Zhang San, please behave yourself!
Chapter 392 - 369: The Wardrobe Can’t Fit Anymore!

Chapter 392: Chapter 369: The Wardrobe Can’t Fit Anymore!

Zhang San had no weapons in his hands, so he simply condensed a Wind Blade right into the palm of his hand, ready to strike first and disable the intruder’s means of attack as soon as anyone broke through the window.

Just then, a familiar voice sounded from outside the window.

"Our Stone Buddha Temple gets few visitors, so the incense isn’t thriving. Near the Han Family’s polo grounds, we can’t just have a marketplace, so there’s a small temple stocked with Buddhist scriptures. It naturally attracts many pious women, increasing the flow of visitors. Go quickly to find the master here and ask if we can obtain some scriptures through donations, even persuade the monks from Stone Buddha Temple to come to the small temple near our polo grounds."

Hearing that it was Han Baiwen’s voice, Zhang San’s tension eased considerably.

But in the next instant, Zhang San realized something was off.

Why on earth would Han Baiwen come here?

Creak—

Zhang San cracked the door open and made a hand gesture inside. Seeing the anomaly, Han Baiwen understood what was happening.

Pushing the door open, when Han Baiwen saw that it was indeed Zhang San, he immediately shut the door, pulled Zhang San close, and whispered, "Brother San, things look grim."

"Hmm!?"

"I got a message from our people at Heavenly Punishment Sect located on Longyou Road. The Town Demon Office has summoned a Spiritual Platform Realm Peak divination master from Longyou Road overnight. This master can deduce the whereabouts and current status of a target based on the power of causality. He’s very formidable! Originally, they used him to hunt the Demon Clan members from All Things Path. Now that he’s been summoned, I’m afraid it’s specifically to deal with you!"

Hearing this, Zhang San couldn’t help but grimace.

"To target me, a minor True Core Realm martial artist, isn’t that overdoing it?"

Han Baiwen said, "To confirm this, I secretly contacted our insider from Heavenly Punishment Sect within the Town Demon Office at the Capital. I just got word that there has been a personnel move at the Town Demon Office, but they said those with too strong a murderous aura couldn’t come, mentioning that even temple sanctums require some discretion. I checked around, and it seems Stone Buddha Temple has the highest possibility. So I came over and, sure enough, I found you, Brother San."

Hearing this, Zhang San knew it was likely to be true.

"Alright, then go on with the Han Family’s affairs. I’ll say goodbye to the master here before I leave. It’s not good to leave without saying farewell."

As Zhang San said this and was about to step out, there came a knock at the door.

Frightened, Han Baiwen looked around the room, saw a sizable wardrobe, and swiftly hid inside it.

As Zhang San walked to answer the door, he was already prepared for a confrontation.

Indeed, upon opening the door he saw Chu Can from the Town Demon Office. Just as Zhang San was about to strike, Chu Can rushed in, shut the door behind her, and even stealthily peeked outside.

"Zhang San, I need your help!"

Zhang San couldn’t help but stare wide-eyed at Chu Can.

"Sister, I’m currently wanted all over town, what help could I possibly offer you? To lend you my head for a moment?"

Chu Can shook her head and whispered, "I went to Longyou Road, fought Demon Beasts, and gained cultivation resources—it was a blast. Later, I encountered people from the Town Demon Office, and seeing my outstanding abilities, they recruited me. I thought that joining the Town Demon Office would mean even Gluttonous Mountain would find it difficult to hunt me down. But I never imagined..."

At this point, Chu Can’s eyes filled with viciousness.

"Inside the Town Demon Office, the infighting was serious, to the extent that some would rather wait for their colleagues to die before acting, just to claim the credit. And that’s just what I saw. I even heard that some higher-ups, to outmaneuver each other, deliberately concealed the true strength of the Demon Clan we were to fight against, even assigning death-sentenced missions to others."

Hearing this, Zhang San couldn’t help but think of the office politics he had witnessed in his previous life.

All the benefits for oneself, leaving the blame and pitfalls for others.

"So, you want..."

Chu Can spoke softly, "I heard that after defection, some martial artists from the Town Demon Office were harbored by the Town Martial Office. So, I wanted to ask for your help."

Hearing this, Zhang San grimaced once again.

"Chu Can, although we met before and had an alright relationship, I’m currently on the wanted list. It’s not just the Town Demon Office after me, so is the Town Martial Office—I can’t arrange anything for you!"

Chu Can shook her head, trusting, "I saw how well you got on at the Town Martial Office, surely the people around you will help you. Plus, you once impersonated members of the Heavenly Punishment Sect. If you really were from the Heavenly Punishment Sect, wouldn’t those people have been tricked to their deaths by you, and how could they still be alive now?"

Although Zhang San hadn’t thought about this, he had to admit that if he was ever caught, this could actually be used as an argument in his defense.

"Well, I’ve also not come to ask for your help without offering something in return. The Town Demon Office has summoned a master of deducing from the Spiritual Platform Realm, and through Zheng Poyue’s blood, they’ve deduced that you’re in the Stone Buddha Temple. Now, they’re organizing a team to come and catch you."

Zhang San continued to grimace.

I already knew this information, and your request for help brings me a useless message...

But Zhang San couldn’t betray Han Baiwen!

Smiling wryly, he nodded and whispered, "Then, thanks for the information. I’ll find a way to help you once I return to the Town Martial Office."

Extracting someone from the Town Demon Office didn’t seem like a big problem to Zhang San.

After all, many from the Baili Family had already joined them.

However, just as Zhang San was about to escort Chu Can out, another knocking sound came from the door.

Zhang San shivered with fright—what on earth was going on!
