I sat in Tang Chenshung's study, instructing him on how to handle the ransom for the Red Lotus Sect tomorrow night.
"You just need to follow my instructions, and the heir will definitely return safely, I promise," he said with great confidence.
Tang Chenshung thanked me repeatedly.
I smiled, stood up, and walked outside.
After leaving the inn, I took a stroll around the area and bought two bags of oil cakes, along with some sunflower seeds and dried pear slices to take back for dinner.
Mou Xiaoning and Yuan Bufei had already returned and were chatting in his room.
I shared the food with them, smiling as I said, "Let's make do with this for a meal."
Li Dangshi chuckled, "My lord, we are at least wealthy now; why are you still being so stingy?"
I forced a smile, "The wealthy one is Tang Chenshung; we are still broke."
Li Dangshi replied, "Then we should start making some preparations. Tomorrow night is the time for the transaction."
I nodded, "I've already made arrangements."
Li Dangshi was taken aback. "Arrangements? What do you mean?"
I explained, "Tomorrow night, when Ten and Bufei are there, you two will go rescue the heir."
Li Dangshi was startled. "My lord, if we go to rescue someone, what about you?"
I replied calmly, "I have more important things to do."
Li Dangshi asked in confusion, "What things?"
But I didn't answer. Instead, I looked at Mou Xiaoning and said, "Xiao Ning, you and Shisan will come with me to Qiong Mountain tomorrow."
Mou Xiaoning quickly replied, "Yes."
Li Dangshi's expression changed, "My lord, you... you want to go personally?"
I nodded, "That's right."
Li Dangshi exclaimed, "That's too dangerous, you..."
I raised my hand to interrupt him, "I know what I'm doing, you don't need to worry."
Li Dangshi opened his mouth as if to say something more, but ultimately held back.
I looked at Liu Liu and said lightly, "Liu Liu, how are your martial arts?"
Liu Liu was taken aback, "Well... I guess it's okay."
I asked, "How good is it?"
Liu Liu hesitated for a moment and shyly replied, "Anyway... I can handle ten at once without any problem."
I was speechless.
After a moment of silence, he asked, "Are you very brave?"
Liu Liu didn't understand why he was asking such a question and replied blankly, "Well... I guess it's okay."
I said, "I'll ask you again, how brave are you?"
Liu Liu hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth, "My lord, just say it directly. No matter what it is, I'm not afraid!"
A smile appeared on my face as I nodded, "Very good."
Li Dangshi couldn't hold back any longer, "My lord, what exactly do you intend to do?"
I said lightly, "I have something more important for you and Liu Liu to do."
Li Dangshi was taken aback. "What... what is it?"
I looked at him meaningfully. "You need to plan carefully."
Li Dangshi's expression changed. "You... you are going to..."
I raised a finger to his lips and whispered, "Shh, just know that."
Li Dangshi swallowed hard and slowly nodded.
I patted his shoulder and smiled. "Don't worry, although this task seems difficult, with careful planning, it will be easy to execute."
Li Dangshi hesitated and nodded. "I understand."
I continued, "Remember, true skill isn't about using underhanded tactics; you need real ability."
Li Dangshi was startled, his face suddenly turning red as he awkwardly nodded. "I... I will remember."
I smiled and said to Yuan Bufei, " Bufei, you take Thirteen to rest first."
