Upon leaving the Judge's office, Ning Xuan went straight to the Drunken Moon Tower. Of course, he kept a low profile, discreetly selecting a room and treating it like an inn.
One day, Ning Xuan had just finished studying the ancient method on the sheepskin scroll when a knock sounded at his door. Three long taps and two short—their agreed-upon secret signal. The moment the person entered, they brought Ning Xuan good news.
"Young Master, we have news about the person you're looking for."
Ning Xuan was overjoyed. "Where is he?" he asked immediately.
"He's in Lingchi City now, and just like you, he's also a Law Enforcement Officer."
Upon hearing this, Ning Xuan's heart sank.
Zang Peng actually became a Law Enforcement Officer? What the hell am I supposed to do now? No one is coming to rescue me from this sea of misery.
Just then, a voice came from outside. "The Judge is back!"
Hearing this, Ning Xuan's spirits lifted, and he left the Drunken Moon Tower at once.
