Chapter Thirty-One: Night Investigation

  Afura hastily stopped him and said, "Lord Ye, if you go like this, it will take a long time to get there. Why don't I lend you a horse? How about that?"

  Ye Feng didn't mince words either and said: "You're troubling Miss so much."

  Aphrodite whispered a few words, and someone led a black purebred Aberdeen horse forward. "Sir, don't be polite, since we've become partners, providing some convenience for our partner is what we should do."

  The horse was tall and majestic, its coat black and shiny, with a pair of large eyes that shone brightly in the dark. Its every movement seemed to exude an extraordinary spirit. He couldn't help but praise it: "What a fine horse!"

  Afu Luo saw Ye Feng turn over and get on his horse, still with some worry. The song and dance troupe traveled around the world, and such things as bullying men and women were not uncommon. Such things are rarely settled, often leading to a bloody fight.

  She continued: "Lord Ye, I see you're alone. Although you're brave and unmatched in martial arts, it's still not suitable for you to rush in like this. Do you want me to send a few people to help you?"

  Ye Feng rode on this stirrup-less horse, swaying back and forth a bit unaccustomed. He shook his head and said, "No need, too many people would be cumbersome and get in the way. If you want to help, just notify the guard team as soon as possible."

  Afu Luo watched him ride the horse with unfamiliar hands, and a huge doubt arose in her heart. Ye Feng was not like the knight who could drive away the nightmare beast as described by everyone.

  She smiled and said, "Alright, I'll let the guard team know. And as for letting Rina help you, don't you think you should be able to relax with her skills?"

  Ye Feng turned his head to see the assassin extremely unwillingly getting out of the carriage and standing beside Aphrodite, staring at him fiercely. Ye Feng saw that it was her, and deliberately blinked his eyes. The assassin was so angry that he turned his head away.

  He recalled that the assassin's skills were not bad, so he burst out laughing and stared at Aphrodite's starry and profound eyes, saying seriously: "Miss Aphrodite, I owe you a favor."

  After finishing, he swung his whip and galloped away into the darkness. Aphrodite nodded slightly, and the assassin, though unwilling, hastily mounted a horse and followed closely behind.

  That maid watched Ye Feng walk far away, and complained to one side: "Miss, why are you so good to that dead pervert? It's already not bad to give him directions, why did you give him your favorite horse, and also let Ling Na go help?"

  Aphrodite smiled slightly and said, "The reason why the Ulysses family can be where it is today is all thanks to his efforts. If something happens to him, our plan will have to change again. Emotionally and rationally, we should help him."

  The maid said: "Can they find the missing person with just the two of them?"

  Aphrodite sighed and said: "We can only try our best."

  She turned back to the carriage. She lightly tapped on the carriage, and the horse carriage swayed slightly before continuing on its way. Aphrodite looked out of the window at the night sky, muttering: "Don't let me down."

  Behind them, the melee continued, with the raging fire illuminating the night sky a deep crimson.

  In Osho's Olive Garden.

  Bosie brought a man with a lewd expression into the study.

  As soon as he entered the door, he asked eagerly: "Did you get it?"

  That man snickered twice and pulled out a small box from his body, saying: "Don't worry, sir. You don't see who's coming out."

  Bosley took over the box, opened it and looked at it twice, and asked uneasily: "Does this thing really work? Can she fall in love with me as long as she drinks it?"

  That person blinked and said ambiguously: "Of course, sir. You just need to mix this thing into the water and let the other person drink it, no matter who she is, she will crazily love you. At that time, sir, you must take care of your body."

  He deliberately emphasized the word "love" heavily.

  Poshe immediately understood his unspoken meaning. He grabbed him by the collar and cursed, "Bastard, what I want is a love potion that makes women fall in love with me after drinking it, not this damn, lowly **."

  That man, with a bitter face, allowed Posidon's spittle to spray on his own face and said: "Sir, where in the world is there such medicine. To say something offensive, if there really was such medicine, Zeus would have used it when he seduced women. And wouldn't have turned into a deer or a cow, changing so laboriously."

  Bo Shouxin listened and suddenly let go of his hands.

  That man adjusted his clothes, seeing Bo Shou's painful face, he walked over and smiled sycophantically: "Actually, sir, you don't have to be so troubled. Women are like this, pretending to be noble on the surface, but who knows what they're really like? Maybe after you... with her, she'll actually fall in love with you. Besides, even if it doesn't work out, you won't lose out either, at least you'll have gotten her person, right?"

  Poseidon listened to his words, remembering that Yefeng was able to defeat Diana and win her heart. He couldn't help but clench his fists tightly, his fingers turning white with rage. Unaware that his fingernails had dug deep into his flesh, fresh blood slowly flowed down from the gaps between his fingers.

  He looked at the box in front of him with an uncertain expression, his face changing color constantly, sometimes pale and sometimes green.

  He gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, even if I can't get her heart, at least I'll get her person."

  Bosch's expression was complex as he put the box away, his face stern as he said to the man, "You've done a good job on this matter. It's late now, you can rest in this room."

  After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the door.

  The man saw him and hastily shouted: "Sir."

  "Anything else?" Poseidon asked as he turned back around.

