Chapter 2298: Chapter 2298: Used to Deal with Criminals!

The barrier of the Sea Vast Forest can only be opened by the City Lord of Sky City. Therefore, if Lu Tianfeng wants to enter, he must use his wife’s influence.

"Nian, do you think Lu Tianfeng wants to enter the Sea Vast Forest for something other than the herbs?"

Thinking about Lu Tianfeng, he asked again.

After all, the herbs in the Sea Vast Forest are far more abundant than the mere dozens listed by Lu Tianfeng.

Besides, Lu Tianfeng himself can already enter the Sea Vast Forest. Perhaps this herb list is just a pretense; he might aim to acquire far more herbs and other things.

Isn’t it possible? Isn’t that the case?

"I haven’t considered that question before," Lin Baizhong hesitated, replying.

It seems necessary to speak with his daughter and son-in-law again; Lu Tianfeng might indeed have ulterior motives for entering the Sea Vast Forest.

"I’ll go to the Sea Vast Forest myself," he said.

"Alright, that’s perfect!"

Lu Tianlan clapped his hands together, looking delighted.

...

Since that day, Lu Tianfeng’s mansion had become bustling.

The City Lord’s wife borrowed An Shen and An Meng from the City Lord, who originally intended them to monitor activities secretly.

But the City Lord’s wife didn’t act covertly; instead, she brazenly assigned the two of them to stay openly by Lu Tianfeng’s side.

Under the guise of protecting Lu Tianfeng, she claimed it was to safeguard the child in her womb.

Thus, she insisted on having people follow Lu Tianfeng everywhere to prevent him from being harmed, which could indirectly endanger her unborn child.

"Even when I go to the restroom, you’ll follow me?"

Taking a deep breath, he turned his head to glare at the two individuals trailing him.

What now? Couldn’t he even relieve himself without someone watching him?

"Apologies, Young Master Tianfeng, but please wear this," An Meng said, holding out a crystalline object to Lu Tianfeng.

Lu Tianfeng: "..."

"The Soul Summoning Bead is meant for criminals!" he ground his teeth, addressing An Meng.

Had they started treating him like a criminal now? When did his status in Sky City fall to such a level?

"Young Master Tianfeng, our lady said that in extraordinary times, extraordinary measures are required. Although the Soul Summoning Bead is typically used for particularly heinous criminals, for your safety, we had no choice but to utilize this."

The Soul Summoning Bead could lock onto a person’s soul, revealing everything they said and did the moment they were out of sight.

Moreover, once placed on someone, it was nearly impossible to remove.

"Hah!"

Lu Tianfeng let out a heavy sigh.

He was utterly exasperated—when had the City Lord’s wife become so unreasonable?

"Fine, just you wait!"

He reached out, took the Soul Summoning Bead into his hand, and headed to the restroom.

But in his heart, he had already made up his mind—soon, he would go to the City Lord’s Mansion and demand that the City Lord rid him of these two pests!

...

At the City Lord’s Mansion.

"I’m already at the City Lord’s Mansion. Nothing should go wrong now, right?"

Standing outside Lu Tianlan’s study, Lu Tianfeng turned, glaring at the two who still lingered, grinding his teeth as he spoke.

"Young Master Tianfeng, we’ll wait for you outside the City Lord’s study," An Shen and An Meng said in unison.

"Very well."

Lu Tianfeng narrowed his eyes dangerously, turned, and strode into the study.

"So, did you gain anything?"
