Chapter 2479 Apprehending And Search For Intel

~CRACK~

~THUD~

The wooden door exploded as a first burst through it.

The wooden fragments splattered all over the hall's interior and even pelted a few of the paralyzed individuals. They would have squirmed from the pain, but fortunately for them they had already gone numb from the Flesh And Qi Strangling Poison.

"Lord Imperator." The one to arrive was none other than Commander Dui. "You got them all?" he said seeing the restrained individuals.

"Yes, though I don't know if they can withstand the poison." Lin Mu replied seeing that some of them with low cultivation bases were actually having a hard time breathing. "Their breathing is getting bad and their hearts are slowing down as well." He added.

'I might have gotten the dose wrong... Perhaps I should have only fed them a part of the bottle and not the whole thing.' Lin Mu noted his mistake for the next time.

Of course he had no idea when Crown Princess Shang had given him the poison, she had only considered it to be used on someone at Lin Mu's level or around that. It was a strong poison in the first place and was also quite expensive.

But Lin Mu used it as is, thinking that he had little time since the Cloak And Dagger Hall members could possibly kill themselves at any moment.

"We'll take care of them." Commander Dui replied. "Take them away!" he ordered.

"Yes, commander!" the guards that he had brought with him replied and quickly carried the poisoned 'victims' away.

Once they were gone, Lin Mu spoke to the Commander again.

"You really went to a banquet and uncovered an entire scheme." Crown Prince Feng Shun didn't know what to say about it.

"It was just luck." Lin Mu replied. "Thankfully they were impatient enough to act right then." He added.

"That's good for us." Daoist Chu laughed. "The more impatient they are the more mistakes they'll make."

"Though who were they?" Ziran questioned. "Considering their proximity to the Imperial Grounds, they must've had great influence."

"That's what I wonder too." Lin Mu said as he took out a jade slip. "Let's see if we find anything from these documents." He said as he tapped the jade slip, letting a formation screen appear.

~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~

The formation screen then divide into seven and moved in front of each individual present which included Crown Princess Shang, and Monk Hushu as well.

As they all scanned through it, Monk Hushu ended up being the first one to discover an important bit of information.

"It says here that a payment of two million Immortal Stones was sent to someone named Lord Kou Tua." Monk Hushu stated.

"Lord Kou Tua?" Crown Prince Feng Shun narrowed his eyes as he recalled the name. "That's... a low ranked Aristocrat. If I recall correctly he used to be a merchant and later gained access to nobility about a thousand years ago."

"I found something more." Crown Princess Shang spoke this time. "A receipt of payment from someone named Darin." "Darin? That's not a name native to the Rust Sky World." Crown Prince Feng Shun said in confusion.

"He might be from another world." Ziran guessed. "Keep on looking."

They did that and found out many such recipients and payment records along with job commissions of various kinds showing that the Cloak and Dagger Hall was very, very busy.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
