Gao Yushan asked Old Zhang, "Uncle Zhang, where's my dad?"

Old Zhang said to Gao Yushan, "President Gao is currently receiving distinguished guests from Central China. He's busy right now. If you need anything, you can let me know."

Old Zhang is Gao Lian's brother, and they are as close as brothers. Gao Yushan is someone Old Zhang has watched grow up since she was a child, so in Gao Yushan's eyes, Old Zhang is no different from her uncle.

Old Zhang is also an elder whom Gao Yushan respects and trusts.

Gao Yushan was silent for a moment, then said to Old Zhang, "Uncle Zhang, I've been having the same dream lately."

Old Zhang asked, "What kind of dream?"

Gao Yushan said, “I keep dreaming that I am in a pure white space that can’t be seen at all. There is a middle-aged man in the space who keeps telling me to go to Changbai Mountain to find him.”

Old Zhang said, "Your dream is really strange. Why would it tell you to go to Changbai Mountain to find him? Could it be that some deity sent you a message in your dream?"

Gao Yushan said, "It's definitely not a deity. We have a shrine to the senior Hu Tianbiao in our family. Deities don't usually appear in my dreams, and I'm not good at spirit mediumship."

Gao Yushan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Moreover, that man told me his name: Gu Qiting!"

Hear the name.

The smile on Old Zhang's face froze instantly.

A storm raged in Old Zhang's heart!

One of the Thirty-Six Thieves of yesteryear!

The master of one of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, [Da Luo Dong Guan], disappeared without a trace after the Jia Shen Rebellion and has never been seen again!

Having lived in Northeast China for so many years, Lao Zhang naturally knew the allure of the Eight Extraordinary Skills, something Gao Yushan hadn't discovered.

A glint of greed flashed in Old Zhang's eyes.

Seeing Old Zhang's expression, Gao Yushan asked, "Uncle Zhang, do you know who Gu Jiting is?"

Gao Yushan was well protected by Gao Lian since childhood, so she was very simple-minded. Because she trusted Lao Zhang, she told him everything.

Moreover, the name Gu Jiting is top secret, and Gao Yushan has no authority to access it.

However, as the second-in-command of the Northeast region, Lao Zhang must know.

Old Zhang said to Gao Yushan, "Yushan, Gu Jiting was one of the Thirty-Six Thieves back then, and the one who mastered one of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, the Great Luo Cave Observation!"

Gao Yushan didn't know Gu Jiting, but she did know about the Thirty-Six Thieves and the Eight Extraordinary Skills.

Gao Yushan opened her mouth wide in surprise!

"Uncle Zhang, so tell me, should I go or not?"

Old Zhang deliberately said, "Yushan, you'd better not go. President Gao definitely won't agree to you going; it's too dangerous."

"Also, Mr. Gao said that for a girl, being untalented is a virtue, and she should just find a good man to marry in the future, so he definitely won't let you take this risk!"

Hearing this, Gao Yushan was displeased!

"Hmph! What do you mean by 'a lack of talent is a virtue'! He won't let me go! I'm going anyway!"

"Uncle Zhang, please, please don't tell my dad."

Old Zhang pretended to hesitate, "But..."

Gao Yushan shook Old Zhang's arm and said, "Uncle Zhang, please, don't tell my dad. If I really learn the Eight Extraordinary Skills, I'll teach you too!"

Old Zhang nodded then, "Alright then!"

Gao Yushan exclaimed excitedly, "Yay! That's awesome!"

Gao Yushan then skipped away.

But in Old Zhang's eyes, there was a hint of smugness and greed.

.........

Just then, Lin Shen led Chen Duo out of Gao Lian's office.

Old Zhang was in a good mood. When he saw Lin Shen, he greeted him, "Lin Shen, are you and President Gao finished with your work?"

Lin Shen nodded.

Feeling something was off, he activated his "Observation Haki" and then tried to read Old Zhang's mind.

Immediately, important information appeared in Lin Shen's mind.

Gao Yushan is still alive and well; she is still a normal person.

Also, there's important information about Da Luo Cave, Changbai Mountain, Guji Pavilion, and so on.

Old Zhang had no idea that Lin Shen knew everything he was thinking.

Chapter 57 Bihe Mountain

Before we knew it, it was evening.

