Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Tan Xiangdie sat down on the opposite side, silently watching the disguised guests.

He had no intention of letting them go.

In any case, how could he possibly let them walk free when spies had come to Qiangjinjiu Bar to collect intelligence! They must be caught and tortured, interrogated until they reveal which organization or gang they worked for, and who had sent them!

Qi Qingyao had been an undercover agent in her previous life and she saw through the man in vicious thoughts at a glance.

He definitely would not let them go, it seemed that... it was going to be another tough battle!

However, Qi Qingyao intended to vent before fighting.

She got up, her expression darkening and she suddenly became furious.

She pointed at the nose of the man in red and said, “Damn, I just snuck in here to eat since that first restaurant fell apart but this second one is run by brigands! I really got the sh*ttiest luck today!

“Who are you trying to intimidate by looking so monstrous and being dressed in red! Or are you planning to hang yourself at night and turn into a scary malevolent spirit?” (T/N: The is a belief that people become different kinds of ghosts depending on how they die)

Tan Xiangdie had never been slandered like this by anyone before and, at this moment, he was instantly stunned. He did not react at all. A few of the maids were also rooted to their spots, dumbfounded.

“How foolish are you? What purpose do you think others have for coming to this stupid shop of yours? What other f*cking motive could it be? If it weren’t for the name of this place being so intriguing, I wouldn’t have even thought of coming in considering the nondescript, rundown, brothel-looking bar-but-not-bar decor!

“Even the guests here are weird, they’re all pretentious pricks! I don’t think this is even a bar, it’s obviously a place where monsters gather!

“You rotten shopkeeper, you really think you’re all that! Why put on an act when you have nothing? What are you even talking about! Watch out that I don’t get someone to burn your bar to the ground!”

...

Having been stupefied for the entire length of the scolding, Tan Xiangdie returned to his senses after quite a while. He rubbed his temples and looked at the ordinary-looking little lady with exceptional cursing skills in front of him. This was the first time he felt acclaim for something.

“Cough, cough. Lady, there’s no need to be this angry now, is there?”

Qi Qingyao had schooled her expression. The calmness on her face no longer revealed traces of the fuming anger from just a second ago. It was as if the person who had been cursing just now was not someone else. However, the next words she spat out were still caustic, “What I hate the most in my entire life is people who put on an act in front of me!”

Tan Xiangdie glanced at the ordinary-looking youth beside her and waved his hand. “Come, escort these two distinguished guests out.”

Qi Qingyao snorted and brought Si Jin along and walked toward the door.

She was secretly feeling a little happy.

Their cover had not been broken!

When they got to the door, a maid said awkwardly, “Payment for the meal…”

“Why do I need to pay for the meal?” Qi Qingyao turned her head and stared at the maid asking for money. “It’s on your boss!”

The maid, “...”

She hurriedly turned to look at the man in red.

Tan Xiangdie cradled his forehead helplessly and nodded.

After Qi Qingyao and Si Jin left the bar, seven individuals in black tailed them in secret.

This, of course, did not escape Si Jin’s attention. They had only taken ten or more steps when he whispered to Qi Qingyao, “Sister, we’re being followed.”

Qi Qingyao grabbed Si Jin’s arm while they continued walking calmly.

Pretending as if they had not noticed anything.

“Do you have a plan to throw them off our trail?”

“I’m probably faster than them. The spies won’t be able to catch up,” Si Jin said with much confidence in himself.

“That’ll do. We’ll disappear at the next alleyway,” said Qi Qingyao.

In any case, Si Jin was a rank-nine. From her last conversation with Jiang Yeqian, Qi Qingyao learned that there were seven grand masters in the mainland but there were not a lot of rank-nines either… not anyone could just wave their hands and send out rank-nine powerhouses. Rank-nines were not common! Lu Yan was only at rank six!

As she thought about it, those tailing them were at most rank eight!

When they reached the next alley entrance, the two walked in calmly.

