Chapter 580

~4 min read 674 words

The group of three, each harboring different moods, set out from the Qin Guo and spent a long time before finally arriving in the land of the State of Qi.

Heaven did not favor them.

When they arrived in the State of Qi, it happened to be the rainy season.

A fine drizzle shrouded Sanghai City, and because of the rain, there were few pedestrians on the streets.

"Are we going directly to the Little Sage Manor?"

Seeing Jing Ni, wearing a straw raincoat, was driving the carriage in the front and asked Su Xuan, who was inside the carriage behind her.

This scene looked somewhat strange.

There were two grown men sitting in the carriage, yet they let a woman, Seeing Jing Ni, drive it.

But there was no help for it; if they didn't let Seeing Jing Ni drive, it was impossible for Su Xuan to do it himself.

His status dictated that he could not do such a thing.

As for Han Fei?

Better forget it; he had no strength to truss a chicken, and letting him get rained on outside would likely lead to him catching a cold.

Therefore, the task of driving the carriage fell to Seeing Jing Ni. Fortunately, although Seeing Jing Ni appeared beautiful, she was not a weak person. She was powerful, and when she wandered the world with her daughter years ago, she had suffered every hardship.

Driving a carriage was, for her, a relaxing task.

Inside the carriage, Su Xuan pondered for a moment before naming a destination: "First go to the foot of the Little Sage Manor mountain. There should be an inn there called 'Youjian Inn'!"

"Youjian Inn? What a strange name! I wonder what is special about this inn."

Han Fei, sitting beside Su Xuan, asked with curiosity upon hearing Su Xuan's words.

Su Xuan did not hide it. "This is a stronghold of the Mohist School in Sanghai City!"

"So that's how it is!"

Han Fei's eyes flickered.

The Mohist School had defected to the Qin Guo several years ago. After receiving the Mohist School's help, the Qin Guo's agriculture, handicraft manufacturing, and other levels had all advanced by leaps and bounds.

The paper that had earlier circulated throughout the world was the handiwork of the Mohist School.

He hadn't expected that the Mohist School would actually have a stronghold in Sanghai City.

Moreover, it was located exactly at the foot of the Confucian holy land; no one would believe it wasn't done deliberately.

"The Mohist School is the Qin Guo's eyes and ears. Is hiding the stronghold near the Little Sage Manor to monitor the Confucian school?"

Han Fei speculated in his heart.

Su Xuan did not go directly to the Little Sage Manor but went to the Mohist stronghold first; he must be doing this to obtain intelligence from here. Only by obtaining enough intelligence could he move against the Confucian school.

The more Han Fei thought about it, the more he felt he was one step closer to the truth.

Seeing Jing Ni drove the carriage toward the direction of Youjian Inn. Although she didn't know where Youjian Inn was, she knew the location of the Little Sage Manor. According to Su Xuan, Youjian Inn was at the foot of the Little Sage Manor mountain; one only needed to head toward the Little Sage Manor to find it easily.

And that was indeed the case.

Soon, they arrived in front of Youjian Inn.

The inn did not seem to have existed for long; at least, when Han Fei was studying at the Little Sage Manor, there was no such inn here, which was why he was curious when he heard the unique name.

As the carriage stopped at the entrance of Youjian Inn, the shopkeeper, Pao Ding, discovered them immediately.

It was not mealtime, so there were no guests in the inn.

The carriage stopping here specifically meant the visitors clearly had another purpose. **Chapter 582: The Life and Death of the Confucian School Lies with Themselves! **
