However, I can try to contact the local Embroidered Envoy intelligence network to see if I can find any of their locations that aren’t as important.
These locations where they gather will have a spy or two there to monitor the situation; otherwise, we’d have to find the Devil Sect’s new location again if we immediately destroyed them.
Of course, these locations usually don’t have much value, so I don’t know if they’ll be that useful to sir.”

“We’ll see after you find them.” Zu An had no leads either, so he could only give it a try.
If push came to shove, he’d just have to go himself.

“Understood!” Xiao Jianren cupped his hands.
He was just about to leave when Zu An reached out his hand to stop him.

While Xiao Jianren was confused, Zu An called out seriously, “Since your respected self has come, why don’t we meet and greet each other?”

“Is there someone here?” Xiao Jianren was horrified.
He was a careful person, so he had even set up some small mechanisms nearby.
His ears had always been sharp too.
Only someone like Sir Eleven could enter his room without his notice; it was extremely difficult for others to escape his detection.

And now, even with Sir Eleven’s reminder, he couldn't hear any breathing, nor could he sense any ki fluctuations.
Just how high did the other party’s cultivation have to be to achieve that?

A cold voice spoke from outside just then.
“I was already being careful, yet you still found me out.
As expected of a golden token envoy.”

A dark figure entered, pushing the window open.
Xiao Jianren was about to draw his blade when he was suddenly stunned, as the dark figure removed their stealthy clothing and revealed the clothing underneath.
The special dragon and cloud patterns on it could only belong to another Embroidered Envoy’s uniform.
Furthermore, judging from his gilded collar, it was actually another golden token envoy!

Xiao Jianren quickly greeted them while carefully asking, “Is this Sir Seven, who’s in charge of this place’s information network?” He spent a lot of time in the Embroidery House’s archives, so he naturally knew about such things.

“Golden Token Seven?” Zu An sized up the other party curiously.
After all, it had already been a long time since he had been appointed as a golden token, but this was the first time he had met another golden token envoy.

The other party’s face was covered, so there was no way to see who it was.
However, his eyes were bright and expressive.
Judging from the few wrinkles exposed around the corners of his eyes, Zu An could roughly discern that he was a middle-aged man.
Even though his figure was smaller than average, there was an austere aura around him.
It was easy to see just how important this person was from how Xiao Jianren didn’t even dare to breathe too heavily.

Zu An sensed the other party’s ki fluctuations.
This person was roughly at the ninth rank.
However, after experiencing all of those things, he also knew that as one’s cultivation climbed higher, ki fluctuations weren’t as accurate of a means to measure one’s true cultivation.
Unless they used everything they had in a life and death situation, their normal level of ki fluctuations would vary greatly, let alone the fact that there were many artifacts or techniques that could help conceal one’s real aura.

The small middle-aged man took out a shining golden token and showed it to Zu An, saying, “Identity confirmation, Golden Token Seven.”

Embroidered Envoy items were all standardized.
Outsiders couldn’t imitate them at all.
That was especially true for the special runes engraved on the tokens, which other Embroidered Envoys could easily differentiate.

Xiao Jianren quickly took out his silver envoy token, but the other party didn’t even give him a look.
He only continued to stare at Zu An.
His intentions were clear. This is a conversation between high ranking officers; step off to the side.

Zu An took out his own Golden Token Eleven token to confirm his identity.
Golden Token Seven thus sighed in relief.
However, his brow quickly furrowed as he asked, “Why is your cultivation so low?”

Zu An had Concubine Bai’s spice bag.
Together with the Mirror Mirage technique he cultivated, it was difficult for others to see his true cultivation.
He said indifferently, “It’s enough as long as I can defeat those I want to deal with.”

Golden Token Seven couldn't help but give the other party a look.
This fellow only had six levels of cultivation, yet his speech was definitely quite arrogant.
But he admired such a temperament.
If the other party were a yes-man, it would instead lower the prestige of all of the golden token envoys.
If this person’s cultivation was so low, that meant his majesty and the chief commander valued other aspects of him.

“I came here to ask you all for help in the investigation of a certain matter.” Golden Token Seven slowly explained his purpose for coming.
