Chapter 10 Anyu Gang
Cai Tian's eyes widened. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. The weight of Luis's words hit him like a hammer, without knowing what to do in this situation.
"No need to be so restrained," Luis said casually
Cai Tian thought of something and hurriedly walked toward the pavilion to take out the further part of Turtle martial arts. Without saying a word, he handed it to Luis, his hand shaking slightly.
Luis took it and didn't even glance at it.
'I'll look at this later when I'm back in my own world.'
"I still need to complete my mission," Luis said with authority. "If you find anything suspicious, report it to me."
Cai Tian nodded vigorously hearing. He didn't dare to disobey the rule of the royal court.
Luis said nothing more. He turned and began walking out of the courtyard, his mind already shifting to the next stage of his journey. In the future, when he gets stronger, he will give Cai Tian a chance to advance to Innate, as he promised.
-----
Luis was walking around the busy streets of city for one final time. He will not stay here any longer, but travel to other big cities, hoping to find out about immortal cultivators.
Suddenly, a loud cry broke his train of thoughts.
"Dad, don't leave me!" The voice was desperate and full of fear.
Luis stopped and glanced towards the source of the commotion. A group of thugs surrounded a little girl, their faces rough and mean. The dad of the girls was also with them.
He was a thin man with beard stubbles in his face. He had a pouch in hand, and his face was full of hesitation. This situation was very clear, the father was selling his daughter to those thugs.
"Aihan, don't worry," the father said weakly. "I'll come back for you after I make enough money." His words were empty, a lie probably no one would believe.
The girl stopped crying, her eyes desperate staring at her father. Her own father sold her, and now her fate was clear. She will be made prostitute by these thugs.
Without wasting any more time, thugs began to drag the girl roughly. Her father didn't fight them. He just stood there, watching and clinging to his pouch.
Luis watched all of this silently without any interference. This kind of similar scenes, he has already many times in this city.
'This world has its own rules and culture, and I am not strong enough to change it,' he reminded himself, 'In my world there are slaves and serfs too'
'But at least there is no such bad culture in my barony'
This wouldn't have happened in his barony, under the protection of the Hartmann family. He can change the rules in his own territory as he is a young master of the Hartmann family. But he is still too weak now, one day he will be strong enough to change the rule everywhere.
-----
In the shadows, a group of people were observing Luis.
"This is the guy in the portrait."
"Wait, let me check," another guy said as he took out a portrait from his body. "Yes, it is the same."
The group of people began looking at each other.
"Let's get him now!" one of them urged. "This brat's been making our Anyu Gang look bad for days."
"I'll teach him a lesson he won't forget,"
"We've been searching for two days, and here he is just wandering around like nothing."
As they murmured and began to approach Luis, a voice stopped them.
"No, don't go, he is dangerous."
The group suddenly stopped and looked at the source of voice. It was a boy who looked young.
"That guy is dangerous," the boy again reminded.
A guy with bald head narrowed his eyes and looked at him.
"What do you mean, kid? If we don't catch him now, he'll escape!" He frowned and couldn't help but express his doubt. This kid is a new recruit but very smart, and this time there must be reason too.
"Scarface and Baldy were all killed brutally without any sign of resistance. Their group was at the 1st and 2nd stages of bodybuilding, and we are not much stronger than them either. You understand what I mean, right?" The thin boy, whose name was Xiao Wei, reminded
The group broke out in cold sweat at the reminder of Xiao Wei. They really hadn't thought of this. If they were reckless, they might have been brutally killed naked and become infamous like the Scarface group.
"What should we do then?"
"One guy needs to keep an eye on him, and others need to go to different posts of Anyu Gang and inform the squad leaders." Xiao Wei suggested the best solution,
"Only by surrounding him, we have chance to capture him."
The group member nodded when they heard this.
"So, who will stay to keep an eye on him?" Baldhead asked with uncertainty. He was the leader of this group, but Xiao Wei acted more like a leader than him.
"I will keep an eye on him. You can go inform the squad leaders." Xiao Wei said, "I cannot trust you reckless guy on this job."
The others got angry at his remarks but didn't argue. They quickly scattered in different directions to gather reinforcements.
Xiao Wei watched all this with thoughtfulness and glanced towards Luis. Luis was already walking towards another direction.
'I think i need to change forces again'
----
Xiao Wei followed closely, keeping a careful distance from Luis. The longer he watched Luis, the stronger his instincts screamed at him to be cautious. Something about him was... very off.
'I am already noticed by him,' Xiao Wei realized suddenly. Luis's movements were too deliberate, too smooth. He was aware of being followed.
He followed Luis all around the market as Luis was entering different stores and buying a lot of seeds.
'Where are all the things he bought going?'
The more time he followed, the more dangerous his instinct warned. He was silently following when he suddenly saw Luis entering an alley.
Xiao Wei looked around the alley, which was secluded with a smaller number of people.
'I am not going inside.'
He still remembers how Scarface and his group died inside the alley. He backed away and hurried around the block, hoping to catch Luis on the other side.
'This is dangerous, the feeling he gives me is stronger than even the leader of Anyu Gang.'
