"Can’t you read?"
Sikong Heng replied irritably, a clear sign that he was already furious.
Then, he suddenly realized that the signboard of the Sikong Family had been taken down.
Yin Tian, however, showed no dissatisfaction with Sikong Heng’s response.
On the contrary, he smiled at Sikong Heng and said, "My apologies, it seems we’ve caused you quite so trouble."
After that, Yin Tian took Yu Mingmiao’s small hand and made directly for the inside of the house.
"Stop right there! You..."
Just as Sikong Heng had called out to Yin Tian, he suddenly noticed sothing amiss.
This guy...
Could he possibly be from that newly advanced first-class family?
Yin Tian stopped in his tracks, turning his head to look at Sikong Heng, wondering what he wanted.
"Why... why did you choose my house?"
Sikong Heng asked an astute question, skillfully avoiding the embarrassnt of mistaking soone’s identity while seeking clarity on the motive.
"Well..."
Yin Tian grinned at Sikong Heng, "You might want to ask your son about that."
Sikong Heng’s body shook as he ca to a rough understanding of what had happened.
"That unfilial son!"
Sikong Heng roared in a low voice.
To think that a prestigious second-class family had been unceremoniously driven out of their own ho, this was bound to beco a laughingstock in Central City!
He could even foresee the humiliation of being unable to raise his head as he walked down the streets in the future!
"Hmph!"
Sikong Heng strode off into the distance, too ashad to remain any longer.
As for the other mbers of the Sikong Family, they too looked at Yin Tian with fear and then hurried off.
It must be said that the actions of the inspectorate were indeed swift.
When they said an hour, they really emptied out the Sikong Family’s possessions within one hour!
Yin Tian, accompanied by Yu Mingmiao, surveyed the inside of the house and nodded in satisfaction.
However...
Yin Tian sat on a stone bench, his brows slightly furrowed.
"What’s the matter?"
Yu Mingmiao stood beside Yin Tian and asked softly.
"Although this place is quite nice, it does not ensure your safety,"
Yin Tian said with a furrowed brow, "Sotis, I might need to go out to handle so matters, and in such cases, leaving you all at ho makes uneasy."
"Perhaps..."
Yu Mingmiao spoke softly, "Should I have my mother send so Heretic Feng Shui Masters to protect this place?"
Yin Tian shook his head, "No, I don’t trust those guys."
Having dealt with Heretic Feng Shui Masters too often, Yin Tian knew all too well that those people were no trivial opponents.
Especially when they would see that Su Qinwei and the other girls were all girls of Pure Yin Destiny with abundant fortunes, it was inevitable that they might harbor ulterior motives.
"Hmm..."
Yu Mingmiao seed to have thought of sothing and then said, "Didn’t your masters give you an organization called the Shadow Hall before? Why not have so assassins from the Shadow Hall co over?"
Yu Mingmiao recognized her own limitations and knew she could not protect Su Qinwei and the other girls all by herself.
That’s why she was so eager to offer Yin Tian ideas.
Yin Tian was startled.
He had nearly forgotten about that.
Though the Shadow Hall was an organization of assassins.
Yet...
Who said assassins couldn’t protect?
Sotis, assassins are more professional than bodyguards; they know how to conceal themselves, revealing their fangs only when necessary—indeed, they are the perfect candidates for bodyguards!
"Good, let’s do it that way."
Yin Tian took out his phone and dialed the number posted on the back of the token for the Lord of the Shadow Hall.
The phone rang twice before it was answered.
"Hello, Master,"
ca a low, sowhat hoarse voice from the other end.
Yin Tian got straight to the point, "I’m currently in the Imperial Capital, Central City, and I need so assassins for protection."
The person on the other end did not show any surprise that the speaker was a man.
"Understood, I’ll imdiately dispatch all the five-star assassins within Huaxia to Central City to await your commands, Master."
"Good, make it fast."
The call ended, and Yin Tian had not expected things to go so smoothly.
Now that Su Qinwei and the others’ safety issue was resolved, Yin Tian no longer had any concerns.
He was about to take Yu Mingmiao to pick up Su Qinwei and the others when a voice ca from outside.
"Excuse , is Mr. Yin present?"
"Who is it?"
Yin Tian responded and then stood up, heading outside.
He saw a middle-aged man with gold-rimd round glasses stepping in, who upon seeing Yin Tian, instantly bead with a smile, "Mr. Yin, hello. Hearing that you’ve settled in Central City, I’ve co at our Master’s behest to invite you to a banquet tonight."
"A banquet? And who is your Master?"
"Our Master is a mber of a first-class family, just like you. He is very curious about you and has specifically instructed to invite you to this banquet, which is arranged solely in your honor. Please do us the favor of attending."
The man smiled as he took out an invitation from his pocket.
The invitation was glittering with gold, and the characters on it were actually cast after lting pure gold!
Quite extravagant indeed!
Yin Tian smiled broadly.
Now, he was a bit curious.
This invitation...
Was it truly a welcoming banquet, or another Banquet of Hongn!
