Chapter 1221 1221: Nighttime Infiltration of the Yuan Family

Nighttime.

After Lin Fei and Jin Zongfan finished dinner, they returned to the courtyard specially arranged for their stay.

The two of them began drinking tea served by the servants in the pavilion. Lin Fei then dismissed all the servants from the pavilion.

After the pavilion doors were closed, Jin Zongfan suddenly turned to Lin Fei with a serious expression and said, "Master, you need to be cautious of Huang Shutong. The Huang family is not only one of the ten great families of Ten Thousand Swords City, but they are also on good terms with the Yue family and have had frequent exchanges.

Even though it's well-known that Huang Shutong admires the eldest Miss of the Yue family, Yue Yuyao, and since the Yue family was destroyed by you, Huang Shutong might harbor ill intentions towards you."

Lin Fei finally understood why Huang Shutong was so cold and hostile towards him upon their first meeting. It turned out the Huang family was friendly with the Yue family, and Huang Shutong had fallen for the eldest Miss of the Yue family.

However, even knowing all this, Lin Fei's expression remained calm as he said, "So that's it, but I'm not afraid of him. I hope he won't do anything he shouldn't, or I will not be polite to him."

Then, Lin Fei looked at Jin Zongfan and asked, "Sect Leader Jin, can you tell me about the second young master of the Wan family, what sort of person is he?"

Lin Fei was not only very interested in the details about the second young master of the Wan family but was also very curious about the Wan family itself.

Jin Zongfan said, "The second young master of the Wan family, Wan Jingxuan, is infamous in Ten Thousand Swords City for being a playboy who loves beautiful women. It's unknown how many girls he's ruined, but it's said he seems very taken with the eldest Miss of the Yue family, Yue Yuyao, though she doesn't seem to have feelings for him."

"This Yue Yuyao seems quite extraordinary?" Lin Fei couldn't help but remark.

Jin Zongfan nodded, "Yes, Yue Yuyao, Wan Jingxuan, Huang Shutong, and Qiu Qiming are all students of Ten Thousand Swords Academy. Yue Yuyao is the campus belle of this top cultivation academy in Ten Thousand Swords City, and her strength is exceptional. She is the object of admiration for many elite family scions."

Lin Fei said, "Then how come I didn't see this eldest Miss of the Yue family when I took over Yue Family Peak?"

Jin Zongfan replied, "She has always been at Ten Thousand Swords Academy, and since it's under the direct control of the City Lord, we didn't dare to rashly invade the academy to capture Yue Yuyao, Yue Peng, and the other young misses of the Yue family."

Lin Fei already knew that after he destroyed the parties responsible within the Yue family, the remaining members of the Yue family hid in Ten Thousand Swords Academy, which was under the city lord's protection.

Of course, Lin Fei doesn't know that Yue Peng and others have hidden in Huang Shutong's home, and he also doesn't know that Yue Yuyao is hiding in Wan Jingxuan's Wan Family Garden.

"Well, if they're hiding in Ten Thousand Swords Academy, let them stay there; we don't need to offend the city lord to deal with them." Lin Fei didn't pay much attention to Yue Yuyao, Yue Peng, or the other remaining members of the Yue family.

"Tell me about the Wan family."

"Yes, the City Lord's name is Wan Tianqing, and he has three sons. The second is Wan Jingxuan. Although Wan Jingxuan's strength has earned him the title of Saint Heir at Ten Thousand Swords Academy, the most formidable Saint Heir in Ten Thousand Swords City is the eldest young master, Wan Jingyuan." Jin Zongfan then proceeded to share what he knew about the Wan family.

Wan Jingyuan is the most hopeful candidate to succeed Wan Tianqing and become the future City Lord of Ten Thousand Swords City, and ten days from now, during the city-wide competition, City Lord Wan Tianqing is very likely to support Wan Jingyuan's rise."

Lin Fei pondered on Wan Jingxuan, the unruly second young master of the Wan family, and asked, "Does Wan Jingxuan not want to become City Lord?"

