Xiao Feng transmigrated and became a rich second-generation master. The original owner didn't cultivate and only knew how to grovel before his junior sister, ultimately dying of frustration.
As night fell, Xiao Feng changed into a set of night clothes and came out of the tavern.
The tavern had never had much business, so it was a bit strange that General Mingyue had sent people to his tavern to buy things.
For some reason, he always felt that General Mingyue had some feelings for him.
Xiao Feng arrived at the entrance of the General's Mansion under the cover of night. He glanced at the entrance and saw that there were many guards patrolling back and forth.
He knew that the general's mansion must be heavily guarded, and that approaching it rashly might be discovered by the patrolling guards.
Although he had no fear of these ordinary people, they realized that their position could only bring them trouble.
In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he arrived at the wall and flipped over to land inside.
Just as he had guessed, there were many guards walking around inside the general's mansion, and the security was very tight.
Xiao Feng took a deep breath and spread his spiritual power outwards, as finding the general's location as quickly as possible was the most important thing.
Before long, he suddenly looked in one direction inside the general's mansion: "Strange, why do I feel that the aura is so familiar? It's like I've seen it somewhere before."
There aren't many dishes that he can sense as familiar as this one, but this one is definitely very familiar, as if we just met a few days ago.
The disciples of the Qing Sect certainly wouldn't appear in such a place without a reason, and Xiao Feng's heart was already in his throat.
Just then, the patrol team was handing over duties.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Feng transformed into a blue shadow and entered the room, hiding at the door of the general's bedroom and glancing inside.
"bath?"
In his view, since both of them were men, their intrusion wouldn't have much of an impact.
Xiao Feng gently pushed open the door to the room, and in a flash, he landed behind a screen, intending to see who was inside.
As soon as he poked his head out, he was immediately shocked by what he saw and didn't react for a long time.
In his mind, the person in front of him was very likely a general covered in scars.
No one expected that the person who came into his view was the woman he had met at the tavern during the day.
Because of a slight fluctuation in the spiritual energy within Xiao Feng's body, the woman immediately sensed something was wrong and stood up from the bathtub: "Who is it?"
Xiao Feng quickly covered his eyes: "It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding."
At this moment, the fog in the room gradually spread, making it impossible for either of them to see each other's faces.
Xiao Feng realized that the woman had not recognized his identity and decided to leave.
However, he had only just reached the doorway when the woman swung her longsword down.
If his hand had been on the door just now, she would have chopped it off by now.
Xiao Feng sighed with a helpless expression, "I never expected this woman to be so terrifying. Luckily, I didn't fight her head-on."
Since the main gate was blocked, Xiao Feng focused his attention on the window, intending to leave through it.
However, just as he landed on the windowsill, a voice came from behind him: "Trying to leave? Stay here."
The woman's long sword flew over and circled around Xiao Feng.
Despite her seemingly low overall strength, she is a first-rate expert in sword control.
Xiao Feng dared not be presumptuous. He took two steps back and sneered, "I won't fight you. Let me leave here."
Hearing that Xiao Feng wanted to leave, Mingyue Duoduo didn't take his words to heart at all and charged forward with her long sword in hand.
The two fought inside the room, and the guards at the door heard the sound of weapons clashing inside and came to the door one by one.
One of the soldiers shouted loudly into the room, "General Mingyue, are there thieves inside?"
Hearing her trusted confidante's voice, Mingyue Duoduo also cried out, "You can't come in!"
Now, she is completely naked, and her confidants can see everything as soon as they enter.
Xiao Feng laughed loudly upon hearing Mingyue Duoduo's shy voice: "With your strength, you are no match for me at all. Let me leave here. It's all a misunderstanding."
Mingyue Duoduo looked at the blurry figure and snorted coldly: "Misunderstanding? Sneaking into the General's Mansion in the dead of night, I don't think it's a misunderstanding. I'll spare your life."
After the words were spoken, the two clashed again.
The guards at the door understood Mingyue Duoduo's meaning and glanced at the guards around them: "Everyone, surround the house and do not allow anyone to leave here."
The guards exchanged glances, then grabbed their weapons and went to the front of the house, completely blocking the people inside.
As Xiao Feng watched the torches outside the door grow brighter and brighter, he realized he had to leave as soon as possible.
Otherwise, once Mingyue Duoduo puts on her clothes, her next step will be her doom, and he cannot accept such a result.
Just then, Mingyue Duoduo seemed to realize something and glanced in Xiao Feng's direction: "Why do I feel that your aura is so familiar? Do you know the tavern owner?"
Upon hearing Mingyue Duoduo reveal her identity, Xiao Feng sighed helplessly, "Put your clothes on first, I'll wait for you here."
Mingyue Duoduo returned to the bathtub, put on her armor, and went back to Xiao Feng.
Because the room was filled with fog, neither of them could see each other's faces clearly.
Xiao Feng pointed to the candles beside him: "Why don't we light the candles first, so we can see the other person's face clearly?"
After Xiao Feng's reminder, Mingyue Duoduo readily agreed, lit a candle nearby, and immediately recognized Xiao Feng's identity.
She looked at Xiao Feng with surprise and asked, "Why are you here? Are you trying to assassinate me?"
Xiao Feng listened to Mingyue Duoduo's wary words and found a place to sit down: "If I wanted to kill you, I had the best opportunity yesterday."
She was unconscious in the tavern yesterday. Killing her would only require a single sword strike; no fancy maneuvers would be necessary.
When Mingyue Duoduo heard Xiao Feng's voice, she nodded with an embarrassed expression: "Indeed, if you hadn't saved me yesterday, I would have certainly died."
At this moment, both of them realized they had made a fool of themselves and sat down on the stools somewhat embarrassed.
Worried that Mingyue Duoduo might misunderstand him, Xiao Feng quickly explained, "From what I understand, you brought quite a few people to my tavern to buy wine during the day."
Mingyue Duoduo nodded slightly, readily admitting it, and glanced at Xiao Feng: "Your tavern business isn't good, so I'll have someone buy wine so you can make money."
That was her original intention; no one expected that the two of them would almost kill each other because of a misunderstanding.
Xiao Feng thought he was no longer a suspect, but no one expected Mingyue Duoduo to give him a meaningful look: "You shouldn't just be the tavern owner, right?"
