Chapter Seven Hundred and Six – The Mysterious Old Man (2/2)

A Heng woke up from his meditation and his restless heart finally stilled.

Just as he had expected, the Tang Family had a close relationship with Marshal Di. Every time he requested to meet with Tang Chen, the servants would politely tell him the patriarch was busy and not present.

A Heng understood what this meant.

Before this, while Tang Chen had been ambiguous about an alliance, he had been polite to the Ji Family. But his attitude was clear now.

A Heng knew the alliance would not occur.

The new orders from his family patriarch also came to him.

There were two orders: Damage the alliance between the Tang Family and Marshal Di, assassinate Xiao Yun Hai but do not let the Tang Family suspect the Ji Family!

Looking at the orders from the patriarch, A Heng grimaced. Any of the two was almost impossible to complete. The Tang Family and Marshal Di probably had allied together a long time ago, but people just didn’t know about it. It also wasn’t simple to kill Xiao Yun Hai. The fight that had occurred at the market during the day had reached his ears a long time ago.

Xiao Yun Hai’s mute servant’s strength was unfathomable, and an extremely powerful young female yao had also came out along the way. She had been able to fight to a tie with the head guard of the Tang Family, her strength … …

Where female sidekicks starting come into style in the world?

Xiao Mo Ge was like that, Xiao Yun Hai was the same, but had even more, three of them!

Suddenly, A Heng’s mind moved. His expression darkened. “Who!”

Before he finished speaking, his figure slowly became faint.

At the same time, A Heng appeared outside his room. There was a paper gripped in his hand. His face was dark. Even now, his afterimage in the room had not disappeared.

So fast!

A Heng was astounded. From discovery to attack, the other had disappeared without a trace. The understood that the only reason he had sensed the intruder was that deliberate on the other’s part.

This thought caused his bones to shiver.

This also meant that if the other tried to sneak an attack on him, he probably would not be able to avoid it.

The person was incomprehensibly strong.

Also, what did the other want? He looked in puzzlement at the paper and a joyful light quickly came into his eyes.

Tian Huan!

He hadn’t thought that there would be disciples from Tian Huan in Gongzi Xi’s group! He hadn’t thought that Marshal Di had a secret relationship with Tian Huan!

A Heng almost wanted to roar with laughter.

Ever since Xiao Mo Ge appeared, the general trend of events suggested that the yao, mo, and xiu were merging together. Xiao Mo Ge was a mo, and no one thought there was anything wrong for him to have xiuzhe under his command. They would feel proud that Xiao Mo Ge were able to conquer xiuzhe.

Some of the wiser factions could see that the merging of the three would be unstoppable, but among the people, this was not common. The hatred between yaomo, and xiuzhe would not be resolved so easily.

In A Heng’s view, the alliance of Marshal Di and Tian Huan was a great move.

But things like this could not be made public. Everyone could only have unspoken agreements in secret. Otherwise when people discovered this, just the spit was enough to drown Marshal Di.

A cruel smile floated onto A Heng’s lips.

What he held in his hand was a fatal weapon!

———

Zuo Mo in disguise felt proud as he sneaked through the darkness.

The Ji Family wasn’t a good one, but they had the power to make things difficult for Tian Huan. Even if they used just their toes, Zuo Mo knew that the Ji Family could destroy the alliance with what they had now.

Let the dogs fight themselves!

Zuo Mo lacked good feelings about these people.

After doing this devious thing, Zuo Mo felt unspeakably comfortable. In such a good state, forging mo weapons would be easy!

At this time, Zuo Mo suddenly stilled and his smugness disappeared. He was like a wild beast that felt danger and immediately entered his battle state.

In the corner of the street, a figure slowly appeared.

“Your wariness isn’t bad.”

The incomer praised. His figure was revealed in front of Zuo Mo. An old man dressed in rags like a homeless man. His face was heavily wrinkled, his eyes muddy, and he had no presence.

But Zuo Mo did not dare to underestimate the other.

The old man stood there casually but he seemed to be one with the darkness around him.

Zuo Mo had never seen such a synchrony from other people, even in those so called concealment experts.

“Who are you?” Zuo Mo asked.

The old man looked with interest in Zuo Mo. He grinned. “You can call me Old Man.” Then he said in a familiar tone, “Your disguise isn’t bad. Oh, your sun shen power isn’t bad. You really have good luck to have obtained the inheritance from the Sun Shen Tribe. Not bad at all.”

“Who are you?” Zuo Mo was astounded. The other clearly knew that he was Xiao Mo Ge, and even discovered the shen power he cultivated with a glance!

The old man grinned to show a mouth of yellowed and missing teeth. “Haha, young person, you have to be patient. Hm, where’s your maid?”

The murderousness in Zuo Mo’s eyes were as sharp as swords!

Translator Ramblings: And Zuo Mo’s streak ends at one.
