Consider it disrespectful to walk blatantly into the Thousand Yuan Dynasty as one of their most wanted criminals. He knew some disguise was necessary.
Soon, Jiang Xiaobai put on a human skin mask over his face, a trick that AnRan got him. AnRan’s ability to come up with such a technique had Jiang Xiaobai suspecting that AnRan had the potential to be a pretty good bandit.
In fact, AnRan might just be born for the bandit life.
Even AnRan himself thought so. He came up with a name for their little duo, the Bandit Duo.
Once they entered Four Seas City, AnRan started to show signs of fatigue. This little fatty had been living the life of Riley for centuries, never having had to rough it out.
Yes, traveling with Jiang Xiaobai meant there was good food and a pleasant journey but in the end, it was a little too much for the chubby kid.
Upon entering Four Seas City, AnRan immediately dashed for the top restaurant, Tianxiang Building.
“Jiang Bai, let me tell you something, the most famous restaurant here in Four Seas City is Tianxiang Building. Not only is the food delicious and the service impeccable, but the iron lady proprietor is truly delightful.”
Little shiny beams were flickering in AnRan’s beady eyes, “Her figure, her beauty, oh boy, it’s just irresistible!”
Jiang Xiaobai was taken aback knowing this chubby kid could think in such a way.
However, this time, Tianxiang Building was actually Jiang Xiaobai’s ultimate destination, since he’s been in the central region for almost a month and didn’t have much time to come here.
He needed to cultivate the Qian Family and without the cleansing pill, the Qian Family’s growth would no doubt be sluggish.
One should never doubt AnRan’s wealth as he immediately booked the top room in the Tianxiang Building. Although it wasn’t as grand as Jiang Xiaobai’s room, the exclusivity of that room was a symbol of one’s status.
Upon entering the room, AnRan was yapping about taking a bath and resting while Jiang Xiaobai was planning to get some things done during that time.
He left the Tianxiang Building, found a discreet location, and subsequently transformed into Ironface. He was dressed in a black robe, wearing a black iron mask, and directly sought out the Iron Dance Lady.
“Sir, you’re finally here!”
Seeing Jiang Xiaobai, the Iron Dance Lady looked somewhat aggrieved, “The young master has been pestering me several times. If he didn’t know you were unpredictable, he would have suspected that I had pocketed those pills.”
Jiang Xiaobai ignored the coquettish Iron Dance Lady before him and brought out a pile of cleansing pills. The quantity was as much as what he had previously brought in two months, enough for the Qian Family to use for a while.
“Anything noteworthy happen in Four Seas City recently?” Jiang Xiaobai asked casually.
Then, the Iron Dance Lady respectfully briefed Jiang Xiaobai on what had been happening in Four Seas City recently, which included his annihilation of the lord’s mansion in Four Seas City, and this incident was still a hot topic.
The main reason being that this incident was utterly mind-boggling, Jiang Xiaobai’s behavior was akin to directly opposing the Thousand Yuan Dynasty, a clear path to certain death. No one had dared to do such a thing in centuries.
Moreover, the enormous bounty also kept the news alive. Hence, there were barely any people in Four Seas City who were unaware of this incident.
“But, that coincidentally appearing Jiang Bai, he’s really a troublemaker. Now, the Qin Family’s pretty much destroyed because of him.” The Iron Dance Lady shook her head and sighed.
“Oh? How is this affair related to the Qin Family?” Jiang Xiaobai wondered aloud.
“Actually, at the root it isn’t really related, but the problem is, Jiang Bai had some affiliation with the Qin Family. As a result, the share of spirit stone mine that the Qin Family spent so much money on got swallowed by the Thousand Yuan Dynasty with a single sentence.” The Iron Dance Lady rested her chin in her hands, grinning from ear to ear.
Underneath his mask, Jiang Xiaobai squinted a little, this would probably give the Qin Family a huge blow. And according to the Iron Dance Lady, the Thousand Yuan Dynasty was still investigating the Qin Family, even attempting to use them to force Jiang Bai to show himself.
Even though the Qin Family had fallen into this calamity because of him, Jiang Xiaobai might not be the best person but he couldn’t just turn a blind eye.
Since the Thousand Yuan Dynasty had swallowed the Qin Family’s share, then…
“Collect any strange and interesting stories from the Central region for me.”
Jiang Xiaobai said to the Iron Dance Lady, meanwhile taking out a jade slip, “This, deliver it to Qian Mu along with the pills.”
“Yes, sir!”
The Iron Dance Lady sauntered out of the room, returned after a while with a jade slip and a storage ring, Jiang Xiaobai left Tianxiang Building after receiving these items without delay.
After strolling around for a bit, Jiang Xiaobai returned to their room with his human skin mask intact, to find AnRan eating heartily, with his mouth and face smeared with grease.
“Finally you’re back, Jiang Bai! I was looking for you!” AnRan eagerly blurted out, “Guess what, there’s a grand banquet in Four Seas City tonight! It’s said that the new lord is hosting it! Not only is he throwing a feast, it seems like they want to discuss how to catch you.”
While speaking, AnRan seemed quite thrilled about it.
“Really? Then I must see this.” Jiang Xiaobai chimed in excitedly.
As he was now at odds with the Thousand Yuan Dynasty, they would definitely not let him off the hook. So, now if there’s a chance to sabotage them even a bit he would take it. Even if he can’t sabotage, making their lives a bit miserable works for him.
The moment AnRan heard Jiang Xiaobai’s response, a mysterious smirk spread across his face. With a flip of his wrist, two invitations appeared in his hand.
“I knew you wouldn’t let it go that easily. I had already asked someone to prepare these.”
Jiang Xiaobai was surprised by AnRan’s preparation, feeling a pang of guilt for corrupting him.
With the invitations, their targets were clear. AnRan wanted to go out for some fun, create a diversion if possible, while Jiang Xiaobai had only one thing in mind, to create havoc!
How could he not stir things up at such a grand banquet! Not utilizing this opportunity would be a shame considering the enormous bounty of eighty million top-grade spirit stones put on him by the Thousand Yuan Dynasty.
Once they were ready, they each put on a human skin mask. AnRan made himself appear even fatter, it’s a wonder how he managed that.
With everything in place and as evening fell, the lord’s mansion was extremely lively that night with the arrival of the new lord. The various factions within the Four Seas City were all there to show their respect.
It was beneficial to build good relationships with the new lord.
It’s worth mentioning that both the Qin Family and the Liu Family were among those invited. They simply couldn’t decline the invite, especially the Qin Family who had already suffered a loss due to the previous incident. If they missed this occasion and the new lord held grudges against them, there would be no point for the Qin Family to stay in Four Seas City.
Inside the lord’s mansion, Qin Zheng didn’t look pleased at all. Standing next to him, Qin Nianxue also wore a cold expression. That’s because the father-son duo of the Liu Family and the man in the black robe were standing in front of them.
What’s worse, sandwiched between the two groups of forces was the new lord..
