Searching for the Duck in the Harem. Eighteen Subduing Dragons.

　　Long Zaitian sent Boss Shen back while I was currently sneaking into the harem.

　　I don't want to anger the League of a.s.sa.s.sins' people, but I have to since they're trying to overthrow the emperor's reign. I still want to stay at Liu Shan Men for a while so I can't let them overthrow the current emperor's reign. Plus, the current emperor isn't an eyesore like that idiot.

　　And thus, I have decided to help out.

　　But I can't b.u.t.t in directly since one, the emperor recognises me. If he recognises me here, my life of retirement will be over. Two, since Fu Xiang knows that I'm the master of Night Fortress, the other members of Mystery should know of the fact too. If they recognise me, their days will be numbered.

　　I therefore need some stuff to disguise myself so that neither side can recognise me. I pondered it over and over. The closest place from here should be the harem's palace. I did guard the south gate and behind it was the cold palace. The cold palace is connected to the harem so I do know the way.

　　I galloped along the palace wall's and listened in carefully to the sounds around to avoid running into a maid or something which would force me to use my Eighteen Subduing Dragon Gropes to resolve the problem.

　　Yours truly's Eighteen Subduing Dragon Gropes has not been seen in the pugilistic world for a long time. I'm afraid people might start questioning its miraculous power.

　　I then heard a graceful whirring voice.

　　"You sure have guts, you scoundrel!"

　　Spare me great female hero!

　　Shocked, I quickly stuck to the wall and didn't dare to budge……

　　The big issue was that this is the harem! Usually, even ordinary people would have to think carefully before bringing a girl into the room, right? The harem is filled with the rooms of females, like the empress, the concubines, and maids…… Every single place here belonged to females.

　　I'm not a player. I'm not so nice that I'd charge into the rooms of twenty females back-to-back……

　　But I didn't see anyone come running out screaming "thief", "pervert" and so on. I felt a little relieved and continued listening in carefully. I heard the voices of a few girls conversing in the flower garden from another side.

　　"I can't believe them." It sounded like a maid was venting as she complained: "These people are far too audacious, daring to barge into the harem's palace even now. If General Manager Bai wasn't skilled, they probably really would've barged in."

　　Another maid piggy-backed off her and said: "Yeah, yeah. These people don't know better, insistently claiming that the harem was hiding a criminal and tried to barge in. My gosh."

　　I finally made some sense of what happened after listening to some more.

　　So not only did the orange prince lockdown the flying fish pavilion, control the imperial guards' system, he even sent his men to the harem to search for the emperor. I'm not sure if their numbers were lacking or what, but General Manager Bai kicked them all out when they got here.

　　I recalled General Manager Bai's beauty and big eyes that looked like they could talk. She was always talking but was very clumsy. She always blushed when she spoke even though n.o.body did anything. From the perspective of outsiders, she was a cold and blunt person. I'll bet she looked violent and lashed out when she had to protect the harem. I couldn't help but find it funny.
