"Hahaha! Ridiculous… absolutely ridiculous!" Lord Cai exclaimed.
Lord Cai couldn't help but laugh at the words of Wu Teng. Even he couldn't understand how the people of Gu Legion who were all smart and threatening till now, would act dumbly like that. But Wu Hei had a different reaction, he was deep in thought.
Still, the one who was the most shocked yet didn't have any expression on his face was Lin Mu.
'So it really is Wu Xun who's the master of the Gu Legion and not someone else.' Lin Mu thought.
Hearing the words of Wu Teng pretty much confirmed it for Lin Mu as he understood that the men were trying to convince Wu Teng to spare them.
"Seems like while the people of the Gu Legion know Wu Teng is Wu Xun's son, they don't know that he isn't aware of their existence." Xukong suddenly spoke.
"Hmm, seems like a misunderstanding… a misunderstanding that we can take advantage of. At least his confirms another thing for us… Wu Hei and Wu Teng are truly unaware of the actions of their father." Lin Mu replied.
"Indeed, this makes it both easier and complex for us now. While we know that they are not involved with their father now, we can't say the same in the future. Perhaps, when they learn of it, they may choose to stand with their father than us." Xukong explained.
"That is true. We can't reveal this to Wu Hei yet and still need more information." Lin Mu stated.
Wu Teng looked at Lin Mu who was silent and wondered why he was acting like this for.
"Brother Mu, how did the Gu Legion offend you?" Wu Teng asked.
"They offended my master and I'm looking for them in his stead." Lin Mu simply answered.
"Aha! I see. Still, any enemy of my brother and his friends is my enemy too! I swear to find them for you if I get the chance!" Wu Teng declared slamming his fist on his chest.
"Thank you, brother Teng. That would be great." Lin Mu replied.
"I'll also assist them in this matter, Lord Mu Lin. I believe they will eventually try to make contact with me. That is when we'll get the." Lord Cai stated.
"So you'll inform us if anything happens?" Wu Hei asked again.
"Yes I will, Lord Hei. I swear on my honor!" Lord Cai affirmed.
Lin Mu and Wu Hei both nodded and felt like their task was made slightly easier.
"Well then, Elder Brother, Lord Cai; I need to leave now. Mother does not like to be delayed." Wu Hei said.

"That is fine, Lord Hei. Please take care and don't hesitate to contact me if you need help in any matter. I'll do my best." Lord Cai replied respectfully.
"Yeah, little brother take care… and don't tell mother about me. I'll be back in a couple of hours after having a bit of fun." Wu Teng stated in response.
Wu Hei then looked at Lin Mu and asked, "will you be leaving with me or staying here?"
Lin Mu could sense a few gazes on him, particularly of one woman who was none other than Yue. He hesitated for a second before deciding.
"I'll come with you. Perhaps I'll visit the Alluring Wisteria Pavilion later." Lin Mu answered.
His answer made Yue sigh in a helpless tone, but Lord Cai was the same. He already knew that he had achieved what he wanted, and it didn't really matter if Lin Mu wanted to stay here or not. He could care even less about what a courtesan wanted.
"I'll see you out, my lords." Lord Cai offered.
"No need. We'll leave on our own." Wu Hei said and Lin Mu nodded in acknowledgment.
The two of them then left the boisterous banquet, much to the sadness of Yue who had a frown on her face. They left the building, and the carriage was soon brought to them. After entering the carriage, the two of them sat down on the opposite sides and Wu Hei suddenly spoke.
"Brother Lin Mu, I may have a suspicion about the person behind the Gu Legion." Wu Hei said in a serious tone.
Lin Mu tensed up and gestured for him to continue, "please speak."
"I think… it may be my father, the mayor." Wu Hei revealed.
Lin Mu showed no reaction to this and simply kept a calm face.
"And what made you think this, Lord Hei?" Lin Mu questioned.
~Sigh~
"Honestly, I had the suspicion for a long time now. About fifteen years ago I found some documents in my father's study which showed that he was involved in some dark businesses. I thought that he was just the same as all aristocrats and did some things in the shadows.
I had this in my mind for a few years till I first had the encounter with the Gu Legion. I didn't know who they were, but knew they were bad. I was quite naive back then with ambitions of justice. Of course, like a naive kid, I went to fight with a few of their members when they were attacking a village under the guise of a bandit group.
I sustained injuries but thankfully had my servants who protected me. They died protecting me while the Gu Legion members retreated. While I was busy fighting with them, the other part of the bandits had raided and killed half of the village.
I swore to not be helpless like that and took an oath to become stronger. That was also where I started my group, which I later named the Hei corps. Hei Wen was one of the villagers that were attacked back then.
She was a mere teen back then and was severely injured. I rescued her and she vowed to follow me, becoming part of the Hei corps. And just like this, I would recruit more and more people till it reached the level it is today." Wu Hei revealed.
Lin Mu was silently listened to his story and could feel the pain in it.
