However, Feng Yin was relieved, this person was highly skilled, originally standing in the sky, untraceable, and he didn’t perceive anything.

If he acted rashly, it would be impossible to escape this person’s watchful eyes, and he would be captured on the spot.

Yet at this moment, despite being in close proximity, he benefited from the darkness under the lamplight, having the entire tree shielding him, he was not afraid of being discovered by the other party.

“Thank goodness I did not act impulsively.”

The shadowy figure standing on the tree looked down for a while, then sat on top of the tree, hiding himself with branches and leaves, apparently intending to hide here and monitor the surrounding movements.

People in the courtyard started to get busy, moving out…

This…

Feng Yin was dumbfounded: Do they really need to be so careful?

Who exactly is here, why are they so prepared!

…

He Bibiqu and Kong Gaohan had just returned from the military camp; their mood somewhat lighter than before.

From the information and intelligence gathered, the defensive army had not been entirely infiltrated; or rather, the truly disloyal ones were still a minority.

This was somewhat reassuring.

“The military power within the Wu and Fei families is still reliable.” He Bibiqu felt a surge of relief.

“The majority of Great Qin’s soldiers are trustworthy.” Kong Gaohan said.

“Yes. If it’s a civil war within a country, the probability of the army being defected is high; but in a situation of two countries at war, those who can be defected are few. It seems we were too worried before.”

“That’s not necessarily true; it’s necessary to worry. Even if a few defect, it could still cause a lot of commotion, possibly even resulting in tragedy. A single spark can start a prairie fire.”

Kong Gaohan said casually, “But it’s futile for the top brass to use Wang Sanyuan to catch the big fish. They’re overthinking it.”

“Big fish are not so easy to catch.” He Bibiqu laughed disdainfully.

As they spoke, they arrived at the old site of the inn where the fight took place.

“The big fight that took place here was rather dull.” He Bibiqu sighed.

“Indeed, this chaos here was just a smokescreen arranged by others who already knew about the methods of Heavenly Judge’s branch. The real action is certainly elsewhere. Even the most clever tactics cannot be repeatedly effective. If they do work each time, it’s either a trick or a trap by the other party.”

Kong Gaohan shared the same view.

“Of course, but ignoring this kind of spectacle is impossible.” That was He Bibiqu’s most helpless predicament.

“This is precisely what makes our adversaries so clever. If you ignore them, they will take advantage of the situation to escalate things. Even though we are aware of their schemes, we must still retaliate. This is a clear strategy; we have no choice but to respond.”

Kong Gaohan frowned, “The puzzling thing now is, what is the enemy trying to hide? This is especially troublesome and crucial.”

Both men stood in front of the ruins of the inn, feeling very unsatisfied.

This time, the Great Qin Heavenly Judge branch was exploited by the other side. They had no choice but to deal with it passively.

As soon as the two arrived, the man in the tree had alerted the people below, who immediately halted their action.

It was evident they knew these two men were not to be trifled with.

In fact, the man hiding in the tree only concealed himself behind the tree after seeing the two approaching from afar, inadvertently getting close to Feng Yin.

At this moment, Feng Yin had also noticed the arrival of He Bibiqu and Kong Gaohan. Although he did not recognize Kong Gaohan, seeing the two walking side by side, with He Bibiqu lagging just slightly behind, he could guess who the other person was.

Other than Kong Gaohan, in Yuezhou, there was no second person that could make He Bibiqu adopt such a slightly lower stance.

There are certain things in the official system that are difficult to exceed.

Who walks in front, who walks behind, who sits on the left, who sits on the right, where to stand in battle, where to stand normally, all have certain rules.

As long as you have been in the officialdom for a long time, you can find your own position without making a conscious effort.

Although He Bibiqu and Kong Gaohan are as close as brothers, He takes care of things that should be considered very clearly.

On the one hand, it’s naturally about official positions, but more importantly, it’s He Bibiqu’s respect for Kong Gaohan.

Feng Yin saw the two standing only a few hundred feet away from the tree, and a thought suddenly came to his mind on how to resolve the current deadlock, even break the impasse.

Feng Yin communicated with the tree through his divine sense, attempting to instruct it. The tree instantly responded and followed his instruction.

So…

He Bibiqu and Kong Gaohan suddenly felt something was wrong.

Why… did it suddenly get brighter in front of them?

Looking up, they saw a gap on top of the dense tree, letting the cool moonlight through.

It was the Last Quarter Moon at this moment, the moonlight was extraordinarily cold and gentle.

“Is it… windy?”

He Bibiqu was puzzled, voicing his doubts.

Kong Gaohan also felt the change was unbelievable, he replied absentmindedly, “No.”

