"Who the hell are you?"
Hi Dog and the others quietly surrounded Ruan Lie.
At a single command from Old Ninth, they could attack his convoy immediately.
"Ruan Lie, the Ruan Family's eldest son."
"Ruan Lie..."
Old Ninth frowned, took out his phone, and searched through the information Xiao Yuan had sent him.
"The Ruan Family's eldest son, but not a legitimate son. Born of a concubine."
Old Ninth looked up at him, confirmed he had the right person, and continued reading. "Extremely ambitious. Secretly trains death soldiers. His struggle with Ruan Xing for leadership of the family has reached the point of irreconcilable hostility."
"That information... heh."
Ruan Lie did not ask where Old Ninth had obtained such confidential information.
Because Old Ninth certainly would not tell him.
In fact, Shu Dong had gathered all this information.
This was Xiao Yuan's skill at laying plans.
After things ended on Kou Island, she had arranged for Shu Dong to infiltrate Fei Island. By now, he was already a very important piece on the board.
Ruan Lie also took out his phone and read out the information he had uncovered.
"Old Ninth, Chun Prefecture's Peerless King, one of the Overlord’s Sworn Sons. Received a book from White Garment. One of the three Stewards in Chun Prefecture capable of commanding the entire prefecture."
"Unhinged, petty, suffers from depression, mania, and over a dozen other psychological disorders."
"Meticulous, favors the unexpected, has no bottom line."
After exchanging their information, both men smiled at the same time.
Clearly, they knew each other inside out.
"You'd make a good partner."
Ruan Lie stepped forward with a smile and held out his hand. "Pleasure to meet you."
"Partner?"
Old Ninth did not offer his hand. He glanced doubtfully at the men Ruan Lie had brought.
