Martial Peak

Chapter 4823

One day, Yang Kai was wielding a sword and a saber in the courtyard when the Captain of the private guards entered the place.

Upon hearing the noise, Yin Zhi Yong quickly got out of the room and asked passionately, “Big Brother Chu, why are you here?”

The Captain was surnamed Chu, so the private guards would call him Big Brother Chu in private.

Big Brother Chu replied with a smile, “What’s wrong? Can’t I visit you two without any important matter? Have you forgotten about us just because you’ve made some contributions now? Are you looking down on us?”

Yin Zhi Yong put on a bitter expression as he said, “What are you talking about, Big Brother Chu? It’s thanks to your guidance over the years that I’ve had a chance to make a contribution. I would never dare to look down on you all.”

Big Brother Chu extended his hand and poked him, “You’re such a smooth talker, aren’t you?” All of a sudden, he put on a solemn expression and changed the topic, “Anyways, there’s indeed an important matter now.”

Yin Zhi Yong quickly said, “Please tell us right away, Big Brother Chu.”

Big Brother Chu turned to look at Yang Kai, “How are you feeling?”

Yang Kai moved his shoulders a little, “I’m fine.”

“Good. I was worried that you wouldn’t be able to take on this task.”

Yin Zhi Yong asked with concern, “What kind of task is that?”

Big Brother Chu put on a mysterious smile, “It’s not bad news. Something good awaits you. Come with me.”

After exchanging glances with Yin Zhi Yong, Yang Kai sheathed his weapons as they followed the Captain.

As they navigated through the Meng Manor behind Big Brother Chu, they soon arrived at a Grand Hall. In front of the Grand Hall stood an old man with a goatee. He was the chief steward of the Meng Manor. Seeing Captain Chu, he nodded gently.

Yin Zhi Yong suddenly felt his legs trembling slightly, for he finally recognised this Grand Hall.

Although he had been working in the Meng Manor for more than ten years, he had never had the right to come to such an important place as he was just an outer court’s private guard.

“Captain…” Yin Zhi Yong looked inquisitively at the Captain in the hope that he would be given a hint.

Big Brother Chu muttered quietly, “Don’t say anything unnecessary after going in.”

Yin Zhi Yong nodded repeatedly.
