Chapter 979: The Alliance Master’s Teachings (24)
In the Alliance Master Mansion…
“Alliance Master, there is news…” A’Hu ran into Ming Shu’s room. When he saw Rong Li inside, he winked at him before saying to Ming Shu, “That man in the curtained hat appeared at a medicine shop in the east of the city.”
Ming Shu opened her eyes and looked at A’Hu.
A’Hu wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Our men saw him personally. They sent someone back to report to us. They are still following him now.”
The man in the curtained hat.. the senior brother of the Demonic Sect’s leader.
Although Ming Shu didn’t do anything, she didn’t forget what happened at that time.
They had not found the mastermind.
“Lead the way.”
“Alliance Master, I…”
“Stay at home.”
Rong Li stood in the courtyard and watched Ming Shu and A’Hu leave the house. He scanned his surroundings. Ming Shu never let anyone into her room. He went back and changed his clothes. Then, he sneaked out of the Alliance Master Mansion.
However, by the time he came out, Ming Shu was already gone.
East of the city… medicine shop.
Rong Li followed these two hints and went to the east of the city.
The east of the city was a prosperous area. There were a lot of medicine shops here. Rong Li didn’t know which one Ming Shu went to so he had to slowly look through all the shops.
“Your Highness.”
Someone blocked his path.
Rong Li looked at the man that blocked his path. He frowned. After some time, he resumed his calm expression and looked down slightly. He slouched a little.
He was back to being an easily bullied little poor boy.
“Why are you looking for me?”
“Your Highness, do you still remember your mission?” The man’s voice was cold. He didn’t have any respect for Rong Li even though he called him His Highness.
“We receive no information from you after you enter the alliance master’s residence.”
“You all didn’t contact me…” The truth was, he killed all the people that came to find him.
How could he give them information about his wife? Naive!
“What?” The man was shocked. “How can there be no one contacting you? We sent many people over but received no reply.”
“I don’t know. I didn’t receive anything.” F**k. If we were not on the streets, I would kill you.”
How dare you talk to me like this!
When I was famous, you were still a child!
The man sized up Rong Li. He felt that Rong Li would not lie to him.
His Highness…
His Highness was a timid person. He wouldn’t have the guts to lie to him. The man wondered why this prince was sent to complete this mission.
Was it because people tend to let down their guards against him?
The man was puzzled. “I will investigate this issue. What is the situation in the Alliance Master Mansion?”
Rong Li managed to convince the man with his nonsense.
Since the situation in the Alliance Master Mansion was similar to the rumors spreading in the pugilist world, Rong Li didn’t need to think much.
“It is good that the alliance master is not on good terms with the rest of the pugilist world…” The man paused. “Is she really as powerful as what the rumors say?”
Rong Li shook his head. “I can’t go out. However, I know that when someone came to the Alliance Master Mansion, half of the people in the mansion would leave.”
Because of what Rong Li said, the man felt that the rumors were exaggerated. Everyone in the Alliance Master Mansion must have gone out to the fight the heroes of the pugilist world. It was not done by the alliance master alone.
The man looked around. “Please come with me.”
It was a statement, not a question.
Rong Li rolled his eyes secretly.
“Yes.”
The man nodded and took Rong Li to the side.
As they walked toward a deserted area, Rong Li smiled. An evil glare replaced his pure and innocent gaze.
Boom!
The man in front of him froze and fell forward.
Rong Li threw away the stone in his hand and kicked the man.
How dare you act all haughty in front of me!
F**k, I wonder where my wife is...
[Dingdong, deducted 50 points.]
Rong Li: “…”
Can you repeat that?
[Dingdong, deducted 50 points.]
Rong Li exploded in anger.
Why? If you don’t give me a good reason, I will make sure that you have a hard time!
[Lord Nine, your character would never kill anyone. If you use other people to kill him, I can still help you. But this… you can’t blame me.] The system shivered in fear.
Rong Li: “…”
He is not dead yet, right?
[If he is not dead, you will be violating your character profile. More points will be deducted.]
Rong Li was frightened by what the system said and quickly stabbed the man again.
After he got rid of the body, he returned to the streets. He didn’t need to look for Ming Shu this time. He saw her fighting with the man in the curtained hat the moment he entered the street.
They were on a roof.
The people of the Alliance Master Mansion were below the house. They looked at the fight happily.
Shouldn’t they be helping their alliance master? Are they idiots?
Rong Li looked at the people on the roof. Everytime Ming Shu twisted her body, Rong Li got nervous. He was afraid that she would fall down.
The man in the curtained hat got caught in the flag that Ming Shu was holding. Ming Shu swung the flag and the man fell down the roof.
The man in the curtained hat flipped in the air and wanted to stabilize his body.
However, the next moment, he slammed onto the floor.
He quickly got up from the ground. He kneeled down with one knee and touched his waist. There was blood.
Who sneak attacked him?
Ming Shu jumped down from the roof. She swung the flag over her shoulder. The flag waved in the wind. The young girl looked like a general that just came back from the battleground.
She smiled and said slowly, “Why are you greeting me so formally?”
The man in the curtained hat raised his head.
He should be looking at her but Ming Shu couldn’t see his expression. It was covered by the curtained hat.
“Pfft.”
The man spat at her.
Ming Shu waved the flag toward the man. She lifted the flag and the man’s curtained hat fell. A handsome face was revealed.
Ming Shu pushed the flag against the man’s chest. The man couldn’t exert any force now so he fell on the ground.
Ming Shu raised her foot and stepped on his chest. “Were you the one who ordered people to shoot the hidden weapons that time?
The man tried to escape but the force on his chest was strong.
He gave up and sneered. “Yes. So what?”
“Who gave you the order?”
The man paused for a moment. “No one ordered me to. I just wanted to kill those sanctimonious people.”
“If you wanted to kill them, why not just use a lethal poison?”
“…” The man in the curtained hat gritted his teeth. “I don’t have the money to buy one.”
“…”
Ming Shu hit him with the flag. “Do you think that I am a gullible little girl? If you can’t buy it, you can just steal it. Don’t tell me you can’t afford it. You are working for the royal family. How can you be poor? Are you an idiot?”
The man in the curtained hat gasped in pain.
This girl…
She was scolding him as though he was a child.
This is so painful.
There seemed to be thorns on the flag.
“Enough!”
The man flared up. He replied angrily, “Someone ordered me to do this.”
“Who?”
“I don’t recognize the person.”
Ming Shu thought for a while. “What is the person’s motive?”
“How would I know. We are just helping each other to achieve our own goals.” The man in the curtained hat sneered.
This is not Luo Yan’s style.
Luo Yan liked to do things personally…
No!
She didn’t understand Luo Yan.
Just like how she didn’t understand Qi Yu much.
