The assembly had to come to an end with sect leader Jin promising to give further details about the marriage proposal when next he calls for the assembly of sect leaders . In a way, Jin Ruimin was relieved as this would reduce any undue pressure that came with expectation from the other leaders regarding the head teacher of his sect agreeing to marry the fox princess . At the time when the assembly was held, Jin Caihe had not given his decision, therefore if the GuBaiJin sect leader had blurted it out without the other coming to agreement with it, that could have caused Jin Ruimin to further lose face among the other sect leaders .

Neither of the sect leaders stayed back for food and drink, each returned to their sect thinking of what took place at the assembly .

Jin Ruimin had to secretly seek out the spies that he kept on the YuanLi sect, by sending a bird to give out a message to gather at their secret location that night .

Moving with great stealth and agility, the sect leader passed through the barrier out and scalded through the wall of the GuBaiJin sect in a cloak of black .

It was at an inn in a town not too far from the sect, the innkeeper being a spy for Jin Ruimin, did not ask any question as he led him up the stairs to a room that was reserved for him .

The man looked much older than Jin Ruimin, one would say he was at the most sixty years of age which was an almost twenty year difference between him and the sect leader, he wore a plain blue robe with dark boots and his hair was wrapped in a blue cap . Beards and mustache had become almost completely white and a his face that looked withered with age . Although he was showing signing of having a crooked back, he was still considered one of the fasted spies under the control of the GuBaiJin sect leader . None of the spies were allowed to have a name and each responded to distinct whistle by their leader .

The man pulled the door open on the seventh room to the left facing the stairs, while balancing the paper lamp on the other hand . This was specifically chosen should Jin Ruimin ever had the need to leave quickly without raising too much suspicion .

"This is your room Sir . Enjoy your night with us at Taishang inn . "

" . . . "

The inn keeper could not refer to Jin Ruimin by his title, thereby choosing to improvise with the way he addressed him . Also, the sect leader could not say much, instead he nodded in gratitude and walked into the brightly lit room . The innkeeper quietly closed the door closed firmly behind the leader of the GuBaiJin sect .

That was when Jin Ruimin took off the hood to reveal his face to the man that had been waiting for him in the room .

"Greetings Sect Leader Jin, I've been able to uncover the occurrence at YuanLi sect . "

The man took off his hood and the face that looked back at Jin Ruimin was those of General Hei . No one would have believed that the GuBaiJin sect leader on the outside looked as though he was for righteousness, but instead he was dining with those from the demon realm . None knew that it was staged, the two took a seat from each other in the inn's room with a table of wine set in front of them .

"What is Demon Lord Zhurong up to?"

"How sharp of you to be able to tell that it was Demon Lord Zhurong pulling the strings at YuanLi sect!"

There was mild inquiry in the voice of Jin Ruimin, while those of General Hei answered with one of chilly amusement .
