ch 526 - Group Breakthrough; Heading to Capital City 7 (1/2)

“Ten or so?”

Zhu Xiangyu stood up reflexively and started pacing back and forth as he said, “Something must have happened. They wouldn’t otherwise come here and bringing so many others with them. What is it that brought them here?

“Could it be the imperial family? I remember the second prince went in the ring causing trouble last time and was taught a lesson and sent back. Could that be what it was? But, we haven’t heard anything about that since. And if that wasn’t it, what could it be?”

As he was thinking and mumbling to himself, the innkeeper next to him dared not interrupt him. Truth be told, he was quite curious what had brought the Cheng’s to Capital City as well.

“I haven’t heard anything from the imperial family, so that doesn’t seem like it. Perhaps it is…”

Zhu Xiangyu paused in his steps for a little while before he resumed his pacing. He said lightly to himself, “The Cheng’s have acted? They had really targeted Sacred Land Zhongyuan? I haven’t heard anything about Sacred Land Zhongyuan being targeted recently either. That didn’t sound very likely either. So what could it be?

“It looks like we have too little information on this and there is no way we could figure out why they are here!”

Zhu Xiangyu seemed a bit disappointed. He slowly came to a stop and relaxed his furrowed brows. “Well, I will go greet them in a bit. One way or another, now that I know they are here, I should go and greet them at the very minimum.

“Okay, you may go now. Treat them like VIP and make sure they have the best service. Now go.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

After the innkeeper had left, Zhu Xiangyu walked over to the chair and sat down. He sat there quietly and spaced out, distracted about something.
