Chapter 126: Chapter 82 Assassination (Please Subscribe)_3

Fortunately, he hadn’t let Su Lianqing lead the Lotus Sect members into action; otherwise, they might have turned his own plot against him.

"No good, we can’t wait until they attempt the assassination before trying to prevent it. Things would become even more uncontrollable," Xu Qing realized that if they went with the original plan—letting the Lotus Sect members into the Heavenly Fragrance Courtyard, even if he got the chance to take advantage of the chaos to obtain the Fox Attraction Incense, it might lead to the assassination of an important figure in the courtyard.

"At that time, in the Heavenly Fragrance Courtyard, the important figure who had enmity with the Lotus Sect could only be one person!"

"Magistrate He!"

Xu Qing almost instantly deduced the target of the Lotus Sect.

Because killing Xu Qing wouldn’t benefit the Lotus Sect much, and Xu Qing knew that he was definitely not as significant as Magistrate He.

Now, the most pressing matter was to locate the Lotus Sect’s lodging.

Xu Qing was burning with anxiety but his face remained as calm as a still lake.

He stated calmly, "Second Brother Guo, go now to Golden Ray Monastery to fetch Master Fayue into the city. Tell him to bring five, no, seven Martial Monks and meet me directly at the Government office."

"Yes." Guo Li took the order and hurried towards the Golden Ray Monastery. He wasn’t aware of the young master’s intentions, but he must carry out the young master’s commands resolutely.

...

...

Su Lianqing sensed a malignant aura and knew that the Yaksha King had arrived.

She sent her Divine Soul out of its shell and saw Xu Qing.

"Come out and see me."

Xu Qing didn’t mince words, communicating directly soul-to-soul.

Su Lianqing quickly called her Divine Soul back to its shell, locked the room, and informed the maidservants that she wanted to sleep for a while and would meet no one.

Now that it was dusk and the sun had set, there was no harm in Su Lianqing sending out her Divine Soul.

She followed Xu Qing’s Divine Soul outside.

"Do you know where the Lotus Sect members are lodging?"

"I don’t know," Su Lianqing shook her head.

Xu Qing wasn’t surprised.

Since Su Lianqing was already under suspicion by those people, even if she knew the location, it would likely be an Enchanting Soul Array.

Heavenly Fragrance Courtyard was a newly opened brothel with altered layouts.

"Did the Lotus Sect ask you for the layout of Heavenly Fragrance Courtyard?"

"They asked, but the map I gave them was only a sketch. The specific arrangements would definitely require further observation," replied Su Lianqing.

She keenly sensed that something serious had happened.

Had her identity been exposed?

Xu Qing: "Your identity has likely been revealed by their people, or at the very least, it has aroused significant suspicion. However, they’re not targeting you for the time being."

"Who is their target?"

"Your old flame."

Xu Qing, with his soul aloft, surveyed the surrounding buildings.

Of all the vantage points, there was only one where the wind wasn’t strong, one could avoid direct sunlight, and it was suitable for lodging.

That’s the place.

Xu Qing pointed towards the Songhe Building.

He led Su Lianqing’s Divine Soul into the Songhe Building.

Under his Day Trip Realm Divine Soul observation, he indeed spotted several vigorous Qi-Blood auras, quite conspicuous.

"We’ve found them!"

After secretly identifying them with Su Lianqing, Xu Qing quickly left.

In a secluded alley near the Heavenly Fragrance Courtyard, there was a coach with a Coachman on top, Xu Fu.

Xu Qing quickly called his Divine Soul back to his shell and indifferently instructed Xu Fu, "To the Government office."

Upon hearing this, Xu Fu immediately drove the coach towards the Government office.

Xu Qing chose not to ride the Fire Cloud Horse because the coach was better for concealing the physical body and the Fire Cloud Horse was too ostentatious, likely to alert the Lotus Sect.

Inside the coach, he coolly pondered how to capture all the Lotus Sect members without inflicting too much damage.

The opposition had a Repeating Crossbow, not to mention other formidable weapons.

Just from those few Qi-Blood auras, it was clear that those individuals were not average Martial Artists.

In addition, Su Lianqing had mentioned that among the Lotus Sect members who had entered the city this time, there was Elder Tang who was not only skilled in Dao Skill but also extremely adept at using Hidden Weapons.

Su Lianqing had described how formidable that Hidden Weapon was.

Xu Qing had to think through his plan carefully.
