Huang Rong was very efficient. In just one night, she sent a secret signal to meet Xia An.
"I found the base of the people with the Ba Shu accent, but there are far more than three of them, and the old man leading them is especially vigilant.”
"If I hadn't reacted fast enough, I would have been caught by that old man.”
"Where are they staying?" Xia An asked.
"In the residential area in the alley to the east of Jindao School, there are two big red lanterns hanging at the door.”
"Did you see how many of them there were?”
"I didn't dare to get too close, but judging from the voices, there were at least seven or eight people.”
After listening to Huang Rong's reply, Xia An was even more certain that these guys from the Tang Sect were up to no good. On the surface, they said that only three people had come, but there were still so many people hiding behind the scenes.
"Not bad, you did well!"
"What else do you need me to do next?”Huang Rong said excitedly.
Through these few interactions, Xia An could tell that the little beggar was a woman dressed as a man.
The other party's personality, coupled with his cynical attitude, made him vaguely guess.
However, before the other party exposed it, he couldn't take the initiative to expose it.
Although it would be more convenient to ask for his help, Xia An thought about it and felt that it was better not to involve too many people.
"There might be risks in what happens next, so you don't have to participate.”
"It's okay, I'm not afraid!"
"You can't be afraid either."
As she spoke, Xia An took out a piece of silver and stuffed it into her hand, continuing to play along with her role.
"Use this money to buy a new set of clothes, take a shower, and clean up. After I'm done with my matters, I'll think of a way to find a way for you to make a living.”
After saying that, he turned around and left without any room for rejection.
Huang Rong was so angry that she almost threw the silver at the back of his head.
This was such a fun game, and the next part was the most interesting part. How could she miss it?
"Hmph, if you say you won't do it, then I won't do it.”
After Xia An and Huang Rong parted ways, they followed the map to the vicinity of Jindao Sect.
Jindao Sect was a famous sect in the Central Capital and occupied a large area.
The alley on the east side of the cave is about six or seven feet wide and about a hundred paces long.
There were seven or eight families on the east side of the alley, and the third one had two big red lanterns hanging at the door.
When Xia An passed by the door of the house, she listened attentively and heard the faint sound of Ba Shu dialect coming from inside.
Looking up, there was an old tree in the courtyard of Jindao Sect on the west side of the alley. The canopy was like an umbrella, and the wanton growth of its branches and leaves covered most of the sky in the box path.
Xia An leaped up and climbed onto the tree crown.
The luxuriant old tree provided him with the perfect hiding conditions. If the people below did not look up carefully, they would not be able to discover that there was a person hiding in the tree.
From a bird's eye view, the situation inside the house was clear at a glance.
There were indeed several men in the residence who spoke the Ba Shu dialect, but their attire was different from the Tang Sect disciples he had seen yesterday.
The leader of these people was a short middle-aged man.
The man had two small mustaches on his lips, and with his sharp mouth and monkey-like cheeks, he looked cunning and mean.
When the surrounding people saw this man, they all bowed as disciples.
"Renhao, have you found out what I asked you to find out?”The man asked a young man with a sword.
"Master, I've already asked around. The person who had a conflict with Six Fan School yesterday was a Tang Sect disciple.”
"Hmph, I knew that there was definitely something wrong with these fellows coming to the Central Capital. Fortunately, I discovered it early, or else I wouldn't even know that someone had secretly picked the peaches.”
"But I don't think they're here for Jindao Sect.”
"What do you know? Those people from the Tang Sect only know how to do things behind the scenes. They've always wanted to find a sect's ultimate technique to make up for their own shortcomings.”
"Those fellows wouldn't have left Ba Shu if they didn't have anything to do. Now that they've come to the Central Capital, could it be that they're here to sightsee?”
"In this Central Capital, other than the thing in Lin Zhennan's hands, what else is worth coveting?”
"Then what does Master mean?"
" While they are being held back by Six Fan School, let's cut the Gordian knot and leave after snatching the things..."
Xia An, who was crouching on the treetop, understood that the people staying in this house were not Tang Sect disciples.
It was the Qingcheng Sect, which was also from the Ba Shu region.
The short man leading the group was the Sect Leader of the Qingcheng Sect, Yu Canghai.
The few young men beside him should be the Four Prodigies of Green City and some other disciples.
Their purpose for coming here was also very clear. It was to seize the Evil-Warding Sword Manual in Lin Zhennan's hands.
Lin Zhennan's father-in-law was the sect master of the Jindao Sect. Whenever he came to the Central Capital, he would usually stay at his father-in-law's house.
Due to the discrepancy in the information, Yu Canghai mistakenly believed that the Tang Sect's people had come to the Central Capital for the sword manual.
Therefore, he brought his disciples here in an attempt to snatch the sword manual before the Tang Sect made a move.
Xia An couldn't help but be a little calculative. If he could make good use of this opportunity, he might be able to divert the trouble without even needing to do anything.
After he left the residence, he thought about how he could make use of the information gap to lure the Qingcheng Sect to attack the Tang Sect's people…
