The young man who was missing his left arm was called Fang Hu. He was the younger brother of Fang Yun, the Deputy Hall Master of the River Sect's War Tiger Hall.
Fang Hu had raped and killed the daughter of the Slayer Tiger Alliance's leader during a fight between the sects. Lin Xuan had ordered Zhao Kun to cut off his arm and put him in confinement for a month.
Lin Xuan was not familiar with Fang Hu, but he remembered that this guy was already a Banner Lord of the River Sect. He led 50 elite fighters.
As for the young man in white, Lin Xuan recognized him at a glance. He was the Bamboo Sword Sect's Senior Brother, Xu Tianxing.
Two months ago, Xu Tianxing led a group of Bamboo Sword Sect disciples to attack the Great River Castle at night. However, they were defeated by Yu Tiandi, who appeared out of nowhere. More than half of them were killed or injured. It could be said that they suffered a double loss.
Xu Tianxing was relatively lucky at that time. He escaped during the chaos and disappeared.
Looking at the current situation, this guy seemed to be doing well. His cultivation had improved rapidly, and he had already entered the early stage of the True Energy Realm.
It was a little interesting that these two people were actually together.
"Brother Li, I've finished all the wine on me. I'll go buy some and be back soon. Tell Madam for me," Lin Xuan said to Li Jun.
"Okay, come back quickly. Don't delay Madam's business," Li Jun said.
Lin Xuan jumped off his mount and strode toward the restaurant.
"Shopkeeper, give our Young Master a private room!"
In the restaurant's lobby, a rough man behind Xu Tianxing shouted loudly.
"So it's Young Master Xu. Please come in. The Earth Celestial Pavilion private room is reserved for you!"
Xu Tianxing swaggered up the stairs under the escort of Fang Hu and his subordinates.
"Shopkeeper, I want a private room."
Lin Xuan walked in and said in a low voice.
The waiter ran over and asked with a smile, "Young Master, we have private rooms on the third floor, Heaven Room, and on the second floor, Earth Room. What do you plan to …"
"I'm a person who likes to choose a place to drink. Let's go up and take a look. We'll go to whichever room suits us!"
Lin Xuan casually waved his hand and walked up to the second floor.
Just as he reached the second floor, he happened to see Xu Tianxing and his group enter a private room.
Thus, he pointed to the room next door and said, "This one. Give me ten jars of good wine first, and the dishes will be served later! "
"Alright, please wait a moment!" The attendant left.
Lin Xuan entered the private room and lightly knocked on the wall, only to discover that it was just an ordinary ironwood wall.
He secretly channeled a trace of the Power of Creation and transformed it into corrosive True Essence, sticking it to an inconspicuous corner of the wall.
Soon, the wood chips fell and a small vent appeared on the wall.
He put his ear to it and could easily hear the conversation next door.
"Fang Hu, it's been half a month. How's that matter going? Aren't you and your brother taking too long? "Xu Tianxing said impatiently.
Fang Hu smiled fawningly and said, "Hehe, Young Master Xu, we were going to make our move, but Lin Xuan adjusted the positions in the gang some time ago and transferred my brother from the Dark Hall to the War Tiger Hall, disrupting my brother's deployment.
That little girl, Zhao Yanran, actually took my brother's original position. She quickly gathered many experts around her. It's a bit difficult to make a move now! "
"Hmph! You can't even handle a woman. Can you two brothers still do it? "Xu Tianxing said coldly.
"Young Master Xu, that's not a simple woman! Zhao Yanran is as smart as a ghost. As soon as she entered the Dark Hall, she eliminated most of the spies my brother left behind. It's as if she can see through people's hearts. Even a few veterans can't escape her eyes. My brother thinks that if we want to make a move on her, we can only think of a way to lure her out! "Fang Hu said helplessly.
"Oh? Looks like you already have a plan. Let's hear it, "Xu Tianxing said.
