"Chan River?"

Upon hearing what Wanwan said, Qu Feiyan quickly took out the map of the Tang Dynasty from her bosom.

Before Qu Feiyan could even open it, Wanwan rolled her eyes and said, "Don't bother looking. The Chan River is a tributary of the Ba River, flowing through the east of Chang'an City. There are no fewer than a hundred flower boats of various sizes moored along its banks. The river is filled with painted boats, and people stay up all night."

Chu Qinghe laughed and said, "As expected of the sect leader of the Yin Kui Sect, you are so thoughtful."

Faced with Chu Qinghe's praise, Wanwan raised her chin slightly and then said, "We'll move to the house that Yin Kui Sect bought in the east of the city first. When Master arrives in a couple of days, he'll be able to find our place."

Seeing this, Chu Qinghe suddenly asked, "How many people does your Yin Kui Sect have in this stronghold?"

Although she didn't understand why Chu Qinghe suddenly asked this question, Wanwan still replied, "There are always at least two people in each of my Yin Kui Sect's strongholds, so that we can supervise each other. There are exactly two people in this stronghold."

Chu Qinghe nodded and said, "In that case, after you pass the message to your master, just make some arrangements for everyone in your stronghold to leave Chang'an!"

"Withdraw from the outpost?"

Wanwan paused for a moment, as if she didn't understand what Chu Qinghe meant.

But the next second, as if she had realized something, Wanwan's expression instantly became serious.

"You mean this outpost has been targeted?"

Chu Qinghe nodded and said, "Yes! When we first entered, the location was quite secluded, not like what you said, that it was someone from inside the market."

Wanwan asked, "The Bad People?"

Chu Qinghe shook his head and said, "There are quite a few people, and they are in different locations. At least three different forces are watching them."

Hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Wanwan's solemn expression only deepened.

Knowing it wasn't safe at the moment, Wanwan didn't think much of it. After nodding, she turned and walked towards the door.

After a short while, once they came out of the rouge shop, Wanwan asked, "Where to next?"

Chu Qinghe said, "Since this is my first time in Chang'an, let's take a look around first!"

After saying that, Chu Qinghe casually chose a direction and left.

The girls didn't pay any attention to this and followed Chu Qinghe as they walked away into the distance.

As Chu Qinghe and his group set off, a man dressed in ordinary clothes suddenly spoke from a window diagonally opposite the rouge shop: "They're leaving, hurry up and catch up."

At the same time, several other figures mingled among the crowd on the street, subtly moving in the direction where Chu Qinghe and his group had gone.

An hour later, as Chu Qinghe and his group arrived at Yanshoufang in Chang'an City, Wanwan glanced behind them discreetly. After her gaze swept over the figures that had been following them for nearly half an hour, about ten feet away, she looked away and asked, "When did you discover these three groups of people?"

Chu Qinghe said slowly, "When we arrived at the entrance of that rouge shop just now, their eyes were fixed on us, so they were easy to spot."

Even with the sixth sense of the three women, Dongfang Bubai, it would be easy to perceive these gazes, let alone Chu Qinghe, who had successfully condensed the Three Flowers.

When these people's eyes fell on him, he naturally noticed it immediately.

Seeing this, Wanwan asked, "What about the tails at the back?"

Chu Qinghe slowly said, "In this territory of Chang'an, even if we kill these people, others will come later, unless we find a place now to disguise ourselves and split up."

Wanwan nodded and said, "Then let's do it this way."

Chu Qinghe said with a hint of helplessness, "I'm alone. What if the Bad Guys suddenly attack the other team if we split up? Besides, the carriage and luggage are still at the carriage shop."

After thinking for a moment, Wanwan sighed and said, "So we're just going to ignore the people behind us?"

Chu Qinghe said calmly, "Just pretend they don't exist. There's no need to expose ourselves yet. These people are watching us, and we can learn which three forces they are by observing their movements."

Upon hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Wanwan abandoned her plan to attack those people and instead frowned slightly.

"There are five strongholds of my Yin Kui Sect in Chang'an City, and this one is relatively hidden. Even those in the Yin Kui Sect who know about it must be at least elders. Now that this stronghold has been leaked, could it be that one of our elders leaked the location of the stronghold?"

After muttering this sentence, Wanwan tilted her head slightly again.

"But if the information was leaked, why would all three forces know about it and be watching that stronghold together? Or are these three forces sharing information?"

"Furthermore, the wax patterns around the bamboo tube have not been broken, which means that these three forces are still unaware that Master and the others will arrive in Chang'an in two days."

"But if that's the case, now that you've discovered my Yin Kui Sect's stronghold, why aren't you eliminating it? Are you trying to use this stronghold to lure in bigger fish in the long run?"

After some thought, Wanwan looked at Chu Qinghe suspiciously, as if she had thought of something, and said, "Wait, why are your reactions so calm? Could it be that you had already anticipated this?"

Hearing Wanwan's question, Chu Qinghe chuckled inwardly.

As the Holy Maiden of the Yin Kui Sect, Wanwan is indeed intelligent and quick-witted, no less so than the three women of Dongfang Bubai.

Chu Qinghe said, "The Bad People are far beyond the reach of ordinary top-tier forces. Their existence time is unknown, and they may remain hidden in the shadows. Not to mention your Yin Kui Sect, other forces in the Tang Dynasty may have Bad People leaders."

"As far as the Bad Commander is concerned, he may know all the strongholds of your Yin Kui Sect in Chang'an very well."
