Open up and break into another world

"Yu Bo."

The eldest Great Elder, the most senior, who had been silent all along, finally spoke: "Mu Qing's revenge must be taken, without a doubt.

However, the Imperial City is currently facing turbulent times, a critical period where every decision you make will affect the rise and fall of the Lin family; the matter of revenge must be carefully planned, and you must not let hatred cloud your judgment."

Lin Yu Bo took a deep breath, trying to remain calm: "Yes, Uncle Hai, I will first inform the First Prince."

"That's the right thing to do." After Lin Hai finished speaking, he narrowed his eyes again; as if speaking a few words was a tiring task for such an elderly man.

However, the Lin family's higher-ups present all knew that this seemingly frail old man was actually incredibly powerful, not at all inferior to the family head, Lin Yu Bo.

It was precisely because of his strength, coupled with his high prestige, that Lin Hai's words carried significant weight within the family; even Lin Yu Bo wouldn't dare to contradict him.

Lin Yu Bo transmitted the situation and his thoughts to the First Prince, and soon received a reply.

After reading the reply, Lin Yu Bo couldn't help but reveal a look of joy.

"What did the First Prince say?" the surrounding elders all asked.

"The First Prince is currently receiving distinguished guests and it's inconvenient for him to talk in detail," Lin Yu Bo said.

"However, the First Prince said that we should be prepared, and he will give us a chance to kill Xu Ming."

Give us a chance to kill Xu Ming?

"Then that's easy!" The elders all revealed joyful expressions.

In their view, killing Xu Ming wasn't difficult; Xu Ming wasn't an Innate Realm martial artist after all, and any one of the elders could easily kill him.

What was difficult was that Xu Ming was hiding in the Wild Desolate Martial Academy, and they simply didn't have a chance to strike.

"It's just a pity that Quan Xin doesn't know where she's hiding; we can't even find a trace of her for the time being!" Elder Lin Yu Cheng said, "Otherwise, killing them both together would allow Mu Qing to rest in peace sooner."

"Dare to kill my son, I don't care where she hides, even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, I will dig her out!" Lin Yu Bo said through gritted teeth.

… …

As the master of the Wild Desolate Martial Academy, Gu Hanmo naturally possessed a very powerful intelligence network.

Even if she hadn't deliberately tried to find out, by the evening, news about Xu Ming being wanted for killing Lin Muqing reached her ears in great detail.

"Lin Muqing?" Gu Hanmo didn't even have much of an impression of the name.

"It's no big deal that he's dead…

The upper echelons of the entire Flying Cloud Kingdom understood that the Wild Desolate Martial Academy was a very transcendent holy land in the Flying Cloud Kingdom.

Even if the Flying Cloud Kingdom was in great chaos, no one would dare to bring the trouble to the Wild Desolate Martial Academy.

Thinking of this, Gu Hanmo left her pavilion and slowly strolled towards Xu Ming's small building.

Xu Ming's small building was still lit; candlelight flickered, projecting two shadows onto the window screen.

"Eh? Two people?" Gu Hanmo was a little surprised, "It's so late, who is still in Xu Ming's room? Wen Shuai, or Sun Ji?"

Gu Hanmo didn't think too much and continued to walk forward.

However, when Gu Hanmo was about to walk to the side of the small building, she suddenly stopped.

"This shadow seems to be a… woman?" Gu Hanmo's beautiful eyes widened, "How could there be a woman! ?"

Woman?

So late at night, there's actually a woman in Xu Ming's room?

At this moment, Gu Hanmo couldn't say what she was feeling; but for some reason, she felt a strange sense of sourness in her heart.

"You stinky rascal, you lecherous wolf!" Gu Hanmo's cheeks were flushed with anger, "You actually found a woman from somewhere, and even brought her back to the Martial Academy to spend the night! — What kind of place is the Wild Desolate Martial Academy?

It's a sacred place for seeking martial arts and the Dao, not a brothel for romance and love! I… I…"

Gu Hanmo was so angry that she didn't know what to say.

"Hmph!"

She paced back and forth angrily, seemingly wanting to find something to vent her anger on.

It's just that Gu Hanmo actually forgot that things like male disciples bringing women back to spend the night, female disciples bringing men back to spend the night, and even male disciples bringing men back to spend the night, and female disciples bringing women back to spend the night — these things are all very normal in the Wild Desolate Martial Academy.

After all, martial arts practitioners are full of energy, so it's all understandable!

Gu Hanmo herself didn't know why something that was clearly understandable would make her so angry.

"Hmph, this Xu Ming really doesn't let people rest easy!

His current age is truly the golden age of cultivation; at this time, he's actually spending his energy on other miscellaneous things!

It's simply wasting his talent…" Gu Hanmo thought, this must be the reason why she was angry.

Yes, it must be this reason.

It's disappointing that he's not living up to his potential!

"No, I have to lecture him!"

Gu Hanmo was about to step forward to knock on the door, when she suddenly thought, "What if I see something I shouldn't see?"

"Hmph!"

After thinking it over, Gu Hanmo snorted heavily and turned to leave.

"You just die on a woman's belly!"

However, just as Gu Hanmo was about to leave in a huff, a voice came from inside the house.

