I chuckled and said, "You're overpraising me."
Madam Chen replied, "I'm just speaking the truth."
She then asked, "How long will it take you to kill Feng Qinian?"
After taking a sip of tea, she continued, "At best, three to five days; at worst, half a month."
Madam Chen gritted her teeth and said, "Alright, I'll wait for your news!"
With that, she stood up and turned to leave.
I watched her retreating figure and couldn't help but smile slightly.
This Madam Chen, while a bit cunning, was still too inexperienced.
She just claimed that my identity had been exposed, but she didn't know that I had already been aware of it.
I came to Nanjiang specifically to investigate Feng Qinian.
Because I suspected that Feng Qinian was colluding with the Yingzhou People and that he was likely one of the masterminds behind the plot against me back then.
That's why I deliberately approached Madam Chen; I wanted to use her to find Feng Qinian.
As for why Madam Chen wanted to kill Feng Qinian, it was probably because he had a grudge against her husband.
After all, Madam Chen's father had once had his hands chopped off by Feng Qinian's subordinates. This was a grudge she would definitely want to avenge.
However, she still didn't know that she had already been targeted by Feng Qinian.
Feng Qinian had long been colluding with the Yingzhou People, preparing to seize the One Million Taels intended for disaster relief from Haining Jishantang. This amount was to be personally escorted by Qi Ziyue to Chuan Prefecture.
If Madam Chen truly hired someone to assassinate Feng Qinian, it would mean she was making an enemy of the Yingzhou People. At that point, not only would she be in danger, but her entire family would be at risk as well.
Therefore, I must eliminate Feng Qinian before she takes action.
I finished my tea and walked out of the restaurant, heading towards the inn.
Just as I reached a street, I suddenly heard the sounds of a fight in the distance.
I stopped and looked in the direction of the noise, where I saw a man in a blue robe engaged in a fierce battle with a dozen black-clad individuals in an alley ahead.
The man in the blue robe was tall and strong, skilled in martial arts; with one palm strike, a black-clad man fell down.
However, there were too many black-clad individuals, all of whom were experts, so the man in blue was struggling and gradually falling into a tough fight.
After watching for a while, I immediately drew my short knife and rushed over.
Seeing me, the black-clad individuals shouted, "Another one! Take him down!"
With that, seven or eight black-clad men lunged at me.
I let out a cold laugh, swung my short knife, and engaged them in battle.
Although these black-clad individuals were skilled fighters, they were still far from my level.
With just a few strikes, I knocked them all to the ground.
The remaining few black-clad men were terrified at the sight and shouted, "Wind tight, pull call!"
As they spoke, they turned and ran away.
I did not chase after them but turned to the man in the green robe and asked, "Are you alright?"
The man in the green robe shook his head and said, "I'm fine, thank you for saving me."
I looked at him and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you must be Qi Ziyue, right?"
The man in the green robe was taken aback for a moment and asked, "You know me?"
I smiled lightly and replied, "The famous Southern Province's Number One Hero, who doesn't know you?"
Qi Ziyue pondered for a moment and asked, "May I know your name?"
I said, "My name is Ye Yifan."
Qi Ziyue exclaimed in surprise, "You are Ye Yifan?"
I nodded and replied, "Yes."
Qi Ziyue said with excitement, "I've heard of you. You are from the Military Secret Intelligence Division, specifically dealing with spies. You're a hero!"