On a dark and windy night, Old Zhang, with his face covered, left the headquarters of Northeast All-in-One and took a taxi to a villa area.

“Knock, knock, knock…”

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of one of the houses.

An elderly man wearing a wool sweater is reading a newspaper.

The old man was puzzled when he heard the knocking.

"Who could it be so late? Butterfly, go and see."

The old man's name was Ishihara... no, Ishijun.

He was an ordinary local businessman, but in secret, Shi Chun was the highest leader of the entire Bihe Mountain in the Northeast.

Shi Chun's revenge plan was also quite simple.

That is, to give up revenge.

Then, the ninja of Mount Hiei were taught the local language and customs, and were completely integrated into the Tohoku region.

This allowed the Hirayama Ninja Clan to take root and gradually infiltrate the Northeast.

Butterfly, one of the Ten Ninja of Mount Hiei, is a survivor. She is now hunched over with gray hair. Butterfly opened the door.

Old Zhang rushed in instantly.

Then, he closed the door!

Butterfly didn't recognize Old Zhang and exclaimed in surprise, "Ah—!"

Old Zhang was stunned for a moment, then said to Butterfly, "Senior Butterfly, it's me, Old Zhang!"

Shi Chun's gaze toward Old Zhang was filled with rage.

"Old Zhang! Who let you come?!"

"Didn't I tell you? Revealing your identity is strictly prohibited!"

But a light gleamed in Old Zhang's eyes.

Old Zhang said to Shi Chun, "Senior Shi Yuan, I've encountered an extremely urgent matter!"

Shi Chun snorted coldly, "My name is Shi Chun."

"Also, we must not reveal our identities in any way. If our contact is discovered and Gao Lian becomes suspicious, all our previous efforts will be in vain, and I might even be implicated!"

"Old Zhang, what's the important thing? If it's not important, I might not be so polite to you."

Butterfly then spoke to Old Zhang in a somewhat gloomy tone.

Old Zhang took a deep breath and said to Shi Chun, "Senior Shi Chun, I have received confirmed information!"

"Gao Lian's second daughter will be going to Changbai Mountain to see Gu Jiting, and Gu Jiting is the master of one of the Eight Extraordinary Skills, [Da Luo Dong Guan]. If we capture Gu Jiting, it will be equivalent to our Bihe Mountain obtaining Da Luo Dong Guan. Isn't that good news?"

Old Zhang was excited to see this.

Shi Chun poured cold water on Old Zhang's enthusiasm, asking, "Where did you get this information?"

Old Zhang said, "Gao Yushan told me that she is very kind and trusts me a lot, and would never lie to me."

Shi Chun continued, "Even if the news is true, why do you think we can capture Gu Qiting?"

"As far as I know, the Shuzi Sect once tried to capture Gu Qiting, but they failed. The leader of the Shuzi Sect even went mad. What makes you think we can capture Gu Qiting?"

Old Zhang was silent for a moment, then said, "Senior Shi Chun, even if we can't catch Gu Jiting, we can catch Gao Yushan. I don't believe that Gu Jiting's dream visit to Gao Yushan was just a simple meeting!"

Shi Chun gave Lao Zhang a deep look and asked, "You've watched Gao Yushan grow up since she was a child. How can you treat her like this?"

Old Zhang gritted his teeth and said, "There's nothing I can't bear to do. I was originally a ninja from Mount Hiei, and I joined the company to revive Mount Hiei. If a mere girl can die for the revival of Mount Hiei, it would be an honor for her!"

Butterfly looked at Old Zhang with great satisfaction.

However, Shi Chun had a slightly uneasy feeling.

After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Shi Chun asked Old Zhang, "Old Zhang, what do you want to do?"

Old Zhang said, "What I want to do is very simple. Senior Shi Chun, you should order the ninjas of Bihe Mountain to capture Gu Jiting. If they fail, they should capture Gao Yushan instead. I will not show up and will continue to stay by Gao Lian's side."

Shi Chun looked at Die and asked, "Die, what do you think?"

A fierce glint flashed in Die's eyes as she said to Shi Chun, "I think it's feasible."

Shi Chun slammed his fist on the table and declared, "Alright! It's settled then, let's do it the way Old Zhang says!"

.........

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Lin Shen printed out the address from the USB drive Gao Lian gave him and discovered that the Tengshan Sect's territory was also in Changbai Mountain.
