Chapter 346 - Lord Cai Is Threatened?

Lin Mu was moving Yue to the inner room and left her on the bed. He understood from her previous reaction that what had happened was perhaps not her fault entirely and it was most likely the servants acting on their own so as to convince him to bed them.

Lin Mu could understand their intentions behind this a bit and knew that this was just a method for them to elevate their status a little bit.

~Sigh~

Another sigh escaped Lin Mu's lips as he felt a headache approaching him.

"Let's just get this over with, I've already wasted quite a bit of time." Lin Mu muttered to himself.

His spirit sense extended out of his body and wandered out in the area. Since his room was adjacent to the eastern wing, Lin Mu was able to reach around half of the length of the wing. Still, he was unable to peek into the rooms due to the barriers that had been set up.

But Lin Mu was not looking to peek inside to verify their ident.i.ty. Rather, he was looking at other signs. A few seconds later he determined the room in which the disciples of the Tri cauldron peony sect and Lord Cai were sitting in.

And how he found them? Shoes.

Lin Mu spotted the shoes that they had removed outside the room and could recognize them to match with the uniform of the disciples.

"There they are…" Lin Mu said as he sank into the ground with phase.

He was able to move rather easily as there was no bottom barrier restricting him. Lin Mu soon reached the room and it was as he had expected.

"So they really didn't bother to put a barrier to protect them from the ground." Lin Mu saw.

"Of course, just them setting up these many barriers must have been expensive. Besides, they probably would not have expected that someone would come through the ground, anyway." Xukong explained.

Lin Mu nodded as his spirit sense entered the room from a corner. He very carefully checked the entire room and got its layout. The room was much bigger than the one he was a.s.signed to, and it actually had five separate inner bedrooms in it.

There was a long table placed in the main room and the three disciples were sitting at it with Lord Cai. Around ten servants and courtesans were serving them, while the disciples took plenty of liberties with them. Lin Mu could see their hands wandering and groping while the women said nothing and instead showed looks of pleasure.

"Now to hear what they are speaking…" Lin Mu muttered to himself.

He moved upwards and appeared inside a large decoration shelf that was kept in the room. His ear peeked out from the back side of it that faced the wall.

"The peak master would definitely like to discuss an investment and seeing the quality here…" The senior brother spoke.

"Ayah!" The courtesan uttered in a teasing voice as the hand of the Senior brother gripped her behind.

"Yes, yes… with the peak master's investment, I can a.s.sure you that the quality of service can be improved even more." Lord Cai replied, skillfully ignoring the women.

"What do you want as the profit share to be though?" The senior brother asked without moving his gaze from the courtesan.

"How can I dare to ask the peak master something like this… we'll just follow the other contracts that the peak master has with the pleasure pavilions." Lord Cai said shamelessly.

"Hmm," the senior brother nodded.

"So now that we have this behind us, tell us what you were unwilling to say back then…" Pei Lao questioned.

Lord Cai looked at the women and they all stood up immediately before leaving the room. He then gestured with his hand and formation runes appeared in the runes. They glowed for a moment before fading away.

"Now we should have some proper privacy," Lord Cai stated as he clapped his hands.

"Oh, these are impressive formations. Looks like Lord Cai spared no expense for this establishment." Tie Dan praised.

"Of course, I want to make a pleasure pavilion of the utmost level that is possible for this place. Another reason why I want the support of a great man like peak master Yi Deng." Lord Cai boot licked.

'So Yi Deng is actually a peak master. Wait, didn't the Mayor have a conflict with a peak master according to the letter I read back then?' Lin Mu thought.

"It could be another peak master. Usually, in sects there are multiple departments that may be a.s.signed to different peaks. It's likely for this elder to be the peak master of another peak." Xukong explained.

"I understand Senior," Lin Mu replied as he continued hearing their conversation.

But just as he was doing this, he realized something.

"Oh no! The formation that he activated, trapped me in here too! I can't go out unless the formation is deactivated." Lin Mu said in his mind.

"Just hide well, and you should be able to get away easily," Xukong said, calming Lin Mu down.

Lin Mu silently nodded and contained listening.

"I wonder if Seniors have heard of a certain group of people that have been causing a few incidents lately?" Lord Cai questioned.

"Hmm, which specific group are you talking about… perhaps you mean by the disappearance of the mercenaries and some people?" The senior brother replied.

"Yes, seniors are indeed well informed. You see, this particular group has had a couple of interactions with me…" Lord Cai revealed.

The expressions of the three disciples went serious, and so did Lin Mu's.

'Is he part of the Gu legion too?' Lin Mu wondered.

"And what is your involvement with this particular… group? And before you say it, know that we already have orders from the sect to capture or exterminate if anyone from that particular group is found." The senior brother threatened.

These words of the Senior brother confused Lin Mu as he had thought that they were involved with the Gu legion too.

~Gulp~

"O-of course not. My involvement with them is of a victim, Seniors. They… have been threatening me, you see." Lord Cai explained.
