Chapter 516: Torturing Guo Huan

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Guo Huan had come out of the Prime Minister’s Estate the night before. However, at that time, everyone did not know that he had escaped and only thought that he had gone out and not returned.

It was not until this morning that the capital magistrate realized that something was wrong. He immediately applied for a transfer order and invited the imperial guards and officials of the capital to search the entire city. He also sent people to guard the city gate and could not let Guo Huan slip out.

“Could it be that he already left the city last night?” the assistant asked in the government office.

When the Imperial Capital heard this, they telt that it made sense and sent another team of imperial guards out of the city to search.

At this moment, Guo Huan was actually hiding in Boss Lin’s gambling den in the capital.

Boss Lin closed the door and sat down beside Guo Huan. “Division Leader Guo, why are you hiding here? Don’t you know that my gambling den has long been targeted by the Imperial Court? The reason why they didn’t move is that they don’t have evidence, but aren’t you giving the Imperial Court something to use against us by sitting here? I… I still have to gather information for the Sect Master!”

Guo Huan said calmly, “My men are almost here. I’ll leave in a while.”

Boss Lin couldn’t chase him away anymore.

He looked at Guo Huan and sighed. “Division Leader Guo, you’ve really caused a huge trouble this time.”

Guo Huan said coldly, “You still have the cheek to criticize me? Someone pretended to be me and came to the gambling den. Didn’t the two of you tell him about the White Lotus Society’s plans?”

Boss Lin took a sip of tea guiltily. “Ahem, Division Leader Chen said it. I don’t know anything. The Sect Master’s orders didn’t reach me.”

Guo Huan snorted coldly.

Boss Lin pondered and said, “Speaking of which, why is Qin Canglan so tough? That knife is tempered with our White Lotus Society’s unique poison. There’s no medicine to cure it, but he actually survived it?”

Of course, he couldn’t criticize how Guo Huan’s technique. He couldn’t even stab the victim’s hearts accurately. Had he practiced his saber technique for nothing?

To be honest, Guo Huan was also very puzzled about Qin Canglan being able to survive.

However, it was useless to think too much. Qin Canglan had already come back to life. The only chance to assassinate him had been wasted. It would be even harder to assassinate Qin Canglan in the future.

An hour later, Guo Huan’s experts arrived. There were a total of four shadow guards.

In the White Lotus Society, shadow guards were also divided into levels.

The shadow guards who went to kill Su Li were junior shadow guards, and the four people beside Guo Huan were higher-level and middle-level shadow guards. If they escorted Guo Huan, they would ensure that nothing would go wrong.

Guo Huan disguised himself as an old merchant who was hauling two carts of satin out of the city.

Boss Lin had prepared this identity for him. The road passes and water passes had also been registered in the government office. The four experts were servants who had signed a death contract and their identities had been passed by the government office.

The group successfully left the city and headed south.

The sky gradually darkened.

What gave Guo Huan a headache was that there were actually imperial guards and officials searching for him.

This meant that he could not travel through the night.

During the day, everyone was on their way. It was not difficult for him to blend in, but there was no one on the road in the middle of the night. If he forced his way, he would easily be detained.

Unless… he took a small path.

After a short consideration, Guo Huan chose the latter.

He first abandoned the carriage and the silk in a forest, leaving only the horse behind. The five of them rode their horses through the forest.

There was a village at the end of the forest. After passing the village, there would be a crossing.

If he boarded the ship there, he would be able to escape completely.

Guo Huan felt that his luck was not bad.

Just as he was feeling smug, a person suddenly appeared in front of him.

He was wearing sky-green brocade clothes. His figure was tall and straight, and his temperament was clear.

The man and his sword stood under the moonlight, as if they had been tainted by the coldness and frost of the night.

Guo Huan hurriedly pulled the reins and stopped the horse. He took a closer look and exclaimed, “Su MO?”

After a moment, he calmed down and suddenly smiled. “You’re quite capable to be able to find this place. If you know what’s good for you, quickly move aside. I won’t make things difficult for you. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude!”

He had four shadow guards and was not afraid of Su MO at all.

However, the village was ahead. It would be bad if there were imperial guards in the village and the commotion attracted their attention.

The imperial guards might not be a match for the shadow guards, but they had the advantage in numbers. They could also exhaust them to death in a round-robin battle.

Su MO said nothing.