"Hey, hey, hey, I say, lady, this is my house, okay? You're just here for refuge, don't make so many demands! Just sleep in the living room!" This was Xu Ming's voice.

"Hmm? Refuge? Sleep in the living room?" Gu Hanmo couldn't help but perk up, stopping her footsteps – the plot seemed to be different from what she had imagined!

"Let's listen more!" Gu Hanmo moved closer again.

"Xu Ming, do you even know how to cherish women? How can you let a weak woman like me sleep in the living room? Are you even a man?"

A woman's voice came out, and Gu Hanmo deeply sympathized – Yeah, do you even know how to cherish women? How can you let a weak woman sleep in the living room? You're not a man at all!

But for some reason, discovering that Xu Ming was so "not a man," Gu Hanmo felt a hidden joy in her heart.

"Weak woman? This weak woman almost killed me, and now she's going to kill Lin Muqing – you call that a weak woman?"

"Why not, why not, why not?" Quan Xin jumped, "Besides, it's so dangerous for me to sleep in the living room! What if you sneak out of the bedroom while I'm asleep at night, and then…"

"Come on, I'm not that bored, okay!" Although Xu Ming didn't deny that as a normal man, he would inevitably have impulses when seeing a beautiful woman; however, Xu Ming wasn't the kind of man who thought with his lower body.

"If you're not that bored, then let me sleep on the bed! At least the bedroom has a lock, so I can sleep more peacefully!"

The newest novels are first published on 6 9 books bar!!

The two argued endlessly over who would sleep in the bedroom and who would sleep in the living room.

"Killed Lin Muqing?" Gu Hanmo understood immediately upon thinking about it outside, "No wonder my intelligence said that Quan Xin disappeared after entering the Desolate Martial Manor; so she was hiding here!"

Immediately, Gu Hanmo thought angrily, "This assassin is really something, killing someone and then hiding at the employer's place. What's that supposed to mean!"

Thinking of this, Gu Hanmo tried her best to maintain a friendly smile, and then stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?"

The argument inside stopped, and Xu Ming asked.

"Me."

With just one word, Xu Ming recognized it – Gu Hanmo!

This was the male voice that Gu Hanmo changed to after disguising herself as a man.

Xu Ming quickly opened the door: "Manor Lord Gu, why are you here?"

"I came to remind you of something." Gu Hanmo entered unceremoniously, while her eyes unceremoniously sized up Quan Xin, "You offered a reward to kill Lin Muqing, the Lin family will definitely try every means to kill you recently. During this time, you should stay in the Martial Manor and don't go out – rest assured, it's absolutely safe within the Desolate Martial Manor."

"Okay!" Xu Ming didn't have anything to go out for anyway.

Moreover, with the imperial succession imminent, even if it was just to slightly increase Wen Shuai's chances of winning, it was better to avoid trouble.

"Oh? And this is…?" Gu Hanmo asked knowingly.

"Quan Xin." Xu Ming said unhappily, "She just killed Lin Muqing for no reason, and now she's running here to seek refuge."

"If you didn't offer a reward, why would I have taken it?" Quan Xin argued.

However, while arguing, Quan Xin's eyes glanced subtly at Gu Hanmo; she always felt that Gu Hanmo's gaze towards her was somewhat malicious.

"Why is this Manor Lord Gu always looking at me? Could it be that the dignified Manor Lord of the Desolate Martial Manor is just like those stinky men?" Quan Xin didn't have any "scanning" cheat, and didn't know that Gu Hanmo was actually disguised as a man; she realized that Gu Hanmo's eyes had never left her since entering the door, and couldn't help but panic, thinking that this Manor Lord Gu had taken a liking to her.

"Xu Ming is still more reliable! Although he's stingy and won't even let me have the bedroom, at least his eyes are much more upright!" Quan Xin thought to herself.

Only Quan Xin didn't know that it wasn't that Xu Ming was so pure, but that Xu Ming had seen countless love action art films from various countries, and his heart, if not cultivated to be as solid as a rock, wouldn't pounce on a beautiful woman like a dog.

Xu Ming wasn't a saint, but he wasn't a stallion either.

"I seemed to hear you two arguing about something outside just now?" Gu Hanmo said.

Quan Xin quickly said: "No… nothing!"

Xu Ming smiled and said: "It's nothing, it's just that I told her to sleep in the living room, but she insists on snatching my bedroom!"

"Xu Ming, that's not right of you!" Gu Hanmo chided, "How can you let a girl sleep in the living room?"

Quan Xin should have been happy to hear Gu Hanmo speaking in her favor, but for some reason, she couldn't be happy. Moreover, Quan Xin always felt that Gu Hanmo's words had a hypocritical air like a leader making a speech.

Sure enough, immediately after, Quan Xin heard Gu Hanmo say: "I think it's inconvenient for Quan Xin to sleep here, why not go sleep at my place!"

Sleep at your place!?

Xu Ming already knew that Gu Hanmo was disguised as a man, and didn't feel anything wrong upon hearing this.

But Quan Xin didn't know that Gu Hanmo was actually a woman! Upon hearing Gu Hanmo speak so "frivolously," a shameful anger immediately appeared on her face: "Manor Lord Gu, I respect you as a big shot; but I really didn't expect that you would be this kind of person too!"
