the auction tickets.

He did not know anyone in the Swallow Capital. All he knew was that, according to Hu Qianli, he would be able to get auction tickets there.

Despite the fact that he had travelled to the Fairy Planet in the past, Hu Qianli had only told Di Jiu where to obtain an auction ticket. He had not been able to offer any more help. Di Jiu knew that, without the Ji Family’s assistance, it would be impossible for him to obtain an auction ticket before the start of the auction.

Di Jiu observed his surroundings. The residents there were extremely wealthy, so security around the neighborhood was really strict. However, if he was determined to enter, there would surely be a way to do so.

Barging into the premises by force would not do. The only way to enter was to do so stealthily.

When he saw the sky darken, Di Jiu decided to sneak in during the night. It would not matter if the Ji Family believed him or not. All he would have to do was cure Ji Xiaoting’s illness.
