Chapter 259 A mysterious commission from Chang'an



After determining the destination, the three of them quickened their pace and took a shortcut towards Qingyang City.

Not long after, a group of men in black arrived at the spot where the three men had stopped to rest. One of them got down on the ground and poked at the dirt. He then looked up and said, "Sir, there are traces of footprints. Three people."

"Chase! That princess, we must not let her leave Jiangnan alive."

The several internal force pills extracted from Jiang Taicang really brought great help to Qin Yuesheng, allowing him to take a big step towards the threshold of the seventh level of internal force.

When reaching the sixth level of the internal strength realm, the amount of internal strength required to improve further is extremely huge, so even for Qin Yuesheng, the speed of improving his strength can't help but slow down.

If you want to break this deadlock, there is only one thing to do: kill, kill more masters of internal force.

Today is the day when the Tai Sui League members return to Qingyang City to report intelligence. At the same time, Qin Yuesheng also has to help them relieve the icy power of the Life and Death Ice Talisman.

So Qin Yuesheng booked a room in the best teahouse in Qingyang City, ordered a cup of tea and waited for the arrival of the Tai Sui League leaders.

Today in the teahouse, the storyteller on the first floor is telling the story of "The former dynasty hero Jiangkouhu's battle with the pirate king of the East China Sea".

It is said that in the previous dynasty, the pirates in the East China Sea were wreaking havoc so severely that many heroes could not bear to see the coastal people suffer, so they took the initiative to go to the East China Sea to kill the pirates. During that period, many stories about heroes defeating pirates were circulated.

Of course, if you tell stories with similar themes too many times, it will naturally become boring, so nowadays there are very few storytellers who tell those old-fashioned stories.

Qin Yuesheng was bored, so he sat by the window and looked downstairs. Calculating the time, he thought it was almost time for people from the Tai Sui Alliance to come over.

A man and a woman who didn't look like a couple walked in from outside the teahouse. They had ordinary looks and figures, and they didn't look very eye-catching.

The woman was holding the hand of a young girl. In such hot weather, this person had a blue silk scarf hanging on her face, covering most of her face, which immediately created a huge contrast with the others.

The three of them found a secluded corner and sat down, looking extremely low-key.

"Linghua, do you know where that adult lives?" the man asked in a low voice.

"Lord Zuo told me that the gentleman's surname is Qin. We should be able to find out by asking the governor of this city." Linghua turned to the young girl and said in a very low voice, "Princess, I'm really sorry for all the hardship you've endured along the way.

The girl said, "Aunt Linghua, please don't say that. You and Uncle Dongzhou took the trouble to escort me all the way from Chang'an to here, allowing me to escape a disaster. I am already very grateful to you two. What is a little hardship?"

"Dear guests, what would you like to order?" The waiter walked to the table and asked cheerfully.

Dong Zhou said calmly, "White flour buns, Yangchun noodles, tea, and red bean cakes."

"Okay." The waiter put the towel on his shoulders and immediately turned around and ran to the back hall.

"Although we have arrived in Qingyang City, we still have to be cautious before meeting that master. We have already made it through ninety-nine steps, and we must not let carelessness lead to failure at this last step."

Linghua said, "The current situation is special. Even the officials of the Bronze Toad may not be able to protect the princess. We are only entrusting that gentleman as a target for assessment. If he fails, even if we continue to take the princess on the road, we cannot let her stay here."

Dong Zhou nodded: "That's natural."

Qin Yuesheng naturally didn't care about the whispers of these three people. His eyes were fixed on the door of the teahouse.

Not long after, a big man came in carrying a goat with its front and hind legs tied with red ropes.

When Qin Yuesheng saw this person, his eyes suddenly lit up. His memory was pretty good, and he was able to recognize that this person was a member of the Tai Sui League. His name seemed to be Tang Heng.

"He came and even brought a live sheep as a gift. This guy is really interesting." Qin Yuesheng shook his head with amusement.

Tang Heng had just walked a few steps into the teahouse when Qin Yuesheng saw a group of men in black suddenly rushing in from behind him.

The man in the lead was very domineering. Without saying anything like "make way", he just pushed Tang Heng away with his shoulder and pushed him to the side.

Regardless of the occasion, this is an extremely provocative and contemptuous act.

As a bandit himself, Tang Heng couldn't stand being treated like this. Without a second thought, he shouted, "Go ahead and hit your dad! Do you have eyes in your head? You must have your eyeballs stuck in your ass. You can't even see someone walking."

The man in black who bumped into Tang Heng suddenly had a fierce light flashing in his eyes, staring at Tang Heng with murderous intent on his face.

Qin Yuesheng saw him reach out and grasp the scabbard, with the intention of taking action if they had a disagreement.

But at this moment, a man in black suddenly said, "Captain, I think I've spotted the princess. There are three people over there."

"Huh?" The black-clad man who bumped into Tang Heng turned his head and looked over, laughing: "That's them, hahahaha, they've done a great deed this time, brothers, get started, let's finish this quickly."

Tang Heng was about to curse a few more times when he suddenly heard a few swish sounds and the group of men in black all drew their steel knives from their sheaths.

Tang Heng was stunned for a moment, and quickly kept silent. He silently carried his sheep and retreated to the wall and stood there obediently.
