After Yan Liqiang came out from the main hall where Sun Bingchen resided and handed over Liu Quanzhong and Tu Chunyun to the guards to watch over them, Liang Yijie was in his line of sight.

When Yan Liqiang saw Liang Yijie, he quietly pulled him to one side and inquired in a low voice, “Brother Liang, why are there so many Wanderers inside the manor now? When I arrived, there were only a few. I was startled and thought that something had happened to the manor!”

“Don’t worry. These Wanderers who came to the manor were organized by Lord Sun a long time ago. They stand with us…” Liang Yijie explained, smilingly.

Yan Liqiang was shocked, “Could it be that Lord Sun dispatched those Wanderers here when King Cobra was causing trouble in Pingxi City?”

“Of course. Did you really think that Lord Sun came to Pingxi Prefecture without any preparations? A large group of Wanderers was coincidentally gathering together at Pingxi City during that time, so Lord Sun decided to make use of this opportunity and dispatched a few Wanderers here. Those Wanderers gathered a lot of incriminating evidence against Ye Tiancheng during these few days. And because of the conclusive evidence, Lord Sun was able to make his move against him.”

“How come the Wanderers are willing to listen to Lord Sun’s orders?”

“Hahaha, well, you will know if you stay by Lord Sun’s side for a few more days. Being a Wanderer is just an identity for those people. They have another identity, and that is being a disciple of the Wise Ruler Sect. Lord Sun has an extraordinary relationship with the Wise Ruler Sect. If he wants the disciples of the Wise Ruler Sect to help him do something, one word is enough to make them move!” Liang Yijie seemed cheerful. He kept on patting on Yan Liqiang’s shoulder forcefully and gazing at him with admiration as he explained, “Your performance was good at the main hall just now. I thought you wouldn’t dare to do anything at first, but when Ye Tiancheng charged toward Lord Sun, you were the first one to retaliate and clashed with him without fear. This is what an attendant of Lord Sun’s should do. Lord Sun didn’t pick you for nothing!”

Yan Liqiang scratched his head and chuckled, “I didn’t think too much just now. It’s just when I saw Ye Tiancheng about to make his move against Lord Sun, I couldn’t stand aside and watch it happen…”

“As long as Ye Tiancheng and the main party members are taken down, Pingxi City will never drown in chaos again!” After the previous experience, Liang Yijie’s attitude toward Yan Liqiang was heightened to the point where he became much kinder to him. In a sense, he treated Yan Liqiang as one of his people.

“Brother Liang, I heard that Ye Tiancheng is one of the three Ye of the Ye Clan in Gan Province. If Lord Sun takes down Ye Tiancheng in Pingxi City, will the Ye Clan be willing to easily dismiss this matter? You should already know that the Ye Clan in Gan Province, especially the one in Weiyuan Prefecture, isn’t one that ordinary clans can be compared to. This… it might be fine inside Pingxi City, but will a riot break out in Weiyuan Prefecture…?” Yan Liqiang asked, half-concerned and half-curious about the situation. After all, Sun Bingchen and Liang Yijie were not Gan Province locals. They didn’t have to worry too much about whatever they did. On the other hand, Yan Liqiang’s home was in Gan Province. Everything he did today had pretty much affirmed his thoughts for Sun Bingchen and Liang Yijie and subsequently gained their trust. However, in other people’s perspectives, he had hopped onto a pirate ship, destined to fight with the Ye Clan to the end in the future. Even if he only considered it for the sake of his father, Yan Liqiang would have to make preparations beforehand first.

“Lord Sun has chosen to patrol the northwest region this time with the purpose to go against the Ye Clan. The Ye Clan was being selfish for colluding with the Shatu people and secretly did things that could incur the indignation of the people. They are already considered cancerous for the Gan Province and the empire, and they must be eradicated. Don’t worry, Lord Sun will take down Ye Tiancheng in the city tonight. Something will happen to Provincial Governor Lei Sitong of Gan Province today as well. The Ye Clan isn’t an opponent of the imperial court no matter how powerful they become!” Liang Yijie said to Yan Liqiang with a murderous tone.

“That’s good…” Yan Liqiang let out a long sigh of relief.

Yan Liqiang could only sigh at the thought of his last encounter. This butterfly effect that he created was too horrifying. Last time, even if he was dead, the Ye Clan was still fine for a few years and Ye Tiancheng remained as the Prefectural Governor for Pingxi County. However, he was able to survive this time. From the moment Ye Xiao was beaten to death by the civilians that night, everything had changed.

“You’ve worked hard today, Liqiang. There’s nothing more now. If you feel tired, you should just go and rest…”

“I’m fine on my part as well. I can’t sleep even if I want to. Let me help Brother Liang and guard these prisoners together!”

Yan Liqiang and the others were just participants throughout the entire process as Sun Bingchen took down Ye Tiancheng and secured peace at Pingxi City. In other words, they were just witnesses of certain events at the right time.

