Hong Yan lay in the wooden bucket, allowing the hot water to wash away the fatigue of the day. She was thinking about how she could find the legendary Young Master Silver Fox and kill him without anyone knowing, completing her master's mission.
This was the first time she had acted alone. In the past, she had either gone with Eldest Brother or Fourth Junior Sister. Now, she realized that she was a little confused and didn't know what to do.
If it was Eldest Senior Brother, what would he do?
He recalled that when they worked together to assassinate Thunderbolt Hall, Eldest Brother would first find out where Thunderbolt Hall was, then spend a few days to familiarize himself with it, and then carry out the assassination when he was fully prepared.
To kill Young Master Silver Fox, the first thing he needed to know was where he was. If he didn't even know where his people were, how could he kill them? Knowing his whereabouts was the most important task.
The best places to know his whereabouts were inns, teahouses, and brothels. There was nothing wrong with an inn or a teahouse, but the thought of a brothel made Hongyan's scalp tingle. It was better not to go there.
After making up her mind, Hongyan got up and came out of the wooden bucket. She put on her clothes and lay down on the bed. Even if she was asleep, she would remain extremely alert. If there was any movement, she would wake up immediately. She was not as deep asleep as she was on the Vast Mountain.
Thinking of the Boundless Mountain, she wondered how Cao Shu's martial arts skills were going. Thinking of Cao Shu, the corners of Hongyan's mouth curled up slightly.
Feng Xuan was also in this small town at this time, but he was luckier than her and had found a good inn earlier. He played with the Silver Fox mask and thought about those useless sect masters. He was angry. Fortunately, the Sentinel Sect was not far from here. If nothing unexpected happened, he would arrive soon.
At this time, how could he know that his residence was already in a state of panic? Feng Sen had received a secret report that someone wanted to harm Feng Xuan. In a moment of desperation, he immediately informed the contact points of the various stations to be careful if they saw Feng Xuan. The residence had also sent people to search for him.
At daybreak, Hongyan got up and walked down the inn. She said to the waiter,"Waiter, give me two buns and a bowl of porridge.”
The waiter replied and went back to work. Hongyan saw that there were very few people in the inn now. It must not be noon yet. By then, the latest news from Jianghu would probably spread.
Soon, the waiter brought the things Hong Yan wanted and went down. She slowly bit the bun and quickly thought about how to pass the time.
He would buy some water and dry food first, lest he went to a place with no one and starved to death.
He did as he thought and immediately finished the steamed buns and porridge. He casually threw a small piece of silver on the table and left.
As he strolled along the streets, he expected to meet Young Master Silver Fox. This way, he would be at ease.
Hong Yan walked outside for a long time, but she did not find Young Master Silver Fox. She sighed in her heart. How long would it take to find him? He raised his head and looked at the sun. It was almost noon. Based on her many years of experience, she felt that the people in this inn were the most complicated. At the door, she could see people talking loudly and drinking big mouthfuls of wine. There was a shining big knife beside them. As long as they drank a few glasses of wine, they would say anything. It seemed that if she wanted to get news of him, she just had to enter this house.
Before the seats were full, Hong Yan walked in without hesitation. The hall was quiet for a while, but soon it became noisy again. The reason why they were quiet was that they were surprised by this single woman entering this place. At the same time, they were also attracted by her appearance. They were noisy because there were many such things in Jianghu. There was no need to make a fuss.
The waiter had seen many things and welcomed her warmly. He wanted to find a private seat for her. After all, there were so many men outside, so it was not good.
Hongyan didn't care. How could she gather information if she stayed in the private room? He declined the waiter's kindness and sat down in a corner of the lobby. He ordered a few dishes and began to listen to the conversation around him seriously.
Sure enough, after a few bowls of wine, the burly sweaty man at the next table started talking.
"Have you heard? After the bandits from Mount Emei wiped out several gangs, they finally aroused public anger. They were jointly hunted down by many gangs. If it weren't for the green-clothed fairy, the leaders of those bandits would have all died.”
"Fairy Green-clothed, why did you save them?”
"I think it's most likely that the green-clothed fairy has taken a fancy to one of those thieves and is preparing to bring him back to raise him.”
As soon as he said this, a burst of laughter immediately rang out in the surroundings. Even Hong Yan laughed when she heard this.
"You have to be careful when you say this. If the green-clothed fairy takes a fancy to you one day, she will also bring you back to raise you.”
When he said this, it caused another round of laughter. The sweaty face immediately turned the color of pig liver. He was angry and annoyed, but there was nothing he could do.
"After this happened, why didn't Young Master Silver Fox do anything?”
Hong Yan listened for a long time but still did not hear the news she wanted. She could not help but be a little anxious and could not help but interrupt.
"Young lady, look at what you're saying. Young Master Silver Fox was neither her husband nor her master. How could she care? If Young Master Silver Fox was really her husband, she didn't know how angry he would be. It was better for him to divorce her as soon as possible.”
Hongyan thought about it and agreed. But how could she lead the topic to Young Master Silver Fox? Just as she was in a terrible state, someone helped her.
"Speaking of Young Master Silver Fox, I regret it in my heart. I've always wanted to find an opportunity to meet him and spar with him, but I just can't find him. Last time, it wasn't easy for me to find out his whereabouts. When I arrived, he had already left. If he really knew, I would have gone earlier so that I wouldn't have missed him. Everyone, who knows where Young Master Silver Fox is? You may tell me, and I will be eternally grateful.”
Hearing this, Hong Yan quickly pricked up her ears and listened carefully.