Jin Zongfan's lips curled into a slight smile, "In my opinion, he does want to be City Lord. It's just that his older brother, Wan Jingyuan, is too outstanding, overshadowing him.

If I'm not mistaken, Wan Jingxuan's usual mingling with women, projecting an image of only caring about leisure and enjoyment, is actually a cover for his ambition, and he might be quietly amassing power for the right moment to act."

Lin Fei hadn't expected Jin Zongfan to see so clearly, and he also thought this Wan Jingxuan wasn't a simple character.

But he had no interest in the open and hidden jockeying within the Wan family.

His reason for thoroughly inquiring about Wan Jingxuan and the Wan family's background was more to guard against any potential harm they might inflict on him.

Standing from his chair, Lin Fei said to Jin Zongfan, "Do you know where the City Lord's Yuan family is located in this Thousand Dragon City?"

Jin Zongfan responded, "I know the Yuan family, as the City Lord's family, occupies its own peak, where they have constructed the Yuan family hall. Why does the master ask about the Yuan family?"

Lin Fei naturally wouldn't reveal his intention of asking about the Yuan family's location, which was to rescue Yuan Yuxi. Instead, he said, "I got to know the eldest young master of the Yuan family elsewhere long ago, and we're old friends, so I thought I'd visit him for a drink and a chat before his wedding in three days."

Jin Zongfan thought of Lin Fei's strength, aware that the Yue family, one of the ten great families of Ten Thousand Swords City, was wiped out by him. He didn't doubt that such a person could have ties with the eldest young master of the Yuan family.

"Then, Master, let me take you to the Yuan family," Jin Zongfan immediately said.

Lin Fei considered that there were indeed some aspects of his visit to the Yuan family where he would need Jin Zongfan's assistance, so he nodded, "Very well, lead the way."

The two then exited the pavilion.

Lin Fei instructed the guards in the courtyard, "If the second young master asks where I've gone, just tell him I went for a walk and there's no need to look for me."

The guards answered, "Yes, Young Master Lin."

Lin Fei and Jin Zongfan then flew away from the manor.

The Yuan Family City Lord's Mansion is perched on a majestic peak within the mountain range of Thousand Dragon City.

This peak, though located within the mountain range, stands independently about a kilometer away from the busy urban area with towering structures.

Under the glow of the nighttime moon, you could see the Yuan Family City Lord's Mansion, with its layers upon layers of palaces, at a glance containing dozens of grand structures, the scene majestic and awe-inspiring.

Every palace in the Yuan Family City Lord's Mansion was brightly lit, and a golden plaque above the main palace doors bore the words, "City Lord's Mansion."

In front of the City Lord's Mansion's gates was a very spacious square, around which dozens of Yuan family cultivators stood guard.

A thousand meters away, on the rooftop of a skyscraper over a hundred stories high, Lin Fei surveyed the movements of the Yuan Family City Lord's Mansion, then turned to Jin Zongfan beside him and said, "The Yuan family's defenses are extremely tight, an ordinary person couldn't possibly enter. I'll go in alone; you wait here. If anything happens, return to the Wan family's manor."

Jin Zongfan hadn't expected that Lin Fei would proceed without him into the Yuan family.

However, he still complied, "Yes, Master."

Swish.

Lin Fei darted forward like a swift swallow in the night, his figure quickly advancing towards the peak where the Yuan Family City Lord's Mansion was located.

The guards and elite cultivators on the plaza of the peak at the City Lord's Mansion managed to catch only a glimpse of a fleeting shadow, disappearing into the series of palaces in the Yuan Family City Lord's Mansion.

But these cultivators were seasoned warriors of the Yuan family; they promptly realized an intruder had entered the City Lord's Mansion.

"Intruder alert!"

"An intruder has entered the City Lord's Mansion!"

"Everyone, catch the intruder!"

Instantly, all the elite cultivators on the plaza began shouting.

In no time, the entire City Lord's Mansion was in an uproar.

You could see numerous palaces releasing multiple Yuan family cultivators into the air, each wielding swords emanating a glow of holy energy, searching everywhere for the intruder.

Meanwhile, on the ground, numerous cultivators were conducting a thorough search.
