Chapter 1517: Chapter 1518: When the Drawing is Exhausted, the Dagger is Revealed

Capital City has many places known for elegance and leisure, but Xianya Xu is definitely one of the most unique among them.

With the most refined name, it conducts business that caters to all tastes, both meaty and vegetarian.

You cannot say it lacks leisure and sophistication; in fact, looking at the whole Capital City, there are few places that can compare with Xianya Xu in terms of elegance.

Yet it is exactly such an elegant place in Capital City where the most down-to-earth business of meat and wine thrives.

This has led many to look down on Xianya Xu, although there are also young masters like Yang Junmo who especially love it.

In his view, the two-character pursuit of enjoyment during one’s lifetime means elegance must include women; what kind of elegance would it be without them?

Clearly, Shen Qin had done his homework in advance, knowing Yang Junmo’s fondness for Xianya Xu and thus made the arrangement deliberately.

After entering the room, a group of ladies stood up immediately and spoke to Yang Junmo.

"Good evening, Young Master Yang."

Evidently, Shen Qin had already briefed them before Yang Junmo’s arrival.

"Quite a few new faces, it seems Xianya Xu hasn’t just been resting on its laurels these days."

Yang Junmo spoke in a much more relaxed tone.

Since Lin Ran’s incident, Yang Junmo hadn’t visited such places for quite some time, partly due to lack of interest and partly because there was no one to accompany him.

Such occasions call for a lively atmosphere; going alone would simply be too boring.

Yang Junmo turned to look at Shen Qin, obviously quite pleased with the arrangements he had made.

Seeing this, Shen Qin also responded with a smile, "As long as Young Master Yang is happy."

Having returned to his comfort zone, the frustration Yang Junmo felt about his trip to Qilong Court dissipated by a great deal, as he adeptly took a seat on the sofa, flanked by ladies, saying, "So, exactly which family are you looking to set me up with? Let me state upfront, those old stick-in-the-muds from the Ancient Clan, I don’t like dealing with them."

Shen Qin smiled and said, "Those outsiders aren’t much different from our Shen Clan; there’s no need to curry favor with them. There’s no rush on this matter, Young Master Yang, let’s have a couple of drinks first."

The manner of discussing business over drinks suited Yang Junmo well, and he comfortably sat on the sofa saying, "If only I had met you sooner in the Capital City, I imagine I would have had fewer troubles."

"Troubles?"

Shen Qin asked, his eyebrows raised, "What kind of troubles could Young Master Yang possibly have in Capital City? The power of the Demon Slayer Department is increasingly stable, and it’s nearly in a league of its own among the Two Bureaus and Three Departments. The most recently appointed Demon Slayer Envoy, the Saint Envoy Tian Heng is well-known in the Capital City, and he’s your friend. What troubles could you have?"

"Don’t mention that guy to me."

Upon hearing Shen Qin mention Su Chengyu, Yang Junmo’s expression suddenly darkened, signaling to Shen Qin to drop the topic.

However, Shen Qin who had been on the right track since meeting, as if confused, continued to speak, "Nowadays in Capital City, who can not mention Saint Envoy Tian Heng? Everyone says that this Envoy, who received the Emperor’s blessing, will be the next Xu Zijing. Not only surpassing Lone Star but even surpassing Cold Moon Envoy to become the legitimate successor of the Demon Slayer Department."

A single statement seemed to light up all the threads in Yang Junmo’s mind; in that moment, it seemed that all the answers were intertwined, and Yang Junmo felt as though he had found the solution to all his doubts at this time.

Yang Junmo, who likewise sensed something, looked up at Shen Qin and asked softly, "What exactly did you come to me for today?"

Shen Qin smiled slightly and said, "Initially, I had hoped that Young Master Yang would introduce me to this young Cold Moon Envoy of Tian Heng, but now that I’ve made a new discovery, I’ve changed my mind."

"Do you want to deal with Su Chengyu?"

Yang Junmo was no fool. With the conversation having reached this point, he naturally understood the true purpose of Shen Qin’s gentle probing.

Shen Qin whispered, "Young Master Yang, I know that you and the Cold Moon Envoy are friends, but the person you brought into Capital City will soon become the greatest threat to the Yang Family. Could it be that your reservations about Su Chengyu stem from this?"

"Oh?"

Yang Junmo couldn’t help scoffing. He admitted that he indeed felt at a loss about how to deal with Su Chengyu, but he was very clear that his hesitation and doubts were not because of this.

However, Shen Qin acted as if he knew everything and whispered, "As long as Young Master Yang is willing to help me, I can help your Yang Family eliminate Su Chengyu."

"How will you help?"

Yang Junmo neither rejected nor denied the suggestion, simply following up with a question.

Shen Qin gave a look to the others present, and the woman in the room immediately left the private room before Shen Qin continued in hushed tones, "I have an undercover agent who has been monitoring the residence of Su Chengyu. In addition to confirming that there is a deeply unfathomable Cultivator guarding the place, we have also detected the presence of a member of the Demon Clan."

"Demon Clan?"

"Yes. My Shen Clan has been suppressing demons in the Northeastern Seven Provinces for a century and has a unique method of detecting and enforcing against the Demon Clan’s aura. Su Chengyu would never expect that we could bypass his barriers and confirm the presence of a Demon Clan member in his residence. A Demon Slayer Department Head harboring a demon—what do you think would happen if this were to come to light?"

Yang Junmo squinted his eyes, looking at Shen Qin with suspicion, "May I know why you want to make a move against Su Chengyu?"

Shen Qin blinked and said, "Is that important? Your Yang Family wants to deal with Su Chengyu, and I also want to deal with Su Chengyu. Isn’t the shared goal enough?"

Looking at Shen Qin, knowing that the other party would not reveal more, Yang Junmo glanced at him and replied frankly, "If you had found my brother today, he might have agreed to your proposal, but unfortunately, you found the wrong person."

Yang Junmo stood up to leave. He was, indeed, surprised by his family’s attitude towards Su Chengyu and hadn’t figured out what role he was supposed to play. But from start to finish, he had never intended to get involved in these matters.

If possible, he would have preferred not to know any of this at all, but alas...

"Young Master Yang, are you trying to stay out of this?"

Yang Junmo frowned, glaring at Shen Qin with full anger, "What’s it to you? How I choose my friends or my foes is none of my father’s business, let alone something you have the right to question!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qin caught on and said dreamily, "I see, so this is your personal stance, not that of the Yang Family. A single misstep leads to a cascade of errors, it seems I have underestimated Su Chengyu’s importance to Young Master Yang. Unfortunately, it seems I can no longer turn back. Since Su Chengyu is so important in Young Master Yang’s eyes, I think Young Master Yang must also weigh heavily in Su Chengyu’s estimation, right?"

Yang Junmo furrowed his brow instantly, "What do you mean by that?"

Shen Qin looked at Yang Junmo with a cold smile. His aura, which was originally at the early stage of Golden Core, was rapidly changing, and within a few breaths, it had shifted to the Golden Core late stage. He then spoke to Yang Junmo with a sinister tone.

"Young Master Yang, now that you know so much, it would be difficult to remain uninvolved. So, I must trouble Young Master Yang to come with me."

The moment his words fell, several Techniques were launched simultaneously, racing towards Yang Junmo. Prepared for this, Yang Junmo instantly executed the Divine Dragon Treasure Technique to counter the assault.