Then both of them widened their eyes.

“Damn!”

This word nearly slipped out of He Bibiqu’s mouth.

Because he realized, there’s someone in the tree.

Just a moment ago…

Decided in his heart, Feng Yin had put his plan into action, amid his communication with the giant tree. He had slightly shifted the branches and leaves to reveal the moonlight, attracting the attention of He Bibiqu and Kong Gaohan. At the same time, he had exposed the man who was hiding there. The whole process was carried out without a sound and had gone smoothly.

The tree was naturally skilled at this kind of movement.

Moving its branches and leaves around was a piece of cake. If necessary, the leaves could even fall off.

And so, the tiny branches began to move in silence, one by one. Some leaves silently fell from their branches while others turned to a different direction…

A pathway perfectly suited to He Bibiqu and Kong Gaohan’s field of vision was instantly formed.

The tree was delighted.

I too am useful!

Hidden among the tree tops and disguised by the dense branches and leaves was a man in black, sitting cross-legged with ease.

From his position, not only could he observe all the movements in a radius of several hundred feet, but he also didn’t have to worry about being discovered by anyone.

Indeed, it was an excellent lookout spot. He felt completely at ease and was not worried about revealing his tracks at all.

He was not just anyone, wasn’t he?

Even when the moonlight suddenly brightened up, he considered it the time, ignoring it afterwards.

All his attention was on He Bibiqu and Kong Gaohan.

He never noticed the branches and leaves that originally covered his entire body had silently shifted, exposing half of his body to the bright moonlight, making him conspicuously visible.

Then, He Bibiqu and Kong Gaohan naturally saw a peculiar sight that left them stunned.

Following the moonlight direction, they noticed a man in a black dress sitting stably on the highest tree branch, who, under the translucent moonlight, looked more visible and relaxed.

Is… Is he on watching duty?!

In the eyes of He Bibiqu and Kong Gaohan, the man in black was originally well concealed, but as the moonlight shifted, he was fully exposed. To their surprise, he was still carefully watching here and there, looking double amusing…

“Surely this man is way too unlucky…”

Kong Gaohan was inexplicably amused.

At this point, neither of them viewed this man as their enemy. They simply saw him as a skilled county guard on duty and could not help but smile at each other.

The meaning was clear: Have you ever seen a such an unlucky sentinel?

Never seen before.

Me neither, hahahaha…

The man in black continued to sit upright without daring to move an inch, as he saw the two rainbow-dressed officials below, laughing. Yet he had no idea what they were laughing about, and a sense of disdain arose in his heart.

Laugh now, it won’t be long before it’s your turn to cry.

Hence, he paid even closer attention, his mind entirely focused on the two formidable enemies.

He Bibiqu couldn’t help but teach the man a few lessons as he saw him seemingly unaware that he had been exposed and still sat in such a conspicuous place.

Suddenly, a faint sound transmission came from the tree, the volume was weak, or rather, it seemed a bit feeble.

Obviously, the distance was too great and the guy on the other side was running out of strength, causing the sound transmission to become weak and intermittent.

But the content of the sound transmission shocked He Bibiqu: “Lord He, the man in the tree is a personal guard of the military advisor of Great Yan.”

The content was surprising enough, but the voice itself was even more astonishing to He Bibiqu.

For he was well familiar with this voice, so familiar that he was always looking forward to hearing, yearning for it.

Because it was the voice of Doctor Feng.

He Bibiqu abruptly looked up, then quickly said: “Big Brother Kong, let’s capture that man together.”

Kong Gaohan was taken aback by what he heard. Before he got a chance to inquire about the matter, He Bibiqu had already disappeared.

The black-clothed Great Yan elite, who was intently observing his surroundings from atop the tree, was keeping an especially close eye on He Bibiqu and Kong Gaohan.

However, in the blink of an eye, he was startled to find that one of the two people below him was missing.

Now only the white-clothed Kong Gaohan remained standing there.

This man was taken aback: Where’s He Bibiqu?

Where did He Bibiqu go?

As the thought arose, he felt a chill run down his spine, a sense of danger was welling up in his heart.

This man was a seasoned warrior. Without a second thought, he jumped up immediately. At this moment, he didn’t care about exposing himself. His life was all that mattered, everything else was insignificant.

But a streak of silent, sharp radiance from a sword flashed by. It was not only fierce to the extreme, but also cruel beyond measure. There was no wind-breaking sound or any killing intent revealed as the sword moved.

With a blood-curdling scream, blood splattered across the sky.

The man in black was not as skilled as He Bibiqu. Even though he noticed the ambush, his reaction was too late.

One of his legs fell neatly from the shin down.
