Legend of the Heavenly God
Ch. 128 ~ Spy Alliance
Moments after finishing eating the breakfast provided, Fen Lian asked Tan Hao and Lan Lihua to follow her into her study. While Liu Zey went to train according to Tan Hao's direction, and for Sui Jiu was assigned Tan Hao to follow some suspected people before.
Liu Zey actually wanted Tan Hao himself to teach him like he used to but because there was something, Tan Hao asked Liu Zey to meet Elder Shuxan and Su Kong to accompany him to practice.
On the other side of Hibei village not far from the association building, Elder Shuxan and Su Kong were being preoccupied with some wine and women. More precisely, only Su Kong enjoyed it while Elder Shuxan was nonchalant while occasionally sighing lightly watching Su Kong's behavior.
"Why grieve like that? As long as we are not with that person, I think we get this kind of comfort and calmness, he he. .." Su Kong said as he stroked the body of the girl sitting on his lap.
"Hey listen! As a swordsman, I would rather fight to the death than drink wine and play women like this, shamefully .." said Elder Shuxan to hold his abbot.
Su Kong simply laughed while still seducing the two women sitting on his lap. Both are only assigned to look for some clothes and supplies of travel, but also looking for information they can get. A fairly easy task was given by Tan Hao for both, but in fact only Elder Shuxan was serious.
Not far from where the two were, two ordinary-looking people with black headbands were silently watching the surrounding area. It was not realized by Elder Shuxan, but he managed to realize when he was tired of waiting for Su Kong's cool as if he did not think it existed.
"Eh ... Something seems wrong here?" he muttered after walking a few steps intending to get out of the three-story brothel that had a tavern on its first floor.
The first floor is filled with visitors who mostly just to enjoy the wine, although all of them are warriors. Black and white flow makes no difference in this place. They were blending in just like that, yet Elder Shuxan was quite capable of recognizing him.
Deciding to surround the not-so-large room, Elder Shuxan thought there might be a lot he knew of the irregularities he felt.
While Elder Shuxan was looking for what he could get, Tan Hao was in discussions with Fen Lian, who was in the middle of a meeting, several times also Fen Lian explained her heartache despite the black-flow alliance swordsman having retreated and moved away from Hibei village. According to him, it was like a time bomb that could at any time explode without being known from which direction the explosion took place
Tan Hao quite understood the fear that Fen Lian was experiencing, the woman who only had the cultivation level of that intermediate stage ascetic Expert. Fen Lian was also quite calm with the joining of the Illusory Goddess by her side. Although joined because of Tan Hao. But that was enough to make the power of the Hibei branch Golden Tower Association increase.
Whereas what Fen Lian did not know was that the person in front of her if she wanted to, the entire black-flow alliance army could be annihilated without a remnant. However, he did not do it because it is only in vain and will only create new grudges. For that, all he can do is minimize the occurrence of a major war that has a negative impact on ordinary citizens and their families.
"For what bother to think of this and it's like that, hng! Just take it all down before they move. After all .. their position is in the middle of the forest. There will be no innocent lives to be victims" Lan Lihua said on the sidelines of Fen Lian's explanation.
Fen Lian choked on her own breath hearing Lan Lihua's statement that looked lightly trivializing the alliance's strength. On the other hand, Tan Hao simply cleared his throat to tell Lan Lihua to just quietly listen.
"Are you not sane? How can you say slaughter all? Even if all the forces in this hibei village were gathered together, they would not be able to fight it, let alone slaughter them! Crazy ass.." Fen Lian's sergeant is sharp. He could not believe that the woman's words were running out of words.
"It only takes two! Emm ... Or maybe one person is enough to destroy them all! Why complicate yourself if something is easy. You're just a fool, scared of boring stuff like this!" added Lan Lihua ignited with Fen Lian's words.
Lan Lihua was speechless hearing Tan Hao's words that contained high seriousness. His tone showed he was not playing around with his attitude, making Lan Lihua soften and stand up from her seat.
"All right! I better give comfort to my body that has been neglected long enough. Brother Hao Hao remembered! My advice is easier than having to play hide and seek like this, already yes ... I'm leaving," Lan Lihua said as she walked away leaving Tan Hao and Fen Lian together.
Tan Hao smiled faintly after Lan Lihua walked out without closing the door.
"Hehe ignore his words! He's just exhausted after last night fighting,"
Not long after, Manager Xinxin came over and directly walked into the room. It made Tan Hao a little surprised, but he only had a flat expression as if he paid no heed to it.
"Miss Fen! All preparations are done. Today we can also close the association of trade and barter. However, there is a little problem happening ... Some warriors came and settled in taverns to brothels! Their faces were unfamiliar, I guess they were men from outside this region," Manager Xinxin explained after greeting, his facial features showing no panic when giving a report. That matter was realized by Tan Hao and only made him smile lightly.
"All right! I'm memgerti. Thank you Manager Xin, you can come back ..." said Fen Lian as she gestured with her hand.
Before moving from his place, Manager Xinxin glanced at Tan Hao, a glance that contained hatred. And that made Tan Hao astonished but also he was relaxed as if he did not realize what Manager Xinxin was doing.
"Does it seem like my fear is coming true? What exactly is their purpose?" muttered Fen Lian while massaging her forehead.
"Miss Fen! I think it's best that from now on you be careful of the woman who just came here. I saw something was wrong with him. Like he has another trait that is playing behind him," Tan Hao said giving a warning along with him releasing the Aura of God intending to protect the room from being heard by others.
"You mean Young Master, Manager Xinxin? How come?" sahut Fen Lian is curious.
"This place is not only unsafe. But there are also a lot of spies in their posts! I guess, their goal is to dredge all the treasures and resources that exist in this entire village. Including the ones in the storage warehouse."
"No way! No one knows where and how to get in except us and Manager Xin,"
"It won't be long before you know for yourself! To be sure, there are four people out there eavesdropping on us. And all of them are Miss Fen's confidants. Better start now be careful."
"Manager Xin meant Young Master Tan Hao? Where possible! He's been taking care of this place for almost 20 years, so where could it be? Then three others?"
