Lin Fan and the girls didn't go meet the guest right away.
Instead, they went into the walls of the inn to observe them.
After what had happened last time, they had prepared this secret room so that they could observe the guests that came.
Of course, it was only because Lin Fan revealed that he was the dungeon master that they were able to build this. This gap in between the walls had only been formed because this building had been integrated into the dungeon.
So Lin Fan was able to reshape this inn as he pleased with the dungeon master system.
This also made it much safer since this was a building that was created by the dungeon system. It was ensured to keep cultivators up to the Golden Core Realm from noticing them if they were inside of the walls peeking.
They didn't need to worry about being caught like this.
As they watched, they couldn't find anything special about these visitors.
But there was one single person in this group that was special compared to the others.
This one single cloaked person never took off their cloak, even when they were in the room. They didn't eat or drink a single thing and just sat there apart from the others, not saying a thing.
The other members of the group didn't mind this and just completely ignored this person.
However, at the same time, they could see the respect that the others in the group were paying this person.
It was as if they were scared of that person…
But Lin Fan wasn't able to see through that person at all, even when he used his Appraisal Eyes. It was just like the time with the other cloaked people when he went to Night Fang City.
The cloak that this person had was most likely a special cloaked that blocked spiritual sense.
So he stopped spying on them and had Yue Lan prepare a banquet to welcome them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince there was nothing to gain from watching them, he would meet them to see what they wanted. Not to mention, it wouldn't be good to keep this group from the fourth prince waiting for long.
When they arrived at the banquet that Yue Lan prepared, Lin Fan stood up to welcome them.
However, before he could even say a thing, the cloaked figure took the opportunity to come forward and say, "I want to speak alone."
None of his group who had come in with him dared to say a thing as they all waited for Lin Fan's response.
Lin Fan couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this.
He narrowed his eyes to look at this cloaked figure for a bit before giving a nod in response.
He waved his hand to have Yue Lan bring some people in to entertain the other members of this group before giving a gesture to the cloaked figure to follow him. The cloaked figure didn't hesitate at all to go in the direction that Lin Fan gestured in.
However, there were two other cloaked figures that came along with this person.
Lin Fan had checked these two earlier and had found that they were both in the Qi Condensing Realm.
These two were clearly bodyguards, but these were strong bodyguards for a random person like this cloaked figure…
Behind the two of them were Yue Lan and Ming Xin who followed them to the secret room.
This was a secret room in the inn that had also been built recently, but it was similar to the secret room in the town hall. It would prevent anyone from eavesdropping on them.
After they arrived, the cloaked figure looked to his two bodyguards, as if he was confirming something. After seeing them give nods in response, he pointed at Yue Lan and Ming Xin before asking Lin Fan, "Are they staying?"
Lin Fan just nodded and said, "Anything you can say to me, you can say to them."
The cloaked figure remained silent for a bit before giving a nod as well.
Then in front of them, this cloaked figure pulled back the hood of their cloak and revealed their appearance.
The moment that Lin Fan and the two girls saw the face under the cloak, they couldn't help being shocked.
It was a face that they recognized as soon as they saw it.
It was a face that most people would recognize as soon as they saw it because of how popular it was right now.
It was the face of the fourth prince.
But why was it the fourth prince?
Why would the fourth prince personally come to their city like this?
It just didn't make any sense.
The three of them just stood there in shock for a bit before Yue Lan was the first to recover. She poked the other two in the ribs and then started falling to her knees.
Lin Fan and Ming Xin immediately understood what was happening and they quickly bowed down as well.
But before they could, the fourth prince raised his hand and said, "There's no need for that. I am not here as the fourth prince."
The tone of his voice made it clear that he wasn't kidding and he was here for something serious.
But that made it hard for Lin Fan and the others. After all, this was the fourth prince and it was hard for them to act that casually around him.
The fourth prince saw this, so he said, "I am not the fourth prince right now, I am simply Mu Fu Bao. You can address me as such."
Lin Fan and the other two revealed difficult looks again after hearing this.
Lin Fan took the lead and said, "Your highness…"
The fourth prince raised his hand again and said, "Just call me young master Mu then. Is that acceptable for you?"
Lin Fan looked at the two girls and seeing them both nod, he nodded as well before saying, "Young master Mu, are you here because of the matter of the Dragon Tongue Herb?"
The fourth prince gave a nod as an appreciative look appeared in his eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was someone who liked being efficient, so he didn't like wasting time with small talk. Since Lin Fan acted this way, he naturally gained the fourth prince's praise.
But he didn't let that look stay in his eyes for long as he regained his serious look and he said, "It is indeed the matter of the Dragon Tongue Herb that I'm here." Without wasting any time, he jumped right into the main topic, "I want to take all the documents that you brought back and I want to look over them myself."
Lin Fan had already expected this, though he didn't expect the fourth prince to personally come for this matter. So he just gave a nod and said, "We'll pack up everything and bring it over right away."
It didn't matter if the fourth prince took everything since Yue Lan and Ming Xin had already copied everything over. Anything that they could have gotten from the documents was already written down, so they had no need for these documents in the first place.
So it was better to give them to the fourth prince than to hold onto them.
But the fourth prince clearly wasn't done yet based on the look on his face.
Lin Fan and the two girls just sat there in silence waiting for the fourth prince to say something, but he remained silent the entire time.
Finally, after a long period of silence, the fourth prince said with a smile, "You've done very well this time."
Lin Fan was caught off guard by this sudden praise from the fourth prince, but he quickly cupped his hand and gave a bow to the fourth prince as he said, "Young master Mu, your praise is too much."
The fourth prince gave a nod before saying, "With talent like this, it's really surprising that you haven't made a name for yourself earlier."
Lin Fan couldn't help feeling more uneasy when he heard this, but he forced himself to remain calm as he said, "Young master Mu, I just want to live a simple life. Sometimes, it's better not to be known."
The fourth prince narrowed his eyes when he heard this as he looked at Lin Fan.
Just like this, the two of them sat there in silence, not saying a single word.
Then the fourth prince suddenly gave a clap before saying with a smile, "Regardless, it is our Mu Empire's blessing that someone like you is willing to work for the future of our empire."
Lin Fan's uneasy feeling became even stronger.
To the back Yue Lan and Ming Xin could both hear that there was something strange about the way the fourth prince said this and they knew that…this matter wasn't over.
It wouldn't be as simple as handing over the documents, or why else would someone as important as the fourth prince come to a place like this?
It was clear that the fourth prince had another request for Lin Fan.
It had to be an important one if the fourth prince himself came in person, so this was definitely a turning point.
Lin Fan just calmly looked at the fourth prince without saying anything, waiting for the fourth prince to finish his words.
The fourth prince kept staring at Lin Fan with that smile without saying a word. Seeing the way that Lin Fan looked back at him, he gave an appreciative nod before saying, "You've already guessed it, I do have another task for you."
