Everything ended without a hitch in Jin's shop. There was even a slight boost to revenue thanks to the stunt he pulled during Xiong Da's fight. It was then that he realised he had forgotten something.

"Yun, did Lai Fu come by to claim his fishing instance I promised him?" Jin began to close his shop and decided to return home to do some housework after also remembering all the clothes he had yet to wash.

"He actually came by and asked if he could come by next week instead. Apparently, the notice was too short for his friends to rush down and they needed some more preparation time." Yun yawned as she walked back with Jin.

"Ah, I am not surprised. By the way, how is the lottery going? Anyone manage to grab the big prize yet?" Jin asked as they walked back together.

"Not really, but at least there were some claims and they were quite satisfied with the lottery considering it's somewhat a 'free' gift for the things they bought from the district," Yun said but suddenly she felt distressed.

"What's wrong? A headache?" Jin noticed the sudden change in her expression.

"No, it's the System. Someone is trying to break into your shop but do not worry too much." Yun recovered from her weird headache and told Jin about it.

"Why didn't the System just tell me directly? I am still holding my phone. Also, do you want to go back and take a look at the culprit?" Oddly, Jin did not feel any panic at all since Yun had just said that there was nothing to worry about.

"Maybe it feels that it would be more natural to announce it through me than through your phone." Yun gave a weak smile but got serious as she later realised they were being followed too.

"Why do I feel that the store break in and being followed by some obvious people is kind of connected?" Jin casually said as he turned around and took out Bam in Katana form. Yun did not do anything for the moment and continued to stay alert.

Multiple men appeared from the shadows and they were all well dressed. Black suit, leather shoes and sunglasses despite the fact that it was night time. Perhaps the moonlight was too blinding for them.

"Break in? Did I order you to do that Ku Wai?" A female voice was heard behind the group of men as they made way for her to go through. Jin later saw that she looked fairly young but she was actually in a wheelchair with a familiar looking person pushing her through the crowd.

"No, Princess. I did not do that nor did I order that. Do you want me to send people to investigate?" Ku Wai asked politely.

"It's fine, the break-in attempt is under control." Jin blurted out, which caused each and every of the black suits to take their pistols out and aimed at him. However, just a gentle rise of the lady's hand made them lower their guns.

"I am sorry...Jin, was it?" The lady spoke as Ku Wai pushed her wheelchair forward where there was a street light that illuminated her beauty that was hidden from the shadows. Her facial physical features were comparable to Yun's fairly strict but appealing elegance. Her hair was long and slightly curly at the edge of her hair and she was wearing a tight henley shirt which revealed her slim figure.

"Yes, I am." Jin nodded and sheath his sword as Yun had her arms folded.

"I am sorry for the sudden disruption of your daily life but let's just say I would like a favour from you even though we had barely met." The lady got straight to the point before even saying her name.

"Before anything, can I ask for your name and why do we need to talk under such circumstances?" Jin asked but it seemed everyone except for Ku Wai was irritated. Only a glance from Ku Wai allowed the rest of the black suits back down from their usual aggression.

"Ah, I apologise! Sometimes I get too preoccupied with things that I forget simple stuff but I am surprised that you do not know of me. I am Hu Yang Ling, the youngest daughter of the head of the Royal Zodiac Tiger Sect." Yang Ling said.

"Oh, no wonder you wished to meet me this way." Jin realised that it must have been hard for important figures of the country to walk around peacefully without being targeted.

"Firstly, thank you for sparing Ku Wai. He might not be the strongest nor most talented in my sect but he is a very loyal person that has protected me in many instances. It would indeed have been disappointing if I had lost him. Also, I presume I also need to thank you for the panda photo that you gave Ku Wai. I wanted a picture of a baby panda on a whim and did not expect Ku Wai to really try and obtain it so I thank you for doing the job for him." Yang Ling said.

"However, I came here to do more than just thank you." Yang Ling became serious as she beckoned Jin to follow her to her car for a private conversation.

"I will return home first and help you with your laundry since obviously, you do not have time to do so," Yun spoke like a true mother as Jin put his hands together and said sorry before following Yang Ling to her car.

"Your wife?" Yang Ling asked casually, hoping to ease the tension between them before the serious conversation started.

"No. Just a ...close relative." Jin could not possibly say that Yun was his mother, especially since they had the means to dig into his past.

"I see." Yang Ling seemed relieved for some particular reason before the black suits opened the SUV. Jin saw that the interior of the SUV was styled like a limousine. Seats at the back of the SUV were facing each other and the seats were clearly made of high quality material. He then noticed that Yang Ling being on a wheelchair was not an act. Ku Wai was assisting her into the SUV.

The moment the SUV doors closed, they suddenly started to move, which Jin made realise he had been tricked into entering the car. "Jin, I assure you that this is not a kidnapping." Yang Ling tried to explain the urgency they were in but it was not helping her case that everything was pointing to a kidnapping. Jin seemed like he was ready to fight back.

"Calm down Jin. I swear on the honour of my name, I promise that Princess really does need your help." Ku Wai bowed his head a little to show the sincerity of Yang Ling's request. Jin calmed down before he folded his arms.

"What do you want from me?" Jin's words were short and direct.

"I know that you are a dungeon supplier. I have even sent people to your shop to spy on you ever since Ku Wai returned from the hospital and we found out how he was defeated. Those monsters that are in the dungeon... they are too unique, to the point that I doubt the reports delivered by my men." Yang Ling started to praise Jin.

"Please get to the point," Jin said.

"Well, although its true that the selection of your monsters is still... erm... lacking in variety, it is justifiable since your cultivation is lower than Ku Wai's. But still, I have to admit that I even if I have dabbled in dimensional instance technology before, have no way to recreate what you have created. Even the dungeon suppliers that the Royal Zodiac have contracted were unable to do what you did." Yang Ling babbled on, which made Jin slightly uncomfortable.

"So... I want you to create a dungeon for me." Yang Ling leaned forward as she felt very excited saying it.