When the people in black followed them in, they realized that their quarry had already disappeared...

There was nothing left.

The people in black were slightly embarrassed as they locked eyes with each other.

“We lost them!”

…

...

Tan Xiangdie had just taken a seat in the backyard and started on a bowl of tea when the black-clad individual entered through the back door. Tan Xiangdie thought they had gotten results but the leader of the black-clad group reported otherwise.

“Master, we lost them.”

Tan Xiangdie immediately spat out his tea. He looked at the black-clad group. “You’re all rank-eights, how did you lose them?” It had not even been five minutes!

The black-clad individuals, “...”

Tan Xiangdie put down the tea bowl. A maid fetched him a handkerchief and, after Tan Xiangdie wiped the tea from his fair and clear, bright and clean lower jaw, he gripped at the handkerchief and gazed at the stars in the curtain of the night. He said, “Could it be that our opponent really is a rank nine?”

The person in black said, “Thinking of it, they could very well be.”

Or else, how could they have disappeared so fast…

Tan Xiangdie pondered for a moment. Having no intention to punish them, he just waved his hand and dismissed the group.

…

...

Tan Xiangdie returned to the fourth floor and spent the entire night thinking on his own when the window was opened by someone. Jiang Yeqian hopped in and, after taking a seat, he took off his mask, shook off the dust on his body and poured himself a cup of tea before taking a sip.

As he drank, he watched Tan Xiangdie and realized that… It was a little quiet now. He did not have a woman in his arms like he normally did—this aroused his curiosity.

He asked the man what was wrong.

Tan Xiangdie touched his fair and clear lower jaw and murmured, “I had an interesting experience today.”

“?”

“There were two disguised guests, a male and a female. They were locals based on their accents. Come to think of it now, they probably did enter my shop by accident,” Tan Xiangdie said.

Jiang Yeqian replied, “What you’re saying is basically nothing.”

Tan Xiangdie smiled faintly. “You don’t understand the scene. They cursed me out, even said that my bar was a gathering place of monsters… They even said I was a pretentious prick! And even called my customers that! They accused me of dressing in red because I was trying to become a horrifying malevolent spirit at night by hanging myself…”

“...” Jiang Yeqian almost spat out his tea. He swallowed it down forcefully but coughed a few times.

Tan Xiangdie continued, “They also boasted that they planned on lighting up my bar.”

“I suddenly feel like meeting this person.” Jiang Yeqian was shocked. “They’re quite brave.”

“You don’t suspect that I might have already killed them?” asked Tan Xiangdie.

Jiang Yeqian gave a cold snort and said, “You’re so relaxed, even sounding a little intrigued when you told me about this. I think you likely have not killed them.”

“You certainly understand me.” Tan Xiangdie was incessantly agitated. “But I was surprised that I lost to them in a game of dice. I got 4 points. That young man was obviously a beginner but he got 18 points! And then they cursed me out like that so I had to let her go.”

Four points…

Jiang Yeqian could not help but raise his gaze and glance at Tan Xiangdie. He thought to himself that it was no wonder the man had no women in his arms after the way he lost today.

“Didn’t you send someone to tail them?”

“They lost them.”

“...” He suffered a loss like that and the people he sent to tail them, all undoubtedly of rank eight and above, had also lost them? Jiang Yeqian could not drink his tea.

Tan Xiangdie said very helplessly, “They’re rank-eights yet they still lost their trail.”

This verified Jiang Yeqian’s thoughts.

Jiang Yeqian rubbed his lower jaw, speculating, “It seems that the two are rank-nines.”

Tan Xiangdie pursed his lips, expression dark as he said, “Since when did rank-nines litter the streets so much that just about anyone who comes by is a rank-nine?”

Jiang Yeqian said nothing.

When Tan Xiangdie spoke again, it sounded like he was trying to save his dignity. “I think that the lady should be the daughter of some great family. Because the guard said they were very rich! They had simply pulled out a stack of bank notes from their body. It seemed that the lady could not simply go out as she pleased, so she disguised herself and ventured out, bringing along her guard. Then they accidentally walked into my shop.”

