Chapter 260 - Second Encounter (I)
Ye Tian Yun needed to plan out whom he needed to target.
However, he first needed to know who the actual participants of the secret mission were.
So this put Ye Tian Yun one step back because now, he needed to get the list.
'Should I disguise myself as Yuan Shuchun?' Ye Tian Yun thought of a bold idea.
But then he just shook his head and rejected it.
Disguising as Yuan Shuchun wasn't hard - he just needed to kill her.
The real problem would be to survive after he had done the deed.
Yuan Shuchun was not a simple girl. She was entangled in many schemes and plots, and if Ye Tian Yun were to disguise himself as her, even though it would just be for about a month, it wouldn't be long before someone suspects him and the truth comes out.
'Hmm,' Ye Tian Yun resumed his meal.
Even though the problem was half solved, the food was now getting cold.
'This food is really good.' He couldn't help but appreciate the delicacy.
Turning his head towards the maid, he asked, "Who cooked this food?"
The maid came forward and replied, "Senior Brother, my Master cooked this meal."
"Your master?" This surprised him a bit.
Since when have the owners cooked a meal? Usually, they would hire cooks and other staff.
"The owner of this place is also the cook?" He asked.
The maid shook his head, "No, Senior Brother. Cooking is just a hobby for our Young Master. He rarely cooks."
"Oh? I guess it's my lucky day. The food is really good."
"Thank you, Senior Brother." The maid's smile brightened and became more genuine after hearing the compliment for her Young Master.
"What's the name of your young master? He must be pretty famous if he could cook like this just as a hobby." Ye Tian Yun couldn't help asking.
The maid's smile became a bit reserved as she replied, "Senior Brother, my Young Master prefers to remain low key and doesn't like much attention. He would be very happy to know that you like his cooking."
"Very well, I have no problem with him if he doesn't wish to introduce himself. Though, I do hope for one thing - the regular cooks at this place should also be able to cook a decent meal because I might become your regular customer."
The maid replied, "Thank you for your patronage, Senior Brother."
Ye Tian Yun nodded and didn't say anything else for the rest of the meal.
After paying for the food, Ye Tian Yun got up and moved towards the exit.
Just then, he heard someone call out, "Senior Brother, please wait."
Confused, he turned around only to find the maid from earlier coming towards him.
"Senior Brother," The maid said as she came to a halt in front of him, "Young Master has called for you."
"Me?" Ye Tian Yun asked in confusion.
"Alright, let's go." Ye Tian Yun agreed after a moment of thought.
He wanted to distract his mind from brainstorming to solve his problem, and this was the perfect excuse.
The maid nodded and gestured at him, "Please follow me, Senior Brother."
Soon, both of them were heading towards the Second Floor of the restaurant.
Stepping inside the floor, Ye Tian Yun noticed that this floor appeared more well decorated and exquisitely designed than the first one.
He couldn't help but ask the maid, "Anything special about this floor?"
The maid replied with a slight smile, "Indeed, Senior Brother. This floor is for the Core Disciples, and sometimes even Elders dine here."
"Oh," Ye Tian Yun nodded and continued to follow behind.
The Second Floor was empty; only two maids stood at the entrance to the next floor.
There weren't many Core Disciples in the sect, and Elders usually wouldn't have time to relax, so it was natural that this floor would be empty for a lot of times.
Ye Tian Yun wasn't surprised at this.
Continuing to move ahead, they had soon entered the Third Floor.
To Ye Tian Yun's surprise, this floor was much simpler and almost had no decoration.
There were some cupboards at the side and a table at the end of the room.
There was a big chair on one side of the table, turned towards the wall - which was not a wall.
And on the other side of the table were two smaller chairs.
This floor was more like a huge office.
Ye Tian Yun continued to follow the maid inside and took a seat at her gesture.
However, his eyes were focused somewhere else.
He stared at the opposite wall.
And the reason why this wasn't actually a wall was that he could see through this wall!
He could see the buildings and the bustling First Peak's base with disciples moving from one place to another.
Some chatting, few arguing, and many were just passing by.
"Interesting, isn't it?"
A voice called out from behind.
Ye Tian Yun nodded his head but continued to stare at the wall.
The voice was familiar, but he was more interested in the wall in front of him.
"Is this an array?" Ye Tian Yun asked.
"No, it's not." The voice replied.
Ye Tian Yun was a bit confused at this.
When he entered the restaurant, he remembered that he didn't see any mirror wall on the top floor - instead, it was a solid brick wall, covered with exquisite design and painting of a dancing peacock.
But from the inside, one could see through this wall.
So if it wasn't due to an array, then how was this possible?
Sensing Ye Tian Yun's curiosity, the one who had replied to him earlier stepped forward.
Ye Tian Yun finally turned his head towards this person at the inclosing steps - he wanted to know who this Young Master was whose interest he had piqued.