  That man smiled obsequiously and didn't say a word, but just bent his waist even lower.

  Bosch suddenly came to his senses, reached into his pocket and pulled out a purse of money, tossing it over, saying: "Take it. And tonight, don't let anyone disturb me."

  He took the money bag, bowed deeply and smiled obsequiously: "Don't worry, sir. I'll instruct the servants not to disturb you no matter how much noise comes from your room."

  Bo Shou hummed and turned around to leave.

  He took out a pouch of money and shook it by his ear, hearing the metallic clinking sound inside, he smiled with his eyes narrowed into a slit.

  The leaves were blowing in the wind as he galloped along the road, the cool breeze hitting his face. The dark tree clusters on both sides of the road kept retreating behind him. He sat on horseback, feeling that the horse didn't need to be urged on, running like flying in the darkness of night, and wonderfully, it ran quite steadily, with hardly any bumps at all.

  Ye Feng couldn't help but secretly praise: What a good horse. At the same time, he calculated in his heart that if he brought this horse back, would Aphrodite be angry about it?

  The sound of horseshoes came from behind, and he knew it was the assassin who had caught up without looking back. Even though Ye Feng's face wasn't thick-skinned, at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. The other person had helped him so selflessly, yet he still wanted to take advantage of them - it really wasn't right. So his remaining conscience felt uneasy for a moment, and he made up his mind to just borrow the horse for three years.

  He concentrated his attention on the road ahead, afraid that something would trip him off his horse and break his neck, which would make a laughing stock of this Red Blood Dragon Rider.

  Ye Feng felt the assassin had caught up and loudly said: "Thank you."

  Ling Na gave him a cold glance and said: "No need, I'm just following Miss Zu's orders."

  Ye Feng shrugged his shoulders and said, "Anyway, I have to say it. Thank you."

  Ling Na thought for a moment and said: "If you really want to thank me, it's not impossible. As long as you tell me afterwards how you found our weakness."

  Ye Feng bowed his head and said, "No need to wait later, I can tell you now."

  Ling Na turned her head and said: "Oh?"

  Ye Feng continued to look ahead and said, "First of all, let's talk about that maid. An ordinary maid wearing a pure gold ring with intricate carvings that is obviously very valuable, don't you think it's strange?"

  Ling Na hummed and silently cursed those material groups for not considering the actual situation, only thinking about making things more expensive to embezzle money.

  "As for you, next time you think of killing someone, it's best to take a look at the position of the mirrors in the room first. Your every move is reflected in the mirror in front of me."

  Ling Na was speechless at once.

  The two rode their horses for a while longer and then appeared in front of them a group of dark buildings.

  Yefeng pulled the horse to a stop, jumped down and carefully examined the marks on the road, nodded and said: "It should be here."

  Lingna also jumped off the horse and looked at those buildings for a long time, saying: "Not bad, this is the manor of Oshus's house, Miss has performed here before."

  The two of them bypassed the front gate and arrived at the edge of the manor's wall.

  Lingna looked up at the high wall, just about to find a place to step on and climb over. Ye Feng waved his hand, turned to Lingna, squatted down under the wall, and clasped his hands together in front of his abdomen. "Step on my hands, I'll send you up."

  Ling Na looked at him suspiciously for a long time, lifted one foot and stepped on Ye Feng's hand, saying: "Can you do it?"

  "Stand up straight," Ye Feng said with a low growl, and with that, he raised his hands upwards. He tossed Ling Na high into the air, and she stretched out her hand to grab onto the top of the wall. Then, with ease, she climbed along the top of the wall, flipped over, and sat down on it, looking at Ye Feng below and asking, "What about you?"

  Ye Feng stretched out his hand from his waist and untied the belt, throwing one end into her hand. Ling Na immediately understood, stretched out her hand and pulled hard, Ye Feng also quickly climbed up the wall with the force of the pull.

  Ling Na looked at him with a strange expression and said: "You're quite familiar with this kind of thing, didn't you often do it before?"

  Yefeng smiled and said, "It's just so-so."

  Two people flipped down from the wall and hid at the side of the wall to observe the movements inside the manor.

  Ling Na, having been here before, pointed to the dark buildings in the manor based on her memory and quietly introduced them to Ye Feng. She said: "The two two-story buildings in the middle are the owner's residence, and the houses next door are where the farmers and slaves who work in the manor live. The left one is where Oshus lives, and the right one should be where Bosius lives."

  The first floor of the small building on the right should be the servants' quarters, and the second floor is the master's room. If Poseidon was really here, he should be in one of those rooms."

  Lingna's words had barely fallen when Ye Feng ran to the front of the small building, crouching down and sneaking forward with a professionalism that made Lingna involuntarily compare herself to him. To her surprise, she found that they were evenly matched, and in some details, she was even inferior to him.

  Ye Feng arrived at the front of the building and saw a horse carriage parked to one side, with the horses already led into the stable, leaving only an empty carriage standing there. Under the moonlight, he lowered his head and carefully examined the wheels of the carriage, finding that they matched the tracks left on the road, and a faint cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

  "He whispered to Lena who followed him: 'He must be here.'"
