Ask someone from the Sect for help?
Nowadays, Li Yunjingâs status is pretty high. If he asks for help from the Sect, someone would certainly do him a favor.
However, the matter of Gong Renju sending someone to kill him couldnât be exposed!
Absolutely mustnât let the Sect know!
Otherwise, the statement he made about the death of those people from the "Laws Association" wouldnât match up.
Gong Renju is his flaw!
Whether for personal revenge or silencing the witness, Gong Renju has to disappear in a plausible way that wonât draw attention.
This could be quite difficult!
This time, Li Yunjing came intending to deal with Gong Renju and then leave!
If he canât go through the Sect, then should he just forcefully kill?
Itâs not impossible!
Li Yunjing is confident that he can kill Gong Renju with one fatal strike!
"Whatâs wrong? Do you have a grudge with this old geezer?"
Sensing a trace of coldness from Li Yunjing, Liu Ruyan couldnât help but tremble and asked.
"No! I donât know this person! However, my friend came to âRed Sun Marketâ for business and was tricked by Gong Renju, so he told me and asked me to help him get justice if I got the chance."
Li Yunjing said calmly.
No matter what, Li Yunjing wouldnât admit that he had any entanglement with Gong Renju.
"Oh! That matter! Since you want to act, our âSmoke Rain Towerâ will surely help."
"This person usually comes to play at night, how about I help you take care of him as a token of appreciation for saving my life?"
Liu Ruyan said suggestively.
"Hmm? There wonât be any trouble?"
Li Yunjing was slightly startled and asked.
"Gong Renju is quite old, and him suddenly dying from exertion wouldnât be impossible."
Liu Ruyan chuckled, having already thought of a way for Gong Renju to die.
"It wonât cause you any trouble?"
Li Yunjing hesitated briefly and asked again.
"No worries! There wonât be any problem!"
Liu Ruyan said reassuringly.
Actually, Liu Ruyan didnât mention that Gong Renju had been drained quite heavily by the sisters of "Smoke Rain Tower" and wouldnât live many more years.
Now, repaying Li Yunjingâs favor by killing Gong Renju was just a small matter.
"Alright! Iâll trouble you with this. If itâs done, my favor to you will be repaid."
Li Yunjing considered for a while and felt that Liu Ruyanâs plan was indeed more reliable.
After all, Gong Renju is a respected shopkeeper in "Red Sun Market" and wouldnât just die without reasons.
If he were assassinated in the street, the Market Management Office would surely investigate.
Everything fears detailed scrutiny!
If the Market Management Office seriously investigated, they would surely look into Gong Renjuâs relationships over the past few years, including the Bai Family brothers and Li Yunjing.
As long as thereâs a connection, these people would certainly be examined.
Li Yunjing might not face big issues due to his identity, but he certainly doesnât want any ties with this person.
Thereâs no wall in the world that doesnât let wind through.
If Gong Renju was assassinated tonight after Li Yunjing had come in the afternoon, considering their business connection, Li Yunjing would certainly be suspected.
At that point, things would be troublesome for Li Yunjing.
That option is only a last resort.
If Gong Renju died suddenly in "Smoke Rain Tower," it would become a joke, and people would eventually lose interest.
This is why Li Yunjing agreed to Liu Ruyan helping.
"Alright! Iâll notify Gong Renjuâs partner now!"
Liu Ruyan giggled, a flash on her hand revealed a "Thousand-Mile Communication Talisman," and she conveyed her instructions.
After a while, Liu Ruyan put away the "Thousand-Mile Communication Talisman," smiled and said, "Letâs enjoy some hot springs after this fulfilling meal? Maybe weâll get the news in a couple of hours."
"Sure!"
Li Yunjingâs eyes lit up, and he agreed immediately.
It wasnât to admire beauties, but recently his cultivation had been exhausting, and soaking in a hot spring would help restore his physical functions!
Yes! Thatâs exactly it!
Absolutely true!
"Hehehe... Letâs go!"
Liu Ruyan, XingâEr, and YueâEr all smiled, not believing a word of his excuse!
"Brother Li, you go first! Weâll change clothes and join you!"
Liu Ruyan laughed, pushing Li Yunjing and hinting for him to leave first.
"Alright! Hurry up!"
Li Yunjing shook his head, turned, and left the small building.
It was already evening, around hour of the dog, with the moon high in the sky.
Though it was April, "Red Sun Market," being close to "Red Sun Valley," had high evening temperatures, feeling almost like summer.
Li Yunjing strolled under the moonlight to the hot spring pool.
This pool was large, bigger than a typical swimming pool, almost like a small lake.
White mist rose over the water surface, making the place resemble a fairyland.
Li Yunjing undressed and was the first to enter the hot spring pool.
In such weather, soaking in a hot spring is absolutely beneficial to health.
Leaning against the edge of the pool, Li Yunjing comfortably closed his eyes slightly.
As for his belongings, they were all placed on a small table beside the pool.
Such treasures, no matter the time or place, Li Yunjing always keeps within sight!
At this moment, Li Yunjing was contemplating whether to buy a Storage Ring?
A Storage Ring is not only convenient to wear, but also has a large space inside, unlike now where he had to carry five "Hundred Treasures Pouches" and over ten Storage Bags on each trip out.
While soaking in the pool, Li Yunjingâs thoughts kept churning.
Meanwhile, "Smoke Rain Tower" was bustling, with seductive music drifting from the small three-story building.
Gong Renju entered "Smoke Rain Tower" swaying while humming a tune.
"Boss Gong is here! Please come inside!"
The girls at the entrance recognized Gong Renju. Seeing him approach, one hurried over, calling him "Boss Gong" sweetly and affectionately.
