Chapter 342 Cloaked Figure

?

Through the eyes of the puppets, he could see that there were two groups of people that were currently kneeling.

He didn't know what the leader of the Drowning Rat Gang or the Steel Head Gang looked like, but he saw two people who were clearly the leaders of these two groups kneeling at the same time.

The one that they were kneeling to was a cloaked figure who was sitting on a couch in front of them.

This cloaked figure didn't say a thing as they just sat there in front of these two groups.

There seemed to be an oppressive air in this room as they just sat there in silence.

Finally, after a long time, the cloaked figure said, "Your obedience is accepted."

Once they heard this, there was a clear relaxation that ran through the bodies of every person who was kneeling on the ground. However, not a single one of them dared to stand up yet.

The cloaked figure looked down at them and asked, "The matter that we asked you to look into. What do you have?"

Both of the leaders looked at each other before waving their hand at one of their subordinates behind them. These subordinates brought out an envelope each that they placed in the hands of the leaders.

Then both of these leaders offered the envelopes in their hands to the cloaked figure sitting on the couch while still bowing their heads.

The cloaked figure waved a hand and the two envelopes floated into the air. They floated through the air before landing right in the hand of the cloaked figure sitting there.

The cloaked figure opened them up and then slowly looked through the information on them.

What the cloaked figure didn't know was that there was someone peeking over their shoulder.

Or rather, there was a mosquito that was flying there over their shoulder, reading everything on the piece of paper in front of them.

When Lin Fan saw what was written on the piece of paper, he couldn't help deeply knitting his brows.

There wasn't much information that he could get from this piece of paper since there wasn't information on it in the first place. However, there were two words that had caught his attention as soon as he looked at it.

Love Sect.

This was an intelligence report by the two gangs on the whereabouts of the remnants of the Love Sect.

He didn't know why this cloaked figure was asking these two gangs to find information on the remnants of the Love Sect, but it wasn't hard for him to guess that he didn't have good intentions.

It was very likely that this person belonged to the group that had destroyed the Love Sect in the first place.

Lin Fan just didn't expect to run into someone like this right away.

He could guess this person most likely used their power to subdue these two gangs and had forced them to swear loyalty to them.

So he would be able to find out the identity of this person by sending puppets to follow the two gang leaders.

For now, he wanted to see what this cloaked figure would do.

After reading through the report and not getting the information that they wanted, the cloaked figure just sat there in silence.

In the report, there was mention of someone who had claimed to be a survivor of the Love Sect that passed through this town more than two months ago, but they had no idea where that person had gone. It was too long ago that they weren't able to find any trail of that person at all.

That person had left this town in less than a day without telling anyone where he was going, so they had no idea how to find that person.

Other than that, there were just some rumours about the Love Sect in that report.

After a long period of silence, the cloaked figure threw the paper in their hands at the two gang leaders.

When this happened, all of the gang members started trembling in fear.

They knew that the report that they had brought had displeased this cloaked figure. This was something that they had already expected when they saw the results of the report.

But there was nothing that they could do since this was all the information that they had.

The only thing that they could do was show it to the cloaked figure and hope that there would be some way out of it.

The cloaked figure didn't say anything as they suddenly stood up in front of them.

As the cloaked figure just stood there, the gang members all felt chills run down their spines. At the same time, it was as if there was some kind of pressure that was pushing down on them, forcing them into the ground.

This pressure was as heavy as a mountain and it made it hard for them to breathe.

It was too hard for them to even move at this point.

After a long period of silence, the cloaked figure finally said, "You have a week to find one rat from the Love Sect. If you don't, you already know what kind of punishment you will receive."

Without waiting for a response from the gang members, the cloaked figure suddenly disappeared.

When they disappeared, none of the gang members dared to stand up as they kept their heads bowed down. Only after a few minutes passed did they finally dare to look up, but they all had ugly expressions on their faces.

After all, they knew what the cloaked figure was threatening them with…

But even so, they knew that it was close to impossible for them to find a member of the Love Sect like the cloaked figure wanted.

So the only thing that was awaiting them was…their punishment.

After another prolonged silence, the two gang leaders suddenly looked at each other. Then without saying a word, they suddenly grabbed each other's hands as if they were making a pact.

Once that was done, the two groups left the room, but they left in different directions.

The people in the bar were curious about what had happened in the back room, but since neither side was saying anything, there wasn't anything that they could do. They just knew that the back streets of this Flowing Mud Town would change now.

As for Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao, they had been sitting in the bar the whole time watching as well.

But of course, Lin Fan was watching in a different way.

Now that the meeting was over, there was no need for them to stay here any longer, so they quickly left these back streets.

They found an inn on one of the main streets of the town and booked a room.

Once they were in that room, Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao put up barriers to make sure that no one was listening to them.

Only when this was all done did Lin Fan tell Mu Bao Bao what he had heard in the meeting room.

After Mu Bao Bao heard this, she couldn't help knitting her brows. She looked at Lin Fan silently for a bit before asking, "Is this cloaked person related to the ones that destroyed our Love Sect."

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I don't know." But then he added, "But it seems very likely."

There was a flame that suddenly appeared in Mu Bao Bao's eyes, but she also quickly suppressed it. She then said, "What do we do now?"

Lin Fan calmly said, "We came here looking for leads and this is a lead. So we should stay in this town a bit longer and see what kind of information we can get. But of course, this is risky, so I don't know if you'd want to do this."

Mu Bao Bao nodded and said, "This is the best way."

Lin Fan nodded, but then he knitted his brows.

He had his own uneasiness about this plan because of what he had seen in the room.

When the cloaked figure had disappeared, he hadn't been able to tell how that cloaked figure had disappeared. Even using the Appraisal Eyes, he hadn't been able to follow the cloaked figure.

In fact, he wasn't even able to see through the cultivation of the cloaked figure with the Appraisal Eyes.

So he was certain that this person had a powerful technique that could hide their cultivation or…they were much stronger than him. Either of these options wasn't good for him, so there was no need for him to think about it.

The key thing was that this cloaked figure was dangerous.

Mu Bao Bao saw Lin Fan's expression and couldn't help asking something that she suddenly thought of, "What about the Drowned Rat Gang and the Steel Head Gang? Shouldn't we be watching over them?"

These two gangs were related to the cloaked figure, so they were their best chance of getting information.

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I already have someone watching over them, so we don't need to do a thing. Not to mention, if we poke our noses too deep into this, it will easily expose who we are. We don't know what the cloaked figure is capable of, so we shouldn't act too rashly."

Mu Bao Bao thought about it before nodding in agreement.

She trusted Lin Fan's abilities since they had already saved them many times.

So for now, they would just wait and see what the two gangs did.
