At this moment.

In the backyard of Yuchun Courtyard.

The former Madam Gui stood respectfully outside a quiet side room.

"Come in. Did something happen out front?"

The door to the side room opened gently, and a clear, pleasant female voice emerged.

"Reporting to Madam, the new Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower's Master, Su Chen, has come to our establishment and even requested the newly promoted top courtesan, Qin Lan. This old servant couldn't refuse!"

"I came to report for fear of disrupting Madam's plans."

As Madam Gui spoke, she walked into the side room.

Inside the room, it was very quiet.

Sandalwood incense curled upwards. After entering, she stood with a bow.

"Su Chen, that Su Chen they propped up as a scapegoat for Ling Tianhe, I didn't expect him to come to my Yuchun Courtyard at this time!"

"Has he realized his life is in danger, or does he know his tenure as the Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower's master won't last long, so he's come here to relax and signal to the outside world that he's just a wastrel, hoping they'll lower their guard and spare his life."

The voice continued to speak.

The voice came from behind a string of pearl curtains, and behind the curtains was a beautiful screen as thin as a cicada's wing.

On the screen.

The reflection of a woman with a perfect figure was cast.

The woman's back was to the screen, and no one knew what she was doing.

"This old servant can't tell!"

Madam Gui replied.

"Continue to observe. Perhaps this is our opportunity."

"The Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower's businesses are quite good. Moreover, they have connections with Zitan Palace outside the Great Wall. Perhaps we can use this to connect with Zitan Palace."

The woman known as Madam said.

"This old servant understands!"

Madam Gui accepted the order.

"Also, select a newcomer from the reserve list and find an opportunity to send them to that old fellow Cheng Yang."

"So that old fellow doesn't cause us trouble."

Madam then added.

Cheng Yang is currently the Prefect of Qingcheng City, a lord who commands one side of the Great Zhou.

"Yes! This old servant will take her leave!"

After Madam Gui finished speaking, she bowed and exited the room.

After Madam Gui left, the woman behind the screen slowly stood up.

She walked out from behind the screen.

The woman was around thirty years old, with a seductive figure, exuding the unique aura of a mature woman. Besides her aura, she had a face that could inspire countless fantasies with just one glance.

"I wonder who killed Su Mengbai. Su Mengbai had some connection with that person from Zitan Palace!"

"The reason Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower could become one of Qingcheng's five major powers was with that person's covert support."

"Was the person who killed him targeting him, or targeting Zitan Palace?"

"But this is also our opportunity."

The woman murmured to herself.

What was happening in the backyard.

Su Chen was unaware.

Inside the pink silken curtains.

Su Chen opened his eyes and looked at the beauty lying beside him on the bed, his face filled with a smile.

He glanced at the sky outside.

It was already night, and a full moon hung in the sky.

"Young Master, it's already night. We can continue!"

Qin Lan, beside him, spoke.

Although this was Qin Lan's first time, Yuchun Courtyard was a place where many things were taught, and her skills were quite good.

"Alright, there's nothing to do if I go back anyway. Let's continue!"

Su Chen embraced Qin Lan beside him with a smile.

He didn't want to go back right now. What was there to do if he went back? He was waiting.

Waited to see if anyone would make a move, if anyone would reveal themselves.

For several days, Su Chen did not leave Yuchun Courtyard, as if he had taken root there.

Yuchun Courtyard seemed to have reached an understanding with Su Chen.

It only allowed Qin Lan to attend to Su Chen.

Ling Residence.

Ling Tianhe's mansion.

At this moment, inside his mansion, there were three other people: two elders and one middle-aged man.

They were all supervisors from Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower.

"Deputy楼主, this kid Su Chen is truly outrageous. He's been in Yuchun Courtyard for days and hasn't come out. He's utterly disgracing our Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower."

One of the elders said indignantly.

"Deputy楼主, after so many days and with those people not making a move, can we seize the opportunity to kill Su Chen now?"

The middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

Ling Tianhe shook his head. "What's the rush? It's only been a few days! However, Su Chen does have some cunning to hide in Yuchun Courtyard."

"This is to inform others that he is merely someone who doesn't concern himself with Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower's affairs."

"I underestimated Su Chen."

As Ling Tianhe spoke, his eyes held a frosty glint.

The original plan was to make Su Chen the楼主 of Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower.

Then, they would observe the reactions of those in the shadows.

Unexpectedly, Su Chen had hidden himself away in Yuchun Courtyard.

As he sat in his chair, he tapped his right hand on the table beside him.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Elder Jiang, go to Yuchun Courtyard and tell them that Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower has some matters that require the Tower Lord's return to handle."

"If he's infatuated with Qin Lan of Yuchun Courtyard, buy her out and bring her back with him!"

"Don't give him any chance to refuse!"

"If he handles Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower's affairs and the other party still doesn't make a move, then it will be time for us to eliminate him."

A murderous glint flashed in Ling Tianhe's eyes.

"Yes!"

The elder who had spoken earlier replied.

"Deputy楼主, should we deal with some people in the tower? After all, there are still some who are loyal to Su Mengbai. I fear they might help Su Chen then."

"We don't need to worry about that. After these few days, I will contact Happy Pure Tower and have them handle it. Those people won't live through the night!"

Ling Tianhe said.

"Happy Pure Tower, the largest assassin organization in Lingnan Commandery. It's rumored they've killed martial artists in the late stage of Spirit Refining."

Upon hearing Ling Tianhe's words, the three people in the room's eyes lit up.

Happy Pure Tower's reputation was the most renowned in Lingnan Commandery.

Dealing with those people would be easy.

"Happy Pure Tower is not just the largest assassin organization in our Lingnan Commandery; it's also the second-ranked assassin organization in the Northern Nine Provinces, second only to Ghost Fiend Mansion."

"You don't need to concern yourselves with this matter. First, bring back our楼主, Su Chen."

Ling Tianhe said.

"Yes!" The three bowed to Ling Tianhe and quickly departed.

After the three left.

Ling Tianhe said in a deep voice, "Su Chen, don't blame me, your uncle. The main thing is, I don't know who your father offended, so I can only use your life to test them!"

On the other side.

Su Residence.

In the small building in the backyard.

"Miss, ever since that Su Chen inherited the position of楼主, he's been staying in Yuchun Courtyard and hasn't come out!"

"He's utterly disgracing Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower."

Xiao Lan said indignantly beside Shangguan Ziyun.

However, Shangguan Ziyun, who was sitting there, remained unfazed, her expression calm.

"You underestimate Su Chen with that remark. If he didn't stay there, he would have likely met with trouble already!"

"However, Su Chen's actions are just a minor tactic. Someone doesn't want you to stay there forever!"

"I want to see if you have the ability to break this predicament!"

Shangguan Ziyun said softly.

At this time, in Yuchun Courtyard, inside the side room.

Su Chen sat on a long bench, lost in thought.

It had been several days.

Now that people outside were about to make a move, he, Su Chen, was also going to make a move.

Within these few days.

Although he was in Yuchun Courtyard, his mind had been sorting out some relationships.

Some people who were close to Ling Tianhe.

He wanted to kill some people to see Ling Tianhe's reaction.

As for why he was doing it himself, having arrived in this Jianghu era, he also wanted to experience a baptism of blood.

And then there was the protection of experts, so his safety was guaranteed.
