Chapter 388: Chapter 388: Cooperative Allies
Although these two people possessed supernatural strength and the weapons they used were quite heavy, their bodies were not very agile.
In a flash, Jin Lingsu had subdued both of them.
“You stole a gemstone from me last time and haven’t settled the account yet, and now you dare to appear before me so brazenly. Do you have a death wish?”
Jin Lingsu didn’t bother with any nonsense, and was about to act with the spike in her hand raised.
Just then, an imposing female figure hurried down from upstairs.
“What’s going on here? Why did a fight break out all of a sudden?”
The woman hurriedly tried to mediate, while also instructing the staff to bring over food and drink.
Jin Lingsu furrowed her brows, seemingly wary of this woman.
She put down the spike, kicked the man to the side, and then returned to her seat.
“Madam, I’m giving you face by not taking action here, but these two fellows are of poor character. If you keep them here, I’m afraid they’ll ruin the feng shui of your tavern.”
Despite this, the woman’s face still wore a smile, without a hint of anger.
“Those who come from north and south are all guests. There’s no need to be so particular. As long as everyone behaves and doesn’t cause trouble, that’s fine.”
Jin Lingsu didn’t say much more, ate a few bites of food, and then went upstairs on her own.
Chen Yu, on the other hand, was staring intently at the two strong men at the neighboring table.
The two men were abnormally well-built, and the patterns that emerged from their tattoos seemed somewhat familiar.
After observing for a while, he too returned to his room.
Tonight, this small town was destined to be unpeaceful.
Most of the people who stopped here were on their way to the Dongming Gorge.
There was more or less some enmity between these people, and if a conflict occurred, it was uncertain what consequences might ensue.
No sooner had Chen Yu sat down in his room than a knock sounded from outside, interestingly insistent.
“Mr. Chen, an old gentleman has arrived downstairs. He says he’s your friend and invites you for a drink.”
Chen Yu furrowed his brow and immediately used the system to scan the surroundings.
Apart from Jin Lingsu, there was not a single familiar face.
But he didn’t care about that much, since someone had invited him, it made no sense not to go.
In a corner of the lobby, a middle-aged man was sitting steadily, gnawing on lamb.
Chen Yu didn’t bother with pleasantries and just sat opposite the man, who also had tattoos.
The design of the tattoo was exactly the same as the patterns on the two men Jin Lingsu had disciplined earlier.
They must be from the same organization.
Chen Yu directly picked up the wine on the table and took a sip.
“What business do you have with me, sir?”
The middle-aged man was taken aback.
The two had never met in such a situation before, and Chen Yu would at least have asked for his name or other basic information.
Instead, he had gotten straight to the point.
The man swallowed the lamb in his mouth and then clasped his hands together.
“Mr. Chen, I am Wu Rihan, the current leader of the Cangwang Mingyue organization.”
Chen Yu’s pupils dilated suddenly; he had indeed heard of the Cangwang Mingyue organization before.
It was said that the Mongolian Empire once dispatched several expedition teams, each led by a royal family member.
Their mission was to preserve the bloodline of the Mongolian royalty and search for treasures to regain their lost kingdom.
