Race Against Time

As Wu Long went forward with a pondering expression, Old Yen soon rejoined him at the same respectful distance.

"Place a few eyes on the Wu Family Manor for now, and have them report any suspicious activity or if the preparations for a marriage ceremony are about to be complete. Once you're done with that, lead me to the poison provider and then the organization of the ambushers"

"Yes"

Old Yen knew that he would need a considerable amount of money to hire reliable people even with his connections, but since he was using the accumulated finances of his own organization as well as what Wu Long gave him, he simply nodded. His life was a lot more precious to him than all of these.

He also inexplicably found himself a little at comfort, since when he was in charge of his organization, he would always be worried about someone stronger than him showing up and ruining the years of his work.
