The Lightning Driver
Chapters. 180. Staking out
Taking over and bearing the brunt of the Alchemist Association's troubles on his own shoulders, Gou Long had been settled in the Alchemist Association for these six days. He requested a private space specifically from the Association on the grounds of taking up a closed cultivation.
Gou Long had advised not to come out of private space during taking up such closed cultivation, but this had become his habit of acting in secret, but this was already his habit of acting in secret, including the reason for taking the closed cultivation as a diversion only so that people do not know what is done even though it is the people closest to him.
It had been five consecutive nights of Gou Long coming out of his bedroom window and darting around under the coldness of the night of Tian Yu City, wearing the typical black suit of night walkers also equipped him with black robes belonging to the Organization of the Black Demon Order.
His appearance feels more complete because he wears two masks at once, namely a thin mask that changes the look of his face into a young man aged 25-27 years with a thin mustache neatly arranged above the lips, as well as the beak masks of the eagle belonging to the Organization.
Gou Long felt the need to take such action, he was well aware of what was done all along always in the shadow of the enemy, he said, with an appearance like this Gou Long went to strategic places that were once marked by Tan Koai.
Gou Long would also not let go of the group that intercepted him a week ago, these mysterious people must have been residents of Tian Yu City, and their leader must have been an influential person.
People who do not have power cannot move such subordinates just to intercept them, after all, the subordinates are also very obedient to the leader.
And the most important of those people was, they knew Gou Long would appear on the road between the center of Tian Yu City and Lotus Mountain. Where did those people know Gou Long lived in Lotus Mountain?
With that in mind, Gou Long's greatest suspicion fell on the ruler of Tian Yu City, Gu Chuisan. Accompanied by Eira, Gou Long had already stalked the Tian Yu City Sovereign Mansion for two nights.
Since it was snow season, Eira was almost all the time on his shoulders, the white fox did not want to be in a robe or in a slave ring.
This was the sixth night he came out, then darted swiftly towards the City Sovereign Mansion. Although so far he had not obtained any important information, but he did not give up so easily, his premonition and sharp instincts forced Gou Long to continue searching for the secret in the area of the City Sovereign Mansion.
Tonight as soon as they arrived there, Gou Long darted over the high wall and directly moved into the back garden that was in the City Sovereign Mansion. The science of lightening his tall body makes it very easy to move without being caught by the guards.
Gou Long picked out one of the pek trees growing in the garden, he hid behind the dense snow-covered leaves of the pack tree, and spread his sense of spiritual awareness.
From one of the building rooms in the City Ruler Mansion area, Gou Long saw a bright light still illuminating the room, he widened his spiritual awareness and increased his auditory acuity.
Eira who always perched on Gou Long's boat darted down and went around, with the small body of a white fox like that, especially because the thick snow that filled this yard was very easy for Eira.
Who would care about such a wandering snow fox, just by suppressing its stealth aura alone, a martial artist would assume that he was just a pet.
“Hey! Look at the little fox over there!” shouted one of the two guards of the City Mansion who were patrolling. This person was full of vigor and energy, when it was already midnight, as well as a time for others to rest.
“Ignore it! If we chase the fox it's our job to be abandoned, just focus on the patrol.” His patrol friend reminded. This person looks more lazy, and does not have the spirit of life, like a person who has certain regrets in his life, but because of the demands of work he continues to work and patrol when the middle is like this.
“Iya-iya! I'm just so happy to see a snow white fox that looks so clean.”.
“Hush!..” his uninspired friend, quick cut, “Have Zen brothers heard stories about foxes? It is said that they are the incarnation of a very beautiful female demon.”
“Iya! I've heard it too, but who believes such a ridiculous story? We martial people should focus more on the quality of our own martial arts and cultivation, focus on these two things alone have spent decades of our lifetime.” Answer the passionate man.
The two men, seeing Eira, unwittingly patrol the garden where Gou Long hides among the dense trees.
“Aiih! Regarding martial arts and cultivation, I do not want to talk about it, great jealousy will appear in my heart, if we talk about it.” Back the person who had no spirit spoke, his tone sounded full of envy and regret for his own life.
“I also understood what Brother Thi meant..” His friend said, he also remembered his own cultivation as well as recalling the great events that had recently happened in Tian Yu City, he said, “The newcomer's youngster was very electrifying!..” he continued.
“Iya!.” the person who spoke in a regretful tone back asserted, “The young man was very extraordinary, only a month ago he made an uproar because he managed to concoct pills endowed with Heaven and Earth, which he had given him, and recently again reportedly he has managed to break through to the Heavenly Realm.” Highlight his eyes sharpened, regretting his own life destiny, in his heart he said, “Why I wasn't born to be such a genius.”.
This person was not aware, sometimes geniuses like Gou Long also did not obtain everything directly easily, if he was in a dangerous position like Gou Long had gone through, he might have died ten times a day.
“Regarding the breakthrough of the Heavenly Land of the young man indeed we did not see directly, but..” an energetic person responded to the words of his patrol comrade, “But, when the people of the City Lord returned from hunting five days ago, they left with the number of twenty people, but when they returned those people were only ten people.” Further.
“What is the relationship between the young man who broke through the Heavenly Realm at such a young age with those Mansion Rulers of our City who are out hunting?” ask the person who looks uninspired, curious.
The conversation of the people was clearly heard in Gou Long's ears, he seemed to have found a meeting point that had all this time disappeared, Gou Long ignored the state of the room that was still glowing, Gou Long, and focused his hearing on the conversation of the two patrolmen.
Keeping the aura hidden and keeping a certain distance Gou Long followed the two officers.
The eager officer surnamed Zen and the uninspired Officer surnamed Thi.
