The maid sent by Xu Yourong was mercilessly killed by Ye Qiu, and the scene was filled with a strong smell of blood.
“Go!”
Ye Qiu said.
Changmei Zhenren asked, “Little brat, do you want to change to a safer place to stay?”
“It seems your idea coincides with this poor Taoist’s.”
“The people from the Yin Yang Sect want to kill us. These maids didn’t succeed, I’m afraid Xu Yourong will come personally, so it’s better for us to leave here.”
Ye Qiu said, “Old thing, you misunderstood. What I mean is, let’s go kill Xu Yourong.”
Changmei Zhenren, “…”
Lin Dabird said, “I’ll go too. That old thing threatened to castrate me, I have to kill him. By the way, Brother Changsheng, can you promise me one thing?”
Ye Qiu asked, “What is it?”
Lin Dabird said, “Can you subdue Xu Yourong first, then hand her over to me?”
“What, you still can’t bear to part with her?” Ye Qiu advised, “There are plenty of fish in the sea. She’s already intent on killing you, why show her mercy?”
Lin Dabird smiled lewdly and said, “I’m not showing mercy, I want to… hehe!”
Damn.
Ye Qiu’s face instantly turned green, and in his heart he cursed loudly. This dead fatty is ruthless enough!
Lin Dabird said, “Since she’s heartless towards me, don’t blame me for being cruel. This young master isn’t one to mess with.”
“However, Xu Yourong is the saintess of the Yin Yang Sect, her cultivation isn’t low, and there’s that old man by her side, his strength is also very strong. I’m no match for them.”
“Brother Changsheng, can you beat them?”
“Don’t worry, the little brat has killed several saint sons, those from the Yin Yang Sect are nothing to fear…” Before Changmei Zhenren could finish, he suddenly saw Ye Qiu glare at him sternly, immediately realising his slip of the tongue, and quickly shut his mouth.
Lin Dabird became interested and asked curiously, “Brother Changsheng, you’ve killed saint sons? Who were they? Tell me their names, see if I know them?”
“They were all minor figures, you definitely haven’t heard of them.” Ye Qiu said, “We shouldn’t delay, let’s hurry and find the people from the Yin Yang Sect. While Xu Yourong doesn’t know these maids are dead yet, we can catch her off guard.”
At that moment, the three left the inn.
“By the way, we still don’t know where she lives?” Changmei Zhenren suddenly said.
Ye Qiu was stunned. That’s right, he had killed that maid earlier and forgotten to ask where Xu Yourong was staying.
“It’s a small matter, leave it to me.”
After Lin Dabird finished speaking, he went to inquire.
Xu Yourong was the saintess of the Yin Yang Sect, with a noble status, and she was beautiful to boot. Lin Dabird quickly found out.
“I’ve asked around, Xu Yourong and her group have entered the city lord’s mansion.” Lin Dabird said.
Ye Qiu frowned, “Things are complicated now, the city lord’s mansion definitely has experts, it’s not easy to handle!”
Lin Dabird said, “How about I find a way to sneak in and assassinate her?”
“No.” Changmei Zhenren said, “If you’re discovered, and the city lord’s mansion activates the protective array, none of us will escape.”
“Then what should we do?” Lin Dabird was also stumped.
Ye Qiu thought for a moment and said, “Let’s go to the city lord’s mansion first to observe, then make plans.”
Subsequently, the three headed to the city lord’s mansion.
Ye Qiu didn’t notice that not far behind them, a black shadow was always following.
A few minutes later.
The three arrived at the city lord’s mansion, found a hidden spot, and observed in secret.
Ye Qiu discovered that this city lord’s mansion was far more imposing than Jiang Feng’s in Mingyue City, covering a vast area, with an ancient and quaint style, full of solemnity. Under the moonlight, the city lord’s mansion resembled a huge immortal palace.
Ye Qiu glanced around and saw that there were over a hundred guards at the entrance of the city lord’s mansion, each at the peak of the Golden Core realm.
“Even the gatekeepers are at the peak of Golden Core, it seems there must be experts inside the city lord’s mansion.” Ye Qiu said gravely.
Changmei Zhenren advised, “Little brat, how about we don’t take the risk? If there’s a Nascent Soul realm expert, once they discover us, we’ll be done for!”
Ye Qiu was unwilling to leave just like that. After a brief thought, he said, “Old thing, Big Bird, you wait here for me.”
“I’ll go in first to scout the situation.”
“Then we’ll make plans.”
Lin Dabird advised, “Brother Changsheng, for safety’s sake, you shouldn’t take the risk.”
“The city lord’s mansion has strict guards, if you’re discovered, there’ll be huge trouble.”
“I don’t believe Xu Yourong won’t come out from the city lord’s mansion. We can find a place to watch, see when she leaves, and then make our move after she leaves.”
“It’s fine, I’ll go in and take a look.” After Ye Qiu finished speaking, he drew an invisibility talisman, and his body vanished into thin air.
Lin Dabird was shocked, “Where did Brother Changsheng go?”
“He’s already gone in.” Changmei Zhenren said, “The little brat isn’t reckless, let’s just wait here patiently!”
“Big Bird, let me ask you, do you really want to do that to Xu Yourong?”
Lin Dabird asked, “Why, does the Daoist think it’s improper?”
“No, no.” Changmei Zhenren lowered his voice and said lewdly, “When you do it to Xu Yourong, can you bring me along?”
Lin Dabird cursed loudly, “Get lost!”
…
Ye Qiu quietly sneaked into the city lord’s mansion. He was very careful, afraid of being detected by experts.
The city lord’s mansion was really too big, and with Ye Qiu worried about exposing his tracks, it took him quite a while to find Xu Yourong’s trace.
This was all thanks to Xu Yourong’s maids, several of whom were guarding a room door.
Ye Qiu thought, with the maids guarding outside, Xu Yourong must be inside the room.
He activated his heavenly eye for a look, and sure enough, Xu Yourong and Uncle Tian were in the room, the two were discussing something secretly.
Ye Qiu approached the room silently, then pressed his ear against the window and listened.
Xu Yourong asked, “Uncle Tian, has there been a reply from the sect?”
Uncle Tian nodded, “The sect sent a message saying they’ve invited a master to divine that the thing will appear tonight at midnight.”
“Great.” Xu Yourong was very excited and asked again, “Has the location been confirmed?”
“It’s confirmed, in Black Wind Forest.” Uncle Tian said, “Black Wind Forest is about fifty kilometres from here.”
“There’s still two hours until midnight.”
“Miss, when shall we set off?”
Xu Yourong didn’t hesitate and said, “Set off now, prepare in advance, don’t let that thing escape.”
Uncle Tian said, “But the few maids Miss sent to kill that fatty haven’t returned yet, shall we wait for them?”
“No need to wait for them, we have enough people.” Xu Yourong said firmly, “No matter what, we must succeed tonight.”
“As long as we accomplish this, the sect master will surely reward us greatly.”
“Go!”
After Xu Yourong finished speaking, she led Uncle Tian out of the room quickly.
