Chapter 99: How Does a Big Man Like You Know So Much?

“Why don’t I just go kill those people directly? That would solve everything once and for all, and I wouldn’t have to worry about anything anymore.”

Yu Xian was someone who disliked using his brain; he preferred simple and brutal methods.

Yu Xian’s words earned him a collective eye-roll from Huang Rong and Ning Zhongze.

Yu Xian’s method was merely treating the symptoms, not the root cause. Just like when they eliminated the Mongol experts previously, the Mongol army did calm down for a while, but now haven’t even more experts appeared?

“The child is about to be born; let’s have less bloodshed,” Ning Zhongze sighed and said.

“Fine,” Yu Xian shrugged reluctantly.

Despite what he said, that very night, Yu Xian still donned his night clothes, masked his face, and went to investigate that group of people himself.

He had never heard the name Buriqodai and didn’t know where he came from, but that group of people might be different. As long as he heard a familiar name, he could figure out which faction they belonged to, after all, he was a Transmigrator.

Only by knowing who the opponent was could he utilize his advantage as a clairvoyant.

During the day, Yu Xian had obtained the group’s exact location from Huang Rong, so Yu Xian easily tracked down where they were staying.

Upon arriving nearby, Yu Xian suppressed his aura. He sensed several powerful auras within the courtyard; there were not only Grandmaster experts but likely two Great Grandmasters as well.

This group’s strength far exceeded his estimation!

However, Yu Xian still quietly sneaked in; he had to figure out this group’s identity.

Following the courtyard’s layout, Yu Xian could easily find the master bedroom, where the leading noble Young Master should be staying.

It wasn’t bedtime yet, and the lights in the main house were still on, so Yu Xian hid in the dark rafters.

This mansion not only concealed numerous experts but also had many guards. It seemed their leader’s identity was truly extraordinary—a royal descendant from Mongolia?

Voices could be heard speaking from inside the main house.

A smile touched the corner of Yu Xian’s mouth. This was why he chose this time to come; since they weren’t asleep, they might be discussing matters.

Thus, Yu Xian arrived just in time.

“Master, there are many beggars lingering outside. They should be from the Beggars Sect watching us,” came a deep male voice, indicating profound Internal Energy and not an ordinary expert.

“No matter. They are all minor characters. Let them surround us if they like. What movement is there from Guo Jing’s side?” came a young, clear voice.

It was the voice of that “Master,” but… it sounded a bit like a woman’s voice.

Damn it! An identity suddenly flashed in Yu Xian’s mind!

Minmin Temür! The Princess Zhao Min from *The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber*, with the Han name Zhao Min!

A supremely intelligent woman capable of having so many experts by her side, coming from the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, who liked to appear in the Jianghu under a Han identity while plotting against the Central Plains Jianghu forces! She was a woman who could manipulate the martial artists of the Central Plains Jianghu in the palm of her hand!

If it really was that woman, her scheme would not be small.

Yu Xian felt that his mind might not be able to match Zhao Min’s. He needed to use magic to fight magic—that meant Huang Rong. Huang Rong was known as the Zhuge Liang among women. He needed to go back and tell Huang Rong about this Zhao Min’s information.

“Guo Jing has no other activity; his daily trajectory is the same. However, Huang Rong has returned!”

“Oh? Huang Rong returned? Wasn’t it said that she divorced him? Is the rumor that Guo Jing cannot be intimate with women and thus divorced Huang Rong true or false? Could it be a tactic by Huang Rong to mislead us into coming? Why else would Huang Rong return at this time?” The “Master’s” tone was full of doubt.

“Guo Jing does not approach women, so we cannot verify this matter. However, after Huang Rong returned, she first went to the neighboring Yu Residence. She is also currently staying at the Yu Residence.”

“The Yu Residence? Has that family been investigated?”

“That family is very mysterious. We only know the main family’s surname is Yu. They arrived in Xiangyang only a few months ago, and they only interact with Guo Jing’s family. The women living there are very reclusive, but today it seems the male head of the household returned with Huang Rong.”

“Returned with Huang Rong? Huang Rong is still staying at the Yu Residence?”

“Yes!”

“Investigate the identities of the people in the Yu Residence as soon as possible and closely monitor Huang Rong’s movements. Huang Rong is the variable in our plan.”

“Yes!”

“You may withdraw.”

“Your subordinate takes his leave.”

Yu Xian heard everything clearly from under the rafters. So his identity hadn’t been discovered yet. Indeed, although there were legends about him in the Jianghu, very few people had actually seen him.

After arriving in Xiangyang, he and Ning Zhongze rarely went out; they mostly practiced martial arts within their residence, or at most visited the neighboring Guo Residence. It was normal for the people of Xiangyang not to recognize him.

“Princess, it’s getting late; you should rest now.”

“Mm.”

The sound of changing clothes came from the room.

“Princess”? It’s confirmed! It really is that calculating woman, Zhao Min.

Should he just abduct her? As long as Zhao Min is gone, that supposed layout cannot be implemented; the entire group would lose its brain!

Yu Xian was calculating the possibility of abducting Zhao Min.

Although he could come and go freely, taking one person away would surely expose him. Perhaps he should just assassinate her directly? That was something to consider!

But not now. His main purpose today was to investigate the opponent’s identity. Now that he knew who they were, he also knew the experts surrounding her.

Yu Xian found an opportunity and slipped out of Zhao Min’s residence, then quietly returned home.

When Yu Xian returned home, he went straight to Ning Zhongze’s room.

On the first night back, he naturally had to spend quality time with Ning Zhongze.

“You went out?” Ning Zhongze was also not asleep. She was slightly surprised to see Yu Xian enter in his black attire, then rose, intending to help him change his clothes.

She had thought Yu Xian was going to Huang Rong’s room tonight, but unexpectedly, he had gone out.

“Don’t move; I can do it myself.” Yu Xian quickly stopped Ning Zhongze, stripped off his clothes, and then lay down directly beside Ning Zhongze, pulling her into his embrace.

“Go to Mo Chou’s and Long’er’s place, or go to Sister Rong’s. I’ll be too noisy at night.” Ning Zhongze hadn’t expected Yu Xian to move so quickly. By the time she realized what was happening, Yu Xian was already holding her. But she was heavily pregnant now, and sleeping poorly at night would affect Yu Xian.

“No, I’ll stay here and keep you company, Sister Ning. You’ve had a hard time these past few months when I wasn’t home.” Yu Xian lightly kissed Ning Zhongze’s cheek, just a peck, with no further action.

Hearing this, Ning Zhongze felt moved.

“If you want to, be careful…” Ning Zhongze shyly nestled further into Yu Xian’s arms.

Yu Xian didn’t move; he just held Ning Zhongze tighter.

“Sister Ning, we have many days ahead of us. The relatively safe period for a woman during pregnancy is between three and seven months. Intercourse in the early or late stages is not good.” Yu Xian educated Ning Zhongze on the safe cycle for intercourse during pregnancy.

“How does a big man like you know so much?” Ning Zhongze asked Yu Xian suspiciously. Was this something a man would pay attention to?
