Chapter 19: 19

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Although the Han Residence was part of Windmill Town, it was not located in the town. Instead, it was located on the mountainside of Wind Rock Mountain, which was about twenty miles away from the town.

Zhang Lun led the convoy of Han Residence and everyone toward Windmill Town.

Wind Rock Mountain produced wind rock. Wind rock was a special stone material that had a higher hardness than ordinary stones, but its weight was only one-tenth of the same volume of stone material.

It was a rare stone that had a wide range of uses. Trading of wind rock was also the main business of the Han Residence. The taxes of wind rock trading to the government each year was worth more than 100,000 gold.

Right now, Zhang Lun’s convoy was carrying a batch of freshly mined wind rocks.

Zhang Lun was not the only one. The a few guards who were responsible for escorting the stone. Lu Yu also saw Yang Xiu in the team.

When he saw Yang Xiu again after a long time, Lu Yu couldn’t help but recall his previous guess.

He quietly moved toward the crowd, trying his best not to attract Yang Xiu’s attention.

“My strength is still too weak!” Lu Yu lamented in his heart.

He learned from Zhang Lun that Yang Xiu was a martial art cultivator at the seventh level of the body refining realm.

However, after learning that Yang Xiu might be plotting something against the Han Residence, Lu Yu suspected Yang Xiu’s strength was already at qi cultivating realm.

It was normal for a person who was plotting something evil to hide his strength.

The convoy arrived at Windmill Town without any accidents along the way. Lu Yu also left the convoy and went to the place that Zhang Lun told him to go on a new mission.

However, this time, he did not receive any new daily missions. Lu Yu felt that it was a pity.

But after he thought about it, the daily missions were so simple. It was most likely the benefits of the novice village. Since he had already left the novice village, it made sense that he did not have any daily missions.

According to the route that Zhang Lun had described to him, Lu Yu found a business that belonged to the Han family — the Ji Min Hall.

The Ji Min Hall was a medicine shop that sold medicine to treat the illness of ordinary people, as well as pills needed for the cultivation of martial art cultivator.

Currently, the person in charge of the Ji Min Hall was Butler Zhang. He had come to Windmill Town under the orders of Han Yaozu to look for the masterminds behind the Wild Wolf Sect, Blood Blade Sect, Fierce Tiger Sect, and other forces.

He was also the one who had arranged for Lu Yu to be here.

“Hello, I’m looking for Butler Zhang.” Lu Yu walked into the medicine shop and said to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper looked at Lu Yu and asked, “Are you Lu Yu?”

“Yes.”

“Go upstairs from the back. Butler Zhang is waiting for you there.”

Lu Yu heard this and walked into the back door of the medicine shop. He saw a staircase that led to the second floor and walked up.

Butler Zhang was sitting in the hall on the second floor. He listened to the intelligence that his subordinates had gathered during this period of time. He picked up his teacup and took a sip. He turned around and saw Lu Yu going upstairs.

He said to his subordinate, “Go down.”

The subordinate replied and went down to the second floor.

Lu Yu saw that only him and Butler Zhang were left on the second floor. He was a little confused, “What did Butler Zhang want to do?” For a moment, he stood at the entrance of the stairs and pondered. He did not know whether to move forward or retreat.

“Come here. What are you still standing there for?”

Lu Yu responded and walked to the front of Butler Zhang.

“You have already cultivated to the third level of the body refining realm?” Butler Zhang looked at Lu Yu carefully. When Butler Zhang received the news, he was also a little surprised.

He had not broken through to the qi cultivating realm yet, so he could not sense what level Lu Yu was at. Unless he had a contact with Lu Yu, then he could sense what level Lu Yu’s qi-blood was at.

Butler Zhang didn’t touch Lu Yu to verify it. He trusted Han Yaozong’s judgment.

“Yes, I had a sudden breakthrough when I was in danger last night. I didn’t expect it either.”

Butler Zhang took a sip of tea, he said, “It’s normal to have a breakthrough in a life and death situation. A battle will stimulate your qi-blood to boil, especially at the critical moment. When your qi-blood boil to the limit, you will break through.”

“This means that not only do you have talent in cultivation, but you also have talent in battle. Only people with a strong will can make a breakthrough while facing the threat of death.”

Lu Yu quietly listened to Butler Zhang’s words.

“I called you to Windmill Town this time because I have a task for you.” Butler Zhang put down his teacup and his expression became serious.

“The group of black-clothed men who broke into the Han Residence last night were the underground gangs like the Wild Wolf Sect, the Blood Blade Sect, the Fierce Tiger Sect, and other gangs in Windmill Town. Behind them, there is a mysterious mastermind causing everything that has happened in the Han Residence these past few days.”

“I suspect that even young master Han Fan was coerced by the mastermind. That was why he broke into the family head’s study room. After he failed, the mastermind prevented Han Fan from revealing his identity, so he killed him.”

Lu Yu felt somewhat helpless when he heard this. Not only did he know that Han Fan was killed by the mastermind, but he also knew who the mastermind was.

He was a little hesitant now as to whether he should tell Butler Zhang that Yang Xiu was the behind-the-scenes mastermind.

Based on his judgment, Butler Zhang would not conspire with Yang Xiu to plan these things.

However, If Butler Zhang was in cahoots with Yang Xiu, he would be silenced.

Moreover, Yang Xiu had left the Han Residence with the team. Even if Butler Zhang was not in cahoots with Yang Xiu and he told Butler Zhang his suspicious, he might not be able to catch Yang Xiu now.

If Yang Xiu escaped, Lu Yu would have to live in fear.

