Du Chuxuan didn’t bother with the big guy. The house wasn’t very big, for it was just a simple accommodation. Apart from the bedroom, there was only a small side hall, with the addition of a small kitchen and a latrine.

He knocked around carefully, but found nothing.

Luo Er followed with a slight shake of his head. He also took a look around the place and there was no place to hide.

Only when he turned around in annoyance did Du Chuxuan focus his attention on the big guy. “Where the hell have you been hiding?” If Yuxing Tianrui was near at this time he would have noticed that though Du Chuxuan was smiling, there was not a trace of amusement in his words. This was a Du Chuxuan he had never seen before.

Even a clay man had a temper, and that big guy snorted, “You are the one who barged into my place in the middle of the night. I should be the one who asks what exactly you are doing. Don’t you try to accuse me of something first.”

To Du Chuxuan’s ears, that was undoubtedly a provocation. With a flick of his fingers, he snapped open the folding fan, along with which the blades emerged. It glistened under the moonlight, which appeared to be colder. “My patience is limited. If you won’t speak, I’ll pick off your tendons.”

Luo Er couldn’t help but turn to Du Chuxuan. Although he hadn’t known this man for long, he could tell Du Chuxuan wasn’t a person who liked trouble, besides, he didn’t even love power or riches from a certain aspect because of his family.

Such a person should have been at peace with the world now became a totally different person for for the sake of His Highness won Luo Er’s loyalty.

“You!” The big man was in anger. Now he was a fish on the chopping block, at the mercy of a martial arts master hand, and he couldn’t flee even if he wanted to. Besides, even if he didn’t know the boy before, he knew he was Lord of Sect Luo now.

Even if he was lucky enough to escape today, he would never be able to live in peace afterwards. The man was not stupid. When he thought it through, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness in addition to annoyance.

Suppressing his anger with a lot of effort, he spoke calmly, “I have no idea what you are talking about. I’ve simply arrived minutes before you did. Besides, you guys haven’t even told me what you’re looking for since you entered. How am I goanna answer your question?”

Hearing that, Dou Chuxuan’s brows knitted slightly. Dodo never failed. He knew Yuxing Tiantui was here. It was only a matter of time before he found him. With a wave of his hand, he gestured at Luo Er and the others to move, all of whom knew what to do.

The men of Sect Luo were extremely quick. Since there was nothing in the house, they started searching the yard. There were even some who directly blew that house down, afraid of missing the slightest trace of clue.

Arms across, Du Chuxuan watched them with his head running fast. As the searched went, he became more uneasy. A hidden hint of reason told him that the person who had taken Yuxing Tianrui would want more from him that this.

Besides, the big guy’s place was chosen. Was this really just an coincidence? Thinking about it, Du Chuxuan set his eyes on the man.

Not long afterwards, a fire came from the distance, and in an instant, Du Chuxuan realized what it was. He had been led by the nose from the moment he discovered Yuxing Tianrui was missing. Everything else aside, now that he was here, he definitely committed trespassing. The person behind this was good at scheming, though.

After a moment of argument, the person who walked in through the door was none other than Officer Chen from the other day.

“Yo, who’s this?” The moment Officer Chen saw Du Chuxuan, a touch of smugness flashed across his eyes.

Du Chuxuan naturally saw it, but he didn’t care why the officer was here.

Standing still, he didn’t even give the officer a second look.

Shortly afterwards, Luo Er hurriedly came over from behind and was also taken aback when he saw the officer. “My Lord, we have found His Highness.”

His voice had a hint of anger in it, which made Du Chuxuan a little anxious. “Take me to him!”

“Heh, is this an attempt to escape? I receive a report that there was a trespass here. Now that I have both the witness and evidence, you’d better come back with me.” Officer Chen immediately stopped Du Chuxuan, the sarcasm in his eyes obvious.

Luo Er frowned slightly and just wanted to make a move when he was stopped by Du Chuxuan. “Keep this loud person here. I will question him properly later.”

After saying that, Du Chuxuan turned around and left without looking at Officer Chen. He didn’t need to know what the person behind this was up to, only that he had miscalculated the influence of Du Chuxuan being the Lord of Sect Luo. If the person who had come today was the Commissioner or the third prince, he was afraid he would have to be delayed here in order not to alert the snakes.

But it was only an officer of the Patrol Office. He would kill this person today and blame him for being an asshole.

Officer Chen immediately became glum, but he did say anything since his martial arts skills were far below Luo Er. Instead, the men he brought with him surrounded the yard and approached Du Chuxuan cautiously.

“Are you all blind.” Du Chuxuan snorted coldly and kicked the men who blocked him. The force was just right, the kind that couldn’t kill anyone but wouldn’t allow them to keep moving.

With a path ahead of him, he stopped wasting time with them, and followed a man in Sect Luo clothing towards the yard behind.

It had to be said that there were still benefits to digging into the ground. This secret room was extremely well-hidden, and the secret door wasn’t placed directly on the ground like that of a normal cellar. Instead, there was a mechanism to open it.

The men of Sect Luo naturally didn’t find the mechanism, but used the simplest and most crude way to blast up the ground. It was only when they saw the person inside that they became furious.
