Chapter 1545: Chapter 1367: A Stormy Night in Jianghu

Bei Shan also grinned smugly, "Well...this is a trick I learned from a brothel in Central Plains when I used to fool around, how about it? Pretty neat, eh?"

Hong Yan spat, "Just untie me quickly, if you don’t let me go, I certainly won’t let you off easily!"

"Oh, and how exactly won’t you let me off? Are you going to tie me up and rape me before you kill me?" Bei Shan was still all smiles and jest.

"I’ll pass on the rape, but killing you is a must!" Hong Yan responded coldly.

She had bigger fish to fry than to waste time killing him.

Taking advantage of the fact that Hong Yan’s ropes were still not untied, Bei Shan cheekily planted a kiss on her face, before finally loosening her bonds, but not without seizing the opportunity to cop a feel.

"Oops, I didn’t do it on purpose!" Bei Shan rubbed against her while untying her.

"Whoa there, the ground is too slippery; I lost my footing," he feigned falling, pinning her down.

Seeing the flame in Hong Yan’s eyes burn brighter and brighter, Bei Shan then seriously loosened the rope behind her but left her feet tied up, immediately spinning into action with his lightness kung fu skills and making a quick escape.

Better to avoid having Hong Yan follow him.

Hong Yan quickly untied the ropes around her feet as well, and as soon as they were off, she wanted to chase after Bei Shan.

Bei Shan, you’ve gone too far, I’ll see to it that you’re tied up and suspended for three days and nights.

But the woods were very clear; where was there any sign of Bei Shan?

Hong Yan shook her numb limbs from being tied up, her chest heaving with anger.

It had been a long time since she got angry; as a witch serving beside the Clan Chief, she was always calm and collected. She hadn’t expected to be driven nearly to the point of exploding by Bei Shan this time.

...

Li City.

This was the most bustling area in Nan Zhao Country and also its Imperial City.

The common people here were no different from those in Central Plains, all living ordinary lives and trying to make a living.

After arriving here, Brother Ye and Nan Feng gradually learned quite a bit about the current state of Nan Zhao Country. Originally, Nan Zhao Country was organized into tribes, but later on, the Witch King unified these tribes, and it had since become a little kingdom.

The Red Dawn Clan, Moon Shadow Clan, and Moon Heart Clan were the three major tribes of Nan Zhao Country, and it was only their members who practiced gu-witchcraft; the clan leaders and elders of these tribes all served the royal family directly.

The common people of Nan Zhao Country held these three tribes in great awe, saying they were envoys of the gods.

Outside, simply claiming to be a member of one of the three major tribes would earn you good treatment, but these tribes usually lived in seclusion in the great mountains and rarely came out; those you met outside were almost always impostors.

After wandering in Li City for a while, Brother Ye and Nan Feng stopped in front of a modest tailor shop. The storefront of the tailor shop was very small, with only an old man inside who looked very old and was sewing shoe soles. It seemed that business wasn’t particularly good here.

Nan Feng looked at Brother Ye and asked, "Is this the Li City branch of the Bagua Gate?"

Brother Ye nodded, "It should be. The more inconspicuous it looks, the bigger the secret it often hides. Let’s go in and see, and we’ll know!"

"Right," responded Nan Feng.

After Brother Ye and Nan Feng went in, the tailor raised his eyelids, "The two of you certainly didn’t come here to patronize my business, did you? What can I do for you?"

"We were referred by the leader of the Bagua Gate to come here and inquire about some things," Nan Feng said.

"The leader?" the tailor scoffed, "There aren’t many in Jianghu who inquire about Nan Zhao Country. My place is as quiet as a sparrow’s nest, as the saying goes, scarcity makes something more valuable. If you want to inquire about something, you’ll have to pay a certain price first."

"What price?" Brother Ye asked.
