Chapter 1270: Chapter 1269 Zhao Dongming Wu Feizhi

"Your junior brother?" Ge Kaiyang’s eyes lit up. "How strong is he?"

"He is called Mianlizhen." Smiling Hidden Knife replied, "His skills are on par with mine!"

"That must make him a master too!" Ge Kaiyang was even more delighted, "Then, can he stay in Capital City and help us deal with Su Yang?"

"This..." Smiling Hidden Knife hesitated, speaking in a low voice, "I’m not on particularly good terms with this junior brother."

Ge Kaiyang was taken aback and said in a deep voice, "Then what is he here for? Could it be that he’s here to deal with you? Is he hired by someone with the surname Su?"

"That’s unlikely." Smiling Hidden Knife shook his head, "Our relationship is just ordinary. He won’t help me, but he wouldn’t openly go against me either. Also, he mentioned someone hired him to seek me out for a task, likely wanting to hire me for a murder."

Ge Kaiyang’s expression turned cold, "If your junior brother is almost as capable as you, why didn’t they directly hire him for the job instead of coming to you? There must be a conspiracy here, don’t be deceived!"

"Deceive me?" Smiling Hidden Knife shook his head, "He wouldn’t deceive me."

"That’s hard to say." Ge Kaiyang waved his hand, "Anyway, we are currently in a critical phase of our strategizing against Su Yang. It’s better to avoid extra troubles. Don’t meet this person for now, let’s deal with Su Yang and Lü Donglin first."

Smiling Hidden Knife thought for a moment, then nodded, "That sounds good."

"Pack up, let’s get going," instructed Ge Kaiyang.

Just as Smiling Hidden Knife was about to speak, he suddenly heard a voice in the distance. His expression immediately turned cautious, and he shouted, "Who goes there?"

Ge Kaiyang, injured, was not as alert as Smiling Hidden Knife, but he quickly became vigilant too.

At that moment, a man emerged from the nearby woods, smiling, "Senior brother, long time no see!"

The man who came out was a middle-aged man, thin and small, with shifty eyes that gave off a sleazy vibe. His smile was similar to that of Smiling Hidden Knife, though he was much smaller in build. According to the way he addressed him, this must indeed be Smiling Hidden Knife’s junior brother, Mianlizhen.

"Is it you?" Smiling Hidden Knife relaxed, but Ge Kaiyang was still full of wariness, anxiously looking around, worried that others might have followed as well.

Seeing Ge Kaiyang’s concern, Smiling Hidden Knife directly asked, "Did you come alone?"

"Of course not," Mianlizhen laughed, "I told you I came to see you for a reason. What else could it be?"

"Who else came with you then?" Ge Kaiyang immediately asked, very worried. If Su Yang and Lü Donglin had followed him here, then he would be doomed.

Before Mianlizhen could reply, a laugh suddenly came from the distance, "I didn’t expect to see you here, Young Master Ge. It’s been a long time!"

Recognizing the voice, Ge Kaiyang suddenly looked up, only to see a young man of average height approaching.

"Is that you!?" Ge Kaiyang’s eyes widened, "Wu Feizhi, what are you doing here?"

The person was indeed Wu Feizhi, who had once been one of the top four masters in the advanced class at Qinghe Academy with Ge Kaiyang. He had been defeated by Su Yang and Lü Donglin, and left Qinghe Academy with Zhao Dongming, and had been silent ever since—until today.

Seeing Wu Feizhi, Ge Kaiyang felt not much fear. There was no real enmity between them, instead, they shared common enemies—Su Yang and Lü Donglin. On this, they stood on the same side.

"I’d rather ask you the same question—what brings you here?"

Another voice came from behind. Turning his head, Ge Kaiyang saw Zhao Dongming walking out from the woods.

Knowing the relationship between Zhao Dongming and Wu Feizhi, Ge Kaiyang wasn’t too surprised to see them appear together.

After a moment of thought, Ge Kaiyang suddenly smiled, "It seems we are here for the same reason!"

Zhao Dongming and Wu Feizhi looked at each other, then back at Ge Kaiyang, and the three of them laughed simultaneously.

"It looks like our alliance from Qinghe Academy will continue here in Capital City," Zhao Dongming smiled.

"Since we have the same goal, let’s go inside and talk in detail," Ge Kaiyang suggested with a smile.

"Sure!" Zhao Dongming and Wu Feizhi nodded and all three walked into a nearby cottage.

Smiling Hidden Knife and Mianlizhen looked at each other, then followed them inside.

"The main reason I sought out Mianlizhen was to connect with Smiling Hidden Knife and together tackle Su Yang and Lü Donglin," Zhao Dongming explained. "I didn’t expect you’d already made contact with Smiling Hidden Knife. Brother Ge, it seems our thoughts are quite alike!"

"Of course," Ge Kaiyang replied. "Su Yang and Lü Donglin have gone too far, their actions too extreme; they are unbearable and I certainly won’t let them get away with it."

"However, Lü Donglin’s strength is formidable, and that Su Yang has been causing quite a stir in Capital City lately. Taking on both of them won’t be easy," Zhao Dongming said softly. "Brother Ge, do you have any good plan?"

"Well, I don’t have a plan yet," Ge Kaiyang smiled. "But since you’ve brought Mianlizhen and also sought out Smiling Hidden Knife, you must have some good plan, right?"

Zhao Dongming silently sneered inwardly, keenly aware of Ge Kaiyang’s cunning nature. He didn’t believe that Ge Kaiyang had no plans; it’s just that Ge Kaiyang has always been this way—very secretive and extremely wily, Zhao Dongming had long grown accustomed to it.

"I do have a plan, but it’s not fully formed yet," Zhao Dongming said.

"Oh? Let’s hear it," Ge Kaiyang appeared very interested.

"Lü Wenbang ambushed Su Yang tonight, but was tragically defeated and killed by Lü Donglin. You know about that, right?" Zhao Dongming asked.

"I’ve heard about it," Ge Kaiyang nodded, but inwardly he was laughing. Not only did he know about it, he knew very well indeed. In fact, Lü Wenbang was currently lying dead in a room behind them.

Of course, Ge Kaiyang would never share this with Zhao Dongming; it was a trump card that he was saving for a potentially big advantage later.

"Lü Wenbang had colluded with seventeen families in Capital City to attack Su Yang, who was staying in the Shen Family Courtyard," Zhao Dongming continued. "These seventeen families were well-prepared, thinking they would seize the first opportunity to strike against Su Yang and gain the upper hand. Sadly, Su Yang was already aware of their plans. With Lü Wenbang dead, Su Yang remains unscathed, while these seventeen families now find themselves in a difficult position!"

"Trying to gain an advantage isn’t so easy!" Ge Kaiyang scoffed coldly, "These seventeen families thought they could grasp an opportunity, but instead, they lost their wives and soldiers. With Su Yang’s methods, they probably don’t even know how to cry now!"
