The next morning.
"What's going on? Why isn't there any disturbance?"
Xu Tianze had been constantly monitoring Zhou Sui's courtyard, but he had been on watch all night to no avail - there had been no activity next door, and no sign of any presence.
He could even see Zhou Sui and his wife and concubines going out for morning training, doing the laundry, cooking meals - just like any other day.
The problem was, he had deliberately hinted to the Five Tigers of Yan Mountain that the cultivator next door surely possessed a large amount of spirit stones.
Given the Five Tigers' character, they could not have resisted the temptation and would surely have made a move to rob and kill.
But until this morning, he had seen no sign of the Five Tigers taking any action, which was completely baffling.
"Did the Five Tigers of Yan Mountain fail to understand my meaning, hence they didn't make a move?"
"Or did they make a move but were killed off silently by that bunch of female cultivators?"
