Chapter 2078: Targetted

Although it was not very obvious, Sima You Yue still managed to notice, “What’s wrong? Did you see something?”

“Nothing.” Wu Lingyu did not plan to tell her. She did not need to know about these small matters.

But Sima You Yue knew him too well. Once he said it this way, she understood immediately. However, the two thought the same way, it was only a small matter.

Old Man Li did not have the chemistry that they had. He saw that Sima You Yue looked distracted, and asked, “We have been sitting here for an hour, but we have yet to hear any useful information. Should we try going to a different tea house?”

Sima You Yue shook her head, “No need.”

When she was in Happiness City, she realised that the people here did not like to drink tea. To put it more accurately, those who did not form their physical body could not drink tea. And those who had formed their physical body were not keen on drinking tea, perhaps due to health reasons. Hence, there were very few tea houses. If not because this was Hua Wu Xiang’s base camp, there would not even have been this number of them.

That was why she was not able to obtain the information that she needed from these few tea houses. Although she did feel disappointed, she was not surprised.

Wu Xiang City had been managed well, perhaps it was because this was their biggest base camp, but those people have been forbidden from speaking about his matters.

“Then what about the information that we wanted?” Old Man Li asked, worried.

He was not worried about Sima You Yue missing out on the trials. He was only worried that Sima You Yue might not be going to that place, and so she would not be employing him anymore.

She had previously promised to cover a year of his fees. If this continued, he would be able to save a lot of money.

“This method is not feasible. We need to think of other methods. Anyway, we still have three days before the Tempest Season arrives. We have been here for almost half a month. We should be able to get our information somehow. We have already come out for a day, so we should go back and rest.”

They returned to the inn, and in order to avoid drawing attention, they only asked for two rooms. Once Sima You Yue returned to her own room, she asked, “Are they from the City Lord’s Manor or are they Hua Wu Xiang’s men?”

“I couldn’t tell. But people have been watching us since we entered the city.” Wu Lingyu said, “It just seems that the numbers have increased today.”

“Is it because they can’t wait to attack?” Sima You Yue frowned, this was really not the time.

The Tempest Season appeared to be coming very soon. If they left the city now, no matter where they went, they would not be able to reach it within two days. They have never experienced the Tempest Season before, so they did not know how strong it would be. However, thinking about the constant stream of people that were coming into the city, they knew that it must not be easy to survive it. If there was no need, they did not want to experience it.

However, there were not many people supervising them the past two day. Now that the numbers had increased, did it represent the Commander’s attitude?

“It is not clear to say, we’ll have to see.” Wu Lingyu was also unsure, “Hua Wu Xiang should already know about what happened in Happiness City. Although they have been spying on us, they have yet to make a move. This means that they’re not too sure what they want to do either.”

“Mm, if they really made a move, there is also nothing to worry about. At most, we can just go into the little realm to hide for a while.”

“Mm. Tomorrow, I will go to the Commander’s Manor and the City Lord’s Manor to take a look.”

Since they could not obtain any information from the tea houses, they had to think of other methods.

“Looks like we can only do it this way for now.”

On the second day, they left Old Man Li in the inn, and the two of them departed. The people that were spying on them immediately followed them. However, they had only followed for a while before they were found out and they lost track of the two of them.

The two people who were following them looked everywhere. When they were certain that they had indeed lost them, they went back with sullen faces. They did not think that they would lose them so quickly, and they were afraid of what was waiting for them when they returned.

When Bai Mei Gui heard that they lost them, he was silent for a second. The guard beside him drew his knife and split the two to ashes.

“Useless trash!” Bai Mei Gui’s expression was terrible, and even killing the two of them did not relieve him of his anger.

“Envoy Bai, do we need to deploy the others?” The Steward of the City Lord’s Manor asked.

“Even if we were to deploy others, they would not be able to find them.” Bai Mei Gui was not interested in Sima You Yue’s whereabouts. What angered him was that these people were found out so easily. Furthermore, Sima You Yue managed to shake off his people. This was a red flag, it was like slapping him across his face.

“Envoy Bai, it looks like they have already found out about us, shall we strike first?”

Bai Mei Gui did not make a decision immediately. Instead, he asked, “Has there been any signs of activity in the Commander’s Manor?”

“Their people had also been discovered. If they hadn’t gotten in the way and sent people to watch them, they wouldn’t have…”

“The Commander’s people…” Bai Mei Gui’s gaze was cold. It seemed that there had been a long-standing resentment against the people in the Commander’s Manor. “When is the City Lord coming out of seclusion?”

“Judging from the activity in the training room, it should be within the next few days. It is estimated that it should not exceed half a month.” The Steward replied.

“The Tempest Season is arriving soon, levelling up at this timing isn’t a good thing.”

“My City Lord also understands this, which is why he invited Envoy Bai to come and help.”

Thinking about the City Lord who was about to advance in rank, Bai Mei Gui suppressed the anger he was feeling, “Continue to deploy people to follow Sima You Yue, keep your distance.”

The steward and guard both understood. He was not planning to touch Sima You Yue for the time being.”

This was really not a good time, but from now till the Tempest Season ended, the city would only allow people to enter and not leave. For the time being, she could only remain in the city. After the City Lord advanced, they would have all the time and energy to deal with them.

“Envoy Bai, over at the Commander’s Manor…” The Steward meant something when he mentioned the Commander’s Manor.

They already knew about Sima You Yue’s ability. Although they did not pay much attention to it, if they were to take them down in the city, there was still a certain level of difficulty. The main problem was it would cause a huge commotion, and it may affect the City Lord’s advancement.

Hence, it was not only them who could not make any move for now, even the Commander’s Manor were unable to act.

However, the City Lord’s Manor and the Commander’s Manor had not been on good terms recently. Even if they went to beg them at this moment, they may not listen to them either.

Bai Mei Gui knew about the resentment between the two sides, but he also understood the steward’s worries. He remained silent for a while, saying, “Constrain the people in the City Lord’s Manor. I will go talk to the people in the Commander’s Manor.”

“Thank You, Envoy Bai.” The Steward bowed to him, grateful.

As long as he made a move, there would be no problems there.

“Now that we’ve mentioned this, why do you have grudges with one another?”

The Steward hesitated for a while and said, “Actually, it has something to do with the Talent Trials that are currently ongoing.”

“Why would you be involved in this? The Talent Trials are carried out at the Great Bridge, not here, so why would you guys get tangled up because of this?”

So it was at Great Bridge…

The two who were secretly listening to this piece of news laughed silently.
