Chapter 1346: Chapter 1346: Questioning Identity

Su Chengyu furrowed his brows, about to speak, when Mo Ningchen stepped forward and asked, "Old sir, are you also a person under the Duke of Night Raven?"

The old Executor shook his head: "You both think too highly of us. How could someone of our humble standing catch the eye of His Grace? In Linbei City, it’s all too simple for the Duke to find out whatever he wants. I am merely a common businessman, merely passing on a message for you two right now."

Su Chengyu clearly didn’t believe the old Executor’s words, but Mo Ningchen shook his head, signaling Su Chengyu not to make unnecessary complications.

Suddenly, Su Chengyu thought of something and quickly returned to the room. Fortunately, Fang Qing was still there alone, and no one had sneaked in.

Seeing the somewhat flustered Su Chengyu in front, the uneasy Fang Qing spoke up.

"Su Chengyu, what happened?"

Su Chengyu shook his head and said, "Nothing’s wrong, we just need to leave here temporarily. Stay in my Small Opening for now."

Fang Qing nodded, not daring to ask more, and complied with Su Chengyu’s arrangement to stay inside the True Dragon Armor’s Small Opening.

After coming back downstairs, he saw that Mo Ningchen had exchanged a few more words with the old Executor.

Mo Ningchen spoke softly, "Let’s go. I’ve already found out where the manor is."

Su Chengyu nodded, his gaze finally glancing at the old Executor one last time before leaving the inn brought by You Ming.

Quite a while after the two of them left, the old Executor received his third special group of visitors for the day.

"They have left, heading to the Night Raven’s manor."

The old Executor seemed quite familiar with this last group of people.

The person also bluntly asked, "Is Night Raven in conflict with them?"

"I don’t know. It seems to be because of a Cultivator from Xia Country, named Fang Qing."

"Fang Qing? Do you have detailed information?"

"I don’t have it on hand, but Night Raven’s showcase displayed quite a lot of her information, many people saw it."

"Alright, I understand. I will continue to investigate their identities following this lead."

The old Executor, unable to restrain himself as the person turned to leave, asked, "When does the Alliance plan to transfer me to Thousand Tents City?"

"Wait a bit longer. The infiltration into Thousand Tents City isn’t going as smoothly as expected; the risks of establishing a presence there are still too high."

Heading towards the manor, Su Chengyu was still thinking about the old Executor’s matter in his mind. He always felt that the old Executor was hiding something, but for the moment, he couldn’t find any clues.

"Now in Linbei City, we are surrounded by enemies on all sides. If we can offend fewer natives, let’s try to avoid unnecessary trouble, even if it’s for the mission, you must ensure your own survival rate."

Mo Ningchen, seeing what Su Chengyu was thinking, spoke softly.

"I understand, it just feels a bit strange. Besides..."

"The War God of Linbei City wouldn’t easily make a move. This War God has been in Linbei City for three hundred years. Even during the great war a hundred years ago, this War God only defended Linbei without contributing any effort to the Bei Luo Empire."

Guessing what Su Chengyu was thinking, Mo Ningchen took the initiative to speak.

"Exactly, I was wondering how a War God could secretly support such transactions."

The people of Linbei City kept saying that the underground black market was supported and maintained by the War God, which always seemed off to Su Chengyu.

The Western War God is equivalent to a Martial God.

People who reach this realm have absolutely no reason to be so dependent on money, and it would be reasonable to turn a blind eye to these matters. Su Chengyu couldn’t understand why the War God would support such things.

"Isn’t everything reliant on words? Such talk in Linbei City is just to ensure the stable operation of the underground black market, which is now the most important economic system of Linbei City. By the way, what kind of strength does this Duke of Night Raven have?"

Although Mo Ningchen had seen the Duke of Night Raven from afar, he wasn’t as clear as Su Chengyu, who had encountered him at close range, so he asked.

"Minimum estimate, Nascent Soul level, but his strength is somewhat strange; not a cultivator, nor a common martial artist."

"A Bei Luo witch?"

"Hmm?"

Hearing this term for the first time, Su Chengyu asked.

"After the Bei Luo People studied Nether Technique, a special profession emerged, which you can understand as the cultivators of Bei Luo. Various witchcrafts are basically transformations from Nether Techniques; however, for the Nether Clan and the Bei Luo witches, the highest realm they can reach is the Hollow Void Realm."

Instantly understanding, Su Chengyu realized that the witch of Bei Luo was a profession similar to the Onmyoji and witches of Dongying, also transformed from a cultivation system that could reach the pinnacle, but after transforming, they had lost the possibility to become Land Immortals.

"It seems like just an ordinary Nascent Soul, nothing to be afraid of. However, inside the castle, that executor who helped him bid does not look simple."

Su Chengyu nodded: "Although that guy looks old, his vitality is robust and his stance is very upright; he’s definitely a martial artist by training, and there’s a good chance he is a Martial God."

As the biggest merchant of Linbei City’s underground black market, it was not surprising to have a Martial God among his ranks.

During the commotion at the castle, Su Chengyu sensed hostility released by this man and even considered the worst-case scenario of forcibly rescuing Fang Qing.

Fortunately, Duke of Night Raven chose not to openly confront Su Chengyu at that time.

"My lady, why didn’t you let me capture that guy at that time?"

The executor standing behind Duke of Night Raven, Duke of Night Raven looked back at the person beside him and said, "The enemy is hidden and vital to me. The people around him managed to incapacitate the guards within the castle without anyone noticing, his strength may not be below yours."

"Thanks for your consideration, my lady, it’s just..."

"No buts!" the Duke of Night Raven interrupted immediately: "I know what you’re thinking, but understand that I am a merchant. Fighting those people in the castle, regardless of winning or losing, would bring great losses to this special event. Moreover, as long as they are in Linbei City, they can’t escape from my grasp. Why rush at that moment? Not to mention the unexpected bonus that presented itself."

Duke of Night Raven stood up and walked to the front, addressing You Ming who had been paralyzed by the Illusory Poison Needle and lost the ability to use her mana. She raised You Ming’s emotionless face gently and whispered, "Black Rose, right? Are you really not going to disclose your identity? If you come clean, we might have more room for negotiation."

You Ming blinked and said, "Didn’t I already tell you? We are from the Bei Tang Family."

"Bei Tang Family?" Duke of Night Raven scoffed: "Does the Bei Tang Family have the power to slay an Earth Immortal recently? Do you think I’m a fool?"

"That was the young master’s own achievement, it has nothing to do with our Bei Tang Family."

Duke of Night Raven, looking at You Ming still stubbornly arguing, coldly laughed: "Then let’s wait for your young master to arrive, and see if he shares the same story!"
