“Guard Captain Wei, up so early. Sorry, no grilled skewers at this hour.” Lu Yang teased at the doorway with a smile.

It was still morning when Guard Captain Wei, along with two constables and a flamboyant banner, arrived at the barbecue shop.

“All, didn’t we agree on the banner? So, here I’m delivering it to you.” Guard Captain Wei flapped the banner on the main street, intentionally displaying it. Emblazoned on the banner were the words “Be brave for justice, uphold righteousness”.

Expectedly, this act drew a considerable crowd.

The two constables hung the banner on the wall directly opposite to the front door of the lobby, making it highly visible.

Originally, there were two ghouls skewering in the lobby, but Lu Yang had them move to the backyard earlier to avoid being seen.

Lu Yang brought over three cups of tea and casually asked, “What did you find out from those dimwit thieves yesterday? Why would these outsiders take the risk to provoke the famous Poker Face Constable?”

“Oh, don’t even mention it. Couldn’t get a single word out of them,” Guard Captain Wei picked up his tea and downed it in a gulp.

A cultivator at Foundation Establishment Stage can withstand scalding water.

“Why’s that?”

“The dimwits had weak wills. They began to talk as soon as they got scared, but just as they were about to divulge why a group of cultivators came to Yanjiang County, unknown assassins killed them. They had cow hair poison needles stuck in their neck and died instantly. The room was sealed, but we don’t know how the assassins got in.”

“At that moment, I instinctively went outside to look for the assassins, but found nothing. Later on, I realized that the killers must have mastered a magic skill related to shadows. They must have hidden in the shadows beforehand. As soon as we started questioning, they struck, and slipped away through shadows

when I ran out.”

“If I had blocked the door at that time, we could’ve caught the assassin. I regret that my anger at the moment stopped me from thinking about it,” Guard Captain Wei finished and angrily drunk both his tea and the constables’.

The two constables gaped at Guard Captain Wei. They hadn’t even had a sip yet. Grinning, Lu Yang saw off the sulky Guard Captain Wei and the two unlucky constables who didn’t even get to quench their thirst.

Meng Jingzhou spoke through voice transmission, “As per yesterday’s plan, should we kill Qin Yuanhao?”

After returning last night, Lu Yang had shared what he found. Since they now knew the location of Yanjiang Rudder, Qin Yuanhao seemed no longer necessary to be kept alive.

The three made a plan to ambush Qin Yuanhao overnight.

To be specific, it was Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou who discussed while Man Gu merely listened.

“No rush, I have a new idea. Let’s prepare a bit more.

A figure in a black robe lightly knocked on the door of Qin Yuanhao’s house. No one answered for a long while.

The figure in black just waited.

Finally, the front door opened, but there was no one in sight, as if it had opened

by itself.

The wide-open gate resembled a demonic maw ready to devour unsuspecting souls.

Unhurriedly, the figure in black entered the mansion. The moment he stepped

in, the door slammed shut and bolted, locking him inside.

The figure in black took out a bone token and spoke loudly, “Is Senior Qin Yuanhao home? I am here on behalf of my master to pay a visit.”

“I was wondering who it could be. Turns out it’s a ghoul under Brother Tiger.” The voice came from behind the ghoul. Qin Yuanhao appeared abruptly. The ghoul didn’t notice where Qin had approached from, as if he had manifested out of thin air.

“What brings you here?”

“My master has been thinking for some time and believes in your words that it’s good to have strong backing. He wishes to join Yanjiang Rudder. However, he is still somewhat apprehensive and would like to meet you on Song

Mountain.”

Qin Yuanhao looked at the ghoul with amusement, “Oh, I thought Brother Tiger had no intention to join Yanjiang Rudder since he hasn’t replied for so long.”

The ghoul laughed obsequiously, “Our master takes more time to ponder.” Qin Yuanhao’s face hardened. He grabbed the ghoul’s throat, “Dare to trick me? Tell me, who sent you? Considering Brother Tiger’s nature, how could he voluntarily join Yanjiang Rudder!”

