"Xiao family?" Ling Jian's eyes lit up. "Could it be that the Xiao family has made a move? But does the Xiao family have the ability to fight against Tamago? "
"They have not only made a move." Ling Tian pursed his lips and clicked his tongue. "You don't know this, but the Xiao family's strength has also far exceeded our expectations. The Xiao family even nearly killed Justice. Their strength is not any weaker than Tamago's last night. This is truly unexpected. "
"Ah? There's actually such a thing? Don't tell me that the Xiao family's overall strength is above Tamago's? " Even with Ling Jian's calm demeanor, he could not help but exclaim. "But, how can the Xiao family possess such strength?"
"Even stronger than Tamago? That might not be the case. Tamago is a family that is united from top to bottom. No matter how strong the Xiao family's Above Heavens is, they are still external reinforcements. Just based on this point alone, they cannot be compared to Tamago. However, I really did not expect that the Xiao family's backer, or rather their collaborator, would actually be one of the three great sects, the number one sect in the Heavenly Sun Continent, Above Heavens! That ancient sect that has disappeared from the world for a long time. However, this makes sense. Without the strength of Above Heavens, what right do they have to threaten Justice?! "
Ling Tian's voice was heavy as he sighed. "We need to speed up our next step. From the looks of it, with the various families revealing their trump cards, the situation is about to become clear. I believe that it won't be long before the war begins. I am truly worried about how their preparations are going. "
"Young master, you can be at ease. Our brothers will definitely not let young master down." Ling Jian said resolutely. "If any one of them is unable to prepare properly and delays young master's plans, then I, Ling Jian, will be the first to not let him off!"
"That's true. If they're not prepared, do you think you can get away with it? You are their number one instructor. "Ling Tian laughed." If we want to investigate who is responsible, we should start with you. "
Ling Jian's expression turned bitter and his little face shriveled. It couldn't be, right? Expressing his loyalty had actually brought trouble to himself.
"Hey! Ling Tian, no wonder you decided to come to Bright Jade City. It turns out that you already knew the whereabouts of those from Above Heavens. " Li Xue shouted angrily. She didn't even call him 'Brother Tian' anymore. Instead, she called him by his name. "When did you find out? Why didn't I know about it? You've come up with at least a dozen excuses along the way, but you've actually hidden the most important one! What are your intentions? What is the meaning of this! Are you treating me as an outsider?! "
As she spoke, a sense of grievance rose from the bottom of her heart. The more she spoke, the sadder she felt. The more she thought about it, the more bitter she felt. Before she could finish her words, her eyes had already turned red, and her little mouth was pursed. It looked as though she was about to burst into tears …
"My dear grandaunt!" Ling Tian bowed deeply and begged for mercy. "Please don't scatter your golden beans anymore. I've already been drowned a few times, and this is the only set of clean clothes I have on me. Besides, you've been sleeping like a little pig every night for the past few days. How could I have the nerve to disturb you? I only called you once, and I even suffered a good beating. I also had no choice but to go myself. Now, you're saying that I'm hiding everything from you. You, you, you … can you still be reasonable? "
Ling Tian almost jumped up in anger as he cried out in grievance. Little grandaunt, we're still in the middle of hiding. If you don't care about the consequences and start crying, won't you torture people to death?
"You're the little pig." Li Xue rolled her eyes at him, and her face turned red. She seemed to know that she was in the wrong, and her expression became much better. However, she still pouted and said, "Then you should have told me in the morning." Her voice was much softer.
Looks like Young Miss Li is different from ordinary women. She's actually reasonable!
"Young Miss Li, it's already good enough that I brought a burden like you along, right? There doesn't seem to be a need to ask for your permission for everything, right? " Ling Tian snorted and rolled his eyes. "Don't be greedy. I'll bring you along whenever there's something fun. What's the difference if you know earlier or later?"
"That's true." Li Xue said thoughtfully. Then, she widened her eyes and raised her voice again. "Who are you calling a burden?"
"Him, I'm talking about him …" Ling Tian pointed at Ling Jian, and his face was almost sweating. "This fellow is really a burden, alright? Big sister, can you please lower your voice? Our place can't afford to be tossed around. This isn't our territory, so it's better to be careful! "
"Hmph." Li Xue arrogantly beat the gong to withdraw her troops. She said, "Let's see if you still dare to offend me." She then swaggered out of the door.
Ling Jian, the number one assassin in the world, was actually called a burden. While it was an undeserved calamity and was used to deceive others, he still felt extremely resentful and muttered, "I'm not a burden, how am I a burden …"
"Shut up!" Ling Tian said fiercely, "Are you all going to rebel?" The moment Li Xue left, Ling Tian no longer had the threat of tears, and immediately began to act like a tyrant.
