Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 637 - 600: Reaching the Peak 9 (4,000 words)

On one side, Wu Zhao seed to have a sche, and on the other side, after walking a stretch with Tan Feiyu, Tan Shuangshuang started to walk slower and slower because she felt Wu Zhao’s attitude was quite strange. His coming out today seed like he was only inviting humiliation upon himself, which was rather abnormal.

By all accounts, after Wu Zhao suffered a major setback at the hands of Tan Shuangshuang the last ti, he shouldn’t be confronting her before recovering. Yet, Wu Zhao dashed out in a hurry, picked a fight with no rhy or reason, which turned out to be much ado about nothing, utterly bizarre.

This act was foolish beyond imagination; it wasn’t just a loss of clarity, but as if he’d cleared out his brains, entirely irrational and played around by Tan Feiyu like a clown. It shouldn’t be like this. In the past, while Wu Zhao suffered many losses against Tan Feiyu, there was not always a losing streak.

In fact, many tis, Wu Zhao’s inability to best Tan Feiyu wasn’t because he couldn’t outsmart him, but because the Wu family often couldn’t confront the Tan family head-on, resulting in constant limitations. Under such circumstances, today’s one-sided situation was quite abnormal.

Rather than Wu Zhao being muddled and looking for trouble, Tan Shuangshuang was more inclined to believe that Wu Zhao’s attitude was ant to stall her and Tan Feiyu, thus coming up with an excuse to attract their attention and ensuring they wouldn’t leave imdiately.

"Feiyu." Tan Shuangshuang turned her head to look at Tan Feiyu, who she had just admonished, now dejected, and asked, "I rember when you ca out, you chatted with the patrol guard at the gate for a bit. He even casually asked you where you were going. Are you familiar with that person?"

Tan Feiyu recalled, "Are you talking about Big Brother Wang Shuo? Yes, I’m quite familiar with him. His aunt’s daughter works as a maid in the Wu household and often hears inside news. Big Brother Wang Shuo frequently tells these insights, which have embarrassed Wu Zhao several tis!"

Tan Shuangshuang raised an eyebrow. This person was indeed smart, clearly laying out his relationship with the Wu family. It didn’t arouse suspicion of any collusion with them; rather, Tan Feiyu treated Wang Shuo’s connection to the Wu family as a convenient channel for gathering information.

"Sister Shuangshuang, why are you asking about this? You never cared about such trivial matters," Tan Feiyu remarked, only realizing the oddity after speaking and couldn’t help but question Tan Shuangshuang.

Tan Shuangshuang rely gave a faint smile without directly answering Tan Feiyu’s question, simply replying with a cryptic, "See for yourself," and continued to walk leisurely forward.

They had reached the foot of Mang Mountain, and soon they would enter the peripheral areas. Tan Shuangshuang led Tan Feiyu at a very leisurely pace, casually plucking flowers and grass along the way, walking extrely slowly since she wasn’t the one in a hurry.

Inside Mang Mountain, beasts and magic beasts were everywhere. To prevent ordinary people or those of lower level from wandering in, most of the outer areas were fenced off, with only a few fixed entry points. Each entrance was guarded by Qingyun City’s dedicated patrol guards.

Entering and leaving Mang Mountain didn’t require a fee, just entry and exit through designated points. Tan Shuangshuang and Tan Feiyu leisurely entered Mang Mountain and continued their slow journey inward.

As they walked, Tan Shuangshuang pulled Tan Feiyu along to admire the scenery. The siblings could spend a good while appreciating a single flower, and after quite so ti, they only barely entered the outskirts of Mang Mountain, where a fine callia caught their attention, causing them to stop and admire it, again drawing their attention away.

Above them, in the trees, Mr. Lan, who was hired by Wu Zhao to deal with Tan Shuangshuang and her brother, was going crazy. He had never seen such dawdling people!

Mr. Lan was a professional headhunter, commonly known as an assassin. He had no moral limits; as long as the employer could pay, he could bring back the target’s head whether they were an elderly man or a walking toddler.

This ti, Mr. Lan took on a killing contract, targeting highly prestigious individuals, two legitimate descendants of the Tan family, Qingyun City’s premier family.

Initially, Mr. Lan didn’t want to accept the task because it was too troubleso and could easily spell disaster. He was just an ordinary headhunter, incapable of offending a powerful family head entrenched in a fourth-grade city like the Tan Family.
