Chapter 1874 - 438: Night Raid on the Prime Minister’s Mansion (Part 4)
At this moment, the sentinel was seriously keeping watch, his eyes scanning the surroundings. Just as he turned around, Zhang Dingbian suddenly appeared behind him, expertly covered the sentinel’s mouth, and then slit his throat with a knife.Mmmm...
The sentinel didn’t even have time to let out a sound before his body collapsed limply to the ground.
Zhang Dingbian immediately lowered the body.
That took care of the soldiers on this side, while on the other side, Kang Maocai arrived at the sentinel. Just as he was about to make a move, he suddenly saw the soldier abruptly turn, locking eyes with Kang Maocai.
Kang Maocai was instantly stunned. If he wanted to act, it was bound to make noise. While he was panicking, a stone projectile suddenly shot directly at the sentinel’s throat.
Pop!
Instantly, the sentinel seemed immobilized, as if an acupoint had been struck. Kang Maocai realized what had happened and quickly approached to end the sentinel’s life with a knife.
After he finished, he looked toward Zhang Dingbian, his face full of gratitude, thinking it was Zhang Dingbian who had saved him with that stone.
Just then, Zhang Dingbian also turned his head, seeing Kang Maocai looking at him, unsure of the situation, thinking Kang Maocai was telling him he completed the kill.
He gently nodded toward Kang Maocai, and Kang Maocai thought Zhang Dingbian was confirming his thoughts, so he nodded in return, and the two prepared to proceed to attack the next corner towers.
Meanwhile, Chen Jie, hidden in the shadows, shook his head as he watched. Kang Maocai wasn’t even worthy to carry his senior brother’s shoes!
If it weren’t for himself just now, these two would have been exposed.
Thinking this, Chen Jie shook his head and then directly charged into Tuotuo’s mansion. This time, he wasn’t here for revenge against Tuotuo; he was looking for his old father-in-law, Ruyang King.
With this in mind, Chen Jie transformed into a fleeting shadow and entered Tuotuo’s mansion. Since Ruyang King had been deceived into the city and imprisoned, where could he be held?
Chen Jie and Zhao Ya analyzed the possibilities — no more than three places. The first being Tuotuo’s Prime Minister’s Mansion, the second, the Heavenly Prison, and the third, if it were the third place, that’s difficult — it would be the Great Buddha Temple where Living Buddha Basiba resides.
Actually, if Ruyang King is held in the first two places, it’s manageable; the most difficult is the Great Buddha Temple.
After all, arriving there means potentially facing the Fire Buddha of this era, Basiba of the Land Immortal Realm, and that pressure is like a mountain!
Of course, it’s just a possibility, and it’s also possible that Tuotuo didn’t place Ruyang King in the Great Buddha Temple. He might have just confidently put him in the Prime Minister’s Mansion, which would make rescuing his father-in-law not as difficult.
Thinking this, Chen Jie quickly vanished into the night.
Tonight was actually a great opportunity; with Zhang Dingbian and Kang Maocai causing a scene at the front, nobody would pay attention to the other areas of the yard, allowing him to search safely.
It was practically a heaven-sent opportunity; Chen Jie wouldn’t waste such a good chance.
Thus, Chen Jie began searching in the backyard of Tuotuo’s mansion. With Chen Jie’s Melt God Realm prowess, trying to find something quietly meant it would be difficult for others to detect his presence, unless a Heavenly List Strong Person randomly decided to keep an eye on him, but how could a Heavenly List Strong Person be idly watching him?
As Chen Jie thought, he searched room by room, and then he found a room with lights blazing inside. Chen Jie pierced through the window paper with his gaze, and what he saw froze him.
"Why are they here?"
