Deal with Twin Cold Sabers

Long Chen jumped on the ground and walked towards the center of the Prism Plaza. He didn't wear a mask or try to conceal his identity this time.

In reality, it wouldn't have mattered because the cultivation difference was vast enough that Qian Yanyu could easily find his identity if she were a bit determined.

Thus, Long Chen altered his method.

Noticing Long Chen, Qian Yanyu frowned slightly. She had a feeling that this man was heading towards them.

Meanwhile, Xiao Lan's eyes brightened upon seeing Long Chen. She instantly had a good impression of him because of his handsome appearance.

Long Chen stopped walking once he was ten or so meters away from the Twin Cold Sabers. He spoke, "I called you here."

Xiao Lan appeared startled to hear his words. Meanwhile, Qian Yanyu remained calm, but her eyes turned slightly colder. She spoke icily, "You mentioned that you know our master's location. Tell us what you know?!"

She could sense Long Chen's power. He appeared to be a 2 Star Warrior.

Moreover, as she inspected this Ardor, Qian Yanyu felt that it was the same as that Ardor she sensed when she witnessed the Golden Words Illusion.

"I naturally didn't lie. Your master left the Silver Snow Sect two years ago to investigate the beast disturbances in the east. Unfortunately, she didn't return. You have already investigated the eastern parts but found no clues of your master's presence."

"…How did you know that we have already been to the eastern parts?" Xiao Lan asked curiously.

Qian Yanyu wanted to slap the back of her junior sister's head. Just why was she confirming his words?

Long Chen smiled upon hearing Xiao Lan's question. He answered casually, "I like to read the news. You resolved a major issue of Meizhou Town's peasants in the east nearly seven months ago. I talked to a traveler from Meizhou Town who informed me that you were actually helping out many people in the area while asking about your master's whereabouts. And since you have appeared on the southern side, it means you have thoroughly explored the eastern side."

"Woah! That's so smart!" Xiao Lan complimented him genuinely.

Even Qian Yanyu seemed slightly impressed upon hearing Long Chen's words. She spoke, "Where is our master?"

"…My lord knows the exact location of your master. However, why should she help you for nothing?" Long Chen spoke with a smile.

Qian Yanyu expected to hear these words. She sighed and spoke, "That is indeed true. What does your lord want in return for informing us of the location of our master?"

Long Chen smiled upon hearing these words. He knew that she would accept his request.

"You should know of the current situation going on in Dongchun City. The merchants are resisting a mysterious organization named the Noble Shadow. My lord wants your help in raiding this base. With your assistance, our victory is assured," Long Chen spoke.

Qian Yanyu didn't expect Long Chen had approached her for this task. She instantly grabbed hold of Xiao Lan's hand and backed away, "You belong to the Benevolent Corps organization?!"

As a partner of the Law Enforcement Department in Dongchun City, Qian Yanyu naturally knew of the organization resisting the Noble Shadow.

It was said that the Benevolent Corps had many members. There were also a few 4-Star Warriors.

"…How can we be sure that you will inform us of the right location? What if you are lying to us and want to use us?" Qian Yanyu asked. She naturally couldn't agree readily regarding such a dangerous job.

Long Chen smiled and spoke, "You are indeed right to be doubtful of me. Even I would have done the same. However, I have a way of making you trust me. My lord mentioned that I should ask you to go to Yusra Town. Question the locals of that town, and you will find some clues about your master in that town. However, if you want to know your master's exact location, then return to Dongchun City and look for the bartender in 'The Great Bear Pub.' I will contact you soon."

Xiao Lan and Qian Yanyu stared at each other with complicated looks.

"…What do you think? Do you trust him?" Xiao Lan asked.

"I don't know yet. His confidence does make me trust him. He does not appear to be afraid of us or the authorities in Dongchun City, or else he would have tried to hide his face. However, this could also be a bluff," Qian Yanyu spoke.

"I have a feeling that he is speaking the truth. The part that he seems so calm might be a bluff, but the fact that his lord knows our master's location seems to be true. Let's go with him," Xiao Lan spoke.

Qian Yanyu snorted in response as she pinched Xiao Lan's waist, "Hmph. Who are you trying to trick, young lady? You just want to spend more time with this pretty boy."

"Hehe. This is one reason. But I really feel that he is telling the truth. We should trust him a bit. Besides, it's not a bad thing if we act against the Noble Shadow. The Noble Shadow has destroyed the lives of thousands of merchants in Dongchun City. They should be punished!" Xiao Lan spoke, trying her best to convince her senior sister.

Qian Yanyu knew that Xiao Lan was persuading her to trust Long Chen.

"…Let's think more about it after visiting the Yusra Town. But what will we do about our commitment to administration?" Qian Yanyu wondered with a sigh.

Xiao Lan rolled her eyes upon hearing these words, "Finding out our master's location is much more important than this. Besides, this battle between the merchants and the Noble Shadow doesn't involve the administration all that much. They can't blame us if we inform them that we were just investigating a clue regarding our master's disappearance. Besides, it's not like we won't return. So, taking this leap of faith is indeed worth it."

Qian Yanyu seemed convinced upon hearing those words.

She stared at Long Chen and spoke, "Very well. We will visit the Yusra Town. If we find a clue regarding our master, we will definitely return and promise to help you."

Long Chen smiled upon hearing this promise. He spoke, "Thank you."

He turned his head and decided to return to Ren Yue's mansion. However, Long Chen was a bit worried that these women might follow him, so he purposely went through a different way. He quietly changed his path and returned to Ren Yue's mansion.

His guess was actually right.

The Twin Cold Sabers were truly following him. They were curious about the location of Long Chen's lord.

However, along the way, they never realized when Long Chen switched his direction. By the time they realized it, Long Chen was nowhere to be seen.
