Chapter 663: Imperial City!_1

Early the next morning.

Yin Tian got out of bed, yawning as he made his way to the front yard.

The next moment, a chill flashed in Yin Tian’s eyes.

On his usual resting wicker chair, there was, startlingly, a flying dagger!

He was very familiar with that dagger—it was the standard issue from Shadow Hall!

Besides the dagger, there was nothing else.

"Heh, trying to intimidate me?"

Yin Tian let out a cold laugh, stepped forward, and picked up the dagger.

After checking that the dagger was not poisoned, he put it away, intending to return it to its owner one day.

Just then, footsteps could be heard from outside the door.

Yin Tian turned his head and saw Lin Yunzhi approaching with a smile on his face.

On his face, there was no sign of the humiliation he had suffered in the western part of Central City; it was as if nothing had happened.

"Yin Tian, long time no see. You’ve really become a celebrity now."

Lin Yunzhi looked at Yin Tian with a smile and said, "There are quite a few people in Central City interested in you. What do you think would happen if I were to leak your information?"

"You’re very welcome to try."

Yin Tian glanced at Lin Yunzhi and spoke slowly.

As if Lin Yunzhi hadn’t noticed the tone of Yin Tian’s voice, he continued to smile brightly, "Alright, no more jokes. I’ve come here because there’s something serious I need to discuss with you."

"You? Something serious?"

Yin Tian let out a snicker.

A flicker of annoyance crossed Lin Yunzhi’s face, but it quickly disappeared.

He looked at Yin Tian and slowly took out an invitation from his pocket, "Someone important asked me to give this to you. If you choose not to attend, the consequences are on you."

Someone important?

Yin Tian’s eyebrows slightly knitted together.

Lin Yunzhi was the Master of the Lin Family from Central City, a first-class family.

And the Lin Family, as a family that had stood in Central City for a hundred years, even among the first-class families, was at the very top of the hierarchy.

Yet, Lin Yunzhi referred to the person who sent the invitation as someone important!

How important could that person be?

Seeing that Yin Tian had no intention of taking the invitation, Lin Yunzhi threw it on the stone table and turned to leave.

"Attend or not, it’s up to you. However, I’d advise you to think it over carefully; otherwise, you might not even know how you die in the future."

Before the echo of his words faded, Lin Yunzhi had already walked out of Yin Mansion.

After a while, Yin Tian reached out, picked up the invitation, and looked at it.

Inside the invitation was just a simple line of text.

It was an invitation from someone in Imperial City for Yin Tian to attend a council.

"Imperial City?"

Yin Tian looked surprised.

He had never imagined that besides the Outer City, Inner City, and Central City, there was also an Imperial City in this so-called Imperial Capital!

What exactly was Imperial City about?

Just then, Zhen Songwen also got up, ready to go outside for training. Seeing Yin Tian, he greeted him cheerfully, "Good morning, brother-in-law."

"Big brother-in-law, come here a moment."

Yin Tian gestured to Zhen Songwen.

Zhen Songwen walked over with a puzzled expression.

"Do you know where Imperial City is?"

"Imperial City?"

After pondering for a moment, Zhen Songwen spoke with bewilderment, "Is there an Imperial City in the Imperial Capital?"

Seeing this, Yin Tian chose not to say more.

Seeing Yin Tian’s silence, Zhen Songwen continued on his way out.

A moment later, Yin Tian took out his phone and called Li Chang, the person in charge of Know-It-All.

"Do you know about Imperial City?"

Yin Tian asked point-blank.

"It is the core of power in Huaxia. There are six major families in Imperial City, and the heads of these families are known as the Six Kings of the Imperial City. They can easily determine life and death for anyone in a province with just a word."

"It’s just that because Imperial City is linked to great secrets, information about it has always been sealed. Only the heads and heirs of first-class families have a chance to know about it."

Li Chang answered respectfully.

"Is there really such a place inside Central City?"

Yin Tian asked, clearly surprised.

He had thought that in Central City, first-class families were already at the pinnacle of power. Yet, above the first-class families, there were the Six Kings of the Imperial City!

Yin Tian blinked, another question arising in his mind, "Besides Imperial City, is there anything else?"

"I’m not too sure about that..."

Li Chang spoke, also uncertain, "But the previous boss, when he led us, strictly forbade any investigation into the core of Huaxia. He said it was for our own good and didn’t want to bring disaster upon us."

"Disaster..."

Yin Tian frowned.

What kind of power could instill fear even in his master’s wife?

"Alright, I understand."

Yin Tian nodded and then hung up the phone.

He sat on the recliner, fiddling with the invitation, "Imperial City... quite interesting."

"Looks like I really will have to check it out."

Yin Tian cracked a smile and then put the invitation into his pocket, "Lin Yunzhi, your desire to harm me indeed never dies!"

He had now seen through Lin Yunzhi’s intentions.

Lin Yunzhi had purposely said so much with the hope of provoking his pride.

So he would, out of spite, not attend the council, and then be rejected by Imperial City!
