~5 min read 918 words

"You!"

Chu Renjie couldn’t hold back anymore, "Yin Tian! What do you mean by this? Would my father even deceive you?"

Before Yin Tian could speak, Chu Guanhao gently smiled and waved his hand, "It’s alright, one cannot be too careful with others. It’s quite normal for this young brother Yin Tian to be so cautious."

Yin Tian lowered his head to look inside the brocade box, only to see a withered grass lying quietly inside.

With just one glance, Yin Tian affirmed that this grass was the Qingming Grass he needed.

After closing the brocade box again, Yin Tian lifted his head, looked towards Chu Guanhao, and said, "Thank you."

Chu Guanhao cheerfully watched Yin Tian, softly speaking, "If there’s anything you need in the future, come to the Chu Family, we will surely help if we can."

Yin Tian remained noncommittal to Chu Guanhao’s words, simply carrying the brocade box and turning to walk outside the Chu Family.

As for the people from True Martial Hall, they all followed behind Yin Tian, leaving together.

Chu Guanhao didn’t mind Yin Tian’s rudeness and just stood there, watching as Yin Tian and his party departed.

It wasn’t until Yin Tian and his group had left that Chu Renjie finally couldn’t hold back.

He stepped forward, standing beside Chu Guanhao, "Dad, why did you let him leave so easily?"

"You know how important that woman is to me. With the strength of our Chu Family, are we really afraid of True Martial Hall and Yin Tian?"

"There are plenty of women with yin energy in this world; why care about that one?"

Chu Guanhao issued a cold laugh, "It’s just that the Chu Family is at a critical period right now, and it’s not appropriate to stir up trouble. It’s just a grass, isn’t it? Let him have it."

Chu Renjie still wanted to say something, but Chu Guanhao had already turned on his heel, walking away with his hands clasped behind his back.

Elsewhere.

Yin Tian and his group had already left the Chu Family.

Seeing the dozen or so people following behind, Yin Tian remained silent and drove slowly forward.

Through the rearview mirror, Yin Tian could see that those people were still leisurely following behind.

After driving a long distance, Yin Tian finally stopped the car, and he got out from the vehicle.

The dozen people also arrived in front of Yin Tian, and they kneeled on one knee, "We greet the master."

Yin Tian waved his hand, "Rise, there’s no need for that."

He looked towards the man, "I thought you were abroad, I didn’t expect you to be right here in Central City."

Upon hearing this, the man kneeled again, "Subordinate did not inform the master of this matter, please forgive me, master!"

Seeing this, Yin Tian, somewhat helplessly, pulled the man back to his feet, "You don’t have to kneel at every turn."

"But what’s the deal with True Martial Hall anyway?"

"Actually, all of us from Shadow Hall have legitimate professions in society, to avoid being discovered."

The man slowly began explaining to Yin Tian, "True Martial Hall is the force I’ve cultivated in Central City; on one hand, it can train my people, and on the other hand, it can serve as a cover."

"When you called earlier, I planned to bring True Martial Hall directly, but then I thought that doing so would expose them. And you, master, might have use for them in the future, so I urgently gathered manpower from other places instead."

"As for today, when I received the news that you were going to the Chu Family alone, I worried something might happen to you, so I brought people over, hoping to be of assistance to you."

"Well done."

Yin Tian patted the man’s shoulder, very pleased.

He liked subordinates who were clever, who had their own thoughts, rather than those who only followed orders blindly.

As long as they were loyal enough, such people were clearly more handy to use.

"What should I call you?"

Yin Tian looked at the man before him, inquiring.

"Reporting to the master, you may address your subordinate as Number Two."

"Alright."

Yin Tian nodded, "You may go back. If you continue to follow me, it might arouse suspicion."

"Yes."

Number Two also nodded, "Then, your subordinate will take his leave first. If there is a need in the future, the master can just call."

"Hmm."

Yin Tian responded with a soft hum, a slight smile on his face.

Seeing this, Number Two didn’t linger any longer and immediately led his people away into the distance.

Meanwhile, Yin Tian went back into his car and drove towards Yin Mansion.

Before long, Yin Tian had driven back to Yin Mansion.

Just as he got out of the car, he heard crying from within the courtyard.

Yin Tian’s brows furrowed as he strode into Yin Mansion.

He saw in the front courtyard, Su Qinwei and a few other girls gathered together.

In their midst were the siblings Zhen Songwen and Zhen Huayi.

At this moment, Zhen Huayi was holding Zhen Songwen and sobbing uncontrollably.

Yin Tian walked forward with a heavy expression, "What happened?"

Hearing Yin Tian’s voice, Zhen Huayi, as though she had found a lifeline, fumbled her way to Yin Tian, her hands tightly grasping the hem of Yin Tian’s trousers, staring with her lifeless eyes ’at’ Yin Tian.

"Yin Tian, my eyes are beyond saving!"

"Please, save my brother!"