The ghoul was panic-stricken and finally admitted that someone indeed sent him.

Qin Yuanhao strengthened his grip, causing the ghoul to weaken and finally telling the truth.

“A few days ago, some short-sighted cultivators ventured into Song Mountain. They accidentally discovered my master’s whereabouts and he killed them. When collecting their clothes, it was found that their sect was extraordinary, having a great power in the Golden Core Stage among their elders.” “My master was scared that a Golden Core Stage cultivator might come looking for him. He remembered Senior Qin’s invitation, hence, after persuading the lady master, decided to join the Yanjiang Rudder. He sent me to invite you over to discuss the specifics.”

Having gotten the answer he wanted, Qin Yuanhao casually tossed the ghoul aside: “That sounds more reasonable.”

Qin Yuanhao no longer doubted the ghoul and followed him to Song Mountain. “Senior Qin, our master is waiting for you just ahead.” The ghoul said respectfully, “Our master doesn’t like eavesdropping, please proceed.”

Qin Yuanhao ignored the ghoul and walked on alone.

The forest was dense and quiet, as if untouched by humans for a long time. The chirping of birds in the distance added a sense of tranquility.

A four-meter-long Tiger Demon sat cross-legged ahead, and there were two cups of tea on the stone table as if expecting a guest.

Qin Yuanhao unconsciously relaxed his guard and quickened his pace. Suddenly, his magic skill automatically operated, forming a thin film on his body to block an unexpected attack, leaving only a faint line of blood on his neck.

“It’s a trap!”

Qin Yuanhao, with his vast experience, quickly retreated and noticed an almost invisible thread at the height of his neck.

“This noodle is really useful, almost beheaded him.

A gloating voice sounded from a tree on Qin Yuanhao’s right and it belonged to Meng Jingzhou.

What Qin Yuanhao had seen was not a thread, but the dragon whisker noodle that Lu Yang had bought from the canteen.

As per the Senior Brother who sold the noodles, this hanging noodle was virtually lethal and perfect for laying traps.

Had Qin Yuanhao’s magic skill not been special with automatic defense, he would have already been beheaded.

“You dare to ambush me!” Qin Yuanhao angrily stared at the Tiger Demon. This was not about discussing joining the Yanjiang Rudder at all. It was a trap from the start!

However, the Tiger Demon had already disappeared. The ground beneath Qin Yuanhao was soft and the Green Peak Sword aimed straight for his crotch. Luckily, Qin Yuanhao reacted swiftly. His right knee collided with the Green Peak Sword, changing its direction and protecting his vital part.

Seeing the situation unfavourable, he turned and ran.

He was unprepared, whereas the others were well-prepared. How could he fight in such a situation?

“It must be people of the Demon Path!” Qin Yuanhao was certain. That move was too nasty. Which Righteous Path fighter would make such a move?

Man Gu, who had been waiting behind him for a long time, swung a tree towards him. Qin Yuanhao was thrown far away.

“Hmm, why didn’t I feel that?” Man Gu looked puzzled. He clearly hit the target, but it felt as if he had hit a piece of paper.

Qin Yuanhao flew a good distance but appeared uninjured.

“Be careful, his magic skill is very strange!” Man Gu warned loudly.

“A few juniors trying to deal with me? You’re a hundred years too early!” Qin Yuanhao laughed heartily. As long as his magical skill’s true use could not be discovered, nobody could catch him.

Nonchalantly, Lu Yang jumped into mid-air. Using his jade pendant, he said to Qin Yuanhao, “Take!”

Qin Yuanhao was stunned. He did not understand what had happened. The jade pendant looked like some kind of storage ring, but a storage ring couldn’t hold him.

Qin Yuanhao noticed Lu Yang and the others watching him with strange eyes. He slowly looked down to find himself naked; his clothes were gone.

Qin Yuanhao’s clothes were stored in the jade pendant and he stood in the air shivering with only his underwear on.

“Damn it, you guys are the weird ones!”
