Chapter 168: Wang Ye and the Others' Analysis! Going to Baiyun Guan

Zhuge Qing frowned slightly, then nodded.

"So, just finish the task and leave; you don't need to overthink it. I actually still have something I need your help with."

"Alright!"

Zhuge Qing did not refuse.

However, he was thinking about another matter now.

Whether or not to report this incident.

Previously, his impression of Ma Xianhong had been quite good.

As for Ma Xianhong's philosophy, while he did not entirely agree with it, he did not dislike it either; he just felt it was somewhat whimsical.

But the man was truly generous; upon their first meeting, he gave away an Eight Extraordinary Techniques just like that.

Yet, having contact with the Quansei, it seemed there were some unknown dealings.

This was somewhat...

Zhuge Qing still had some sense of the situation.

People from the Quansei were like rats crossing the street in the Outsider world.

Getting involved with them was something the Company generally did not allow.

Being involved in this was not a good thing.

"Alright, I'll arrange for you to stay first. We can talk about anything else later. I'll write another one for you."

Saying this, Ma Xianhong signaled for someone to take Zhuge Qing to his lodging, then waved his hand and left.

Watching Ma Xianhong's back as he walked away, Zhuge Qing withdrew his gaze.

"Sorry for the trouble!"

Zhuge Qing looked at the honest-looking young man leading the way.

"No trouble at all, no trouble. The Village Chief gave the order, I don't mind the trouble."

"What kind of person is Village Chief Ma?"

Zhuge Qing asked.

"A good person!"

The honest-looking young man thought for a moment, then gave an answer.

"Anything else?"

Zhuge Qing asked again.

Then, the honest-looking young man began to scratch his head.

Seeing this, Zhuge Qing did not ask further.

After the honest-looking young man left once the folk house was arranged, Zhuge Qing walked around the room, took out his phone, stared at it, and then put it away.

He decided to scout the situation here first before doing anything else.

……

Jingcheng, on Wang Ye's side.

Although the Wang Family was currently shrinking its influence with all its might, trouble like the Art Sect still arrived as scheduled.

Wang Ye himself also felt it was troublesome, and then he thought of that shameless guy on Longhu Mountain.

Besides, this kind of matter could be considered within the Company's scope of business.

And after Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao arrived, they encountered trouble while investigating the person behind the scenes.

Because Ma Xianhong had invited him in advance, Zhuge Qing did not come to Jingcheng.

Naturally, there was no progress with the Inner Scene inquiry.

Zhou Sheng saw all of this, and disguised as someone else, he taught Wang Ye a lesson.

"What do we do now?"

Zhang Chulan asked Feng Baobao beside him, then felt he was being a bit of an idiot, and subsequently turned his gaze toward Wang Ye.

Wang Ye looked a bit pale.

"The three of us enter the Inner Scene together..."

"No!"

Zhang Chulan waved his hand immediately.

Are you kidding? The secrets Feng Baobao carried were too great.

If Wang Ye discovered them, they couldn't just silence him, could they?

Seeing Zhang Chulan so resolute, Wang Ye scratched his head. He hesitated for a long while, but still frowned, unable to think of a solution.

"Go ask that person!"

Feng Baobao finished the apple in her hand, raised her arm, and accurately threw it into a trash can over ten meters away, then scratched her head and looked at Wang Ye.

"Ah? Who?"

Wang Ye was a bit confused.

"Just that person!" Feng Baobao said with a mysterious expression.

Zhang Chulan slapped his forehead.

"The one at Baiyun Guan!"

Zhang Chulan provided the answer.

Feng Baobao had been by Xu San and Xu Si's side, and both recently, as well as back on Longhu Mountain, whenever they mentioned Lin Xuan of Baiyun Guan, they always used "that person" as a substitute, rarely calling him by his name directly.

This was an instinctive way of addressing him.

And so, Feng Baobao followed suit.

"Huh?"

Wang Ye looked blank.

"Huh what? If that person speaks up, won't this matter be easily resolved?"

Zhang Chulan also felt that Feng Baobao's suggestion was worth considering; after all, Baiyun Guan was right on the edge of Jingcheng, and if it were about the situation in Jingcheng, Baiyun Guan would certainly be crystal clear about it.

Besides, when that person speaks, it carries weight.

"But why would they help me?"

Wang Ye frowned.

"That depends on your ability, Young Master Wang. Why don't you try using your 'money power'?"

Zhang Chulan stroked his chin and offered a suggestion.

Wang Ye rolled his eyes directly.

Money power is only effective on you guys, okay?

"Then your old man should have connections with Baiyun Guan, why don't you ask your old man to go and inquire?"

"No, I don't want my family to know about this matter."

Wang Ye shook his head.

"This won't work, that won't work!"

Zhang Chulan shook his head, looking speechless.

"True, then should I go and try?"

Hearing this, Wang Ye also felt that now was not the time to be conflicted.

Meanwhile, Zhou Sheng, hidden in the shadows, expressionlessly wiped the apple crumbs off his forehead, glanced at Feng Baobao, and then looked toward Wang Ye.

It seems Old Man Fang is breaking through recently!

Zhou Sheng was actually quite curious as well.

He knew the matters on Longhu Mountain quite clearly, so he was very curious.

Now that he heard the three of them discussing it, he naturally wanted to go and see the situation.

"You guys come with me!"

Wang Ye looked at Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao.

"Huh? We don't really need to, right? There's no use for us there, Daoist Wang. How about we just wait, and if it doesn't work, we'll think of another way."

Zhang Chulan was somewhat resistant.

"You brought it up, so of course you have to go, otherwise I might report you guys."

Wang Ye glared.

"Sister Bao'er?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan turned to look at Feng Baobao.

"Huh?"

Feng Baobao looked somewhat dazed.

"What happens if we get reported here?"

"They deduct money!"

Feng Baobao gave the answer directly.

"If the things you deliver are damaged, or delivered to the wrong place, or sent to the wrong person, they all deduct money. They deduct it quite ruthlessly; some people have a salary of several thousand, and in the end, when they get paid at the end of the month, they owe the Company several thousand."

Feng Baobao said with a serious face.

Then, beads of sweat began to seep from the foreheads of Wang Ye and Zhang Chulan.

"Fine, then I'll go with you. Let's get this straight first: I'm just accompanying you, don't expect us to be able to help you."

Facing Lin Xuan, Zhang Chulan also didn't quite know how to handle it; he always felt that the other party could see right through him.

Besides, on Longhu Mountain, that person had even helped him before.

However, going this time was just to ask for a favor, not to stir up trouble.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chulan relaxed quite a bit.

"It's a good thing I've been to Baiyun Guan with the Grandmaster before, so let's go now."

Wang Ye didn't delay at all and stood up directly to say.

The three of them took a car and left the city area, heading in the direction of Baiyun Guan.

……

Baiyun Guan.

Lin Xuan sat by the stone table, his eyes slightly closed, like a wooden statue.

Birds landed on his body and on the stone table in front of him.

In the distance, Lu Linglong saw this scene and didn't know whether she should come over.

Lin Xuan opened his eyes, waved his hand to drive away the birds, and then beckoned.

"Senior Brother!"

After Lu Linglong came over, she spoke in a low voice, her eyes still glancing toward Fang Dongtian's room.

"Stop looking, he's in seclusion. Tell me, what did you come here for?"

Lin Xuan asked after taking a look at Lu Linglong.

"Can't I come if there's nothing wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Linglong immediately pouted and acted spoiled.

"Naturally you can, but you definitely have a reason for coming. Did your grandfather send you?"