After all, Han Fan had been killed silently by Yang Xiu in the heavily guarded Han Residence. At that time, there were several body refining realm guards not far away from Han Fan.

Plus, Han Residence would not provide him with guards to protect him. Moreover, the guards of Han Residence had no chance to defeat Yang Xiu, except maybe the squires.

After Lu Yu thought about the consequences, he decided to wait for a while before telling the truth after he became stronger.

Or he could use someone else’s mouth to tell the truth to Han Residence, but this way, he would not be able to get the reward for finding out the mastermind!

After considering all the circumstances and consequences, Lu Yu decided not to expose Yang Xiu until he was strong enough.

Thinking of this, Lu Yu heaved a sigh of relief. He quietly listened to Butler Zhang talk about the clues he had gathered over the past few days.

“The Wild Wolf Sect, Blood Blade Sect, Fierce Tiger Sect, and other underground gangs were attacked by a mysterious masked man a year ago. After this incident, the conflict between the gangs has obviously decreased. I suspect that this masked man is the mastermind behind the attack.”

“Combined with the fire that happened last night, we can already confirm that there’s a mole in the Han Residence. It’s hard to say whether this mole is the masked man.”

“However, finding out the mole in the Han Residence is much more important than finding traces of the masked man. I have to go back now and think of a way to find the mole hidden in the Han Residence.”

“I called you here because I trust you.” Butler Zhang continued, “The task of finding the masked man is handed to you.”

“If you can find the mastermind behind all of this and make contributions, coupled with your talent, it will be enough for the family head to accept you as a disciple of the Han family with a different surname and grant you freedom.”

“If you want to go to the academy to further your studies, the Han Residence will also give full support and provide cultivation resources.”

“The events that have happened in the past few days are indeed a disaster for the Han Residence, but for you, it is an opportunity. Seize this opportunity, and you will be able to success and change your life.” Butler Zhang said earnestly.

The Han family desperately needed a genius, and they needed a martial art cultivator with a high cultivation as a support.

Even if Lu Yu was not of the Han family’s bloodline, it would be still beneficial to the Han Residence. When Lu Yu became stronger, he would still remember the Han family had supported him when he was in trouble. He would repay Han family’s favor by then.

Although Han Yaozong’s cultivation had reached the spirit mastery realm, it was far from enough to support the Han family by a mere expert.

If possible, with the help of the powerful warriors from the Han family, the Han family could still have a chance to revive the glory of their ancestors.

Butler Zhang knew how powerful the Han family was back then. He was eager to revive Han family, eager to get the powerful warriors who would support the Han family to take back everything they had lost.

He placed the hope of the Han family’s revival on Lu Yu, which was why he valued Lu Yu so much.

Especially after learning that Lu Yu’s talent was far beyond his imagination, he had already thought of the next steps to tie Lu Yu to the Han clan. Or rather, tie the Han clan to Lu Yu.

Of course, things could not be forced. Extreme measures would only backfire. Therefore, Butler Zhang had given Lu Yu the task of finding the masked man in order to create an opportunity to tie Lu Yu and the Han clan together.

Taking Lu Yu in as an external disciple of the Han clan, providing Lu Yu with resources for cultivation, and sending Lu Yu to the academy for further study.

Butler Zhang had already planned the follow-up. As long as Lu Yu could become stronger, the Han clan would have hope of revival.

Of course, Butler Zhang had invested in more than one talent like Lu Yu over the years. It was just that Lu Yu was the most talented one that he had met.

After Lu Yu heard Butler Zhang’s words, he was a little confused. Butler Zhang was too good to him.

Butler Zhang had given Lu Yu such a good opportunity and explained so much to him. Butler Zhang treated Lu Yu so well as if Lu Yu was his illegitimate child.

Lu Yu shook his head and cleared his mind of unnecessary thoughts.

He was sitting on a chair on the second floor. Butler Zhang had already left. Currently, everyone in the Ji Min Hall listened to him. This was an order that Butler Zhang had given to his subordinates before he left.

Lu Yu poured himself a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp.

He felt that things had become quite interesting. He had only gone out for a single trip, and he had already gone from being a courtyard guard to being the person in charge of an important business of the Han Residence. This rise in status was a too good to be true.

The Ji Min Hall was in charge of the medicinal herbs and medicinal pills business and was also in charge of the supply of the many medicinal pills that the Han Residence consumed on a daily basis.

However, such an important business was actually handed over to him so easily. Lu Yu did not know what Butler Zhang was thinking.

He picked up the teapot and poured tea directly into his mouth, “Forget it. I’ll stop thinking about it.”

After putting down the teapot, he went downstairs to ask about the accommodation that they had arranged for him. A person brought him through the Ji Min Hall and came to the back of the street. It was a small courtyard that was specially prepared for people from the Han Residence.

A small courtyard and a two-story building were Lu Yu’s residence.

After sending the others away, Lu Yu took out the qi-blood pill and prepared to see the effects of the qi-blood pill.

As for finding the mastermind behind the scenes, it was an extremely simple matter for him. He just did not have enough strength to protect himself if he exposed the mastermind.

He threw the qi-blood pill into his mouth and chewed it before swallowed it his stomach. He concluded that the qi-blood pill did not taste as good as the body tempering pill.

After eating the qi-blood pill, Lu Yu quickly felt that his qi-blood were circulating at an accelerated speed. He began to cultivate in AFK mode.

While he was cultivating Fierce Tiger Fist Style in AFK, Lu Yu was thinking of buying a saber that was heavy and strong enough..
