"Zzzz..."
"I give up! I can't wake him up!"
An employee sighed. He has tried all he could think of to wake a sleeping customer. From shouting loudly into beating and punching him multiple times. Yet, this customer won't wake up at all. If it isn't for the loud snore, he would already have thought this customer was dead.
The manager wants to cry. It was he who found and tried to wake the customer in the first place. Yet, he failed and asked an employee to do it in his stead. The employee also failed, then he asked the second employee to do it. The cycle continues until the eighth employee.
What's worse, this customer hasn't even paid the bill. However, with no way of waking him up, the manager was lost at what to do.
"How could he still be sleeping!? Who's going to pay for the 15,000 silver taels he owed!?"
An employee answered, "Manager, it already late. Everyone has to go home, we're too tired... Let's leave him here for the night. Probably he will wake up tomorrow, or someone would come and pick him up."
"Uhhh..." The manager was not too happy with the answer he received. But, he was out of options, in the end, he complied with the employees. "All right then..."
Soon, the manager and the employees leave the sleeping customer in the kitchen.
"Zzzz..."
Silence illuminates the entire building, except for the sound of the snoring, nothing else was heard.
Not long after, the snoring sound also went away.
"Finally... Looks like they have gone away."
The customer woke up. While rolling up his sleeves, he talks to himself, "This is all because of Lu... How could he choose an expensive restaurant and ordered so many foods when I only have little money?"
"Fortunately, I'm so smart. There's no one better than me in turning something pricey into free."
The customer was none other than Qian Hui. After he received some money from the fake Qian Qian, he took Qian Lu to eat.
However, the plan to enter a small restaurant was replaced because of Qian Lu. He promised to eat less so he could taste more luxury food. Still, he ordered for a portion of at least 20 people. Without knowing, the price soon turned into 15,000 silver taels.
Without enough money, Qian Hui hurriedly drives Qian Lu out of the restaurant. Then, he began his plan to pretend to be asleep, so he doesn't have to pay. Although he was really asleep most of the time, it was a success nonetheless.
Qian Hui rubbed his cheek to ease some of the pain. "That last employee is quite strong... How could he punched me so hard?"
Qian Hui makes his way out of the restaurant. He found the door was locked, but it was not a problem. He immediately broke the handle and successfully went out.
On the way home, Qian Hui found something disturbing.
"What's this...Ah! It's a corpse..."
The body was severely severed into 6 parts of head, body, hands, and legs. In each body parts, blue and black bruises could easily be found. Other than that, there were cuts and blood everywhere.
However, there's something else that makes Qian Hui interested.

"Isn't this the Second Young Master's clothes? Could it be that Second Young Master has..." Qian Hui shook his head. "It couldn't be... This is probably one of the fakes pretending to be Second Young Master."
"Who are you?"
Suddenly, two young men in black clothes appeared from behind Qian Hui. They each hold a dagger ready to strike Qian Hui at any moment.
Qian Hui was surprised. He was only looking at the corpse, but these people want to kill him. "Wait! This is a misunderstanding! I didn't do anything!"
"Don't feign ignorance and tell us your name! Don't blame us if we hurt you..."
Qian Hui was sweating profusely. He just found out that these two people were Dream Earth Realm Experts. Although he was in a higher cultivation level, he was still weak and could not win against two opponents so close to his level.
He needed a plan to fool them somehow.
"It's me! It's me! Don't you remember me?"
The two young men were surprised, the man in front of him doesn't seem to be lying. Could they really now him?
"Eh... Who are you?"
"Yeah, it feels like we have not met you before..."
Qian Hui was relieved, they were almost tricked by his lie. He just needs t push a little bit more. "It's me! It's me! Could you have forgotten me?"
"Ehh! Could you be our senior?"
"That's right!"
"...Senior? Also an Iron Mortal Realm... Who could... Ahhh!!! Senior Yu Liang!"
"Finally, you remember me!" Qian Hui confirmed himself with the fake identity, "That's right, I'm your senior, Yu Liang!"
Both young men cupped their hands and bowed, "Please forgive us for our ignorance!"
"It's okay! It's okay!" Qian Hui said calmly and acted as their senior.
"But... What's Senior Yu doing here? Isn't the mission supposed to take about three years."
"Mission? Ah... Yes its easier than expected, so I come home early..."
"I see..." the young man nodded. "Then, what is senior doing here?"
"Hush!" said the other young man, "Of course Senior Yu would visit his junior knowing his condition... Senior Yu and Wan Xun have a close relationship!"
"As expected from Senior Yu!" The young man smiled. "You must be here to analyze the corpse, so you can take revenge for Wan Xun!"
These two were from the Silver Hands Owl, they were given a task to clean up Wan Xun's body. When they reached the location of Wan Xun's corpse, someone was already there and could not help but be suspicious. It turned out, he was their senior.
As members of Silver Hands Owl, they both received education on to detect lies. However, Qian Hui also has skill similar to them, which is to make a believable lie. Because they could not detect anything amiss from Qian Hui's expression, there's no reason to doubt him. As a result, they were tricked into thinking Qian Hui was their senior.
"Senior Yu, welcome back!"
Qian Hui smiled and nodded lightly.
The young man said to his friend, "I'll go and accompany Senior Yu to the base. You go ahead and clean up Wan Xun..."
The other young man nodded and started cleaning up the corpse.
"Senior must be tired from the mission and journey. Since you were gone, Silver Hands Owl have a new base not far from here. I'll lead the way, so senior can follow me!"
[Silver Hands Owl!!!]
Qian Hui was shocked. He never would think that he met the members of the infamous sect of Silver Hands Owl.
"By the way, the one who kills Wan Xun is the Feng Clan and Yang Clan..."
"What!" Qian Hui became even more surprised.
"Senior does not need to worry. The Silver Hands Owl is ready to go on a war with them!"
Qian Hui was determined, he needs to investigate in this matter.
