Ask someone from the Sect for help?
Nowadays, Li Yunjing’s 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 couldn’t be exposed!
Absolutely mustn’t let the Sect know!
Otherwise, the statement he made about the death of those people from the "Laws Association" wouldn’t 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 won’t draw attention.
This could be quite difficult!
This time, Li Yunjing came intending to deal with Gong Renju and then leave!
If he can’t go through the Sect, then should he just forcefully kill?
Li Yunjing is confident that he can kill Gong Renju with one fatal strike!
"What’s wrong? Do you have a grudge with this old geezer?"
Sensing a trace of coldness from Li Yunjing, Liu Ruyan couldn’t help but tremble and asked.
"No! I don’t know this person! However, my friend came to ’Red Sun Market’ 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 wouldn’t admit that he had any entanglement with Gong Renju.
"Oh! That matter! Since you want to act, our ’Smoke Rain Tower’ 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 won’t be any trouble?"
Li Yunjing was slightly startled and asked.
"Gong Renju is quite old, and him suddenly dying from exertion wouldn’t be impossible."
Liu Ruyan chuckled, having already thought of a way for Gong Renju to die.
"It won’t cause you any trouble?"
Li Yunjing hesitated briefly and asked again.
"No worries! There won’t be any problem!"
Liu Ruyan said reassuringly.
Actually, Liu Ruyan didn’t mention that Gong Renju had been drained quite heavily by the sisters of "Smoke Rain Tower" and wouldn’t live many more years.
Now, repaying Li Yunjing’s favor by killing Gong Renju was just a small matter.
"Alright! I’ll trouble you with this. If it’s done, my favor to you will be repaid."
Li Yunjing considered for a while and felt that Liu Ruyan’s plan was indeed more reliable.
After all, Gong Renju is a respected shopkeeper in "Red Sun Market" and wouldn’t 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 Renju’s relationships over the past few years, including the Bai Family brothers and Li Yunjing.
As long as there’s a connection, these people would certainly be examined.
Li Yunjing might not face big issues due to his identity, but he certainly doesn’t want any ties with this person.
There’s no wall in the world that doesn’t 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! I’ll notify Gong Renju’s 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, "Let’s enjoy some hot springs after this fulfilling meal? Maybe we’ll get the news in a couple of hours."
Li Yunjing’s eyes lit up, and he agreed immediately.
It wasn’t to admire beauties, but recently his cultivation had been exhausting, and soaking in a hot spring would help restore his physical functions!
Yes! That’s exactly it!
"Hehehe... Let’s go!"
Liu Ruyan, Xing’Er, and Yue’Er all smiled, not believing a word of his excuse!
"Brother Li, you go first! We’ll change clothes and join you!"
Liu Ruyan laughed, pushing Li Yunjing and hinting for him to leave first.
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 Yunjing’s 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.
