Chapter 1192

(Unedited)

…

Nobody bothers with Xin Ja as he enters the pub. Although there are people who look at him, then disdainfully look away upon seeing his low cultivation level.

Xin Ja did not mind such a reaction as he just enters the pub and then found a seat in a dark corner.

"What would you like to have?" a waiter asked while looking at Xin Ja.

At this time, Xin Ja is wearing a disguise. He looks like a man in his 30's with a large scar on his face.

"Wine…" he said in a low tone.

The waiter just nodded his head and then walks away.

Xin Ja began to listen to the conversation of the people around him.

And it did not take long before he heard someone talking on the second floor. Although that guy's voice is small, it did not escape Xin Ja's sharp ears.

"Elder Lin told us to be careful these days… It seems that the military is getting wary of our movements. I think it has something to do with the 4th prince."

"Hmm… This is not going to be pretty. If the 4th prince now enters the picture, then the plans of the 6th prince would surely be affected, right?"

"No… Although those two are not aiming to be the crown prince, they are supporting those that are aiming for that crown."

"Then… what should we do then? Will we stop the operation in the fortress?"

"No, we cannot do that. Instead, we should just be wary of anyone."

"Where is Elder Lin now?"

"He is traveling back to the 5th fortress town…"

"Hmm… This is a total mess. This happens just because of a young brat. Damn it! If it were me, I would have already killed that brat."

"Haha… Well, I would say that you would have already been dead. Did you know that Elder Ra has not returned ever since he meets that brat? And those that we have sent to that place did not return. So what can an insignificant guy like you do against that brat?"

Everyone suddenly turned silent.

But this time, Xin Ja did not have time to think about anything else, he has already gotten the information that he needed, all he has to do now is to try and chase after the caravan of that Elder Lin.

He left a few silver on the table and left the pub.

Xin Ja did not hesitate to walk to one of the tall walls of the fortress and quickly climb it like it was nothing. When he reached the two, he looks at the soldiers patrolling and he stealthily jumps down to the other side.

His smooth action did not catch the attention of the soldiers patrolling the walls of the fortress.

Xin Ja quickly takes out his motorbike and rode the dark rough road towards the 5th fortress town. When he was marching towards the fortress before with the army, he was able to see this town from the outside.

So he is a bit familiar with the road.

It did not take long before he arrive on the outskirts of the town and saw the caravan. However, they are already entering the town at this point and it would cause far too much commotion if he chases after them.

Xin Ja quickly climbs up a tree and began observing the carriages entering the town.

Every now and then he would change his location and observe until he saw the carriages stop near the edge of the town where there is a large manor.

He then saw some people getting off the carriages and carefully observes the situation.

But because of the distance, it was still hard for him to distinguish the person who is being followed by the rest as they enter the manor.

"Hmm… I need to go near that place…" he said with a frown.

Entering and exiting the town of Ogden was easy for him, so how could this town be different.

And so it did not take long before, Xin Ja was able to infiltrate the manor where that Elder Li is staying. He could see that there are many guards in the area, and he had to stealthily enter the manor with caution.

Xin Ja soon caught the sight of four people inside the main manor. He lies prone on the rooftop and controlled his breathing.

He then observes the four people talking inside the main manor.

From their breathing along, he could tell that these people are at level 10, and if he is caught by them, then he is sure that he would not be able to escape this place alive. So he could only rely on his training in blending himself into his surroundings.

"Elder Lin… the 6th prince will be coming here 3 days from now. You should prepare to accept him."

"Hmm… Is he going to personally deal with that brat?" Elder Lin asked with furrowed brows.

This news is not a piece of good news for him. If the 6th prince personally makes his move, then that only means that he is incompetent. So how could he feel relieved?

But he himself could do nothing about that young lad. He did not even dare to enter that Misty forest to find trouble for them. Even though his cultivation level is high, he would not want to suffer the same fate as that of Elder Ra who has not returned ever sin.

Plus, they all knew that he is already dead... because Elder Ra is someone who would always return to the base no matter what happens.

And since he has not come back then that only means one thing… and that is his death.

"Yes… he wanted to offer that guy a choice. Either, die or follow him… Hahaha…"

"Well, if that guy is wise, he would follow the prince." Elder Lin said with a sneer.

Xin Ja was a but taken aback. Then an idea came to his mind which he immediately discarded.

"How could I kill a prince of the kingdom?" he muttered to himself.

"No… If I assassinate this Elder Lin, then that 6th prince would surely be startled and might not even visit this place in fear, right?" Xin Ja thought as the idea truly became cemented.

"Rest tight… tomorrow will be your last day…" Xin Ja said with a smile.

He did not want to stay in this place anymore as he has already gotten what he wanted from this place. Xin Ja quickly left the place.

"Huh?" Elder Lin suddenly looks outside the window and frowns.

"What is wrong Elder Lin?" one of the men asked.

"No… nothing. I just thought that."

"Haha… Do you think that someone is watching us? With the number of guards we have in this Manor, even a mouse could not possibly enter this place, right?"

"Yes, you're just too cautious. Let's just prepare for the arrival of the 6th prince… Tomorrow we will all be busy with the preparation."

The group then began to discuss a lot of things, but this time, Xin Ja is already returning back to the fortress.

He has already determined what he should do next and how he would do it with an extreme amount of fear effect that would surely startle that prince from visiting this place.

He is not yet ready to face the prince and his power is not yet that strong. He is only at the 3rd level, and he has a long way to go before reaching the level of those powerful people.

But of course, he has been able to augment that using his gears. The 10th level is something that he could fight face to face though it would surely be a hard fight for him.

But of course, once his opponent is above that level, then Xin Ja would not be able to contend with them unless he found a stronger material that would be able to augment the strength of those in the Ki Adept level.

So his only option to fight them is through sneak attacks and assassinations.

After returning to the manor of the Zhangs, Xin Ja takes off his clothes and hid them in his ring. He then lay down in bed and closes his eyes to sleep.

Tomorrow is the day that he would execute the plan he has in his mind.

He did not know what would happen next, but if his conjecture is right, then he would be able to buy himself sometime before his master could think of another way to help him.

"The 4th prince… Hmm… What kind of person is he? Hopefully, he is not like that 6th prince… I would not want to be cautious all the time. One prince is already stressing me out… Another one would be truly troublesome…" Xin Ja muttered as his consciousness slowly faded.

That night, the 5th fortress sleeps silently unaware of the danger and the chaos that is about to happen the next day.

And nobody would think that the one who is going to be responsible for that chaos… is currently peacefully sleeping.
