After leaving Min Ningwan’s courtyard, Madam Ru b.u.mped into Ji Minglou.

“Brother.”

She greeted him.

“Hall Master.”

Cai Lian bowed.

Ji Minglou nodded slightly and looked at Madam Ru. “Are you back to see Mother?”

“Yes.” Madam Ru nodded.

She had relied on her brother since she was young. The first person she thought of when she encountered something was always her brother.

This was no exception.

However, as her mother’s instructions flashed across her mind, she swallowed the urge to tell her brother about Yun Lin’s background.

Ji Minglou looked at his sister’s slightly haggard face and comforted her. “Don’t take the rumors on the island to heart. The City Lord isn’t that kind of person. He won’t go to the Hundred Flowers Palace to have fun no matter what.”

Madam Ru smiled bitterly in her heart.

She rather hoped that the City Lord had taken a fancy to a disciple of the Hundred Flowers Palace and not realized that Yun Lin was his biological son.

After all, disciples were much easier to deal with than the young Palace Lord.

Madam Ru smiled and said, “I understand, Brother. I’ll return to the City Lord Manor first. Take care.”

Ji Minglou was still worried about her. “I’ll send you back.”

Madam Ru hurriedly said, “There’s no need, Brother. You’ve been so busy recently that I haven’t seen you much. I was still thinking about you just now. If you have time, go accompany me more.”

With that, she shouted into the courtyard, “Mother, Big Brother is here to pay his respects!”

After getting into the carriage back to the residence, Cai Lian asked Madam Ru, “Madam, why didn’t you get the Hall Master to send you off?”

Madam Ru sighed. “He’s my biological brother. I’m afraid I won’t be able to help but tell him Yun Lin’s background.”

Cai Lian understood.

The Hall Master doted on his sister, Madam. The siblings were close.

It was said that before the old Hall Master died, he was delirious and almost killed his biological daughter.

It was the Hall Master who blocked the sword for Madam. There was still a scar on the Hall Master’s body.

“But Madam, how are we going to deal with the Young Palace Lord of the Flower Palace?”

“How do we deal with him…”

Madam Ru frowned thoughtfully.

The best way to prevent future trouble was to make Yun Lin disappear from this world. As long as he was gone, her little young master would be the only son of the City Lord.

However, this method was a little difficult.

Yun Lin had been staying in the Hundred Flowers Palace. With Yun Shuang protecting him, ordinary a.s.sa.s.sins could not succeed.

Unless her brother personally took action, but it was obvious that her brother would not kill Yun Lin.

“I don’t believe he can hide in the Hundred Flowers Palace for the rest of his life!”

One evening, Jing Yi returned.

He came back alone with no Saintess behind him.

Nie Xiaozhu was playing with the three little ones in the courtyard. When he saw his former sidekick, he abandoned the phoenix and ran over.

He looked behind Jing Yi.

“Where is she?”

He asked.

Jing Yi asked, “Who is it?”

Nie Xiaozhu opened her mouth. “Nothing.”

He ran back to continue playing with the phoenix.

He touched the small bamboo tube in his arms.

This time, he had caught a powerful big guy. He would definitely scare her!

The three little ones called Jing Yi Brother crisply. Jing Yi responded to them and dragged his tired body to Su Xiaoxiao.

Wei Ting lay on the rattan chair and glanced at him. “Did you escape?”

Jing Yi looked at the unhappy Wei Ting. “Were you beaten up?”

Neither father nor son laughed at the other.

Jing Yi had actually caught up with the Saintess that day, but the Saintess refused to come back with him.

He followed her for many days.

Later on, he realized that the Saintess was walking straight into the sea and almost drowned. He used the sedative Su Xiaoxiao gave him.

However, halfway through bringing the Saintess back, she suddenly woke up and ran away.

He came back to see if the Saintess had run back to the Hundred Flowers Palace.

“She never came back.”

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head.

Jing Yi said, “I’ll look for her again.”

Su Xiaoxiao stopped Jing Yi. “There’s no need. Since she doesn’t want to stay by my side anymore, she’ll run away again.”

a.s.sa.s.sin Alliance.

Jiang Guanchao had also heard many rumors on the island recently, but he was not concerned about who the City Lord had taken a fancy to or if the other party would replace Madam Ru, but about Wei Xu’s situation.

