If audio player doesn't work, press Stop then Play button again




Yang Ranran really felt frustrated about offending someone powerful. Especially when he was already in a tough position and had been kept on a short leash by the Yang clan since they didn't want anymore trouble than this.

If he knew that Feng was backed by someone powerful enough to restrain him with ease and even know all about him, then he would have let go of the boy the very time he had caught him.

Feng on the other hand though was surprised and confused at the same time.

"My backing?" Feng said doubtfully.

"Yes, your backer has asked you to be freed." Yang Ranran replied.

Feng felt even more confused as to when this even happened and who the backer Yang Ranran was talking about.

'He directly brought me here and didn't talk to anyone else… could it be the senior?' Lin Wu was the only one Feng could think of as his backer.

But even if he was a backer, Feng didn't know how he had gotten Yang Ranran to let him go when the two of them didn't even talk at all. The anger he had been feeling all this time faded away into confusion.

This was partly because he could see a hint of fear on Yang Ranran's face. This was not present before and only appeared once he had talked to him.

After a minute, Feng determine that it was probably Lin Wu who had done this.

'Senior is even more mysterious than I thought. He could get someone to listen to him like this without even others knowing.' The awe in Feng's heart for Lin Wu increased even more.

Hours went by and Feng waited patiently in the study. Yang Ranran was also there, but the man busied himself in some work. He was going through many documents that were piled onto his desk and writing some of his own.

Feng didn't want to interact with the man anymore than needed, thus didn't talk to him. He was quite angry at the man internally. After all, he won't be forgiving Yang Ranran this easily. He would wait for the right time to have his revenge.

A hint of coldness appeared in Feng's eyes, and an imperceptible aura was born within him.

Yang Ranran shivered unconsciously at that moment.

'Is that person still observing me?' Yang Ranran thought that it was Lin Wu who might have caused this.

Thankfully, the feeling only lasted for a moment before fading away, which made Yang Ranran think that Lin Wu might just be checking in. With the feeling gone, Yang Ranran focused on the work.

He was after all, still a commander and had to make a comprehensive report about all that he had discovered during his investigation. Of course, he would avoid mentioning certain topics, but it was still going to be a long report for him to write.

Time went by quickly and without Feng saying anything, Yang Ranran also didn't when it was already daytime.

~Cling~

A small bell that was kept on the desk suddenly rang, pulling Yang Ranran's attention.

Seeing it, the man frowned before standing up.

"You should leave now," Yang Ranran said before pushing a shelf aside, revealing a small door. "Go through here, it'll take you to the sixth district."

Feng stood up without a word and left the study. Yang Ranran looked at his back with a strange expression.

'Something feels different about him…' Yang Ranran thought, but couldn't place his finger on it.

Feng didn't care about what the man thought. After all for him, Yang Ranran was someone that would be one day dead. Whether under his hand or others, it didn't matter.

"If senior really saved me, then he must be watching somehow. I should find a place and wait for him to contact me, like he said he would." Feng muttered to himself as he ran through the underground tunnel.

The tunnel wasn't that wide and only a single person could pass though it at once. There was no water in here at least, but the floor was made out of dirt. It was evident that this tunnel might have been made recently.

Upon reaching the end, Feng found himself on a dead end.

"No, wait… there's a hatch." Feng discovered a square wooden plate on the top.

Tapping on it, he found it to be firmly stuck but once a little force was exerted, the plate rose. It was heavy for some reason, and only when it was fully pushed away did Feng discover why.

"Right under a paved alley…" Feng checked his location.

The opening from where Feng had come out was dug into the ground and the wooden plate covered it. The plate was then covered with the same stone blocks that paved the roads of the city. This hid it very well and no one would expect there to be a secret entrance here.

Leaving the small alley, Feng found himself in the sixth district, just as Yang Ranran had said.

"Go half a kilometer to the east and the take a right from the noodle stall there. You'll find an old shop with a broken window on the side." Feng suddenly heard a voice in his mind.

"Senior?" Feng muttered. "I'm coming." He quickly said before running.

The sixth district was a small district and was mostly composed of lower end shops and stalls. It was a lot better than the slums, but was evidential a lower class area. Even so, there were quite a few people here.

'This should be the noodle stall…' Feng saw a small stall with a woman selling some noodles.

And next to it, there was another road. Taking that path, Feng soon found the old shop that he had been told about.

"This place is closed down." Feng noticed the door was nailed shut.

Peeking to the side, he found the broken window just as Lin Wu had told him. He checked to see if anyone was watching him and climbed in once he was sure no one did.
