Xun Xian discovered a problem. She left the Defense Department in a daze, stood on the street, looking up at the sky. The weather that seemed so good today suddenly felt bad; these monotonous sunny days were utterly meaningless. "If this incident occurred in Xufu Town, I wouldn’t need to act. The Commerce Association would definitely send someone to find Yuchi." "Not just the Commerce Association; the people from the Celestial Capital Department would show up too, as Yuchi seems to have a good relationship with Chen Guangsheng." "So he definitely won’t be in any danger." "But this is Jiangzhou City. They say the powerful dragon can’t suppress the local snake, but here, there aren’t even any local snakes." "It should be that the local snakes don’t have the qualifications to exploit powerful dragons." "This results in Yuchi disappearing without anyone caring." Xun Xian saw it clearly. Zhou Xingcai definitely wouldn’t help Yuchi. That’s certain. People casually say a few things, but in such crucial moments, even one’s own father wouldn’t help. This clearly shows just how unreliable human relationships can be. The key still lies in his own strength, Yuchi’s strength. But Yuchi himself is just a small salted fish. He’s quite skilled at courting women but lacks self-defense abilities. "Sigh, thinking back now, he must have been very impulsive yesterday." "I don’t know what he was thinking, why didn’t he let me go over to protect him?" "I’m not boasting about myself." "If I had gone to the Zhou Family, such a thing definitely wouldn’t have happened." "Yuchi could’ve easily had lunch with others at the Drunken Joy Tavern, without worrying me." "And the most alarming thing is, the Zhou Family lost a maid named Feng Dongran." "That Zhou Xingcai even asked me to find Feng Dongran, saying she was very good to her, and they had a harmonious relationship." "I didn’t investigate the matter, and instead added a new commission to myself, muddled and confused." Then, frowned and looked at the Qingzhu beside her. This girl has such a good temperament, so calm that it’s outrageous. As if she, Qingzhu, is not Yuchi’s woman, but Xun Xian is instead. Thinking thus, Yuchi is still quite a miserable person. No one can help at crucial times; the best person to help is, ironically, someone like me, an outsider. Xun Xian still feels she shouldn’t give up , she should inquire about the situation outside the Zhou Family. Even if there are many people coming and going, it’s unlikely many would have clues. But you never know unless you try. "Qingzhu, let’s go back around the Zhou area and check." "And then I will secretly observe the Zhou Family at night." "Perhaps they also know where Yuchi went after all." "Don’t worry, I will try my best to ensure Yuchi’s safety. Honestly, if he dies, there’s nothing I can do." "Jiangzhou City is quite good at investigating ordinary people’s disappearance, but for such a big figure like Yuchi, who is also a President." "It is extremely difficult to handle." "They don’t want to take a stand in front of the Yuchi Commerce Association, resulting in a misunderstanding." Xun Xian didn’t hide anything, she shared everything she’d just discussed with her father. She even bluntly criticized her dad for being useless when it counts. Usually, when there’s nothing happening, he acts like a gentleman. Really feels like the genuine daughter’s sentiment is involved. Qingzhu genuinely felt the goodwill from Xun Xian this time. Though Xun Xian acts carefree, blurting things out often, her heart is still kind. Slightly nodding, she warmly grasped her hands, "Thank you, Miss Xun, let me know if you want to eat anything." "How could I impose? I’m not looking for my keeper." Xun Xian blushed, "This is my duty." Qingzhu saw through her transparently, she remarked, "Don’t worry, it just makes you more genuine." "...Thank you." Xun Xian smiled bitterly, "Let’s go!" Emotions can’t be explained by doing good deeds, can one simply act without reason? Is there such a logic? Far away, an artificial bird descended from the sky, fell swiftly to an observatory. A man in white caught the artificial bird, his fingers infused with Spiritual Qi, verifying successfully, causing the bird’s belly to open. Is it fingerprint unlock? After its belly opened, a paper scroll emerged from the bird, the man in white took it without daring to check it thoroughly. Immediately proceeded towards the grand inner chamber of the observatory. The grand observatory stood arrogantly like a behemoth among mountains. Silver snakes dancing on mountains, wax elephants leading the way, challenging the heavens. The sound of the bird piercing the sky arrived late, its booming sound echoing on the Nine Heavens, startling mountain beasts. A ten-foot-tall wooden door was pushed open, its height an enigma, then closed again. Half an hour later, several unfamiliar men and women in white came out from the door. They spoke casually as they walked. "This is the news from Jiangzhou City’s informant; the Xufu Town United Commerce Association’s President arrived at Jiangzhou City." "United Commerce Association? What is this? I’ve never heard of it before." "Seems like a different mode?" "I don’t know, but according to the informant’s recent probing, it seems beneficial to the government." "Beneficial to the government? Really? Aren’t they close to sects?" "Yes, surely there are sects standing behind these forces." "How does this concern us?" "You don’t understand?" "This is an opportunity; Celestial Eyes intend to use them covertly to observe Jiangzhou City’s dynamics." "Celestial Eyes? Even the Celestial Eyes are concerned!" "Yes, Senior Sister might go out for this, seems like planning to let the President cooperate with our investigation." "Wow, now that you mention it, things suddenly became serious." "Certainly. According to my guess, our Celestial Capital Department wants a secret meeting, using him as bait." Yuchi, "After all this, isn’t it just an undercover agent? I’m familiar with this, three years then another three." As for Celestial Eyes, Celestial Eyes is the Celestial Capital Department’s designation. Defense Department: constable, Head Constable, patrol, Golden Patrol, Iron Face, Brocade Clothes. Celestial Capital Department: Crown Master, Duke, Great Heaven, Celestial Eyes, Queen. Celestial Eyes correspond to Iron Face, a formidable existence. Catching Celestial Eyes’ attention equals being noticed by high-ranking figures of the Celestial Capital Department. Meanwhile, elsewhere. In a secluded chamber, an elderly man in white wearing a Black Armor Mask sat quietly on a mat. Clearly visible, his black and white hair harbored Thunder Qi. This elder is the Celestial Eyes in people’s words; his real name is genuinely unknown. The observatory, privately established by the Celestial Capital Department, housed the department’s disciples. They employed the sect’s management systems but excelled unlike any sect. This type of observatory had several bases. The key purpose was dispatching Celestial Capital Department personnel to other large cities. It’s not a secret, yet few are privy to it. In Xufu Town, Yuchi’s Uncle Chen Guangsheng actually originated from this observatory. He simply doesn’t mention it. In the quiet chamber, a woman with a White Fox Mask entered, her figure almost perfect. If Yuchi saw, he would certainly exclaim at her monstrous figure. Hair cascading at the sides of the mask, her face hidden, yet her beauty was palpable. Hands clasped together, hoping she’s not a mere back-view killer... "You must head to Jiangzhou City at once, meet with Xufu Town United Commerce Association’s President Yuchi." "Plans thereafter, letters are prepared." A letter drifted in front of her. She nodded, took it, left without a word. Compared to Yuchi clumsily controlling his sword, a meteor streaked across the sky, she silently approached Jiangzhou City. Probably akin to a Duke’s status!