Jiang Yeqian agreed. “If they’re from Qingzhou City, it would be impossible for them to intrude in a place like that. The young ladies of Qingzhou City all know which shops have good food. It’s impossible they’d act without thinking. Having said that, it’s also impossible for the local ladies to have a rank-nine powerhouse with them. I think it’s possible she is a noble lady from neighboring countries that recently came here. She brought her family’s best powerhouses with her.”

“That makes sense.”

Jiang Yeqian’s words mitigated much of the gloom in Tan Xiangdie’s heart.

She was definitely a rich lady from another country…

As for being unable to get her to share any information, it must be because the little lady was meticulous with her thoughts and conducted herself with subtlety!

Yes.

It was definitely this!

…

...

After escaping the people tailing them, Qi Qingyao and Si Jin quietly returned to Qingyang Lake via an alternative route. Si Jin asked, “I thought Sister would want to go home directly after all the things that happened.”

“The road to success is strewn with setbacks.”

Qi Qingyao had finally gotten out of the cage, so she did not want to head back so quickly.

She had not had anything nice to eat at Qiangjinjiu Bar just now and had only drunk.

Now.

Standing by the lake with the rather cold and bitter north wind blowing onto them, she sobered up a lot.

There were many small stalls on the side of the road...

Qi Qingyao walked over. “Boss, give me two oil flatbreads!”

“Okay!”

Soon, two pieces of oil flatbread came fresh out of the stove.

Qi Qingyao grabbed them before realizing that Si Jin did not eat this. “I forgot you don’t eat this, so I’ll just have two of them!”

Si Jin took one of the flatbreads and said softly, “it’s not that I don’t eat it.” He just much preferred white rice…

Qi Qingyao was a little stunned.

She looked at the average-looking youth as he took small bites of the oil flatbread...

She smiled and suggested to Si Jin that they go sit on the stone platform and look at the lake…

They began munching on the oil flatbreads.

…

This was the second time Li Ruoxuan came to Qingzhou City in his life. He had spent the entire day receiving so many reports from multiple people that his head hurt a little.

The little lord of the Han family had also arrived just now, saying that he had some important news.

Regarding the mysterious grand master…

After he listened to him.

Li Ruoxuan contemplated for a long time. Thinking he ought to head out for a walk, he brought Zhu Shen with him as they strolled around Qingyang Lake.

The stars and the moon sparkled on the surface of Qingyang Lake during the deep winter nights.

Li Ruoxuan had heavy matters in mind. After making a few stops during his stroll, he suddenly noticed that there were actually two ordinary-looking people, a woman and a young man who were sitting down. They looked like two lovers as they ate oil flatbreads together.

The little lady’s nose was red with cold but there was a smile on her face, her mood seemingly pleasant.

Ordinary people, huh.

Ordinary people who had no troubles… living so leisurely.

Li Ruoxuan, who had always been plagued with trivial matters, felt rather envious of these ordinary people at this second...

Qi Qingyao always had a sharp intuition—she had just taken two bites of her oil flatbread when she sensed someone watching her. She thought it was one of their stalkers but from the corners of her eyes, she saw that it was a young man; he was not exactly handsome but was very clean and refined-looking. He wore full-body black and he had with him...an attendant.

An ordinary lord and his attendant…

Qi Qingyao thought for a moment before calling out the lord and attendant pair.

“Are you hungry? Do you also feel like having some midnight supper? This oil flatbread is not bad! You should buy one and try it out before the owner closes shop.”

Li Ruoxuan, “...”

The lady looked ordinary but she had a pair of shrewd eyes.

She looked like a hamster when she ate.

She sounded full of self-confidence when she spoke.

He was silent for a moment before he said to Zhu Shen, “Go buy an oil flatbread.”

Zhu Shen, “??”

‘State Preceptor, you, have you gone mad?’
