"Butler, what's going on with Ximen Biao?" Lin Jing asked him.

"Ximen Biao had done something wrong and was chased away by the head of the family. Without the head's permission, they could not enter the Ximen family's residence." The butler said, "Sir Lin, do you still remember that you came to the Xi Men family when you were very young? I wonder if Sir Lin has any impression of them?"

Lin Jing thought for a moment and apologetically said, "It seems I forgot. I should be too young."

"Sir Shangguan, Sir Lin, Sir Liu, we're here. Please wait for a moment, the Patriarch will be here soon." the butler said.

After Shangguan Feng gave his agreement, he began to observe the Xi Men family's situation. The Ximen family did not seem to have any defenses, but in the shadows of the Ximen family, there were countless assassins eyeing them covetously.

Shangguan Feng could vaguely see that among these trees and grasses, many people were hiding, even on the roofs, there were people waiting for him.

"The Ximen family is indeed not ordinary." Shangguan Feng said.

"Looks like we have to be extremely careful in the future." Lin Jing said.

"What did you two see?" Liu Sheng was very dissatisfied with the way the two of them were trying to mystify things.

"The three of you have been waiting for a long time. Please forgive me for not welcoming you." The head of the Xi Men family had come.

"Senior is too polite. Junior and the others have the temerity to come visit, I hope senior will forgive us." Shangguan Feng said.

"Someone, prepare a lunch. I want to have a good drink with the three of you." The head of the Xi Men family said passionately.

"Then I'll accept it." Shangguan Feng said.

The servants were preparing quickly and extravagantly. During this period of time, no one from the Xi Men family disturbed them. Even the Young Master of the Xi Men family had not come. Lin Jing found it strange that only the head of the Xi Men family was here.

However, he did not say it out loud. He did not expect Liu Sheng to ask, "I wonder what are the young masters of the Ximen family doing?"

"Looks like Young Master Liu is angry at this old man for not being able to provide enough hospitality." The head of the Xi Men family said, "If they can't make it on stage, you can't come out and embarrass them."

"Patriarch Xi Men, don't blame me. Brother Liu is an impetuous person with no ill intentions, but since the Patriarch said that they would not be able to make it onto the stage, I think it would be too modest. Everyone knows about the Ximen family's assassins. Is young master doing some kind of mission? " Lin Jing was somewhat curious.

"Brother Lin is too straightforward, please do not blame the Patriarch." Shangguan Feng showed up on time and stopped them from talking. "Let's continue." He didn't want to talk about it anymore.

"Alright, cheers." The head of the Xi Men family did not say anything more. After the four of them had eaten their food with ulterior motives, the head of the Xi Men family instructed: "Are the guest rooms ready?" The head of the Xi Men family asked, "Also, three young masters, come from afar. You can bring the three of you to take a look around and see the layout of the Xi Men family."

"Then, thank you, Patriarch, for your kindness." Shangguan Feng said.

The three of them were quite tired and the Ximen family did not pose any threat to them. Therefore, they decided to take this opportunity to rest up. If they were to lose decorum with the Ximen family in the future, the Ximen family would not be as safe as it was now.

The three of them rested without worries and only woke up in the evening. After a simple wash, they walked out. It was as if they had always agreed on it. The servants who served them before they found each other at the same time and said they wanted to take a look at the Ximen family.

These servants all felt that it was strange. It was night now and they could not see anything during the day, but they had to take a look at the Ximen family. However, because of the order from the family head, they had to bring three people with them to watch over the Ximen family. However, the three of them were not heading in the same direction, which made the servants angry: "You guys are feeling better, sleeping well yourself. We've been working all day and even accompanied you around."

As a result, the three of them headed in three different directions.

The servants did not report back to the head of the family because they thought it was a small matter. Those who were watching them retreated temporarily because they were worried Shangguan Feng would find them uncomfortable, so they let their servants watch them instead.

The three of them went to the garden of the Ximen family, the backyard of the Ximen family, and the front door of the Ximen family. When they looked at the three of them, they realized that there were actually so many people secretly watching the activities of the entire family.

However, the head of the Xi Men family knew about this because of the butler's complaints.

"These people are really troublesome. They have to go out at night, so the servants are very dissatisfied with them." the butler complained.

"The servants are all lazy, so what if they serve the guests? If these three people are not satisfied, then our Xi Men family is in some danger." The head of the Xi Men family asked, "What do you think they want to do in the middle of the night?" The head of the Xi Men family asked subconsciously.

"They just woke up at night and didn't even talk about eating before they started to wander around the garden of the Ximen family. Don't you think these people are sick?" muttered the butler.

"The three of them together?" The head of the Xi Men family asked.

"No, I went to the same place by myself." said the butler. "Do you think they're sick?" The butler seemed indifferent.

"You're very smart." He did not know if the Xi Men family head was praising the butler, "Get someone to prepare dinner. I will call them back." Although the head of the Xi Men family was a little surprised, he still said calmly.

"Just send someone to inform him." the butler said in surprise.

"This isn't something that will come back after a short notice." "The head of the Xi Men family said with a smile." "Where did Shangguan Feng go?"

"In the garden." the butler said.

"Come, let's go to the garden." The head of the Xi Men family said.

Shangguan Feng was looking at the arrangement of the Ximen family in the garden, calculating in his mind when he could pass through this garden without being discovered, when he saw someone coming, "Looks like I'm not the only one interested, there are others here as well." Shangguan Feng said with a smile.

The servants were also surprised. Why were there so many strange people tonight?

As they approached, the servants realized that the family head had arrived and quickly bowed.

"So it's the family head. The family head is really interested, to think that he has fallen in love with this place too." Shangguan Feng said.

"No, I heard that Shangguan Gongzi still hasn't eaten, so I arranged a servant to prepare something and specifically come to find you!" The Patriarch of the Xi Men family said, "What about the other two? Not together? " The head of the Xi Men family asked in surprise.

"They didn't like the garden, so they went around by themselves." Shangguan Fengyin said a bit angrily, "Everyone's the same, why would they listen to me?" Shangguan Feng Lin seemed a bit unhappy.

"Follow me first." The head of the Xi Men family said, "I will send someone to inform them." The head of the Xi Men family said with a smile, "You're young, don't fuss about it."
