“Tua Qian! Come with me. We're going to the town hall, see my uncle. While you guys rest alone,” Gu Yao said as they reached the front of the inn.
“Is it okay young master Yao to go alone?” gu Xu asked worried that Gu Yao might be attacked by Gu Lin's Swordsman.
“Not to worry, we only ask Uncle for permission to meet with Xiuhuan. After that we will return to the inn again,” said Gu Yao. He then glanced at Gu Ruyan who was still moody since earlier. “Yer you don't have to think strangely, we can't have the heart to tell you to do that. I will find another way, for him to join us,” Gu Yao comforted Gu Ruyan.
Gu Ruyan did not respond to anything, making Gu Xu feel guilty, for spouting those words earlier. Then Gu Yao told him to look inside the inn. While Gu Yao and Gu Qian directly rushed to the Kunming City hall.

Gu Ruyan immediately threw her body on the soft bed, the upscale inn of Kunming city. He was still thinking about Gu Xu's words earlier.
Since childhood Gu Ruyan had been adopted by the Gu Yao family. So that there is a sense of indebtedness, in his opinion at this time. Especially when Gu Lin did the cleaning up against Gu Yao's family and his supporters. Gu Ruyan couldn't do anything, she felt like she was a burden on Gu Yao alone.
Just as Gu Yao was about to escape from Gu Lin's pursuit of the Swordsman, he was actually able to bring his mother away. But in those crucial moments, Gu Yao's mother instead ordered her to carry Gu Ruyan alone. So now Gu Yao's mother has to suffer as her husband's own murderous concubine.

Inside the Kunming City Hall.
“Whataaa? You want to meet Xiuhuan and try to recruit him?” Chen Liu was shocked to hear Gu Yao's request to her father.
“He's a dangerous man Yao. I know you want to immediately release your mother and demand a reply to Gu Lin. But if you only rely on Xiuhuan and your hundreds of loyal followers, I guess that is not enough against Gu Lin who has thousands of Swordsmen and elders from the Yellow Bamboo sect.”
Mayor Kunming was surprised by the request of his nephew, who wanted to meet Xiuhuan in the dungeon and wanted to negotiate with him.
“You don't have to persuade me anymore, I'm already firm with my stance. It's been ten years since that incident. Want to see when you suffer there?” sahut Gu Yao again.
Mayor Kunming sighed deeply. “I couldn't do anything to save your mother. But as a small favor from me, I'll let you in and out of the dungeon. Do your best to melt Xiuhuan's heart, so that he will join you.” He finally had to obey Gu Yao's wishes.
“Thanks Uncle!” suhut Gu Yao was pleased. “Old Qian, we're going to the dungeon right now.” Gu Yao stood up.
“Wait!” chen Liu exclaimed at Gu Yao's footsteps. “You don't visit him first. Let him feel constrained a few days there, so you have a selling point when negotiating.”
“Betul is also the young master. If we go there right now, he must think we need him the most. Then he will apply the conditions that we are difficult to accept,” interrupted Gu Qian.
Gu Yao followed Chen Liu's proposal, to visit him the next few days only. He then went to Shilin Pavilion to purchase some Hell Pills. Because according to Chen Liu, Xiuhuan robbed him for wanting their Hell Pill.

At midnight, the bell rang loudly and shortly afterwards, the cell door of the dungeon immediately opened.
Xiuhuan who sat cross-legged while closing his eyes. Immediately stood up and watched, where the prisoners went.
“Is it already midnight up there. Cih, what a bad luck. Night or day it was difficult to tell the difference here,” grumbled Xiuhuan followed the other prisoners to the dining room.
“Hey, handsome boy! You've decided which gang to join?”
Xiuhuan looked back. “Two bangka! I'm the new boss here! From now on you have been demoted?” sahut Xiuhuan with a grinning smile.
“Bigger! How dare you be disrespectful to Chairman Wang Pan!”
Guards Wang Pan immediately took out his Spirit Sword and prepared to slash at the calm-looking Xiuhuan, not distracted by their threat.
“Hold! It's not time we move. Let the other gang who taught him manners on the old one,” Wang Pan interrupted with a faint smile. He also looked calm and went past Xiuhuan.
“Looks like that grandfather wasn't a regular criminal. He looked calm and calculating. Unlike the big man in front of my cell earlier,” muttered Xiuhuan walked towards the dining room.
The prisoners entered a large room, before entering they were given a plate containing one dried bread, one glass of water and porridge that was made of nothing. The shape is similar to animal waste.
“Fucking Chen Clan Fundamentals. They have violated HAM. This is, pork food, not worth eating by the most handsome humans in this world,” grumbled Xiuhuan immediately ate the dry bread.
All the prisoners' eyes immediately fell on Xiuhuan who ate his dry bread.
“Hey, you never saw a man as handsome as me, did you?” xiuhuan asked as he walked towards a bench of sharpened stone.
The prisoners were further shocked when Xiuhuan sat on the bench. Which turned out to belong to the head of the Skull Gang, the large man whose cell was in front of the Cell where Xiuhuan was detained.
“Hei, brother! New guy,” whispered a prisoner to Xiuhuan. “Maybe up there, you are a powerful Swordsman. But below, there are unwritten rules. That the new boy should be the son of one of the four bosses of the lord of this dungeon. If you're a hotshot, just feel the consequences,” said the man again reminding Xiuhuan.
Xiuhuan smiled widely. “This belongs to whose throne?” xiuhuan asked not afraid in the slightest, he remained with his smile that made people want to slap his face.
“I-this belongs to the Skull Gang, let's get away from there, before he comes here,” said the man again reminded Xiuhuan.
“Time above, are you a criminal or criminalized? How weak are you mentally,” Xiuhuan's taunts.
The man felt arrogant, had been warned not to get into trouble. Uh, Xiuhuan instead mocked him.
“As far as you are! I'm just reminding you, if you want to join one of the gangs, join our gang before it's too late. Our boss is very kind and enforces other prisoners like families. He's the one over there!”
The man pointed at the female Swordsman with his back snake tattoo.
“One sexy boss of yours? Just this time I saw the clothes whose back was visible,” Xiuhuan said with a wide smile.
The man hurriedly left Xiuhuan, as he said the forbidden words in that dungeon.
Suddenly Xiuhuan saw thousands of naked beautiful women surrounding him. For a few breaths he was exposed to the illusion. It was fortunate that Xiuhuan had already faced this kind of move several times. Moreover, her son, Mei Yin also has this charm style.
As the illusions of the beautiful women disappeared, suddenly Xiuhuan had seen the Skull Guild Leader had been in front of him who was ready to slash Xiuhuan's neck.
