Chapter 803: Chapter 273: What’s Going On Here? 【Two in One】 Chapter 803: Chapter 273: What’s Going On Here? 【Two in One】 He Xiangming was overjoyed, striding quickly to the door, but upon opening it, she was t by a man in black. He appeared to be in his thirties, simply dressed, with an honest countenance and two small mustaches.
“Who are you?” He Xiangming, having never seen this person, could not help but ask in surprise.
“Are you Chief He in person?”
The man with the small mustaches replied, “I was sent by Master Ling to pick up a few distinguished guests for a eting. He does not wish to et strangers on soone else’s territory.”
“Oh, oh, oh…”
The sliver of doubt that had arisen in He Xiangming’s heart was dispelled by these words.
For this matter, apart from herself and Feng Yin’s people, there was no way anyone else could know; besides, what the small-mustache man said made perfect sense. What kind of person was Master Ling? He was an unparalleled Beast Taming Master whom she had never t before. If he were to rashly enter unfamiliar territory, what if soone captured him by force?
“I haven’t seen you before.”
He Xiangming was trying to make connections.
“I am rely an unknown figure who, out of Master’s grace, has been covertly protecting him for many years,” said the man with the small mustaches plainly. “This is not my true appearance, so it’s normal that Chief He hasn’t seen before.”
“I see.”
He Xiangming vaguely rembered that Ling Yunduan had indeed ntioned having a secret bodyguard. It seed this was the person.
Everything matched up.
“Please co in, co in. Let introduce you to them, it won’t take much longer.”
Xin Huai De and Xin Huai Rou had already stood up, and upon seeing the man in black outside, they nodded with smiling faces, “Thank you for your hard work.”
“No need for introductions. The famous brothers Xin Huai De and Xin Huai Rou, I have long heard of you, it’s deafening.”
The man with the small mustaches smiled, “To speak the truth, you both are also my seniors, so… let’s go now, so we don’t miss the Hour of Tiger.”
Xin Huai De chuckled and said, “It seems the Master really is on an urgent schedule.”
“Indeed,” the man with the small mustaches replied. “The divine beast that the Master has been searching for for a long ti is said to be giving birth in the next few days. If not for this, he would not have hurried to prepare the insect-repelling secret dicine, planning to depart at the Hour of Tiger. To have a mont’s face-to-face with you two is already the limit.”
“Why the rush!”
Everyone was taken aback.
Xin Huai De and Xin Huai Rou hurried out, followed by their twenty-four escorts, who also ca out.
“There’s no helping it, we all have clear eyes and know that the best mont to ta such a young creature is right after it’s born when it first opens its eyes,” the man with the small mustaches briefly explained, then urged, “Let’s go quickly.”
“Alright!”
He Xiangming said, “I’ll also accompany you, as I have so questions to ask the Master.”
The man with the small mustaches directly refused, “There’s no need. Chief He, you’ve already played your part in enabling this eting, and following us now would indeed be inconvenient.”
Xin Huai De laughed heartily, “This brother is frank and straightforward, truly refreshing. Chief He, you should rest.”
He distinctly sensed the man with the small mustaches distancing himself from He Xiangming, it was very likely due to He Xiangming speaking out for them and having offended Master Ling.
However, this was to their advantage. They themselves might seize the opportunity to take over. The ntion of a divine beast’s cub from Master Ling’s mouth was truly enticing, and perhaps it was better to make slight adjustnts to their already set plans. Maybe they could acquire another divine beast cub to their account, wouldn’t that add another joy, with three joys arriving at their doorstep?!
“Alright.”
Watching the group led by the man with the small mustaches take off and vanish into the snowy night sky, He Xiangming stood blankly for a mont, feeling strangely uneasy and lost.
Although she no longer held any doubts, she could not explain why she felt a certain unease.
She always felt that sothing was… off?
But upon careful reflection, she could find nothing amiss.
Thus, lost in thought for a mont, He Xiangming closed the door and began to wash up, preparing to rest.
“Sigh, going out again in this heavy snow weather…”
He Xiangming sighed, “The Master really doesn’t have it easy.”
Clearly, Feng Yin’s ntion of leaving was true; he had indeed said as much to He Xiangming, and that’s why she did not feel the sa estrangent as Xin Huai De.
And this also ant that, for the coming period, Beast Taming Master Ling Yunduan would once again vanish from Yuezhou City.
…
In the snowy night.
Xin Huai De walked side by side with the man with the small mustaches, observing the route they were taking which was still inside the city, and felt even more at ease.
“Does the Master live in the city?”
“Of course, the Master has his own residence in Yuezhou City. Otherwise, where would he keep those young creatures?”
It seed the man with the small mustaches had inadvertently revealed a secret.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional.
Xin Huai De’s eyes lit up, and he carefully filed away the information: a large residence, with young creatures, and it was not leased out.
Because the Master would surely not allow others to pry into his secrets.
But in the current state of Yuezhou, such a place was not only not secretive, but it was also too conspicuous, too easy to find.
It was virtually a nit on a bald head, an obvious existence.
Xin Huai De quickly ford a plan in his mind.
The group continued to walk at an unhurried pace, and because they kept talking and exchanging words, the atmosphere did not grow too solemn.
Xin Huai De even felt that the cold snowflakes whipped onto his face by the wind seed gentler.
If they could gain control of Ling Yunduan, the Beast Taming Master, the rise of the Xin family would be just around the corner, ready to burst forth with unprecedented splendor.
