Chapter 991: Chapter 991: Sneaking into the Front Row to Watch the Drama
So, it doesn’t matter if they don’t follow orders, right?
Besides, going to gather information tonight will also help plan tomorrow’s actions.
Both of them had plenty of reasons they had to set out, emotionally and logically. After discussing, they ate so stead buns and prepared to rest until nightfall.
It wasn’t until midnight that they lazily got up and moved around.
At this ti, though it was past one o’clock, other than the guards patrolling, there was hardly a soul walking around.
Using the cover of night, the two shot into the sky like fireworks.
To avoid detection, they flew at an altitude calculated directly in tens of thousands of ters. In just monts, they arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion.
Compared to the residential area, the guarding here was noticeably tighter.
Moreover, lookout guards were stationed on many high platforms, ard with crossbows, their eyes wide like brass bells glinting with vigilance. Even a moth fluttering by would trigger their alertness, let alone a person.
Bai Junjun and Li Wenli hovered in the air for a long ti before finally finding a blind spot in the guards’ vision to descend slowly into a corner.
However, while they managed to evade the lookout guards, they couldn’t avoid the patrol guards.
Just as they landed, they ran into a team of six patrol guards. Fortunately, both of them were swift and agile, striking before the guards could react.
The two dodged forward, each taking down three guards. In just a few seconds, all six were incapacitated.
Then Bai Junjun used his Special Ability to manipulate vines to drag the six guards under a house, turning them into fertilizer for the earth.
With that, the two put on the guards’ uniforms and blended into the patrol team.
After winding through nurous paths, they finally arrived at the reception hall.
The two quickly climbed onto the beams and concealed themselves there.
The people in the reception hall remained completely unaware, still intently reading their letters.
The person appeared to be in their thirties, with a round face and body equally round. He was far from handso, but he exuded a dignified and opulent aura. Especially after spending two days in the impoverished district, Bai Junjun regarded this person as resembling a luxurious curry fish ball.
Of course, Bai Junjun’s vivid imagination could also be credited to Li Wenli’s illustrated food book. Just as Bai Junjun was pondering what curry fish balls might taste like, a young man in a purple robe entered from outside.
The newcor saw the person seated in the hall and raised his hand courteously in greeting.
“Cousin.”
The curry atball lifted his eyelids slightly, giving him a faintly mocking glance: “I heard you still haven’t found Yuwen Luanfei.”
Yuwen Jun simply raised his hand in salute without responding.
“Ninth Brother, that’s where you’re wrong. Father clearly ordered you to capture Yuwen Luanfei alive, yet what kind of work are you doing? How can we possibly entrust the kingdom to you like this?”
Yuwen Jun remained silent, his eyes lowered in restraint.
The curry atball stood up: “Looks like Father was right. You’re still too young and inexperienced. Starting today, I’ll assist you in tracking down Yuwen Luanfei together.”
“Thank you, Cousin.” Yuwen Jun’s raised hand remained unmoving, but he finally spoke.
“No need to thank . After all, we’re brothers, aren’t we?” The curry atball remarked aningfully, then added, “Oh, I heard you were ambushed by a mysterious figure the day you lost Yuwen Luanfei?”
“Yes.” Yuwen Jun didn’t bother to hide it.
“What’s going on? Are Lao San’s remnants still not dealt with thoroughly?”
“Perhaps.” Yuwen Jun replied lightly.
“That won’t do,” the curry atball said earnestly, patting Yuwen Jun’s shoulder heavily.
