Because he just left with ambiguous word, it made Senja alarmed and added another thing to her concerned. How could he make a threatening words sound like poetry with calm manner?
In the other end, those guards outside Senja's room were surprised when the person who emerged from inside the room was actually their Commander Xiao. Since when was he inside the room? No one saw him come in!
But, of course they were clever enough to not make a 'pip' about this.
***
Near the first gate Utara received a missive from Xiao Tianyao's people in City L. because it was an important message, he ran to study room just only to find out Xiao Tianyao wasn't there.
He had asked the shadow guards who supposed to be entrusted with responsibility to guards him but they also didn't aware about their Commander whereabouts. Utara could only waiting for him, if Xiao Tianyao not let anyone to know his whereabouts then, no one could say otherwise.
Utara had been waiting for almost 2 hours and when he grew impatient, Xiao Tianyao came.
"Tianyao, where have you been?" Utara almost jumped from his chair because of excitement.
Looking Utara in high spirit Xiao Tianyao only sat on the wooden chair while gestured him to sit back. "Good news?"
Utara nodded vigorously and hand over the missive but because he was very excited, before Xiao Tianyao could even open the letter, Utara had recited the content of the letter for him.
"Surprisingly, our people got the missive of L clan along with the news sender. He has taken into custody in City L district 8" Utara said excitedly and added "However, the secret order that the messenger brought was written in strange language, maybe it was a code? Moreover, we must take a look of it soon. Last time we went to City L's Roccaleaf Tea House we had got news that L Clan would transfer their 'baggage' to City M. Who would have thought that the 'baggage' they were sending would be sent from city L. Should we tell Elder Dam about this?"
Xiao Tianyao shook his head. "No, not yet"
Utara just nodded obediently upon his rejection. "The content of the secret order must be mention about the date and time about it. We will a step closer to catch Gooza" Utara rattled out his opinion.
Xiao Tianyao opened the missive, the content indeed exactly the same as Utara told him. After confirmed the missive, he give it back to Utara. "I will go to district 8"
Even though Utara was elated by the good news but upon hearing Xiao Tianyao easily change their direction make Utara looked at him quizzically "Tianyao, I know it is important but you can't ditched Leader Mo. We suppose to meet him tonight"
Their original plan was to go to City L district 3 to meet with Unit Force Leader Mo Ling Tian to retrieved news from an agent about City Q's rebellion, it was also something important.
Because of the relationship between the L Clan and the Misty Cloud Clan, Xiao Tianyao interest regarding matters about L Clan almost like obsessed.
"You go there and retrieved the agent" Xiao Tianyao ordered shortly.
Utara face contorted, his happy feeling vanished when he heard his order.
"Tianyao… you know his rank is 2 level higher than me, Leader Mo is the crown prince's faction if it wasn't because you pressed him to such an extent, he would continue to refuse to cooperate with us and now you asked me to retrieved the agent alone? He even won't spare me a glance" Utara very reluctance to meet Leader mo without Xiao Tianyao. Things wouldn't run smoothly between them.
Xiao Tianyao seemed like he didn't hear Utara's plea, he started to open another report on the table while throwing another order "Prepare carriage when you are out"
"Carriage?" Utara was befuddled by Xiao Tianyao request. Since when did he like to go travel with carriage? "You will go to district 8 with carriage?"
Xiao Tianyao raised his eyes to look at Utara for short moment before solemnly read the report again.
"I will bring Senja with me"
"You will bring Senja with you to meet L Clan member? You will let her know? She is one of them. She is one of Misty Cloud Clan's people don't you think it would ruin our plan by let her know that their secret missive has fallen into our hand?"
Ok. Now I am totally clueless with his schemed. What will he do to Senja?
However Xiao Tianyao didn't budge. "And also that soldier named Yoda"
"Tianyao what is your plan?" Utara scratched his head, befuddled. Although he wasn't considered as peerless genius but he was quite intelligent. Still, he couldn't catch up with the way Xiao Tianyao's brain working.
Xiao Tianyao handsome face was frowning upon hearing Utara question "Can't you see it? It's very obvious"
Utara : "…"
Oh, spare me your Highness but this humble one definitely blind and need your guidance.