During the entire process, he was only lucky to witness the events unfold and he contributed an insignificant effort to the cause. He had no part in the decision-making process, nor had he any irreplaceable use or value. Even when Sun Bingchen and Liang Yijie kindly asked him to rest, he still couldn’t understand some of the things lingering in his mind.

When he read about novels regarding traversing time in his past life, the main characters who traveled to another world would always be able to massacre every army with ease. Those characters from the other world would always seem like they had low IQs and would always be casually played by the main character. However, after he truly returned to life in this world this time, he finally realized that he was the biggest fool of them all for treating others like one.

Even if Yan Liqiang already knew that his intelligence was incomparable to Einstein’s, he was still considered to be a smart person. However, even with his current intelligence, he was only able to slightly understand what had happened after thinking about it for an entire night.

And because he finally understood the situation, Yan Liqiang was truly able to feel deep respect toward this Patrol Inspector named Sun Bingchen.

Yan Liqiang felt that Sun Bingchen had been putting up a smokescreen for Ye Tiancheng to confuse him from the moment he recruited him as his attendant.

His capability may have been appreciated by Sun Bingchen to a certain extent, but Sun Bingchen did not recruit him solely based on the feelings of appreciation.

If he were Ye Tiancheng and he saw a Patrol Inspector coming to Pingxi City to freely recruit a young man born in Pingxi City as his attendant, what would he think of it? There were two possible thoughts: the first one was that Sun Bingchen had very few people that he could actually use, and the second was that Sun Bingchen was entirely unwary of Ye Tiancheng. If Sun Bingchen were to actually do something to Ye Tiancheng at Pingxi City this time, then it would be a bad move to spontaneously recruit a young man whom he had no idea about in Pingxi City after meeting him only once. Was Sun Bingchen not afraid that this young man might possibly be an acquaintance of Ye Tiancheng’s?

It was believed that this was the exact move that allowed Ye Tiancheng to drop his guard against Sun Bingchen.

Meanwhile, this wasn’t the only way to stun Ye Tiancheng. There were many other ways to do so.

During those days, Sun Bingchen openly met up with those officers…

Sun Bingchen’s quick inspection tour around Pingxi City…

And even his decision to allow his accompanying bodyguards and honor guards to clean up some things before making his move against Ye Tiancheng…

With the release of all these smokescreens, Ye Tiancheng had no choice but to be confused by Sun Bingchen. And because these preparations had been set up beforehand, Ye Tiancheng was defenseless when he came to the manor on the night they had planned to make their real move against him. Ye Tiancheng had no idea that Sun Bingchen would lay his hands on him.

But in truth, those Wanderers who stood together with Sun Bingchen had already arrived at Pingxi City prior to Sun Bingchen’s arrival and they had secretly set up all the preparations, weaving a trap to snare Ye Tiancheng.

Even the maid who fought with Ye Tiancheng had already lurked into this manor beforehand, waiting for the moment to take down Ye Tiancheng in one fell swoop. The informers that Ye Tiancheng had concealed within this manor had instead prevented him from seeing through the real danger lurking ahead.

Sun Bingchen did not take action tonight based on a spur of the moment, but on premeditation. He had already built a tacit understanding and coordination with Provincial Governor Lei Sitong of Gan Province beforehand.

The distance between Pingxi City and Gan Provincial City was quite large. It would require two days to send a message between two places even with a fast steed. Naturally, it would require time for Sun Bingchen and Lei Sitong to discuss and coordinate their plans in order to reach an understanding. The said time required to wrap up the agreement was believed to be during the days when Sun Bingchen had a quick tour around Pingxi City.

Moreover, this wasn’t the part that Yan Liqiang admired the most. It was Sun Bingchen’s control and confidence toward Huangfu Qianqi that Yan Liqiang admired the most. He knew that once he had taken down Ye Tiancheng, Huangfu Qianqi would definitely take his side and quickly diffuse the situation in Pingxi City. This was the reason why Sun Bingchen was brave enough to bring one hundred or more men to Pingxi City to take down the Prefectural Governor.

Everything was tranquil and in harmony when nothing happened. Once he made his move, all hell broke loose in a thunderous manner!

To be honest, Yan Liqiang could never keep up this kind of method, strategy, judgment, and decision-making ability even if he had the experiences of his past two lives.

Yan Liqiang and Liang Yijie guarded the courtyard for the night. He kept standing guard while thinking about the past events.

Once in a while, those who had been captured would be sent to this courtyard for them to keep watch.

Some of them were sent by the Wanderers while some were sent by the soldiers dispatched by Huangfu Qianqi.

The situation in Pingxi City was finally calm when dawn arrived. The number of prisoners in their courtyard had increased to a few dozen. Ye Tiancheng and his gang had been cleaned out entirely. All of Pingxi City had completely fallen into Sun Bingchen’s hands. The first announcement had already been posted out to the public…

Two hours after dawn, Sun Bingchen asked someone to inform Yan Liqiang and Liang Yijie to deliver these prisoners to the jail in the city…