Fang Hu smiled sinisterly and said, "The plan is actually very simple. Zhao Yanran is currently spreading her eyes and ears everywhere. She already plans to send a Banner Master to Sky Wolf City to establish a stronghold.
My brother's plan is that when the time comes, Young Master Xu will arrange for a small faction under the Divine Feather Gang to clash with the River Sect. Then, he will take the opportunity to capture that Banner Master and send someone to inform the River Sect so that a Hall Leader can come and negotiate.
The Dark Hall Leader, Shen Jianchuan, has been in seclusion for the past two days to break through his bottleneck. When the time comes, my brother will make a move, and the Vice Hall Leader, Zhao Yanran, will definitely come personally. As long as we reach Sky Wolf City, hehe, that little girl will be at your mercy! "
"Mm, that's a good plan!"
Xu Tianxing tapped the table lightly with the iron fingers of his left hand and sneered with resentment. "Hmph! That little bastard, Lin Xuan, dared to threaten me with my beloved woman and caused my reputation to be ruined. Not only did I lose my beloved woman, but I also lost an arm. This time, I'm going to give him a taste of his own medicine! I want to see what choice he will make after I kidnap his woman! "
In the private room next door, Lin Xuan was drinking wine while listening to the conspiracy next door. A murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"Fang Yun? Hmph, I've long known that this kid is not someone who knows his place. I didn't expect him to be such a traitor so soon! Very good! "
If he had not happened to be there and learned of Fang Yun and Xu Tianxing's conspiracy, they might have succeeded.
If Zhao Yanran really fell into Xu Tianxing's hands, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Lin Xuan's eyes flashed a few times. He gradually came up with a plan. He put away the unfinished wine, paid the bill, and left.
After leaving the restaurant, he immediately tied a piece of paper to Yu Tiandi's leg and let it fly into the night sky.
When he returned to the entrance of the Spirit Treasures Pavilion, Lady Mi had just come out. The group continued on their way. After passing a few streets, they saw the huge plaque of the Yangwu Marquis Mansion.
There were many luxurious cars in front of the Marquis Mansion. Some nobles and celebrities filed in.
Lin Xuan's eyes were very sharp. He saw a few familiar faces in the crowd from afar. His cousins, Ye Jianxiao and Ye Longyi, were entering together with a group of young masters and young ladies of the same age.
"Damn it, enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road. It seems like this world is not that big!" Lin Xuan cursed in a low voice.
If he was in Fish Dragon Town, he could easily play these cousins to death.
However, Sky Wolf City was not his territory. It would be very troublesome to deal with these two fellows.
"Brother Guan, what's wrong?" Li Jun asked.
"Nothing. I just saw a few familiar faces."
Lin Xuan replied indifferently. He then took out his black iron helmet and put it on.
Lady Mi turned to look at him. A strange look flashed through her beautiful eyes. However, she did not ask any questions. The group continued on their way.
The Yangwu Marquis was one of the nobles with the highest status in Sky Wolf City. The banquet was very grand. Almost all of the nobles and celebrities in the city were invited. It was a place of wine and meat, filled with singing and dancing.
However, Lin Xuan, Li Jun, and the others were only a group of accompanying guards. They did not have the qualifications to enter the main banquet. They were arranged to sit in the outer courtyard and drink with the guards of the other nobles and some low-level military officers.
Li Jun had a wide range of friends. He was familiar with many martial artists. He greeted them and drank until his face and ears were red.
Lin Xuan was too lazy to entertain them. With his identity, it was not suitable for him to be too ostentatious. He sat alone in a corner and drank by himself, killing time.
As for this fellow wearing the black iron helmet, the others only glanced at him curiously and automatically ignored him.
Time slowly passed. Gradually, it was late at night. Some of the nobles who had drunk too much left with their female attendants.
Lady Mi still did not come out. However, Li Jun and the others did not mind.
Everyone knew that Lady Mi and the Marquis were good sisters. It was normal for them to whisper to each other.
