Martial Peak

“Don’t take it so seriously, Sir,” the young man grinned, “I didn’t mean to scold you. Alright, alright, I really need to buy something from this shop. Can you please let me in?”

It was uncertain if the casual words of the young man had some kind of magic in them, but after a short pause, the head guard actually made way for the couple.

The other City Lord’s Mansion guards were looking at their Commander in bewilderment, secretly questioning his decision but they dared not speak out.

“What the hell!?” The Third-Order Dao Source Realm cultivator, who was monitoring Azure Sun Pavilion from the nearby teahouse, jumped up in anger. He immediately released his Divine Sense towards the Commander, and condemned, “What’s wrong with you?”

“Sir Jia!” The Commander’s face turned solemn after receiving the voice transmission.

“Didn’t I tell you not to let anyone in? How dare you disobey this King’s order!”

“I allowed someone in?” The Commander was shocked and soon, he remembered what he had just done. Wiping the cold sweat on his forehead as his face turned pale, he mumbled, “How could I have let someone in…”

He had no idea what happened just now. Although he was clear-headed, he could not resist the young man’s request and obediently made way for the young man to enter Azure Sun Pavilion.

If it were not for Sir Jia’s voice transmission, he probably would not be able to recall his actions.

“A Soul Technique!” Seeing the Commander’s complexion, Sir Jia immediately deduced that he was affected by some kind of Soul Technique, which led him to act involuntarily.

“Sir Jia, what should we do now? Should this subordinate bring the team in and capture that man?” The Commander asked.

“Calm down. That man seems to be very strong. We don’t know his purpose for coming here yet. Perhaps, he really just wanted to buy something. Let’s continue to observe.” Sir Jia replied.

“Yes!”

While Yang Kai and Zhang Ruo Xi were inside the shop, they looked around and found that it was truly small, with few goods on sale. The goods did not seem to be valuable and were messily placed around the shelves.

Two shop-hands, who had low cultivation, were sitting near the counter. They looked aggrieved, as if they had just lost their parents, and occasionally glanced at the guards outside, “It’s over, it’s over,” one shop-hands mumbled, “What trouble did Shopkeeper cause? It’s really over now!”

The two shop-hands were extremely nervous and did not even notice that Yang Kai and Zhang Ruo Xi had entered the shop.

After taking a brief glance at them, Yang Kai turned to the rear of the shop and headed straight towards the backyard, completely ignoring them.

After passing a corridor, Yang Kai arrived at a small garden. He proceeded further until he reached a certain room. He stood in front of the room and knocked at the door gently.

“Who!?” A woman’s voice called out, one that sounded dreadfully exhausted, as if she had not slept for many days.
