Cao Shan set down the medical text in his hands, his expression grim.
Shanghai is not within the Western Territory War Department's jurisdiction!
Yet now they were meddling in Shanghai's affairs, and he was thoroughly displeased.
"Patriarch, what should we do now?" a Cao Family guard asked immediately upon seeing Cao Shan's expression.
Cao Shan mulled it over for a moment before speaking. "First, find the location of Nightingale and the man she took. I have my own plans."
"Yes, Patriarch," the Cao Family guard replied, then departed swiftly.
Cao Shan picked up the medical text again, but he could no longer focus on his studies.
'The Western Territory War Department actually dares to interfere in the Imperial City's affairs,' he thought. 'This is no small matter.'
He had to get to the bottom of this before deciding on his next move.
「Midday.」
