“Cdrink…”

“Young Master Chen, you’re such a good drinker-”

The lights on Parasol Street were dazzling, and the sound of clinking cups and singing rang out everywhere.

Behind the buildings, a ghostly black shadow was moving in the darkness. In a moment, it arrived at the dark alley behind the Golden Screen Building.

Ye Jingtang was wearing a bamboo hat and night clothes. He leaned against the wall and listened carefully. After distinguishing from the noisy chatter for a long time, he caught a conversation.

“In terms of luck, His Highness’s luck is still the best. What am 1…”

“Oh- Young Master Xu, don’t be humble. You won a lot of money from His Highness today. If you don’t treat everyone tomorrow, His Highness won’t let you off…”

“Of course.”

The voices were coming from a window on the east side of the second floor of the main building. Hearing this, Ye Jingtang jumped up and climbed up the tall building like a gecko. He hung upside down under the eaves and prepared to sneak into the main building.

But at this moment, sabnormal movements appeared in the distance.

Ye Jingtang frowned and quietly hid under the eaves. From the corner of his eye, he looked at the courtyard behind the wall.

This courtyard was where carriages were parked in the Golden Screen Building. There were many horses, a few large carriages, and sworkers who took care of them here. In the dead of night, the workers were leaning on chairs and dozing off.

There was a wall between the main building complex and the carriage parking space. The carriages entered and exited from the side of the main building complex and went onto Parasol Street in front. VIPs also alighted at the side door.

At this moment, an old man with a goatee walked out of the main building complex with a cane. His footsteps were silent, and it looked like his martial arts skills were not low.

Ye Jingtang wasn’t sure of the other party’s identity, so he continued hanging under the eaves silently and only watched the goateed old man from the corner of his eye.

The goateed old man walked straight through the courtyard with his cane, left through the back door, and entered the dark back alley. He leaned against the courtyard door and began to carefully search the surrounding darkness.

When Ye Jingtang saw this scene, he understood that the old man had indeed discovered a suspicious person approaching. It was most likely related to the little bird just now.

He could leave quietly at this moment, but the other party was alert and didn’t find anyone suspicious. He would definitely be vigilant. It might be even harder to investigate later.

Thinking of this, Ye Jingtang didn’t leave. Instead, he moved along the wall and arrived outside a lighted window. Like a thief, he sneaked in.

Not long after, Fang Shijie, who was looking for traces of the uninvited guest below, discovered a man wearing black clothes and a bamboo hat outside the window in the distance. He frowned slightly and silently approached the vicinity. His legs bent slightly.

Boom!

The next moment, a soft sound like muffled thunder sounded in the dark alley.

Fang Shijie, who was holding the cane with one hand, exerted strength in his feet and stepped heavily with both feet. His body instantly shot into the sky. He clater but arrived first. In an instant, he was under the eaves and stabbing the cane in his hand at the black-clothed man hanging under the eaves.

Just from this move, Ye Jingtang could tell that this goateed old man’s martial arts were extraordinary. But with the current level he displayed, he was not his match.

But if Ye Jingtang showed his true level, it would be no different from embroidering the words ‘current Saber Chief’ on the back of his night clothes. For this reason, he was just like an ordinary cat burglar. He trembled in shock, and then he hooked his right foot on the eaves and yanked fiercely, pulling his body slightly to the side, making the cane narrowly brush past his armpit.

Clang!

Fang Shijie’s attack only pierced a hole in the sleeve on the inner side of the other party’s right arm. There was obvious surprise in his eyes, but his movements were not slow at all. He gently twisted his cane and slapped it to the side!

Bam!

A huge force struck Ye Jingtang’s ribs, and he was knocked down into the alley. He rolled on the ground, flipped over again, and ran wildly out of the alley.

Plop!

Tread, tread, tread…

“Stop!”

When Fang Shijie saw this scene, he knew that the black-clothed man was a Jianghu thief who had cto rob the heir in the middle of the night. But he didn’t dare to be negligent before finding out his identity. Seeing that the black-clothed man wanted to escape, he immediately stepped on the wall and moved horizontally in midair. In an instant, he caught up to the thief again.

Swoosh!

When Ye Jingtang heard the sound of rushing wind rapidly approaching, he felt a little helpless. Then he sped up and grabbed the hilt of the sword behind his back with his right hand.

Clang!

A cold light flashed in the dark alley!

Fang Shijie had just caught up to Ye Jingtang’s back. But before he could stab him, he saw the black-clothed man running in the alley pull out the sword hanging on his back and swing his hand.

This scene looked as though he had pulled out his weapon while escaping and wasn’t preparing to turn around to fight. But Fang Shijie had extensive experience and could tell at a glance that this was Ze Province’s Cloud Water Sword Pool’s extremely sinister move, ‘Turning Back to Look at the Moon’. It was an attack that took people by surprise!

Fang Shijie immediately held his cane horizontally and blocked in front of his heart!

At this moment, Ye Jingtang had already slapped the three-foot-long sword on his left shoulder with the help of his body. The slender blade curved in a half-moon arc around his body, and the tip of the sword accurately pointed at the heart.

Ding!

There was a crisp sound of metal colliding.

Fang Shijie blocked the extremely cunning sword tip. He held the end of the cane with his left hand and pulled it horizontally, pulling the slender sword blade that was no wider than two fingers with the handle of the cane.

Clang!

The slender sword carried a deep and cold light as it slashed toward Ye Jingtang’s neck. Fang Shijie’s right hand moved the cane to the upper right to block the sword slash that would cfrom the right side after Turning Back to Look at the Moon.

However, what Fang Shijie didn’t expect was that his opponent didn’t make a move according to common sense. After Turning Back to Look at the Moon, his figure lowered. Not only did he dodge the head-cutting sword, but he swept his right leg back to attack the lower body.. Then his sword swept backward, slashing diagonally at Fang Shijie’s ribs!
