Rong Xiu said this calmly.

However, Chu Liuyue understood what these words meant. This Peach Blossom Dock… has Rong Xiu’s subordinates!

Chu Liuyue was first shocked and then found it normal. With Rong Xiu’s personality, it would be weird if he didn’t have a backup plan.

When she reacted, she couldn’t help but laugh. “I didn’t hear you mention it before?”

Rong Xiu pondered for a moment. “I didn’t think that I would actually use them today. However, the Black Sword Sect does things very discreetly, and that’s all they found out. Originally, I wanted to tell you about it, but I didn’t expect you to meet.”

Chu Liuyue nodded.

It was already very hard for them to be able to find out about such things. After all, even San San—who always interacted with the Black Sword Sect—only knew half of these things.

If normal people asked around too much, it would inevitably arouse the Black Sword Sect’s suspicions.

“I plan to go to Clear Water Cliff tomorrow.” Chu Liuyue said, “Perhaps we can find some clues regarding Peach Blossom Dock there.”

Rong Xiu knew that she wanted to verify her previous guess, so he smiled and nodded. “I’ll go with you.”

I wasn’t by her side for one day, and this happened. Luckily, it was just a scare. However, I now can’t relax no matter what.

This Peach Blossom Dock was filled with dangers. I naturally have to protect my person personally.

…

A dreamless night.

The next morning, Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu did some light disguising and discreetly followed San San to Clear Water Cliff.

The streets were bustling.

San San brought them to an isolated alley and went straight to the destination.

The three of them were very fast and reached their destination in an hour.

“Master, Your Highness, that is the current Clear Water Cliff.” San San stood still and pointed across.

Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu looked over.

Not far away, there were many mountains overlapping with lush greenery.

In the centermost position, a mountain was split into two. It was half the height of the tall peaks next to it.

Besides, the rocks were burnt, and there were a lot of weeds, looking very deserted.

But upon closer look, there was a small path that winded inward. At the end of it, one could faintly see a faint light.

It seemed like that was San San’s space. This path should be the one he usually took.

San San walked forward first.

Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu followed closely behind.

After walking for a while, Chu Liuyue surveyed her surroundings. “There are… quite a lot of people here.”

She had already seen quite a few waves of people walking over. However, these people seemed to have purposely avoided this path and thus Clear Water Cliff.

San San turned around and chuckled to explain, “Master, you don’t know. Ever since I met with that big fortune at Clear Water Cliff, the people in Peach Blossom Dock love coming over here to join in the fun, in hopes of meeting the same twist of fate! But in the past one or two years, nobody received any benefits, so there are fewer people coming over. The ones you see now aren’t considered many. You need to know that at the beginning, the mountains were filled with people coming to search for treasures!”

“As for why they want to avoid Clear Water Cliff… It’s naturally because they know that this is already my territory!”

Chu Liuyue glanced at him and raised her brows as she heartlessly exposed him. “Isn’t it because they know that this place has been targeted by the Black Sword Sect?”

San San’s smile froze, and he couldn’t help but mutter, “You can just know this in your heart. Why must you expose me in my face…”

I’ve already suffered enough, yet Master stabbed me again.

Chu Liuyue smiled and shook her head as she looked into the distance. It isn’t hard to guess what these people are thinking. Even Rong Xiu and I came because we have the same thoughts, but… I don’t know if we can find any clues.

…

When Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu followed San San into the Chu Liuyue, quite a few people noticed them. But as the two of them were disguised, outsiders just thought that San San brought his subordinates and didn’t pay much attention to it.

“Boss San went to Clear Water Cliff again?”

“What’s so weird about that? Clear Water Cliff is originally his. Doesn’t he come quite a few times every month?”

“If I didn’t recall wrongly, yesterday was the day he sends monthly gifts to the Black Sword Sect. He didn’t rest today, and he brought people over early in the morning?”

“…That’s strange… This Boss San won’t wake up unless there are benefits. Could he be urgently taking some herbs?”

“Didn’t you hear that when the Black Sword Sect went to his shop to collect the items a few days ago, his pageboy was even injured as they weren’t fully prepared? Not only did he send the items over yesterday, but he even apologized! I think Boss San is rushing over probably because the Black Sword Sect is chasing him!”

“I think so too… That’s really unlucky. He managed to gain such a twist of fate with much difficulty, yet he has to share it with other people for free… Nobody would be able to take it, right?”

“So what? Not to mention him, who in the entire Peach Blossom Dock dares to go against the Black Sword Sect? Forget it, forget it! Be careful of getting into trouble for your words! Let’s just think for ourselves!”

Boss San at least had Clear Water Cliff. What about them?

…

The messy discussions entered her ear.

Chu Liuyue’s heart tingled, and she looked at San San at the front. If this happened to others, they might not have been able to take it. However, San San is different. His ability to handle things in this area is top-notch.

Judging from the letters he previously wrote, they didn’t make one sense any displeasure. Clearly, even though the Black Sword Sect’s doings make his heart ache, it doesn’t actually affect him.

He is a rather open-minded person. To put it more simply, he is generous. Luckily, he is here…

“Master. Master?” San San stood still and turned around to look at Chu Liuyue, but he realized that his master seemed to be in a daze.

Chu Liuyue looked up and glanced at him.

San San covered his heart. “Master, what do you mean… by looking at me like this?”

Chu Liuyue snickered. “I was just thinking that you’re rather blessed.”

Once he heard this, San San was instantly elated. He loved other people praising him in this manner.

“Of course! Look… This is the small space I told you about previously!”

Chu Liuyue looked over to where he was pointing at.

Not far away, there was a small lake.

A faintly glowing barrier covered the lake. This was also the faint light that they had seen from the outside.

When they looked up, a ray of light shone down from the skies, onto Clear Water Cliff that was split into two.

San San took a step forward, and a dark-blue fire appeared in his palm.

Whoosh!

The fire tumbled, and the barrier instantly opened!

San San raised his foot to enter.

Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu exchanged glances and followed him.

The barrier closed, and the trio’s figures completely disappeared.