Ling Jian shrunk his neck. "Young Noble, where are we now? Will Nineteen and the others be able to find us? "
Ling Tian chuckled and said, "Yu ManLou gave birth to three good sons, Yun, Shui, and Feng. The three of them are all great youths. Among them, Yu LiuYun has already died under your sword, but the remaining two are the overlords of the red-light district. Furthermore, the two of them are both affectionate, hehe … "
"So what?" Ling Jian was confused.
"So what? So what? "Ling Tian said with a sinister smile." It's just that two years ago, Second Young Noble Yu fell in love at first sight with Miss Chun Xiang from the Drifting Fragrance House in Bright Jade City. He couldn't forget her, and only after spending a large sum of money did he manage to win her over. Furthermore, he arranged a separate courtyard for her to hide in. Hehe … "
Seeing Ling Tian laughing weirdly, Ling Jian couldn't help but ask, "Don't tell me this Miss Chun Xiang …"
"Oh, this Miss Chun Xiang doesn't have any special background." Ling Tian said casually, "It's just that one of her identities is a spy for the Crystal Pavilion. As for the Drifting Fragrance House, it is naturally a property of the Crystal Pavilion. "
Ling Jian couldn't help but stare with his eyes wide open, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. After a long while, he finally burst out into laughter. "So we are at the place where Second Young Noble Yu is hiding his mistress?"
"Smart!" Ling Tian nodded his head, praising him loudly. "You are indeed worthy of being the Pavilion Head of the First Pavilion. You are truly intelligent. I don't think there is any place safer than here, right? "
Ling Jian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Young Noble has already pointed out the Crystal Pavilion. If I still can't guess it, wouldn't I be stupider than a pig?"
Ling Tian chuckled and instructed, "You just focus on recuperating and get better as soon as possible. I will make a trip out first. With Tamago searching the entire city, they should at least catch one or two big fishes. Otherwise, wouldn't it be too much of a waste of manpower and resources? "
Ling Jian smiled knowingly and said, "If the fish is too big, it will drag the fisherman into the sea."
"Hahaha, smart!" Ling Tian laughed and left the room.
At this time, it was already close to noon.
When Ling Tian walked out, his originally healthy face was covered with a layer of dust. He was wearing a light blue silk robe and held two iron balls in his hands. En, there was even a small mustache on his lips. His eyes were cunning and filled with greed, looking just like an unscrupulous merchant …
It had to be said that Young Noble Ling's ability to imitate was too good. Whatever he pretended to be, he looked exactly like it. This was also a skill brought over from his previous life. A true top-notch assassin not only had to be ruthless and vicious, but also had to use perfect concealment techniques. This perfect disguise technique was also indispensable. But in this aspect, Ling Jian was obviously not good enough. Thus, Ling Jian had never acknowledged himself as the world's number one assassin! Because in Ling Jian's heart, only Young Noble had the qualifications! Only Young Noble was worthy of the title 'world's number one assassin!
This face really did exist in Bright Jade City. The real owner of this face was a merchant named Zhao Dafu. This person specialized in the medicine business and had been in contact with Tamago for more than twenty years. In Bright Jade City, he could be considered a celebrity.
"Zhao Dafu, male, thirty-five years old, seven feet tall, skinny, well-known merchant in Bright Jade City. Personality: Greedy, stingy, petty, known as a miser …" This was the information Ling Tian had on Zhao Dafu. Right now, this Zhao Dafu was obviously hiding in a safe place and sleeping. As for whether he was willing to do so, that was unknown. And the person who came out to move around, although it was Zhao Dafu's face, it was actually not him.
As for this identity, it was specially arranged for him by one of Ling Tian's secret subordinates in Bright Jade City.
Walking on the streets, Ling Tian appeared as though he had lost his soul. Around him, there would occasionally be people who would recognize him and greet him, but Ling Tian would not even bother to respond to them. Although Ling Tian's imitation skills were strong, it did not mean that he had really experienced Zhao Dafu's life. He still did not recognize most of the faces. Therefore, he could only put on a face that rejected people thousands of miles away. Of course, this person's personality was to step on the weak and bow to the strong. Therefore, his current behavior was not much different from his usual behavior. This was also the main reason why Ling Tian had chosen this person to disguise his identity!
Only, from time to time, there would be some white robed Tamago White Jade experts who would come up to talk to this Big Boss Zhao. Ling Tian naturally did not dare to be negligent and could only greet them before daring to slip away. He was naturally surprised. Could it be that a stingy merchant could actually do this? It seemed like this Zhao Dafu was not an ordinary merchant. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters.
