To offer a treasure like the Jade Dew Spirit Peach as a bounty for his life, this was indeed a bit flattering yet shocking.

”I don’t know!” Lv Hua said.

”There are still things you Secret Martial Guards do not know?” Yang Zhenshan said.

”There are many things that we, Secret Martial Guards, do not know, and I know even less!” Lv Hua replied.

Although the Secret Martial Guards are formidable, they cannot possibly know everything under the heavens.

And Lv Hua, merely being the director of the Secret Martial Guard North Station, does not even know everything within the ranks of the Secret Martial Guards, let alone everything in the world.

”However, there shouldn’t be many people wanting to kill you!” Lv Hua added.

Yang Zhenshan nodded slightly, acknowledging that while not many, there were indeed quite a few who wanted him dead.

Prince Qing and young Prince Wu Tuo, who had just been defeated by him, probably both wanted his life.

As for others, there were likely people in the Capital City who also wanted him dead.

Thinking of the Capital City, Yang Zhenshan’s eyes slightly drooped.

”It seems my journey to the Capital City will not be smooth!” he concluded.

Lv Hua picked up his drink, ”Then I wish General Yang a smooth journey!”

”...”

Not a bit of sincerity!

Yang Zhenshan gulped down a cup of liquor.

...

On the twenty-second of September, the autumn deepens, and the harsh winter approaches.

Yang Zhenshan did not wait for the Yang family members to arrive at Chongshan Pass and left Chongshan Pass first.

He wanted to rush to the Capital City as soon as possible to get more clarity about the court’s situation, as just hearing rumors wasn’t enough to truly understand it.

As for the Yang family moving to Chongshan Pass, naturally, Yang Zhenshan did not need to manage that - Qingyi Yu was enough.

However, Yang Zhenshan did miss Qingyi Yu, as a short separation is better than a wedding; they had not seen each other for several months, and naturally, he missed his wife.

But the matter of becoming an ennobled lord involved too many complications, forcing him to tread carefully.

Moreover, concerns regarding the Mountain River Tower were weighing on his mind, and he had to leave Chongshan Pass to divert attention, ensuring no one targeted the Yang family members.

This time heading to the Capital City, he did not bring many people, only his twenty personal followers.

After delegating responsibilities at the General Mansion, a group of twenty-one riders left Chongshan Pass without any concealment.

As he departed from Chongshan Pass, news about his journey to the Capital City spread across Da Rong.

In Jizhou City, within the Hengdao Sect.

In a room decorated in an ancient style, an old man in a loose Taoist robe sat quietly in front of a chessboard, idly tapping on the chess pieces.

Ji Hai entered the room, saluted the old man with a fist, ”Master! Just received news, General Yang has left Chongshan Pass!”

The old man in front of the chessboard was Ji Zhen, renowned as the number one Martial Arts Master in Liaodong.

As a once notorious Martial Arts Master, Ji Zhen was no ordinary individual, and now, the Hengdao Sect is one of the top Jianghu forces in Jizhou and Liaodong.

”How many people did he bring?”

”Twenty?”

”Only twenty?” Ji Zhen set down his chess piece, looked up, revealing a rosy-cheeked face.

Ji Zhen, now seventy-five years old, did not look very old; instead, he had a somewhat youthful appearance.

”Yes, only twenty,” Ji Hai said, looking down.

Ji Zhen stroked his white beard, ”Go remind General Yang.”

Ji Hai frowned, ”Master!”

Ji Zhen waved his hand, interrupting what he wanted to say, ”I understand your thoughts, but a single Jade Dew Spirit Peach is far from enough for me!”

”Besides, over the years we of the Hengdao Sect have had deep interactions with General Yang. If we were to act now, wouldn’t it contradict the ethical codes of the Jianghu?”

”Such thoughts should not have crossed your mind!”

Ji Hai’s expression stiffened, embarrassed, ”Disciple was greedy!”

”Hehe, I know your intentions well!” Ji Zhen stood up and patted Ji Hai on the shoulder, ”You were also thinking of me!”

The temptation of the Jade Dew Spirit Peach was too great.

Even Ji Hai was moved.

However, Ji Zhen was not tempted, as he said, one Jade Dew Spirit Peach was not sufficient for him.

With that Jade Dew Spirit Peach, he could not enter the Innate Realm.

Without it, he still had a chance to reach the Innate Realm.
