Chapter 68: Lin Jiang Mansion
Chapter 68: Lin Jiang Mansion
The ‘boss’ took out a flute and played it.
A group of men in black suddenly rushed out.
“Bring the items away first. I’ll kill them all.”
When the men in black heard that, they boarded the cart and were prepared to leave.
However, at this moment, everyone who was lying on the table suddenly woke up. They were caught off guard.
When the others regained their senses, half of the men in black had already been killed.
Chu Yun smiled coldly. “If you want to take something from us, you’ll have to see if you’re still alive.”
“You... You’re alright? How can that be?”
The ‘girl’ was so angry that she stomped her feet. “There’s definitely no mistake with my bewitching incense matched with this tea!”
Lu Sheng crossed her arms over her chest. She raised her eyebrow and smiled evilly. “Why don’t you take a look and see if your fragrance is still there?”
When the ‘girl’ heard that, her eyes widened immediately. She lowered her head to look at the bottom of the table. That was when she realized that her bewitching incense had either been extinguished by the tea or stepped on by someone.
“When did you discover this?”
How could these people smell her bewitching incense?
Lu Sheng leaned against the tea table and smiled. “I’ve smelled it since I entered.”
The ‘boss’s’ face darkened and looked at Chu Sihan. “Master is right. We can’t underestimate you!”
They had underestimated their enemy.
That made sense. If Chu Sihan was that easy to deal with, how would he have become the magistrate of Lin Jiang Mansion at such a young age?
“If I’m not wrong, you’re from An Luo Sect.”
Chu Sihan stood beside Lu Sheng and spoke calmly to the ‘boss’.
An Luo Sect was a martial arts sect in the pugilistic world. Although others did not know who the master behind was, he knew very well.
In the early years, An Luo Sect was once in their prime. However, ever since the Sect Master was assassinated by his enemies, and his disciple, Qi Nan, took over, their status in the pugilistic world plummeted.
This Qi Nan was Chu Silin’s lackey.
He should be the one who lured him out of Huang Yang Town back then.
That ‘boss’ and that ‘woman’ looked at each other before attacking at the same time. With a deafening blast, the surroundings were instantly covered in white smoke.
“Cough— Cough—”
Those who were caught off guard immediately coughed from the white smoke.
Thankfully, the white smoke was non-toxic. Otherwise, everyone present would have died.
When the white smoke dissipated, the men from An Luo Sect were gone.
Chu Yun wanted to lead his men to chase after them, but was stopped by Chu Sihan.
“Let’s not press an enemy at bay. Let’s continue our journey.”
“Yes!”
After accepting his orders, Chu Yun instructed everyone to continue traveling.
Three days later, at Lin Jiang Mansion.
The city was bustling with life, and there was an endless stream of business visitors. There was no lack of martial artists amongst them.
The hawkers shouted and the customers laughed. It was a peaceful and prosperous scene.
After entering the city, Chu Yun and his men heaved a sigh of relief. They felt like they had returned to their own territory.
Ever since Lu Sheng entered the city, she became exceptionally active.
She would ask about this and that. Occasionally, she would even fork out money to buy a few items that she liked.
Everyone in the team, with the exception of Chu Sihan, admired her immensely.
They were obviously on the same journey and had roughly the same break time. Sometimes, Lu Sheng would even wake up earlier than them.
Yet, she was so energetic but they were like frosted eggplants.
A bunch of men could not even live up to a girl. If news of this were to spread, how embarrassing would that be?
However, the thought of Lu Sheng as an unusual beauty made them feel that there was nothing to be embarrassed about.
