Chapter 166: Not an Ordinary Long Breath Stage Cultivator (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was late at night, the time when ordinary people fell asleep.
In the dark forest, Lin Shen sized up the manor in the distance.
“That’s the target manor? It does look more like a castle than a manor.”
The tall city wall and the patrolling guards on it showed that the manor was heavily guarded.
In Dragonside City, such a manor would undoubtedly be very eye-catching.
However, in a place like Silverscale City, the manor wasn’t the only house surrounded by tall walls.
Tang Yue stood quietly beside Lin Shen.
After about ten minutes, her expression suddenly changed, and she said softly,
“It’s done!”
Lin Shen nodded slightly. With a flash, he rushed toward the manor in the distance.
Tang Yue followed closely behind.
The two of them were swift and silent. In just two to three seconds, they passed through the empty road three to four hundred meters long in the manor and arrived at the bottom of the high wall.
Smack!
Lin Shen quickly slapped three talismans on his body.
Apart from the Flying Feather Talisman and the Light Body Talisman, there was also a concealment talisman that reduced one’s aura.
Naturally, Sinking Moon had prepared all the talismans in advance.
Tang Yue also pasted talismans on herself.
The spirit cat race was already good at stealth. After activating the talisman, their movements became even more undetectable.
If Tang Yue hadn’t been by Lin Shen’s side, he would not have felt her presence.
After activating the talisman, the two of them immediately climbed up the high wall.
There were seven or eight guards scattered on the wall. Some were standing guard, while others were patrolling back and forth.
The strange thing was that when Lin Shen and Tang Yue reached the top of the wall, these people ignored them and continued doing their own things.
If one observed carefully, one would notice that these guards were in a daze. They had unknowingly fallen into an illusion.
Without stopping, Lin Shen and Tang Yue quickly passed through the wall and successfully entered the manor.
Before coming, Tang Yue had already told Lin Shen about the layout and environment of the manor. The two of them passed through the front courtyard and the outer courtyard without stopping and entered the inner courtyard.
The outlines of buildings gradually appeared.
After avoiding the two teams of patrolling guards, Lin Shen and Tang Yue quickly discovered a servant who was alone.
Without hesitation, Lin Shen captured him and quickly interrogated him about the butler’s location.
As the manager of all the miscellaneous items and personnel in the manor, the butler definitely knew everything about the manor like the back of his hand.
Apart from the owner of the manor, the butler would definitely know where the spirit cat was imprisoned.
After getting the answer he wanted, Lin Shen knocked the servant unconscious and stuffed him into a nearby rockery. Then, he rushed to his destination with Tang Yue.
Not long, the two of them arrived at the back of a building that was still lit up.
The room the butler lived in happened to be on the top floor. Lin Shen and Tang Yue quietly climbed up the outer wall and pressed on the corridor window. When they exhaled their spiritual essence, there was a crack, and the window opened slightly.
The two of them entered in a single file and silently landed in the corridor.
The butler’s room was on the right at the end of the corridor.
When Lin Shen and Tang Yue snuck in, a woman in a maid’s uniform was coming out of that room. She looked disheveledii/4CE and her face was flushed as if she had just had some intensive activity.
The woman bowed into the room and closed the door. She turned around and saw Lin Shen and Tang Yue.
At first, she thought they were servants in the manor and felt a little guilty.
However, when she saw the masks on Lin Shen and Tang Yue’s faces, she suddenly realized who they were.
In her shock, the woman’s expression immediately changed. She was so frightened that she took a step back, took a deep breath, and prepared to scream. Unfortunately, it took her too much time to inhale. Lin Shen rushed to her side and hit the back of the woman’s head with the side of his palm.
The woman fainted without even making a sound. Her body swayed, and she was about to fall forward, but Lin Shen caught her in time and gently placed her on the ground.
He turned around and gestured to Tang Yue. He then pressed his palm on the door handle, using his spiritual essence to break the lock.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, the middle-aged man lying on the bed opened his eyes in confusion. Just as he was about to look up, a slender and strong palm had already reached out at lightning speed and grabbed his neck ruthlessly.
“!!!”
The terrifying force coming from that hand made the middle-aged man feel as if his neck had become a fragile rotten wood. With just a little force, it would be broken with a crack.
The middle-aged man immediately struggled violently.
Unfortunately, the physical strength of the Level-9 Qi Transformation Stage that he was usually proud of was useless at this moment.
A moment later, the middle-aged man’s face had already turned purple-red. His eyes were round and bulging, and his veins were popping. He looked like he was about to suffocate.
It was only then that Lin Shen relaxed his grip slightly, allowing the middle-aged man to pant heavily.
“If you want to live, answer my question obediently. If you lie, you won’t see the sun tomorrow morning. Do you understand?”
The middle-aged man, who had just been on the verge of death, was filled with fear at this moment. When he heard this, he immediately used all his strength to nod repeatedly, afraid that Lin Shen would really break his neck.
“Where are you keeping the spirit cats?” Lin Shen asked coldly.
The middle-aged man’s expression changed, and he looked hesitant. However, in the next second, he felt the hand on his neck tighten.. He was so frightened that he hurriedly said, “It’s in the underground prison of this building!”
