Chapter 411 - Departure
Li Huowang glanced at Bei Feng taunting him before looking at Zhuge Yuan.
“Senior Zhuge, can you use your artifact that prevents him from lying?” Li Huowang asked. He knew that Zhuge Yuan's almanac was capable of countering the Sitting Oblivion Dao. With him around, the Sitting Oblivion Dao’s deception wouldn't work.
“The almanac is still in effect. You can continue your questioning. He cannot lie for now.”
Li Huowang kneeled down and looked at Bei Feng tauntingly. “What’s wrong? Do you not want to say it? Should I ask Zhuge Yuan to add another rule stating that it's forbidden not to talk?”
“I’m not a three-year-old boy. The others are already in the city.”
“Which city? Stop trying to skimp on the details!”
“Where else? Shangjing.”
“Where are they right now?” Li Huowang asked.
“They arrived in the eastern area this afternoon, and I don’t know where they are right now.”
“Why are the Sitting Oblivion Dao members in Shangjing? Shangjing is where the headquarters of the Surveillance Bureau is located. Are you not afraid of getting captured?”
“Afraid? Hehe, we prioritize deceiving others. We're never afraid of anyone. The reason we never went to Shangjing is that we simply thought that it was a boring place," Bei Feng replied.
“Stop changing the subject! Talk! Why are you in Shangjing?!” Li Huowang roared with a grim look.
Bei Feng scoffed at Li Huowang’s disfigured face and said, “Our boss, Shai Zi[1] told us to come here. He said that the Emperor of the Liang Kingdom is doing something in the shadows. He told us to come here and see if we can deceive him. As for what he's doing, you probably know more than me. I just arrived here, so I know less than you.”
The emperor? Li Huowang recalled Ji Xiang's search for a Muddled One, the heavily damaged warship, and the previous emperor, who was executed not too long ago.
Li Huowang swept his gaze across the crowd of people, who were convinced that they were citizens of the Qi Kingdom. Then, he turned to Zhuge Yuan and whispered, “My apologies, but I will have to leave for a while. There’s something I need to do. I'm not abandoning you; it's just that it's urgent. I'll return once I'm done.”
“No worries.” Zhuge Yuan was not offended at all. “Now that you know Bei Feng is within the city, what are you going to do?”
“The entire Sitting Oblivion Dao is here, so I can't fight any of them on my own. I have a plan, but I’m not sure whether it will work or not. Still, it’s better than nothing."
Zhuge Yuan nodded. “Sure. Go and do your thing. You can come find me if you have any issues.”
Li Huowang's heart felt warm at the remark. Zhuge Yuan was indeed one of the few kind people in this crazy world.
“All right.” Li Huowang bowed to Zhuge Yuan and ran out of the Liang Residence.
Li Huowang didn’t take a detour. He jumped on roofs after roofs, running in the southwest direction. His bold actions attracted some eyes, but no one stopped him the moment he raised his identity token.
Half an hour later, Li Huowang finally arrived at the Surveillance Bureau after jumping onto a myriad roofs. The person standing at the door wasn't the man from the Mo Family. The guard was a skinny woman covered in bandages with a black talisman on her forehead. Her skin was dark, and her orifices were plugged with yellow soil. It was downright frightening seeing someone like her in an empty room.
“Let me in, I have urgent news!” Li Huowang exclaimed.
The skinny woman didn't move, but the hidden door opened by itself.
Li Huowang ran into the hidden door and traced the path according to his memories.
Soon, he found himself in the hall filled with screens once more. He looked around and saw that there were few people in the hall, as only a handful of the screens were illuminated with candles.
Li Huowang ignored them and ran up to Nangong's desk. “Senior Nangong, I have urgent news! The entire Sitting Oblivion Dao is here in Shangjing!”
