“Reporting to the Gang Leader, he has returned and should be home by now.”

Nan Batian said, “Hmm.”

The carriage rumbled forward, disappearing from sight.

At that moment, Chen Jie bowed with his fists to Qimu Ge, “Thank you, Lord Commander, for your righteousness and words.”

Qimu Ge said with a chuckle, “No need to thank me. Now that the matters here have concluded, I shall take my leave. In three days, I, along with Lord Yelu, will attend your inauguration ceremony.”

“Looking forward to your grand arrival.”

Chen Jie bowed his fists.

Qimu Ge left, and Elder Liu approached, saying, “Jiu Si, I’ve always said you’re not a fish meant for small ponds, you rascal. Learn more from your big brother in the future.”

Elder Liu dragged Liu Song along, and Liu Song gave Chen Jie a glance, his face full of defiance.

Elder Liu angrily said, “You rascal, you…”

“Guild Leader Liu, a young man, ought to have a bit of temper.”

Hearing this, Liu Song murmured softly, though still defiant, “He’s only a year older than me, what’s he acting all high and mighty for?”

“What did you say?”

Elder Liu glared at Liu Song, and Liu Song bowed his head, silent, resembling a rebellious child.

Chen Jie merely smiled, exchanged a few courteous words with Elder Liu, and saw him off.

Now, only Miss Hongyan remained. She approached gracefully, looking at Chen Jie, “Who would have thought, in such a short time, that a boy with nothing has become the renowned White Tiger Hall Master. Fortune in life is indeed mysterious!”

Hearing this, Chen Jie looked at her and said, “If I could choose, I actually wouldn’t want to be the White Tiger Hall Master. I would rather my adoptive father were still alive.”

Miss Hongyan said, “This is Jianghu, where you don’t always get what you want but rather, often, what you don’t want!”

“Miss Hongyan seems to have a deep understanding of life, doesn’t she?”

Miss Hongyan smiled and said, “What can one do if not understand deeply? A person, perhaps with one opportunity, could soar to the skies, just like you. Before, you called me Senior Hongyan, and now you’ve demoted it to Miss Hongyan.”

Chen Jie said, “Then what would the lady prefer I call her?”

Miss Hongyan said, “As long as you don’t call me a scoundrel, I’m satisfied. Farewell.”

Miss Hongyan waved her handkerchief and followed up with, “Chen Jiu Si, you are a hidden dragon. However, ‘Hidden Dragon, Do Not Use.’ Be careful. Today, you seriously offended Nan Batian!”

Chen Jie smiled and said, “Thank you for your concern, miss. I look forward to welcoming you in three days.”

Miss Hongyan said, “Hmm.”

Having said that, Miss Hongyan left. Then Zhou Chu approached, saying, “Jiu Si, she’s right. You’ve seriously offended Nan Batian this time.”

Chen Jie said, “How can I assure certain people to trust me without seriously offending him?”

“Hmm?”

Zhou Chu looked puzzled.

Chen Jie smiled and said, “This Jianghu, ah, makes us follow its own course! But offending Nan Batian, I enjoy that, haha…”

…

Darugachi Mansion!

“Oh, so Chen Jiu Si didn’t give Nan Batian any face at all?”

At this moment, Yelu was lounging barefoot on a soft couch, shaded by a paper umbrella, with beauties surrounding him. Three beauties were fishing in the mansion’s lake with rods.

Qimu Ge said, “Hmm, not a bit of face. He not only took back Nan Lake, Yongchang Street, and North Mountain Iron Mine that were seized by Nan Batian, but he even made them pay back the profits from these properties for the past few days.”

“Ha… Hehe…”

Upon hearing this, Yelu burst out laughing and sprayed the wine from his mouth, full of mirth, “Haha… Interesting, interesting, Nan Batian’s expression must have been priceless.”

“He looked like he wanted to eat him alive!”

Qimu Ge responded, and hearing this, Yelu laughed and said, “Good, this Chen Jiu Si is a clever man. We should help him more in the future.”

“Lord, wouldn’t overtly helping be too conspicuous?”

Yelu said, “Who said anything about helping overtly? You just need to let Nan Batian know that I am behind him, as for the rest, Chen Jiu Si should understand.”

“Yes, my lord.”

“By the way, lord, there’s another matter I need to report.”

“Speak,” Yelu said.

“It’s like this. Today, Chen Jiu Si used a palm…”

Qimu Ge repeated the eighth form Chen Jie had used, and Yelu asked, “Your point?”

“My subordinate believes that Chen Jiu Si was not lying, that eighth palm indeed seems to be an evolution from the Stone Breaking Palm, incorporating a bit of the intent from the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms.”

“Oh, then no need to worry about him. As for the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms, think of other ways…”

“Yes, my subordinate understands.”

While they were talking, one of the fishing women said, “Lord, there’s a fish.”

Yelu responded with a smile, “Good, a reward!”

Third Miss Hua’s Tofu Shop!

“Boss, boss…”

A young staff member rushed inside the tofu shop as if crazed, loudly calling for the boss.

Third Miss Hua was comforting Su Yunjin, who had been lost in grief, thinking neither of tea nor food, and incessantly having nightmares. In her dreams, she always saw her husband covered in blood, collapsed in a pool of blood. Every time she awoke from the nightmares, her pillow was soaked.

Today, Su Yunjin refused to eat again. Third Miss Hua, having learned of this, came to persuade her, “Girl, you can’t go on like this. If this continues, you might fall ill before Jiu Si returns!”

“Sister Hua, I can’t eat.”

“You need to eat a few bites at least; otherwise, how will your body withstand this?”

Su Yunjin said, “I’m fine, but Sister Hua, is there any news of my husband?”

“If there were news, I would have told you immediately. There’s none.”

“Ah… I don’t even know if my husband is safe now, whether he’s had a warm meal…”

As Su Yunjin spoke, tears began to fall.

Just then, the young staff member burst in: “Boss, boss…”

Third Miss Hua glared at him, “I’m not dead yet, what are you shouting for?”

Hearing this, the staff member cracked a smile, “Boss, the Fifth Master has returned!”

“What, what!”

Upon hearing this, Third Miss Hua and Su Yunjin both stood up, faces filled with surprise.