“Duanmu Qi is still in the Hundred Flowers Palace.”

Fourth Senior Brother Chen Yu reported the information he had obtained to Jiang Guanchao.

You Ming asked, “Where’s the Rakshasa?”

Chen Yu said, “Third Senior Brother, he’s also in the Hundred Flowers Palace.”

Liu Zhen’er frowned and said, “The Hundred Flowers Palace is too disrespectful to our a.s.sa.s.sin Alliance! They know that Rakshasa is a traitor of the a.s.sa.s.sin Alliance, but they still dare to take him in! I think the Hundred Flowers Palace did it on purpose!”

Qi Yao thought for a moment and said, “Master, are we really not going to tell the City Lord Duanmu Qi’s true ident.i.ty?”

Jiang Guanchao smiled faintly. “He might not believe me even if I tell him. Yun Shuang is the City Lord’s sister-in-law. Her words are a hundred times more useful than ours. However, Wei Xu is too naive to think that he can rest easy by hiding in the Hundred Flowers Palace.”

Chen Yu asked excitedly, “Could it be that Master already has a good plan?”

Jiang Guanchao said unrestrainedly, “He dodged the full-month banquet. It won’t be so easy next.”

You Ming said to his senior brothers and sisters, “Let me make it clear first. The Rakshasa is mine.”

Unknowingly, September flew by and the island gradually turned cold. Su Xiaoxiao had to wrap herself in a windproof cloak when she went out.

Su Xiaoxiao brought Xing’er to the street to buy a few bolts of satin.

Xing’er lifted the curtain and looked at the endless crowd. “Miss, do you feel that there are suddenly many more people on the streets?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “It’s October. The thick fog has dispersed, and many islanders who went out have returned.”

Xing’er was enlightened. “I see.”

When the two of them returned to the Hundred Flowers Palace, they realized that Lu Aotian had come today.

He was not here to deliver news for Chu Feifeng. He was here to ask if the Hundred Flowers Palace would partic.i.p.ate in the triennial martial arts compet.i.tion.

“The disciples of the various sects have rushed back for the martial arts compet.i.tion!”

Su Xiaoxiao hummed.

So that was the reason why there were so many people on the streets.

Lu Aotian looked at the Palace Lord, Wei Xu, and Su Mo, Wei Ting, and Su Xiaoxiao on the left. “Are you going? The reward this year is very generous!”

The Palace Lord curled her lips.

The Hundred Flowers Palace was rich and overbearing. They would not fight to the death for a little bounty.

In the past, the Hundred Flowers Palace had never partic.i.p.ated and only attended the opening sacrificial ceremony.

The Palace Lord asked Wei Xu and the children, “Do you want to go?”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “I just want to take a look.”

Wei Ting asked, “Are you sure you’re just taking a look?”

Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes darted around. “It’s fine to fight a little.”

Wei Ting muttered, “I knew it!”

“What’s the bounty?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Lu Aotian said, “The first is the Dragon Roar Sword pa.s.sed down in the Xiahou family. It costs 10,000 taels of gold. The second is the Ancestor’s black iron treasured saber, which costs 5,000 taels of gold. The third is also the Xiahou family’s powerful weapon. Although there are no weapons in the fourth to tenth places, there is still gold to be taken.

“In addition, the top three have the chance to enter the library of the City Lord’s Mansion to choose a martial arts manual. The higher your ranking, the higher the floor you can go to, and the more precious the martial arts manual is.”

It did not matter if it was a martial arts manual. The main thing was gold.

Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up. “The first place actually has 10,000 taels of gold?”

Lu Aotian said, “Let’s not think about getting first place. It’s always been in the a.s.sa.s.sin Alliance’s pocket.”

“Other than martial arts manuals, is there anything else in the Library Pavilion?” Wei Ting asked.

Lu Aotian said, “Of course. There are so many books!”

Su Xiaoxiao asked Wei Ting softly, “Will there be the Xiahou family’s genealogy?”

Wei Ting said, “The possibility is very high.”

“You have to go.”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the door. “Granny?”

Granny Nie walked in. “If you want to resolve the backlash of the Rakshasa Secret Technique, you have to go to the Library Pavilion.”
