My identity as Long Yin, Qin Tian does not intend to tell anyone, including Xiao Zhuang and other brothers.

After all, once his identity is discovered, it may lead to another bloody storm, and Xiao Zhuang and the others would definitely not be able to withstand it.

Xiao Zhuang is not stupid either. After Qin Tian said this, he glanced at Qin Tian a couple of times. Seeing that Qin Tian had no intention of continuing, he responded with an ”Oh” and said, ”Alright, I’ll start making arrangements now.”

At night, in the dead of night, Qin Tian was cultivating in his room, his brow furrowed tightly.

Due to the impact of Xu Junwei being captured, these days, he had even neglected his cultivation, unable to proceed, still lingering in the early stage of the Longevity Realm, somewhat stagnant.

The so-called Longevity Realm is the key path to immortality after crossing tribulation.

Tribulation crossing is difficult, breaking into longevity, attaining immortality!

Qin Tian has been in the Longevity Realm for more than half a year now, still in the early stage, which makes him feel immense pressure to continue moving forward.

But the matters concerning Xu Junwei and White Fox indeed distracted him greatly.

”I need to find a way to find out if Xu Junwei is still alive, and then find a way to save him.”

Qin Tian thought to himself.

As for the White Fox’s matter, Qin Tian’s target is very clear now.

He wants to visit the City Guard Army’s government office more often, and interact more with Du Yun, Du Fang, Du Yiheng, and Bai Xiuqin to understand the identity backgrounds of these four people, and who they interact with.

Who is the White Fox? Now Qin Tian needs to conduct the final investigation.

The next day, he went to the City Guard Army’s government office. In the past, Qin Tian never visited, but this time he took the initiative to visit, went to the adjacent office, and proactively greeted Du Yun, the three others, and Bai Xiuqin.

Of course, Qin Tian didn’t engage in conversation without a reason but used the pretext of bringing some specialties from the East Sea to get closer to them.

Among these four generals, only Bai Xiuqin held some real power, while the others were generals responsible for making plans and managing logistics.

They were quite enthusiastic about Qin Tian’s proactive approach to engage and build a relationship, except for Du Yun, the other three were quite warm.

Du Yun’s reaction to Qin Tian was cold. She casually acknowledged his greeting and then walked away without looking at Qin Tian.

Du Yiheng was enthusiastic, proactively chatting with Qin Tian about curiosities and even inviting Qin Tian to join him for a meal.

Du Fang behaved neither warmly nor coldly. She did not appear to actively accommodate Qin Tian, but neither was she chilly. She dealt with Qin Tian with good manners but maintained a noticeable distance.

As for Bai Xiuqin, Qin Tian already knew her before, and she seemed to have intentions to build a good relationship with him.

After work that day, Bai Xiuqin found Qin Tian and curiously asked, ”General Qin, it’s been a few days since Wang Yushan died, and there’s still no news from the Governor or the City Guard Army. You were the general guarding the prison then, do you know if Wang Yushan confessed? What exactly did he confess to? Was he really Long Yin? Did he name any accomplices… were they exposed by him too?”

Facing Bai Xiuqin’s curious inquiry, Qin Tian stared at her, observing the subtle expressions on her face, and said, ”I really don’t know about that; I only know that Wang Yushan was tortured to death by people from the Soul Suppressing Hall. It seems he was arrogant, and it was very difficult for the Soul Suppressing Hall to get anything out of him… As for whether he confessed in the end, I really don’t know. Since the Soul Suppressing Hall handles the cases, we all had to stay far away; I’m not clear about their final outcomes.”

When Qin Tian said this, he noticed Bai Xiuqin visibly relaxed, and she quickly asked back, ”General Bai, are you asking me this because… you wouldn’t know Wang Yushan was Long Yin, would you?”

”Don’t talk nonsense!”

Bai Xiuqin quickly interrupted Qin Tian, glanced around, and said:

”General Qin, you mustn’t talk nonsense like this. If someone hears, it would certainly be trouble for me. Long Yin… haha, I’ve only heard many legends about Long Yin. To make me Long Yin, do you think it’s possible? Right now, I just want to manage logistics well and take good care of my two children, and that’s it. As for Long Jun or Long Yin… I think it would be best if they are eliminated quickly to avoid the Ice Emperor causing big trouble and the Soul Suppressing Hall killing innocents indiscriminately.”

Bai Xiuqin vented to Qin Tian, and Qin Tian continued to observe her, watching the subtle changes in her micro-expressions, as he kept guessing in his heart—

Is Bai Xiuqin the White Fox?

After parting with Bai Xiuqin, Qin Tian returned to his mansion, repeatedly recalling today’s conversation with Bai Xiuqin.

”Her concern about Wang Yushan is indeed quite normal, considering she was Wang Yushan’s superior. Of course, she’s afraid of being implicated, so she took the initiative to ask me these questions… I can’t just conclude she’s the White Fox based on her curiosity. I can’t make such judgments; let’s wait and see, perhaps it’s one of the other three people.”

”Young Master, you’ve returned.”

Qin Tian returned to the mansion, and the maid Yun Luo warmly greeted him.

”Young Master, I saved a meal for you, it’s hot. Please eat before you bathe and change clothes.”

Yun Luo prepared the meal for Qin Tian. As a top maid, the meal was naturally incredibly delicious.

As Qin Tian was eating, Yun Luo suddenly brought him a letter and handed it to him, saying, ”Young Master, here is a letter received today, supposedly from the Imperial City.”

Yun Luo handed the envelope over.

On hearing that the letter was from the Imperial City, Qin Tian immediately woke up from his daze. He knew it must be a letter from Murong Fei.

However, when Qin Tian took the envelope, he noticed that it appeared to have been opened!

Though the traces were extremely subtle, and almost negligible, he still noticed them.

He looked up to see Yun Luo, smiling warmly and innocently at him. Qin Tian quickly gathered his thoughts, put the envelope away, and said, ”Got it, you may leave now, I’ll sit here for a bit.”

”Yes, Young Master.”

After Yun Luo left, Qin Tian finally opened the envelope.

As expected, it was a letter from Murong Fei. The content was simple: ”Arrived at Imperial City, working in the palace, all is well, don’t worry.” The signature was ”Murong Fei”!

This was Murong Fei’s letter to Qin Tian, reassuring him, but after reading it, Qin Tian felt immensely uneasy!

He was sure that Yun Luo had opened this letter and read its contents!

Qin Tian remembered that Xu Junwei had previously warned him that this Yun Luo was most likely planted by the City Lord Mansion!

Now it seemed true!

And if Yun Luo had read the contents of this letter, it also meant the City Lord Mansion knew about it too, especially the third son of the City Lord, Nangong Bingfeng.

If this guy knew that Murong Fei had specifically written him a letter, such an intimate letter of reassurance, he’d probably jump with anger, wouldn’t he?
