Chapter 998: Covert Collaboration

After receiving the other party's consent, Lu Chuan felt much more at ease.

At that moment, a series of knocks came from the door.

"Is anyone there? I am a young master of the Ming family, may I ask for the door to be opened? I come to seek an audience for a favor."

Upon hearing the voice, Lu Chuan knew that someone from the Ming family had arrived.

Lu Chuan stood up, ready to leave.

However, he couldn't afford to let anyone from the Ming family catch even a glimpse of him now, so he had to find a place to hide first.

"Someone's here, I need to hide for a bit. I can't let my whereabouts be exposed, otherwise, they won't continue with the plan as scheduled."

"No problem, you go hide. I'll handle things here."

With that, the large door opened and the puppet appeared before everyone's eyes.

A group of more than ten people came in, led by the second young master of the Ming family, Ming Zongxuan.

He couldn't help but laugh upon seeing the puppet.
