Cloud Mountain Sect.
Two figures stood beneath a large banyan tree, gazing at the endless mountains in the distance.
"The time is about right. We've given the Wei Family enough time to consider."
"Take some people to Xufu Town. If the Wei Family agrees, there's no problem."
"What if the Wei Family disagrees?" A young man grinned menacingly.
"If they disagree, just kill someone at random. Doesn't the Wei Family have three sons? You can kill one of them."
The shadow said indifferently.
"Really!"
"I want to kill one more!"
The young man knelt on one knee, his face filled with supplication and bashfulness, "Master Master!"
Master Master, what the heck!
Reduplications?!
Disgusting!
"Whatever you want."
The shadow traced the young man's face with his hand, "As long as you don't attract the attention of the authorities, and don't leave any evidence behind."
"Master Master, you're the greatest!" The young man licked his lips as he looked at him.
Shen Qinghan from the Ascension Gate exclaimed, "Wow, you stole my line!"
"Hmm."
"If you can accomplish this task."
"When you return, I will reward you well as your master, giving you an elixir to infuse into your body."
The young man's face was suddenly filled with greedy madness as he glanced at the man standing in front of him.
His face was flushed with shy red, and his breathing was chaotic.
He couldn't stand it anymore!
He could hardly hold back, wanting to cultivate with his master right now.
But this was his master's order!
He had to accomplish it!
Glancing again at his master's figure, which had already disappeared next to the shadow.
Leaving behind the shadow leisurely standing under the tree.
This young man was his proud disciple, usually helping him with such matters, and was much doted upon by him.
As for the Wei Family?
He didn't take them seriously at all.
Mortals are ultimately mortals, like ants in the face of their absolute cultivator pressure.
He could crush them with a single hand.
He was even certain that the Wei Family would give out gold and silver, starting at ten thousand taels a year, and rising to twelve thousand next year, slowly!
To completely devour the Wei Family.
Hahaha!
The Wei Family is currently helping his Cloud Mountain Sect earn gold and silver, allowing him to enjoy glory within the sect.
Even the old emperor is no match for me!
This feeling is too wonderful!
...
Under the moonlight.
Wei Mansion.
Xun Xian sat yawning beside the well, looking at her reflection in the water.
Tsk.
She really wasn't afraid of anything, looking into the well at night, not fearing something might jump out.
But then again, Xun Xian was a Foundation Establishment Stage patrol, such a fierce woman wasn't scared of these evil spirits?
"Ah, so boring, there's no way to gather information at this time."
Xun Xian complained helplessly and bored.
When bored, she liked to sharpen her knife.
Taking out a whetstone, she sharpened the blade with rhythmic strokes, the blade gleaming slightly with water, meticulously honing it.
Although the Foundation Establishment Stage couldn't use celestial weapons, combining with the spiritual qi within, cultivators at this stage were pretty formidable.
Ahhh.
So boring.
I really want to cut down some villains.
Or should I go find Yuchi for a fight? His little limbs and mortal frame make him tempting to bully.
That way, when he speaks to me, he'll be more respectful.
Come on, I'm a patrol officer!
"Hey, but I remember now."
"It seems someone from the Wei Family just came, was it someone from a small clan?"
Running her fingers along the blade, feeling the sensation of standing hair, Xun Xian was quite satisfied.
Talking to herself leisurely.
"Hey, can't these small clan people see it yet?"
"The guild simply can't be bothered to talk to you, the attitude is obvious."
"Who you do business with isn't the issue, just give all your clothes to the guild, they won't undercut you."
"Why bother coming over?"
"Hoping to join the guild?"
Xun Xian thought of that naive and charming young guy.
"That guy won't let the guild become too bloated."
"Six people, the efficiency won't be dragged down."
"Wonder what his next move is."
Saying this.
She noticed a shadow flying off into the distance from the rooftop.
Xun Xian furrowed her brows, spiritual qi instantly erupted!
With a boom!
When looking again, she was already beside the shadow.
A few tiles flew up into the air and disappeared, her blade pressed against the person's neck, her eyes glowing red under the moonlight.
The Wei Family's Guest Minister stared wide-eyed, eyes filled with despair.
This woman is crazy, huh?
What are you doing!
She must be mad!
"Who?" Xun Xian.
"Guest Minister!!!"
"Sorry, I saw you in a hurry, what are you going to do?" Xun Xian sheathed her knife.
"Erlang asked me to notify other families to head to the Qi Family immediately." The Guest Minister sighed wryly.
He'd heard that the Wei Mansion had a patrol from the yamen, didn't know who it was before, but now seeing, he knew.
Seeing now, indeed this patrol had some skills.
Very powerful.
"So how did Sanlang manage to subdue this beast?" The Guest Minister mused.
"What are you going to do at the Qi Family?" Xun Xian asked curiously.
"I don't know, I'm just fulfilling my duty to inform." The Guest Minister answered.
"Oh." Xun Xian, "Do you know approximately what's going on?"
"I don't know." The Guest Minister was grim.
"So what did Erlang say in detail?" Xun Xian asked again.
"..."
The Guest Minister was speechless.
What does this woman really want?
Why is this patrol so full of roguishness?
And why do you have so many questions!
The Guest Minister certainly wouldn't say, he was aligned with the Wei Family, he didn't want to give up on the Wei Family's life.
"Don't know." The Guest Minister shrugged.
"Don't know?" Xun Xian punched him in the stomach, "If you don't know, you don't know, why say don't know?!"
Feigning cuteness to sell deceit is shameful!
But she also let go of the grumbling Guest Minister.
Xun Xian then stood on the rooftop, from there she could see members of the Wei Family leaving the house.
So…
What are they doing?
What's happening at the Qi Family?
Causing trouble?
With the mindset of not missing any excitement, Xun Xian scanned the crowd.
Sure enough, she saw Yuchi in the crowd, conversing with Wei Zhe.
Watching from afar.
Hmm.
The young man was dressed in black, seemingly a robe, with a golden belt as wide as a palm at his waist.
Single garments and gray satin boots.
Not bad.
Face calm, words measured, with a good demeanor upon seeing.
Moreover, his appearance wasn't bad, although he couldn't match the devastatingly handsome Erlang Wei Fei, he was quite reliable.
At least outside, as long as he held Little Ximo, he was a friend of women.
A lady-killer.
"If he were one of our officials, I could cultivate him."
"But that said, none of the Wei Family have talent for cultivation."
"So no matter how Yuchi is, in terms of combat power, he's still not my match."
Xun Xian was quite satisfied.
