"Does the Villa Master not know?" Gongsun Li was also somewhat surprised; he had always known that Lin Xin had more than one channel for intelligence, and he couldn't believe that Lin Xin was unaware of such a significant matter.
"What matter?"
Now it was Lin Xin's turn to be startled.
Gongsun Li turned his face to look at the disciples practicing in the morning, the continuous shouts and calls echoing nonstop.
He let out a somewhat melancholic sigh.
"On the eighteenth day past, in the border region of the Song State, Young Master Zhen was investigating an incident where a manor disciple met with an accidental death. Unexpectedly, he encountered an ambush by the Star Calamity Hall operatives of the Red Mansion. They deployed thirteen Qi Refinement experts and also had a master from the Void Sword Cave hiding nearby. Fortunately, Young Master Zhen is versed in the Formation Path; using the Jade Array Plate, he concealed himself and fled all the way."
