As it turns out,
Le Yu not entering the Wang Haigong Mansion was the right decision.
Moments after Huyan Jue went in, two middle-aged men walked up to the entrance. One had an iron sword with a grass rope at his waist, while the other had both hands in his pockets. Both had messy hair and stubbly beards, reeking of alcohol and burping drunkenly, clearly having started drinking early in the morning.
But as soon as they were seen, the Linhai Army stepped back. With every step they took, Linhai retreated as well, always keeping a distance of over seven steps from them.
Le Yu didn't move, instead clasping his fists and asking, "Are you two Mr. Copper and Mr. Iron? Old Liu often speaks of you."
"Old Liu?" The middle-aged man with the grass rope was a bit confused, while the other smacked his lips and said, "You mean Old Liu? Wasn't he the one who borrowed money from you at the Xiangxue Sea and never paid it back, remember?"
